I have a problem to determinate if my combobox is open or not. I've seen the same topic but that solution : if(combobox.dropdown != null && combobx.dropdown.visible) doesn't work for me. It is always true. I can't find any component who is responsible for this such a simple operation.
View 1 RepliesI have an swf with a comboBox with three simple values. When I bring up the swf by itself it works fine. When I try to bring up the swf by loading it from another swf, I get a TypeError: Error 1009 "Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference, when I try to open its dropdown. If I add a ComboBox to the parent SWF's library the error goes away and everything works fine. Although I have a fix, I have several child swf's that I don't always know what components are in them.
View 2 RepliesIs there any code to force a V2 combobox to open updwards, rather than the default downwards?
View 1 RepliesWhen a combobox is elected in the flex app, there is a quick flicker, then the combobox needs to be selected again in order to get the dropdown to open. After that, the dropdown works as expected, but only while selecting the control subsequent times while on the form. Reloading the form requires the double selection again.
View 1 RepliesI have a Flex 4 app with an external ItemRenderer inside of a DataGroup for a repeating form. The DataGroup dataprovider is an ArrayCollection (coll_sites). In the documentParent I have a trio of comboBoxes (Status, Year, Area) that trigger a filter function that operates directly on coll_sites.The itemRenderer has a series of textInputs and comboBoxes. Three of these comboBoxes are tied to fields in coll_sites (again, Status, Year and Area) that are filtered by the aforementioned parentDocument comboBoxes.The problem I am having is that in the itemRenderer when the field is one of the filtered ones, the itemRenderer ComboBox will not close. If it's not filtered, there is no problem. I have confirmed that the problem ComboBox updates the ArrayCollection appropriately, it just won't close unless another Item in the dropdown is selected.[code]In the ItemRenderer code above, the ComboBox for STATUS works exactly as it should but YEAR stays open after changing. In my full code, I have three such filtered fields and all three behave exactly the same. The other six fields which are not filtered, close appropriately.
View 1 RepliesHow do you force Combobox dropdowns to stay open even when other Alert boxes appear. Looking at what to subclass from mx.Combobox, there doesn't seem to be much that i can do to short of implementing an entire combobox from scratch.
View 1 RepliesI'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?

I am trying to have multiple links off site but have hit a brick wall. If I have the code listed below, it opens the second link as soon as you open the links page, If I have the"function onLinkClick (evt)", above btn6_btn I end up with the duplicate error message. Is there a way to have multiple link buttons on a page. I have played with this for hours.

I work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
}
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
Is there a way to open the "open file dialog box" in a swf using javascript.
The swf is on a webpage.
I can use this to trace the new combobox value every time the user changes it:
Actionscript Code:
// Create listener object.var cbListener:Object = new Object();// Create event handler function.cbListener.change = function (evt_obj:Object) { trace("Currently selected item is: " + evt_obj.target.selectedItem.label);}// Add event listener.my_cb.addEventListener("change", cbListener);
But that doesn't do anything when I select the same value. This is what I want it to do: when using the combobox some textfields should fill itself with some default values belonging to that label. Then the user can change those values if desired. When the user then chooses another combobox label the fields get filled with the default values of that label again. But when the user chooses the label previously set, the textfields don't get refilled, cause the listener object only reacts when the label value has been changed, not when the label value is the same as previously chosen. Is there a way to make it react upon chosing any label? Not just others, but every label?

View 3 RepliesIf I have a ComboBox component on stage and it has 11 options in it, is it possible to populate a dynamic text field with text based on which one of the 11 options are selected?ComboBox has instance name of 'age' and has 11 options to choose from (Opt1, Opt2, Opt3, Opt4, Opt5, etc.).There are also 11 dynamic text fields (instance and variable names of c1, c2, c3, etc.). I want the text fields to be blank unless the corresponding option is chosen. So, if Opt1 is selected from ComboBox 'age' then populate 'c1' with the number 1, if 'Opt2' is selected populate 'c2' with 2 and so on, otherwise the text fields stay blank.
