damn, didn't think of that; I did an exact
positioning of an entirely new label on the Stage's resize:
?xml version="1.0"
encoding="utf-8"?mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"initialize="initApp();"mx:Script![CDATA[function
initApp(){onResize();Stage.addListener(this);}
function d(o){debug_ta.text += o +
newline;}
function onResize(){var o =
{};o.x = my_form.x;o.y = my_form.y;o.x +=
main_fi.x;o.y += main_fi.y;label1.move(o.x,
o.y);}]]/mx:Scriptmx:Canvas
width="100%" height="100%"mx:Form id="my_form"
x="109" y="83" borderColor="#00" backgroundColor="#006699"
mx:FormItem id="main_fi"
mx:Button label="Button" //mx:FormItem
mx:FormItem label="Hello and welcome" mx:Button
label="Button" //mx:FormItem
/mx:Formmx:TextArea x="128" y="221" width="272"
height="109" id="debug_ta" /mx:Text id="label1"
text="Text"
//mx:Canvas/mx:Application

Yep
:) But the following seems to do the trick...
test.mxml
?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?
mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"
xmlns="*"
mx:Form
HackedFormItem label="small label"
mx:TextInput /
/HackedFormItem
HackedFormItem label="really big label"
mx:TextInput /
/HackedFormItem
HackedFormItem label="really really really big label"
mx:TextInput /
/HackedFormItem
/mx:Form
/mx:Application
HackedFormItem.as
import mx.controls.FormItemLabel;
class HackedFormItem extends mx.containers.FormItem {
function layoutChildren():Void {
super.layoutChildren();
label_mc.x = 0;
}
}
Cheers,
Paul.

Left aligned form labelsHi,Does anyone else
find the inability to left align FormItem labels a problem? We have
a major US financial client whos style guide requires left aligned labels
on forms. I tried to use the FormItem.labelObject property to see if
I could get to the label's style attributes but it seems that although
it's documented the labelObject property doesn't exist. Has anyone
worked out a workaround? We have to build a lot of forms, wouldbe
good to be able to use the Flex tags.Cheers,Robinhttp://www.rocketboots.com.au~~---This e-mail may contain confidential information.
