Thanks Alex, but for your description seems like I could put a Group or a Container as a initalView, so I think View should have something more distinctive to make users use it instead of other aggregator.
In the other hand, regarding Harbs comment, I agree that "royale" is more the Application (in html is the html "body") since to me the top level is Application not View, and I asume that you can have multiple views like in Flex Mobile, so this views will be swappable vía a navigator bar or similar (again like in flex mobile). I assume this is still not done in Royale, and we will do as we have some time to invest here, so for me a view seems more like a "piece" of the application, in other words: A view can be the login form in an application with two textfields, a login button, some links to remember password...etc... then this view will make the user goes to some other view with a menu or navigation bar that makes he/she able to switch to other views in application. For this reason View for me is one of the views, and typeNames="royale" seems not appropriate. If you all agree we can change it a make View: typeNames = "View", although to make things coherent I'd left Application typeNames="Application" 2018-03-27 22:16 GMT+02:00 Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com.invalid>: > -Group is like Flex Group.
