Instanced scene does not render properly in VBoxContainer

Question

I’m running into an issue with trying to render a instanced scene within a VBoxContainer. It chooses the middle of the scene’s content as the top of the “box” to render in the VBox, meaning that the top half scene is hidden when rendering from the top. You can see this in the screenshots below.

I have set the size properties of the top level control node in the instanced scene, but no matter what it is it doesn’t change anything.

The VBox is also in a ScrollContainer, but this behavior happens whether its inside or outside of the ScrollContainer.

What it looks like in the editor

Figured it out. I had to set the custom_minimum_size flag on the the Control node in the Instanced Scene.

I had seen to set the minimum_size elsewhere, but could not actually find that option on the inspector (I had the window too small) nor in the documentation.

For future reference for anyone, it is here:
