Re: [flexcoders] Custom Panel (with buttons on "title" portion of the border)

[Michael Schmalle]

Hm,

I made my own widow but, if I remeber correctly the 'titleBar' is a UIComponent.

1) In creatChildre() override

        if (!minimizeButton )
        {
            minimizeButton = new Button();
            minimizeButton .styleName = this;
            minimizeButton
.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, minimizeButton_clickHandler);
            titleBar.addChild(minimizeButton );
       }


2) In layoutChrome() override

- you must position the new button and shrink the textfield
Below are the current assets of the tileBar instance

- titleIconObject
- titleTextField
- closeButton

and now;

- minimizeButton

Hope that gets you started,

Peace, Mike

PS I might have missed one or two steps but that is the gist.

            Hello all,

I'm simply trying to get a couple of buttons on a panel (plus and minus
buttons, similar to most Mac software).  I'd like to put it on top
of the title portion of the border, at the top, but of course since I
can't simply change z-order, the button sneaks behind the panel. 
I'm only mildly familiar with creating a custom AS-driven component to
extend Panel, so the actual solution has been alluding me.  I
found something that Jesse Warden has done, but his example was
actually a little over my head.  I'm a Java and AS2 developer, but
a lot of these specific AS3 classes are blocking my road.  

What is the simplest/best way to do this?  

Any help is GREATLY appreciated!


Cheers
