My understanding of Flex is that it compilation process is in two stages. The first step transforms the MXML into ActionScript , then the ActionScript is compiled. So I imagine you can do anything you want to at runtime...but you wouldn't be able to touch the MXML itself, since it only exists as a format to describe objects at design time.

Once you generate your mxml and compile, is that mxml available to you at runtime? In other words, could you, for example, reconfigure the layout of your Flex movie without recompiling it? Or perhaps, based on some passed in variable, use different background PNGs in your widgets? Flex allows you enormous Flexibility at compile time, I guess the question is - how much flexibility does it offer at runtime? Or is that kind of flexibility reserved for users of the Flex server...
