How hard would it be to add a minimize button? Also, I couldn't get what Jamie above suggests to work. I was able to add an event listener for FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE and have the handler function call "positionChildren()". That seems to fix the issue. Add this line to "addListeners": this.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, posKids); Then add this to the class: private function posKids(evt:Event):void{ this.positionChildren(); } Thanks for this!

Calling initPos seems to sort things out though ;-) Ah - figured out why it happens - I was using width and height percentages rather than explicit values - seems the percent approach causes this problem.

Wasn't until I moved the panel around and clicked on one of them that they suddenly moved into their correct positions. Any ideas?!

Just one small thing I see -- if you could add an x and y offset for the resize cursor in the call to cursorManager.setCursor() I think it would improve the feel of resizing the panel.
