Hide Inherited Public Properties
Show Inherited Public PropertiescolorField:String| Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version : | Flex 3 |
| Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Name of the field in the objects of the dataProvider Array that specifies the hexadecimal values of the colors that the swatch panel displays.
If the dataProvider objects do not contain a color
field, set the colorField property to use the correct field name.
This property is available, but not meaningful, if the
dataProvider is an Array of hexadecimal color values.
The default value is "color".
This property can be used as the source for data binding.

selectedColor:uint| Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version : | Flex 3 |
| Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
The value of the currently selected color in the SwatchPanel object. In the <s:ColorPicker> tag only, you can set this property to a standard string color name, such as "blue". If the dataProvider contains an entry for black (0x000000), the default value is 0; otherwise, the default value is the color of the item at index 0 of the data provider.
This property can be used as the source for data binding.

selectedIndex:int[override] | Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version : | Flex 3 |
| Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Index in the dataProvider of the selected item in the
SwatchPanel object.
Setting this property sets the selected color to the color that
corresponds to the index, sets the selected index in the drop-down
swatch to the selectedIndex property value,
and displays the associated label in the text box.
The default value is the index corresponding to
black(0x000000) color if found, else it is 0.
This property can be used as the source for data binding.
