Maybe you can just remove the console panel from the divided box so that it has only one child and add it back in when you want it? You can't get the DividedBox to change child pointers like you're attempting.

I have a console which displays debugging messages as a child of a VDividedBox. I want my user to be able to toggle the visibility of the console. When they set it to off, it should disappear including the little drag gripper. My idea is to create a ViewStack with 2 children. One of the children is the main application's "stage". The other is a VDividedBox with 2 children of it's own: the main application's "symbolicStage" and the "consolePanel". I could then toggle between the two to display the console. I planned on Binding the symbolicStage to the ViewStack's stage using a Binding tag: <mx:Binding source="stage" destination="symbolicStage" /> But it seems you need to bind to properties and not objects themselves. Does anyone have any idea how to get around this problem? My mitigated idea in code is: <mx:Binding source="stage" destination="symbolicStage" /> <mx:ViewStack width="100%" height="100%" creationPolicy="all"> <mx:VDividedBox liveDragging="true" width="100%" height="100%"> <mx:Box id="symbolicStage" width="100%" height="100%"/> <view:ConsolePanel width="100%"/> </mx:VDividedBox> <mx:Box id="stage" width="100%" height="100%"> <mx:Label text="This is the stage"/> </mx:Box> </mx:ViewStack> Thanks, Todd -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
