Question

question about the front page of Timers Reader?

Hi

   It is impressive to see the Timers Reader,  implemented by AIR and TLF,

   As we open the Timers Reader,  the first page into your eyes are a bunch of top news headlines.  I am trying to figure out how to create this by TLF ? is each headline a paragraph element of TextFlow  or  a container of TextFlow  ,  or just a  TextFlow ?

I would guess that each one is its own a little TextFlow.  If you are using the Flex 4 SDK, there are documented methods of how to create horizontal list-type component like that with item renderers that utilize TLF to render the text.  You could also create a very simple component that uses TLF directly by using a TextFlow with either a container controller or a text line factory to render the headline text within the component.
