Easy enough. height="{panel1.height-control1.height-control2.height}". I have a simple sample for states, with a transition here:
http://www.cflex.net/showfiledetails.cfm?ChannelID=1&Object=File&objectID=422
It's based on Cairngorm, but maybe it will give you some ideas. If you ceate a model class, you can easily control state behavior with binding. The help docs have some good examples as well.
Glad to help,
Tim
