ActionScript 3.0 :: Auto-scroll DataGrid Content When Dragging A Row?
Nov 30, 2007
autoscroll functionality in Flex2's DataGrid while dragging an element row in it. Is there such a functionality or not?
I mean, I have a DataGrid which contains a collection of rows. The collection is longer that the DataGrid could fit, hence there is a vertical scrollbar that allows to get to the rest of rows. I have enabled the functionality of moving-by-draging to be able to change the order of rows in the DataGrid (see the simple code below).
Now, let's say I want to move the first (topmost) row to the last (bottom) position of the collection. When the top row is displayed, the bottom one is not visible (not without moving the scrollbar). So when I drag the top row, I cannot drop it beyond the few currently visible rows. Surely I could drag a bit and then scroll to bottom and then drag a bit more, but that's not the point. The point is - is there a functionality of autoscroll implemented in Flex2 DataGrid, where the collection would scroll itself automatically to allow one to drag beyond the few visible rows?
In Adobe's official PDF document "Flex2 Developer's Guide", section "Using drag-and-drop with list-based controls" I've found this sentence:
Quote:
If the control has active scroll bars, hovering the mouse pointer over the controls top or bottom scrolls the contents.
Well, it suggests that there should be this functionality I ask about. But it doesn't work for me.
Here's the simple code that builds the DataGrid in Flex2, that fails to autoscroll, if you care to check it:
I'm trying to create a layout not too different from the feed reader sample.The problem I'm having is that I'm finding the documentation unclear. There are so many different types of layouts that I don't know which one to use when.In the example, on the right side there are a few horizontal panels:
this does not include the details panel and the resize handle.I would like to swap the DataGrid with my custom content which is basically a sprite. The problem I have is that I cannot just include a sprite, because it does some funky resizing. I would like the scroll bar to appear when the content is too tall, and have have the same skin for the background as the DataGrid.
I know something about this was posted on the forums but I don't find the specific post.I need to have the scroll panel to auto-scroll until you roll over and I need to have this panel to scroll continuously to right or left.[code]
I have a fully functioning scrollbar (MOUSE_DOWN and MOUSE_MOVE) and a fully functioning mouse wheel scroll. But I would like some code to move the scroll button according to my contents y position, when using the mouse wheel scroll.
When I was starting to drag any element, mouse wheel scrolling is turned off, how to scroll while dragging?I'm newbie here, so I can't insert a picture, here's a link
I can drag an object from one scrollpane to another, but I can't duplicate the object or everything will fall apart as you see if you try to scroll up and down in my .fla.
What I want it to do in the end:
I want the box to create a bigger size of itself, drag the larger clone that it created from pane A into pane B and scrolling in the panes would work. I'd go with attachmovie to make a bigger clone, but I'm not sure on how to do that.
If anyone could create a .fla with these things in order I would be so happy!
I can't attach a rar or a .fla... I can't post a link either.. I'm going to bend the rules just a little to attach my .fla.. The link is: http : // www .filedropper . com /2panes1box
I have five buttons in my site which means five pages. I want to put auto scroll down effect in one of the page. So that, when one of the button is clicked on, it automatically scroll down to a place in the page, without the user scrolling down by himself. I'm using flash and actionscript 2.0
I am currently working on a slideshow that loads it's images from xml. I want the slideshow to scroll automatic left and right. Now the problem is that i can't figure out how to tell flash that if the last image is in frame how to scroll backward till it reaches the first image.It can scroll automatic forward until it reaches the last image.I can tell flash when the last image has reached te stop sliding.
I have a datagrid. How can I put the focus on a particular row (ie row #5) of a datagrid via actionscript? I'm partially there, but not quite: stage.focus = myDG; This obviously just sets the focus to the datagrid and not the row.
I have a client that is looking for a autoscrolling loop of thumbnail images as seen at this site [URL]. I have the CS3 Flash, Photoshop Dreamweaver etc and am a very persistent (read stupid) self taught entry level website builder.
I am trying to get a menu that has videos that I will scroll through at a certain speed.Right now I have 30FPS which I have tried to lower which doesn't' control the speed of the auto scroll? Below is the code.
I have a dynamic text box called logtxt. I add text to this whenever i click on my box object.(this works fine) I have a UIScrollBar attached to the text box(still works). But I need it to automatically scroll to the bottom whenever I add text.
