I am having problems making a movie clip goto a different frame when an item on a list box is selected. Here is my code
list.getSelectedItem().label;
_root.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(list=="2"){
[code].....
I currently have a list that I'm using to hold text so when an item in the list is selected the text is displayed in a text box along side it. I want to have the first item in the list to be pre-selected so the text for that item is already in the textbox when it is loaded.

I have created a list control with the instance name "dependents" and populated it with labels and data. MultipleSelection is set to true.
I would like to print the labels in a comma-delimited list.
I have used the following code...
dependents.selectedItems.toString()
which yeilds the following when there are two items selected...
[object Object],[object Object]
way to access the labels in these objects in the case of a multipleSelection
I have a list component on the stage of CS4 called ans1Sec2 (this is for a test) I am able to load the list dynamically and when the user clicks on one of the list items it highlights. What I need is the ability to save that item they selected so when they go back to that question (review mode) the answer they selected is highlighted. I am able to get the evt.target.selectedItem.data and save that into a var, but how do I get that item and make it selected on the list component when they are in review mode?
View 1 RepliesI'm developing a Flash interface that needs to pass a multi-select list to PHP from AS3. I have a similar interface programmed in HTML and JavaScript, and due to the quirks of PHP I use a series of like-named hidden fields to store the data. The fields are named, for example, "my_ option_text[]". The use of the square brackets in the name somehow identifies to PHP that this is an array and it treats it as such. I've had no problem using this method to send data to my PHP processing page and have been able to save it correctly. Now I'm trying to use the same PHP save page to process the data from Flash. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to configure my URLVariables class properties to appropriately pass an array that will be identified as such by PHP. I've tried simply assigning an array to an appropriately named property of the URLVariables class, but the PHP only recognizes one item, not all items. I've tried using the same naming convention as that I use in HTML/JavaScript, but the square brackets aren't appreciated by AS3.
I can't believe that I'm the first person to encounter this issue. If anyone can point me in the right direction on how to resolve this I'd appreciate it. I did try searching these forums but only found one case discussing PHP arrays, and that was sending data into Flash, not from Flash to PHP.
creat a flash to randomly select names from list contains more than 150 names and randomly select about 10 or 20 names each time without repeat any of then
View 1 RepliesTo select all the items in myList I wrote:
myList.selectedItems = ['red','cyan','magenta'] ;
But what if I don't know about the items in the mx:list in advance? How can I select all the items in a list without specifying their names?
In Flex 4, I have a Spark List component with item renderers. I would like to select an item in the List by clicking on it, and deselect it also, by clicking on the same selected item. Like an on/off switch.
My item renderer has the following states:
<s:states>
<s:State name="normal"/>
<s:State name="hovered"/>
<s:State name="selected"/>
</s:states>
so I tried to add a click event listener to the item renderer with:
private function selectUnSelect():void {
if (currentState == 'selected') currentState = 'normal';
else currentState = 'selected';
}
with an awkward behaviour... where the item stay selected even after clicking it again in the selected state.
Think of using the List component without the Command (on mac) or the Control button on windows.
i have a spark List control. it has a dataProvider that shows reply from twitter search.i have created a function for change handler like this:
protected function list_changeHandler(event:IndexChangeEvent):void
{
ta.text = coverflow.selectedItem.title;
}
so, whenever i select each of the items in the List i will see the message(ta.text)but now, instead of me manually clicking the first time, i want it to automatically click/select the first item and see the first message(ta.text)how do i do it?
I set my list to allow multiple selection. But when I load data in my list, I want to set a few items as selected. Normally you can set only one item selected by using list.selectedIndex. It only accepts int. How can I set multiple items as selected?
View 2 RepliesI have a spark List defined as:
<s:List id="symbolList" dataProvider="{symbolListCollection}" change="symbolNameChangeHandler(event)"></s:List>
With the change handler defined like this:
protected function symbolNameChangeHandler(event:IndexChangeEvent):void {
symbolList.validateProperties();
changeSymbolView(symbolList.selectedItem);
}
and symbolListCollection as an ArrayList filled with Strings.
At first, the change event works fine, and I get what I expect.
However, if I Ctrl-click on the selected item, to de-select it, i am unable to ever select an item again.
When I click on something to try to select it, the change event DOES fire, however, the ItemChangeEvent has both oldIndex and newIndex set to -1
I have a Spark List container whose dataProvider is bound to a result set coming back from a RemoteObject call. Pretty standard stuff.
<s:List id="list" dataProvider="{model.stuff}" width="100%" height="100%"
selectedIndex="@{selectedSlider.value}"
itemRenderer="{stuffRenderer}">
</s:List>
The selectedIndex is associated with an HSlider, but that is not the problem. My issue is that I would like to automatically select a certain "preferred" element from the list (only initially...to guide the user).
I tried to do that in a creationComplete event but my data hadn't shown up yet...setting selectedIndex didn't work..
i'm trying to repopulate a list when you select a new category from a drop down component.
So far i can populate the category drop down and i can also populate the list box from a default dir but i can't seem to get the list to change when you select a new category.
this is the category script that populates the drop down (this is working fine except that when i change the category i want the list box (bgList) to repopulate with the new location files):
ActionScript Code:
loadCat ="textures";
if (_url.indexOf("http") != 0) catFilepath = "xxxxxxx/backgrounds/";
else catFilepath = "xxxxx/backgrounds/";
[Code]....
It's a Submit Form (name, age, etc...)If I have 4 font types embeded (eg. Arial / Varadana / Comic Sans / Eras) how can I create a drop down list of the fonts where anyone could select - change (runtime) the FONT TYPE by clicking the name?
View 12 RepliesI have 75 frames in an animation. I have about 6 layers. I am trying to put a stop statement on the last frame.
Every time I open the Actions window it says Frame 1 even though the playhead is positioned on the last frame.
How do you place a stop comand on the last frame and which layer do I need to select?
Is there a way to 'select' (so the flickering cursor appears) an input box when you load the frame?

