ActionScript 2.0 :: Use The Combobox Function That MX?
Jul 19, 2002
I want to use the combobox function that MX has, but how do script it? The one that I've got from the help site is quite vague(I guess that is why I spent more time in flashkit and kirupa more than Macromedia site, even the help-forum is not that user friendly{personal commnets}), that is
function onChange(component){
if (componet._name=="check1"){
listBox1_mc.setEnabled(componet.getValue());{
else_if (componet._name=="check2"){
listBox2_mc.setEnabled(componet.getValue());}
}
I would understand that this could be a lenghty subject, maybe somebody could guide me to a place that I could get a tutorial?

Plus, my movie is taking ages to submit, even though there is nothing on the stage. There are components in the library though. Would this cause it to take about 5 seconds to export to swf?

I'm developing an AIR app that requires a menu to show only during the first run. In it the user will be able to choose the desired language for the app to run in.
I'm displaying this menu without a problem but I need it to stay visible until the "select language" comboBox is changed and then return the selected choice's data value.
how to return a value only after the combo box is changed.
function promptFRMenu():String{
FRMenu.enabled = FRMenu.visible = true; //when I detect the app is running for the

I'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.

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.

**Warning** The linkage identifier 'ComboBox' was already assigned to the symbol 'ComboBox', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'GUI MC/Combo Boxes/abc', since linkage identifiers must be unique.**Warning** The linkage identifier 'ComboBox' was already assigned to the symbol 'ComboBox', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'GUI MC/Combo Boxes/def', since linkage identifiers must be unique.
Both of my ComboBoxes has the same identifier.I could not change the identifier through the properties tab because it is greyed out.

I have some mouseclick event, and within the function that handles this event there's a combobox appearing. after the combobox appeared, I want to be directed to another listevent which is triggered when there's a change in the selection, but, I also want to pass the previous mouseclick event for there is some information in that event that I want to use within the listevent handling function.
As I understand, you cannot pass parameters along to eventhandlers, so I was wondering what is the best way to operate in this case. I've read you can make custom events, but never saw an event passed as a parameter, and was wondering if that's even possible.

I can use this to trace the new combobox value every time the user changes it:
Actionscript Code:
// Create listener object.var cbListener:Object = new Object();// Create event handler function.cbListener.change = function (evt_obj:Object) { trace("Currently selected item is: " + evt_obj.target.selectedItem.label);}// Add event listener.my_cb.addEventListener("change", cbListener);
But that doesn't do anything when I select the same value. This is what I want it to do: when using the combobox some textfields should fill itself with some default values belonging to that label. Then the user can change those values if desired. When the user then chooses another combobox label the fields get filled with the default values of that label again. But when the user chooses the label previously set, the textfields don't get refilled, cause the listener object only reacts when the label value has been changed, not when the label value is the same as previously chosen. Is there a way to make it react upon chosing any label? Not just others, but every label?

If I have a ComboBox component on stage and it has 11 options in it, is it possible to populate a dynamic text field with text based on which one of the 11 options are selected?ComboBox has instance name of 'age' and has 11 options to choose from (Opt1, Opt2, Opt3, Opt4, Opt5, etc.).There are also 11 dynamic text fields (instance and variable names of c1, c2, c3, etc.). I want the text fields to be blank unless the corresponding option is chosen. So, if Opt1 is selected from ComboBox 'age' then populate 'c1' with the number 1, if 'Opt2' is selected populate 'c2' with 2 and so on, otherwise the text fields stay blank.

I have a data grid that has ComboBoxes in two of its columns.
What I need to do is get the values of those bombo boxes when a user highlights the row of the grid NOT when the user uses the comboBox. I understand how to pull the values out once the change handler is invoked on the comboBox, but I'm not seeing a way to get at the comboBoxes that belong to the currently highlighted gridRow.
I'm sure it's really straight forward, but I'm just not able to find any reference on how it's done.

The ComboBox looks like this: [URL] All I did was drag the ComboBox from the Controls section in the Design section of the UI onto the screen. I haven't changed any settings, no special css, just used the default ComboBox and this is what I get.

I have a DataGrid with a ComboBox as an ItemRenderer for one of my columns. When the user selects a row, I want to get the ComboBox's selected value for the selected row.
EDIT: I should have mentioned that the dataField2_Array property in myData is actually an Array is the dataProvider for the ComboBox. Each object in myData could have completely different values in that Array so the ComboBox in each row of the DataGrid could have completely different options to pick from.Some sample code:
<mx:DataGrid id="myGrid"
dataProvider="{myData}">
<mx:columns>[code].....
