Easing class
None
Regular
Strong
Each of the classes in the mx.transitions.easing package provides the following three easing
methods:
Easing method
easeIn
easeOut
easeInOut
Because the easing methods are static methods of the easing classes, you never need to instantiate
the easing classes. The methods are used in calls to
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
trace("_global.styles.Accordion = " + _global.styles.Accordion);
_global.styles.Accordion.setStyle("openDuration", 1500);
_global.styles.Accordion.setStyle("openEasing", Bounce.easeOut);
Note: The default equation used by all transitions is not available in the easing classes listed above.
To specify that a component should use the default easing method after another easing method has
been specified, call
Getting style property values
To retrieve a style property value, use
of UIObject (which includes all version 2 components except the Media components) inherits the
method. This means you can call
getStyle()
you can call
setStyle()
The following code gets the value of the
var myCheckBox:mx.controls.CheckBox;
var oldFontSize:Number
oldFontSize = myCheckBox.getStyle("fontSize");
trace(oldFontSize);

effect, a slowing-down effect, or both.
