RE: [flexcoders] How do you store and then retrieve the backcolor of something

You can create a variable at application level and store values in there.  You can write some code to back up styles and retrieve later. I am giving following example for just idea, it is not production quality code....It can be more generic and better...
 
 
 
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml">
    <mx:Script>
        var stylesBackup = new Object();
       
        function backupStyle(obj, styleProp):Void
        {
            if(!stylesBackup[obj])
            {
                stylesBackup[obj] = {};
            }
 
            stylesBackup[obj][styleProp] = obj.getStyle(styleProp)
        }
 

        function retrieveStyle(obj, styleProp):Void
        {
            obj.setStyle(styleProp,stylesBackup[obj][styleProp]);
        }
       
       
    </mx:Script>
    <mx:TextInput id="_ta" text="some text" color="0xFF0000" creationComplete="backupStyle(event.target, 'color');"/>   
    <mx:Button label="Change Color" click="_ta.setStyle('color', 0x00FF00);"/>
    <mx:Button label="Retrieve Color" click="retrieveStyle(_ta, 'color');"/>
   
</mx:Application>
 
hope it helps..

Subject: [flexcoders] How do you store and then retrieve the backcolor of something

I am asking because what I want to do is change the color of a button to a different color but later on reset it to its original color. How do you first store the value of the original color and how do you call it back later?
