I want to display a set of thumbnails inside a tilelist using a custom itemRenderer. I also want the users to be able to see larger versions of the thumbnail itemrenderer when they mouse over. What is the best way to do this? In other words, what would be the most user friendly component to use? Is there an elegant way to have a resize event on rollover?

Thanks

thanks for the link,
I tried it but the resize is somewhat limited to the size of the cell. Ideally I would like the image thumb to grow to it's full size (from about 50x50 pxls to 400x400). Is there a clean way to have that thumbnail grow to that size without being cut off by the tilelist?

Thanks

Hi there,

Please have a look at this thread! "Is it possible to develop a image gallery in flex builder? “ If you view this site go to the "FAUNA" section and there is in section TWO (SEC:-2) a gallery with different Tile Lists to preview and enlarge Images. Maybe just what you where looking for???

that's pretty cool example, however, it's not quite what I'm looking for. I was hoping to be able to resize the elements of the actual tilelist when the user rollsover. There doesn't seem to be a simple way of doing this without having the elements being cut off.
