Setting style into object creation

[dguebel]

Hi there,

I was wondering what would be the recommended way to set up some styles on object declaration.

I got something like this:

<object id="priceColumn" class="mx.controls.advancedDataGridClasses.Advance dDataGridColumn">
......
<param name="dataField" value="price"/>
<method-invocation name="setStyle">
<arg>textAlign</arg>
<arg>right</arg>
</method-invocation>

</object>

does this make sense?

Thanks in advance,
Diego

The setStyle method invocation should work on regular MXML components, but unfortunately the AdvancedDataGridColumn (or DataGridColumn) are an exception. These MXML classes are non-visual, which means that there won't be an Event.ADDED fired for them. Therefore the method-invocation will never take place.
As of now I wouldn't be able to come up with a work-around for you, I'm sorry. In this case you'll have to set the style statically on the MXML markup.

cheers,

Roland
