Although there is an MX HRule component, there is not a Spark equivalent. You could still use the mx component, but it’s better to use a vector graphic for something as simple as a straight line – particularly if you’re building a mobile application.
For a horizontal rule, you can simple set the width of the line, the color, and the weight (stroke/thickness).
1 2 3 4 5 | <s:Line width="100%"> <s:stroke> <s:SolidColorStroke color="0x000000" weight="2"/> </s:stroke> </s:Line> |
You can also draw a line from point to point:
1 2 3 4 5 | <s:Line xFrom="10" xTo="20" yFrom="10" yTo="20"> <s:stroke> <s:SolidColorStroke color="0xFF0000" weight="1"/> </s:stroke> </s:Line> |
