Trying to create a List Class instance and having trouble. The list shows up on the stage, but the variable returned from createClassObject is null, so I cannot change the format or reposition it.
This code is based on an example in the Mook Essential ActionScript book. The List composnent is in the Library and placed on frame after the classes have loaded. // -------- begin code snippet import mx.controls.List var listText:List; clip_mc = parent_mc.createEmptyMovieClip( "clip", parent.getNextHighestDepth() ); listText = clip_mc.createClassObject(List, "listText_lst", clip.getNextHighestDepth() ); // these commands have no effect -- debugger shows that listText is null. listText.setSize(550, 150); listText.move(listText.x+50, listText.y+50); Any thoughts?
