Currently using the Scrollpane component, allows me to enter a 'source' via the properties.However as Im trying to use an MVC Model/View/Control approach .. I need to send the content some paramaters.
View 2 RepliesI have a scrollpane who's source is a movieclip filled with checkboxes.It works fine, except that some of the checkboxes names are cut off.The checkboxes are for science words.Biology is fine Astromony comes out Astronom with the y cut off. Adjusting the scrollpane width does not help Adjusting the movieclip width makes it look bizarre like it's stretched.
View 0 RepliesI'm creating one sprite named 'holder' and I'm adding childs to it. finally I use sp.source = "holder"; NOTE: scrollPane is in stage, having instance name = sp, holder is AS created.
this works very good, but I need to on button press refresh data on holder. So I want to complete remove holder, so my function can recreate it with new elements and then define scrollPane.source = "holder";
How can I do this?
var holder:Sprite = new sprite();
holder.name = "holder";
addChild(holder); // this adds holder to stage
//
// add elements to holder

im currently working on building a search app which allows filtering of a list of products.
NOTE: shift+leftClick to drag and reorder the lists, just left click to use scrollbars and buttons.

here is a preview of the stage as it is at the moment.
when the scroll pane is created (dynamically) i also create a new instance of my own class which is as follows . . . (the content for the scrollpane)
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
[Code].....
holding shift and clicking allows you to drag the scroll panes into a different order. clicking one button in each of the scroll panes works fine. if you try clicking a second button in either of the scroll panes you will notice you have to click twice.
I always have a question about override custom event. I am not sure why or what do to inside override function. I searched google but didn't get too many feedbacks. EDIT: My projects seem work fine even though I use my custom event without override. Anyone could explain it?
View 2 RepliesI haven't been able to find a non-hack way to use Drag and Drop with the AS3 ScrollPane component.
Here's what I'm doing:
I create a container mc, which I then add a bunch of children to. The children are what I want to drag.
However, dragging is constrained to the boundaries of the ScrollPane. This seems to me like a limitation of the ScrollPane component.
I know it can be worked around with attaching a dupe mc to the cursor pos, then manipulating other mcs on mouse up, but..
I have a MovieClip inside a ScrollPane. Inside this MovieClip i have buttons. What i want to know is: how to click a button inside a Movie Clip, that is inside a scrollpane, and make it load a swf outside the scrollpane?

i have a Air Project in which i have added three extenal source folders. but when i reopen project or strat flash builder again i get icon on those folder like this but when i open the configuration for that project and try to validate the path and adding it again i get message like this but the path is valid. proof is this pic what could be possible error,,, is there any way that i when ever re-open project i get no warning and able to navigate through the linked source code. now i am doing it
1- deleting on of the linked folder
2- again adding that folder.
So inside my src folder I have my app.mxml file. I have a source directory pointed to my actionscript library.It appears that Flex does not look inside that source directory including an .as file within the master mxml file.
Code:
<mx:Script source="com/domain/something/somethingelse/app.as"/>
I could just have the main app.as file inside the src folder along with my app.mxml file but it would be nice if it could live in the actionscript library.

I'm trying to do the override a method from the MovieClip I created. The method I'm trying to override is stop() method. I didn't write a single line of code, my movie clip is created using entirely the flash interface. I figured out how to add actions to the movie clip when a frame is reached but I'm stucked now when I'm trying to override a MovieClip method.
Does anyone know how to override default keys in Flash?
I want to implement a 'CTRL + L' shortcut, but it seems flash uses this as a default shortcut to display line number info in the output.
I have two child classes ClassA and ClassB both inherit the same base class.
I also have a function that has a parameter which could be an instance of either child classes.
function Test(instance):void //instance is either a ClassA or ClassB instance
{
instance.DoSomething();
}
However, when I run the test, it's always the BaseClass.DoSomething() get called. How can I use the same function (DoSomething()), but call child class function instead of the base class one?
Is it possible to override the default focus event on the in-built TextField class? So for example when a textfield gains focus a custom event is triggered rather than the default one? I know we can use the onSetFocus event, however we have over 1200 swfs that use TextFields so want to do it on a global scope rather than having to modify each individual swf.
The idea is that on an Android tablet selecting a TextField brings up the android keyboard that not only shrinks the flash content, but defaults to the alpha keyboard when all we want is numeric (it's a Maths app).
I have Main.fla and SkinA.fla. Both have MovieClip library item: MC_BrandLogo.I'm loading the SkinA.swf into Main.swf in the current application domain trying to replace the class inside Main.swf. If there is no library item in the Main.fla, I can instantiate MC_BrandLogo with the correct graphic. If the MC_BrandLogo already exist in the Main.fla then that graphic is used even though I loaded new one in the current application domain.Is there a way to replace existing linked movie clips with loaded dynamically?
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onSkinLoaded);
var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext(false, ApplicationDomain.currentDomain);

I have a scrollPane component set up with a long form in it. When a user gets to the bottom he can submit the form, the button then navigates him away from the scrollPane. If the user comes back to the scrollPane, the content in the scrollPane is scrolled all the way to the bottom where they clicked away. How do I reset the content so if they return to the form, the top of the form is visible in the scrollPane instead of the bottom of the form?

