one effect for all components

[gutaker]

Hello guys! Its been quite long time since my last post...

Anyway, here's the question: is there a way to assign one effect to all components showing but not thru specifying showEffect property in code?

I mean, it could be quite annoying to specify showEffect for all components when there's hundred different ones on one Canvas.

IE: Canvas with Label, Picture, TextField (or whaterver you may choose).
All components should be displayed one after another with ie. Fade effect fading everything in.

Thanks in advance for helping me out

solved it via actionscript portion of code so here it is

[Bindable]
public var ar1:Array = new Array();
public function get_elements_names():void
{
	var s:String = application.childDescriptors;
	var pat:RegExp = /UIComponentDescriptor_/gi;
	s = s.replace(pat, "");
	ar1 = s.split(",");
}
public function set_effects():void
{
	for each (var item:String in ar1)
	{
		this[item].setStyle("creationCompleteEffect", ein1);
		this[item].setStyle("removedEffect", eout1);
	}
}

a little bit of explanation:
its best to put the get_elements_names() function to application preinitialization event, then set_effects() function to initialization event.

the [Bindable] statement is used to populate datagrid for my testing purposes, so its not neccessary.

its obvious, in set_effects() function, you can put whatever effect you want

thats it! hope this will help someone someday
