Re: [flexcoders] New to Flex - dynamic text in mx:Label?

2007-01-11 Thread Roman Protsiuk 

Hi, Alex.

Tried your example. It works. %)

However, maybe what you need is something like this:

   [Bindable]
   protected function get someText() : String {
   return _someText;
   }

   protected function set someText(value : String) : void {
   _someText = statusToImage(value);
   }

   private var _someText : String;

and:

   mx:Label text={someText} /

This seems pretty flexible to me.

  Hi there,

Given this function:

mx:Script
![CDATA[

private function statusToImage(data:String):String {
return test;
}

]]
/mx:Script

How precisely can I set it as text-generator for a label? I've tried:

mx:Label text={statusToImage('abc')} /

And Flex Builder writes: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method
statusToImage..

Seems it's right above in the same mxml file though!

Thanks in advance.

Would the problem be the manner in which I am invoking it?

mx:DataGridColumn width=90 headerText=Status dataField=status

mx:itemRenderer

mx:Component

mx:VBox 

width=100% height=100% 

horizontalAlign=center verticalAlign=middle



mx:Label text={statusToImage('abc')} /

/mx:VBox

/mx:Component

/mx:itemRenderer

/mx:DataGridColumn

Yes.  An inline renderer creates a sub-component, with its own scope, and it 
does not have direct access to its parent scope.  Use

outerDocument.statusToImage()

 

See this for details:
