I'm creating an Accordion from run-time XML using a repeater. I'm able to populate the accordion with the code below but, as is, the body is sized to the height of the largest element resulting in lots of blank space in those elements that don't have much text. Ideally, each accordion body would size itself to the height of the text for the given record. Possible? thx <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml <http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml> " initialize="modulesSrv.send();"> <mx:HTTPService id="modulesSrv" url="xml/modules.xml"/> <mx:Accordion id="contents" height="100%" width="200" > <mx:Repeater id="rep" dataProvider="{modulesSrv.lastResult.row.Module}" > <mx:VBox height="100%" width="200" id="accHead" label="{rep.currentItem.ModuleName}" verticalScrollPolicy="off" > <mx:Label text="{rep.currentItem.ModuleTitle}"/> <mx:Text height="100%" width="175" > <mx:htmlText> {rep.currentItem.ModuleDesc} </mx:htmlText> </mx:Text> </mx:VBox> </mx:Repeater> </mx:Accordion> </mx:Canvas>