Flex 4 Combobox is extended with a Text Input that helps in getting to the item that is searched for.I have created a Check Box as an itemrenderer for this Flex 4 Combobox. I would like to Add a Select All and Select None options in the drop down of the Combobox. I know that i could accomplish by editing the dropdownfactory in case of a Flex 3 Combobox.

View 2 RepliesI am tryin' to emulate simple button functionality and methodology.To finish, i need to emulate 'hit' framelabel, where everything you put inside will be that frame will be the active zone of all button states.But i don't know how to read that framelabel, if button is not at that framelabel.Why button is not at that framelabel?, 'cause button is either at 'up', "over", "down" framelabels, 'hit' label is and actually never played framelabel, but i need to read it once so that i can to replicate its contents to all other framelabels.I'm aware i could just use a display object with an 'hit' instance name throughtout button's timeline.But what i am trying is to, it's to emulate 'simple button' methodology as i stated
View 3 RepliesWhat I want to do is compile an .fla with nothing on the stage but several of the movieclips are set to export on first frame in the properties linkage manager. When the .swf runs, I want to loop through and get the names of all the exported assets so I can place them in an array and manipulate them later.
I want to turn the code over to the art team where all they have to do is attach my .as file for the document class. I will not know what they name their movieclips, yet they are instructed to name them alphabetically according to what order they should appear. (My code is a sort of self contained slide show).
Is there any method so that I can find the List of Label in given Loaded MovieClip. I am working on a system that dynamically load SWF from other developers, since these developers has choice, they put some labels in their script. However it is upto them to use any combination of given label, so that, say one developer make labels
Inanimation, OutAnimation, Endanimation
While other make
OutAnimation,endanimation
And third make InAnimation, Endanimation
So when my script load it should read the label on their MC so it can take action accordingly. We are not sure what Frame number they put label, and we cannot change their SWF anyways. The solution I know is I check through their FrameLabels and then take action if XXX frame exists.
So I wondered if there is some way to retrieve a list of all movieclips that are in the library that have been exported in frame 1.
