Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to add Flex components to the Stage?
Flex is a complete framework and each and every component follows the rules
of the framework. Without the framework running in the background its
probably impossible to get a component working unless you do a lot of work
to make it work. Perhaps much easier to write a separate AS3 component.

I'm not sure why you want to add a Flex Component directly to the stage.
I suppose in theory you could; but that would bypass all the Flex Framework
code to position and size the component. You'd, in essence, need to write
your own layout manager. that performs the same functionality as the Flex
Layout manager.
In the context of Flex; it probably isn't a good idea to access the stage
directly.

I'm working in an AS3 view library (no Flex, just Sprites) where I need to
add a Scrollable container component to the Stage on a click event. There's
no way to do this as I see it unless I write my own Scroll container, use
Flex SDK (don't think this works), or use fl.containers.ScrollPane (which is
not an option since we're not using a .fla)
So basically, I'm trying to accomplish this, as simple runnable example,
but it fails silently and nothing appears...any ideas? Thanks.
