The Union Platform (tm) - TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter blendMode must be non-null.

TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter blendMode must be non-null. - [how to solve]

Added by Kenneth Gilpin 734 days ago

I'm just playing with the reactorGUI and ran into the following error message when using the .swc file.

The answer seems to be that it is incompatible with the flex builder 3.2 SDK. if you install the flex 3.5 SDK which you will find here:

as described in this blog:
http://blog.flexexamples.com/category/flex-3-sdk/

then that solves the problem.

hi kenneth,
yes, the current version of ReactorGUI was built on Flex SDK 3.4.1 (as listed in the ReactorGUI release notes), so you'll want to build on at least 3.4.1. i've added the sdk version as a system requirement on the ReactorGUI download page so it's more obvious to other developers.

for others reading this post, here's a more direct link to the Flex SDK compatibility-related "blendMode" error:

thanks for pointing this issue out!
