I am wondering if it is possible to trigger the datatable scrolling behaviour based on a parent div's size.  I have seen that the datatable exhibits this behaviour through use of the HTML attributes data-mdb-max-width and data-mdb-max-height (as documented here) although this does not seem to be able to be set dynamically.
Is there a way to cause the datatable's max size to adjust according to something dynamic such as the containing div size?
Many thanks!

Works great, thanks very much for that! Would be nice to have the height adjust dynamically too, but understand if this is non-trivial.

The solution that I presented to you adjusts the size to the size of the parent element. 
In this case, it is a container that has a max-height: 200px. So if the size of the parent element changes, the datatable should adapt to the new sizes.
