I have a Game-sprite representing a game room with up to 3 players, it works ok. And would like to populate a List component with those Game's, based on an XML data coming from a socket.I've prepared a simple test case demonstrating my problem -ListTest.fla (should have a List component in its Library):
import fl.data.*;
import fl.controls.*;
stop();

The code below sets up a List object in the main controller class that uses a custom cell renderer (CustomListCell class). the CustomListCell class creates a Button object for the cell that will be used to delete itself from the List's DataProvider. How can I properly access the parent List object from its custom cell renderer?
//Controller Class
private function createList():void {
provider = new DataProvider(data);
list = new List();
list.width = 200;
list.height = 400;

I have a combobox that I need to style with colors from xml. I call this XML file in the same class that has my combobox instance and break out the color I need to a var.
I then use MyCellRenderer (a class that extends CellRenderer) to style the drop down list items like so:
Code:
myComboBox.dropdown.setStyle('cellRenderer', MyCellRenderer );
This all works perfectly with a hardcoded color already inside the MyCellRenderer class.
My problem is when I instantiate MyCellRenderer and try to pass the color through I get the following error when I click the combobox open:
Code:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
at fl.controls::List/drawList()
at fl.controls::List/draw()
at fl.core::UIComponent/callLaterDispatcher()
Is it possible to instantiate a class that extends CellRenderer? If not why not?
how can I pass a variable to my custom CellRenderer class?
I recently used fl.controls.List to implement a list with custom CellRenderer.I did it by implementing ICellRenderer:[code]Inside MyRenderer I added a fl.controls.Button, then set its label. However, when the List is rendered (by dynamically adding item into its dataProvider), the button body is not rendered, only the label is rendered. When I move my mouse over it, the button is then properly rendered.I found this strange, then tried use myButton.drawNow() in constructor. The problem seem to be solved. Now the button is rendered, but the label is not at the very center of the button (it's a bit towards right). Then, when I move my mouse over it again, the label move to the center, and everything's ok.This may be a minor problem, but I just wonder why this is happening. Why must drawNow() to be called? Why the label is not properly placed even when drawNow() is called?

View 1 RepliesIs there a way to make a bulleted list in flash with custom bullets? If so, can this be used from within a TextArea in Flex (mx.controls.TextArea) when setting htmlText?
For example:
<li>Item</li>
<li>Item</li>
The list above will render fine when set into a TextArea using htmlText (versus just setting the text property). The rendered text will have standard vanilla bullets. Is there a way to style these bullets with custom images, like you can in standard HTML/CSS?
I want to create a custom list in Flex for an interface prototype. The list is supposed to have an image and 3 text fields. This is what I have done so far, the control displayed is what I want. But, when I click on one of the items, the item does not appear (visually) to be selected. I was not sure how I would implement this.
Here is my code so far:
<s:List width="400" height="220"
dataProvider="{arrColl}"
alternatingItemColors="[#EEEEEE, white]">
<s:itemRenderer>

I am using several instances of the same custom component on the same SWF. The component is essentially just a textfield with special sizing requirements. I also have another "wrapper" component that deals with the info from the textfield components. I was initially planning on using the stage index to associate the data with the textfield component it came from. This became more complicated than I anticipated. When I trace from the wrapper i can't get the index of the textfield components. So I got it in the component code and sent it with the info to the wrapper via a custom event. The problem there is that i can't tell which component is which because they are indexed identically. I can also see the component shim as well as the textfield.I'm just really confused about how programmatic components work on the display list.
My main Question. Is there a better way to associate the info with the proper component? I guess that's my only question. Please point me in the right direction.
EDIT2: I created a dummy place-holder component that just draws a rectangle then at runtime replaces it with programmatically generated textfield component.
I need to implement a custom cell renderer in a project of mine, I have done some search on google but couldn't find what I need, I need each cell in the tilelist to display 2 icons with couple of labels, I need a good example to start it. If possible I need a way to design the template as a movieclip and pass it to the tilelist for rendering the cells.
View 2 RepliesI have a datagrid whose data keeps updating quite frequently.On every update, I need to change the cell color of only those cells whose data has changed.That too, if the updated value is less than the older value then the cell color should change to RED else, GREEN.
I have tried using labelFunction, cellrenderer, etc. But to no avail.By no means, I am able to access the present data in the cells to compare it with the new data.I have added the sample classes in the attachment. To get them to work, just create an fla with a DataGrid & a Button components in its library & mention 'del' as its document class.Just run the fla & click on the two buttons on stage to see the values in the price column changing.
how I can manage to give single words inside a DataGrid-CellRenderer a different color than defined by the TextFormat for that CellRenderer? It's not how to get these single words, it's how to use more than one color inside one cell...

