nice demo! I was trying to attact a flex UIcompoent as the display element.. but that does not seem to work..
have you tried setting the display with a canvas or a button or anyother interactive objects in flex?

You can bind an image to a rectangle particle. I have done it like this before:

floor = new RectangleParticle(xFloor,yFloor,1400,100,0,true, 1, .2,0);
floor.init();
floorimage = new Loader();
floorimage.load(new URLRequest(”http://manewc.com/projects/flash/i/Grass.jpg”));
floor.setDisplay(floorimage, -350, -50);
addParticle(floor);

you can see it here:

Is it possible to attach an displayObject to anything other than a WheelParticle? I want to bound one to a RectangleParticle, but it doesn’t seem to have a method to do so…
