you need to explicitly set the size of lineSprite (and maybe it's parents).

lineSprite.width = 200;
lineSprite.height = 900;

generally you would want this in the createChildren or measure functions if you were creating a new component, but here you just want it before lineSprite is added to it's parent.  Using width or measuredWidth or measuredMinWidth or explicitMinWidth should work.

Hi
I am having trouble when adding dynamic graphics content to a
container in getting the container to scroll this content.

So in a nutshell, I have some AS adding graphics/lineTo content to a
sprite class and then adding that as a child to a UIComponent, then
adding to a mxml declared container (tried variations Panel, HBox,
Canvas etc). The lines are being drawn however as the drawn conent
is larger than the visible container are I would have thought the
scrollbars for the target container to kick in. Hope this makes some
sense.

Sample:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute" creationComplete="initApp()">
        <mx:Script>
                <![CDATA[
                import mx.core.UIComponent;
                private var serviceOwner:UIComponent = new
UIComponent();
                private var UICLine:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
                private var lineSprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
                //
                private function initApp():void{

                        lineSprite.graphics.lineStyle
(2,0xFF0000,100);
                        lineSprite.graphics.moveTo(100,100);
                        lineSprite.graphics.lineTo(100,800);

                        UICLine.addChild(lineSprite);
                        serviceOwner.addChild (UICLine);
                        // if of container, currently a HBox
                        con.addChild(serviceOwner);
                }
                ]]>
        </mx:Script>
        <mx:HBox width="100%" height="50%" id="con">
        </mx:HBox>
</mx:Application>



Any help appreciated
Cheers
