In practice, itemRenderers actually tend to be the best candidate for skins.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 4.1 VBOX background renderer fails
You cannot set the backgroundColor of the renderer. Backgrounds are removed in order to allow alternating background colors to show through. But you should be able to set it on the TextArea.

Yes I tried setStyle() as well as styleName= with no success. I could
not set the backgroundColor property in actionscript (compiler did not
recognize property) but I could set that property in mxml to a binding
expression and set the color in the bound variable. Suspect bug but

[flexcoders] Re: FTE vs TextField
This thread is a little old, but yes, the font and source text are embedded in those examples. The FTE handles inline-progressions necessary for internationalization. It performs ligature and sub-pixel rendering. It gives you control over kerning, justification letter spacing, auto-hyphenation, and line spacing. It has an incredible amount of typographical advantages over TextField. Hell, with the right code, you can build documents from HTML and CSS. That said, it's a pain in the ass to use from the standpoint of a component developer. If you just want lightweight text rendering, you can use the very few classes in tinytlf that render and layout textblocks. If you want decorations, selection, interaction, scrolling (yes, this is a feature), HTML support, CSS support, etc. you will increase the size of your SWF proportionally. I agree, it's unfortunate that the TLF isn't modular enough to be used outside the framework, but that's their choice. At least you can look at the source of the TLF and fork it/fix bugs/extend and enhance it if you need to. Or you can take the approach I have, and write a different one. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "enridp" wrote: > > I was reading about FTE, and I can't see any advantage over TextField. > Maybe I'm not understanding it well... > > If we have bold, italic, differents colors, etc we must create a lot of > TextElements with FTE vs htmlText in TextField > We must render each line separately vs only one TextField. > We must write a LOT of code for selecting text (we need to detect the mouse > events, change the cursor, draw the selection, etc) vs automatic in TextField. > (also, a simple task as selection the text is consuming 20% of CPU with FTE) > And you must make your own context menu for copy the text in FTE... > You must code your own centered and right alignment too... > > Here are 3 great tutorials about FTE: > http://guyinthechair.com/2010/06/the-flash-text-engine-part-1/ > http://guyinthechair.com/2010/06/the-flash-text-engine-part-2-interaction/ > http://guyinthechair.com/2010/08/the-fte-part-3-textblocks-textlines-and-text-layout/ > > But every SWF is about 200KB, and I don't know why, I mean, FTE is inside > FP10, and we are not using TLF (maybe the font is embedded?) > > What's is the "cool" thing about FTE?

[flexcoders] Re: right align the gridcolumn text
ClassFactory doesn't support setting styles; they're different than properties.
You can get around this by either:
1) use a custom item renderer that has a styleName or css selector.
2) extend ClassFactory to support setting styles on the item renderer
instances. See com.blogagic.core.UIComponentFactory at
http://blogagic.com/_flex/libagic_source/srcview/index.html

[flexcoders] right align the gridcolumn text
GridColumn doesn't have the textAlign style. Instead we can do this -
..
How can I do this in actionscript? I've tried the following but doesn't work
var renderer1:ClassFactory = new ClassFactory(DefaultItemRenderer);
renderer1.properties = { textAlign:"right", color:0xff00ff };
col.itemRenderer = renderer1; //doesnt work
