For anyone interested, I just found a solution, I placed #secondList into a table element:
and added the css decorator visibility: visible / collapse
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<secondListComponent></>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
according to mozilla:
For rows, columns, column groups, and row groups, the row(s) or column(s) are hidden and the space they would have occupied is removed (as if display: none were applied to the column/row of the table). However, the size of other rows and columns is still calculated as though the cells in the collapsed row(s) or column(s) are present.
