assets/skins

Here is a mail discussion about skinning with mylib, really interresting specially when using swc library.

…
Yeah, that’s good, but the skins should have something like “simple mode”, for example, you only give a color and it uses the color as a “base”, only subtracting or adding tons to it.
…
Unfortunatly that’s not how assets/skins factory from myLib is designed BUT it’s design so you could make any kind of skin possible.
For example if you often want to use a color skin system you may be able to create a skin set for each components that you will able to use later for your projects.

With Button skin for example.
create your colorized asset class :

1
2
3
4
5

package
{
import myLib.assets.Asset;
import flash.display.Graphics;

public class ButtonColorAsset extends Asset
{
protected var _color : uint;

public function ButtonColorAsset ( color : uint )
{
super( );

_color = color;

// actually required check http://mylib.samystudio.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=55
_width = 100;
_height = 20;
draw();
}

public override function draw( ) : void
{
var g : Graphics = graphics;
g.beginFill( _color , 1 );
g.drawRect( 0 , 0 , _width , _height );
g.endFill();
}
}
}

create your own Button skin class :

package
{
import myLib.assets.TextFieldAsset;
import myLib.assets.IAsset;
import myLib.assets.ITextFieldAsset;
import myLib.controls.skins.ASkin;
import myLib.controls.skins.IButtonSkin;

public class ButtonColorSkin extends ASkin implements IButtonSkin
{
protected var _colorUp : uint;
protected var _colorOver : uint;
protected var _colorDown : uint;
protected var _colorDisabled : uint;

public function ButtonColorSkin ( colorUp : uint , colorOver : uint ,
colorDown : uint , colorDisabled : uint )
{
super( );

_colorUp = colorUp;
_colorOver = colorOver;
_colorDown = colorDown;
_colorDisabled = colorDisabled;
}

public function getTextFieldAsset ( ) : ITextFieldAsset
{
return new TextFieldAsset();
}

public function getUpAsset ( ) : IAsset
{
return new ButtonColorAsset( _colorUp );
}

public function getUpSelectedAsset ( ) : IAsset
{
return new ButtonColorAsset( _colorUp );
}

public function getOverAsset ( ) : IAsset
{
return new ButtonColorAsset( _colorOver );
}

public function getOverSelectedAsset ( ) : IAsset
{
return new ButtonColorAsset( _colorOver );
}

public function getDownAsset ( ) : IAsset
{
return new ButtonColorAsset( _colorDown );
}

public function getDownSelectedAsset ( ) : IAsset
{
return new ButtonColorAsset( _colorDown );
}

public function getDisabledAsset ( ) : IAsset
{
return new ButtonColorAsset( _colorDisabled );
}

public function getDisabledSelectedAsset ( ) : IAsset
{
return new ButtonColorAsset( _colorDisabled );
}

public function getIconUpAsset ( icon : * = null ) : IAsset
{
return null;
}

public function getIconUpSelectedAsset ( icon : * = null ) : IAsset
{
return null;
}

public function getIconOverAsset ( icon : * = null ) : IAsset
{
return null;
}

public function getIconOverSelectedAsset ( icon : * = null ) : IAsset
{
return null;
}

public function getIconDownAsset ( icon : * = null ) : IAsset
{
return null;
}

public function getIconDownSelectedAsset ( icon : * = null ) : IAsset
{
return null;
}

public function getIconDisabledAsset ( icon : * = null ) : IAsset
{
return null;
}

public function getIconDisabledSelectedAsset ( icon : * = null ) : IAsset
{
return null;
}
}
}

From there instantiate your component :

1	var b : Button = new Button ( this , null , new ButtonColorSkin( 0xFF0000 , 0x00FF00 , 0x0000FF , 0x999999 ) );

Once you’ve done your skin set for all components you can easily used it for next projects.

Hope this will help, and yes i will write documentation…

ScrollBar patch before next release

When using scrollbar with 0.7.2 release, you may have notice a problem while dragging scroll thumb.
When hiting up or down asset buttons while dragging thumb, scroll thumb hang and you have to release an press it again to continue scrolling.

Here is the solution :

StyleManager.getInstance().setClassStyle( Button , { disabledDragRollState : true } );

Place it anywhere in your code and don’t forget StyleManager and Button classes import.
