200kb??? I don't think so. scrollbar: 32kb all UI Components: 124kb
You're also compairing 1 component with a complete framework.. There's no comparisson. If all you need is a scrollbar, then the v2 components are probably not a good choice. When developing a large RIA it is, in my opinion. regards, Muzak ----- Original Message ----- From: "JulianG" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Flashcoders mailing list" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, November 25, 2006 10:22 PM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] components are Evil? >I have the same impression. > I found it easier to develop my own scroll bar component (or class ) > including support for mouse weel, targeting textfields and masked > movieclips , than dealing with the graphic customization of the UI > Components. > I've also noticed they add about 200KB to your SWF file. > > Considering those things I'd say they qualify as "evil". > > I haven't dealt with Flex yet, but perhaps that where they really belong to. > > cheers, > Julian.G >> _______________________________________________ [email protected] 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
