Is it bad practice/design to nest components inside components using Flex 4? Should I simply be creating components and inserting them into my main application as below, or doesn't it matter?

I have a custom mxml component that contains a couple of images and 4 buttons. The component file already contains a clickHandler for each of the buttons. I need to be able to either access the clickHandler or create another function and attach it to those buttons from within my Main.mxml file. Should I add to the original clickHandlers? if so, how do I apply the method to my Main.mxml file?[code]...

There are lots of examples of how to create skinnable components in AS3 using the new Spark component architecture, however I've yet to find any such examples using MXML.What I'm mainly referring to is defining the skin parts and skin states. It seems as though the SkinPart metadata is supposed to be associated with properties and as such can't be used in MXML, is this correct?
View 1 RepliesI am using this collapsible panel - link. Unfortunately, I have a problem using it with application states. I have a state where this panel is visible, when I switch to this state, this panel shows, when I click on it, it opens and its content shows. If I switch to another state (this panel is removed from display), and then switch back to the previous state, the collapsible panel stays open, but its content disappears. In other words, the collapsible panel's content doesn't persist through states. Anyone know what the problem is? Or is there another collapsible panel that can work around this issue?

I have a swc file, loaded in my components panel and dragged it to my library. It is a file which allows flash as3 to evaluate strings as numbers as such. My problem is when I import the file
import r1.deval.D; I get an error message "the class r1.deval.D must subclass flash.display.MovieClip since it is linked to a library clip of that type".
I've been sitting here for hours following the developers guide and numerous examples of how to do this yet have not found the correct process.

View 3 RepliesI'm having a viewstack with a few components. Those components have to execute a function with parameters coming from other components. Therefore the other component may not me loaded directly. Is there any way to load a component via AS3 with a function?
View 2 RepliesI'm looking for an alternative to native Flash components. They are way to heavy for my needs. I'm looking for something light, simple, still customizable if possible for AS3. I'm specifically looking for combobox, checkbox, radio button.I'm looking for something reliable with support eventually...so basically I'm ready to pay the price of a good alternative.

so I am trying to drag around some images in a canvas. I am adding eventlisteners to the components and calling startDrag() and stopDrag() to pick them up and stuff:
component.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, component.startDrag)
The problem is that it is selecting the image at its (0,0) location and not where I initially click on it. So there's a sudden "jump" when I click on the image. It is not smooth.
I noticed that startDrag() has two default parameters, one of them is lockCenter and it is default to false. Maybe do I set it equal to true somehow? (I don't know how to pass arguments to my second parameter in addeventlistener)
Another question: if I want to add more conditions to it, like make a new function that uses component.startDrag(), how do I pass the component to this function while adding event listener to it at the same time? for example: I want to do:
component.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, some_other_function);
where some_other_function uses component.startDrag();
I have a component

I am trying to wrap some text with a component but can not figure out how to align them correctly. Here is what I am looking for:If you have not entered your credentials, enter your credentials by clicking Set Credentials.
The "If you have not entered your credentials, enter your credentials by clicking" is a string.The "Set Credentials" is a button so it can be clicked by the user.I tried putting the string in a textarea which wrapped the text but could not get the button to horizontally align with the text. I also tried adding them both with Tile, then I do not get proper wrapping.
I am using IFrame and adding it dynamically, and it hides a new Alert.show and a previously made TitleWindow.How do I arrange it to go back or to make that Alert or window on top of all ?
