          "description": "Use absolute layout for the contents of this container. You are responsible for explicitly specifying the position of each child.  <p>The easiest way to do this is to specify the <code>x</code>, <code>y</code>, <code>width</code>, and <code>height</code> of each child.</p>  <p>The <code>width</code> and <code>height</code> can be specified as a percentage value in MXML. (In ActionScript you have to set the <code>percentWidth</code> and <code>percentHeight</code> properties.)</p>  <p>If you don't specify the <code>width</code> or <code>percentWidth</code> for a child, then its <code>measuredWidth</code>, as automatically determined by its <code>measure()</code> method, will be used. The same applies for its height.</p>  <p>As an alternative way of doing layout, you can use the anchor styles <code>left</code>, <code>top</code>, <code>right </code>, <code>bottom</code>, <code>horizontalCenter</code>, and <code>verticalCenter</code> on children to anchor them to the sides or the center of a container.</p>  <p>When you use absolute layout, the container's <code>paddingLeft</code>, <code>paddingTop</code>, <code>paddingRight</code>, <code>paddingBottom</code>, <code>horizontalGap</code>, <code>verticalGap</code>, <code>horizontalAlign</code>, and<code>verticalAlign</code> styles are ignored.</p>",
