Hello,
I'm a noob in flex. I have no training on it but I try to learn it as
much as I could.
I think my problem is simple to you guys.
I have this in my main.mxml code
<mx:Image x="204" y="7" source="images/new.gif" visible="false"
id="imgNewMessage"/>
Now, if I reference it in an action script file like so...
imgNewMessage.visible=false;
it works fine.
But if I try to do that in a custom control, like this
package mycontrol.containers
{
import mx.controls.Alert;
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
import flash.utils.Timer;
.
.
.
public function doSomething():void {
imgNewMessage.visible=false;
}
}
I'm getting an error. Its like it does'nt know imgNewMessage.
How can I reference it? I thought components are accessible globally.
Hope you guys can help.
Thanks in advance.
