Before i placed the buttons inside the list i could drag and drop them onto a canvas. But now i suppose i am not able to do that, since i have them as objects. Thx Peter,

Although the best approach may be to have images which are sized to fit the Flex application. For examples, the thumbnails in the above example look pretty good because they are small and not distorted, but the large images look somewhat poor because they are being stretched and resized to fit in the application (because I couldn't be bothered to resize them in Photoshop). Peter @Viorel,

I don't know if this is the right place to ask. No matter what picture size I use (4MB or 150KB) the result is the same: poor quality picture. Can I set a parameter for picture quality!
