Question

does anyone know how to disable that slide animation and just have the action bar instantly change to whatever action bar the next view contains, but still do a slide navigation for the rest of the view. My Action bar doesn’t change on every page so seeing the same image reload repetitively in the action bar. Thanks!

Answer 1

I had this problem myself too.
This is the solution I used.

I moved all the objects in the navigatorContent, titleContent and actionContent from my views to my ViewNavigatorApplication.

Then I defined a state for each view in that ViewNavigatorApplication.

Next I used the includeIn on the content I moved from my views, and assigned the right state to it.

Now you can use events from the transition from your views to update the state ViewNavigatorApplication.

<s:ViewNavigatorApplication ...>
    <s:states>
        <s:State name="customerView"/>
        <s:State name="productView"/>
    </s:states>
    <s:navigationContent>
        <s:Button id="thisButtonOnlyInCustomerView" includeIn="customerView"/>
    </s:navigationContent>
    <s:actionContent>
        <s:Button id="thisButtonInBothViews" includeIn="customerView, productView"/>
    </s:navigationContent>
</s:ViewNavigatorApplication>

That is a rough example of what the ViewNavigatorApplication will look like.

Since the ViewNavigatorApplication doesnt slide, your actionbar content wont slide along with your view.
