I am using a s:TextInput in Flex 4.5. It shows it's prompt text if the underlying text value is null or empty String. Does anybody know if I can make either don't show the prompt on empty String or even show a different prompt?

Here is my code:
<mx:ComboBox prompt="" editable="true" dataProvider="{tableSelector.list}"/>
When this code executes, flex just sets the selectedIndex to 0 and displays the first item in the dataProvider instead of leaving the text and prompt as the empty string "". How do I get around this? I need the text property to be "" unless the user selects another item in the combobox.
This is what i have:
Main.mxml:
<fx:Style source="Main.css"/>
<s:TextInput x="72" y="95" focusColor="#CECB02" prompt="E-mail: "
skinClass="components.TextInputSkin"/>

So, the "promptDisplay" in a computer(online) that does not have "Acens.ttf" installed shows the predefined one, but the inputed text is showed correctly with the embeded font!
Is there a static property in Action similar to that in the String object in .net to check if a string is empty, that is String.Empty.
View 2 RepliesI have a form with a TextInput that has a custom Validator. I call the Validator logic and handle the result programmatically. This all works fine, except for one problem. The TextInput gets highlighted when it is invalid, but the toolTip that contains the errorMsg does not display until I roll the mouse cursor over the TextInput. Is there anyway to get the toolTip to show programmatically?

View 2 RepliesI have a object,and I want to add it into mouse over and mouse out event,when mouse over the object,it will show a prompt information beyond the object by using a window or dialog box,when the mouse out of the object,the prompt will disappear.
My question is how to show prompt information beyond the object by using actionscript3? Is there any model? An example is better.
I have quite some experience with Flex and I am just starting to write my first AIR application and would like to use as much Spark as possible here. So I started withe a simple Hello World application:

Unfortunately this simple example shows no child components and even none of the initialize handlers is triggered. However as soon as I change the root tag to mx:WindowedApplication everything behaves as expected: The label and the button are shown and the console shows the output of the two trace statements.
I know only basic html and no javascript. I just found this embed code somewhere and It works good except It won't prompt the user to update if user has lower version of flash!The second piece of code is some code i use for regular embedding. This version updates user's flash content if needed.I have tried to incorporate those two to make the first version have the update function but I'm sitting for hours at my comp and can't figure it out since my html and java knowledge is very poor.[code]

In my flex 4 project I am using some Spark TextInput components. It doesn't show copy and paste in the right click menu by default. The user needs to copy some text and paste into it. How can we enable this?
View 2 RepliesMy question concerns the following tutorial I've been working through:Building a Flex Type-Ahead Text Input
I was successful in enabling a search of available terms using the characters entered in the input, but only irrespective of the location of the characters in the terms. However, I am wondering how one might have the characters match only the beginning of the terms.
For example, suppose I enter the string "app" into the text input. How can I get only "apple" and not, for instance, "pineapple" to appear as an option?
I might as well be a damned newbie that's fer sure. I'm trying to fill one simple value object class using this code.

View 3 RepliesI got a Problem with my DateChooser. When clicking the control directly it highlights the date as it should. When selecting the date programmatically it won't show.
var date:Date = notification.getBody() as Date;
_view.dcMiniCalendar.selectedDate = date;
trace tells me, that date and _view.dcMiniCalendar.selectedDate carry the correct values. I already tried to use _view.dcMiniCalendar.invalidateDisplayList() (and some other invalidate functions as well) but neither with nor without them I get that date to be shown selected in the control.
Can we run command prompt commands (like copy, rename etc) from an AIR or flex application?I thought of creating a bat file and running it using fscommand, but that does`nt serve my purpose.

Code 2 assume that main = main + sub even if it doesn't exist outside the if statement, that's obvious since sub is an empty string.

When using a dropdownlist in flex I'd like to know the exact index value when the prompt is initialized in it.
View 1 RepliesI have a dropdownlist of "Select an employee" which is optional. I need it to have "No one" at the top so that user can change back to NoOne if he' ve already chosen "John Someone".
My question is how to keep the prompt item, or add a dummy item at -1 without changing the dataprovider (I really hate adding "No one" to the original employeeList dataprovider)

I am a Flex newbie and I am testing a little application that simulates a cart. (It is based on a nice sample by Farata Systems' Yakov Fain).Note: I am using the beta of Flash Builder 4 to code the application.Here you have a link to the screenshot:Screenshot(Sorry I can't insert the image of the screenshot right here since stackoverflow doesn't allow new users to use image tags.)The application is very simple. You type a product in the TextInput control and then click on the "Add to cart" button to add it to the "cart" which is represented by the TextArea at the bottom.
That works ok.The problem is that I also want the user to be able to keep adding items to the cart without having to click on the "Add to cart" button. So, I added code to handle the enter event of the Textput by calling the same handler function triggered by the "Add to cart" Click event.If you type some content and then click the "Add to cart" button, the TextInput control receives the focus and the cursor, so you can type again.
However, if you hit enter, instead of clicking the button, the TextInput control keeps focused and you can see the cursor beam, but you can not enter text until you click elsewhere and come back to the control.Below you can see the relevant part of the code, with the definition of the component that groups the three controls at the top (Label, TextInput, Button).
