Check the manuals , developers guide and building flex components , there is plenty of documentation.
However , for your particular case , just add a click listener to the button , and on it do something like
var foo:Button = new Button();
container.addChild(foo);
for the shape thing , for each shape or object you want make a component. .
Flex knows about dragging , on mouse down just call startDrag and on mouse down call endDrag , and create a new instance
of that particular component you want to place and init it's x and y properties with contentMouseX and contentMouseY.
Hope this helps.

Subject: [flexcoders] Dynamically adding components to a panel?
I'm still very new to Flex so what I thought should be hard is easy and
what I thought should be easy is hard!
I'm trying to find out how, to make an easy example, by pressing a
button, another new button would appear in the panel.
Ultimately I want to make a kind of toolbar or palette, where I could
drag a shape from the palette into the workspace, and a copy of that
shape would remain where I performed the drop.
I can't find any examples that do anything like this.
Thanks for anyone's help or direction.
