You will need to familiarize yourself with States. The components specifically used are not as important as the concept of an open and closed state. The author likely used a simple container like VBox/HBox/Canvas, and had the button change the state so that the size was increased, the children were set to visible, and the state used a transition to make the open/close effect occur of a duration.
So... look into: - states - transitions - containers Good luck, Brendan On Fri, Jun 18, 2010 at 3:49 PM, Angelo Anolin <[email protected]>wrote: > > > Hi FlexCoders, > > I saw this example of a Flex Application. > > http://www.radscientist.com/flexpm/demo/index.html > > I want to be able to create the collapsible component which was used in the > application.
