July 23rd, 2011How to set hand cursor for a component in a skin?
July 19th, 2011If you want to set hand cursor for a component in its skin you will probably try to add buttonMode = “true” in a root tag of the skin. But it won’t work. To make it happen you need to set buttonMode property by reference to a host component:
override protected function initializationComplete():void
{
hostComponent.buttonMode = true;
}
{
hostComponent.buttonMode = true;
}
In order to make hand cursor appear for some components you may also need to set other properties like useHandCursor or mouseChildren.
