Notes will be updated as I actually get a chance to put some of these to use.
| FlexBuilder 3 Controls | |
|---|---|
| Control Name | Notes |
| AdvancedDataGrid | *Professional version only* + multi column sorting + grouping + tree view + printing support -- Still no paging support out of the box |
| AlertControl | not sure how this gets grouped with these other controls as it is not an explicit control but a static method "show()" which can be used from where ever. |
| Button | check out the FlexLib CanvasButton for a more flexible option |
| CheckBox | |
| ColorPicker | |
| ComboBox | |
| DataGrid | See this article for some hints on implementing paging |
| DateChooser | |
| DateField | |
| HSlider | |
| HorizontalList | |
| Image | |
| Label | |
| List | very fast and flexible, lots of issues with scrolling but workable |
| LinkButton | |
| NumericStepper | ![]() |
| OLAPDataGrid | *Professional version only* |
| PopUpButton | |
| PopUpMenuButton | |
| ProgressBar | |
| RadioButton | |
| RadioButtonGroup | |
| Repeater | SLOOOW when binding to many objects, look at List based controls instead |
| RichTextEditor | Limited html formatting, seems to work ok |
| SWFLoader | |
| Text | |
| TextArea | |
| TextInput | |
| TileList | see list, very fast control but takes a bit more work for smooth work |

| TitleWindow | |