I am attempting to combine two AS files that are acting as cellRenderers individually but not simultaneously for cells in a datagrid in a Flash document I have created. The first styles the cells to have alternating row colors and the second allows for non-text content to be rendered. The issue is whenever I attempt to combine them the document reports errors with "super" and "override" among others.

I build a flash video player which works fine when exported to swf. However when I publish it (F12) does not loading the xml file. As a result video player stuck to frame 2 (where presented a List with video titles and with click on title plays the specific video). The xml link does not ends to .xml. Here is my code about xml loading. I try to change the Flash Player from 10.2 to 9 but I have the same problem.In addition some buttons in frame 2 does not works I suppose because of "Stuck" from xml loading.( Work fine when exported in swf!) Flash Player version: 10.2, Actionscript:3.0, Flash Professional CS 5.5, fps:24, size: 850px(w)x480px(h). Code from FRAME 2.

I'm wondering if anyone has figured out how to pull data from a column in a SharePoint 2007 list to be able to dyamically generate a reaction in a flash object.Our designer created a dashboard of thermometers for our projects that use two variables, % complete and status (green, yellow, red, blue).
As the end user, I want to be able to update my project in my SharePoint list and have it so that my updates automatically populate that flash based dashboard.Right now, he's using an XML document that is stored in a folder on our SharePoint site and then simply updating the XML file when there are changes.It would be ideal to pull this data from the list rather than having to update and then upload the xml document to the SharePoint site.

I need to detect when a Flex Spark List (spark.components.List) data has changed so that I can programmatically change its scrollbar. I know that List is a an EventDispatcher but it's unclear which event I'd register for.
Edit: My List's dataProvider is an ArrayCollection that elements are added too. So the dataProvider is never replaced. I considered listening to the backing ArrayCollection, but it's possible the List will react to the change after my listener, which alters the scrollbar. Thus my listener's changes will be superseded by that of the List.
I'm using the XML Connector to bind information to a List Component. Everything binds okay but when I run the MC I only get one item of information. The object I'm binding from the XML is called "Location" and there are a total of 5 listed in the XML. The five are Los Angeles, Seattle... The only one being displayed is Los Angeles. What do I need to do get the other 4 locations to display in the list?
View 1 RepliesI have a Spark List (spark.components.List) backed by an ArrayCollection for its dataProvider. The List has a vertical scrollbar when there's too many rows to display. What I want is when a new row is added to the List for it to scroll to the bottom to show that new row.
I've tried calling List's ensureIndexIsVisible from a listener on the ArrayCollection. This doesn't work because the List hasn't yet fully rendered the new row. It will either scroll to the second from the last row, or throw the exception:

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to extend the mx:Box container so that two buttons sit on the outside of the container to cycle through it's contents (similar to a scrollbar).
I've made a custom component that looks basically
like "mx:HBox->mx:Button mx:Box mx:Button" where the buttons and box are children of the hbox.
How do I offer the user access to the box (say its dataProvider and itemRenderer) through my custom component?
So they just need to write 'local:MyCustomComponent dataProvider="rar" itemRenderer="rar"/>' and my box inside that component can use it?
