Flash :: Drag From A ScrollPane To A Target Outside Of The ScrollPane?
Nov 22, 2010
I haven't been able to find a non-hack way to use Drag and Drop with the AS3 ScrollPane component.
Here's what I'm doing:
I create a container mc, which I then add a bunch of children to. The children are what I want to drag.
However, dragging is constrained to the boundaries of the ScrollPane. This seems to me like a limitation of the ScrollPane component.
I know it can be worked around with attaching a dupe mc to the cursor pos, then manipulating other mcs on mouse up, but..

import fl.containers.ScrollPane;
recentMsg_bt.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK,resentMsgClick);
var sp:ScrollPane = new ScrollPane();[code].......
Everything works just fine, except for the last msg gets only half displayed as if the scrollpane wouldn't scroll to the end.

I have a scrollPane component set up with a long form in it. When a user gets to the bottom he can submit the form, the button then navigates him away from the scrollPane. If the user comes back to the scrollPane, the content in the scrollPane is scrolled all the way to the bottom where they clicked away. How do I reset the content so if they return to the form, the top of the form is visible in the scrollPane instead of the bottom of the form?

How would I put buttons or checkboxes in a scroll pane so it will scroll.I tried adding them as children but they seem to be attached to the scrollpane but not inside. they do not scroll they just extend out of it?Is there a way to put content in a scrollpane besides text. The problem I'm trying to solve is dealing with a large number of checkboxes in a small area. The checkboxes are dynamically generated from the script.

I have a ScrollPane component to stage and I give it as source a new MovieClip instance. How can I access the movieclip inside scrollpane? This is what I have so far but it returns null:
var regForm = new RegistrationForm();
regForm.name = "rForm";
regFormSP.source = regForm;
var form = Object(regFormSP.content).getChildByName("rForm");
trace(form) // returns null
[Code]..
There is an object "instance20" as a parent to rForm...Why is that?

I have setup a flash MovieClip with a scrollpane in it, and another MovieClip that run's a FOR loop to create a list of buttons dynamically. I have the script pull the dynamic MovieClip and load it as a source to the scrollPane but the scrollbars are not appearing. To make sure that the scrollpane was working, I added an event listener to the scrollpane that when I clicked it it will run scrollPane.invalidate() and the scrollbars will pop on.
So here's my problem/question: If I'm dynamically adding a listMC to this scrollPaneMC, how do I get listMC to throw the invalidate() to the parent scrollPaneMC? Here's another way to look at it: Root adds a child scrollPaneMC. ScrollPaneMC uses listMC as a source from the library. listMC run's its FOR loop and dynamically creates a list and appears in the scrollPaneMC, but no scrollbars.

I am using a ScrollPane that I want users to be able to scroll by clicking andywhere inside it. I have set up the pane like this:
[Code]..
I go on to show a few different SWFs on the source movieclip. These SWFs are spaced vertically by about 80 pixels each inside the clip. The scroll dragging is working fine when you click on one of these SWFs, however, it does not scroll if you hit the vertical space in between items. Is there a way to allow the scroll drag to work no matter where inside the scrollpane (or movieclip) the user clicks? I would rather not have to fill the empty vertical spaces with some blank SWF, or make the others have a greater height.

I'm using a movieClip inside a ScrollPane to show a list of CheckBoxes. The amount of CheckBoxes shown is dynamic, it depends on a SQL query. After the query is done, I add as many CheckBoxes as rows in the result set. What I am trying to do is to access some methods I wrote in the MovieClip inside the ScrollPane to get the length of the CheckBoxes, check which ones are selected and the label they have (their label is also defined by the SQL query).
I've tried this
valueINeedToGet = Object(root).scrollPaneInstance.source.functionINeedToRun();
But it returns error #1006
How can I access the code inside the MovieClip inside the ScrollPane?

I'm a beginner actionscripter, so I hope you will take that into account when replying. The problem I am having is that a client has asked me to place a call to action button inside a textbox that scrolls. My idea was to create a movieclip containing the text and the button, then place that movieclip inside a scroll pane. I've been monkeying around with it all day and have made minimal headway. I'm not even sure of the best way to accomplish this.
If one of you learned actionscripters out there could point me in the right direction, perhaps I can find my own solution. The client wants me to use custom icons for the scrollbars, and as altering a scrollbar component seems like such a PIA, I'm trying to avoid using components.

note: all as3 is written in CS4 and compiled for flash 10.I have a parent movie that loads a separate standalone SWF movie. This standalone movie happens to use the ScrollPane component (fl.containers.ScrollPane), and it runs correctly when launched on it's own.When I attempt to have a Parent movie load the standalone SWF, i receive a run-time error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at fl.containers::ScrollPane/drawBackground()
at fl.containers::ScrollPane/draw()
at fl.core::UIComponent/callLaterDispatcher()
I understand that this error can be avoided by adding the ScrollPane component to the Parent Movie library. My question is why is this necessary? If the component is only used in the standalone SWF being loaded by the Loader class, why does the Parent movie require the component to be in the library as well?

