I'm trying to create a button skin, where i can set fillColors like in a Flex 3 button, using CSS. It was easy to set the color of the gradients, by reading them from the CSS: adding a few lines in updateDisplayList: fillGradient1.color = fillColors[0]; ...
How can i set the colors for the other states, from script? I tried adding fillGradient1.color.down = fillColors[2] and it's not working...
There are styles for over and clicked but no up state.
View 1 RepliesIt's my understanding that view states can be useful when switching the layout of design elements. Such as, a loading page as one state and the main application design in another state. Is this the correct use of them? Additionally, I have a label in State1 and I cannot figure out how to access that label via actionscript. labelID.text = "New Text"; is not working.
View 2 RepliesI'm using Flex 4.5 and trying to take advantage of the new state groups feature. I have two States (call them readType1 and readType2) that both belong to the same stateGroup (call it readOnly). There are several places where I'd like to do something based on the current state, and it would be the same thing for the two read states. [code]...
View 1 RepliesIn my air project i used current state size is width="441" height="358" . i have link button like Singin then move to singin state (currentstate='singin')
<mx:State name="signin">
<mx:SetProperty name="height" value="616"/>
<mx:SetProperty name="width" value="919"/>
So application resize into 616,919 . After that function finished move to current state like(currentstate='') But size not be changed . How can i set the size for current state?
I want to fade all the elements of the next state when transitioning from any state.I tried different things but I can't get it to work. And I don't want to manually add transitions for every state.

<s:Fade target="*" duration="500" />
</s:Transition>
In my view I have a welcome screen:

Which is a pretty small component and I have panelContainer:

Whilst the user is reading the warm and fuzzy welcome note in the welcome state I want to be creating the big expensive panels state so taht when we switch there is no delay. Before the panels state is set panelView is null but I presume there must be an IDefferredInstance floating around somewhere that I can use to kick off the creation of the view. How can I get hold of it?

View 1 RepliesI am having trouble parsing some xml that has a few attribute names with : characters in them. The compiler is not throwing any errors and when I trace my complete xml object out it is all there, however when I try to trace out any element or node it keeps comming up undefined. I removed the attribute names with : characters in them and everything works fine. I cant seem to target the attributes either to delete them.

Flex has an issue with hyphens in xml. I need to generate an xml object with hyphens in the attribute for a Google Checkout implementation.
I can get away with:
var xml:XML = <item-description/>;
and
var xml:XML = <item-description the-name="foo"/>;
but what I need to do is set the value of an attribute like this:
var timestamp:String = methodToGetMyTimestampString();
var xml:XML = <item-desc/>;
xml@start-date = timestamp;
but I can't do that. Since flex doesn't like the hyphens, I don't know how to get or set attributes with hyphens in the name.
I'm using a CSS file to style my flex application. can I use components IDs to change their style from the CSS file? Or I should add the styleName attribute for each element?
View 2 Replieshave an RSS feed, within Flex I have connected to the feed via HTTPService, the XML structure is as follows (not exact, but for the purpose of the question). I am able to walk down the xml and access the data within the title and link nodes with success but when I get the the description node and try to access the img and src attributes within it, I haven't had any success. Reading about parsing with e4x the example I get is:
var xList:XMLList = xData.channel.item.description.(attribute("src"));
or
var xList:XMLList = xData.channel.item.description.(@src);

For example
i want to change

What is the best method to test the existence of an attribute on an XML object in ActionScript 3 ttp://martijnvanbeek.net/weblog/40/testing_the_existance_of_an_attribute_in_xml_with_as3.html is suggesting to test using
if ( node.@test != node.@nonexistingattribute )
and I saw comments suggesting to use:
if ( node.hasOwnProperty('@test')) { // attribute qtest exists }
But in both case, tests are case sensitiveFrom the XML Specs : "XML processors should match character encoding names in a case-insensitive way" so I presume attribute name should also be match using a case-insensitive comparison.

For some reason this seems to no longer work in flex 4, it used to work in flex 3.[code]I am setting the xmlTitle variable outside of the component:<local:Comp xmlTitle="Some Title" />I have tried with getter / setters...etc. It just does NOT update when changing, it shows the default value and never changes. Is this a known new bug in flex 4?
View 2 RepliesUsing e4x in flex:
var attr : String = "foo";
var xml : XML =
<resultSet>
<node foo="1"/>
</resultSet>;
How can I use the variable "attr" to access
xml.node.@foo
I thought I could do it with
xml.node.@[attr]
But this doesn't seem to work. How can I access this attribute by a dynamic value like this?
Both
xml.node.@[attr];
and
xml.node.attribute(attr);
work, as Constantiner suggested.
Updates:
Say I have an XMLList in this form:
var bar:XML =
<resultSet>
<node>value</node>
</resultSet>;
I want to filter the original xml above by matching "foo" attributes with the "value" from node in bar.
Essentially I want a sublist of the original xml such that
xml.node.@foo == bar.value
for each xml row in the original value
As Constantiner mentioned, I can filter the original list by the value in foo, but what if I want to filter on multiple values?
Can I do something like:
xml.node.(bar.node.contains(attribute(foo)) ? attribute(foo) : null);
Or perhaps a cleaner method instead of the null?
I am experimenting with e4x. I could programmatically add an attribute to an Xml by doing something like this :
