Can you post a little more of your code? The event coming in should have a targert property of the module that is ready. So you should be able to cast that to a display object and set the values:

Before you go downloading and building a larger complex project, you should take a little time to create some simple ones on your own to better understand what is happening.

Sometimes you have...

Heh heh... Yeah, I want to do a blog, but just haven't had the time to set it up.

I've not seen the lesson you are talking about, but I have created skins through inheritence by creating a new...

Go to the underlying data to do this. I assume you have some sort of array collection of objects as your data source?

Pseudo code:

I second Azz Kicker. Go get the Flex Component Kit from adobe. It's a free plugin for flash CS3 and higher. It has templates for buttons and all you have to do is modify the state art to your...

Cool! Let me give you a little skinfile primer that will help you out bigtime.

Hey Wisse,

It really comes down to time and your understanding of AS3. I have been coding Flash for many years (since flash 5), and a friend with very little programming experience showed me what...

Actually, it did work for a short time. But Steve Jobs decided to change the rules for iPhone OS V4 and ban it in the new license.

More than likely, the target container or one of it's parents may have background data and you are seeing that.

Without seeing you code, my suggestion would be to create a new project for testing....

Hello,

I thought I would post this to help out anyone else having trouble with drag enabled spark lists which are bound to XML data via XMLListCollections.

If you setup 2 lists with drag...

There is a whole slew of properties that will tell you this. It just depends on what you want.

I don't see any size or position defined for your Holder, so when you call addchild, it's adding it to the 0,0 location (top left). Since holder does not have dimensions defined, it will conform to...

From what it looks like, your root variable is not defined. Can you post your LogoObject class code? Looks like the way you are handling the change event may be incorrect as well.

Hey, no worries... The forums are here to assist and it's rare I have time to stop in and post... If anything I've posted helps, then job well done for me, which is all I desire.

FlexEvent.DATA_CHANGE should work for you, but what you could do is create a bindable variable and then use the ChangeWatcher.watch() and then have a responder run code to open the tree.

Look in the docs at E4X. This is how you easily traverse XML and XMLLists with simple dot notation.

There should be no need to convert your XML to arrays as it's already a traversable complex...

It's your RSL's and lack of using the optimize tool on your final .swf. I dont have docs or examples handy but here is what will shrink it down.

I am not sure I understand your issue and I am using ASP.NET Web Services to support my flex projects, so this may or may not help you, but maybe someone else.

I built an FTP file uploader which...

Heh heh... that is the one I was looking for. Thanks a bunch!

Hey Everyone,
