Re: Missing Spark Components List

"I pushed for Adobe to remove HGroup and VGroup before the release of spark as I saw these as absolutely pointless" The point is to have the component type that you need ready for you when you need it. Don't re-invent the wheel every time. Some of these are easy to make *for us*. Things like VGro

Re: Missing Spark Components List

I'm with Jonathan on this I pushed for Adobe to remove HGroup and VGroup before the release of spark as I saw these as absolutely pointless. In spark we should use a container or data control and then add the required layout. There is no need to bake in layouts and expose their properties

You know, you're right. I think I was reacting to carol's response to it and thought that the word vaporware was in there but it doesn't seem to be. I do think that the term vaporwear would have been unprofessional as it would imply an unnecessarily jaded view that they'll never get them done. I t

I think this is a great list but that it should be more courteous and professional in tone. I am really thankful that Adobe's committed to finish out the spark set and I'm sure it's a lot of work. Lets cheer these folk on instead of making any timeline that isn't tomorrow a failure. That would be v

Re: Missing Spark Components List

The missing point to Flex SDK is, Move on! If those components are not sparked by spark itself, move on. Don't replicate legacy code into a new formula. Let's be more creative people, implementing new components based on Spark Architecture. Because later on, we will have a new architecture that

It was not a criticism, but a real question about how complicated it would be to donate just the code for those components without any other code from Flex 5.

How complicated is it to donate those components to Apache? I would prefer to see these components donated asap even if they are incomplete so that the community can decide whether they will be used as is, modified or reimplemented. Haykel On 1 March 2012 16:18, Carol Frampton wrote: > Omar,
