assetActions | property |
assetActions:IList| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
The list of AssetAction objects maintained by this handler. This list is used by the asset manager framework to determine which action to enable. The asset manager framework looks for the value of the enabled flag in the AssetAction object to determine the same and handler updates the flags everytime the list of selected assets changes.
This property can be used as the source for data binding. When this property is modified, it dispatches the propertyChange event.
Implementation
public function get assetActions():IList public function set assetActions(value:IList):voidcurrentAction | property |
currentAction:AssetAction| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
The action that the handler is currently executing. This is useful in cases when the editor needs to know the action that the working asset is being acted upon. For instance, the editor might need to disable some of the fields if it is a view action.
This property can be used as the source for data binding. When this property is modified, it dispatches the propertyChange event.
Implementation
public function get currentAction():AssetAction public function set currentAction(value:AssetAction):voidselectedAssets | property |
selectedAssets:Array| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
The array of category value objects currently selected by the user. This is set by the asset manager framework everytime a user selects or deselects an item of type category.
This property can be used as the source for data binding. When this property is modified, it dispatches the propertyChange event.
Implementation
public function get selectedAssets():Array public function set selectedAssets(value:Array):voidworkingAsset | property |
workingAsset:CategoryModel| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
The Category Domain Object that the handler is currently working with. The handler creates this domain object from the shallow value object that it receives from the asset manager framework. The working asset is used by the asset editor to display the asset to the user in a desired presentation format.
This property can be used as the source for data binding. When this property is modified, it dispatches the propertyChange event.
Implementation
public function get workingAsset():CategoryModel public function set workingAsset(value:CategoryModel):voidCategoryHandler | () | Constructor |
public function CategoryHandler()| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
Constructor.
createCategory | () | method |
protected function createCategory():void| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
Called internally when this handler is handling an action of type Create. The default implementation creates a new category domain object, assigns it as the working asset and dispatches the launchEditor event so that the framework can display the editor window to the user. This method can be extended to override the creation behavior of this handler. For instance, if creation requires some preprocessing or some checks that need to be made, the same can be done by overriding this method.
deleteCategories | () | method |
protected function deleteCategories(showWaring:Boolean = true):void| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
Called internally when this handler is handling an action of type Delete. The default implementation iteratively deletes all the selected category value objects. A confirmation Alert dialog is shown to the user but can be curbed by setting the showWarning flag value to false. Deletion does not require creation of a domain object. Hence, the delete action has no impact on the value of working asset. Moreover, the launchEditor event is never dispatched while handling the delete action.
Parameters
showWaring:Boolean (default = true) |
editCategory | () | method |
protected function editCategory():void| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
Called internally when this handler is handling an action of type Edit. The default implementation creates a new category domain object from the selected category value object.
getAssetType | () | method |
public function getAssetType():String| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
Returns the asset type handled by this handler. This is used by the asset manager framework to route actions to appropriate handlers.
ReturnsString — the asset type handled by this handler
|
handleAction | () | method |
public function handleAction(event:AssetActionEvent):void| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
This method is invoked by the asset manager framework whenever user requests an action on an object of type category. This method is called for all the actions requested by the user. The action handling is internally routed to the correcting templatized methods like createLayout(), editLayout() etc.
Parameters
event:AssetActionEvent — The event object of type AssetActionEvent that is raised by the asset manager framework
|
handleDefaultAction | () | method |
protected function handleDefaultAction(event:AssetActionEvent):void| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
handles the default Action(AssetActionEvent.ACTIN_DEFAULT) such as Item double click on search results grid. If user has edit permission, then asset is opened in edit mode. otherwise if user has view peermission then asset is opened in view mode.
Parameters
event:AssetActionEvent — AssetActionEvent containing the action information.
|
initialize | () | method |
public function initialize():void| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
Called by the asset manager framework giving the handlers a chance to initialize themselves.
viewCategory | () | method |
protected function viewCategory():void| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Asset Composer Building Block 9.5 |
| Runtime Versions: | AIR (unsupported), Flash Player 10.2 |
Called internally when this handler is handling an action of type View. The default implementation creates a new category domain object from the selected category value object, assigns it as the working asset and dispatches the launchEditor event so that the framework can display the editor window to the user. This method can be extended to override the "view" behavior of this handler. For instance, if viewing action requires some preprocessing or some checks that need to be made, the same can be done by overriding this method.
