I was not very clear… ;-)
I'm setting the size of the containing component on an updateComplete event
using controller.getContentBounds()
The content bounds seems to be larger than what I specified as the
compositionWidth. In my thinking, that should not be happening. Of course, I
can check the composed width and force it back down on a compositionComplete
event (I think), but I would not have thought I should have to do that…
Here's a bit of code to make it clearer:
private function onUpdate(ev:UpdateCompleteEvent):void{
var bounds:Rectangle = controller.getContentBounds();
if(bounds.width != width || bounds.height != height){
width = bounds.width;
height = bounds.height;
dispatchEvent(new Event(ResizeEvent.RESIZE));
}
}
The width is wider than what I specified in
controller.setCompositionSize(value,controller.compositionHeight);
