Re: [flexcoders] Need to change the viewstack from a child container

2008-04-06 Thread Daniel Gold
if your structure is that simple, in the child you could do
parent.selectedChild = newChild. It depends in what scope the code is
executing. If your viewstack and children are defined in a single MXML file,
then in a script block myviewstack would still be in scope and
myviewstack.selectedChild would work.

When dealing with similar situations my approach is to have the child
dispatch a custom event, and have that event bubble and be handled by any
appropriate listeners. So your viewstack could add an event listener for the
ChangeChildView event, and that event could define a child index or enum
representing the child to switch to. Then your children views dispatch the
ChangeChildView event without being aware of any details about how it will
be handled.
