You can create a array of component names such as;
spark.components.Button
spark.components.TextInput
spark.components.CheckBox
spark.components.Label
spark.components.RadioButton
spark.components.DropDownList
mx.controls.DataGrid
spark.components.TextArea
mx.controls.DateField
then pass want you want into this function;
private function makeElement(className:String,
COMPONENTID:String):UIComponent {
var objClass:Class = getDefinitionByName( className ) as Class;
if( objClass != null ) {
var newObject:UIComponent = UIComponent( new objClass() );
newObject.id = COMPONENTID;
newObject.name = COMPONENTID;
return newObject;
}
else
return null;
}
then create a switch that looks at the resulting element and add any styles, or
other properties to the element, or other elements, and add then to your
container. The dropdown and datagrid will require extra code to provide a
dataprovider, and you will have to add the default skin by a setStyle, but that
should get you going in the right direction.
one cavot is that the id is not searchable you will have to search by name in
the container, if you want to change the element after you add it to the
container.
I create elements dynamically by quering a database to create the elements
needed in a flex applicaton, the structure and flow of forms are all in the
database and I use flex to create the components on the fly...

Hi FlexCoders,
I came across a Flex PM site and I would like to ask what are the necessary
controls / things I need to do to achieve the same application.
The site's page is:
http://www.radscientist.com/flexpm/demo/index.html
I am having problems re-creating those items which expands when the plus sign
is
clicked as well as adding new items when the Add Milestone button is clicked.
How do I achieve adding controls on the fly on the application?
I hope you could provide some guidance on this.
Thanks.
Angelo
[flexcoders] Re: Flex Project Management App
I would create a custom component that has all of the features of the milestone encapsulated. ie. The plus button, the label, the datagrid, the add and remove tasks buttons etc. I would also have a custom component comprising of the datagrid and its sub components. All you would need to do when someone clicks the add milestone button is to create a new instance of the custom component and add it to the display list. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Angelo Anolin angelo_ano...@... wrote: Hi FlexCoders, I came across a Flex PM site and I would like to ask what are the necessary controls / things I need to do to achieve the same application.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex Project Management App
Care to share some of the codes you used for the custom component? I will explore further the site you mentioned. Thanks.
