I have already done this. It is when I try to manage my states out of parentapplication where I get the problem. I use the stateManager.mxml file to handle the states, so I can easily manage the code. When I use the function on my menubar to change the state is where I get the error.
Here is my code main.mxml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" xmlns="*" xmlns:widgets="components.widgets.*" xmlns:stateManager="components.managers.*" layout="absolute"> <!-- SEARCH WIDGET --> <widgets:widgetSearch x="0" y="0" /> <!-- MENU BAR WIDGET --> <widgets:clockWidget x="0" y="50" /> <!-- STATE MANAGER --> <stateManager:stateManager x="0" y="94" id="mainDisplay" /> </mx:Application> stateManager.mxml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" xmlns:contacts="components.views.contacts.*" xmlns:content="components.views.content.*" xmlns:education="components.views.education.*" xmlns:marketing="components.views.marketing.*" xmlns:reports="components.views.reports.*" xmlns:setup="components.views.setup.*" xmlns:today="components.views.today.*" xmlns:tools="components.views.tools.*" xmlns:transactions="components.views.transactions.*" width="100%" height="100%" currentState="EditListing"> <mx:states> <mx:State name="mainState"/> <!-- EDIT LISTING STATE --> <mx:State name="EditListing" id="EditListing" basedOn="mainState"> <mx:AddChild> <transactions:viewEditListing /> </mx:AddChild> </mx:State> <!-- EDIT SALE STATE --> <mx:State name="EditSale" id="EditSale" basedOn="mainState"> <mx:AddChild> <transactions:viewEditSale /> </mx:AddChild> </mx:State> </mx:states> </mx:Canvas> menuHandler function- import components.managers.stateManager; private function menuHandler(event : MenuEvent) : void { stateManager.currentState = [EMAIL PROTECTED]; } ------------------------ Yahoo!
