Hello Alex, Thanks for the note. I am wondering why new release build of flex/spark does't have this feature? Its up to user whether to use it or not. Background on components is the basic requirement of many clients now a days. Hope in future adobe will implement/add this feature. Thanks for the reply Alex.