I'm trying to create a vertical auto scroll. The idea is to move up or down the image gallery when the user passes the mouse over a mask movie clip. Problem is I'm not sure how to determine the right coordenates form this movie clip. Let me explain, I can imaginary divide this movie clip in half. Top half let me move the gallery to the bottom and bottom half let me move the gallery to the top. It will be great if some easing could be added in the process.
I want to get my text to auto scroll vertically it is for a news section for one of my customers... I am loading the text from an external txt file. I have got everything to work but can figure out how to make it auto scroll itself.
I tried to make auto scroll for contents. It works but someting is wrong [AS] function core() { buttons_height = 566.3; //this is the height of the contents (buttons) mask_height = 319; //this is the height of the mask (mask) the_speed = 6; if (mask.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, false)) { mousepos = _ymouse; [Code] .....
how to make the output window auto scroll? i.e. If I have an enter frame event that increments a number and I trace that number, when the traces fill the output window, I cannot see the current traces. I have to go grab the scroll bar and drag it down and since it is constantly changing it is tough to keep up.
I'm using Flex 4. Have PHP backend and mysql database with one table consisting of multiple rows. I take the raw data from the result event and decode it using JSON. I then dump the data into an ArrayCollection that I use as my datagrid's data provider.
My question is how can I tell when someone inserts a new row into the mysql table so that I can automatically refresh my ArrayCollection, thus seamlessly updating my datagrid one element at a time? Right now, it's just a one time call and the connection is closed. If someone inserts a new row into the database my program doesn't recognize, unless I restart it. I'd like to auto-update the AC whenever a single new row is inserted into the mysql database. Is there a way I can "listen" for this change?
I'm building a website made up of different swf pages. After some initial troubles, I have now managed to connect each one and they now all link to each other, however I have a couple of strange problems that I cannot work out.I have one page that contains a non-editable text scroll box, which when previewed in the seperate file works fine, but when it appears in the test for the linked files the scroll box turns into a blank editable text box. I don't understand why this is happening?
My second problem is with my photos page. The page has image thumbnails for the user to click on which displays a larger version of the photo using fade in animation. Again, this works fine when I preview the individual page, however when I test it through the linked files the animation automatically plays and cycles through all the photos. It doesn't do it when previewed individually.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'd be so grateful as I need to have this sorted by the end of the day. I'm using CS4.
I have a text document which is several pages long and will use scrolling capabilities. This text document will be contained in an external swf. There will be 6 buttons on the main timeline which will all load the external swf with the text document but I would like the text to autoscroll to a specific postion/part of document that relates to that topic/button. Also, i would like the scrollbar to move in relation to position/part of document in case the user stays in the external swf and reads and scrolls through the document. Is this possible? I have searched for a tutorial on this but have found nothing. I have tried different things but nothing has worked.
to make a single-line text box auto-scroll a text string horizontally with a way to detect new words on the x-axis.I'm trying to make a rhythm practice game for ESL students at my college, but I'm a linguistics major, not a programmer.I want something that is similar to the vocal part in Rock Band (minus the pitch, for now)So for a simplified, proof-of-concept version I just need it to detect when a new word has collided with a defined region of say "100 < x < 50".I know how to implement the microphone using activityLevel to detect when the user is speaking into the mic, but just not how to use activityLevel alongside the region detect of the new word in the text box.
I'm having trouble figuring out how I should go about making an auto scroll functionality for a text area in Flex.
What I have is a text area that loads text from an XML file at startup, and displays it in a text area. There is also an audio track that is plays along with the text. As the words from the audio file is read out, the corresponding word in the text area is highlighted red. What I want to happen is that if the highlighted word is below the visible range of the text area I want to scroll the scroll bar to adjust accordingly to the selection.
i have a flash based site and on the contact page of the site... when some one enters thier info on the contact page... they get a auto responder email... i mean whatever the user's email address is... an email is sent to that email address... and i wanna change that one![URL]the form is on contact page!
I have a list of items dynamically loaded from an XML file into my flash movie.Each item is positioned vertically with some buffer space between it and the preceding item.However, if the amount of items exceeds the flash objects height,then the excess items are invisible (because you cant scroll through them!).So then is it possible to make some form of call (undoubtedly an externalinterface call to a javascript function) that will resize the height of the flash object to fit all of this dynamically loaded content so that the browser's scrollbar is triggered allowing the user to scroll through?Or is it more practical to simply carve up my own scrollbar to fit the entire flash movie?
Is it possible to make text content for a site in Flash be changed/updated by someone without having to take the route of Flash? Like I have a text file in notepad, or Word and the text will automatically appear in the swf file?
