Looking for the last modified script:

I add xmlns:component=”comps.*” in order to have TWO components. The first one which contain the “formItem” and the second one the “label”. I have passed many time to try, but i don’t found the solution.
Can you help me Please.

Wow, a million thanks Peter, that’s the fastest response I’ve got so far.

Change the <mx:NumberFormatter /> to <mx:CurrencyFormatter />, and then change the slider_change() method to the following:

private function slider_change(evt:SliderEvent):void {
    lbl.text = valDisplay.format(Net);
}

Peter

Thanks.

Taking the same example, i’m looking for to use mx:formatter.
How to have for the two labels, the formatter : $ ###,### with the precision 0:
I made the coode below but i have no result. Thank for your help

Instead of using bindings, I’d probably create a listener for the Slider control’s change event.

Something like the following:

<mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
        import mx.events.SliderEvent;

        import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;

        private function init():void {
            slider.value = slider.getStyle("dataTipOffset");
        }

        [Bindable]
        public var myAC:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([{Year:2004, Sales:8000, Cost:1300}]);

        public function get Net():Number {
            var a:Number = myAC.getItemAt(0).Sales;
            var b:Number = slider.value;
            return ( a - slider.value );
        }

        private function slider_change(evt:SliderEvent):void {
            lbl.text = Net.toString();
        }
    ]]>
</mx:Script>
…
<mx:FormItem label="dataTipOffset:" direction="horizontal">
    <mx:HSlider id="slider"
        minimum="100"
        maximum="300"
        snapInterval="100"
        tickInterval="100"
        liveDragging="true"
        dataTipOffset="{slider.value}"
        dataTipPrecision="0"
        showTrackHighlight="true"
        initialize="init();"
        change="slider_change(event);" />
    <mx:Label text="{slider.value}" width="80" />
    <mx:Label id="lbl" text="{Net}" width="80" />
</mx:FormItem>

Your example is very interesting. I add a function but i have no result. Can you help me please.

            }

           [Bindable]
			public var myAC:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
				{Year:"2004", Sales:8000, Cost:1300},
			]);

			public function get Net():Number {
				var a:Number =	myAC.getItemAt(0).Sales;
				var b:Number =	slider.value;
				return ( a - slider.value );
