It'll never work. When you're declaring the ViewStack inside your declaration of the LinkBar it becomes a *property* of the LinkBar, but it's not a *child* (in the display-hierarchy-sense) of anything.
<mx:Component> simply creates a new class (and a matching IFactory IIRC), so that unfortunately won't help in this case either. It's for when you want to make a lot of instances of something without the bother of a new MXML file. -Josh On Thu, Nov 6, 2008 at 2:06 PM, sunild999999 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > Just a guess: when you specify the dataProvider that way, maybe need to > put your view > stack inside of a <mx:Component> tag: > > <mx:LinkBar > > <mx:dataProvider> > <mx:Component> > <mx:ViewStack /> > </mx:Component> > </mx:dataProvider> > </mx:LinkBar> > > > --- In [email protected], "valdhor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Hmmm....I would have expected that to work. > > > > It seems you have to specify the dataprovider property as part of the > > LinkBar... > > > > <?xml version="1.0"?> > > <!-- Simple example to demonstrate the LinkBar control. --> > > <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";> > > <mx:Panel title="LinkBar Control Example" height="75%" width="75%" > > horizontalAlign="center" > > paddingTop="10" paddingBottom="10" paddingLeft="10" > > paddingRight="10"> > > <mx:LinkBar color="#0000FF" fontWeight="bold" > > dataProvider="{myViewStack}"/> > > <!-- Define the ViewStack and the two child containers. --> > > <mx:ViewStack id="myViewStack" borderStyle="solid" width="100%" > > height="80%"> > > <mx:Canvas id="search" backgroundColor="#FFFFCC" > > label="Search" width="100%" height="100%"> > > <mx:Label text="Search Screen" color="#000000"/> > > </mx:Canvas> > > <mx:Canvas id="custInfo" backgroundColor="#CCFFFF" > > label="Customer Info" width="100%" height="100%"> > > <mx:Label text="Customer Info" color="#000000"/> > > </mx:Canvas> > > <mx:Canvas id="accountInfo" backgroundColor="#FFCCFF" > > label="Account Info" width="100%" height="100%"> > > <mx:Label text="Account Info" color="#000000"/> > > </mx:Canvas> > > </mx:ViewStack> > > </mx:Panel> > > </mx:Application> > > --- In [email protected], "ilikeflex" <ilikeflex@> wrote: > > > > > > Hi > > > > > > I have below sample code(Code1) which is working fine and i have > > > taken from livedocs.
