Flex 4 Button state in a HGroup
- by chchrist
Hi all,
I have a HGroup with some buttons inside which is my application's menu.
<s:HGroup id="nav">
<s:Button id="homeButton" label="Home" />
<s:Button id="showroomButton" label="Showroom" />
<s:Button label="Catalogue" />
<s:Button label="Offers" />
<s:Button label="My Account" />
<s:Button label="My Orders" />
</s:HGroup>
What I want is when I click for example the #homeButton to change it's state to "over", become disabled and reset all other buttons to the "up" state.
I've written this function
private function resetNavState():void {
for(var i:int = 0,ii:int = nav.numChildren-1;i<ii;i++) {
Button(nav.getChildAt(i)).mouseEnabled = true;
Button(nav.getChildAt(i)).skin.setCurrentState("up",true);
}
}
And then on the homeButton click handler for example i use
protected function homeButton_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
resetNavState();
currentState = "home";
homeButton.skin.setCurrentState("over",true);
homeButton.mouseEnabled = false;
}
I resets the states of the #nav buttons but it doesn't change the state of the pressed button.
Any ideas?
Thanx in advance
