Flex :: Assign A Button's UpSkin Property With A Remote File Dynamically?

Mar 18, 2010

I am building a Flex application with ActionScript 3. Unfortunately I've hit a wall with this one...I would like to be able to apply an upSkin to my dynamically generated button like this:

//this theSkin variable is dynamic in my app, but for this example it's a simple string
var theSkin:String = "http://www.mypicturedomain.com/images/myimage.gif";
var navBtn:Button = new Button();
navBtn.id = "thumb1";

[code]....

When I attempt this, I get this error:

TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::Loader@3dac941 to Class.

How do I skin this button with my image dynamically? A couple of things to consider:The upSkin image must be remote. It can't be local.The button must be generated dynamically (it's in a for loop).

Actionscript :: Flex - Create Buttons Dynamically And Assign Value From Text File?

Jul 17, 2011

I made a basic text editor that lets users insert predefined strings into the document with button clicks. What I need to do now is let the user define their own buttons and string values. For example I have a button that inserts "Hello" into the text. The user may want to create a button that adds "Goodbye".To accomplish this I figured I would create a .txt file called buttons.txt or something. i would readutfbytee, loop through it to create the buttons. problem is I know what I want to do but not sure where to start

Flex :: Flash - Can No Longer Assign Class Property Values

Nov 1, 2010

Given a dynamic or non-dynamic class like the following:
package {
public class MyClass {
public var myProperty:String;
public var myBooleanProperty:Boolean;
public function MyClass() {}
}}

Flex 3 allows you to assign a value to myProperty like this:
myClassInstance["myProperty"] = "myValue";
myClassInstance["myBooleanProperty"] = true;

I regularly parse XML to get property names and their values then update correlated classes using this technique; however, Flex 4 no longer allows assigning the boolean property. I don't have a work-around.

If you trace the results:
trace(myClassInstance.myProperty) // Returns "myValue"
trace(myClassInstance.myBooleanProperty) // Returns null

Actionscript 3 :: Dynamically Instantiate A Class / Set Property At Runtime In Flex 3?

Feb 17, 2010

Using org.as3commons.reflect I can look-up the class name, and instantiate a class at runtime.I also have (non-working) code which invokes a method. However, I really want to set a property value. I'm not sure if properties are realized as methods internally in Flex.I have a Metadata class which stores 3 pieces of information: name, value, and type (all are strings).I want to be able to loop through an Array of Metadata objects and set the corresponding properties on the instantiated class.[code]I realize that I have to declare a dummy variable of the type I was to instantiate, or use the -inculde compiler directive. An unfortunate drawback of Flex.Also, right now there's code to account for typecasting the value to it's specified type.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Assign A Value To A Property From Within A Method?

May 27, 2009

The question is exactly as the title of this thread states, how do I assign a value to a property from within a method? Before I go into detail, please take into consideration I'm new to actionscript 3.0 and its concept of object oriented programming. Actually I'm not that advanced with actionscript all together.Basically I have two classes, "Main" and "XMLHandler". The purpose of the class XMLHandler is to recieve the file path of an xml file and load it, and then to store the data from the xml file in a property ("_xml") within a class. Main is the document class for my main flash file. In Main I make a instance of XMLHandler and assign the file path via the constructor (I have no idea If I said that right).This is the code from my XMLHandler class:

Code:
package com.handlers
{

Once they do that, I want to change the upSkin color for that row.But it seems like all I can do is specify a CellRenderer Class for the column, not for the row. Or is there a way to specify the style settings for individual CellRenderer instances? I know I can get each instance for each cell (getCellRendererAt).

I have a company's organisational chart in flash where it loads in each person's name dynamically for their department and when you click on it it brings up their CV information such as name, qualifications etc. This is loaded into a dynamic text box. I can test it locally with an xml file and then switch back to the online version.The local version I check by switching to "strXMLpath = "organisation.xml";" where things are laid out as follows:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Assign A Movieclip An Number Value Dynamically?

Aug 1, 2010

I have a problem that should have a simple solution but I cant seem to figure it out. Basically I need to assign a movieclip a number value to that it will carry with it so I can later compare it to the number value of another movieclip.

Here is the snippet of my class code. I got a loop that creates a new object and adds it to the stage and then positions it. It all works accept for when I try to assign the i value to _dragHead.HIT (HIT is not a movieclip nested within the _dragHead object by the way). I just want each newly added movieclip to carry a unique number value so how would I achieve this?

ActionScript Code:
private function createTerms():void
{
for (var i:Number = 0; i < termsArr.length; i++)
