What is the best way to achieve Vertically stacked buttons like this?
I have a VBox with fixed width and height, and I add image objects with fixed width and height. I find that if my objects' height exceed the VBox's height, it doesn't show the object. I tried validateNow(), but it doesn't work. The object is added, but VBox just doesn't display it, so it leaves a blank with a same height as my other object.

View 2 RepliesI am having troubles adding a radiobutton to a VBox in actionscript.
var radioButton:RadioButton = new RadioButton();
radioButton.groupName = "source";
radioButton.label = "label";
[Code].....
I first created these radiobuttons in mxml and it worked fine, but now that the radiobuttons need to be dynamically generated in actionscript it doesnt work.
When stepping through in the debugger I get to a binding error (1009) when trying to execute the addchild statement and nothing shows up in the VBox.

I only really need the HBox answer but figure that if we get a good answer in here I'm trying to do a similar thing with a VBox. It would be nice to know this in both actionscript and MXML. So I have an HBox that I want some text aligned from the left and some radios from the right. Like so:

I am in need of a strange solution. I have one requirement in which I am displaying two components in a VBox. But on click of the main container I need to maximize that and need to display the components in horizontal. I was just wondering whether I can change the VBox to HBox and viceversa dynamically using actionscript or some other way.
View 1 RepliesI was wrote the following code to set the background image in one vBox.
vBox.setStyle("backgroundImage", "PreviewBackground.png");
vBox.setStyle("backgroundAttachment", "fixed");
Where the height and width of vBox was 250 x 350 and the height and width of background image was 400 x 400.The problem is that the background image doesn't show the full image. The image has cropped. How can i show the full image as a background image?
In flex, I am using VBox & HBox to stack components. When I try to get x,y coordinate of a component, I always get 0. If I specify cooridnate like mx:VBox x="120", then I get the value.

I have a VBox. I fill it with some children. Each children having a different height. I didn't specify any height to my VBox. So that it will resize to it's content. Ok.

View 1 RepliesI'm working with Flex 3.4 SDK.
I'm trying to programmatically(yep, must be this way) style/skin a VBox so that its top right corner is rounded, and it gets a two colors gradient brackground.
Modifying examples I found around I was able to accomplish both effects(corner and background) but only separately:
VBox with not all rounded corners: [URL]
VBox with gradient background: [URL]
But what I need to do is to apply both at the same time. And all my coding attempts so far have failed silently.
I'm trying to style vscrollbar and hscrollbar inside a Vbox.But there's always a white square thing at the right bottom cornor which can not be styled.

downArrowOverSkin: Embed(source="assets/images/scrollbar/arrow_down.png");
downArrowDownSkin: Embed(source="assets/images/scrollbar/arrow_down.png");

I have a VBox containing a bunch of panels. I have implemented dragging and dropping but I need to be able to scroll automatically when the item is drug near the edge. I am having mixed results. I can get it to work, but not well. My example is below. It works if the user bounces their mouse around a little near the top or bottom edge, but I want it to work if they just hold the mouse there.[code]So if they are within 50px of an edge then it should scroll by 50px. I've exaggerated the numbers just to get an affect.

View 3 RepliesI'm having trouble getting a vertical scrollbar to appear when the browser window is smaller than the content within the .swf file that is automatically embedded into the html template that Flex creates on a release build.
I fixed this issue with Firefox and Chrome by adding a style to the html template page that the .swf is embedded in.I've even changed the fixed height of my main .mxml file to 100%.IE is still not showing vertical scrollbars when the browser window size shrinks smaller than the content inside the .swf.

View 3 RepliesI Have a VBox, and set the verticleGap = 0. Inside the VBox I have a Repeater. When I run the App, the items listed from the Repeater have a large gap between each line. Is there a way to set the verticleGap on the Repeater, or reduce that space?
View 1 RepliesI am using mx:Tree (in Flex 4), and assigned a customised MXTreeItemRenderer for every items. As the TreeItemRenderer contains a list with tileLayout, which means the height of every row is variable. So I have to set the tree's "variableRowHeight to true. When I was testing the tree, everything went well. But when I was using the vertical scroller, I met some problems:
The scroll bar did not move to the position I want. When I was scrolling the content, the scroll bar sometimes scrolled to a unwanted position (e.g. the head of the tree). When there are more rows, the problem is more obvious.When I was scrolling the tree, the images were flicking all the time.
