Hi All I understand the purpose of the clone() method. But I still don't know when it is necessary to use clone() method. Her is a link http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=intro_3.html . Look at the "Handling events from composite components". In it redispatches the event but clone() method was not used.
