Question

I’ve got FormItems with labels, and I’d like for the label to appear on top of the textinput within it rather than to its left, but I don’t know where I need to go or what CSS I need to set this.

<mx:Form id="myform" defaultButton="{BtnSave}">
  <mx:FormItem label="MyData" required="true">
    <s:TextInput id="dataTextInput" text="{data}"/>
  </mx:FormItem>
</mx:Form>

Answer 1

I don’t think this is possible w/ MX Forms. I guess in theory you could do something like this:

<mx:Form id="myform" defaultButton="{BtnSave}">
  <mx:FormItem required="true" direction="vertical">
    <s:Label text="MyData" />
    <s:TextInput id="dataTextInput" text="{data}"/>
  </mx:FormItem>
</mx:Form>

But, If you’re going to do that then why bother using the form in the first place?
