Subject: [flexcoders] Catching graphics update on UIComponent
I have a UIComponent that is a component made up of a label and a background
image. I am running a loop to update the component, change the label and copy
the resulting bitmap to a standard image. My result is that I get the image
without any updates. The add function just pushes the counter of the label up 1
and updates the .text field of the label. The code looks like...
I know invalidatedisplaylist just adds a flag to a future update but how should
this be built.
var curX :int = 10;
var curY : int = 70;
var anImage : Image;
var imageBitmapData:BitmapData ;
while (curY this.height) {
bbMain.add(1);
if (curX this.width) {
curX += 60;
} else {
curY += 60;
curX = 10;
}
this.invalidateDisplayList();
// Copy into new image
anImage = new Image();
anImage.width = 54
anImage.height = 54;
anImage.x = curX;
anImage.y = curY;
this.addChild(anImage);
imageBitmapData = ImageSnapshot.captureBitmapData(bbMain);
anImage.source = new Bitmap(imageBitmapData);
}
