Re: [Flashcoders] Export frame option disabled

2006-06-25 Thread
Mike, that's untrue. Components don't need to be loaded in first frame.

I am writing a program with a lot of components. In my Actionscript
settings, I have the Export frame for classes set to 3. For all my
components Export in first frame is unchecked, as well as all my MovieClip
which need to be exported to Actionscript.

Then I put all my components and MovieClip which will be created by
Actionscript in the fourth frame (on the stage but out of view).

These are the components I use in this movie:
Accordion, Alert, Button, Checkbox, Combobox, Label, List, NumericStepper,
RadioButton, TextArea, TextInput, Tree, Window, and some home made
components.
But I am sure it will work with all of them.

Cheers,

Benjamin.

This is one of the reasons I avoid MM components unless I totally have to.

Most of the components will only work if you export in first frame so the
only option I''ve found is:
- Put your content in an external SWF (which also causes problems because of
a bug with the components needing an instance in the root library if they're
loaded into target MCs). So, you now need to create a Shared Library for the
components and preload them (or if you don't want the hassle of a shared
library, some components get around this bug if you put a _lockroot in the
SWF containing them).

I'd love to hear other peoples solutions to component preloading.

[Flashcoders] Custom RectBorder breaks components background color

2006-06-07 Thread
Hi there,

I made a custom RectBorder class (in fact it does nothing, it uses a 
MovieClip). The borders are drawn as intended but it has a side effect: all 
components backgrounds (except List and Tree!) become white whereas I set them 
to another color.
This is how I set the background color (works when I use the default RectBorder 
but not with mine):
_global.style.setStyle(backgroundColor, 0xFF);
_global.styles.TextInput.setStyle(backgroundColor, 0xFF);
_global.styles.ScrollSelectList.setStyle(backgroundColor, 0xFF); // this 
one always works

And my RectBorder class:

import mx.core.ext.UIObjectExtensions;

class guiTools.skins.RectBorder extends mx.skins.RectBorder
{
 static var symbolName:String = RectBorder;
 static var symbolOwner:Object = RectBorder;
 var className:String = RectBorder;
 // all of these borders have the same size edges, one pixel
 var offset:Number = 1;
 
 function init(Void):Void
 {
  super.init();
 }
 
 function drawBorder(Void):Void
 {
  // the graphics are on the symbols Timeline,
  // so all you need to do here is size the border
  _width = __width;
  _height = __height;
 }
 
 // register ourselves as the RectBorder for all components to use
 static function classConstruct():Boolean
 {
  UIObjectExtensions.Extensions();
  _global.styles.rectBorderClass = RectBorder;
  _global.skinRegistry[RectBorder] = true;
  return true;
 }
 


 static var classConstructed:Boolean = classConstruct();
 static var UIObjectExtensionsDependency = UIObjectExtensions;
}


Did I miss something here ?

Thanks,

Benjamin.
