    <p>I believe this is because you need to have a reference to the Background class before you can actually get the definition by name. Simply importing the Background class will not compile the class in to your swf, you need to reference it in some way. Creating an instance of the class is one way, however you can also reference the class after your import. </p> <p>try something like...</p> <pre><code>import com.somedomain.Background; Background; </code></pre> <p>This should create a reference to you class and ensure it is compiled in to your swf.</p> <p><strong>Edit to show multiple class usage.</strong></p> <p>If you have multiple background classes, I would recommend trying to make them adhere to an interface. I would then also create a background factory class that would allow you to create background instances from your configuration file. This also means that you would be able to put all your references to your background classes in the factory class. Here is what the factory could look like.</p> <pre><code>// let the compiler know we need these background classes import com.somedomain.backgrounds.*; DarkBackground; LightBackground; ImageBackground; class BackgroundFactory { public function create(type:String):Background { var bgClass:Class = getDefinitionByName(type) as Class; return new bgClass(); } } </code></pre> <p>Then to get a background instance from your config, you would do something like...</p> <pre><code>// parse your config file...not sure what format you've got it in. // instantiate a background factory and create an instance based on the name from your config. var bgFactory:BackgroundFactory = new BackgroundFactory(); var bg:Background = bgFactory.create(someStr); </code></pre> <p><strong>Edit to extend example</strong></p> <pre><code>package com.somedomain.background { interface Background { function get img():Bitmap; } } package com.somedomain.background { class SomeImageBackground extends Sprite implements Background { protected var _img:Bitmap; public function SomeImageBackground():void { _img = new SomeAssetFromLibrary(); } public function get img():Bitmap { return _img; } } } </code></pre> <p>Using these external classes would give you a bit more control over where the images come from. You could load them external, embed them using the embed meta data and even load them from the stage.</p>

    1. COI think you are right. I test it as you propose and worked! But now the flexibility of the getDefinitionByName has been blocked as i will have to instantiate the class, but i would like to get its instance by its name so to use a configuration file. Can you propose a solution?

    2. COI tried to give a more in depth answer for how you could do this with your config file. Let me know if it makes sense.

    3. COhey man thanks very much you give me many ideas! I have a small question again: You write: import com.somedomain.backgrounds.*; but how you put your images in that package? I mean i use either the flash library and convert an image to a user-defined subclass of BitmapData or (just before a little i found) the Embed tag, like [Embed(source="image.png")] public Background1:Class . How do you achieve to gother all your user-defined graphics classes in a package? How do you define an interface if the classes are created just i told you before? Use an interface as a marker? Can you show me?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
