When are you looking at those properties? measuredWidth/Height don't get set until the measure() method is called. If they stay at 0, then the component will not have any size. Did you set %width/height instead? Maybe we need to see the code.

The parameters are both 0. The parent that this guy is getting added to is UIComponent (which happens to be a complex item renderer), I'm not sure if that could be playing into this? Out of curiosity, I overrode height, explictHeight and measuredHeight in the component (my class that extends Hbox) and set a breakpoint in each of them--they never get called. The width and height of this component is never explicitly set because I want it to be as big as the HBox. thanks! --- In [email protected]<mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com>, Alex Harui <aha...@...> wrote: > > In updateDisplayList, see if the parameters are 0.
