Hello Alex, I had the same problem a while back ago. You need to init all the display elements you have from the start of the application. With a viewstack its creationPolicy="all" property. Look in to the documentation for a similar property for TabNavigator.
Hope it helps. Sincerely, Kate AF> Hello, AF> not sure if Flex questions are allowed here? AF> Why can't I refer to the tabs.table.spriteHolder.addChild(sprite); AF> below? If I remove the TabNavigator and all Canvases, then AF> spriteHolder.addChild(sprite); will work just fine: AF> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute" AF> creationComplete="onCreationComplete();"> AF> <mx:Script> AF> <![CDATA[ AF> private function onCreationComplete():void AF> { AF> var sprite:Sprite = new Sprite(); AF> var g:Graphics = sprite.graphics; AF> g.lineStyle(1, 0xFF0000); AF> g.beginFill(0xFF0000); AF> g.drawCircle(200, 200, 20); AF> g.endFill(); AF> tabs.table.spriteHolder.addChild(sprite); AF> } AF> ]]> AF> </mx:Script> AF> <mx:TabNavigator id="tabs" width="100%" height="100%"> AF> <mx:Canvas label="Tab1" width="100%" height="100%"> AF> </mx:Canvas> AF> <mx:Canvas label="Tab2" id="table" width="100%" height="100%"> AF> </mx:Canvas> AF> <mx:UIComponent id="spriteHolder" width="100%" height="100%"/> AF> </mx:TabNavigator> AF> </mx:Application> AF> Regards AF> Alex AF> _______________________________________________ AF> Flashcoders mailing list AF> Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com AF> http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
