In my item renderer, I need to display a list of labels, but the number of labels per row depends on how many of them fit within one row. To do that, I need to actually measure the width of the label created prior to being added as a child of my renderer. Anyone has any idea how to do that? I need something like: var label:Label = new Label(); label.text = "Test label"; // Then I need to measure the width of the created label. Cheers and thanks in advance for reading my post. Ivan.
