designLayer:DesignLayer
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Specifies the optional DesignLayer instance associated with this visual
element.
When a DesignLayer is assigned, a visual element must consider the
visibility and alpha of its parent layer when ultimately committing its
own effective visibility or alpha to its backing DisplayObject
(if applicable).
A visual element must listen for layerPropertyChange
notifications from the associated layer parent. When the
effectiveAlpha
or effectiveVisibility
of the
layer changes, the element must then compute its own effective visibility
(or alpha) and apply it accordingly.
This property should not be set within MXML directly.
The designLayer
property is not used for z-order control,
please see depth
.

Product Version : | Flex 4.5 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 2.5 |
Specifies the desired layout direction for an element: one of LayoutDirection.LTR
(left to right), LayoutDirection.RTL (right to left), or null (inherit).
This property is typically backed by an inheriting style. If null,
the layoutDirection style will be set to undefined.
Classes like GraphicElement, which implement ILayoutDirectionElement but do not
support styles, must additionally support a null value for this property
which means the layoutDirection must be inherited from its parent.

mask clips the masked content. This property can
only have an effect if the graphic element has a
mask applied to it that is of type
MaskType.LUMINOSITY.
Implementation public function get luminosityClip():Boolean
public function set luminosityClip(value:Boolean):void
luminosityInvert:Boolean
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
A property that controls the calculation of the RGB
color value of a graphic element being masked by
a luminosity mask. If true, the RGB color value of a
pixel in the source content is inverted and multipled
by the corresponding region in the mask. If false,
the source content's pixel's RGB color value is used
directly.
Implementation public function get luminosityInvert():Boolean
public function set luminosityInvert(value:Boolean):void
mask:DisplayObject
[override]
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Sets the mask. The mask will be added to the display list. The mask must
not already on a display list nor in the elements array.
Implementation public function get mask():DisplayObject
public function set mask(value:DisplayObject):void
maskType:String
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
The mask type. Possible values are MaskType.CLIP
, MaskType.ALPHA
or MaskType.LUMINOSITY
.
Clip Masking
When masking in clip mode, a clipping masks is reduced to 1-bit. This means that a mask will
not affect the opacity of a pixel in the source content; it either leaves the value unmodified,
if the corresponding pixel in the mask is has a non-zero alpha value, or makes it fully
transparent, if the mask pixel value has an alpha value of zero.
Alpha Masking
In alpha mode, the opacity of each pixel in the source content is multiplied by the opacity
of the corresponding region of the mask. i.e., a pixel in the source content with an opacity of
1 that is masked by a region of opacity of .5 will have a resulting opacity of .5. A source pixel
with an opacity of .8 masked by a region with opacity of .5 will have a resulting opacity of .4.
Luminosity Masking
A luminosity mask, sometimes called a 'soft mask', works very similarly to an alpha mask
except that both the opacity and RGB color value of a pixel in the source content is multiplied
by the opacity and RGB color value of the corresponding region in the mask.
Luminosity masking is not native to Flash but is common in Adobe Creative Suite tools like Adobe
Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop. In order to accomplish the visual effect of a luminosity mask in
Flash-rendered content, a graphic element specifying a luminosity mask actually instantiates a shader
filter that mimics the visual look of a luminosity mask as rendered in Adobe Creative Suite tools.
Objects being masked by luminosity masks can set properties to control the RGB color value and
clipping of the mask. See the luminosityInvert and luminosityClip attributes.
This property can be used as the source for data binding.
Implementation public function get maskType():String
public function set maskType(value:String):void
moduleFactory:IFlexModuleFactory
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |

public function set moduleFactory(value:IFlexModuleFactory):void
owner:DisplayObjectContainer
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
The owner of this IVisualElement object.
By default, it is the parent of this IVisualElement object.
However, if this IVisualElement object is a child component that is
popped up by its parent, such as the drop-down list of a ComboBox control,
the owner is the component that popped up this IVisualElement object.
This property is not managed by Flex, but by each component.
Therefore, if you use the PopUpManger.createPopUp()
or
PopUpManger.addPopUp()
method to pop up a child component,
you should set the owner
property of the child component
to the component that popped it up.
The default value is the value of the parent
property.
Implementation public function get owner():DisplayObjectContainer
public function set owner(value:DisplayObjectContainer):void
percentHeight:Number
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Specifies the height of a component as a percentage
of its parent's size. Allowed values are 0-100.
Setting the height
or explicitHeight
properties
resets this property to NaN.
This property returns a numeric value only if the property was
previously set; it does not reflect the exact size of the component
in percent.
Implementation public function get percentHeight():Number
public function set percentHeight(value:Number):void
percentWidth:Number
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Specifies the width of a component as a percentage
of its parent's size. Allowed values are 0-100. The default value is NaN.
Setting the width
or explicitWidth
properties
resets this property to NaN.
This property returns a numeric value only if the property was
previously set; it does not reflect the exact size of the component
in percent.
This property is always set to NaN for the UITextField control.
When used with Spark layouts, this property is used to calculate the
width of the component's bounds after scaling and rotation. For example
if the component is rotated at 90 degrees, then specifying
percentWidth
will affect the component's height.
Implementation public function get percentWidth():Number
public function set percentWidth(value:Number):void

transform in a way that is invisible to its parent's layout.
For example, if you want a layout to adjust for an object
that is rotated 90 degrees, set the object's
rotation
property. If you want the layout to not
adjust for the object being rotated,
set its postLayoutTransformOffsets.rotationZ
property.

