Using FB4, I want to change the height of an open spark DropDownList. By default, it shows up to 6 items before scrolling. My dropdownlist contains 7 items, so I want to change the height of the open dropdown list to fit all 7 items without scrolling. As a workaround, I've changed the font size of the items so that they are smaller and all 7 fit, but the smaller font doesn't look good. Is there a way to change this height?
I want a dropdownlist that is wide enough to accommodate the larger item in the dropdown in display area of the main control.(.i.e. dropdownlist with the functionality of MX Combobox)
I have an AIR application with 2-3 DropDownLists and a bunch of other controls. The DropDownLists are bound to dataproviders (ArrayCollections) in a central Model singleton. On launch, they all work fine.
However, when I click a button to add new objects to an object in another ArrayCollection in the same Model, the DropDownLists get weird. They still register clicks, and all other controls still work as before, but the dropdowns won't open. Clicking/waiting enough usually opens the dropdown, but if I don't make another selection it still won't open after closing. Making a different selection makes that DropDownList work again, but the others might still refuse to open.
If I open the dropdowns using Ctrl + Down arrow, they work all the time, so it's only the click that doesn't trigger the open correctly. I can work around the problem by calling openDropDown() on the dropdown when clicked, but that doesn't feel right.
I'm using the 4.1 SDK, and the dropdowns are s:DropDownLists. I tried using mx:ComboBoxes instead, but got the same behavior. Edit: Weirdly enough, using s:ComboBoxes they work as they should, but I really don't want to use them since they seemingly can't be made non-editable.
<!-- fill --> <!--- Defines the appearance of drop-down list's background fill. --> <s:Rect id="background" left="1" right="1" top="1" bottom="1" > <s:fill>

If you look closely you'll see that I've changed the default value for the bgFill color. However, when I run my application, the background color for the dropdownlist is still the default white.
I would like to have that the height of a canvas change automatically. When there are a lot of labels and images in my canvas, the height must increase. And when there are just a few labels in the canvas, the height must decrease.
Is it possible to dynamically (not in the project's options) change the dimensions of the stage by using ActionScript 3? I'd want to create a 400x300px loader, but I also want it to load animations that have bigger or smaller dimensions. I would then change the width and height of the loader to make the loaded animations fit well. Is there any way to do that?
I have objects placed on the screen using x/y coordinates. I want a way to update that based on changes in Screen Width/Height. So if used re-sized browser window x/y should change. How do I cick off a function every time the screen is re-sized.
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 want that the s:VGroup container has the height only of its visible children. In this example there is a free space even the visibility mx:HorizontalList is set to false. Every time I change the visibility of the child element I want that the parent (s:VGroup) will change his height. How to do this in flex?
I have code like the following: <s:VGroup gap="10" id="group" height="100%"> <s:Label text="This is page 2" /> <s:Button content="Resize Canvas" click="resize(event);"/> <mx:Canvas id="photoCanvas" color="#567898" backgroundColor="#125567"> </mx:Canvas> </s:VGroup>
I don't understand why the following does not work: Pushing the Button resizes the photoCanvas's height (gets taller or smaller). Since the photoCanvas control is a child element of the VGroup shouldn't the container update itself to the new height? The Vgroup has ALWAYS the same height, no matter what the (total) height of the children is! I would like the VGroup to adjust itself and get a height value equal to the sum of its children heights. Is this not possible??
I'm creating a log-in box for my Flex application. However, I'm required to apply a specific design to this box that I have to change the title bar height.
The component I'm using is spark.components.Panel. I just can't find the property of this 'Panel' component to change the feature.
Is there a nice and not much processor consuming way to move all TitleWindow instances within the application visible area when the application been scaled - change it's width or height ?
In a dropdown how to get icons along with text and once we select any of the index from the dropdown i want that icon also be selected and to be displayed on that dropdown header
I'm having difficulty figuring out how to add a dropdownlist control to only a single row of a data grid. For example, if I have two rows of data in the grid, I want the top to be the normal text from the data provider, and the second row to be a dropdownlist (bound to an array collection).
I'm sure this is a easy one but I've been searching for a while how to select a DropDownList element with actionscript. In this scenario, I'd like to be able to specify the selectedItem based either on ddlLabel or ddlData
so when I enter this state I take makes from database and populate them to dropdownlist.
but I have also button and on click event I'm changing state to this Form and I want to select specific make from the dropdownlist but I can't. I'm not sure whether I'm doing sth wrong or the problem is that I'm selecting item just before the dropdownlist became populated.
e.x. List of make consist of Audi and BMW and when I click button I want to open this state Form in which this dropdownlist exist with selected value e.x. BMW.
I have created a custom ComboCheck which extends the spark DropDownList that is a DropDownList of checkboxes. Inside of my itemRenderer I have the code:
[Bindable]override public function set data (value:Object):void { if (value!=null) { _data = value;
[Code].....
This will also not cause the dropdownlist to reset to scrollPosition 0
I want to adjust the width of DropDownList control in flex 4. I could do it by editing the skinclass and setting the PopupAnchor's Property "popUpWidthMatchesAnchorWidth" to false, but in my application I have to do it using actionscript.
Let's say I have a DropDownList with the 50 states in it. I would like to type in the letters "C + O + L" to jump to Colorado, like Firefox and most application do. Right now, it's jumping from California to Ohio to end with Louisiana.
I am trying to make a simple change on look of Flex 4.5 Spark DropDownLis trough extending it's item renderer, anyway even a just shiny new item renderer bring me as result a items which labels is blanks. If i remove the renderer everything is fine, but with it - the items is blank white.
I have just implemented a dropdownlist of checkboxes taken from this ComboCheck example but made it extend DropDownList instead of ComboBox to provide better functionality that I required. I am attempting to create a DropDownList where some items are bold and non-checkboxes (or can be checkboxes) and others are not.
I have not been able to find anything online about doing this yet and have been trying to figure it out. I am currently using an ArrayCollection as a dataProvider but I think this could possibly be my issue and I should be trying to setup the labels in flex not AS3.[code]...
I'm fetching some data from a PHP application using Zend AMF. However I can't get the data to bind to a simple DropDownList control. The PHP method is:
In this code I'm creating a new window when I click the button. In the new window are TextInput and DropDownList components. When the new window opens, clicking the DropDownList does nothing - you have to click it a second time round to get it to open. However, click into the TextInput field first and then try opening the DropDownList works no problem.
I'm trying to use the Spark DropDownList as itemEditor in an AdvancedDataGrid. Howerver, I've stumbled onto two issues:Clicking on a item in the DropDownList changes the selected row in the ADG. You can see this behavior by compiling the code from below and executing the following steps.The value changes from "A" to "C" and Row 3 is the selected row in the ADG. It looks like the mouse click in the DropDownList is also handled by the ADG itself which changes the selected row accordingly. I couldn't figure out a way to prevent this. The expected behavior would be that row 1 is still selected after the DropDownList has been closed.Clicking on the scrollbar of the DropDownList closes the DropDownList. (I just found the solution to this problem in the relatated questions while writing this: Scrollbars in dropdownlist inside DataGrid itemEditor not working)
I am using FlashBuilder 4.5 for PHP. I have a simple MySQL table with the fields {tID, tName}.I am able to populate a DropDownList in a Flex form as below. The DropDownList shows the name of the people without problem:
