Nevermind, I've wrapped the Panel into a Canvas and put the tabs into the canvas too. The Panel does not need to be resized once it is instantiated so that's an ok solution I think.
Thanks anyway.

I do not know if the following is any help in your situation but a simple solution would be to have a canvas behind the Panel and position a tabbar on top of the panel's header...It might be a bit heavy thought On Fri, Mar 27, 2009 at 9:50 AM, Sascha <sbal...@gmail.com> wrote: Hi list, I need to write a Flex Panel so that it features several tabs on the left side of the panel. I remember darkly that I need to add sumbols to the components chrome for this to work but resources on the web seem to be very scarce (there's moslty only stuff describing how to add something to the panel's titlebar but that's not what I need). Could somebody give me a helping hand on this? I've created four symbols in Flash that extend UIMovieClip and these symbols need to stick out of the left side of my Panel so they can be used as some sort of tabs. Problem is I have no clue how to add features to the panels 'skin' (chrome) anymore. Sascha -- Fotis Chatzinikos, Ph.D. Founder, Phinnovation fotis.chatzini...@gmail.com,
