So These Tags were in Ely’s Greenfield Video talking about how to make an Interactive List, Basically You can think of these tags as creating symbols or short definitions of a small component that you would like to make and keep reusing over and over again. Example: You want to construct a dozen panels and each of them has to have the same thing inside of them. It is a pretty simple concept once you see the code but could be pretty powerful. To better understand here is the code and the example. Need Flash Player 10 to view it, and I am using the Latest Flex 4 SDK.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="library:adobe/flex/halo" xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:ns="library:adobe/flex/gumbo"> <Library> <Definition name="myNewSymbol"> <!--So THe NEw Symbol Is just going to Contain an Button and a Text--> <ns:Group layout="flex.layout.VerticalLayout"> <ns:TextGraphic text="Hello This Is Part of The Symbol"/> <ns:Button label="I am also Part of the Symbol"/> </ns:Group> </Definition> </Library> <!--So We instantiate the Symbol by calling the Definition Name and that is it--> <mx:Canvas> <myNewSymbol/> </mx:Canvas> </mx:Application>
