Hi there, I would say MM ones are, but that's my personal point of view. Every time I tried to used them, I ran into problems. And, if you care about performance, (and you should care even more if you're targeting mobile devices) i wouldn't recommend them.
Nonetheless, components are not evil by default, you might want to give a try to some of the Open Source ones: http://osflash.org/components Cheers, Juan On 11/25/06, dc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I'm mostly doing flashlite1.1, where a slight parallel is always using your own movieclips to do stuff, rather than MM buttons. for flashlite 2.0, should we consider components, (of course, developing our own) or use a different strategy? thanks! /dc ------------------------------------------- David "DC" Collier mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +81 (0)80 6521 9559 skype: callto://d3ntaku ------------------------------------------- Pikkle 株式会社 http://www.pikkle.com ------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
