How to develop dynamic XML fed menu in tree structure. The submenus should expand and contract according to the currently clicked menu item.
View 1 RepliesIs there a way to group context menu items into a tree like structure?Like the Quality in built in menu.You can test it on any flash that has the built in items enabled.Right Click -> Quality -> Low.Can you do the same with custom items?For example:Right Click -> Custom Options -> Option 1
View 5 RepliesI noticed there was no tree component in AS3. I plan on making a tree style menu with sub menus and stuff so should I just do this project in AS2 or is their something I can make similar to a tree component in AS3?
View 7 RepliesI have read one xml file and created a tree structure now if I click on any one of its node..it should load another xml file and create a subtree under the node..
View 0 RepliesI have some kind of UIComponent grouping which may look something like this with the classes "Group" and "Element". Groups can have children and children may be elements or groups again, basically similar to a file system or the str+g group function in several graphics programs. The simplest form of a group is a group with only children which are also the most low level groups in the tree.
The display hierarchy is already existant, i try to persist it to xml.
Group
- element
- Group
- element
- Group
-element
-element
- element
- element
I want to rebuild this structure in an xml-document for persistence. I know how to build an xml document in Flex but not how to (recursively) traverse this n-tree correctly. For getting only the child nodes one could make use of the following algorithm (pseudo code). But somehow I don't understand how to create the xml from this.
walkTree(group) {
children = node.getChildren
if(children != null) {
for(int i=0; i<children.length; i++) {
if(children[i].isGroup()) {
walkTree(group[i]);
} else {
trace(child);
}}}}
I've asked this question before but had no answers... so here I go again I have a structure of objects: Top object A has as children (addChild children that is...) one or more objects B_1 to B_n. The B_n may in turn have one (1) associated object A' (Same type as top object, not displayed to begin with). When I click a B_n two things may happen:
1. If it has as associated object a A', put it on the stage (as child to B_n).
2. Otherwise it is a leaf and it does other things.
If '2' happens I want to collapse the tree, that is remove the top and all children of same type from being displayed. I thought a recursive approach should work:

I got project, an accordion menu/tree menu, that just has 2 expanding parts. Very simple looking, but needs to look exactly like the image I was given.Not knowing much code, I luckily found an old sample of a real simple tree menu, since I didn't need any expensive components or plugins, nor did I want to deal with external XML files (can't code an XML worth a damn anyhow). But this old sample had everything in the fla, and did just what I needed it to. I attached it here, Menu_Old.zip.I took that exact same setup from the sample, and exact same code to make my current menu.At first, it did work fine, but the text looked really rough (I had to use images), but it definitely looked off. Looks fine in the fla, but when viewing the swf, the images are crap, some rollover states don't even line up.Then upon further inspection, I noticed that the profile of the original sample that I also built off of was an old Flash MX file. Profile said it was flash player 6, and actionscript 1.0. I'm guessing maybe player 6 just had crap antialiasing?Using flash CS3 (but saving these as flash 8), I was able to change the profile on the sample menu to flash 9 (& even actionscript 2.0) and it still works and looks fine, even after saving with the new profile.However, with my new menu that uses all that same code, when I use anything higher than flash player 6, my text look perfect again, but I lose all functionality!This doesn't make sense! And the guy needs this menu like yesterday! The way the text/images look in flash player 6 mode in unacceptable.
I am using flash cs3 and cs4 (same results on both).I put this post in this section because the code and original file are flash 8 or older stuff, plus in cs3, I did save these as flash 8 files.I both modified the original sample fla itself to the new menu to see if that might fix the problem, but it didn't.Nor did starting it over from scratch, despite again using the same old code.My new menu just isn't expanding, other than when profile is player 6 where it looks awful.You can see for yourself, if you change the current menu profile from player 6 to anything newer, the text looks great, but it will likely lose functionality like it does for me. Do the same with the old sample menu, you can even use the player 10 profile in cs4 and it still works.
I seem to run into compile issues in Flash Builder when I import 3rd-party libraries at the wrong level in the directory structure. For example, sometimes I'll import a library one level too deep into its directory tree, and the package explorer ends up excluding the prefix root-level package, usually "com." or "net.". Even though the content of the source itself doesn't change, this will cause compile errors.
Thus: Is it a 1) convention or 2) language requirement that a class's package structure (e.g., "foo.bar.Class") must match its path location (e.g., foo/bar/Class.as)?
If it's a language requirement, why is it a requirement? Wouldn't that overdetermine the package structure, since it is already specified in the source code and quite happily consuming the first three to eight columns of each line? If it's not a language requirement, are my compile errors just a result of Flash Builder enforcing the convention?
I'm creating an animated (in and out) drop down menu. I've managed to get the menu to open when the user mouses over, with the buttons all selectable. However I can't seem to find an efficient method of making the drop down menu close whenever the mouse is not over the menu. Actions:

I have a bunch of menu windows that I've placed on separate frames (for example main menu is on frame 1, options menu on frame 2, chapters menu on frame 3, characters menu on frame 4, etc). On each menu there are a bunch of text links (movieclip instances), when clicked goes to another menu page. Some of these same links (same instance) are duplicated on multiple pages since they perform the same function. For example clicking the "backToMain" instance will go back to frame 1, which is main menu, regardless of which page it was clicked on.
Does anyone have an idea how I might build this? So far I've tried to add listeners to every single link, however since lots of links are on different frames other than frame 1, I can't add listeners to them until I tell actionscript to flip to that frame, which I don't want to do. I want to globally add listeners to all links all at once in the beginning:

View 0 RepliesI'm in the middle of creating a tree menu that needs to expand/collapse when items are selected. I'm drawing all my info from a DB via sendAndLoad. I'm having alot of problems getting the "math" right for the menu tho. If you look at the attached movies (play main.swf, which loads 1.swf) and click on Villas, you'll see what I mean. I need to have each of these items expand/collapse when they are clicked on. There will never be more then one layer under each main country, so it only has to do the expand/collapse when clicking a country.

I am trying to develop a menu tree that has these basic functions:
1. No heavy graphics - basically the information is more textbased.
2. The menu tree works within two tabs.
3. The menu tree using rollovers.
a. The rollovers display a graphic image or text in a "TV" box, display, underneath the actual menu tree.
"Master Swap Action" - there is also a horizontal tab selection available. The master display, largest display area, is changed based on the "Master Swap Action". Also, the menu tree is swapped out. The two areas that are swapped out correspondent to the tab's that were selected. Here is a small sample of how we control the Menu currently. It uses a language called iMint.

I'm making an application that uses a branching tree type structure, and need to get the buttons to refer to and be able to manipulate individual XML nodes. I tried putting a button reference directly in the XML and setting the reference to that node with the event data, but it didn't work, because the XML didn't recognize the event.currentTarget as an actual button, so couldn't find the node that contained the click target. I assume there is a standard way to do this, since it's so common. Just for clarity, the tree will basically look like this:
PrimaryNode1
Subnode1
Subnode1a
[code]....
I need to be able to keep track of which subnode goes where for determining other data as well as graphically positioning the node and subnode data); PrimaryNode2 etc., with add and expand buttons. I can't set static references, since all of the nodes are added through the program depending on if they're needed. I tried doing this with multidimensional arrays, but since I want each level to be theoretically (but not practically) infinite with infinite subnodes, checking through the arrays got kind of messy. I just figured there has to be a standard way to set this up, since it's so common.
