Hello.
Is it possible to assign a radial gradient to the application?

Thanks.

Thanks but no dice.
I tried to explicitly set the dimensions on the mx:Image but still had
the same "flicker" result on the transition. For that matter I tried
to explicitly set the same image dimensions on it's containing mx:Box
and the ViewStack as well... but the same thing happens.

The best short-term workaround I could muster was to set the initial
selectedIndex to the second image which loads it, then set the
ViewStack to it's proper position via a actionscript call later. The
"flicker" behavior is still there, but I think it's slightly less
noticeable on the first image when the application loads then on the
second (but still a bit ugly).

Here's my ViewStack if anyone can see anything wrong with it:

[flexcoders] ViewStack init images problem

2008-07-07 Thread doubleyoucue
Hello,
I'm having a problem with initializing my ViewStack that contains 2
image files on application startup; I'll try my best to explain:
I'm using a ViewStack to hold 2 boxes that each contain a large image
that I'm using for a background. I switch between these images using 2
blur transitions, ideally:
bgImage1->blurOut, blurIn->bgImage2

However, this doesn't work properly the very first time the
application switches between images:
bgImage1->blurOut, [bgImage2-full], blurIn->bgImage2

Though after the first time it works as intended.
I'm trying to get rid of the 'background image #2' flash I'm getting
in between by blur transition.
I've set the ViewStacks creationPolicy to "all", but that has had no
effect.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
