hi,

I would like to know if it is the same to assign properties to my custom component in its own class, or from the parent document. Please see snippet below:

Here I assign the property bottom in my custom component class:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:LinkButton bottom="20" >        

    <mx:Script>
...

Here I assign the property bottom when I use the component in my main MXML file

<myComp:Brick bottom="10"/>

Am I overriding the original one ?

Thanks
