Does anyone have any good references to point me towards in regards to creating space between custom tagged items in XML other than the <p> tag? I created some other tagging in CSS such as <paraPop></paraPop> and I tried creating custom tags for spacing alone, but it doesn't work in CS3 like it has in the past with AS2. Example of spaced tagging used in XML that worked previously: [code]
View 1 RepliesI'm using an external CSS to format a textField that has some HTML text in it, let's say something similar to this:
myTextField.htmlText = "<p>paragraph one</p><p>paragraph two</p>";
How can I control the spacing between paragraphs when there is no support for margin-top or margin-bottom? I don't want to add empty <p> or <br /> elements to my text since they don't allow exact control and insert too much space.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to make a custom event that bubbles up from the Items object in this code to the Main object, and start the changeInfoHandler there. For some reason, it works when I put the dispatchEvent in the Items object inside a handler for a mouse click, but when I try to bypass that and call the function directly, it seems to only work in the scope of the Items object.

I am trying to create a combobox where the items listed in the combobox are font names and each item will display using the font of the item label. For instance, one item label in the list is "New Times Roman" and I want that particular row in the combobox to have the text AND font of "New Times Roman". For some reason, inside of my custom CellRenderer class, I cannot seem to find a way to get the item label that corresponds to the CellRenderer and the CellRenderer.data item always appears to be null!
This is the code I am currently using:
//From the main class, I am creating an instance of the
CustomizableComboBox and adding in the font names I am interested
in.

Is there a way to control the vertical space between two HTML paragraphs, in an AS3 TextField?
I understand and have successfully applied CSS styles via AS3 and have also utilized the TextFormat class.
I am still unable to control the vertical space between a closing and an opening <p> tag: txt.htmlText = "<p>First paragraph here.</p><p>Second paragraph here.</p>"; The example above renders with the correct font and letter-spacing, but the space between paragraphs is either two-times too tall if txt.condenseWhite = false or it is too condensed if txt.condenseWhite = true.
Since only margin-left and margin-right are available CSS attributes in AS3, and not margin-top or margin-bottom, I am at a loss.
I'm trying to set a specific list item in a mx combobox to have a custom item renderer, the problem is that I cannot do this via mxml, it needs to be done via actionscript at a later stage, eg: combobox gets created, combobox gets populated, user does other tasks, combobox needs to set one or more items in the combobox to have icons (via item renderer)..
I can do this via the onChange event, but it only applies the icon when the combobox is opened and there is a slight delay so you can see the icon being added.

I have tried already with toggling visibility and 'gotoAndStop()' to make items appear over other items when the corresponding button is pressed, for example, when the user tries out different pants/shirts on their character.
I would like to use the selectionMode=multiple described in the Flex docs, but with a few modifications:
1) I would like the box that the user drags over the graph to remain there until the user drags a new one.
2) In the top right corner of the box I want to display the sum of the items selected by that box.

View 2 RepliesI'm creating a facebook application in flex. I'm actually working on the friends component that shows your friends who are using the application. now, each friend has a profile image.
I created the component using a s:List element.
In the Skin Class of the element i configured the requestedColumnCount to 3, which means it shows 3 friends. i added buttons to scroll left and right in the list.
Whenever I scroll to see a different friend, for a half of a second i see no image because the List component is loading the image in order to view it.
is there a way to make the list preload all the elements so i won't have this kind of problem ?

View 2 Replieshow to get my CollectionEvent to work, and I seem to be able to see the problem, but I am not sure how to get it to work properly.
In my actionscript, it seems to only tell that event.items.length is 1, while I am calling my array collection from the HTTPService, and I have tested the length of my Array Collection, which seems to be accurate. What I tried to do is to use that number in the CollectionEvent function, but that does not work at all.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to figure out a way to center dynamic text fields vertically after the text has been input. For instance, in some instances I would have a dynamic field with two lines, and I would want to center it between two other dynamic fields- but only after the text has been populated. Maybe a better way of explaining it would be changing the spacing of elements on a page so they're always equidistant from one another.
