RE: [flexcoders] adding effects in action script

2006-09-27 Thread Gordon Smith 












 Do you know of any metrics round this?



Sorry, I don't have any. But calling setStyle() on a single control
shouldn't be particularly expensive. Calling setStyle() on a class selector or
the global selector would be, though, because it affects multiple components.

Thanks guys!

Both ways work! (Slight syntax error in John's example, but was easy to work
out)

@Gordon: the docs on setStyle say Calling the setStyle() method can
result in decreased performance. Use it only when necessary.

Hi

I am creating an Image in Script and then adding it to a tile.
I have added an event listner to the complete event of the image
that switches visible to true

I would like to add a showEffect to the image, but can't see how to do it...

Here is a snippet of code:
=
var imgNewImage:Image = new mx.controls.Image();

imgNewImage.addEventListener(complete,imageCompleteHandler);

imgNewImage.source = [Source URL of Image];

imgNewImage.height = 75;
imgNewImage.width = 75;

imgNewImage.visible = false;

//add it to the tile
imageDisplayTile.addChild(imgNewImage);
=
I looked in the docs and see that an image has a showEffect value,
which you call in the tag like this:
mx:Image showEffect={fadeIn} /
and you declare the effect like this (as per docs example):
mx:Fade id=fadeIn duration=1000
alphaFrom=0.0 alphaTo=1.0/

How do I assign my fadeIn fade effect to my imgNewImage in script?
imgNewImage.showEffect doesn't work.

Any ideas anyone?

I think this should work?

var imageFade:mx.effects.EffectsInstance;
imageFade = fadeIn.createInstance(imgNewImage);
imageFade.play();
