Hi guys,

I'm using a SWFLoader to load a SWF in two places in a parent app (and
the two places are different sizes) and am having trouble with 
scrollbars. The loaded app is quite simple: Application --> VBox -->
List. When a sufficient number of items are added to the list (which
is done by the parent application) I need the scrollbars to show up. 

What I'm trying to figure out is: in which component should the
scrollbars appear? Is it the list, the VBox, or the child App itself?
What's happening is that if I have (say) 12 items in the list, the
vertical scroll bar appears in the list but it is too long. It won't
scroll far enough, and in the canvas into which the child is loaded, I
can't see the whole list. So I can only see about 8 of the items, even
with scrolling.

I'm also confused about exactly what scaleContent = true is supposed
to do in this context. Documentation says: "When the scaleContent
property is set to true, Flex scales the content to fit within the
bounds of the control." That makes sense if it's a scalable image. But
what if it's the listbox? Does scaling content then become irrelevant?
Should it be set to true or false?

Anyone have experience with these issues?

Thanks,

David
