View 1 RepliesBasically, I have a button and on click it displays a menu. I want to click that menu a second time and the menu closes. Currently, every time you click the button, the menu reopens. I pasted the Flex livedoc example below. If you click the button, the menu keeps reopening.Now, I rigged it up by setting a var to open and closed, so when clicking the button it does a check. However, if you click away from the screen, the HIDE event gets dispatched, and the menu closes. This messed up the open close var being set.
How could I make this Flex example below show the menu on button click, and then on a second button click, it closes the menu? Take into affect that if you click away from the menu, it closes it.Also, I played around with the MOUSE_DOWN_OUTSIDE event for the button and set the preventDefault, and the FlexMouseEvent event.cancelable is set to false.Changing to a PopUpMenuButton is not an option. I have to much skinning involved.Here is the Flex example:

I've found it's often useful to special case the first item in a drop-down menu (ie, an instance of Menu). For example, if I want to pick a color from the list provided by a web service:
<mx:PopUpMenuButton id="colorSelelector"
dataProvider="{colorsService.lastResult}" />
I might also want a special-case, which is "enter a new color", allowing the user to enter the RGB values for a new color which isn't in the list. For example:
var newColor = { label: "Enter a new color", rgb: null };
Then used with:
<mx:PopUpMenuButton id="colorSelelector"
dataProvider="{colorsService.lastResult}"
lastOption="{newColor}" />
So, apart from changing the list I get back from the service, is there any better way to do this?
(and just a preemptive comment: this is a simplification... I'm not actually trying to make a color-picking-list)
var contextMenu:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
contextMenu.hideBuiltInItems();
var contactList : ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("Add to Existing List");

View 4 RepliesI have a flash site that I am building, but the transitions out-of and in-to each section is unique to that section. For example, going from 'home' to 'about' calls two different transition, which would be dependant on which section you are in and where you are going. How do I set it up so that it knows what section you are currently 'in', thereby calling that movieclip, then calls the second movieclip depending on which new menu section you selected. My guess is that it has something to do with setting variables and maybe listener events .. but I'm not an AS pro!

View 1 RepliesI am a bit new at this, but I am creating a flash site in which I want to have it adjusted to the individual browser size. I already have placed an expanding background so that it will fit proportionaly to any site. Now I would like to have a menu which loads from top to bottom (from the very top, crossing to the bottom) but with a style of a fade effect.. not just a bar moving down.. but rather that it is being built while it comes down. For example the right side comes down but a bit after the left side and then the fill color.. and afterwards the text on it. And then have it so that when one clicks on one of the links.. the entire menu moves to the right border of the page so as to make space for the content. I am not sure if I expressed myself well. I am not looking for a complete lesson on how to do this.. but more or less what it would take in order for me to go step by step doing the reaserch and building it.
View 3 Repliesi have a movie clip (mc_1) inside of this movieclip i made
-one button ("start") : by its event Roll_Over the animation (of mc_1) starts
-ten menu buttons (b_1,b_2,b_3,....,b_10) : at first they're not on the stage, but they appear one by one,frames by frames, after I rolled over "start".
-one invisible button (inv_btn): placed right under the area occupied by those previous buttons..by its RollOut event i make the menu rewind so the ten buttons disappera one after one other.
now i have to put the menu buttons inside an array (cause i made a script for dynamic loading images from XML) but i receive #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. this is why i put in the array buttons that at first doesn't even exist...and when the menu closes disappear again..how can I handle the situation?

So basically if "About" is pressed the about file loads onto the stage... The problem I am having is, when a menu item is pressed, let's say "About", I want whatever file has been loaded previously, I want it to fade out and then load the selected file... How could I do this? Once the menu is pressed I could easily make an as to fade the current movie out, but how would the file know what to load as the next item?

I made a site, but the menu isn't loading properly. If you reload the page the menu loads, but not sure why not loading every time.
Right now menu and site sections in main SWF file. Maybe I put the menu into a separate SWF file it would load properly?
If the site sections are in the main SWF timeline, then how do I do the actionscript for the menu buttons?
Ie)
menu in level7
main site in level0
site sections are "product section", "about us section", "glossary section" on main timeline
So I'm not loading any SWFs, just moving between sections on main timeline.

View 1 RepliesI am creating a chart using mxml. The mxml tags only create a chart with a horizontal axis and vertical axis. My result event handler has actionscript code that loops through the xml result set and creates all the series (line series and stacked bar). This part of the code works fine. Now I need to use the functionfill function to set individual colors to each series. All the examples I have found call the functionfill from within an MXML tag, like so:
