Hello all,
I want to extend the RichTextEitor and I have a problem(s) with doing so. So I
wrote A action script class trying to extend the Rich Text Editor. I wanted to
just add a text box to the toolbar but am getting errors, here is my code:
ackage com.DaNaTiRTE
{
import mx.controls.RichTextEditor;
import mx.controls.TextInput;
public class DRTE extends RichTextEditor
{
public function DRTE()
{
//TODO: implement function
super();
}
private var _width:int;
private var _height:int;
public function SetItems():void
{
var t:TextInput = new TextInput();
t.width = 40;
this.toolbar.addChild(t);
}
}
}
I wanted to do somthing like this when I call the code
var a:DRTE = new DRTE();
a.SetItems();
addChild(a);
When I do the (a.SetItems) I get an error "Error #1009: Cannot access a
property or method of a null object reference.".
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong, and if so what I need to be doing
correctly? I want to not just build this code but understand how to extend
components.
Thanks for the help and read.
