Not sure if you guys remember flash paper or not, but basically I am trying to clone it in AS3. The layout anyway, not the actual conversion. I have my PDF pages and SWF format and I have them loading into a tile list. I want to get the Y value of each item in the tile list so I can make a page browser.

I'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 am using a tile list component and an areatext component. When I click on the graphic in the list a description of the graphic comes up in the text area. No problems so far. However I want to view a large image of the graphic at the same time as the text. I will attach one graphic so you can see how they show up. I will attach the .swf file also. You can see in the middle of the two areas (where the green square is) this is where I want the larger graphic to appear.
Here is the script
majorworksthumb_tl.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, majorworksthumbClicked)
function majorworksthumbClicked(event:Event):void {
majorwork_ta.text = event.target.selectedItem.data;
majorworks_mc.MovieClip = event.target.selectedItem.MovieClip;}

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. The button appears in the right spot on the list item but it doesn't function like a button. It's like the contents of the buttons first frame is added to the CellRenderer and nothing else.

I'm trying to load a bunch of external swfs into a tile list. Once the swfs have been loaded I'm adding them to a dataprovider which I then sort and add to the tilelist. Like so:
dp.addItem({label:e.currentTarget.content.getLabel(), path:e.currentTarget.content.getPath(), source:e.currentTarget.content, cost:e.currentTarget.content.getCost(), category:e.currentTarget.content.getCategory()});
It works fine except that the way I'm doing it I have to add a bunch of functions to each swf to know which one is loaded and pass the correct info to the dataprovider.Is there another way to tell which swf has been loaded? Something like this.URLRequest. If I could tell something about it I could compare that to my original xml and find out all the other information I need for my dataprovider.
I am using a horizontal tilelist in flex to display an image gallery with only one item in horiz. tilelist being shown at a time. I have next and previous buttons on both sides. The problem is I want to display a particular item/image in that list when user clicks on a thumb image from another thumbimages tilelist at bottom. I used someTilelist.selectedIndex property but it just selects that particular index in list, it does not show that particular item/image. I want the list to show that particular image, not just select it. Please take note that the horiz. tilelist shows only one image at time.

I'm making a game where you place tiles on a grid. When placing a tile, I need to check the existance of another tile to the left, right, or above and below, otherwise the tile should not be placed.. Here is a function I thought would work, that accepts one variable (the position of the tile just as it is about to be placed) :-
private function checkSurroundingTiles(gridPosition:uint) { var t1 = gridPosition - 12; var t2 = gridPosition - 1; var t3 = gridPosition + 1; var t4 = gridPosition + 12; for(i = 0; i < gridRefArray.length; i++) { var checkTile = gridRefArray[i]; if(checkTile == t1) { return true;

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.
