[flexcoders] Re: Need help dynamically modifying text displayed based on DB return
The solution was actually simple but took a great deal of digging.
I created a protected function as follows:
protected function onLabelCreationComplete():void
{
if ( imageStatus == 'Available' ){
artPrice.setStyle("color", "0xC39F70");
artPrice.text = imagePrice;
}
else if ( imageStatus == 'Sold' ) {
artPrice.setStyle("color", "0xED1F04");
artPrice.text = imageStatus;
}
else {
artPrice.setStyle("color", "0xC39F70");
artPrice.text = imageStatus;
}
}
Then I called the function from the Label control:
The setStyle operator resolved the issue completely.
I used your states idea but implemented id using conditional statements.
Thanks for the reply this was helpful.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 3 -> 4 migration and s:States
Yes, that works for me too, A little googling indicates that you cannot inherit states. So I tried moving the state definitions into the child component which still does not work as shown below. However if I change A.mxml to inherit from s:VGroup the state errors go away (although I get a bunch of new ones because I’m not inheriting from the base class). I could change my base class to an .as definition; but I don’t know if that would help. Any suggestions? ---base component _section.mxml--- http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"; xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" xmlns:com="components.*" …> … -- child component A.mxml--- http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"; xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" xmlns:com="components.*" xmlns:sections="sections.*" > … -- compiler error points to the line- Description ResourceLocationPath Type Could not resolve to a component implementation.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 3 -> 4 migration and s:States
In that example he has mentioned like bellow. WORKS *but not this one* mx inside s ok but s inside mx is not ok. Is it ok!! Thanks. And I don't know why are you so desperate to use spark inside mx, using spark is better that mx.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 3 -> 4 migration and s:States
Set/assign the state( currentState="Oct2010" ) inside creationComplete
handling method.
Ex.
protected function
application1_creationCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
this.currentState = " Oct2010";
}
May be all the states might have not laid-out while executing
Its my guess. Do reply with your results.
Thanks

[flexcoders] Divider line for s:splitViewNavigator
Hi, I have the following questions for s:splitViewNavigator. How to change color,width for Divider line for s:splitViewNavigator? How to hide the Divider line? Thanks Mark
Re: [flexcoders] Re: "s:Image" and "s:BitmapImage"?
Use Image if you want to display loading states of images, generally when
loading external images based on user interaction. Use BitmapImage for
skinning purposes.
