Flex :: Choose Which Component Gets Scrollbars In Nested Flex Containers?
Aug 19, 2011I have several nested VBoxes in flex, and I'm aiming for one of them to get scrollbars if the total content is larger than the window height. However, when I grow the container, it doesn't get scrollbars at all (vertical scroll policy is AUTO), and the outer container stretches past the bottom of the screen, causing the entire app to get scrollbars. So it looks something like this:

Flex :: Referencing Component IDs Within Modules, Nested Viewstacks?
Dec 23, 2010The IDs for all tags in an MXML component, no matter how deeply nested they are, generate public variables of the component being defined. As a result, all id properties must be unique within a document. This also means that if you specified an ID for a component instance, you can access that component from anywhere in the application: from functions, external class files, imported ActionScript files, or inline scripts.
Which is fine if your application is all contained within one MXML, but I'm having trouble referencing IDs of components within Modules, and then inside ViewStacks/Navigation Containers within a given Module.
If I can reference a module with FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.myModule, shouldn't I be able to reference a Panel called myModulePanel with the following?

Mar 31, 2009I have a video player that's control bar's x & y are over the top of the video. It is set to alpha 0, and when the user rolls over the video the control bar's alpha goes to 1 and becomes visible. I have a few even listeners and a function that makes this happen. My issue is that the buffer handle and the volume handle do not go to alpha 0, despite the fact that their parents do. The instance of "volumeHandle" is the child of "volumeSlider". "volumeSlider" does go to alpha 0, then to alpha 1 on rollover, but it's child "volumeHandle, is always visible. The same applies to the respective instances of the buffer bar.
I have tried
volumeHandle.volumeSlider.alpha = 0;
But that doesn't work. My guess is that the conflict lies in the linkage of the controls for the buffer and volume handles.
Flex :: 4 - Null-component - Checking If The Cancel Button Component In The Child Component?
Jun 23, 2011I have a component "child" which has a cancel button. Now this component is placed in a state called "newChildComp" I also have another component called "parent". In the parent component, i have a button that dispatches an event. Here is the event code:
[Code].....
so, basically,i am checking to see if the cancel button component in the Child component, while i am still in the parent Compoent, was clicked, if it was clicked, call the cancelButtonHandler. The problem is by the time the addNewChild handles the event, that cancel button was still null. My question is how do i solve this without using the itemCreationPolicy on the cancel button?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Accessing (Nested) Component Properties From Class
Jul 29, 2009(Actionscript 2 btw - and actually cs4, not that it really makes any difference?) I have a class that instantiates a movieclip from the library, e.g.:
Code:
debugbar:MovieClip = thing.AttachMovie("debugbar", "debugbar_mc", 999);
So attaching it to the where ever "thing" is - could be movie clip or level0 or whatever, doesn't matter as "debugbar" is a private variable of the class. Now the important part - debugbar in the library is a movieclip that contains some components - buttons and textInputs. The problem comes when trying to access these components.
I would have thought that this would work:
Code:
debugbar.input_txt.text = "hello";
In order to set the text of "input_txt", the instance name of a TextInput component on the timeline of the movie clip (put there in author time). However, this does not work. Infact, I cannot access any specific "component" properties - they come back undefined. I can however set and retrieve MovieClip properties for the "input_txt", such as _x. However there is one added strange thing with this too - setting _visible to false doesn't seem to work (however perhaps a component by default overrides this).
I also appear not to be able to add event handlers to the component - at least for the usual component events. I tried casting it to a component, such as:
Code:
var temp:TextInput = TextInput(debugbar.input_txt);
trace(temp);
which gave "temp" as null.
However if you trace the thing itself without casting to what it is, it gives the path to correctly. It almost seems like the components are somehow broken when trying to access them this way - or that they cannot be accessed this way?
The thing is, I was able to access all of this before, when the code to do it was placed on the timeline (frame 1, the only frame) of the debugbar itself, where the components were child instances. This meant I could just reference them directly too - so input_txt rather than debugbar.input_txt , although that is probably largely irrelevant. I need to have it in a class though, as I need to pass in certain objects that need to be accessed by the mc.

Flex :: Make A Custom Component Or Extend The List Component For A 2D Top Down View MAP ?
Nov 11, 2010I'm building a top view 2D map, that it's objects are stored on the server.The kind of objects are 10 and might be a photo, label, button, lists, mix of them or labels with tooltips.The component must request the "areas" that are missing on screen.An area is 1000x1000 px and is cached in flex.To move in the map, will be like in google maps (drag-and-drop).I should be able to have another list and move objects from one to another using drag-an-drop on objects. Ex.: I grab an objects from a list and I move it on this map, I release the mouse button and the item is placed there.Now the problem is: I build a custom component for this trying to emulate the item renderer for performance and recyclage, implement drag-and-drop on objects and request the areas that are missing?
or
I extend the List component from spark and I add some features as multiple kind of itemrenderers and use recycle on them. Of course it must be able to request the missing areas on the screen and cache it's data.Maybe create a custom layout is needed too.What I need is something that must be really fluid, so the lighter this component is, the better.
UPDATE: *There will be not any object over another.
*I will not use hitTest on bitmaps because all bitmaps are wrapped in another component,as they,for now are itemrenderers.
Anyway I already begin to do this using a class that extends the SkinnableDataContainer and a custom layout. As the layout is not like a grid, is sparse, random items at diferent points(x, y).How to get the localX and localY, relative to item renderer and not to the Spark List, from a DragEvent in Flex 4?
