ActionScript 3.0 :: Change Width Of ComboBox Instance
Jun 25, 2008
I am trying to change width of ComboBox instance. I want to change width of the original box, not the list. List width can be changed with inst.dropdownWidth=myWidth; ComboBox width can be changed by free transforming in Flash IDE, but that is not exactly ideal. There should be a code solution for this (I hope). Anyone know or know where to find out? I could not find it in the documentation strangely enough (or maybe I just missed smtg obvious).

I want to change the movieclips' width whose instance names are in an array. However I can't change this value even for one instance.
Code:
this.holder_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
_root.edges[1]._width = 24-_root.holder_mc._x;
trace(_root.edges[1]._width);
};

I am looking at the SimpleButton entirely wrong. Here's what I'm doing (inside of a MovieClip):
[Code]...
the close_btn.width and height remain 0. Am I supposed to just rely on the DisplayObject members of the SimpleButton completely and ignore width/height/x/y or what?

I am simulating a multi-column combobox by introducing spaces between each column, such that all rows for the 3 columns should appear in a single line. The gap in this implementation is that due to the varying widths of characters, this spacing technique does not work. How to set the combobox characters to have the same width? The other approach is to calculate the width occupied by characters in each column and then set the start position of the next column. How to achieve this?

In Flex 3, I've created a ComboBox within an MXML component similar to the following:
<mx:ComboBox id="comboBox" dataProvider="{_choices}" />
<mx:Script> <![CDATA[
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
// etc...
public function get choices():ArrayCollection { return _choices; }
[Code] .....
In the parent MXML application, I'm modifying the contents of the choices property:
myComponentId.choices.removeAll();
myComponentId.choices.addItem({data: "NY", label: "New York"});
myComponentId.choices.addItem({data: "CA", label: "California"});
// etc...
The binding is working in that the ComboBox is automatically picking up the new contents added at runtime, however it is not adjusting its width. The initial width of the ComboBox is wide enough only to show the initial item "All" declared in the component. However, I want and would have expected the ComboBox to re-size automatically during binding to be able to show "California", but it isn't. How can I get the ComboBox to update its width after I have added new wider labels to its dataProvider?

I've created a ComboBox skin by extending mx.skins.ProgrammaticSkin. It's working fine, except I can't figure out how to limit the width of the text. Is there a way to control this within the skin?
See the attached image for an example of the text going too far. I would like it to stop before the separator line to the left of the down arrow.

I am setting new style on a combobox instance. Following is the code.
myCombobox.textField.setStyle("textFormat", myStyle);myCombobox.dropdown.setRendererStyle("textFormat", myStyle); where myCombobox is the combobox instance and myStyle is textFormat object. but when i disable the component. i.e, myCombobox.enabled = false; The combobox textField loses its style and resets to its defualt style, though the dropdown style remains( myStyle ). What is the reasons for this behaviour. How can i change the style for the disabled state of the component.

I have tried to work on a simple form with Flash Builder 4, but was stuck in creating the dynamic addition of the instance for a textbox and combobox within a Hbox.I have created an HBox component with a textbox and a combo box. I then create a button Add new Row, to add a new row of Hbox on the runtime.
May I know how can I create the add to make it able to add new hbox component on clicking of the button, such that when i click the hbox 3 times, I should have 3 rows of the component instance and the button is still at the bottom of these components?

I would like to use a movieclip to load a flv video. The problem I have is that I want to change the video dimensions. I've tried several software to change the video dimensions but as far as it seems all of them keep the same height-width ratio than in the original video. Is there any software that would allow me to change the height and width without keeping the same height/width ratio as in the original video file?

I am currently using colorTransform to color a ComboBox:
//_cb is the combo box
setColor(_cb, t_uintBgColor); //t_uintBgColor is a hexadecimal, ie. 0xFF0000
setColor(_cb.dropdown, t_uintBgColor, -150);
[Code]....
This works, and the combo box and its drop down get tinted.....EXCEPT when t_uintBgColor is white - 0xFFFFFF. What happens then is the combo box is just its default gray color.
And what is the best solution for coloring the background of a ComboBox?

I've got this weird problem with Flash in a embed browser in an ASP.NET Windows Application. I've got this Flash Movie that runs in the Windows application and has got a couple of comboboxes. I've added an eventlistener to such a box, but his change event isn't triggerd on some computers. When I click on the combobox it opens up, but when I click on an item in the combobox it closes before he could trigger the change event.
The weird part is that this occurs on some computers, on others it works as it should. And when I load the swf directly in the browser the comboboxes work all the time. So it has something to do with the Windows Application and Flash. All the tested computers have the Flash plugin version 9 and higher (needed for my movie) installed.

I have a comboBox component with a CHANGE event listener on it:
dd_chapter.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, changeFunction);
function changeFunction(event:Event):void {
trace("changed!");
}
I want to trigger that event programmatically when the comboBox first gets loaded with data. In AS 2, the syntax would be something like "dd_chapter.onChange();". How do I do it in AS 3?

I have a prompt string to be displayed in my combobox - this needs to be displayed in italics. When user makes any selection from the list - i need to change the style of the displayed content.
My css file:
.promptStyle
{
fontStyle: italic;[code].....
I am able to see the style change happening because the color changes; but the change specific to textInputStyleName does not get applied.

I have tried changing all the styles associated with the combobox (borderColor, etc), and set borderStyle to none (which made the border go away around the dropdown menu) but I can't for the life of me get the border that's around the main part of the combobox to go away or change color. I skinned the button to get it to be red, but I just can't figure out how to change that last detail.

When I set style color, it changes both the text color for the selected item/component label and the text in the dropdown menu.
color
Type: uint Format: Color CSS Inheritance: yes
Color of text in the component, including the component label. The default value is 0x0B333C.
I would really like the label to be white and the text to be black.
