I'm trying to create a combobox inside a package and add it to the stage later on. However, I'm getting the following error when I try to click on the combobox: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. Here is the package for the combobox:

I need to programmatically set the selected item in a combobox. I've got a combobox like this:
<mx:ComboBox id="MyComboBox" change="puzzleHandler(event);"prompt="Make a Selection">
<mx:ArrayCollection id="myDP">
<mx:Object id="first" label="Label 1" series="2" pageTitle="Title 1"/>
<mx:Object id="second" label="Label 2" series="7" pageTitle="Title 2"/>
<mx:Object id="third" label="Label 3" series="9" pageTitle="Title 3"/>
</mx:ArrayCollection></mx:ComboBox>
I've got a function that regards deep linking. [URL]. They'll be taken to the appropriate part of the site (without having selected Label 2 in the comboBox). How do I set the comboBox programatically, so that it corresponds with what the user it looking at? In my function's switch statement, I want to set the comboBox to the label that corresponds with the view. If "view=2" then the comboBox should show "Label 2" as selected.
case "view=1":
MyComboBox.selectedItem.label="Label 1";
parseUrl();
case "view=2":

I tried this: MyComboBox.selectedItem.label="Label 1" But it's not working.
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 know this should be do-able, but i am stumped... I created a row of movie clip buttons + eventListeners (CLICK) with a for-loop. i now want to take an array that consists of a list of swfs (i.e., var myArray:Array=new Array(); myArray=["thing.swf","dog.swf",more.swf",etc}--and programmatically assign a loader + URL request to each of the created movie clip buttons that will load the swfs on the button click.

Anybody able to see what's causing the error?
I am trying to display the value of a combobox in a dynamic text output. It works on the first keyframe using myCombobox.value, but moving to the next keyframe using gotoAndStop(2) and trying to do the same thing
myTextField.text = String(myOtherCombobox.value);
I get the error
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
I am trying to populate a combobox component with XML, but getting an error when publishing which is "accessof unknown property comboXML".The AS3 code looks like this.

I am kind of puzzled and not sure how to tackle this issue: Got two comboxes with dataproviders. Also, I created a separate index.as in /as folder. I have these two functions:
In my .mxml page, I have :

<mx:ComboBox id="propertyCode" width="50%" dataProvider="{qry_communites}" change="showPropertyCode()" />
</mx:FormItem>
<mx:FormItem label="Utility Type:" id="fi_utilityType" width="100%">

I get an error saying
Access of undefined property utilityType.
The funny thing is I don't get this error for "propertyCode". Moreover, If I copy pasyte showUtilityType() function and put inside my .mxml page, I don't get this error either. Btw. I have :

In my .mxml page. What should I do? How can I get rid of this error? Why does Flex see propertyCode combobox but not utilityType combobox? I would rather keep index.as as it is.
I have a combobox named myComboBox on the stage. My library has pngs with linkages ClownFish, FishWithStar,etc. What I hope to achieve is that when a item is selected in the combobox, my png will show at the stage. but gave me the error:

i am working on a project that has separate swf files serving as different sections (students, faculty, etc). for each section, on the first frame i have a combobox that lists the different values within that particular section. when a user clicks on the value, it takes them to the specific frame within that swf. there are two problems:
1. when the user selects a value, everything functions correctly but an error is thrown that says:

I'm having a bit of a problem with a weapon class I created for a 2d game I'm making. An instance of the weapon class is created in my player class, whenever a user clicks the mouse button I create a bullet on the stage (bullet is also another class) and pass it to the weapon class. Below is the weapon class so far with the bullet functions.
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
import classes.Avatar;
import classes.Weapon;
import classes.Bullet;
private var aBullets:Array = new Array();
[Code] .....
The problem is I keep getting this error:
TypeError: Error #1006: splice is not a function.

Am I forgetting to import some file for the splice?
I'm using Flash CS3 and want to create a custom ComboBox. I've followed the steps outlined in "Editing component skins in a new document" (http:/[url]...), but every time I get to the step where I drag the ComboBox Assets folder from the HaloTheme.fla library into my library, if I test movie at that point my combobox has become an unclickable white rectangle with no label, button or anything.
View 2 RepliesI'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.
How can I validate there's a selected item in a ComboBox before saving? If there's no selected item, how can I set focus on the ComboBox?

Both of my ComboBoxes has the same identifier.I could not change the identifier through the properties tab because it is greyed out.
I have only one question but phrased it 3 ways:
1) Is it better to pre=render things say in photoshop or have flash render them?
2) if I have a field of stars that drift along; is it better to create that Star Field in photoshop as a single picture (say a .png) or to create a star in my library and add it to a movie clip and then have that drift along?
Lets say I have a blur effect on my stars and have an equivalent on the photoshop.
3) I have heard (and experienced) adding effects like blur takes a fair amount of CPU and memory so was wondering if I created the effect in photoshop and then imported the 'blurred' object into my flash if I could cut down on system resources?
When an instance variable is constructed by a constructor method, why do you need to refer to the current instance variable being created when its the only one being created? I understand assigning an expression to it but why name it "this." when it is the only object that the constructor is building? Does it have some hing to do with being able to naming that object in the Local Variable? In other words am I creating a generic object that will be named in another class?

The stand-alone Flash player has an option to print a SWF. However, there is no shell action registered for this, and as far as I can see the only way to do it is to use a keyboard macro (or do something invasive such as inject a DLL in the player). Is there some official API for this?
View 1 RepliesI was wondering how I could programmatically create a swf using Flash AS3 and AIR? I have successfully recreated a swf (using the data found in a swf file converted to hex and using byteArray) but I can't seem to change anything to it; if I do it no longer works.I have some text fields a person can enter information into. I want to take that information and save it out to a swf file.[code]
