Everything is mx: at the minute. I would like to use spark where there are spark components, but when I’ve tried, I’ve run into a few things that aren’t ideal. I can’t remember what now, but one recent memory was to do with how to make a good job in the editor of using the spark border components. Part of me says ‘well, the mx: components are a LOT more powerful than the existing Xerte icons, so we’re much better off, but another part of me say ‘let’s try and get with the latest stuff’. It also means going through the MetaData.as and making sure that all the relevant properties, methods, styles and events reflect the underlying components – and in fact this needs doing anyway – as there are some errant / not relevant ones in there right now – I created MetaData.as by manually typing them all in from the help, so that’s not trivial…</SPAN></P>
