/This issue originally reported at: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-35049./
In the above JIRA issue, Alex suggested this can be achieve through a new bead implementation. I spent sometime today to create a new bead which suppose to avail the feature in both SWF and HTML run. The bead class I have also attached to the JIRA issue, requesting yours review. Following is a basic usage to the bead class: // in MXML body <js:TextInput id="myTI2" text="Hello FlexJS!"> <js:beads> <js:PNDisabledInputBead id="disabledBead"/> </js:beads> </js:TextInput> <js:TextButton text="Enable/Disable input field" click="textbutton1_clickHandler(event)"/> ... // Changing the enable/disable state by script protected function textbutton1_clickHandler(event:org.apache.flex.events.MouseEvent):void { disabledBead.enabled = !disabledBead.enabled; } ... // You can also directly declare the state value to the bead in following way <js:beads> <js:PNDisabledInputBead id="disabledBead" enabled="false"/> </js:beads> Thanks! -- View this message in context: http://apache-flex-development.2333347.n4.nabble.com/FlexJS-Probable-design-to-support-enable-disable-state-to-TextInput-tp58081.html Sent from the Apache Flex Development mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
