{} only works in MXML, not in actionscript. I would just listen for the RESIZE
event and update the height then

Subject: [flexcoders] Trying to set the height of sliderthumbclass based on the
height of a VBox ...
For my horizontal slider, I want a long vertical line as the thumb. I was able
to do that fine using a SliderThumbClass where I assigned a small vertical line
image and then set the height to 250 and used thumboffset appropriately to make
it go below the slider.
Now however, I want this height to be based on the height of a VBox that gets
populated dynamically with elements. I tried to bind by using
this.height = "{myVBox.height}";
but that's somehow not doing anything. Using teh variable in MXML in the thumb
offset (val/2) works fine but I have the image at the original size. What's
going on? Is there a way to embed a slider thumb class directly in mxml where I
could use the binding? Or is there a different way to bind these variables?
