Without much code could it be as simple as adding this or parent?

background.width = this.width; // Here is the ERROR

background.width = parent.width; // Here is the ERROR

I am trying to simply add a TileList component to my application.

The error I am getting is that nasty Error: #1009:









Main Thread (Suspended: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object

reference.)






fl.containers::BaseScrollPane/drawBackground






fl.controls::TileList/draw






fl.core::UIComponent/callLaterDispatcher











After review, the error occurs in the

fl/containers/BaseScrollPane.as file on line 983. This is because the following

method:








var

bg:DisplayObject = background;









background = getDisplayObjectInstance(getStyleValue("skin")); // This returns a NULL









background.width

= width; // Here is the ERROR

because I try to use a property of a NULL object.

I figured that

this is something to do with the application trying to draw the TileList before

its time, or something to that effect. I have no trouble adding a

TileList component using Flash CS3 but in this application it is complete as

with NO Flash intervention nor any MXML files, therefore dragging a component

to the stage is not an option.

Has anyone run

into a similar issue. In the above example, I am simply using an AS file

attempting to add a TileList component to the stage. When I invoke the

addChild(TileListComponentInstance) is when I get the above error. If I comment

out this line (addChild) I will not get an error.!?!?









HEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!
