AS3 :: Flash - Extending Default ScrollBar Component
Jun 24, 2010
I'd like to adjust the width of the default ScrollBar that appears inside of a Flash ComboBox. From my research on various forums, it seems like the best approach would be to subclass fl.controls.ScrollBar, which I've tried doing here:
package helpers {
import fl.controls.ScrollBar;
public class CustomScroller extends fl.controls.ScrollBar {
[Code].....
Then, in my library, I've taken the "ScrollBar" movie clip that appears upon initial creation of a ComboBox and changed the base class to "helpers.CustomScroller". I've got three ComboBox instances on the stage; however, none of them are showing anything but the default width, nor am I seeing the output from the trace() statement in my constructor.

I have a component with a public variable declared
[Bindable]
public var mnuSource:String;
When I extend this component, I can reference mnuSource (it compiles) but Runtime complains about the property not being accessible (error 1056).
How do you modify / declare component properties so they are actually available to other components?

I've been trying to create a custom mxml component that extends another custom mxml component (i.e.MyMXMLComponent -> BaseMXMLComponent -> Group). I've been reading that trying to add visual children to MyMXMLComponent caused error with Flex 3 but that's no longer the case with Flex 4.
What I want to know is whether this is a supported/fixed/documented feature of Flex 4? or just some undefined behavior in Flex 4 that may get changed with future updates?
if this is supported and documented feature, does anyone have link pointing to adobe document stating it as such?

I found this sentence while googling out for Flash help: "Add 3 frames to your timeline. Drop a TextField on your Stage & make sure it extends over all the 3 frames." I was not able to accompolish the second task of this. I added the frames, dropped a TextField on the first frame, but could not find a way to extend it over all the 3 frames.

when extending a flex component and trying to use it, I get a RTE. I.e. I am extending a DataCanvas and am using it like this:
<MyComponent dataProvider="{dataProvider}" width="100%" height="100%" x="0" y="0" id="dc" verticalCenter="0" horizontalCenter="0" />
Has anyone seen this? How can I get around it?

i just want to remove the down and up arrow from a scrollbar component in flash cs3.
I've tried to remove the movieclips but than the flash would throw errors(which is obvious), than i tried to delete the graphics inside the arrows but with no luck.
Edit: I forgot to mention that i want the actual scrollbar area to expand if i remove the arrows.

I've never extended a component class in AS2, and I'm having problems with it now.
Here's my class file:
Actionscript Code:
import mx.video.FLVPlayback;import mx.video.*;class AkamaiFLVPlayback extends FLVPlayback{
public function AkamaiFLVPlayback(){
super()}}
Here's how I'm trying to instantiate it from the FLA:
Actionscript Code:
import AkamaiFLVPlaybackvar g = new AkamaiFLVPlayback()this.attachMovie(g,myVid,1)g.contentPath = "[URL]"
Now this does not work at all. I can see that the super class FLVPlayback is creating variables, but it's not loading to the stage or initializing.

I'm extending the Flex 3 panel component. I need to figure out the width of the title's text. Because, title is a private variable in panel, I can't access it via title.width.I know the font, fontsize (14), and length of the title (which will vary). Knowing this info is there a way to calculate how many pixels wide the title is?

I have a custom Flash Video Player and I have the play and mute button as controls. Currently my player has the sound on, I want to set it as muted by default.
This should also show my mutebutton as on as a visual cue. The only line of code I am using for the mute button is this
myVideo.muteButton = mute_btn; // which is just telling the flv component which button needs to act as the mute button
Using Flash CS3 , Actionscript 2.0
I got extremely two easy lines of code that I put in my action Frame 1 which fixed everything.
myVideo.volume = 0;
myVideo._uiMgr._isMuted = true;
myVideo is the name of my FLVPlayback component

I'm trying to provide some default sorting within the OLAPDataGrid component in Flex. There appears to be a dataCompareFunction on OLAPAttribute, but nothing I do seems to actually trigger calls to that method. Any suggestions around using this method or any others to provide sorting of the dimensions on OLAPDataGrid?

I've been using a scrollbar/scrollpane component to create scrollable timelines for use in court cases. However these components interfere with printing, I imagine because the content needs to be attached from the library and so the printJob function seems not to see the scrolling content.

I'm trying to have a scrollbar in my .fla for controlling images (put together in a movie clip) and viewing the different ones. The scrollbar component only seems to work with text boxes, and I can't find a decent tutorial on how to use scroll panes (or why I should) to save my life.It seems SO simple.
