Hi Gordon,

Thanks for replying. 

The reason for creating separate sprites is because some of the
sprites that are created in the box object needs to be added as a
child to the main custom component that is calling the box object. 

In short, some sprites need to be a direct child of the box object and
some sprites not. 

I can try to move some of these sprites into updateDisplayList() and
see what happens. 

However, if the drawing code or display object code section from beta2
to beta3 hasn't changed then everything should work.

Let me try to post some code for you to see.

Cheers,

Tim
