"Elementary, my dear Watson". Create a directory named "flexlib" inside your src directory. Inside that directory create a new directory named "controls". Place the PromptingTextInput.as file inside this directory.
To use the control, first add the namespace to the component you wish to use it with (Or the Application)... xmlns:flexlibcontrols="flexlib.controls.*" Secondly, instantiate the control in MXML... <flexlibcontrols:PromptingTextInput prompt="Prompt Goes Here"/> So, a full application example could look like: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute" xmlns:flexlibcontrols="flexlib.controls.*"> <flexlibcontrols:PromptingTextInput prompt="Prompt Goes Here"/> </mx:Application> HTH Steve --- In [email protected], Angelo Anolin <angelo_ano...@...> wrote: > > Hi FlexCoders, > > I have been browsing out the Flexlib in Google Code and I am thinking of using just some of the controls, particularly the Propt TextInput control. > > I have downloaded the ZIP file and have extracted the same. > > As I am using more of the command line compiler in Vista, how do I use only the PromptingTextInput control?
