[flexcoders] using the Style control tag

2005-05-19 Thread cnewroth55 
not sure if anyone else knows this, but I tried to use the 
mx:Style tag to set a style in one of my components, and when I 
did i got an error that said CSS type selectors are not supported 
in components, here is what I had:
mx:Style
LinkBar {some style stuf
}
/mx:Style

however this is wrong and the error message was kind of misleading, 
based on it i thought that i could NOT use the tag/style in a 
component;
but when I changed it to this;
mx:Style
myLinkBar.LinkBar {some style stuff
}
/mx:Style
noticed i added a ID to the LinkBar style it worked just fine...just 
thought someone might what to know...

Hi,

You can use style tag as shown below, not sure why you got errors. Which
version of Flex you are using?


You can see into flex docs under section Using Styles and Fonts:

http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/15/flex_docs_en/0532.htm



##StyleTagExample.mxml##

mx:Application width=800 height=600
xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml;
mx:Style

 LinkBar {

color:#00;
border-style:solid;
background-color:#FF;
textRollOverColor:#FF;
}

.myStyle {

color:#FF;
font-family:Georgia;
}

/mx:Style


   mx:LinkBar
click=getURL('http://www.macromedia.com/' +
String(event.label).toLowerCase(), '_blank'); 
 mx:dataProvider
mx:Array
mx:StringFlash/mx:String
mx:StringDirector/mx:String
mx:StringDreamweaver/mx:String
mx:StringColdFusion/mx:String
/mx:Array
/mx:dataProvider
/mx:LinkBar

mx:Button label=aButton styleName=myStyle /
/mx:Application


Hope that helps..

In an MXML component, one that does not contain the mx:Application tag,
you cannot define a type selector, only a class selector.
