Sorry it took me so long to respond to this. I thought everything had moved over to the other thread.

I have submitted an ECR FR-APOLLO-00096. I thought that maintainAspectRation was designed to allow images to scale gracefully. I think that the root issue here is that there is a bug in the way Flex is deciding when to scale content. If I have scaleContent and maintainAspectRatio both set to true, I'd expect that the content would size itself within the available space regardless of whether the control is set to a percentage of the container size or not. However, that is not what happens, so you get giant content in small containers with scrollbars. I think if the feature worked as expected you would indeed be correct. > I asked in the other thread that you post a couple of the swfs so I can > look at them.

You would think they would then step up to the plate and provide examples that show a workaround to restore functionality that has been eliminated. -Amy
