ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing A Button In An Mxml Component From Other
Aug 1, 2009
I have a two components Test_Interface.mxml & teacher_fullscreen.mxml. I called teacher_fullscreen.mxml from Test_Interface.mxml by
[Code]...
Now I created an instance of Test_interface in my 2nd mxml by
Code: public var par:Test_Interface=new Test_Interface(); Actually, I wanted to disable a button in Test_interaface.mxml with id = "b1" from my 2nd mxml using the object created above. So I gave par.b1.enabled=false; It did not give any compile errors but during run time cannot access object or method of null reference sandbox error was returned for the statement par.b1.enabled=false. So how do I change the property of a button in one component from other.

I've been trying to create a custom mxml component that extends another custom mxml component (i.e.MyMXMLComponent -> BaseMXMLComponent -> Group). I've been reading that trying to add visual children to MyMXMLComponent caused error with Flex 3 but that's no longer the case with Flex 4.
What I want to know is whether this is a supported/fixed/documented feature of Flex 4? or just some undefined behavior in Flex 4 that may get changed with future updates?
if this is supported and documented feature, does anyone have link pointing to adobe document stating it as such?

I'm trying to do this using only mxml, no <script> tags, although I don't necessarily need a solution that's only mxml. It was more of an educational exercise to see if I could do it all in mxml. I have a custom component that has a slider and textinput and their value/text properties are bound together. I'm surfacing a few properties of the slider in my component so that it can sort of be treated like a slider.

I have two components. One is called "InsideComp" and one is called "OutsideComp". OutsideComp has InsideComp as one piece of its component, and in my main MXML file, I have embedded an instance of OutsideComp. How do I access a public variable of InsideComp within my main MXML file?In Actionscript, I could just do something like:OutsideComp.InsideComp.valToChange = 5; But I dont know how to do it in MXML. I know this is probably an easy question.

I am trying to create my first real world Flex application. I will have a lot of different data entry / data view screens so I thought I would create many different components to deal with each different type of data that was being returned. I have a MXML application called Layout, and have component called "Navigator" which controls the menu, as well as a ViewStack called "MainContent".
I want the Navigator component to change the ViewStack on the Layout application to that of another Component (each Component is embedded within the Canvas of each ViewStack). I have a click handler on my Navigator which looks like this: Layout.ContentFrame.selectedChild=event.itemRenderer.data.clickValue; However it shows the error "Access of possibly undefined property ContentFrame through a reference with a static type Class." Is my approach a good way of doing it? I have attempted referencing it using FlexGlobals.Layout and topLevelApplication.Layout... neither of which work?[URL]

I would like to provide my own sortItemRenderer within an AdvancedDataGrid like so:
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid sortItemRenderer="MyRenderer"></mx:AdvancedDataGrid>
MyRenderer is a class that I wrote, but Flex doesn't see it and gives "defintion not found" error, because it is not within the mx namespace. What is a clean way to make this to work?

I have written "components" in external .mxml files like dialogs and such. For example, GamePropertiesDialog.mxml. These components are used by another file, Main.mxml for example. If I instantiate a GamePropertiesDialog I am unable to access its pieces like a textbox with an id of GameName until AFTER I add the dialog to the display list.Doesn't work:
Actionscript Code:
var tmp:GamePropertiesDialog = new GamePropertiesDialog();tmp.GameName.text = 'test';addChild(tmp);
Does work: Actionscript Code:
var tmp:GamePropertiesDialog = new GamePropertiesDialog();addChild(tmp);tmp.GameName.text = 'test';

How do I say an MXML component is inside some package? Well, it's in a different folder... I know how to do it ActionScript... But when I do in MXML I don't declare the package explicitly because I don't know how, and when I call it to my application, it states that The prefix "package" for element "package:Component" is not bound.

I am actually in the process of Architectural of our project. We have choosen Mate framework. The project is not so quite complex, but what advantages i would get over MXML when i choose Modules.
Main App - > Views - > Events - > Maps - > Services [PHP or Java]
When i come up with Modules based Architecture, it seems to be good but i doubt it should not end up with tight coupling and unwanted issues which may break the head later to solve.
Main APP - > Modules - > Module Interface -> Events - > Maps - > Services
[PHP or Java]
What advantages i do get if i choose Modules over MXML Component? What is the prefered and the best way to Architect an FlexApplication? Since the Application is going to communicate with Backend, do we need to make the frontend more complex?

In our flex application we have tabs at the main level and under it we have subview.e.g
Home / Tasks / Admin etc...
In one condition we have to click on a button and open a new tab, on this tab we have to add an existing mxml component and show it in the tab.We are using parsley as the framework. Inside the mxml component test.mxml(that is shown in the tab) i am configuring it with parsley using the tag.Now when i add the instance of this test.mxml i am getting an exception. I am deriving this test.mxml instance using teh parsley context
as
context.getObject(id of component) as DisplayObject and adding it to the tabNavigator...
But i am getting exception when i try to grab an instance of a view using parsley context. How do i get an instance of a view or component that is configure through parsley using the parslye context.Also the problem is occuring becuase of the view injection..because i get a parsley excepiton on startup of the application stating that there is some problem in the context.

I'm using several custom MXML components in my Flex 4.5 application.They all use absolute coordinates to place Image, Label, Line, etc. components and are currently based on a spark.components.BorderContainer:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:BorderContainer
xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" [code]....
Then I've realized, that I probably don't have to use BorderContainer, because I don't draw/need any borders around my custom components.But I don't know, what to take instead of it.I've tried taking <mx:UIComponent> (and removing <s:Layout> tag above), but then I get the error:
'Image' declaration must be contained within the <Declarations> tag since it does not implement 'mx.core.IUIComponent'.
'Label' declaration must be contained within the <Declarations> tag since it does not implement 'mx.core.IUIComponent'.
Is there some simplest possible spark "container"? And do I need a "container" at all if I use (and want to use) absolute coordinates?
