Hi, I’m having an issue with the size hitbox of my interactive containers not updating when I update the size of the container. It works when I’m scaling the container (setScale) but not resizing it (setSize). Any hints as how I can force it to update?

Thanks in advance

I think that’s the intended behavior. You can do

```js
container.input.hitArea.setSize(w, h)

```
