[flexcoders] Hslider skin

[Alan Rother]

Hey All,
I'm a total newb at making things look "right" in flex. I've gotten ok at
making them work. Now I've been tasked with re-inventing the wheel at work
and building a video player to be used in one of our products...

Anyhow, the designers have insisted I use a volume control that looks like a
speaker with vertical lines growing progressively larger as they get further
away from the speaker, then, based on the volume percentage in action more
or less them the lines would be visible.

Does anyone have a good example of this or how to build this? I assume I
will need to extend the Hslider to make it work...

Sorry, I just don't know where to start

[flexcoders] HSlider skin with masked symbol asset from flash8 and embedding assets

[Dan Rossi]

Hi there, im trying to work out a way to possibly
embed a masked movieclip symbol from flash8 which a designer is doing
to be used as a HSlider track skin. 

Basically i need to work out how to get the nested movieclip with a
coloured bitmap which is within a volume slider triangle mask if you
know what i mean controlled and sliding within the HSlider component. I
managed to get the container movieclip symbol embeded as a track skin
but the nested movieclip is obviouslly unable to be moved on the x
coordinates so all i can get at the moment is a triangle slider
trackbar with the default thumb over the top, i need the thumb to move
the white bar to give it a coloured volume slider effect. 

btw exporting the flash with flash 9 preview breaks the linkage id's in
fact its impossible to set linkage id's it only lets you add a class
name to link to, so if i set linkage id's in flash8, flash 9 will break
those, so everything becomes unusable in flex. I think this
developer/designer crossover has been unplanned and unthought out. 

let me know cheers.

Dan
