Oh no, I have not tried that method yet -

In Flash, there are too many ways to skin a cat sometimes, and you get
accustom to using certain methods of doing things.  I was aware of that
method, but never used it before.

Using V2 Components, is using the setSize() Function, the preferred way
to set the size??

And yes, once I got the Accordion to size properly, the plan was to
implement code inside of each Child MovieClip - to resize themselves
accordingly.

Which does raise another question, in which I am sure you can answer:

On which events should I listen for, in order to trigger the Resize
Functions contained within each Child MovieClip (not to mention, WHERE
should that code reside)?  Since the Accordion Contents can change based
on a multitude of variables, I really can't code my Resize Events for
the Children, within my main Code Block residing in Root.  I need each
MovieClip Child, to contain their own logic - independent from the main
app.

I am using Class Files for each of my MovieClips - and it's in the Class
File itself, where I want to listen for the Resize Events of the
Accordion, so I can properly move things around inside the Accordion
Children.

Could you clarify all those things for me?

Thanks Eric :)

Mike

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Accordion Sizing Weirdness

in your onResize - have you tried setSize( w, h ) yet?

also - I am using an accordion right now - some children contain
listboxes, datagrids, etc. One cool thing I am doing is when the
accordion is resizing, i am resizing the contents inside the children
too - nice and tight.
