RE: [flexcoders] f2b3 setting width / height as a percentage in AS3

[Gordon Smith]

In ActionScript you must write       myUIObject.percentWidth = 100;   because the 'width' property is now typed as Number.   The MXML compiler translates the attribute       < ... width="100" ... >   into       myUIObject.width = 100;   and the attribute       < ... width="100%" ... >   into       myUIObject.percentWidth = 100;   - Gordon   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Paul BH Sent: Thursday, June 15, 2006 12:53 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] f2b3 setting width / height as a percentage in AS3   Hi, in Flex 1.5 I could write in my actionscript code something like: myUIObject.width = "100%"; and it would display just as if I had written: <whatever id="myUIObject" width="100%"/> is there a way to do this in AS3? The compiler isnt too happy with me trying to set width to a string... ta PBH __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Web site design development Computer software development Software design and development Macromedia flex Software development best practice YAHOO!
