Just a bunch of Adobe Flex Examples
From the category archives:
In a previous example, “Setting the label placement on a TabBar control in Flex”, we saw how you could loop over the tabs in a Flex TabBar control and set each tab’s labelPlacement property using the getChildAt() method.
The following example shows how you can loop over the tabs in a Flex TabNavigator container and set each tab’s labelPlacement property using the getTabAt() method.

I was trying to figure out how to add icons to a TabNavigator control today and ended up making this. The trick is that you actually add the icon on the TabNavigator control’s child containers and not on the TabNavigator itself. The example also has three tabs which each look at a different filtered view of an XML document (filtered using E4X).

This is a bit more of a “gotcha” than a tip, but it is something I’ve run into twice in the past week or so. When working with application domains and singletons (such as the DragManager or PopUpManager). I’ve been playing with modules the past couple days and ran into an issue when trying to drag items from a DataGrid in one module to a DataGrid in the second module. When trying to select an item in one of the data grids, I’d get strange run-time errors. The solution? Create a reference in my main application to a dummy DragManager or PopUpManager instance.
Hopefully this will save somebody a little bit of a headache in the future.
