My personal opinion is that the MX Spacer does not need to be re-written as a Spark Component. It won't game any benefit from being implemented using the Spark Architecture as it has no visual display.

Is there a reason the MX Spacer won't work for you? Would extending Rect be more efficient?

    Just curious if we could add a simple component that used to exist in MX

do the exact same thing now with the s:Rect (primitive), but it doesn't have an 
intuitive name.  I think it would be nice to add the spacer back in.



<s:Rect width="100%" />

--Same as--

<s:Spacer width="100%" />


Class:

//Declare package.
package spark.components
{
    //Create child class of the Rect class.
    public class Spacer extends Rect
    {
       //----------------------------------------
       //  Constructor
       //----------------------------------------

       public function Spacer()
       {
          super();
       }

    }

}
