I'm trying to pop something above items that are calling for fullscreen like
the VideoPlayer; but in my case I've extended the VideoPlayer and created a
SkinnableComponent for it.
I've got a little bit of code that I'm using ubiquitously by a few different
components and for some reason this video player is being seen as NOT an
IVisualElementContainer but of course the addElement has to work with it vs
addChild; so I'm unsure how I can or really SHOULD be checking for this? Here's
the code:
debugger.trace(this,'test: ' + (note.getBody() is IVisualElementContainer));
var ui:UIComponent = note.getBody() as UIComponent;
if(note.getBody() is IVisualElementContainer){
var n:IVisualElementContainer = note.getBody() as
IVisualElementContainer;
n.addElement(view);
}else{
ui.addChild(view);
}
That first line outputs as false -- and forgive the note.getBody() - -that's
the way PureMVC / Fabrication sends messaging around. So I'm basically sending
the view of the videoPlayerMediator out to be dealt with but for this the code
throws an error:
Error: addChild() is not available in this class. Instead, use addElement() or
modify the skin, if you have one.
