Full screen splitter control

Question

I'm using cl_gui_splitter_container to display two ALV grids on one screen. Currently I put the splitter inside a custom container with a fixed size, but what I want to do is use the whole available screen.
When creating a single ALV grid, I can use screen0 as parent to use the full screen:
  CREATE OBJECT go_grid EXPORTING i_parent = cl_gui_container=>screen0.
However for a splitter I can't get this to work, not with default_screen instead of screen0 either.
Does anyone have working code where a splitter uses the full screen?

Hi Filip.,
Create a custom container., and give what ever width and height u want., refer the below snippet.,
DATA:  ob_custom                   TYPE REF TO cl_gui_custom_container,
             ob_split1                   TYPE REF TO cl_gui_easy_splitter_container,  
             ob_grid1                    TYPE REF TO cl_gui_alv_grid,
             ob_grid2                    TYPE REF TO cl_gui_alv_grid,
* This will create a container
  CREATE OBJECT ob_custom
    EXPORTING
      container_name = 'CONTAINER'.     " this is the custom container name in screen
* This spit the container OB_CUSTOM into two
  CREATE OBJECT ob_split1
    EXPORTING
      parent      = ob_custom
      orientation = cl_gui_easy_splitter_container=>orientation_horizontal.
*Left side ALV Container
  CREATE OBJECT ob_grid1
    EXPORTING
      i_parent = ob_split1->top_left_container.
*Right Side ALV Container
  CREATE OBJECT ob_grid2
    EXPORTING
      i_parent = ob_split1->bottom_right_container.
then call ob_grid1->set_table_for_first_display and ob_grid2->set_table_for_first_display
hope this will help u.,
revert if u need some more clarifications..
Thanks & Regards
