How to create an AttributeInspector outside of the map in flex viewer?

Question

I need to create an AttributeInspector at the bottom of the flex viewer�??s map window, I want it to be outside of the InfoWindow �?? separate from the viewer�??s map.

Actually, I want it to be similar to the Flex API�??s sample, �??Attribute Inspector outside of the map�?� which is in the category of �??Components�?� (see below).  Where should I insert my code in flex viewer? Thanks!

Thank you very much!
If the feature layer is added to the config.xml file (as below),  <layer label="Parcel Layer" type="feature" visible="false" alpha="1.0"
               url="http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/HomelandSecurity/operations/MapServer/2"/>

how do I access or control this featrue layer from index.mxml? Thanks!

Mike,

You need to get an instance of the map and then loop though the layers looking for the layer you are interested in.import com.esri.ags.Map;
import com.esri.viewer.ViewerContainer;
var map:Map = ViewerContainer.getInstance().mapManager.map;
