Application.applicationComplete http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/langref/mx/core/Application.html#eventS ummary Fires right after creationComplete, but the stage property will be available. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Anderson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Friday, April 04, 2008 8:13 PM Subject: [flexcoders] When can I access the Stage Object? Hello All, In my main <mx:Application> I am attempting to add an Event Listener to the Stage Object, after the CreationComplete Event is triggered. Upon application startup, I get that wonderful error dialog stating: "Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference." I want to play around with some validate() stuff, in order to speed up my Flex Resizing issues. This is what I have for my code: private function onApplication_CreationComplete( event:FlexEvent ):void { stage.addEventListener( Event.RESIZE, onStage_Resize ); } private function onStage_Resize( event:Event ):void { this.validateNow(); } So the question is, is the Stage Object not yet available? Do I need to place this Event Listener on a Child Object contained within my Application? Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated :) Mike ------------------------------------ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.comYahoo!
