If I were to file a bug, it would be at bugs.adobe.com/jira? There doesn't seem to be a Component Kit category in the Project dropdown. Also, does filing a bug mean it's possible for it to become fixed in a future patch of Flex 2?

Will there be any issue if I just continue using the workaround I've done? (i.e. assigning a doNothing function to those undefined functions) Thanks a lot. > > > > ________________________________ > > From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> ] On > Behalf Of Stephen Roy J.
