Scour the archives. Folks ask about using Text in a renderer often. You always have to supply a custom measure() method that uses the explicitWidth of the renderer to measure the Text properly.

Hey guys, I googled this and can't seem to find where I'm going wrong. I've got a list with an inline itemRenderer, with variableHeight turned on, but all non-visible items are losing their height. What I mean is that when you scroll down, all revealed items having standard list-item height, and when you scroll back up, the ones that used to be alright are now also too short. Any ideas where I'm going wrong? Code below: <mx:List dataProvider="{ tempNotes }" id="existingNotes" width="100%" maxHeight="400" variableRowHeight="true"> <mx:itemRenderer> <mx:Component> <mx:VBox horizontalAlign="left" horizontalScrollPolicy="off" width="100%" verticalScrollPolicy="off" backgroundColor="#eeeeee" verticalGap="2"> <mx:Text width="100%" text="{data.text}" fontSize="9" fontStyle="italic"/> <mx:HBox horizontalGap="10"> <mx:Text text="From " fontSize="9"/> <mx:Text fontWeight="bold" text="{data.userId}" fontSize="9"/> <mx:Text text="11-11-08" fontSize="9" width="60"/> </mx:HBox> </mx:VBox> </mx:Component> </mx:itemRenderer> </mx:List> Cheers, -J -- "Therefore, send not to know For whom the bell tolls.
