Hi,
Search the archives for this, I know I have explained it quite a bit. :)
If you can't find it there read up on "Creating Custom Components".
You problem has to do with the fact you have not overridden measure() and
set measuredWidth and measuredHeight of you component.
If you don't do this, the layout manager will set the size of your component
to 0,0.
