Re: [flexcoders] flex2: styles sheets and accessing elements

[Johannes Nel]

hi Manish

this works in my index mxml page in the root of my project (i have not tried it for a deeper nested mxml page yet)
but setting the class name in the constructer of my AS object seems to have no effect, my build is 2.0.197 

here is the constructer for my class, obviously its in a fairly nested
package (doubt that makes a difference) and this class does extend
UIComponent 
        
public function MenuItem()
        {
            super();
            this.className = "MenuItem";
           
           
trace("getStyle >>" + getStyle('background-color') + "@@ "+
getStyle('backgroundColor'));
        }

and here is the stylesheets declaration i am using

MenuItem{
    left-margin:5;
    right-margin:5;
    top-margin:5;
    botton-margin:5;
    background-color:#CEEBF9;
    rollover-color:#8EB0E8;
}

Thanks

you want to use.  In an AS component, you can do this in theconstructor.  In an MXML component, you can assign it on the root tag:  <SomeName className="SomeName" ... >    ...  </SomeName>
we're hoping this requirement will go away before the release.Manish------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~-->Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups. Make Yahoo! your home page
