Dataprovider of tilelist is an httpservice that give to each item render box background color. I want to fade in (alpha from 0 to 1) each item render. I test using this on itemrender: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; width="80" height="50" borderStyle="solid" borderColor="0xffffff" borderThickness="2"> <mx:Fade alphaFrom="0.0" alphaTo="1.0" id="fader" /> <mx:Box backgroundColor="{data.value}" width="100%" height="100%" showEffect="{fader}"/> <mx:Label text="{data.value }" /> </mx:Canvas> But don't work. Any idea? Thanks Giro.
