I have created a form consisting of several input text fields. My question is whether there's script to evaluate which text field is currently selected.

View 2 RepliesFlex's text-editing controls (mx:TextField, mx:TextArea) offer functions for doing "stuff" with the selected text (selectionBeginIndex, selectionEndIndex, setSelection), but the text-displaying controls (mx:Label, mx:Text) don't seem to offer anything of the sort.After some tinkering, I've tried subclassing Label then writing functions which give access to the underlying TextField instance... But even then, setting the selection didn't work![code]So, is there any better way to access/change the text which is selected in mx:Label and mx:Text controls? Are there "better" controls to use?

View 2 RepliesIs there any way to disable a few columns for a particular row in flex datagrid?
I have a datagrid with about 10 or more columns, say for example a few column names are: Item Id, Item Name, Item Status and VerifiedState. Initially I want the column Verified State to be disabled.
Now When the value of the column, Item Status is Review Passed for a particular row, I want the column VerifiedState to be enabled and editable. Is that possible in Flex datagrid.
I have a combo box and I am using the 'selectedIndex' property to give it a default value (a value that is at the first(0) index). Setting this property in my ActionScript does select the value in the dropdown but it does not add the selected value to the combo box's text area. How do you do this? I make has no affect on the text area.
Here is a sample of my code. The combo box list is populated fine. And the value is selected IN THE LIST. However, once you select a value in the list the combo box's list closes and nothing resides in the combo box's text field.
comboBoxData.insert(0, {data:1, label:"Show me something specific"});
for (i in animations) {
comboBoxData.push({data: i.uri ,label: "somevalue"});

I want to show a PDF in browser, from which user can select text, showing pdf is very easy i have done this using "pdfviewer" control, now i want to get the selected text which the user selects in the PDF, is there any way to achieve this?
Edit: If there is a flash/ flex solution at the client end that will as well, does anyone know about it, i tried one API, but that dint seem to work
On the website I'm currently working on:I'm running into a problem with my flash pages. If you click on About Us from the menu, on every computer but mine the About Us header at the end of the animation shows up as regular text and not the style I used.Here is a screen shot of what it is suppose to look like:on why this would happen? I thought it may be because the font wasn't installed throughout, but it's the same font as "embrace hope' which comes up fine.
View 2 Repliesi'm having some trouble with an actionscript-generated ComboBox here's my script
[Code]...
If i open .as file (or something else) in Notepad++ and select any variable or some other text, it will highlight all of the occurences of this variable in text of this opened document. And you can quickly see where this variable have assignemnts and so on. But in Flash CS3 i can only use standard Find dialog to search throug opened .as file and it finds only one occurence, then you hit "Find Next" and you've got another. Not so comfortable. So does that feature exist in Flash CS IDE, or something similar? (i can't find that)

View 2 RepliesSo.. all I want to do is to have a toggle button which changes label color to #999999 when selected. But for some reason i cant get it to work
This is my code for the button:
Code:
package components.main_content.submenu.submenu_link
{
import components.NoTruncationUITextField;
[Code]....
I tried assigning it with CSS (text-selected-color) and failed, i tried putting <mx:SetProperty target="{textField}" name="textColor" value="0x999999" /> in my skin class in all "selected" states but it worked only when run (one of the buttons starts as selected).. as soon as i ran my mouse over it or clicked another button it reverted back to the original color.
I'm using Flashbuilder 4. I have a Spark TextInput control, and I'm implementing a "Copy" button that will copy the selected text only from within this control to the clipboard (pretty much like the RMB Copy does).
View 1 RepliesI am having trouble trying to use actionscript to load different files when different values are changed. I am currently using a tilelist and they have different values so the code is something like this: (the title is just there, non-related)
if (startTileList.selectedItem.value == 1)
{
//textFile1 load here[code].........
So I want different text files to be loaded when different value is selected but I cannot seem to get it working.
I'm trying to change the selected date text-color.
<fx:Style>
.dateChooser{
selection-color:#000000;
}
</fx:Style>
I changed my selected date (FEB 23) selection-color to black, but I also need to change the text-color, let's say to white.
I'm creating a text editor and I want users to be able to select only part of a textfield and change the color.The problem I'm running into is the ColorPicker gains focus (I'm guessing) and the textfield loses it's "selection."All examples of text editing show the entire textfield changing color.
View 1 RepliesI want a feature in my site so that the user has the option of selecting a text on the page and pressing a button to listen to what is selected.
View 1 Replieshow can I change the color of a selected piece of text dynamically? I tried somethings like this (the function is called by a button):
Code:
function changeColor() {
Selection.setFocus(textFieldname);[code]....
but I guess 'sel' isn't a string, so i can't add textColor to it? Adding something like:
Code:
sel = new String(begin, end); doesn't help much.
I need a basic example containing 3 or 5 check-boxes and should display the names of check-boxes which are selected in a text-box.

View 1 RepliesI have a form and I need the first Input Text Box to be automatically selected when the user goes to the page. I got this code and put it in but I am still have problems Use this in the frame that holds the textbox: Selection.setFocus("textboxname"); The name has to be in quotes.
When I put that code in and tested the movie it worked great but once I put it into an html page it doesnt work anymore. The text in the input box is still selected but it isnt on focus so the user still has to click in the text box to input the text. Is there a way around this?
Is there any way possible I can get a dynamic text box to display the selected content of a list box.
I can email the project Im currently working on for better understanding.
