RE: [flexcoders] Re: FormItem adds extra space on the left . . .

2007-02-09 Thread Gordon Smith 
The purpose of a FormItem is to associate a label with one or more
controls like this:

 

Name:  |-|  |-|

 

Address:  |-|

 

It looks like you don't need the label, so you don't need to use a
FormItem. But FormItem should be OK to use even when you don't use a
label, and I'm not sure why it's giving you a bad layout.

Clint,

Thank you for your swift reply.

Are you saying that there is no benefit in using FormItem with a
RadioButton? (At least, nothing that couldn't be done otherwise.)

If you need to have complete control over how the form is laid out, I
wouldn't use the form container, I would use something else. I am not sure
if you are aware of this, but you can use other containers inside a formItem
tag, i.e. a HBox or VBox... etc.. but that will not solve your issue of
taking the padding from the left side.
