The Tile container is designed to lay out its children in a way such
that, if children no longer fit in one direction, they wrap to the
next row/column. So it's like a Box with automatic wrapping. There's
no hard limit on the number of rows/columns in a Tile -- it depends on
the available space. The horizontal Tile grows vertically, the
vertical Tile grows horizontally.
If you're looking for a fixed number of columns/rows, then you really
want a bunch of Box'es inside Box'es.
<!-- 3x3 grid -->
<mx:VBox>
<mx:HBox><!-- 3 children here --></mx:HBox>
<mx:HBox><!-- 3 children here --></mx:HBox>
<mx:HBox><!-- 3 children here --></mx:HBox>
</mx:VBox>
Or (bingo!) a Grid:
<mx:Grid
horizontalGap="8"
verticalGap="8">
...
These child tags are examples only:
<mx:GridRow id="row1"<
<mx:GridItem
rowSpan="1"
colSpan="1">
<mx:Button label="Button 1"/>
</mx:GridItem>
...
</mx:GridRow>
