I'm using the cs3 combobox control. I want the prompt "Select a City"to persist, but it disappears as soon as you select an item in the list. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[Code]...
Has anyone else had the problem of the ComboBox.prompt disappearing after the ComboBox.enabled is set to false?
View 1 RepliesHere is my code:
<mx:ComboBox prompt="" editable="true" dataProvider="{tableSelector.list}"/>
When this code executes, flex just sets the selectedIndex to 0 and displays the first item in the dataProvider instead of leaving the text and prompt as the empty string "". How do I get around this? I need the text property to be "" unless the user selects another item in the combobox.
Observe the Flex program below (I'm using Flex Builder 3 w/ 3.5 SDK). The second combobox is conditional on the first. If a 'first name' is chosen, then you are allowed to choose a 'last name'. If 'none' is chosen, then you are not allowed to choose a last name, but rather prompted to choose a first name.
To see the mysterious issue of the disappearing labels, run this program and choose a first name. Then choose a last name. All is well. Then choose 'none' in the first combobox. The prompt of the second combobox changes back, and the last names are removed. All is still well. Then try selecting a first and last name again. You will see that after choosing a first name, the last names do not appear, although the spaces for them do (and if you debug the program, the correct data appears in the dataprovider).[code]...
I know how to get images to display in the dropdown of a combobox, but I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how I can get an image to display in the "prompt"?
View 2 RepliesI'm making a Flash game which will be up on Facebook, I'm using Python/Django on the backend but to talk to Facebook. I use the Facebook Flash API. The problem is when I ask for extended permission from the user, using FBML. I get a link which I have to click and get the permission. How can I make sure a popup appears instead of the link. I'm using the following code.<fb:prompt-permission perms="publish_stream">permission</fb:prompt-permission>

I got Facebook to work with Flash as I wanted it to using the Facebook-Actionscript-Api. Works great and I got get Graph api working so that I'm able to post stuff to ppl's walls using the Facebook.api("/me/feed") post stuff without asking the user permission, as it's already got that permission, and it's great for many occasions. But not all.

If no flash is installed and one browses to http:[url].... it'll launch a popup box: How exactly are they doing this? Through some jQuery java-script code snippet or other? Second, I would like to know if there is a better way to inform the user that they need flash. Or is this an appropriate way?
View 1 RepliesI know only basic html and no javascript. I just found this embed code somewhere and It works good except It won't prompt the user to update if user has lower version of flash!The second piece of code is some code i use for regular embedding. This version updates user's flash content if needed.I have tried to incorporate those two to make the first version have the update function but I'm sitting for hours at my comp and can't figure it out since my html and java knowledge is very poor.[code]
View 2 RepliesHow do i disable the flash prompt that comes for microphone and camera access.
View 2 RepliesI have a parent swf called Main.swf that loads a child Registration.swf via a regular loader class then adds it to the stage. This child has a webcam function that captures an image but before that happens it prompts the user for permission to allow the webcam to be turned on. The problem I'm having is that in my IDE the prompt works like a charm and continues through to capturing image data. When I plop the files on a live server it fails. A friend recommended that it's most likely an issue with how I'm requesting permission from the child, so instead I'm calling an event to the parent telling IT to prompt and still no luck. Having the same issues. Note: The parent .swf was published as Player 9 and the child is in Player 10. I had to do it this way because each package has dependencies that require it.
View 1 RepliesI request my user from mic and camera setting on my website with Flash, but the remember checkbox does not show, so every time my user logs in he's requested once again for permissions, how can I make the checkbox show to avoid this?
View 1 RepliesMy Flash app calls:
Facebook.ui("pay.prompt", data, onPayCallback, "iframe");
which works correctly on all browsers, until a recent change in the embedding of the swf file. I now use wmode="window" which gives much better performance in IE (previously I used "opaque").When the facebook credits popup appears, the game is now hidden as expected. It returns correctly when the popup is closed. However, on IE (version 9, other versions are untested) the callback is never called.
I'm using swfobject to inject my swf. My SWF basically initiates a webcam and prompts the user for access to the cam. Problem is whenever I center align the div that contains the swf object the Allow/Deny button seems to be unresponsive/not clickable. It's the oddest thing.
View 1 RepliesHow can save data into a XML file without user prompt dialog in Action Script 3?
I'm writing an simple application (with adobe flash) that runs on client PC and save user state data in XML file in same directory of app. When i use FileReference it shows a user dialog for saving file. Is there any class to save just XML data directly into XML file?
I think writing just XML (text plane) data couldn't make any security problems?

View 1 RepliesAll symbols have stopped rendering while in the IDE. They publish fine, but I can't see them on stage.
Details: Flash Pro CS4 10.0.2 Mac OS X 10.5.8 on MacBook Pro w/ 4GB RAM.Objects that are not symbols render fine (shapes, groups, text, components).Symbols are selectable and show the blue selection boundary.Symbol selection is constrained to the shape of the symbol, not the bounds.The 'empty clip' handle is shown for each symbol(and effects / filters are rendered on it).The layers are not hidden, and switching to outine doesn't change the appearance.All files opened on this Mac show this behavior(IDE pref setting for don't display symbols?) .Files openfine on other machines (PC & Mac).I trashed the 'Flash CS4 Preferences' file, but it didn't fix it.Here's the IDE view of the stage:
I made a 3d box using flash cs4 (ive made one using imported images as the sides and another one using vector siding made in flash) Both times, when ive finished the box and rotate it, sides will dissapear then reappear, depending on where the box was in its rotation. For instance, when you look at it dead on, the front side seems opaque, but when i start rotating it, the fron side, at certain angles, becomes transparent and you can actually see INSIDE the box thru the wall, then as it moves it becomes solid again. I am trying to make a presentation for work of a package, rotating 360 degrees on its y axis, but keep getting these odd disapearing sides.

I have a textfield that, when set to STATIC TEXT works absolutely fine, in the correct font. If I set it to DYNAMIC TEXT, the text shows up as Arial or some other default on systems where the selected font isn't available. It shows up in the proper font on systems that have the font installed.

View 4 RepliesExtremely frustrated with this. I've created a simple class that extends the UIComponent. I create an instance of this class in a parent class and utilise the 'addChild' method to add it to the parent. I've overridden the 'updateDisplayList' method of the extended UIComponent to add my own drawing routine using the 'graphics' object.
My problem occurs when I start attempt to change any of the following properties (x , y , width, height) either directly or using 'move' or 'setActualSize' because the UIComponent will no longer display - prior to changing any of these properties the object displays fine. I know the object is still there, the 'updateDisplayList' method is still being called (as I'm calling 'invalidateDisplayList' after each change) and it correctly reports the changes.
I've created a new snippet in the Code Snippets panel in Flash CS5. However, it doesn't appear anywhere in the panel. Does anyone know where it's gone?
View 1 RepliesIm new to flash and doing my best to teach myself.Im using CS3.I've already been working on this project for a while, and I don't know why this is all of the sudden happening.I have a text graphic that I want to create a motion tween with.I created a new layer for it, and drug it to the stage.If I tested the movie at that point, it looked fine and didn't move. If I tried to move the original keyframe, or added a motion tween, it would look fine when I played it on the stage, but when I go to "test movie", its either not on the screen at all, or its in a totally different position.
View 1 RepliesI have a list component that has hard-coded labels on it (for testing). I then rotate the list component 90-degrees and notice the text disappears(during design time).
I test the file and the labels do not show up also during runtime.
I can get the labels to show if I rotate the component back to its' original state.

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.
