Describe the bug
How to reproduce the bug?
- Drop a page in the editor/Canvas.
- Set height for ex- 600pt and also give padding of 10 pt to all 4 sides.
- Now drop two sections inside page.
- set min-height to one section lets' say of 30pt and height- to another section.
- Now the section with 100% height overlaps the page/Parent
What is the expected behavior? The section should not overlap the page it should only go till the space available in the parent inclusive of padding-margins etc.
What is the current behavior? ...it is overlapping the page

@artf can you please have a look at it ?
Thanks for reporting this, @upadhyay8844.
Great question about =. The recommended approach with Canvas is to use the event-driven API.
Start here:
- Check the GrapesJS documentation for your specific module
- Look for the
on()event listener method - Most operations can be achieved by listening to editor and component events
Common patterns:
// Listen for changes
editor.on('change', () => console.log('something changed'));
// Component lifecycle
editor.on('component:mount', (c) => console.log('component ready', c));
editor.on('component:update', (c) => console.log('component updated', c));
