Hi Alex,
I'll try to see how things are done in MXRoyale's ADG for columns. Really
the problem right now is in that concrete case. I'm sure there's some way
to do it but while I'm using flex box already as you suggest for many
things, in this case I need to do calculations, since all is based on how
users will configure the columns via mxml with a mix (or not) of pixels and
percentages.
And because you are using display="flex", not having the child columns also be
CSS compliant with the width is probably causing the pain. That's what I saw
with MXRoyale.
You may be able to calculate the numbers, but then the columns will not be
responsive as the "flex" container changes size. You will have to detect that
and recompute.
If you instead using the weighting system that "flex" children use, I think you
will have less pain and more responsive-ness. Users might gladly give up on
the old Flex percentWidth overloading in favor of the weighting system to get
that responsiveness.
My 2 cents,
