Completely off the top of my head and untested, but this is how you do it. This will create a path from (10, 10) to (20, 10). M is the equivalent of graphics.moveTo and L is the equivalent of graphics.lineTo.

Not sure if the fill will create anything because the path is technically 0px tall, so you might have to add a L 20 11 L 10 11, but this is enough to give you an idea. Alternatively, using Spark Stroke may do the same without the added lines.

<s:Graphic>
    <s:Path data="
            M 10 10
            L 20 10"/>
        <s:fill>
            <s:SolidColor color="#000000"/>
        </s:fill>
    </s:Path>
</s:Graphic>

You can bind data within the data tags as well, so you could do a data="M 0 0 L {this.width} {this.height}" to go from corner to corner (and have it auto-scale with the window)
