If you just want to turn off the visual indication, you can clear

errorString property of the control. Tip: For custom validation,
you
can write your own error message to errorString. This will
trigger the
red border and error message to appear.
As I understand the Flex framework, you have three states of
validation.
You can validate as-you-go and/or validate in response to a
gesture
(like clicking a search button). I like validating as-you-go when
at
all possible. It notifies the user immediately that they need to
make a
correction before proceeding. Usually, controls that always need
to be
validated should be validated as-you-go. In addition, you can
create a
catch-all function that selectively validates controls before
submitting a request to the server. As a practical matter, you can
choose to validate the as-you-go controls in this function as
well.
This may be overkill, but I don't like embarrassing the
application by
asking the server an impossible question.
For controls that may or may not need to be validated, depending
on the
state of other controls, you should try to organize the validation
into
functional groups/collections in the catch-all function. From
here,
you can manually control the error state of the controls. I'm sure
that there is a possible reason for disabling a validator, but I
prefer
avoiding this approach. imho, I think that this creates code that
is
more difficult to maintain. Instead, I would move the validation
to the
catch-all function.
I'm really not sure if this applies to your particular situation,
but I
hope that this helps you.

Hi everybody,
I need to turn off or disable a validator.
After an error is detected in the associated field I cannot
turnoff
the visual indication or the error message, even if I write
to the
textinput or set the enabled property of the valdator to false.
When I first show the screen I make the validator disabled so
that
required fields can be blank and it worked. But at moment an
error is
detected I can only turnoff the validator if I set the textinput
with
a valid value, in this case a number.
How can I make it work ?
Thanks in advance
