[flexcoders] Re: override commitSelectedIndex for ViewStack component

2009-04-08 Thread gwangdesign
Tracy, Thanks much for the info. I did check out some of tink's effects 
components (including some of those Papervision3D ones). All of which seem to 
be custom effects, as opposed to subclass of a container component.

 Hi,
 
 I am sure this has been discussed somewhere by someone before. So excuse me
 if this is an old topic. But what I want is when the selectedIndex changes
 in a ViewStack component, instead of the default behavior of waiting until
 the current selected child completes its hideEffect to start the showEffect
 of the new selected child, I would like to play both effects concurrently
 (as a compound parallel effect).
 
 So I guess what I need to do is to override the commitSelectedIndex method
 in ViewStack for my subclass. But by looking at the code, I am convinced
 it's a little bit over my head at least for now. So I'd love some lead (the
 more detailed the better;)) as to how I should override the method. Sample
 code is much appreciated. 
 
 Thanks a lot.

Another option, instead of sub classing, would be to use states in place
of a view stack.  State changes allow you to implement transition
effects (parallel or sequence), directly to the desired children.
