[flexcoders] Reusing code blocks
Ok I have a MXML file that has 3 states. All of them have one coommon canvas in common that holds an accordian. It should look the same in all 3 states. Is there a way to only define the accordian (and canvas) container once and have it appear on all thre states?? Right now in the code the accordian is there 3 times which seems a bit bloated to me.

RE: [flexcoders] Reusing code blocks
Add the common Canvas to a base state. Then create two more states, and in the Create States dialog, choose Based on Base State. Your new state will then include all the components as your base state until you make changes to that state From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of mthielman11 Sent: Wednesday, June 28, 2006 7:58 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Reusing code blocks Ok I have a MXML file that has 3 states.

Re: [flexcoders] Reusing code blocks
Yes, through the concept of base states. Build a state that has the components you want shared between multiple sub-states, then when you add a new state in Flex Builder change the Based On drop down to be the state that contains the Canvas and Accordian. -d mthielman11 wrote: Ok I have a MXML file that has 3 states.
