This one is starting to really drive me crazy ... placing any one of a multitude of custom components on the mxml stops design mode from opening. Just grabbed the SteelPotato footerdatagrid to see if it can be seen if it is used. Nope - stops design mode. Wanted to try it because our implementation of Alex's solution also stops design mode from opening. The FlexLib buttons do the same thing - code them into source view and no more design view.
How do you deal with this? Our corporate dashboards are starting to get very detailed and we need a WYSIWYG view to adjust things. Do we really have to compile, run application, view in browser, check, and then go back to source mode to increase the width of a button if needed? Any info really appreciated. TIA, Mic.
