Yep tried that to.
<mx:VBox
id="vBxContent"
width="100%"
height="100%"
maxHeight="{this.height}"
backgroundColor="#666666"
verticalAlign="middle"
horizontalAlign="center">
has no effect.
<mx:VBox
id="vBxContent"
width="100%"
height="100%"
maxHeight="100%"
backgroundColor="#666666"
verticalAlign="middle"
horizontalAlign="center">
does not even work because you can set maxHeight only to a number and not to
a percent value.
I would set it to a number,
but I don't have the number, because I want the vBxContent to be dynamic
within its parent...
