RE: [flexcoders] Add reference in MXML without adding to children

[Mark Ingram]

Hi guys, thanks for the fast responses - I'm currently creating the
window in action script - but wanted to move it to MXML purely for
easier binding:

 

i.e.

 

<mx:TitleWindow title="{someVar}"/>

 

Vs

 

<mx:Script>

            creationComplete

            {

                        BindingUtils.bindProperty(etc)

            }

</mx:Script>

 

I was just thinking I could write 1 line of MXML vs 10 - 20 lines of
action script.

 

Thanks,

 

Mark

Does it have to be MXML?

 

            <mx:Script>

                        <![CDATA[

                                    import mx.managers.PopUpManager;

                                    import mx.containers.TitleWindow;

                                    

                                    [Bindable]

                                    private var titleWindow:TitleWindow;

                                    

                                    private function someFunction():void

                                    {

                                                titleWindow = new
TitleWindow();

 
PopUpManager.addPopUp(titleWindow);

                                    }

                        ]]>

Subject: [flexcoders] Add reference in MXML without adding to children

 

Hi, does anyone know if it's possible to create a reference in MXML (so
that you can later use it as a variable and also easily use bindings)
but not add it to the parent's children?

 

i.e.

 

<mx:Canvas>

 

            <mx:Script>

            Private function someEvent()

            {

                        PopUpManager.addPopUp(titleWindow);

            }

            </mx:Script>

 

            <mx:TitleWindow/>

</mx:Canvas>

 

I don't want the title window to be shown inside the canvas, I just want
to create it as a variable.

 

Thanks,

 

Mark
