I simply want to generate a list of the items in my library. (Then i want to read an external file and format the text in as3. All this bec I'm too lazy to learn CSS.)
View 2 Repliesmy mission is to select an item in a DataGrid instance with nothing but the coordinates on screen.
We are implementing right-click functionality in our Flash application, with the goal of being able to right-click a DG row, which would select that row plus show a popup window containing some context commands.
I have managed to get the right click event into my Flex app with the help of this site.
Further progress so far has been to obtain the DataGrid instance via
var objects : Array = this.getObjectsUnderPoint(new Point(this.mouseX, this.mouseY));
and then to investige each of the array's items, for one of those 'parent.parentList' refers to the DataGrid instance.
I couldn't find any point-to-item converter function or anything.
PS: Using the standard Flash ContextMenu is, unfortunately, not an option.
Is there a way (a method) to obtain the location of an item no matter where it is. Maybe something that looks for an item finds it's path and puts that path at to a _global

View 1 RepliesI'm creating a mobile app in which I need to show a calendar with months at the top. The months are part of a component that extends from SkinnableDataContainer (and has some custom scrolling/behaviour - which is why I did'nt use a spark list). I need the months to be shown as a 'trapezium' shaped tab and so I'm using a png image as a mask in the item renderer for the component.
When the mask is not applied, it all works well - the months render, the list/data container selection works when I click on a month and so on.When the mask is applied, it renders well, scrolling and everything else seems to work well - but when I click on a month, nothing happens visually. And from the trace statements in my code, it appears list item selection is not changing. Looks like mouse clicks are not working.
Code:
public class TopCalendarMonthRenderer extends LabelItemRenderer {
[Embed(source="/assets/trapezium_alpha.png")]
private static var TrapeziumMask:Class;
private static var trapeziumMaskInstance:BitmapAsset;

I want to add a SimpleButton to a list item in a list component. I am getting the CellRenderer for the list item I want and using the addChild method to add the simple button.

I'm looking for a way to disable a specific item within a List component. I had thought there would be something along the lines of myList.listItems[3].enabled = false like you find in many other GUI type languages, but I can find no documentation of this in Flash AS3. What confuses me is that there is Disabled_skin and Selected_disabled in the Cell Renderer skins, so obviously it's something that has been catered for - unless I've misunderstood the use.

I have an AS file which contains all of the code for a main menu. This code loads another AS file which initializes code for the general items that will be on the stage throughout the whole flash. But when I initialize the code for one of the menu items after it's clicked I don't know how to get 2 of the items from the stage elements code to be on top of the display list. Because, as the code for the menu item loads the two stage elements are going to cover the items from that code and after its loaded its going to open up and show them the items that are loaded from the menu item code.
