Is it possible to add event-based effects to Flex components (showEffect, hideEffect, addedEffect,...)? We can register them in MXML declaration
<s:TitleWindow showEffect="{myShowEffect}"/>
Can i do the same in AS code (like setStyle() for styles)?

I'm trying to setup a DataGrid that contains a column of combo boxes. The values of the combo boxes are defined by data specific to that row. I cannot get this to work though, I'm asking for a solution to this, either fixing what I have below or a recommendation on a different way.One of the columns of my DataGrid has an object derived from a ComboBox for an ItemEditor. The itemEditor is set like this:
<mx:DataGridColumn editorDataField="selectedItem" dataField="type" editable="true" >
<mx:itemEditor>
<mx:Component>

Does Flash support Joystick based events? How about things like a usb steering wheel?
View 3 RepliesMy app has buttons that users press to insert predefined strings into a textarea. I'm now making it load in the button values dynamically so users can define their own buttons.I'm using a buttons.txt which contains a different label on each line (button1, button2,button3 etc). I loop through the text file and add the buttons to a group. This all works, but now the hard part. How can I assign an eventlistener to these buttons so that they output text to the screen?
protected function view1_viewActivateHandler(event:ViewNavigatorEvent):void
{
var path:File = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath("buttons.txt");

I have a Group on my View, and i'm trying to fill it with some collor and add an mouse event on it, all dynamicaly.the problem is, when i add the mouse event, the group simply turns invisible again. It still exists on the view and responds normally to the mouse event, but i cant see it.here's an code example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" title="HomeView" creationComplete="onCreationComplete()" >[code]......
without the mouse event, the group is visible, but it vanishes when i try to add it. i've tried with other events, like the ENTER_FRAME Event and it works normaly, but all the mouse events that i tried turn the Group invisible.i've actually solved my problem using the opaqueBackground property, the Group don't vanish when i add the event this whay. But now i'm curious about the reason of this behavior.
I'm trying to create a form that based on the users input would determine how many forms to generate dynamically. I have a base state with a combo box that contains 1-4. Bases on the users selection I would like to have the next state generate the number of forms. So if you user selects 2 and click next - 2 copies of the form would be display.
I'm just wondering if this is possible how i would go about doing this or if any one knows of any examples?
I'm looking for a effects library for flex or flash, I used one in a project but I cant remember the name. It doesnt matter if it's not free or open-source.
View 2 RepliesI'd been working on a side-scrolling shooter game in AS2 for a while and it was going great, but for whatever reason, it scrolls all choppy and the framerate is inconsistent on faster machines. I would have expected the opposite, but it is what is is, I guess. So I'm trying to finally learn AS3, and I found some tutorials that got me started towards remaking what I had, but now I'm stuck.I'm trying to make one of those rotating cannons that shoots projectiles towards the mouse cursor. I have the rotation part working, but I'm having trouble with attaching the projectiles to the stage with enterFrame actions on them.I feel like I'm pretty close to a solution, but I don't understand where to put the functions to move the clips to make them work properly. In AS2, I just put something like this on the cannon clip:
Code:
bullet = _root.attachMovie("bullet", "bullet"+_root.bullets, _root.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:nozzledot.pointx, _y:nozzledot.pointy});

ive built it based off of an example we made in class last year that i had lying around..
as you can see here everything works fine.
The only problem is I want to add some roll over effects to the thumbnail but im not sure how to go about this as they are all dynamically added to the stage..
The way I tried was adding an event listener to each thumb via the function that adds the thumbs to the stage (see the "createThumbs()" function below). The event listener works fine and calls to the function i assigned to it ("thumbRoll") but im not sure what to put in this function to effect the thumb that is moused over as im unable to access "btn_thumb" from "thumbRoll".
ps. sorry if the code is a bit messy, bit of an experiment for me to get everything working..

View 3 RepliesI have built a class based on a calendar script found here on this forum. I have modified the script to work in a class and expanded on the calendar by checking each day of the month against a database to see if there are events on that day. (if there is an event, the day movie clip goes to another frame to highlight said day)Everything works great.. at first glance. The first time the calendar loads, all the days are properly in place and the Event.ADDED_TO_STAGES runs correctly, highlighting the dates with events.
The problem occurs when the user changes the month. Everything again works the way it should except for the Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE. This event only runs for each day the first time the calendar is loaded.
Code:
package classes {
//import necessary classes
import flash.events.*;
import flash.display.MovieClip;

_root['room'+i+'a'].onRollOver = function(){
trace("room" +i+ " was crossed over");

View 1 RepliesI want to make a movieclip invisible initially but i dont want to set it manually within the properties in flash because i cant then see it on the scene.i could add some code like so:
MC Frame one.
this.onClipEvent(load)

this._alpha = 0;
}
but I cannot. How can i set the MC _alpha to 0 for all instances without adding it manually to each instance or setting it in the properties?
edit: or creating a class for it just to set the alpha.
I am loading an external SWF using the Loader class, and adding it to the stage with addChild.When trying to add a mouse click event listener to the MovieClip, using addEventListener, nothing happens, the event never fires.Is there a specific way to add listeners to externally loaded movie clips?My code looks somewhat like this:
var target:MovieClip = assets["screensaver"] as MovieClip;
target.root.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickScreenSaver, true);
addChild(target);
The target shows up on the display, but the CLICK event is completely ignored.

What I am trying to achieve is to have it load from a different text file based on its instance name.

I am in the process of writing a scrolling image viewer that dynamically updates from an xml file. I have written the scroll function (with a lot of help from Kirupa and other sources), and the pictures are updating beautifully, but when it comes to adding the function for the buttons I am encountering an unusual error.
Using the following code:
Code:
initButtons=function(){
for (var i in btnArray) {
var btn:MovieClip = btnArray[i];

from this site results in the doClick function being called for each of the buttons in the btn array at runtime, and then not working afterwards.
I'm trying to build a text input field with a fixed width, multiline. So when you type and the input is more than the available space, the field increases in height... similar behavior to blogs and other html forms recently.
I was hoping there was some easy method or property to make this change, but if not, then does the text input throw some event when the text exceeds the width?
for each (var link:XML in settingsXML.links.link) {
menuItem = new MenuItem();
menuItem.menuLabel.text = link.@name;
