I have a BorderContainer with a Label inside. I need this Label to be centered inside the container. BorderContainer has no layout (I guess it getst the default one, basicLayout...).
My code:
BorderContainer's definition:
<s:BorderContainer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
[code].....
Here's my test application:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"[code]....
I would expect the mask to be applied when the checkbox is selected, and removed when it issin't. But it doesn't seem to work.However, when you change to , it works like a charm. Can anyone explain to me why?
Note: In my actual application, i'm applying this in a skin to a component that is extending SkinnableComponent which can't use BorderContainer so a solution to this would be great.
I am searching for a way to have my spritevisualelement have round corners so that it is displayed in a circular shape.The SpriteVisualElement contains a Video Stream from FMS to display but I do not want it to be rectangular.[code] But the Container keeps being in the background and the whole remote Video which is displayed in the "vid" (=id) is in the foreground.How can I set the Container to be in Foreground? then just setting whole application background would do the job.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to change the background color and or text color of a BorderContainer in flex 4 using Action Script, but have not idea how to. The Border Container component doesn't seem to have any properties like:
idname.color = "#333333";
idname.backgroundcolor = "#333333";
How might I go about doing this?
I need to round at only the top or bottom of a border container not all four corners, is their some CSS that I can use or do I have to create two new skins. I was reading their used to be a property for this for HBox back in the old days, is their not a property for BorderContainer now?

View 2 RepliesI would like to have a bordercontainer in Flex, that the user can resize on his own with 8 dots in the top left, top, top right, left, right, bottom left, bottom and bottom right (like MS Paint etc.) Does Flex have a default solution for this, or do I have to write it myself?
View 1 RepliesHow to create horizontal layout container like HGroup but with border and border radius?In this example there is some default height:

I want it to have height of the heighest element in container. Like in HGroup. Add: Why is height for above example BorderContainer equal to 112 ?

i'm desperately trying to set my border container the highest z-index so it will always appear on top.
how can I know how many objects are in my flex stage, so i'll be able to set the bordercontainer the highest depth? what shell i write in the depth property in order the border container would always be on top? (it's important to mention that i created dynamic objects)
<s:BorderContainer includeIn="state2" width="200" height="200" backgroundColor="#992F2F"
horizontalCenter="-61" verticalCenter="23" depth.state2=currentState.num>
</s:BorderContainer>
protected function lbHideQuery_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
if (lbHideQuery.selected)
{

Is there a way to easily specify on which sides a border is drawn for Flex 4's Spark BorderContainer?[URL]But that uses MX styling which seems like a hack. Is there a better or 'correct' way without having to build a skin? It seems incredibly silly to build a skin for a 'Bordered' component when this is a very common use case.
View 1 RepliesI have a component where a Button is wrapped in BorderContainer. I'm passing a custom property to the component at run-time to change the label of the button but Flex is reporting the following error:

I have lots of child text inputs within a spark Scroller. How can I make the TextInput with id of "x" come into focus if I have a..z id's, also for the scrollbar to scroll automatically to that child item? I can use x.setFocus(), but the scrollbar doesn't automatically scroll to that item? why?
<s:Scroller id="scroller" width="100%" height="100">
<s:Group id="group" width="100%" height="100" id="content">

Seemingly randomly, my all of my static text in my swf gets shifted down 10 or so pixels. I go back to my FLA, and everything is lined up. what could be going on?
This morning I walk in, and all my text is shifted IN my fla, which i definitely did not do.
I am doing a map (bit like Google Maps) where the user can zoom in and out. They can also move the map up/down/left/right.how do I make sure the zoom is always from the center of my display window, even when the map is off center.I know how to do it with zooming in/out on the mouse position but I cannot figure out how to do it based on my display window.I have the map inside a movieClip (mapMC) under a mask (maskMap)So how do I calculate the internal and external point before applying them to the MatrixTransformer
ActionScript Code:
MatrixTransformer.matchInternalPointWithExternal(matrix, internalPoint, externalPoint);
By default I had 2 movieclips on first frame on the main timeline. And an actionscript code for first two movieclips.They are kept on each individual layer. They were working just fine but when I shifted all three keyframes from first to second frame on the maintime line. It doesn't works properly. The reason why I'm shifting them to next keyframe is because I wan't to insert a pre-loader on first frame.[code]

I was wondering if its possible to make a website fall asleep when the focus is shifted away from the entire window.... so something like onBlur. I've seen this on a few websites and I got thinking how they did it. I'm guessing they have some kind of JavaScript code in their HTML page that can detect an onBlur or killFocus or whatever you call it - then the flash movie picks up on this and takes the appropriate action - like pauses a movie or displays a message "please come back" or things to that effect.
EXAMPLE: Go to [URL] and go to the WANDER AWAY section and click his links. Provided you have enough "money" (you can earn "money" by navigating around) you'll be taken to pixel ranger etc. Now click on the [URL] window and you'll see its been greyed out and is "asleep". You have to click the movie to awaken the site.
I'm creating a bordercontainer on runtime:
var bcArtist:BorderContainer = new BorderContainer();
var imgArtist:Image = new Image();
var lblArtist:String = new String();
bcArtist.id = artistXML.pk_artist_id;
bcArtist.width = 75;
bcArtist.layout = VerticalLayout;
But the last line gives this error:
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Class to an unrelated type spark.layouts.supportClasses:LayoutBase.
I'm programmatically creating a spark BorderContainer in ActionScript and filling it with a few labels. After I make it visible, it's width is 298 pixels. However, I only know this because I'm taking a screenshot and measuring the width. If I trace() the width, or explicitWidth, or measuredWidth, or getExplicitOrMeasuredWidth(), or getLayoutBoundsWidth() ... ad nauseum ... the reported width is always 42 pixels. Without fail. how the hell I can get the width that is visible on the screen? It's absolutely ridiculous how easy this should be, but isn't.

I need to create subscript text for mobile. I read at [URL} that label's baselineShift property is not supported on the mobile theme. So I created a plain mobile project using the default mobile theme with a couple of test labels and in the FB 4.5 emulator the baselineshift worked fine.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to change a frame label within a gotoAndStop('label') with the parameters in a function?I'm playing around with updating code as I learn more and more techniques, and at the moment the code is a basic click-a-button to select the object shape, and on press the button disappears:
// Change the object into a circle.
circle_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,function(){changeShape_fun(circle_btn,circle);});
// Change the object into a square.
square_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,function(){changeShape_fun(square_btn,square);});

However I can't/don't seem to know how to change a frame label through function parameters, or if what I'm trying to do is even possible.Also to note, while I'm all ears for any more efficient ways of doing what I'm trying to do, I would still like to know how/if you can change frame labels through function parmeters.
