What I normally do, is extend the list component and
add a bunch of public properties or styles to it.
eg. public var titleColor:uint;
Then in my item renderer class, I override the
commitProperties function, and in there grab the
properties and styles I need from the list.
eg.
var tmp:CustomList = this.owner.parent as CustomList;
this.setTitleColor( tmp.titleColor );
Hopefully that makes sense.
One other thing you might want to do if you use this
approach, is to cause the item renderers to re-request
their styling information if the styles change at
runtime. This can be done by adding a function to your
CustomList like this one (note, this funciton came
from inside a custom DataGrid of mine, but should be
easy to translate to other list types)
public function invalidateItemStyles():void
for (var rows:int = 0; rows < listItems.length;
rows++)
{
var rowArray:Array = listItems[rows];
for (var cols:int = 0; cols < rowArray.length; cols++)
{
var colItem:UIComponent = rowArray[cols] as
UIComponent;
if (colItem)
colItem.invalidateProperties(); // refresh
}
}
}
Hope that helps
