Thanks to everybody on the list.
It seems that it was a bit of misunderstanding. I was trying to create
a Canvas component and to be able to fill the background with gradient
but to specify more then 2 colors, like it is possible with let's say
Button component.
So I tried using LinearGradient class from mx.graphics. Like this :
<mis:MyCanvas width="200" height="100" borderStyle="solid"
borderThickness="10" cornerRadius="10">
<mis:fill>
<mx:LinearGradient>
<mx:entries>
<mx:GradientEntry color="green" ratio="0" alpha=".5"/>
<mx:GradientEntry color="red" ratio=".33" alpha=".5"/>
<mx:GradientEntry color="blue" ratio=".66" alpha=".5"/>
</mx:entries>
</mx:LinearGradient>
</mis:fill>
</mis:MyCanvas>
So Ely, I was going for the mx.graphics classes :-)
Dirk, thanks for the great example of doing this using skins, but this
time I wanted to try this approach.
I guess it depends on what needs you have, in my case I can easily
change the Linear Gradient to Radial, in Dirks case it's easier to
skin more then just the canvas.
And finally, my code was just fine but stupid me I was doing
beginFill, endFill and then draw the shape :-)
Thanks again guys,
Cristian Pop
