adding DisplayObject using xmlText property

So, is it possible to add DisplayObject using xmlText property? Something like that:

this._textLayout.xmlText = "<flow:TextFlow><flow:p><flow:img width="auto" height="auto" source="new Bitmap(new BitmapData(100, 100))" /></flow:p></flow:TextFlow>";

Or I should parse string and replace <flow:img/> by ParagraphElement.addChildAt(0, InlineGraphicElement) ?

Sorry for bad english.

You need a more recent build - this was added fairly recently.  I recall the function was spelled getElementById for a while until it was corrected.

Hope that helps,

Richard

Hi,

source as ActionScript definitely won't work.  Adding the ILG at runtime will.

Creating the ILG in markup and then finding it and modifying it will work.  For example,

this._textLayout.xmlText = "<flow:TextFlow><flow:p><flow:img width="auto" height="auto" id="xyzzy"/></flow:p></flow:TextFlow>";

textFlow.getElementByID("xyzzy").source = new Bitmap(new BitmapData(100, 100));

textFlow.flowComposer.updateAllContainers();

Each ILG will need a unique id.

Best Regards,

Richard
