[Extendflash] Exploring XMLUI's colorchip in Flash 8

[Chris Fourney]

When I call up the colorswatch, I use:
   
  <colorchip id="swatch" color="000000"/> -- and it seems to work just fine, with 000000 being the default color. Maybe its just a case that you should get rid of the # sign and it will start working?
   
  I call the control with fl.getDocumentDOM().xmlPanel(fl.configURI + "/XULControls/ColSwatch.xml").swatch and it returns the value of the color swatch, but also includes the # sign with this value. Just slice that number sign away if you need to , and yur all set.
  
Lemme know if this helps, (and if you got my other email)

sets the color chips identify to mycolor and in theory should show black
as its default.

However, it does not.

I have tried as many things as I could think of including
value="#000000" , #000000

If this isnt the case, lets see what the colorchip really contains...
Note: it does not return anything if the chip is not set, even with value
or color defined in the xml.

fl.trace(myXML.mycolor+' '+typeof(myXML.mycolor));

for(var i in myXML.mycolor) {
fl.trace(i+' '+typeof(i)+' 'myXML.mycolor[i]);
}

//Output

#3300CC string
0 string #
1 string 3
2 string 3
3 string 0
4 string 0
5 string C
6 string C

//

... 0_0 !! What the nelly?!

Where do we go from here? You cant set 0="" 1="" in the tag =/
