yeah i've tried that. but only seems to work for static data. i've added nathan's method to the custom renderer's creationComplete & it works fine when the data is static (see snippet below). but as soon as i start pulling the xml from a java server via cf, i start getting "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at graphicRenderer/___HBox1_creationComplete()." errors. there's a text widget in the same renderer that displays the text fine. <mx:HBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; width="400" height="40" creationComplete="convertToImage(data.swatchLegend);"> private function convertToImage(hex:String):void { var b:Base64Decoder = new Base64Decoder( ); b.decode(hex); var bA:ByteArray = b.flush(); var l:Loader = new Loader(); l.loadBytes( bA); var img:Image = new Image(); img.addChild(l); this.addChild(img); } <mx:Text text="{data.label}" height="30"/> -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
