[flexcoders] Re: flex2b3 - adding a button to a textinput

Thu, 25 May 2006 01:56:11 -0700

Not sure if i've explained myself clearly, but here's an example in
both flex1.5 and 2.
The flex 1.5 version does exactly what i want.

myTextInput.mxml - flex 1.5
----------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:TextInput xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"
initialize="createButton()">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
       
        private var btn1:Object;
       
      private function createButton():Void
      {
            var oObj = new Object();
            oObj.label = "x";
            oObj.width = 20;
            oObj.borderThickness = 0;
            oObj.cornerRadius = 0;

            createClassObject(mx.controls.Button, "btn1", 19,
oObj);

      }

  ]]>
  </mx:Script>
</mx:TextInput>


testApp.mxml
------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"
xmlns="*">

<myTextInput/>

</mx:Application>


heres the flex2


myTextInput.mxml
----------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:TextInput xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
initialize="createButton()">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
     
      import mx.controls.Button;     

      private var btn1:Button;
     
      private function createButton():void
      {
            btn1 = new Button();
                btn1.label = "x";
            btn1.width = 20;
              
                this.addChild(btn1);
      }

]]>
</mx:Script>
</mx:TextInput>


testApp.mxml
------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" xmlns="*">
     
      <myTextInput />
     
</mx:Application>
