<mx:HDividedBox/> tag is the same as
<mx:DividedBox direction="horizontal"/>.
An HDividedBox container has the following default sizing characteristics:
| Characteristic | Description |
|---|---|
| Default size | Width is large enough to hold all of its children at the default or explicit widths of the children, plus any horizontal gap between the children, plus the left and right padding of the container. Height is the default or explicit height of the tallest child plus the top and bottom padding of the container. |
| Default padding | 0 pixels for the top, bottom, left, and right values. |
| Default gap | 10 pixels for the horizontal and vertical gaps. |
Hide MXML SyntaxThe <mx:HDividedBox> tag inherits all of the tag
attributes of its superclass except direction and adds
no new tag attributes.
