Still no luck-- even if I specify the height as above, the accordion will expand beyond 25% if there is enough content in the child node. I have found a found a potential work-around solution, however: If I specify an absolute height for the first accordion child based off of the application height, the accordion will use that height: <mx:Panel width="100%" height="25%"> <mx:Accordion id="optionsAccordion" width="100%"> <vso:Form label="Accordion Entry 1" width="100%" height="{this.height / 5}"/> The only problem is that because the height is now absolute, it remains the same even when resizing. The next thing to do will be to set an event-handler that responds to the application being resized and recompute the height for the accordion.
