Change FlexViewer widget icon and label programmatically

BradleyMontgomery

In the sample Flexviewer, I'm using one widget to pop up another one using the PopupManager. I want to set the new widgets icon and title using the 'widgetIcon' and 'widgetTitle' properties but nothing I enter changes the default icon or enters a title. In fact, changing those properties in one of the standard widgets doesn't change anything either. How do I change the icon and title/label for a widget from within code.

Well Robert, once again you come to the rescue. It had to do with where I was trying to set the widgetIcon and widgetTitle. It has no effect when you set it in the WidgetTemplate definition. You have to set it in the script body referencing the ID of the the widget template. Silly me for assuming you could set it in the widgetTemplate definition.

Thanks SO MUCH!

Thanks Robert. Sorry for posting in the wrong place. I don't do this very often. Anyway, I'm already trying to set those properties in the WidgetTemplate but the settings don't take:

<viewer:WidgetTemplate id="queryTemplate" backgroundAlpha="1" width="524" widgetTitle="Some Title" widgetIcon="assets.DNR.images.40x40_widget.i_search.png" height="300" skinClass="com.esri.viewer.skins.WidgetTemplateSkin">
<mx:Canvas id="dgCanvas" height="100%" width="100%" visible="true">
<mx:HBox horizontalAlign="center" width="100%" height="100%" >
   <mx:AdvancedDataGrid id="queryGrid" height="100%" wordWrap="true" rowHeight="20" alternatingItemColors="[#FFFFFF, #EEEEEE]" fontSize="10" >
   </mx:AdvancedDataGrid>
</mx:HBox>
</mx:Canvas>
</viewer:WidgetTemplate>

Charlie,

A couple of things you might want to note...

This is the Flex API Forum and not The Flex Viewer and or widgets forum which you can find here:

http://forums.arcgis.com/forums/111-ArcGIS-Viewer-for-Flex

Next just FYI. Since version 2.x the viewer has been a supported esri product and hence is not the Sample Flex Viewer anymore it is the Flex Viewer.

To answer you question though you need to set the widgetTitle and WidgetIcon on the WidgetTemplate and not the BaseWidget.
