    <p>I'm having trouble setting up a Graphic object (a solid filled rectangle) to be masked with an image that gets loaded at runtime. I've managed to get it to work with the following code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0"?&gt; &lt;s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" creationComplete="init()" &gt; &lt;fx:Script&gt; &lt;![CDATA[ import spark.core.MaskType; public function init():void { rect.mask = circle; } ]]&gt; &lt;/fx:Script&gt; &lt;s:Graphic id="rect" maskType="{MaskType.ALPHA}" cacheAsBitmap="true"&gt; &lt;s:Rect width="500" height="500"&gt; &lt;s:fill&gt; &lt;s:SolidColor color="0xDDAAAA" /&gt; &lt;/s:fill&gt; &lt;/s:Rect&gt; &lt;/s:Graphic&gt; &lt;mx:Image id="circle" source="http://example.com/someimage.png" cacheAsBitmap="true" /&gt; &lt;/s:Application&gt; </code></pre> <p>What I don't understand is why it does not work with this other snippet, modified slightly from the O'Reilly Flex 4 Cookbook (<a href="http://oreilly.com/flex/excerpts/flex-4-cookbook/graphics.htm" rel="nofollow">Chapter 4 - Apply Bitmap Data to a Graphic Element as a Mask</a>):</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0"?&gt; &lt;s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" &gt; &lt;fx:Script&gt; &lt;![CDATA[ import spark.core.MaskType; ]]&gt; &lt;/fx:Script&gt; &lt;s:Graphic id="rect" maskType="{MaskType.ALPHA}" cacheAsBitmap="true"&gt; &lt;s:Rect width="500" height="500"&gt; &lt;s:fill&gt; &lt;s:SolidColor color="0xDDAAAA" /&gt; &lt;/s:fill&gt; &lt;/s:Rect&gt; &lt;s:mask&gt; &lt;mx:Image id="circle" source="http://example.com/someimage.png" cacheAsBitmap="true" /&gt; &lt;/s:mask&gt; &lt;/s:Graphic&gt; &lt;/s:Application&gt; </code></pre> <p>Setting the PNG inside the &lt;s:mask&gt; makes the stage render nothing, while adding the mask programatically in the init() method causes correct behaviour. </p> <p>It took me quite a while to figure this out and I'd like to understand what it is that I'm doing incorrectly in the MXML approach, as that seems to be what is being done in the Cookbook (other than me using an Image and the example using a Group wrapped BitmapImage).</p> <p>Thanks</p>

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.
