ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Results To ComboBox Or List Component?
Apr 29, 2009
I am working on a quiz application for a client. I currently have an array that as the user goes from one question to another, it holds the question number if the user answers the question incorrectly. At the end I have the results of the array displayed on a dynamic text field.I was wondering if there is a way to display the contents of the array at the end on a comboBox or list component. And, is there a way to make the items on the comboBox or list component be clickable so that the user could navigate to a different place on the project (like the section that explains how to answer the question correctly).Right now i have the array being created at the beggining:var questionsArray:Array = new Array();I have acommand so that if the question is wrong, add the number of the quesiton to the array:questionsArray.push(" #1");and I display the results of the array at the end:

I have a combobox and list component on the stage. The combobox has 3 selections. How do I get it so that each selection triggers the specific xml file to load into the list component? I can't get them to communicate to each other.

I have a combo box on the stage in a main SWF. when the user selects an item in the dropdown list a child SWF is launched into level0 using loadMovieNum and data is left behind using _global variables for the child SWF to use. this works fine and well. but inside the new child SWF that is launched is a button that takes you back to the previous main SWF with the ComboBox. its done using the same method loadMovieNum into level0. and the main SWF loads but you cannot open the ComboBox. it will not drop down. the halo green color on hover over is there and it gets darker when you click, but the list doesn't drop down. here is some code that I think may be significant to the situation...

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.

I am working on an older Flash project created in CS3 ActionScript 2.0 How can I make the pointer cursor change to the hand when hover over a list item?_root.slidePanel.myList'myList' is the list. I have traced out the contents of the List MC and it has a child MC called 'content_mc'. I assumed this was the object containing all of my list items but the only members of this MC I can see (when tracing them out) are 'setRGB' and 'searchKey'.

I'm building a top view 2D map, that it's objects are stored on the server.The kind of objects are 10 and might be a photo, label, button, lists, mix of them or labels with tooltips.The component must request the "areas" that are missing on screen.An area is 1000x1000 px and is cached in flex.To move in the map, will be like in google maps (drag-and-drop).I should be able to have another list and move objects from one to another using drag-an-drop on objects. Ex.: I grab an objects from a list and I move it on this map, I release the mouse button and the item is placed there.Now the problem is: I build a custom component for this trying to emulate the item renderer for performance and recyclage, implement drag-and-drop on objects and request the areas that are missing?
or
I extend the List component from spark and I add some features as multiple kind of itemrenderers and use recycle on them. Of course it must be able to request the missing areas on the screen and cache it's data.Maybe create a custom layout is needed too.What I need is something that must be really fluid, so the lighter this component is, the better.
UPDATE: *There will be not any object over another.
*I will not use hitTest on bitmaps because all bitmaps are wrapped in another component,as they,for now are itemrenderers.
Anyway I already begin to do this using a class that extends the SkinnableDataContainer and a custom layout. As the layout is not like a grid, is sparse, random items at diferent points(x, y).How to get the localX and localY, relative to item renderer and not to the Spark List, from a DragEvent in Flex 4?

I have two Lists (components) on stage. The first one (mainList populates from an XML called topics.xml
[Code]...
on event handler change, I want to load the second list on the other list component, called subList..It's not loading.. I believe it's because when it reads the data from my topics list, it reads topic1.xml instead of "topic1.xml" ( reads without the quotes). If I unquote line v.list.load("subtopic.xml"), it works, but I need it to be loaded from the XML..

I have a bit of a problem (since I'm not used to binding with AS3), the thing is that I want to do this kind of data binding:
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="[URL]"
layout="vertical"
verticalAlign="middle"
backgroundColor="white">
[Code] .....
But the ComboBoxes are being created dynamically with AS3, everything is working except I cant bind the second ComboBox dataProvider to be the XMLList in the first ComboBox's selectedItem.

I didn't find any clear explanation how list in ComboBox could be sorted alphabetically. It's very annoying that this ComboBox takes data from array (label/data) in random order.

When a combobox is elected in the flex app, there is a quick flicker, then the combobox needs to be selected again in order to get the dropdown to open. After that, the dropdown works as expected, but only while selecting the control subsequent times while on the form. Reloading the form requires the double selection again.

Because of screen size, I must ensure we're only displaying necessary data to the user.I have a drop down box that contains only 5 items and I would like that when an item is selected, it doesn't appear in the drop down box (since technically it's showing twice, once at the top as the selected item and once in the list). how I would achieve this? I tried using a custom CellRender and overriding the "set selected" function to call this.visible = false if selected is true, but that simply hides the item but does not remove it from the layout of the drop down list.

I want to show some different-2(dynamic) icon in my combo Box drop down list. I am able to show icon in combo box list but I want to change the color of this icon for different-2 values.
Here is ActionScript Code:
for(i=0;i<len;i++){
newColor = "0x"+_root.colorList.items[i].ColorCode;
labelText = _root.colorList.items[i].DeptCodeComboDesc;
comboClip.clip.opaqueBackground = parseInt(newColor);
_root.colorListCombo.addItem({label:labelText,pIcon:"comboClip"});
"comboClip" is a clip which I want to show as icon in combobox.

I would like to populate a combobox from XML file in Flash. Then, when a list item of combobox is pressed then thumbnail image of that particular category is being loaded in a movieclip from XML file.
I spent a hard time to achieve this, but there is no success.
I used this code so far to accomplish this task.
Code:
var myXML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;

I am using Flash 8.Say I have 3 datas in the ComboBox - "one, two and three". We find that in SWF "one" is seen in the ComboBox even though the user hasn't selected the data from the ComboBox. "one" has become the default selection in the CoomboBox.I want the ComboBox component to be empty when swf is run.But I don't want the empty thing also to be shown when the dropdown is clicked.

I have searched high and low on this one and there are many different answers and suggestions.I am loading my text in via XML. I have made sure that it is UTF8 encoded.For any other dynamic text I would simply embed the characters I need.
So far I can change the colour and the size of the text in the combobox but just can't seem to figure out how to embed the french characters I need in there.I have created my own font and embedded the characters I need into a dynamic text field on the stage. The created font is named "appfont"

I'm trying to make a simple drop down list where each selection has its own value. I have a combobox with the following parameters.
Editable = false
Labels = choice1, choice2
Data = 0,1
Row Count = 8
Change Handler = blank
I have an instance name of "type" on the component. Now I have a dynamic text field with a var of "price" and on the first frame of my movie I have this code
if (_root.type == 0) {
_root.price = 10;
}
if (_root.type == 1) {
_root.price = 20;
}
But its not showing these values in my text field when I select those choices.

I'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.

I have a simple ComboBox onstage, with 5 options in it. Each one has a textual label, and is assigned a numeral "data" in the Component Inspector (1,2,3,4,5). I'm trying to get the playhead to move to a specific frame, according to which option is selected, and can't make it work. The trace turns out fine, but the playhead stays in place. (The ComboBox is called my_cb).
PHP Code:
var cbListener:Object = new Object();
cbListener.change = function(evt_obj:Object) {
trace("Value changed to: "+evt_obj.target.selectedItem.label);};
my_cb.addEventListener("change", cbListener.change);
cbListener.change = function(evt_obj:Object) {
var itemName:Number = new Number();
itemName = evt_obj.target.selectedItem.data;
if(itemName == 1) { gotoAndStop(10);}

I've actaully got all of this working.All I need now is to make the comboBox text HTMLtext so that I can use the HTML tags to color the text different colors or bold them.It might be important to mention that I need to change only some of the things listed, not the entire list. So if my list on the comboBox is "item 1", "item 2", "item 3", "item 4", I only want "item 1" in bold and colored red.
