ActionScript 2.0 :: Tree Component ... AddTreeNodeAt & Branch - Add An Item At A Particular Location?
Jun 7, 2006
I've got a tree component which works great, but I'm trying to add an item at a particular location (immediately after the item they select) into the tree. The problem is that I'm trying to add an item within a branch. I'm using myTree.getDisplayIndex(myNode) to get the position within the tree, but it gives the location relative to the entire list, but I need to get the position relative to the parent (which is what myNode.parentNode.addTreeNodeAt is trying to write to)...
I'm using the iconField property of the Flex Tree to dynamically set the icon that a node should use. This works fine for leaf nodes but for branch nodes it doesn't seem to respect my iconField and instead just shows the default folder node.
I'm using the tree component for a little Windows Parody I'm making. In my .fla, There's a tree component that loads an external XML file. I can't figure out how to add custom icons to my component, though.I know it's possible to set the icons for just the default folder and file icons, but since it's a Windows Parody, there'll be different icons for different file types, folder types, etc.In other words, I'd like to have a different icon for every item in my Tree component.
Also, I don't need to have an XML file loaded. If there's an easy way that does it all within Flash, please tell me. I just need to be able to handle events from the Tree.
I have created a MyTreeItemrenderer extending TreeItemrenderer.
However, I do not want any label, folder, disclosure icon nor icon. I want to dispaly every node of the tree with my own graphic like eg: a line, round image etc.,
I was wondering if anyone had access to source code that would allow me to draw lines between objects. I have examples of the standard one line between 2 objects.
What I'm looking for is an example of how to draw a branching line. I.e. Starts as a line coming from an object and then branches out to other objects. I don't want to draw multiple lines from the same object because I need the objects to be related and the lines to have a settable property.
The added issue is that I want the number of branches available to be settable by the user. But if I can find code that dooes the branching lines, it probably wouldnt be too hard to tweek.
I've created an mxml page that displays a tree control, however the data is only being displayed as branches. Even items that are leaves are being displayed as branches. <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.collections.ArrayCollection; public function init():void { var item:Object; var array:Array = new Array(); [Code] .....
I have added an event handler for itemOpening event for the tree component inside the handler basically ido myTree.selectedItem = event.item ; and then add the new data inside myTree.selectedItem.children.push(newData); But It do not show simultaneously instead I have to close , open the branch again to see the new data. I think I need to refresh something after adding new data but dont know what? below is the code but without the declaration , script tag etc
I'm trying to make a Flex Tree Component display the children of a sprite in a hierarchical way. Moreover, dragging the items on the FlexTree would resort and reparent the items. I have special Elements set as Folders. This would allow other elements to be added there as a children by dragging an element on the tree and dropping it there. I have a failed attempt which works, but breaks when I try to add folders. Basically, it fails at reparenting the items by dragging and resorting folders and that Does anyone know of a component or something which can do this, has anyone have created any of this or could anyone give me a clue?
Is there any way to put scroll of tree component in left side of component or creating a custom scrollbar for tree component i asked in many forums but i think all flash designers are dead
I want to be able to select an item from my list component and fire a function directly related to selecting that item. list is called "tidlist" function is "selecttid(n)" the "n" needs to be replaced with the index number... so if run my swf and the list component displays my items... when i select one (the third one for example)... i want to fire "selectTid(3)".... cant seem to grasp.

I just read a comment at FlexExamples: One thing to note about the tree is that it is really just a list in which items are displayed. What that means is, you can't really drop somthing "into" folder unless the folder is open. Even in that case the user experience isn't quite right. So try moving everything out of one of the folders and then collapse that empty folder. If you drop something "on" the folder, it actually winds up between the target folder and the one below or above. This is indicated by the black line showing up as you move the mouse over the folders. If you "open" the folder (the only way to tell it is open is by the arrow) and then try it, you end up with an additional drop zone that is basically the bottom half of the opened, empty folder. This is also indicated by the black lines position.
It would be better if the middle section of any item could always be the drop zone for "add to this folder" and the top and bottom edges could be for dropping above or below respectively.I've just come to the same problem. Has somebody already managed this problem? In my case, I have dragMoveEnabled in the tree and offer the ability of dragging the tree items. But it is impossible to drag an item into another item that is empty. You can only drop the dragged item above or underneath an empty item.
