RE: [flexcoders] When are Accordian Components instantiated?

[Gordon Smith]

Setting creationPolicy="all" is ALMOST NEVER the right thing to do in Flex. It disables the Deferred Instantiation feature, which enables Flex apps to minimize their startup time by not instantiating components until the user can see them. Declare a Boolean var on the second pane to store the enabled flag for the component; you can set this flag at any time, including before the component is instantiated. Bind the enabled property of the component to this flag.   - Gordon   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Steve Cox Sent: Tuesday, September 26, 2006 8:22 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] When are Accordian Components instantiated?   Add creationPolicy="all" to the accordion.   This will make it create all the children at initial load. You can also set it to queued, check out creationPolicy in the docs   HTH Steve   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Wally Randall Sent: 26 September 2006 16:09 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com Subject: [flexcoders] When are Accordian Components instantiated?   Problem: I have a form with an accordian component. As the workflow progresses I need to enable buttons and components in accordian panels which have not yet been openned. That is not possible until the panel containing the component is openned. Can someone explain how the accordian component instantiates panel components? Do you have a suggestion for how to enable a component that has not been instantiated? __._,_.___ -- 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 Software development tool Software development Software development services Home design software Software development company Your email settings: Individual Email|Traditional Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!
