This application is somewhat unusual in that we dynamically create components in accordance with a user defined XML file. We switched from BETA 3 Milestone 4 to the new released GA version of Flex. The anomolies that we are seeing are in multiple areas. The most evident are in the initial creation of widgets. We use an Accordion component and programatically introduce child panels with textboxes, comboboxes, etc. The comboboxes are tied to ArrayCollections dynamically derived from web service calls. Everything worked fine in BETA but when we switched, all hell broke loose.
1) The Headers for the 2nd Accordion panel (there are two total) is now off the screen 2) There now appears a vertical scroll bar, where there was none in the BETA version 3) When attempting to select the 2nd panel, via the header, it does not open the panel the first time. Disappears from view and we have to scroll down to it and click the header again, at which time it now selects the 2nd panel appopriately. 4) There are items in the comboboxes, but when I click tje button to expose the dropdown the program starts behaving erraticly. It will select another item, but the response becomes extremely slow and eventually memory usage goes way up, the fan comes on and the screen will eventually lock up 5) On the comboboxes which I have a typeahead programmed (after 3 characters the component automatically calls a web service to provide content via a database call). The content comes back, but the behavior is different than it was during BETA. It should display a dropdown list allowing the user to choose the corect content. It now selects the first item in the list and does not display the dropdown. The behavior that I am seeing is different across the board, from BETA to the new release version. It often ends up in some race condition where it eats up memory and eventually stops responding and needs to be force quit.
