You are clear that constraint based layout requires a Canvas or application or panel with absolute layout?
Either extend one of those for your component, or size and position your child component manually.

Any other suggestion how to anchor an UIComponent object? dennis From: dennis [mailto:den...@anel.cc] Sent: Saturday, December 19, 2009 12:12 AM To: 'flexcoders@yahoogroups.com' Subject: RE: [SPAM] RE: [flexcoders] Re: constraintColumns/constraintRows on extended Sprite object REFdn6025643069 Hi Tracy. I hope you are ok. I do the follow: var d:PanelGradient=new PanelGradient(0,0,stg.width/2,stg.height/2,30,30,stg.width/2*1.5,stg.width/2 *1.5); d.setStyle("right",10); d.setStyle("bottom",10); addChild(d); In the above code, setting the "right" and "bottom", I expect, in case of resizing the browser, the PanelGrandient must be kept anchored in the right bottom corner. What I do wrong? p.s. The PanelGradient extends the UIComponent and in real is a container of a Shape with a matrix. dennis ...we are what we are doing... P Think! before you print.

So to use constraints in AS, you need to define them in a style sheet, and/or use setStyle().

I work only with AS, I mean with no MXML. I tried to use the Canvas container but using the mx.containers.Canvas, there is no right property (even top, bottom, left).
