(measuredHeight > height) will tell you if a component should be clipped and the flex framework will normally enforce this. If you're doing something weird in extending the framework and want so see if you're still enforcing this rule, make sure the scrollRect property is properly set. (no clipping -> scrollRect == null) Remember, to wait until everything has been validated to check this property because it maybe incorrect during intermediate processing.
