Why I have to press 2 times the arrow key down to get a navigation through the list items in a list component of Flash?
Theres any workaround for this? I have a listener for keyboard event that checks if keyCode is equal to 40 if it is then I use 'stage.focus = list', but I have to press 2 times key arrow down to start navigating through list items.
I've got a movieclip called "rotatorProxy" that spans the entire timeline. I've got nav buttons that jump to various frames on that timeline. I need to get the display depth of rotatorProxy each time the nav buttons move the playhead. The AS3 code is easy enough:
var zIndex:int = this.getChildIndex(getChildByName("rotatorProxy")) ;
my problem is where to put it. If I put this code in any script that executes in the target frame, it works, but only if I hit the nav buttons slowly. If I bang on a single nav button rapidly, getChildByName("rotatorProxy") can return null. I don't know much about how the display list works but I assume the display list is rebuilt after every jump and the frame scripts are executing asynchronously, so it's possible my getChildByName call is executed before the display list is complete. Is there an event or some other handle that would allow me to call my code before the frame is rendered but after the display list is complete?
I need to create a navigation scheme with a dynamic list of movieclips that cycles, the user being able to cycle through the list left or right seamlessly.For example, say there are 12 items in the list, and at any given time three of them are to be displayed, with the center one being the focus/selected item. If the user clicks on the center/focus item, it takes them to a page, no trouble. If they click on the one to the left of the focus item, the list slides right, with the clicked one becoming the new center, focus item.
So, now say that the three visible items are 10, 11, and 12 in our array. If the user clicks on number 12, the list will slide left, with number 12 becoming the focus, and the goal would be to have item number 1 become the new, right-most item in the display - thus, the visible three would be 11, 12, 1. If the user then clicked on one, the cycle would continue, making number 1 the focus and the visible items would be 12, 1, 2. This should work seamlessly at both extremes of the list.
So in one instance, I have created a single movieclip that contains all of the items in the list, plus four extra at the end, to allow the appearance of seamlessness; when the user got to the end, the entire clip jumped to the start. This works, more or less, but it's clunky and I need to find a better way.
I'm using flex 4.1 to write an application. i read in the documents that has the rowCount property to set how many items to display. the does not have that property. how can I limit the list to display 3 items ?
View 3 RepliesI am working on an older Flash project created in CS3 ActionScript 2.0 How can I make the pointer cursor change to the hand when hover over a list item?_root.slidePanel.myList'myList' is the list. I have traced out the contents of the List MC and it has a child MC called 'content_mc'. I assumed this was the object containing all of my list items but the only members of this MC I can see (when tracing them out) are 'setRGB' and 'searchKey'.

The 'recommendations' dataProvider is an ArrayCollection of String, which are generally sentences about as long as this one. By setting the variableRowHeight and wordWrap properties as shown, if a sentence is too long to fit on a single line, everything works fine- the row expands and the messages show on two lines, or occasionally three.
The space allocated for this panel within the entire canvas means if the total text size of 'recommendations' exceeds six lines, I need for the entire list scroll. This is also working just fine. The trouble is when using the mouse wheel to do the scrolling- Flex scrolls both the entire list and the single item where the mouse is hovering. Often this results in only the second half of a sentence being visible. Non-programmer friends I have asked to look at this noticed this, and tell me it as a problem. If a user does not notice the dual scrolling, and sees only a fragment of a sentence, it will be perceived as an error in the application.

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.

View 1 RepliesThe traditional way to assign an icon would be to use the icon field of the item renderer,which reads the value of "icon" property in your data, for example:
listData.addItem({label: "Logout", icon: "com.classpth.DefualtThemeLogoutIconClass"});
But i want the DefualtThemeLogoutIconClass to changed to another class: ightThemeLogoutIconClass when the theme is changed.The only way to do this would be to use a style declaration containing a classReference to the icon, and change its the value in each of the CSS files of the various themes.The question is, is there any way to assign this style to an icon in a List, something as easy as intuitive as list[0].getIcon().setStyle("styleName");
I have two Lists (components) on stage. The first one (mainList populates from an XML called topics.xml
[Code]...
on event handler change, I want to load the second list on the other list component, called subList..It's not loading.. I believe it's because when it reads the data from my topics list, it reads topic1.xml instead of "topic1.xml" ( reads without the quotes). If I unquote line v.list.load("subtopic.xml"), it works, but I need it to be loaded from the XML..

I'm creating a sort of search/sort thing using XML and List Boxes. It's three list boxes, when a selection in the first is chosen, it populates the second box based on the choice, and then when a choice is made in the 2nd box it populates the third based on that choiceThe choices are being pulled from an XML doc.I'm so close to having it working. I can get the first to populate the 2nd but not the 2nd to 3rd. I know it's just something with the syntax, how I'm referencing the node I need and how I'm using the listener. It's all running together in my head at this point. This is in Flash 8.Here's my AS:
Code:
var RootNode:XMLNode;
var selectedCategory:String; // formerly selectedGallery
