Hi, As it is the Box disregaurds x and y.
My advice as a component developer is, subclass the Box and create a bottomRenderer property that is IFactory. Create a method that overrides layoutChrome() and layout the renderer based on your required dimensions. This instance would be added to rawChildren. Another angle is if you need the box created in mxml for some reason(in the content children), override createComponentsFromDescriptors() remove the instance you have identified, put it in rawChildren and layout it out in the chrome. You will need to override viewMetrics() and add the height of the instance to the bottom property. If this sounds like something you would want to try, I can be more specific.

Is this possible in a standard 'vertical' layout VBox, or does one have to go 'absolute' layout? I have a VBox displaying 1-N child boxes, and I want one to be pinned to the bottom. Is this possible or do I need to wrap an absolute layout around this?
