[flexcoders] programatically change headerColors? Re: Control Bar Background Color
How would you programatically change headerColors and footerColors? Need some examples... I'm assuming it involves setStyle somehow?

[flexcoders] programatically change headerColors? Re: Control Bar Background Color
Hi Steve,
Yep, you're on the right track, it does involve use of the setStyle
method.
Use the following to retrieve the current settings if need be -
myPanel.getStyle('headerColor');
Setting the header colours requires an array, so it would be done like
this -
myPanel.setStyle('headerColors',[0xFF,0xFF]);
The same concept applies to all other styles. Hope this helps!

This works.

The footerColors style is an array of two colours used to the
draw
footer background (the area for the ControlBar).
use it like this:
mx:Panel width=100% height=100%
headerColors=[#44, #FF] footerColors=[#FF,
#44]
mx:ControlBar /
/mx:Panel
You can also use the footer-colours and header-colors tag in
your
css
style declarations.
