copied!<p>I don't think you can do this. Your best bet is to pass in a string identifier (perhaps a whole dot-separated path if your clips are deeply nested), and then implement code inside your custom component to find that item by name. </p> <p>I've got a custom component which lays itself out relative to horizontal and vertical predecessor components, so I do this:</p> <pre><code>protected var horizontalPredecessor:String = ""; [Inspectable(name = "HorizontalPredecessor", type = String, defaultValue="")] public function set HorizontalPredecessor($value:String):void { horizontalPredecessor = $value; drawNow(); } override protected function draw():void { if (parent) { if (horizontalPredecessor != "") { var hp:DisplayObject = parent.getChildByName(horizontalPredecessor); if (hp) { x = hp.y + hp.height + horizontalSpacing; } } } } </code></pre> <p>... which is made easy because all these components share the same parent.</p> <p>Alternatively, if there's only one door, you could make it a singleton, and give it a static reference, like this:</p> <pre><code>public class Door { private static var _singleton:Door; public static function get Singleton():Door { if(!_door) _door = new Door(); return _door; } } </code></pre> <p>Then your handle can just refer to <code>Door.Singleton</code> and you don't have to worry about passing anything in. Alternatively, you could have a static array of Doors in the Door class, and give your handle an index number to link it to a specific Door.</p>