layout transform matrix.
|
Returns | Number — Returns the element's preferred height. Preferred height is
usually based on the default element size and any explicit overrides.
For UIComponent this is the same value as returned by
the getExplicitOrMeasuredHeight() method.
|
public function getPreferredBoundsWidth(postLayoutTransform:Boolean = true):Number
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Returns the element's preferred width.
Parameters
| postLayoutTransform:Boolean (default = true ) — When postLayoutTransform is true ,
the method returns the element's bounding box width.
The bounding box is in the element's parent
coordinate space and is calculated from the element's preferred size and
layout transform matrix.
|
Returns | Number — Returns the element's preferred width. Preferred width is
usually based on the default element size and any explicit overrides.
For UIComponent this is the same value as returned by
the getExplicitOrMeasuredWidth() method.

public function initialized(document:Object, id:String):void
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Called automatically by the MXML compiler when the SpriteVisualElement
is created using an MXML tag.
If you create the SpriteVisualElement through ActionScript you
must set the id
property manually.
Parameters
| document:Object — The MXML document containing this SpriteVisualElement (not used).
|
|
| id:String — The MXML id for this SpriteVisualElement.
|
public function invalidateLayoutDirection():void
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version : | Flex 4.5 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 2.5 |
An element must call this method when its layoutDirection changes or
when its parent's layoutDirection changes.
If they differ, this method is responsible for mirroring the element’s contents
and for updating the element’s post-layout transform so that descendants inherit
a mirrored coordinate system. IVisualElements typically implement
mirroring by using postLayoutTransformOffsets to scale the X axis by -1 and
to translate the x coordinate of the origin by the element's width.
The net effect of this "mirror" transform is to reverse the direction
in which the X axis increases without changing the element's location
relative to its parent's origin.
protected function invalidateParentSizeAndDisplayList():void
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Invalidates parent size and display list if
this object affects its layout (includeInLayout is true).
public function setLayoutBoundsPosition(newBoundsX:Number, newBoundsY:Number, postLayoutTransform:Boolean = true):void
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Sets the coordinates that the element uses to draw on screen.
Note that calls to the setLayoutBoundSize()
method can affect the layout position, so
call setLayoutBoundPosition()
after calling setLayoutBoundSize()
.
Parameters
| newBoundsX:Number — The x-coordinate of the top-left corner of the bounding box.
|
|
| newBoundsY:Number — The y-coordinate of the top-left corner of the bounding box.
|
|
| postLayoutTransform:Boolean (default = true ) — When postLayoutTransform is true ,
the element is positioned in such a way that the top-left corner of its bounding box is (x, y).
The bounding box is in the element's parent coordinate space and is calculated
from the element's layout size, layout position and layout transform matrix.
|
public function setLayoutBoundsSize(width:Number, height:Number, postLayoutTransform:Boolean = true):void
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Sets the layout size of the element.
This is the size that the element uses to draw on screen.
If the width
and/or height
parameters are left unspecified (NaN),
Flex sets the element's layout size to its preferred width and/or preferred height.
Note that calls to the setLayoutBoundSize()
method can affect the layout position, so
call setLayoutBoundPosition()
after calling setLayoutBoundSize()
.
Parameters
| width:Number — The element's layout width.
|
|
| height:Number — The element's layout height.
|
|
| postLayoutTransform:Boolean (default = true ) — When postLayoutTransform is true, the specified sizes
are those of the element's bounding box.
The bounding box is in the element's parent coordinate space and is calculated
from the element's layout size, layout position, and layout transform matrix.
|
public function setLayoutMatrix(value:Matrix, invalidateLayout:Boolean):void
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Sets the transform Matrix that is used to calculate the component's layout
size and position relative to its siblings.
The matrix is typically defined by the
component's 2D properties such as x
, y
,
rotation
, scaleX
, scaleY
,
transformX
, and transformY
.
Some components may have additional transform properties that
are applied on top of the layout matrix to determine the final,
computed matrix. For example UIComponent
defines the offsets
.
Note that layout Matrix is factored in the getPreferredSize()
,
getMinSize()
, getMaxSize()
, getLayoutSize()
methods when computed in parent coordinates
as well as in getLayoutPosition()
in both parent and child coordinates.
Layouts that calculate the transform matrix explicitly typically call
this method and work with sizes in child coordinates.
Layouts calling this method pass false
to the invalidateLayout()
method so that a subsequent layout pass is not
triggered.
Parameters
| value:Matrix — The matrix.
|
|
| invalidateLayout:Boolean — true to cause the parent container
to re-layout its children. You typically pass true
to the invalidateLayout() method.
|
public function setLayoutMatrix3D(value:Matrix3D, invalidateLayout:Boolean):void
Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Sets the transform Matrix3D that is used to calculate the component's layout
size and position relative to its siblings.
This matrix is typically defined by the
component's transform properties such as x
, y
,
z
, rotationX
, rotationY
,
rotationZ
, scaleX
, scaleY
,
scaleZ
, transformX
, and transformY
.
Some components may have additional transform properties that
are applied on top of the layout matrix to determine the final,
computed matrix. For example UIComponent
defines the offsets
property.
Note that layout Matrix3D is factored in the getPreferredSize()
,
getMinSize()
, getMaxSize()
, getLayoutSize()
when computed in parent coordinates
as well as in getLayoutPosition()
in both parent and child coordinates.
Layouts that calculate the transform matrix explicitly typically call
this method and work with sizes in child coordinates.
Layouts calling this method pass false
to the invalidateLayout()
method so that a subsequent layout pass is not
triggered.
Parameters
| value:Matrix3D — The matrix.
|
|
| invalidateLayout:Boolean — true to cause the parent container
to re-layout its children. You typically pass true
to the invalidateLayout() method.
