Not able to get it working ... the objecthandles

[Arif Ali Saiyed]

Hi There,
I tried using Objecthandles by creating an independent
sample app.
I tried the approach that's mention in the example 2. the spirit
approach.
but it dint work for me.

.These are the steps i followed

1. created empty flex project- desktop app
2. added one UIComponent
3. created spirite and model class.
4. tried adding the object handles to it..

Here is the link to my tiny sample app ( flex project)

Your display and model objects aren't connected in any way.

Perhaps something like this?

flexShape.model = flexModel;

or

objectHandles.registerComponent( flexShape.model, flexShape,handles,true);

Hi Marc,

             Thanks you very much or this useful utility and thanks for responding so quickly. 

As you see in my attached project, I have two appraoch.

approach 1 :  makes uses of Sprit approach. 

approach 2:    makes uses of flex component approach.

Regarding you were correct  about  no conection between flexShape.  &  flexModel,  I made that change still approach 2 dint work. 

Did you check my appraoch 1 ? In that i already had the connection between spirit and the model but still it did not work.

Am i not suppose to add it to UIComponent ? Am is suppose to add display object ( Spirit or flexshape ) and object handles to canvas or something ?

HI

you have to register not the object itself but the parent in which it is placed.

so registerComponent(flexShape.parent, etc)

Bye

I am sorry, that was no good! :-(

This is how i have my script working:

var p:photo = new photo;

var dataModel:SimpleDataModel = new SimpleDataModel;

dataModel.x = e.@objectx;

dataModel.y = e.@objecty;

dataModel.width = e.@objectwidth;

dataModel.height = e.@objectheight;

dataModel.rotation = e.@objectrotation

p.model = dataModel; (in my photo class i have a model object and a oh (objecthandles) object

p.oh.registerComponent(dataModel, p, hd);

etc 

Also i added a custom event to clear the handles that were active when you click on a photo object.

Hope this helps!

Hi There,

             Thanks for your response, Hye i got it working myself , it did work  when i changed UIComponent to Canvas ...( strage but still it worked) 

so now in my mxml i have one canvas.... which is the container for objecthandles and displayobject aka flexshape. 

Thanks
