hi kiran,

 

from flex docs says can use state class in states property of flex components. can specify states property @ root of application or custom control, not on child controls.

 

 

so cannot use in other child containers....so states defined component , not sub containers or sub components..

 

 

 

thanks,

bhasker chari
