Not sure which version you are using, but in Flex 2 Beta 2, I also have a component that extends the UIComponent.
When you say you are using the drawing API, I presume you are doing something like this: this.graphics.clear(); this.graphics.beginFill(0xff0000); this.graphics.drawRect(-25, -25, 50, 50); One thought is that you may not be setting the line color or line width. Is that a possibility? Make sure you have something equivalent to this: c.graphics.lineStyle(1, 0xff0000); -Mark leo4beer wrote: >Using the drawing API inside a component. > >Hi, I've made a custom component by extending the UIComponent class, >in my component I've overridden the draw() method and used drawing API >to draw a few lines. >I've embedded my component in an MXML page but I don't see the lines…I >must be doing something wrong, any ideas? > >Thanks in advance, > >Leo. > > > > > > > >-- >Flexcoders Mailing List >FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt >Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com >Yahoo!
