Is there a way to store the clicked menuItem index of a clicked menuItem on a menuBar component?I need to be able to create a previous and next button that relates to the currently clicked menuItem of a menuBar. My menuBar dataprovider is an XML file. So I'm thinking it should be possible to show the nextSibling or previousSibling according to the clicked menuItem of a menuBar

I am fairly new to flash and are trying to create an imagegallery from an xml file. The galleri menu is coming from xmlList.length. Now i want to mark the menuitem that is currently active (as in the picture is beeing shown) but i really cant accomplish this (Googling intense and trial end error).

I've got a rollover menu bar of buttons that opens up a list of sub-items below each button when you roll over it. Pretty standard, right? Then once that movie plays (sub-items appearing), a thin box appears both around those items and the menu bar's actual button, meaning that once the mouse pointer moves off of either the button of the sub-items, the movie disappears (that's what my invisible button is set to do). And herein lies my problem.
While the button works almost always, if I drag the mouse pointer very quickly over the active area, the button fails to activate. So I can literally keep my pointer at one side of the screen and race it over to the other side, activating all the sub-menus and making them stick in their 'open' position. Someone on these forums suggested increasing my framerate and I've set this to maximum. It makes the problem less frequent, but doesn't fix it. This problem happens both in the preview window and my browser (Firefox, Vista).So I guess at this point I either need a way to 1) Fix the problem and make them close, either by tweaking what I already have or making a rollover menu by a different means or2) Add something to each item like a 'timeout', where if there's no pointer present for, say, 1 sec, the it closes automatically. But I don't know if such a thing exists, especially in an older version like MX.
Well, I was able to simply enough (after about an hour of googling) implement i18n (internationalization) into my Flex application by having to reverse engineer the Flex SDK and do a lot of digging (a specific question on here helped me a lot! (with some updates for flex 4.5)).The problem is, I can't use my {getLand('key')} bind inside an <fx:XMLList> (how you define the contents of a <mx:MenuBar>. I've included some example i18n below, as well as an example of the menu bar.
<!-- Example of proper (working) i18n -->

I'm developing a multi monitor fullscreen application with Adobe Air 2.6. I can create a window for every monitor, and put those windows to fullscreen.
theWindow.stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE;
The problem comes when interacting with those windows. If I click the window on the main monitor (the one with the dock and menu bar) no problem, but when I click any other window the system menu bar becomes visible. I've tried resizing the main window to match the monitor size and moving it to a negative coordinate but it always stays behind the bar. Is it possible to do this in Air?
I'm trying to look for tutorials on getting my AIR application to OSX's menubar when minimized. However, when I try to search for it, I end up getting examples on doing it for the system tray on Windows and the Dock on macs. I don't want the app to stay on the dock when the window is not visible. I want it to minimize to the menubar instead. EDIT: I don't want to learn about working with the OS X dock (on this post at least). I'm interested in working with the menubar. (See image below.)

I have a menuBar that looks like this:
<mx:MenuBar id="myMenuBar" labelField="@label" cornerRadius="8" color="black" fillColors="[green, green]" itemClick="menuItemClickHandler(event);"
dataProvider="{menuBarCollection}" change="onTopSelection(event)" />
The XML for my menuBar looks like this:
<menuitem label="Vision">
</menuitem>
<menuitem label="About">

As you can see there is Vision and Contact Us but the eventHandler doesn't know when those two are clicked. What is the correct way to implement the eventHandler?
I have an mx:Menubar, which I need to be able to open/expand based on the key pressed. For e.g., if Shift + R is pressed, it needs to open the 'Request' topmenu. Then if Shift + N is pressed, it should load the 'New request' module in the module loader. I've already implemented the MenuBar/module-loading functionality with the mouse, but I haven't been able to implement the keyboard shortcuts. I found a nice sample at [URL].
However, the solution directly performs the action (e.g. Shift + N to load the 'New request' module). The menu does not open/expand when you press the shortcut as though you had hovered your mouse over it (e.g. Shift + R to open/expand the 'Request' topmenu and then Shift + N to load the 'New request' module).
I would like to have menuItems with checks that show what element of the menu has been selected. I know it is possible to have checks with XML. But is it possible to have variables in XML because the elements of my menu are variables. If there is a component on sale that has exactly the design of the flash component menuBar + menu and that is more easy to program,

I have a MenuBar which opens downwards except when there isn't enough room to open it. For example, it may have 10 items but there's only enough room to display 4-5. Flex then tries to display the menu above the bar, which is completely off the screen. Is there some property or style I'm overlooking to always force it to open downward?
EDIT: Thought I'd give some clarification as to how I plan to circumvent the issue. If I can always force the menubar to be orientated downwards, I can make it into a scrollable menubar displaying only a few items at worst.
I wish to skin MenuBar, and change it's itemSkin to something else, like different background color for each menu item.

View 6 RepliesI've got about 6 buttons laid out, one on top of the other in a list format. In their normal state the buttons are grey in colour, when I rollover them, the buttons flash and turn to orange. Now, what I need to happen is this: I want the buttons to stay orange once clicked and only roll out back to grey when the user has clicked on another button in the list. I've been told that the best way to do this is via adding a listener, however I am a little unsure as to how to go about this. I've checked the flash help file and have a basic understanding of how listeners work...but can't really wrap my head around applying it to this situation. Perhaps I will need to have all the buttons as separate broadcasters?
