I just uploaded the second tutorial in the introduction to Flex series. This time I show you how to create a custom Flex component and use it as an item renderer for the list component so that it displays the user’s profile image next to the Twitter message. I decided to add this tutorial in the series before we get to styling and skinning as the item renderer concept is a very important one to learn when developing with Flex. |

great tutorial. there will definitely come a point where someone may need to access the data in s specific item. here’s how to do it: http://www.brentlamborn.com/post/Flex-3-Looping-over-itemRenderers-in-a-List.aspx

nice! this tutorial demonstrated that so much can be achieved with just a small amount of codes.
nice one =)
It’s good to see some Flex tutorials around here.
Nice tut Lee, can’t wait for the Skinning tut.
Has anyone checked out http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/videotraining/
Great tut, thnx for the info.
But why you don’t place it on theflexblog.com. I saw that site when i was reading an article on the insideria.com.
was waiting for, just working on the 1st part’s files
thx lee
Congratulations on your 100th tutorial
The best tutorials on the Web!
This tutorial is also great as usual!
I have a question, why did you do “data.link[1].href” instead of “data.link.getItemAt(1).href” (because Flex says this is the right way).
Thanks Lee!
Helpful tutorial on itemRenderers and use of the debugger.
Looking forward to Part 3…
Hay Lee
Good One man you just hit the point
I am so curious for the next tutorial
Good work Lee, looking forward to the next one! Will you be using Degrafa? It’d be cool to see a tutorial on this!
Cheers,
Mark
Hey,
i like your tutorials. Can’t wait next part
Hi, Lee,
I just write a few words, to say you that this month they talk about your blog and about GTAL, in a french magazine, “WEB DESIGN”, it’s cool
How to access data in custom AS-driven itemrenderer?
Excellent blog, I reference it daily. May I provide a link to your blog from mine?
Lee, what is your recommended book to learn flex?
Brilliant tutorial, I’m slowly moving my way over to Flex from working with Flash since Flash4. I’ll still use Flash for a great many things, but it’s nice to know Flex is there for those moments when you really need it.
Maybe in the future you could do a few tutorials on Flash Catalyst.
Is theflexblog.com still active btw?
I am loving the Flex tutorials! I have been holding off learning Flex because learning 3 different languages at once while in school is a bit nerve racking. It wasnt until you did the Intro to Flex 1 & 2 did I finally decide to dust off my installation of Flex.
Looking forward to part 3!
Thanks
Lee, great Flex tutorials! As always thank you very much.
@thivy: thank you for the link! very usefull.
