This is a requirement were you wanted to add a Button or Button’s to Panel‘s Control Bar and you are wondering how to achieve this, iam telling you this is simple and the code example is given below.
Here we have to use a subtag in Panel tag control and the tag is <mx:ControlBar />
Example:
<mx:ControlBar horizontalAlign=”center” width=”385″>
<mx:Button label=”Clear” click=”output.text =”” />
<mx:Button label=”Clear” click=”output.text =”” />
<mx:Button label=”Clear” click=”output.text =”” />
</mx:ControlBar>
This within the Panel mx:Tag.As below,
<mx:Panel title=”Kumar Gandhi’s Panel” x=”438″ y=”59″>
<mx:TextArea id=”output” width=”385″ height=”220″ />
<mx:TextInput id=”input” width=”385″ />
<mx:ControlBar horizontalAlign=”center” width=”385″>
<mx:Button label=”Clear” click=”output.text =”” />
<mx:Button label=”Clear” click=”output.text =”” />
<mx:Button label=”Clear” click=”output.text =”” />
</mx:ControlBar>
</mx:Panel>
This gives the panel Control bar with buttons..

hey,
could we add btns to header of panel?
yes we can do this, here the header is called titleBar of the Panel.
Code::
var btn:Button;
btn.width=90;
btn.height=50;
var hbox:HBox;
hbox.width=300;
hbox.addChild(btn);
this.titleBar.addChild(hbox);
here this is the Panel , assuming that you use this code inside a Panel., On CreationComplete.

Hi Kumar,
I have tried the code you gave for putting the button on the titlebar of the Panel. But the code is not working. Following is the code I have written:
var btn:Button = new Button;
btn.width=90;
btn.height=50;
var hbox:HBox = new HBox;
hbox.width=300;
hbox.addChild(btn);
this.titlePanel.addChild(hbox);
where titlePanel is the name of the Panel. Can you please help me in this respect.
Thanks,

Hi,
If your Panel is mx:Panel (Halo) you should do this inside the Panel, like, extend the Panel class and access the titleBar property of the Panel inside createChildren method and then add Button(‘s) to it, titleBar is a protected property of the Panel you cannot access it outside the Panel, hence this approach.
it would look something like this
protected override function createChildren():void{
//Create the Buttons
maximizeButton = new Button();
titleBar.addChild(maximizeButton);
}
Or if your Panel is s:Panel (Spark) then you can create a skin for Panel and add buttons to title bar element, there are examples available on web.
hope this helps.
regards,
kumar.
