Alright, I didn't see the runtime error (the environment suppresses them, but
try/catch works fine:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
flash.display::[EMAIL PROTECTED] to mx.core.IUIComponent.

It does the same thing regardless of type flash.diplay.Sprite or
flash.display.MovieClip. "FormatExpandable" is a subclass of mx:Canvas

Subject: RE: [AFFUG Discuss] drawing colored rectangle movieclips in Flex
I'm trying this:
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
this.addChild( mc );
mc.x = 50;
mc.y = 50;
mc.graphics.beginFill(0x0000FF);
mc.graphics.drawRect( 0, 0, 500, 500 );
mc.graphics.endFill();
It works flawlessly in Flash CS3 though...

var channelBar5 = new Sprite();
channelBar5.graphics.beginFill(0xFFFFFF);
channelBar5.graphics.drawRect(27,-20,5,30);
channelBar5.graphics.endFill();
addChild(channelBar5);
