Hi all,

Does anyone have already implemented a multicolumn form in Flex?

Before you point me to Google (GIYF), I already tried all solutions
available, including the most known ones:
- 
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/communityengine/index.cfm?event=showdetails&productId=2&postId=9644
- http://jc.pontaza.com/wp/?p=77
- My own

Let me first describe the each ones:

Adobe's: It plays really nice, until you need to define an item that
occupies more than a single row. There's no colSpan (as in HTML), but
there's rowSpan for column.

Potanza's: Weird, really weird solution. It only accepts column
organization if you use its FormGroup class. Inspecting source, you'll
see that FormGroup extends Form, and the entire idea behind a single
Form is down.
My automate script pick each FormItem (or any other class that I
define) and incorporate all children picking its value depending on
children class instance. Sounds big and yes, it is.
The issue is that this automation ignores other Forms. So if you
define a nested form inside the one you're calling, all fields
internally defined are ignored.

Mine: I used a simple HBox and made Box children inside. It did
everything I wanted, except label spacing. The form inputs does not
left align to the higher one, and becomes horrible.
I switched then to Grid, and the same issue happened again.


Now, I ask the same question again.... does anyone have already
implemented a *real* multicolumn form in Flex?
If possible could you share the source or swc file?


Thanks in advance,


Best regards,
