ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Use [Embed] Metatag For Button Skinning
Jul 26, 2009
I 4 different images to be used as up, over, donw, disabled skins for a button. I am using [Embed] tag to do this job. I get no errors but the button is not visible either. If I trace x, y, width, height etc of the button, they come fine. Here is my code: Pls suggest, what's going wrong.I have a separate class which simply embeds all PNGs.
Code:
public final class AssetImporter{
[Embed("resources/images/Button_btn_upSkin.png")]
[code].....

I've just started playing about with skinning and am finding it harder than anything else I've come across in Flex 4 Mobile. It needs to be done in actionscript as I am trying to skin a flex mobile button. Here is what I have so far: (It does very little, only changes the background color)
package skins {
import flash.display.GradientType;
import flash.geom.Matrix;
import mx.utils.ColorUtil;
import spark.components.supportClasses.StyleableTextField;
import spark.skins.mobile.ButtonSkin;
[Code] .....
There doesn't seem to be much in the way of documentation for skinning Flex mobile components purely in actionscript. How do we add a border for example?

I came across this piece of code and it intrigued me. I haven't seen skinning like this before. I'd like to know if there are any downsides and alternatives to it. For example, is it cpu intensive like addChild calls are?
<s:Button id="loginoutBtn" right="10" top="10" label="Log out" label.loggedout="Log in" skinClass.loggedin="skins.FBLogoutButtonSkin" skinClass.loggedout="skins.FBLoginButtonSkin" click.loggedin="logout()" click.loggedout="login()"/>

I'm working on a Flash game and I'm using button components in the UI. I like that the key functionality is built into them and that they are fairly easy to skin. The problem is, I need to be able to skin them with a bitmap (specifically a PNG) using AS3. I've found a couple of Flex frameworks out there that might help but we're not using Flex in our development process.

I am trying to load an swf file which has button skins as images (In the library of the swf file i have given export properties which is 'TickMark') and set the skin of a flex button using StyleManager.setStyleDeclaration.I am getting errors like 'Argument count mismatch on TickMark(). Expected 2, got 0.'This is what i am trying to do:
private function init():void
{
loader = new Loader();[code].....
If I use the class GraphicClass in setStyleDeclaration, it works... but basically I want it dynamically.Or there are other easy methods to skin (image) a flex button dynamically?

I am using the following line before my class declaration .
[Embed(source="C:WINDOWSFontsVERDANA.TTF", fontName="VERDANA", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype", flashType = true)]
But there is no change in the appearance of the Text whatsoever.. I need the text to be crisp and clear.Just like the way it looks when we embed the fonts using the Embed... Button in the Flash IDE.

Anyone missed the old simple method for skinning a simple button?
CODE:
The problem im having is that, this method of creating a simple button with skin is being phased out : Infact it is no longer supported in flex 4.5 mobile projects.
So the question: Is there a simple way to perform this, with spark buttons (which is suppose to be the new way to go). As simple as possible.
Basically i only need a button with 2 images : down/over & up. And i want to keep the code as simple as possible : The new skinning methods, seems to really adds way too much lines for something that used to be as simple as the example above.

Is there any solution to dynamic fonts yet. I have tried to write classes and followed so much stuff on various blogs but none of them is working. For example, i'm using a font(which is not installed in most machines) say "abc" on my Input and other TextFields/Combos/Radio etc. Now no matter whatever i do, it uses some default font instead of "abc" if accessed from a PC in which this font isn't installed.
One (bad)solution is to embed fonts using the Embed button in "Properties" FOR EACH TEXT FIELd seperately and increase the file size? Still this way wouldn't work for Combos and radio Btns.

This might seem a silly question but I am sitting here for a few hours wondering how I could change the text color for my components.
For example I have a DropDown Component and I change its skin (all the states) and put in a dark skin (I dragged the component on the stage and edited it). The text on the component, however is black and cannot be read. How could I change the component's text to white.

I must not be searching with the right term because I just can't find this. I did try.I have a simple slideshow SWF that I would like to share by letting people embed it in their own websites by clicking a button on the SWF (or somewhere on my website if need be) that copies the embed code to their clipboard. How do I add the button that copies the embed code to a user's clipboard? I'm using Flash CS4.

I am creating a button. This button will be embeded on several websites but it will have a different link for each website. It wouldn't be realistic to create a different file for every website. Could the link be set in the embed code?

Let's say you have a large number (N) of spark buttons in your app. Let's also say that your buttons all have very similar skins (size, various effects, etc) - the only difference being the specific png that they use as their BitmapImage. Do you end up with N skin files, all differing by 1 line? Or is there a smarter way to do this while not adding a lot of code when you create the buttons in MXML (in fact, ideally, none).

I have the Spark scroll bar in my application skinned the way I want where I use s|VScrollBar and then set skinClass: ClassReference(my skin class) in my CSS file. For my Halo scroll bar I have the skins set for each element of the scroll bar (arrows, thumb, track, etc.) but I want to have one central class like with the Spark scroll bar.

I am trying to programmatically skin a PopUpButton control in Flex Builder, but having no luck. As far as I know this requires writing a custom skin class or creating a modified version the control class itself (since the control is MX and not Spark). Again, just to clarify, I want to programmatically modify the appearance not simply set styling properties or display an image. I've been able to do this programmatically with other MX controls (e.g. tabs in a tab navigator), but not with the PopUpButton.I think part of the problem may be that the control is actually composed of two separate buttons, so you cannot draw just one rectangular area over the whole control.

So, I'm pretty sure this is impossible, but is there any way to "re-skin" the box that pops up asking you if flash should be allowed access to your mic and webcam? I'd really love to make that box fit with the rest of the design of whatever I'm building.
Also, if I have several swfs that use the mic/webcam inside one larger shell swf, will the dialog box appear once for each of the sub-swfs, or just once for the large one, and those settings will be applied to all the sub-swfs?

I am going to use a HSlider to set a range of values. I would like the left thumb to look like ( and the right thumb to lok like ) so they appear to encompass the range like (range) instead of |range|. I only know how to set the skin for SliderThumb which will set the skin for both. Does anyone know of a way to set a different skin for each thumb?

I am having some issues when trying to skin the scrollbar on a horizontalList with Degrafa. The scrollbar doesn't show up at all. I checked to see if the scrollbar is supposed to show up without the skinning, and it does.Here is some code:This is where I define the HorizontalList where I want a skinned scrollbar.[code]I am populating the HorizontalList with more items than are viewable, and like I said before the scrollbar shows up when I remove the skinning.

I have yet to find a good and simple tutorial regaurding the skinning of the scrollBar component so I am trying to fake it...
Simply put I have MC buttons underneath the scroll bar and the bar itself is invisible... I need to know what the name of the actual scrubber bar (the one you drag arround) is called so i can attach a movieClip to it and match it's width/height and X position
does anyone know it? --- or Can someone simply explain how i would go about actually skinning it? Everything i have seen says open haloTheme or sampleTheme and edit those but I just want to change it once (not perminantly).
