Josh,
I can answer the first part: by setting a reference to component as a
property of another component when you instantiate the components. From
your description, I'm guessing you application needs to look something like
this:
MainApp.mxml
<mx:Application>
<mx:TabNavigator>
<local:ViewOne id="View1"/>
<local:ViewTwo id="View2" view1="{View1}"/>
</TabNavigator>...
Components:
ViewOne.mxml
<mx:Panel>
<mx:Label id="CatalogHeading" width="100" />....
ViewTwo.mxml
<mx:Panel>
<!-- properties -->
<mx:Object id="view1" />
<!-- you can now reference objects by ID in ViewOne as properties of the
view1 object -->
<mx:Label id="CartHeading" width="{view1.CatalogHeading.width}" />....
does that make sense?
Robert

Subject: [flexcoders] Visibility and Misc. Component Events
If an object in one custom component needs to access an object in
another custom component, how can they see each other if they're in
two different files?
For example, say I have an accordion in one file, and a TabNavigator
in another file. When the user selects a particular Panel in the
Accordion, it should bring a particular tab to the front, and when
the user selects a particular tab in the TabNavigator, it should
display a particular panel in the Accordion. How can the components
in one file know about the components in another? And what are the
events that bring a tab to the front and that display an Accordion
panel?
Also, how do you access a particular node in a Tree? How do you
automatically expand all nodes?
Sorry for these basic questions!
Thanks,
josh
