[flexcoders] 2 Questions abot TextField in ActionScript

2009-05-12 Thread ACasualObserver
1- Is it possible to create a translucent TextField (or whatever class that can 
be added to a DisplayObjectContainer to display) ? How?

2- The same question about a text with halo?

Thanks

1. Yes. By default, flash.display.TextField does not have an opaque background; 
to get one, you have to set its background:Boolean property, and then you can 
set backgroundColor:uint to determine what color the background is.

2. Can you be more specific? What Halo component are you talking about? Label? 
Text? TextInput? TextArea?

We use view stacks here, because so much changes between the two states.

 Question 2: Is it good practice to have components be able to talk and
 share information with one another? And if so, how do you keep them around
 and reference them if you're using viewstates?

Yes, but you should do it by both of them talking to a third 'model' component 
that holds all your (shared) data.
Have a look at Cairngorm's ModelLocator for an example.

The only time Ive used states is
transitioning from two different contexts specifically from a login screen to
the initial state of the application after login. (I wanted to animate the
transition)



As for components, my approach is to black
box them and leverage the event model for communicating. As soon as one
component knows about another, re-use is pretty much compromised. Your app
itself can use listeners to catch and respond to these events and orchestrate
things between components. 



HTH,

Stace

Hi there,

Have some questions about the best practice way of designing apps.

I'm building a simple email server preferences application. And I've created
two 
components. One for handling the login (which hits amfphp and ldap on the
backend) and 
one for loading and changing/saving the user prefs (which also hits amfphp and
ldap on 
the backend).

There are really only two states, login handilng, and prefs
changing.

Question 1: Is it best to use States or ViewStacks to deal with changing app
states?

on to my second question...

The login component is sorta self sufficient. It can handle good logins and bad
ones. and 
if it's a good login can switch the current state to the preferences state (as
viewstates are 
what i'm currently working with.) But when i get to the email preferences
state, it wants to 
know things from the login component, like email and password. 

Question 2: Is it good practice to have components be able to talk and share
information 
with one another? And if so, how do you keep them around and reference them if
you're 
using viewstates?

Thanks,
mark
