Might be time to extend Container instead of UIComponent
________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of reflexactions Sent: Friday, June 15, 2007 2:09 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcomponents] Clipping Content I am currently masking a composite component to prevent its children being drawn outside its bounds when being animated by an effect. I have now added a border and I want the masking/clipping to apply only to the child controls not the border. Is the way to do this to create a child "body" display object and add the controls to the "body" (I dont want to extend a container as this is a simple composite control with just a couple of child controls). What methods of UIComponent would I need to override to make sure everything still works? tks
