I am going to make one contact form with Combobox with some input fields in it. The problem is when I tested the contact.swf it works fine and I can easily select any item as I like. But when this contact.swf loads in the main swf by clicking the contact button in the main swf the combo box does not work at all. I attached these two flash for your look. [URL].
View 2 RepliesI have created a main swf file which holds a movie container which other swf's load into. One of the sections has a form in it. When I preview this section on its own the form works, but when I preview through the main swf file (or online) the text fields cannot be typed into. How can I fix this?

View 6 Repliesthis is my final bug then I can finally launch this bloody site. here's my problem, I am loading an external .swf, which contains a pre-loader. the preloader in the external .swf works fine when I test it online by itself (not being loaded via main.swf) But when I test the external.swf through the main.swf the preloader does not work. the external.swf just plays through like it does not recognize the stop in the first frame to initialize the preloader skipping it altogether.here is my code:

I have tried changing all the styles associated with the combobox (borderColor, etc), and set borderStyle to none (which made the border go away around the dropdown menu) but I can't for the life of me get the border that's around the main part of the combobox to go away or change color. I skinned the button to get it to be red, but I just can't figure out how to change that last detail.
View 1 RepliesMy SWF contains a combobox that functions as expected when it is viewed alone. But when this same SWF is loaded into a 'container' SWF the combobox no longer works.
The container SWF uses AS3, and the SWF that is being loaded into it uses AS2. Could this be the problem?
I have a custom class the extends ComboBox. In it I set the textField style to embed fonts and use a custom textFormat. If I put this into a flash file all by itself, it works fine. But as soon as I put it into my actual project, it no longer works. I can't figure out why!
I can't really upload the source, so I was just curious if anyone had ideas as to what I might try to get it to work.
I have created a font symbol in the library for the font I want and exported it. And as I said, it works fine in an empty flash file, just not in my actual project.
I've created a flash builder actionscript 3 project which loads an external swf which was created in flash cs5 which contains the combobox component.How do i dynamically add items to it?
mc1['itemList'].addItem({label:"test"});
I remember I had this problem also on AS2: if you load a .swf that contains a combobox, into a mc in the main .swf, and you try to manipulate the scale of this container mc, the combobox dropdown menu won't resize.In AS2 i solved it by puting the combobox inside a mc "container" that also contains the code line this._lockroot=true;, and attaching this "container" to the swf using the attachMovie() method. I don't know why, but it worked, and when i loaded this swf into a mc in the main swf and re-scaled that mc the combobox's dropmenu scaled together with it.

why a ComboBox component wouldn't work if it's in a movieclip brought in with attachMovie? When I click on the combo box, the menu drops down like normal, but no matter what I click on, it goes blank. Just spent a lot of time searching the net for an answer, found a few suggestions but nothing has worked.The combo box works fine if it's placed on any timeline in my main movie, but when it's in a movieclip that is attached with attachMovie, it stops working.

View 2 RepliesWhich event is fired after the data is loaded into datagrid or combobox ? (Assuming the dataprovider is set to the datagrid).
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to implement this for an instance of ComboBox specifically, which uses a List to display the dropdown menu full of items. Lists can have icons associated with them, as described in the documentation:
var comboBox = addChild(new ComboBox());
comboBox.dataProvider = new DataProvider([{label:'item1',iconClass:IconClass1},{label:'item2',iconClass:IconClass2}]);
comboBox.dropdown.iconField = 'iconClass';
... assuming IconClass1 and IconClass2 are valid classnames of symbols in our library, this code works perfectly.
Here's my question - the contents of this ComboBox will be XML-driven, populated dynamically, and I'd really rather include that icon reference as a filename instead of a classname, so that when the whole thing is implemented, the icon can be changed in the XML without opening Flash and adding a new symbol to the library. Clients aren't generally good at that sort of thing.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to find a way to reference the container for the instance of that icon class - the ComboBox.dropdown is obviously keeping a reference to each list item somewhere, and if I can find it, I can load the icon images dynamically, then addChild them to the icon instance.
Im making a OOP game. Using classes ect. But how does the main menu system work? Well Im not full OOP yet i guess. the player spawn point and level boundaries are all visually set up on frame one. But im unsure as how main menu sytems ever worked OOP or not.

I have a dynamic image scroller that scrolls right or left following where the mouse is. When you hover over the images, a pop-up box also appears with information. This scroller works perfectly fine within the mc scene, but once i drag the mc into the main timeline the mc doesn't smoothly scroll right or left. It's jumpy and the infobox doesn't work at all. How can I get it to work smoothly on the main timeline?

View 4 RepliesI'm using Flash CS3 and want to create a custom ComboBox. I've followed the steps outlined in "Editing component skins in a new document" (http:/[url]...), but every time I get to the step where I drag the ComboBox Assets folder from the HaloTheme.fla library into my library, if I test movie at that point my combobox has become an unclickable white rectangle with no label, button or anything.
View 2 RepliesI'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.
How can I validate there's a selected item in a ComboBox before saving? If there's no selected item, how can I set focus on the ComboBox?

Both of my ComboBoxes has the same identifier.I could not change the identifier through the properties tab because it is greyed out.
I am not sure what is the difference between externally and dynamically loading pages, but I have created swf files for each of my pages and then a main page that those swfs get loaded into. The problem I am having is: I have transitions between my pages and my movie clip will animate when it is in the page swf, but not when it is in the main file.
View 0 RepliesI've created three keyframes on the main timeline, the first is empty, and so is the third. In the second I have a movieclip that contains a classic tween. The movieclip has an alpha of 0 at frame 1, and 100 at frame 15, then at 45 it does the same in reverse until frame 60. On the last frame (60) of my movie clip I have the code:
ActionScript Code:
_root.gotoAndStop(3);
For some reason when I test the movie, the fade effect will not work, and the screen will just be blank. I have the
ActionScript Code:
stop();
Code on frame 2 but none on the other frames.

View 3 RepliesI have a site that I'm working on that I am loading an external swf page into a main one. The main one is based on a totally liquid state and stretches the background to fill the browser and the components are relatively position based on browser window dimensions.
Now inside of the main swf I load an external swf through the loader command. This swf has a set dimension and stays centered in the stage.
I am trying to make a button in this swf that loads yet another swf that is stretches the full browser. However I do not know how to access the properties of a main swf from this external one, or if this is even possible.
I am loading an external swf and I want it to overlap my main swf. I have been trying to figure this out for days. Check my link to see what I am talking about

when you click on about the swf loads, but it leaves a little space on the right where you can still see the main swf underneath... you can also check my FLAs if you want...download here
