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?

recentMsg_bt.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK,resentMsgClick);
var sp:ScrollPane = new ScrollPane();[code].......
Everything works just fine, except for the last msg gets only half displayed as if the scrollpane wouldn't scroll to the end.
I 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..
Can somebody share an example on how to set the backgroundcolor of a datagridcolumn (dynamically)?
View 3 RepliesI've already tried a lot, but there was no way I could change the color of my textInput. Adobe Livedocs couldn't help me and there was no working piece of code I could find in other messageboards.
These things haven't work for me:
myTextInput.setStyle("backgroundColor", 0xFFF00);
--
myTextInput.setstyle("backgroundColor", Number(0xFFF00));
--
myTextInput.setstyle("backgroundColor", "#FFF00");
Do I have to do something about the border of the textInput. Or about the "background"-Property (if it still exists for AS3)??
That's really all I want to do. Why is something like this so complicated? When you go into Component edit mode, you can easily change the highlight colors. Then why make it impossible to change the actual ground color? Why should I have to scour the internet to find complex code just to change the color? Sorry, it's just frustrating.Anyway, if setStyle("backgroundColor", 0xCCCCCC); ... was all I needed to do that would be fine, but that doesn't work.Even if it's not possible, I would accept text rollOverColor, or hover... nothing.I think there should be a drop down color box in the component editing window at the very lest.

View 1 RepliesI searched and didn't find quite the right solution. Please bare with me as I am a complete infant with this.Using a component listbox in CS4. I have figured out how to call in formatting to the text by using this:Code: Select allimport fl.managers.StyleManager; var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); at the head, and referring to it below, with:
Code: Select alltf.font = "Arial";
tf.size = 10;
tf.bold = false;

I dont know how to change the backgroundcolor of the stage.
Shouldnt:
_root.backgroundColor = "0x00ff00";
..normally do the trick?
Just realized I don't know how to change the backgroundcolor of the stage.
View 1 RepliesI have a textinput component that needs to have a transparent background. I've tried adjusting the alpha to 0% and 25%, the former doesn't display the contents (white font bold sans-serif) and the latter leaves a shaded background. I've also tried the following:
var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat; tf.color=0xFFFFFF; tf.font="Sans-serif"; tf.size=12; tf.bold=true; txtlowtemp.setStyle("textFormat",tf); txtlowtemp.backgroundColor=undefined; txthitemp.setStyle("textFormat",tf);

However, this gives error 1119 access to possibly undefined property backgroundColor.
How can I create a truly transparent background for these components?
I have a textfield on stage and on RollOver I want to get it's background color?
my code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("holderSub_mc",mydepth+21029);
this.holderSub_mc.createEmptyMovieClip(["sub1a_mc"], mydepth+15);

i can set the stage's background color, etc., using a SWF metadata tag:
[SWF(width="1024", height="600", frameRate="60", backgroundColor="#000000")]
or if i'm using Flash Professional, i can simply set these properties for the document in the UI.
while the Stage class offers the ability to set a frameRate and override width and height thru properties in actionscript, why is it not possible to set the background color of the stage the same way?
Stage doesn't have a property (public or otherwise) for background color. can anyone explain why that is? it seems strange to me but i'm assuming there is a good reason rather than this simply being a oversight.
Im trying to change the background color on my textarea from an external css.I can change the color of the buttons so the style sheet is working. But I cant seem to ad the class into the text area.[code]...

View 1 RepliesI'm making a form and i want to set a backgroundColor for the textfields onSetFocus and that the backgroundColors dissapear again onKillFocus. So far I have this code
[Code]...
I have a simple application which uses a RichTextEditor with a colored background, like so:
[code]...
This works fine when I compile against Flex 3.5.0, but in Flex 4.0 and 4.5, the background color remains white. I've tried setting it before the text, after the text, before and after it is added to the stage - even every single frame with an EnterFrame handler. Nothing - it just stays white.
Has anyone else encountered this and does anyone have a workaround? I don't really want to switch to a Spark component if I can help it, and I can't downgrade the whole application to 3.5.
Folx; Does the manual document the setting of transparency in TextField.textColor or TextField.backgroundColor, not just the _alpha of the TextField altogether? If so, I cant seem to find it. In addition to the RGB/hex values, the color palette in the Properties panel allows you to set transparency in %, yes, but can this also be achieved programmatically?
View 1 RepliesI would like to change backgroundColor of an drawn object(square) by mouseover. I acutally found the function for mouseover in action scripts but BackgroundColor("#ccc") does not work.
View 3 RepliesI googled this online, and almost all of them start with dragging the scrollpane from the component toolbar.
I don't like the way this scrollpane looks. How to change the color, shapes, etc. Can I do this through altering the code, or do I need to start from scratch?
I know that you can access the scrollpane's content by writing: scrollPane.content...But how can I access the scroller - with that I mean the thumb and up & down arrows...I would like to do something like this for example:
Code:
scrollPane.scroller.buttonMode = true;
for (i=0; i<policy.length; i++) {
newOpt = Stocklist_MC.attachMovie('Option', 'Option'+i, i);
I've got a ScrollPane on the root stage. This loads a MC called 'Stocklist_MC' (this also has a linkage/export name of 'Stocklist_MC'). When I try to use '.attachMovie' to the movieclip (Stocklist_MC) inside the ScrollPane nothing appears. All the AS is on frame 1 of root. Everything works when I use '.attachMovie' with _root. for (i=0; i<policy.length; i++) { newOpt = _root.attachMovie('Option', 'Option'+i, i); Also, if I drag Stocklist_MC to the stage I get everything working but list gets cut off at bottom, which is the reason why I need it in a scrollPane.
i am using ScrollPane to load some swf. I zoom content and use "scrollDrag = true and false ". But if i use scrollDrag = true, and than scrollDrag = false and in the content was some movie clips, that have some AS on it(maybe onPress) it will be DISABLED! every script is disabled on the MC-s what was in the content of the Scrollpane.
View 3 RepliesI have a swf that is loading another swf into a ScrollPane. The swf being loaded is large...around 4mb. My problem is that sometimes it loads fine, sometimes it loads without the scrollbar, and sometimes you need to refresh the page before it loads fully and correctly. My question: How can I easily test that it has fully loaded and that the scroll bars are displaying? I've tried various scenarios with ProgressBars, etc., but even when 100% loaded, the scroll bars do not consistently load.
View 1 RepliesI have a SWF file, with it's own buttons and events etc. that I am trying to load into a scrollpane in a parent application, and have it be scale-able (i.e. zoom in and out).It doesn't need to animate zoom, click to new scale is ok for now.[code]Everything seems to work except the scale statements at the end, they generate a compiler error:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at InspectorShell()
