Thanks for your comment, Gordon. I know I could just specify its id, if the <mx:Image> (whatever components) and function are all in one document(MXML file). My case is not the case, actually. Let me explain more, and any suggestion would be welcomed :)
======= My application is pretty much based on Cairngorm 0.99. Main.mxml(main application) includes several custom components. Say, Main.mxml is consists of three parts, MyHeader(header), BodyCanvas(body), MyController(control tools on footer). MyHeader, BodyCanvas, MyController all are custom components and they all have own ViewHelper(MyHeaderViewHelper.as, BodyCanvasViewHelper.as, MyControllerViewHelper.as). Note that, there are several buttons on MyContoller so that user can click them to control appearance of BodyCanvas (ie.change selectedChild of ViewStack on the BodyCanvas, etc...). When user clicks a button on MyController, a function in MyControllerViewHelper will be invoked. And the function should specify a component in BodyCanvas. That's why I had to use such long dotted expression... (Actually I didn't like that way since i love the word 'decoupled' :) ) If you have other intelligent way to do same thing, please let me know. ** fontSize prop on <mx:Image> is meaningless, that was just for my simple test, sorry.
