32 Introducing Flex
Repeaters Repeaters let you dynamically repeat any number of controls or
containers specified in MXML tags, at runtime.
For more information, see Chapter 26, “Dynamically Repeating
Controls and Containers,” in the Flex 2 Developer’s Guide.
Image and media
importing
You can use MXML tags to import several images into
applications. Flex supports several formats, including JPEG,
PNG, GIF, and SVG images and SWF files. In addition, you can
use the VideoDisplay control to incorporate streaming media into
Flex applications. Flex supports the Flash Video File (FLV) file
format with this control.
For more information, see Chapter 30, “Embedding Assets,” in
the Flex 2 Developer’s Guide.
View states View states let you structure your application to present a varying
appearance by defining a base application view state, and sets of
changes that modify the base view state. Each view state can
add or remove children, set or change styles and properties, or
define state-specific event handlers. You can also define
transitions between view states, which control the appearance of
the change from one view state to another.
For more information, see Chapter 27, “Using View States,” in
the Flex 2 Developer’s Guide.
ActionScript scripting ActionScript lets you perform actions with the components that
are represented by MXML tags. You use ActionScript in your
Flex applications to do the following:
• Handle events
• Define custom functions and methods
• Call ActionScript functions
• Work with components after they are instantiated
For more information, see Chapter 9, “Code Editing in Flex
Builder,” in Using Flex Builder 2, or Chapter 4, “Using
ActionScript,” in the Flex 2 Developer’s Guide.
Debugging Flex includes support for debugging and warning messages, an
error-reporting mechanism, and a command-line ActionScript
debugger to assist you in debugging your application.
For more information, see Chapter 11, “Running and Debugging
Applications,” in Using Flex Builder 2, or Chapter 12, “Using the
Command-Line Debugger,” in Building and Deploying Flex 2
Applications.
