Does my mac adresse change if I upgrade my computer with some other hardware? For example change the graphic card?

Comment on Whoever wrote mx.core.Container is awesome by Sunil

I recall reading this comment too. I think what makes this quote cool is the context of where the comment was written: making the distinction between the “rawChildren” and “children” of a Container object.

With that in mind, I think the quote is humorous and brightens your day of pouring through source code

Comment on Flex4 broke fully-qualified identifiers by Dusty

Maybe I’m missing something… but imports aren’t required if you’re using the Fully Qualified Name. FB is working exactly as it should. If you want an import statement, use just the class and add the import statement.

You shouldn’t be using FQN in your code unless you want to use BOTH Responders in your class.

IF FB is throwing errors saying that it needs an import, then there is a bug there.

Comment on (Finally) A workaround for tab text shift by Dennis Falling

Awesome- thanks. I kept looking in Button.as since that’s the class that’s referred to the most in TabBar. Totally forgot about Tab.

check out the layoutContents method of the Tab class in the SDK:

override mx_internal function layoutContents(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number,
offset:Boolean):void
{
super.layoutContents(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight, offset);

// If we’re pressed, offset the label down by a pixel
if (selected)
{
textField.y++;

if (currentIcon)
currentIcon.y++;
}