I have a ScrollPane component to stage and I give it as source a new MovieClip instance. How can I access the movieclip inside scrollpane? This is what I have so far but it returns null:
var regForm = new RegistrationForm();
regForm.name = "rForm";
regFormSP.source = regForm;
var form = Object(regFormSP.content).getChildByName("rForm");
trace(form) // returns null
[Code]..
There is an object "instance20" as a parent to rForm...Why is that?
I have setup a flash MovieClip with a scrollpane in it, and another MovieClip that run's a FOR loop to create a list of buttons dynamically. I have the script pull the dynamic MovieClip and load it as a source to the scrollPane but the scrollbars are not appearing. To make sure that the scrollpane was working, I added an event listener to the scrollpane that when I clicked it it will run scrollPane.invalidate() and the scrollbars will pop on.
So here's my problem/question: If I'm dynamically adding a listMC to this scrollPaneMC, how do I get listMC to throw the invalidate() to the parent scrollPaneMC? Here's another way to look at it: Root adds a child scrollPaneMC. ScrollPaneMC uses listMC as a source from the library. listMC run's its FOR loop and dynamically creates a list and appears in the scrollPaneMC, but no scrollbars.

I go on to show a few different SWFs on the source movieclip. These SWFs are spaced vertically by about 80 pixels each inside the clip. The scroll dragging is working fine when you click on one of these SWFs, however, it does not scroll if you hit the vertical space in between items. Is there a way to allow the scroll drag to work no matter where inside the scrollpane (or movieclip) the user clicks? I would rather not have to fill the empty vertical spaces with some blank SWF, or make the others have a greater height.
I'm using a movieClip inside a ScrollPane to show a list of CheckBoxes. The amount of CheckBoxes shown is dynamic, it depends on a SQL query. After the query is done, I add as many CheckBoxes as rows in the result set. What I am trying to do is to access some methods I wrote in the MovieClip inside the ScrollPane to get the length of the CheckBoxes, check which ones are selected and the label they have (their label is also defined by the SQL query).
I've tried this
valueINeedToGet = Object(root).scrollPaneInstance.source.functionINeedToRun();
But it returns error #1006
How can I access the code inside the MovieClip inside the ScrollPane?
I'm a beginner actionscripter, so I hope you will take that into account when replying. The problem I am having is that a client has asked me to place a call to action button inside a textbox that scrolls. My idea was to create a movieclip containing the text and the button, then place that movieclip inside a scroll pane. I've been monkeying around with it all day and have made minimal headway. I'm not even sure of the best way to accomplish this.
If one of you learned actionscripters out there could point me in the right direction, perhaps I can find my own solution. The client wants me to use custom icons for the scrollbars, and as altering a scrollbar component seems like such a PIA, I'm trying to avoid using components.
I have two movies, home.swf and scrollpane.swf On home.swf i have an empty MC that holds scrollpane.swf.On scrollpane.swf I have a UIScrollPane component called scrollPane4 that holds a MC called "symbol 1" on this MC I have buttons that make the scrollpane scroll down ...
on (release) {
_root.scrollPane4.vPosition = 225;
}
This all works fine untill I load scrollpane.swf into home.swf, now the scroll buttons don't work.
I have an actionscript project which uses visual symbols from an SWC. I have a CheckoutButton which has the following class associated with it (compiled into the SWC in Flash CS3).
[Code]...
note: all as3 is written in CS4 and compiled for flash 10.I have a parent movie that loads a separate standalone SWF movie. This standalone movie happens to use the ScrollPane component (fl.containers.ScrollPane), and it runs correctly when launched on it's own.When I attempt to have a Parent movie load the standalone SWF, i receive a run-time error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at fl.containers::ScrollPane/drawBackground()
at fl.containers::ScrollPane/draw()
at fl.core::UIComponent/callLaterDispatcher()
I understand that this error can be avoided by adding the ScrollPane component to the Parent Movie library. My question is why is this necessary? If the component is only used in the standalone SWF being loaded by the Loader class, why does the Parent movie require the component to be in the library as well?
