[flexcoders] Simple Panel Resizer

[tr.coffey]

This works ok but performs terribly. I just can't get the panel 
update fast enough to follow the mouse. Any help?

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:Application  initialize="setListeners();" frameRate="36" 
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; width="100%" height="100%">
   
<mx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
                public function setListeners():void
                {
                resizeButton.addEventListener
((MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE), myPanelResizer);
                }
        
                public function removeResizer():void
                {
                myPanel.removeEventListener((MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE), 
myPanelResizer);
                }
                
                public function myPanelResizer(e:MouseEvent):void 
                {
                        if(e.buttonDown)
                        {
                        e.target.parent.parent.width = 
e.target.parent.parent.mouseX +20;
                        e.target.parent.parent.height = 
e.target.parent.parent.mouseY +20;
                        }
                        e.updateAfterEvent();           
                }

        ]]>
