The text for the copy() method is as follows: " This method is designed for copying data objects, such as elements of a collection. It is not intended for copying a UIComponent object, such as a TextInput control. If you want to create copies of specific UIComponent objects, you can create a subclass of the component and implement a clone() method, or other method to perform the copy. "
Do I really have to make a custom ActionScript component (class) in order to make it possible to "clone" the component? - Travis --- In [email protected], "Tom Ortega" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > mx.utils.ObjectUtil.copy is what you're looking for, I believe. > > http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/mx/utils/ObjectUtil.html#copy() > > > On 9/25/06, Travis Anderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > When I started this, I thought it would be simple, but I'm having a > > hard time finding documentation on it. > > > > I'm trying to duplicate an object.
