You use the <code>&lt;mx:VBox&gt;</code> tag instead of the <code>&lt;mx:Box&gt;</code> tag as a shortcut to avoid having to set the <code>direction</code> property to <code>&quot;vertical&quot;</code>.  <p><b>Note:</b> Adobe recommends that, when possible, you use the Spark containers with VerticalLayout instead of the Halo VBox container.</p>  <p>An VBox container has the following default sizing characteristics:</p> <table class=&quot;innertable&quot;> <tr> <th>Characteristic</th> <th>Description</th> </tr> <tr> <td>Default size</td> <td>The height is large enough to hold all its children at the default or explicit height of the children, plus any vertical gap between the children, plus the top and bottom padding of the container.
