maskType | property |
maskType:String| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flex 4 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
The mask type. Possible values are MaskType.CLIP, MaskType.ALPHA
or MaskType.LUMINOSITY.
Clip Masking
When masking in clip mode, a clipping masks is reduced to 1-bit. This means that a mask will not affect the opacity of a pixel in the source content; it either leaves the value unmodified, if the corresponding pixel in the mask is has a non-zero alpha value, or makes it fully transparent, if the mask pixel value has an alpha value of zero.
Alpha Masking
In alpha mode, the opacity of each pixel in the source content is multiplied by the opacity of the corresponding region of the mask. i.e., a pixel in the source content with an opacity of 1 that is masked by a region of opacity of .5 will have a resulting opacity of .5. A source pixel with an opacity of .8 masked by a region with opacity of .5 will have a resulting opacity of .4.
Luminosity Masking
A luminosity mask, sometimes called a 'soft mask', works very similarly to an alpha mask except that both the opacity and RGB color value of a pixel in the source content is multiplied by the opacity and RGB color value of the corresponding region in the mask.
Luminosity masking is not native to Flash but is common in Adobe Creative Suite tools like Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop. In order to accomplish the visual effect of a luminosity mask in Flash-rendered content, a graphic element specifying a luminosity mask actually instantiates a shader filter that mimics the visual look of a luminosity mask as rendered in Adobe Creative Suite tools.
Objects being masked by luminosity masks can set properties to control the RGB color value and clipping of the mask. See the luminosityInvert and luminosityClip attributes.
The default value is MaskType.CLIP.
This property can be used as the source for data binding. When this property is modified, it dispatches the propertyChange event.

out the children with the new width and height. If the
resize mode is set to ResizeMode.SCALE, all of the children
keep their unscaled width and height and the children
are scaled to change size.
The default value is ResizeMode.NO_SCALE, corresponding to "noScale".

getVirtualElementAt | () | method |
public function getVirtualElementAt(index:int, eltWidth:Number = NaN, eltHeight:Number = NaN):IVisualElement| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flex 4 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Layouts that honor the useVirtualLayout flag will use this
method at updateDisplayList() time to get layout elements that are "in view",
i.e. that overlap the Group's scrollRect.
If the element to be returned wasn't already a visible child, i.e. if it was created or recycled, and either eltWidth or eltHeight is specified, then the element's initial size is set with setLayoutBoundsSize() before it's validated. This is important for components, like text, that reflow when the layout is justified to the Group's width or height.
The returned layout element will have been validated.
This method will lazily create or "recycle" and validate layout elements as needed.
This method is not intended to be called directly, layouts that support virutalization will call it.
Parameters
index:int — The index of the element to retrieve.
| |
eltWidth:Number (default = NaN) | |
eltHeight:Number (default = NaN) |
IVisualElement — The validated element at the specified index.
|

| Product Version: | Flex 4 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Sets the contentWidth and contentHeight
properties.
This method is intended for layout class developers who should
call it from updateDisplayList() methods.
Parameters
width:Number — The new value of contentWidth.
| |
height:Number — The new value of contentHeight.
