Hey there, I was reading the articles regarding the components
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html? content=ascomponents_advanced_2.html I knew that by extending the UIComponent, I need to overriding the protected UIComponent methods ( createChildren(), commitProperties(), etc. ) My question was if I extend the Panel class, shall I still need to override these mehods? Personally, I think I need to overide them, but I wanna conform this first @v@ public class AlertBox extends Panel { ..... } thank you
