hi,

I am trying to learn reflex and best to is of course implementing some
components -
reimplementing minimal comps: skinned with degrafa and functionality
moved to behaviors

minimal comps basically have a few skins - drop shadow, background,
button face which are changed depending on states

so a few requests/ideas or nice to have things:

- reflex composite skins (like we have composite behaviours)
- enabled/disabled property for all components as in flex
- some states functionality (SetProperty, AddChild, RemoveChild)

Great! Wishlists help us determine what features are most important to the community. Particularly now as Ben and I are spending a lot of time developing and refining the project it will help influence our focus to some degree. Thank you for submitting these requests.
 
- reflex composite skins (like we have composite behaviours)

Does this mean multiple states (visual representations) of a skin, or do you mean skins that can be replaced at runtime?
 
- enabled/disabled property for all components as in flex

Definitely.
 
- some states functionality (SetProperty, AddChild, RemoveChild)

We hope to support the same states functionality as Flex, but this hasn't been delved into yet. We will be getting the base implementation solidified and then rolling out features over the next little while, I'll be sure to keep you informed.

thanks again!
Tyler

Reflex composite skins:
For example: minimal comps radio button and check box have the same background and only checkedskin is different
so it may look like that

checkbox:
<Button>
<skins>
<BackgroundSkin />
<SquareSkin />
</skins>
</Button>

radion button:
<Button>
<skins>
<BackgroundSkin />
<CircleSkin />
</skins>
</Button>
