need to make a reusable custom component from the existing code here. So that I can use this code to make this effect(view stack) to work in any direction. In the code it has user specified height and works from downside.
I need to make this component customizable, something like user is able do it in any direction.I need it urgently. I appreciate your help.
1)main Application:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute"
xmlns:sh="windowShade.*">
<sh:Shade id="i1" height="15" headerHeight="14"
thisHeight="215"
alwaysOnTop="false"
y="{this.height - 14}"/>
</mx:WindowedApplication>
2)Custom Comp: Shade.mxml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:VBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
width="100%"
height="300"
creationComplete="init()"
verticalScrollPolicy="off"
verticalGap="0"
>
