ActionScript 2.0 :: ComboBox - Changing Text With Button?

Feb 6, 2003

I'm about as new to flash MX, how to write an action script that will allow me to change text with a button. However, I would like to be able to do it by a combo box. In other words, I would like to make it so that when you change the combo box to a different label, the text field will change to a different outside text file.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Changing Color Of Area With ComboBox?

Sep 2, 2008

I want to change the colors in the geographic areas in a map based on which selection was chosen from a comboBox where the hex color codes to be used are stored someplace (xml file?). For example, if user chooses "1980" in the combo box, Minnesota will be blue, but if user chooses "2004", Minnesota will be red. an example of or tutorial on how to do this? At this point, I don't care if it's with AS2 or AS3. I assume each geographic area would be an object whose color is set after each selection. But rather than start from scratch, I'd love to see an example that's close to what I want.

Flex :: Hide (or Remove) Label Text Without Changing The Button Size?

Dec 21, 2010

I have a button with variable-length of label text. I have a User Setting that can turn on or off the label text on this button.

How can I implement this?

NOTE: the button's background has a gradient color.

I tried using BlendMode.LAYER, no luck;

I tried using Button.resizeHandler

private function resizeHandler(event:ResizeEvent):void
{
if (event.oldWidth > this.width)

[Code]....

but it only worked if the initial UserSetting value is true.

How about embedded font? I don't know how to apply it to button

ActionScript 2.0 :: Changing The Function Of A Button Depending On Previous Button Press?

Mar 14, 2007

I'm loading in 5 jpegs from an external file using "loadMovie" and i have 5 corresponding buttons (1-5) to load them with.

I want to change the jpeg the button loads in depending whether a separate navigation button has been pressed -

i.e.

navigation buttons:

-motorbike pics
-car pics
-lorry pics

If a user clicked on "car pics" then the loading buttons 1 to 5 would load "car1.jpg", "car2.jpg" and so on...

similarly if the user clicked on "lorry pics", the same loading buttons 1 to 5 would load "lorry1.jpg" and "lorry2.jpg"

ActionScript 1/2 :: Use Button To Select Combobox Choice?

Jun 13, 2011

I have a combobox (called "style_cb") and as you might have guseed you can use it to select a "style".The site also has pictures and I'd like users to be able to click the pictures (which are buttons) and have the comboboxautomatically set to that option.So, if the options in the combo are "oranges, apples, pears, cherries" and the pictures are of the same fruits,then clicking on a picture of a fruit (let's say "cherriesBtn") would set the combo box to that option.

timer.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, doNumber);

Flex :: Setting A Custom ItemRenderer In A ComboBox On Specific List Items After Combobox Creation?

Nov 8, 2010

I'm trying to set a specific list item in a mx combobox to have a custom item renderer, the problem is that I cannot do this via mxml, it needs to be done via actionscript at a later stage, eg: combobox gets created, combobox gets populated, user does other tasks, combobox needs to set one or more items in the combobox to have icons (via item renderer)..

I can do this via the onChange event, but it only applies the icon when the combobox is opened and there is a slight delay so you can see the icon being added.

The part of interest is (probably?) in what is presently (and inaccurately) the "traceTextEvent()" function/method. It starts around line 90 of the code.

When you click on the ComboBox, the first selection in the list is "Select One". Is there a way to tell the ComboBox to just say "Select One" when it first hits the stage without making it editable?
