TileGroup grows unnecessary
Hi,
I have a tilegroup where i add icons (spark images) at runtime.
There is enough room for 4 icons in one row of the tilegroup,
but when adding the third icon the group grows as for making room for
the next row,
although the third icon is placed in the first row (the 4th also)
the same is for the 2nd row and the 7th icon and so on
here some high tech graphics to show what i mean ;)
2 icons (right):
-----------------------------
icon icon
-----------------------------
3 icons (wrong):
----------------------------
icon icon icon
----------------------------
should be:
---------------------------
icon icon icon
---------------------------
what I'm doing wrong?
thanks
Frank

setting height to 100% and validateNow() does not help
yes, i could compute the height each time the user adds an icon
but i thought its a misconfiguration of the tilegroup or even a bug
i just found out that when i set the width of the tilegroup to a real value
(the measured width of the screen in the mobile view) and not to 100%
then it works

If nothing else you can try using this function called after you have done
adding controls:
...
validateNow();
resizeTileGroup();
private function resizeTileGroup():void
{
var maxH:int = 0;
for (var i:int=1;i<=rowCount;i++)
{
var elt:DisplayObject = getChildAt(i * columnCount - columnCount);
maxH += elt.height;
}
height = maxH + verticalGap * rowCount;
}

Try setting up height as well. Also see if validateNow() after you finish
adding images at the run time has any effect.

width is 100%, height has no value, it shall grow in height but only
when needed (5 icons, 9 icons etc.)

Have you set width and height of the control to percentage values?
