Changing SWFLoader dimensions will not result in layout change in HGroup
===

Days trying to determine and resolve the problem has produced only failure.

Within an HGroup, I create one MXML mx:SWFLoader entity, then a second, resize the second (the component, not the content [scaleContent left unchanged 'true'] (it matters not width, height, or scale, or if I do it from a function triggered by the complete event), it will scale the content, it will scale the opaqueBackground if set, but it will not, under any circumstances allow the first component to be moved any closer to the second then the value of the original width of the second.   No amount of validating layouts, removing and readding elements, etc causes the first SWFLoader entity to sit side-by-side with the displayed content of the second SWFLoader.

I've played with both the layout of the HGroup container, and constraints and alignments of both container and SWFLoaders, all to no avail.  Here is the entire itemRenderer definition:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <s:ItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" 
    				xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" 
    				xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" 
    				xmlns:c="components.yemin.*"
    				width="100%">
    	
    	<s:Group id="listItems">
    		<s:HGroup id="listItem" gap="33" paddingTop="11" paddingBottom="11" paddingLeft="15" paddingRight="15"  verticalAlign="top">
    			<c:NumberContainer numberLabel="{data.numberLabel}"/>
    			<c:graphicContainer buttonMode="true" imageSource="{data.imageSource}" scaleNum=".4" content="{data.content}"/>
    			<c:textArea textAreaWidth="400"/>
    			<c:RadioButtonGroup/>			
    		</s:HGroup>		
    	</s:Group>
    
    	<s:HGroup id="listItemOrderPanel" gap="0" verticalAlign="middle" horizontalAlign="right" width="100%">	
    		<mx:SWFLoader id="listItemOrderMenuButton"
    					  source="assets/swf/ListItemOrderMenuButton.swf" verticalAlign="middle" 
    					  verticalCenter="0"/>
    		<mx:SWFLoader id="listItemControlPanelSWF" source="assets/swf/ListItemControlPanel.swf" height="{listItem.height}"
    					  horizontalAlign="right"/>
    	</s:HGroup>
    </s:ItemRenderer>

Thanks for any assistance.  Giving up on it for now.