I was wondering if anyone knew of a tutorial or working example involving a email flash form, which uses:a scrollpane - which houses an indefinite number of checkboxesan input field for emailn input field for name...and the form uses PHP.[Brief overview - I have a page that provides a listing of companies. There are several hundred, so I placed them in a scrollpane. Each company has a checkbox next to it. When a user selects a company - they can select more than one - types in there name and email address, the form should send the information associated with the checked boxes to the designated email address.]I'm able to put all the elements together, and get them working fine. However, I'm stuck at the form level - trying to retrieve the checkbox information, as well as determining which checkboxes are checked. I'm using this as a base example to work n particular, I'm having a problem calling a variable from the 1st frame of the swf from within the form movieclip, so that I can load that and pass it to email.

In my flash application, I've got multiple windows which use Scrollpanes. The scrollDrag property is set to true on these because I want that functionality. If I close (within my application) one of these 'windows' and open another, I seem to get a whole lot of this error showing up in my logs:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at fl.containers::ScrollPane/endDrag()Sometimes I get thousands of these, which I'm guessing is probably slowing my app down a bit, but otherwise is not causing a problem. Looking through the adobe code for scrollpane, endDrag is really simple:
protected function endDrag(event:MouseEvent):void {
stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, doDrag);
}
The stage var is the only thing that could be null here.The only thing I can think to do is set scrollDrag=false before the window in my application closes so that nothing is listening for the event

I'm trying to create a pseudo OS within flash. It's for a website. Essentially there will be "files" to click that that open up draggable windows, just like a mac/pc/linux etc GUI. For example; there could be files for "about, gallery, info, contact" or whatever else that when clicked would open up scrollable/draggable/closeable windows with the content in them.
I'm having serious problems finding any documentation or tutorials on this, even though I'm pretty sure this kind of thing has been used often. My main hang up right now is draggable scrollpanes. Is it possible to do? I can't seem to figure it out.
I'm really stuck on the draggable scrollpanes I have movie clips in place of the scroll panes right now. I wasn't sure on how to actually open the movie clips with a button press so I just placed the two movie clips off the stage, and when one of the two buttons on the stage is pressed, it moves one of the clips onto the stage (thats a ghetto way of doing it, but I'm not sure on how to do it a better way). The clips are draggable with transparency and levels so whatever your dragging becomes slightly transparent and moves to the top level. Aside from my scrollpane problem, I also have no idea how to get the clips to close or move off the stage...

I have the content of a scrollpane that, when clicked, show a tooltip movieclip with attachMovieClip; the problem is that the attached movie clip, for the first rows, goes under the border of the ScrollPane and is partially invisible.
Is there a way to solve this problem (without changing the position of the attached movie clip?)

I googled this online, and almost all of them start with dragging the scrollpane from the component toolbar.
I don't like the way this scrollpane looks. How to change the color, shapes, etc. Can I do this through altering the code, or do I need to start from scratch?

I know that you can access the scrollpane's content by writing: scrollPane.content...But how can I access the scroller - with that I mean the thumb and up & down arrows...I would like to do something like this for example:
Code:
scrollPane.scroller.buttonMode = true;

for (i=0; i<policy.length; i++) {
newOpt = Stocklist_MC.attachMovie('Option', 'Option'+i, i);
I've got a ScrollPane on the root stage. This loads a MC called 'Stocklist_MC' (this also has a linkage/export name of 'Stocklist_MC'). When I try to use '.attachMovie' to the movieclip (Stocklist_MC) inside the ScrollPane nothing appears. All the AS is on frame 1 of root. Everything works when I use '.attachMovie' with _root. for (i=0; i<policy.length; i++) { newOpt = _root.attachMovie('Option', 'Option'+i, i); Also, if I drag Stocklist_MC to the stage I get everything working but list gets cut off at bottom, which is the reason why I need it in a scrollPane.
