ActionScript 3.0 :: ComboBox Set Selected Item
Jul 15, 2008
Flash documentation says this is possible, but cb.selectedItem={label:'labeltext',data:'data'}; is a no go for me. Maybe I'm missing something obvious? Setting selectedIndex works great, but this should work too.

When I select an item from the comboBox-list the selected item stays blank(visually) but the comboBox-list remains populated and change-event keeps firing.
This happens when I embed fonts and modifies or removes items from an existing combobox.
Here's the code that causes the anomoly:
comboBox.textField.setStyle("textFormat", fontFormat);
comboBox.textField.setStyle("embedFonts", true);

I am using a combobox for the us states, link. The label is set to the full name of the state, while the value attribute holds the abbreviation. What I want to do is to get the selected item's value. So I tried combo.selectedItem.value and combo.selectedItem.@value, but neither of them worked.

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've just recently started out using Flash Builder and have a question surrounding states. In fact I'm not entirely sure it is related to states but read on and I hope it will become clearer. I currently have a custom component that contains 3 comboboxes. This resides in a TabNavigator component. The TabNavigator consits of 5 pages (Tabs). The custom container holding the comboboxes should display the same selected data across all Tabs. ie. If I am in Tab1 and select an item from one of the comboboxes then click on Tab2 I need to mirror the combobox's selection in Tab2.

Isn't there a better way to accomplish this?[code]...
All I want to do is make sure that when I update the item that the comboBox is pointing to internally, that it's selectedIndex also update so that the label within the ComboBox reflects the new value.

I have a ComboBox with a label function like this one:
private function fieldLabelFunction(item:Object):String {
return resourceManager.getString('dashboard',"SS." + item);
}
When I change locales, the labels display correctly in the ComboBox's dropdown list, or if I change a selection. However, the currently selected item's label doesn't refresh at first. Is there a way to force the labelFunction to get called again?

When I set style color, it changes both the text color for the selected item/component label and the text in the dropdown menu.
color
Type: uint Format: Color CSS Inheritance: yes
Color of text in the component, including the component label. The default value is 0x0B333C.
I would really like the label to be white and the text to be black.

What I want to do is, when I select an item in the datagrid, the selected item of the dropdown should be the correct one (the one which has the field idCompSuperioara equal to the third element in the selected datagrid row).

I have used states in my application.The thing is I have made the first item in my list to be selected. so I gave like this,
if(itemIndex == 0)
this.currentState="selected";
this works fine.The problem is when other item is selected the first item does not change its state,it remains in the selected state until its clicked.My code looks like this,
<s:BorderContainer id="outerCont" width="275" height="100" borderVisible="false"
backgroundColor.normal="#3D3C3C" backgroundAlpha.selected="0.1"
backgroundColor.selected="{data.color}">
My states are like this,
<s:states>
<s:State name="normal" />
<s:State name="hovered" />[code]........

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.

I have an XML object in Flex4 that is populating a tree (amongst other things).
I need to be able to find the name of the selected item when it is clicked in the tree.
For example:
<Object id="">
<Image></Image>
<Cycle></Cycle>
[Code]....
The tags are all predefnied by me so I will know what they are, but I need to be able to know if the item a user has selected is "Object" and do something, or if they select "Action" do something else.
What is the syntax to get the names of these in flex4 and compare them?

I'm working on a flash navigation widget for this site: [URL]. As you can see, when you click on one of the buttons on the ring, the ring rotates down to the item you selected. This was accomplished with the Rotation Smooth - Helper component that I got here: [URL]. My problem is that the component is quite limited in functionality and doesn't work as expected. For example if you click on the "Download" button, and then back on the "Products" button, the ring jumps back to that location instead of rotating back smoothly.

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
// first time, the dialog box is enabled
