To create a similar page [URL] in Flex what are all the basic component involved , just high level is enough here is the template I guess looks like
<VBox>
<comp:Header/>
<HBox>
[Code]....
By Loading all the products into the tile List which takes lot of time to render the whole page , how to resolve this?
I have a List of items which is based on the contents of the "category" that a user selects
When the user changes selection, I change the dataProvider of the list be be the contents of the current category.
Sometimes the list contains items, sometimes it does not
Is there a way of hiding the list when it has no items?
I know that I could do this when setting the dataProvider, but it seems like there should be an event or something else that I could be using.
I am using a tile list component and an areatext component. When I click on the graphic in the list a description of the graphic comes up in the text area. No problems so far. However I want to view a large image of the graphic at the same time as the text. I will attach one graphic so you can see how they show up. I will attach the .swf file also. You can see in the middle of the two areas (where the green square is) this is where I want the larger graphic to appear.
Here is the script
majorworksthumb_tl.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, majorworksthumbClicked)
function majorworksthumbClicked(event:Event):void {
majorwork_ta.text = event.target.selectedItem.data;
majorworks_mc.MovieClip = event.target.selectedItem.MovieClip;}

I have a Tile List Component full of pictures,when a picture is clicked i want it to gotoandstop at the frame where I made the picture fill the page. How do I do that if I can't insert an addeventlistener for any of my thumbnails in the component? how do I make the thumbnails link to Urls and load UIs? Heres my basic code:
thumbnails_tl.addItem({source:"website-01.png"});
thumbnails_tl.addItem({source:"website-02.png"});
thumbnails_tl.addItem({source:"website-03.png"});

I 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'.

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.

View 2 RepliesI'm creating a facebook application in flex. I'm actually working on the friends component that shows your friends who are using the application. now, each friend has a profile image.
I created the component using a s:List element.
In the Skin Class of the element i configured the requestedColumnCount to 3, which means it shows 3 friends. i added buttons to scroll left and right in the list.
Whenever I scroll to see a different friend, for a half of a second i see no image because the List component is loading the image in order to view it.
is there a way to make the list preload all the elements so i won't have this kind of problem ?
Below is a function set that's used to get info from an XML source(s) and populate a List Component (videoList). Works great. The second function loads data from a separate XML source and populates the SAME List Component. When the second function is called it loads the data in addition to the existing data into the List Component. I want it to REPLACE the data. How would I accomplish this?
public function getXMLdata(event:Event):void {
var campXML:XML = new XML(xmlLoader.data);
var vid:XML;
for each(vid in campXML.vid) {

I created an isntant of a list component on stage called "myList" and added 8 items to it.I need to align the labels in this list to the right or center.It's on the main time line and not in a seperate as file (if it matters...).I tried using setStyle but it failed (not the solution or I used it wrong).
View 3 RepliesI'm having troubles getting selectedItems from a List Component in Flash CS4. Each time I select multiple selections the object that selectedItems returns seems to be populated with the last selected item in each of its instances. What is strange from the example I provide below is that once you've made your selection and click the label you can update another list with the correct selected values. But the output values are still traced incorrectly.
Code:
import fl.data.DataProvider;
import fl.controls.List;
import fl.controls.Button;
var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider();
dp.addItem({label:"Item 1"});

View 1 RepliesTo select all the items in myList I wrote:
myList.selectedItems = ['red','cyan','magenta'] ;
But what if I don't know about the items in the mx:list in advance? How can I select all the items in a list without specifying their names?
This question specifically deals with AS3 and list components and styling a selected item, if that's even possible. I've got an XML/Flash Video player that lists the videos with a thumbnail and description in a list component. I got the source files from an Adobe tutorial:[URL]...I'm able to style everything the way I want it. The problem comes when I try to attribute a specific text style to a selected item. I understand how the information is being taken from the XML and looped into the list component. What I don't get is how you reference a particular item in the list and whether or not you can attribute a different style to that item when the event listener fires.

View 3 RepliesI am using a horizontal tilelist in flex to display an image gallery with only one item in horiz. tilelist being shown at a time. I have next and previous buttons on both sides. The problem is I want to display a particular item/image in that list when user clicks on a thumb image from another thumbimages tilelist at bottom. I used someTilelist.selectedIndex property but it just selects that particular index in list, it does not show that particular item/image. I want the list to show that particular image, not just select it. Please take note that the horiz. tilelist shows only one image at time.

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.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to write a custom fadeTo(component, x, y):void method, which takes an arbitrary Flex Component as an argument and moves it to a given location, but smoothly.
The problem I'm running into is the following.
I want to send the component itself as argument, like this: (using Button as an example only)
fadeTo(myButton, 200, 500);
(this should move myButton smoothly from its current position to the position indicated as parameter)
However, I don't really know what type an arbitrary Flex Component is. How should I handle that?
I have a custom ActionScript component that I'm using in a Flex application (Flex 3.3, ActionScript 3). This component contains an Image control whose visibility is set dynamically based on a property of the data element provided to the component. The problem is that even when I set the image to be visible, it will not render onscreen. Is there something specific I need to do in order for the image to render? Snippets of relevant code below:
override public function set data( value:Object ):void {
_data = value;
if( _data ) {
if( _myImg ) {
_myImg.source = someImageClass;
