Hi Stacy,
>From what I can gather, It has to do with the icon (ie iconName) not
having an enabled setting on the PNG itself ie:
function refresh():Void
{
var offset:Boolean = getState();
if (enabled == false ) {
viewIcon("disabled");
viewSkin("disabled");
}
else
{
viewSkin(phase);
viewIcon(phase);
}
layoutContents(phase == "down");
if (iconName != undefined) {
iconName.enabled = enabled;
}
}
Which in a nutshell, will inform the "custom" skin of the proposed
disabled state, while at the same time will set the icon itself's
enabled state to false. It being a _resource PNG, will simply look at
the caller with a dumbfounded expression of "well..yeah..but what do
you want me to do about it?" heh.
So yeah, that's "why" from what i can gather.
You can always extend your Button class and put your own:
eg:
<mb:Button label="Test1" id="tmp"
icon="@Embed('testIcon.png')"
enabled="false" />
-- com.mossyblog.controls.Button --
class com.mossyblog.controls.Button extends mx.controls.Button {
function viewIcon(varName:String):Void {
super.viewIcon(varName);
if(varName == "disabled") {
this.iconName._alpha = 20; // give it a "disabled state
here"
}
}
}
