[flexcoders] Questions, Questions

[David Terry]

Hello Everyone,   First off…  I am very, very new to Flex/ActionScript coding – like 2 days new, but I am finding this newsgroup to be a great resource.   Here is my issue…   My boss wants an application that will allow the user to drag & drop elements into a container, manipulate any elements within the container, and save the positioning data (x/y and height/width) of each ‘child’ element within the container.   I decided to look into Flex as a possible development platform to accomplish these goals, but I am having a hard time finding information.  I know I can do the drag & drop functionality into the container, but I haven’t found information on the rest.   Here are my questions… ------------------------------------- Can I reposition elements within the container (using a canvas)?  How?  Drag & drop events? Can I get x/y and height/width information from the items within the container?  How?   Thanks in advance, David T.     Yahoo!