How can I use multiple item renderers in mx:Tree depending on item's depth/level in tree?For example. For the first level items I want to use label with button and for second level items combobox
I'm doing a drag and drop operation on a tree using some help from Adobe's quick Starts:[URL]
The code suggested is roughly this:
var dropTarget:Tree = Tree(evt.currentTarget); var i:int = dropTarget.calculateDropIndex(evt); myTree.selectedIndex = i;
[Code].....
EDIT: I forgot to post that my current workaround is setting the selectedIndex = -1 after I get my node:XML. I'm afraid that if something bogs on the processor the user may see it select then deselect.
I have a Tree Control inside my Flex Application which I want to edit on a doubleclick on a tree item. I found the properties doubleClickEnabled="true", doubleClick="startEditMode()", and editable="true". With these functions I can detect a double click and I can change the editable property to true based on a double click. The problem is that after I double clicked on a Item i have to click once more to really enter the edit mode. That doesn't seem to be intuitive at all
I have a XML based Tree Control. The XML Structure is recursive, so the children's can have the same Element as the parent. I now want to let the user add and remove the elements. Do do so I need to get the parent element of the selected Item. Following code I already collected together:
var selected:XML = treeControl.selectedItem; parent.insertChildAfter(selected:XML, newElement);
I just don't know how to get to the selected parents node as there is no such method like treeControl.selectedItem.parent.
I have a tree control and I want to give the user the ability that he can move up and down the element he just selected with a up and a downbutton. The tree gets generated from XML. I managed to insert the selected item a second time at a other place, with the following code:
var parentXML:XML = XML(containerTree.selectedItem).parent(); var upperItem:XML = topContainer.source[containerTree.selectedIndex-1]; parentXML.insertChildBefore(upperItem,XML(containerTree.selectedItem));
but then I have the item there twice in the List. How can I remove to reinsert it?
my renderer contains a canvas in it, i add some title-window, every time i see my tree previously added Title-Windows are visible, i want to access each n every item in tree and remove previosly added all windows from the rendere. how access all the item renderer in AS3 ?
Now when i click Rename a popUp should be shown like
OldName : Parent1(Text Input showning present Name) Enter New Name: Parent1NewName(Text Input for entering New name) OK | CANCEL Buttons
Afetr Entering the new name,click OK,popup should be closed and need to get the value in the treeItemRenderer.
I have the logic to rename the Parent1 in TreeItemRenderer and also I m able to get the Parent1 in the popup OldName TextInput.But after entering the new name i m not able to get that new name in the TreeItemRenderer.
i was in situation that tree is re-using my custom item-renderer.. is there any method or way around we can stop tree to reuse.. and always create a new item-renderer for new item..
i would like to create a photo gallery, which contain 3 items per column, and the row is depend on the total items in an array.i try to explain clearly with icons: Let's say i have total 8 items in the array. Each column i would like to place 3 items only, means i will have something like below:But my current script goes wrong when it reach item number 7;
the item 7, i would like to locate it at x=0, but it show at x = 660.
var col:int=0; var row:int=0; var colMax = 3;[code]....--------------------
I have created a custom item renderer for the tree, i have added some children in create children function, my problem is that sometimes i need to show these children and sometimes i don't, depending on clicking on a button which also i have added at create children, the problem is that i had to create the item even if i don't want it to be visible, and removed it by making visible false, and this costs a lot of memory, i have tried to create it at buttons click listener but when scrolling the child disappears, and it may appear again if i keep scrolling up and down.. i am trying to add the child just when i need it to be visible, is this possible or i have to create it on child creation method?
I have a Flex (3.5) Tree with drag & drop support, but the problem is that after I drag an item (node) and drop it, it's supposed to be the selected item in the tree, but for some reason it's not highlighted.
Is there a way (a method) to obtain the location of an item no matter where it is. Maybe something that looks for an item finds it's path and puts that path at to a _global
just facing a difficulty with tree control drag drop..Suppose i have tree with drag-drop enabled.I want to which node(id) is droped inside which node. 1]if i drag "Cat1" node inside "Cat3",i want to identify ids of siblings of "cat1",and "cat3".2]in general i want to know the ids of current element being moved along withits new parent and new position and save these postions.3] Also "cat4" when moved outside "cat3",i want know its position and its siblings id.
I have a Flex tree with an ArrayCollection as data provider. The collection holds an array of CategoryVO objects. Each object can have another array of CategoryVO objects inside it's "child" attribute. This way the tree displays the data correctly. Now I want to get the parent of a specific item, e.g. tree.selectedItem. Using XML as data provider the item parent is avaiable thorugh the parent() method. But I can't convert my data to XML. How can I get an item's parent? Perphaps using the tree's dataDescriptor?
