Something has to draw onto every pixel, otherwise the mouse hit passes through
to underneath. You can set the alpha to 0 and it will still work. You can
also set background=true and pick a backgroundColor on the TextField and not
have to draw the fill.

OK, well I've settled with the white background for now...

Hi,
We're using Flex 4 and have an Item Renderer that extends UIComponent.
We're adding a TextField that's added in createChildren().
In the Constructor(), I'm adding the listener:
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, this_onMouseOver);
...And in the listener function, I'm adding a button:
indicator = new Button();
indicator.width = 20;
indicator.height = 20;
indicator.label = "...";
this.addChild(indicator);
this.invalidateDisplayList();
The problem is that the MouseOver event is ONLY firing when I mouse over the
TextField and not the 'background' of the IR.
If I draw a rectangle in updateDisplayList:
// draw rect
this.graphics.beginFill(0xFF0000, 1);
this.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
this.graphics.endFill();
... the MouseOver event DOES fire on the red background.
Is there a way of achieving this without drawing a rectangle? I did think of
setting the rect to white but this doesn't seem like the correct approach.
Thanks for any help...
Nick
