No. Returning internal objects for users to meddle with is a very bad idea. What's done around with other composed widgets is adding functions mirroring the ones of the internal widgets. It's ugly and I really dislike it, but at least you keep your internals protected and when something is not supposed to be done, you don't have to go around documenting it, instead you just not provide the function to do it. > That's what I think is missing for ALPHA. > -- > Tom. > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Download new Adobe(R) Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 > The new Adobe(R) Flex(R) 4 and Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 (formerly > Flex(R) Builder(TM)) enable the development of rich applications that run > across multiple browsers and platforms.
