I will work up a proper example for you, but try this: <pre lang="actionscript"> var component:UIComponent = new UIComponent( ); component.addChild( defaultTool ); this.addChild( component );</pre> It has been a while, let me get it working and I will post it.

var component:UIComponent = new UIComponent( );
component.addChild( defaultTool );
this.addChild( component );

I use TransformTool in a function in a mx:Script block in mxml file as : private var defaultTool : TransformTool; private function initTool() : void { defaultTool = new TransformTool(); canvas.addChild(defaultTool); defaultTool.target = img; } mx:Canvas id='canvas' ... mx:Image id='img' .... sorry, some characters can not be displayed correctly above.

But there is little examples showing how to use it in flex, Would you please share some example about how to use 'TransformTool' in Flex? I have tried as such a way: but it failed at line canvas.addChild(defaultTool); Can you give any hints? Thanks.
