Right idea, wrong event. Use creationComplete (another might work, but this is the safest):
<mx:RichTextEditor id="my_rte" width="100%" height="100%" creationComplete="hideMofos()"/> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Bray" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Flashcoders mailing list" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, December 13, 2005 8:36 PM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Flexbuilder 2: how can I hide subcontrols oftheRichTextEditor? Thanks, Jesse. Now, what if I want to hide those mofos automagically when the app loads so the user never sees them? I've been trying to call the hideMofos() method like this: <mx:RichTextEditor title="Input" id="my_rte" width="100%" height="100%" initialize="hideMofos()"/> But I get a runtime error that makes me think I need to wait for those subcontrols to initialize.
