Not sure what exactly you're having problems with.
If you want the component (on stage) to be interactive, that's not going to
work (AFAIK).
You could create a paramater available in the Property Inspector to toggle info
on and off.
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class LivePreviewTest extends MovieClip {
private var __showInfo:Boolean = false;
function LivePreviewTest() {
}
private function setShowInfo() {
trace("LivePreviewTest ::: setShowInfo");
trace(" - showInfo: "+__showInfo);
}
[Inspectable(defaultValue="false",enumeration="true,false")]
function get showInfo():Boolean {
return __showInfo;
}
function set showInfo(val:Boolean):Void {
__showInfo = val;
if(_global.isLivePreview) setShowInfo();
}
}
regards,
Muzak
