The same thing happens if you are trying to align components inside a canvas using right/left/top/bottom. In mxml it's fine but you have to use setStyle in AS. I think it just has to do with whether the property was set up as a Style or a Property in the main component. In MXML, you get to them the same way but in AS they are separate (due to the component lifecycle)
