This example shows how you would set the scroll position of a scrollable 
component to the max scroll position in Flex 3 and how it is handled in Flex 4.

// Flex 4
// myView = Some view class.
// myScroller = s:Scroller
// myContentContainer = s:Group

var maxScrollPosition:Number = myView.myContentContainer.height - myView.myScroller.viewport.height;
myView.myScroller.viewport.verticalScrollPosition = maxScrollPosition;

The SkinnableItemRenderer is used exactly like s:ItemRenderer.  The difference being SkinnableItemRenderer
allows you to use SkinPart metadata in your ItemRenderer definition.  As a result of being able to skin the
item renderer, the autoDrawBackground capabilities are lost as the super class is no longer Group/GroupBase.  
This is the only lost functionality in SkinnableItemRenderer.  The example Flex project is in the repository, 
which includes the examples below.
