The problem I'm having is trying to figure out a way so that the "data2" will fill the text field "hint_txt" on ROLL_OVER of that items name in the list.I've tried to placing an event listener into the function that populates the combo box .this populates the combo box label and data with the Loaded XML File. This works
function changeHandler(ev:Event):void { menuText_mc.heading1_txt.text = ev.currentTarget.selectedItem.label;[code]......
Is it possible to set a tooltip just on the header of a spark datagrid. I do not want any tooltips on the data - just the header. I have played with mouse over and this sort of looks like it might work. This seems a bit of a hack to me though.
I have a Spark Component (a Group) which doesn't behave as wanted.The tooltip is only shown when the component is enabled=true which the following example shows:
I need the tooltip above each item to always show the tootip. I tried changing the alfa from 0 to 100 which doesnt work, and also I saw where the depth is set way up so not sure if that will affect them as it turns or not.
When the combo box is changed it will add items to another combo box, i.e if africa is chosen, all the countries in africa will be listed in the second combo box.
At the moment i am manually adding in all the countries, _root.combo1.addItem("Label", "Data");
for 60 countries that would be messy code, is there a way to do it in an array cause my advanced actionsript isnt that good. But i will need to be able to get the data of a country out later ....
I've set up a combo box that moves a large image to a specific size and position on screen when a combo box item is selected. It works fine but the image can also be moved manually by dragging and moved and scaled by pressing a 'fullscreen' button. The problem is that if I set the image to a particualr position by choosing 'Position 1' from the combo box then move and scale the image, when I choose 'Position 1' again nothing happens. This is clearly because I have set the combo box event handler to 'on (change)' and reselecting the same item doesn't count as a change to the combo box.
How can I set the combo box so that it runs a function even if the same item is selected - I can't see any obvious event handler that activates when any item is selected in the combo box - even on(close) doesn't work because the combo box seemingly still doesn't count this as a valid selection. I can post code if you need to see something - it is very simple, but I can't get this working.
i am trying to put data in to combo box from php page using http service .there are 2 data records in the php page but instead of displaying data it displays [object object] [object object] in the combo box list
here is the mxml code
@namespace s "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"; @namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx";
I have a screen which is essentially an address screen. Amongst other fields. there are two fields on the screen which are used to enter the region of the user. One is a combo box, the other is a plain text field.
After the user selects their country from a drop down list, if that country has a list of regions associated with it, a Combobox is populated and displayed, with the text field being hidden. If there are no regions associated with the country then the combobox is hidden and the text field is displayed:
I am using the combobox to make a drop down list. I want to make the text of one of the items in the list bold. I have searched and found how to set the whole list bold but cant find a way to set it on a item by item basis.
the code below is able to show icons in the option items,but when i select an item from the option,the icon does not appear in the selected item.How do I make that icon appear inside selected item?
PHP Code: var blue:Sprite = new blue_mc(); var yellow:Sprite = new yellow_mc();
bit stuck on something here and hoping that someone will be able to answer this question. i have a gallery generated via xml - i have three text fields on the stage that display the title and description of the thumbnail item.
[Code]...
not quite sure of the best/easiest way is to do it - call from the library and attach to mouse or something along those lines?
I have two spark lists and want to drag items from one list to the other. When im dragging an item and over the other list item, i want the target item to change the background coloer.Basically instead of showing the black line indicating that I will drop between elements, I want to see the target item highlight.
How do I wordwrap in a spark list w/ an itemrenderer? This posting at[URL] works 100% but when I try to set a separate item renderer, I can't get the word wrapping...instead, I get an ugly horizontal scroll bar. HEre is my mxml:
I've been playing with s:ComboBox and generally like them a lot. One detail is driving me nuts though - most likely due to my lack of knowledge in the subject - is that if I try to add a new item to my dataprovider in a changeHandler (registered to the change event) the text for the ComboBox textInput disappears - although the item addition works perfectly. Interestingly enough the same operation works fine if it gets called by clicking on a button, i.e. post the change event has been processed, and the text does not disappear.[code]if you take out the change handler you will see that adding a new item and then clicking on the button keeps the new element in the textInput while adding the item to the data provider, which does not happen if you just enter a new item and press enter.
I have a Flex Spark List (well it's a Tree to be precise but it renders as a list) and as I'm scrolling through it I want to provide information about the item that is currently at the top of the list in context to the viewport. So this could be the 100th item in the list depending on how far you've scrolled down.
I'm trying to make a simple flash application providing interface for taking tests as a high school assignment. One of the requirements is to use an XML file as data source.Now, having a List component bound to the XML file with questions consisting of data such as question body, question type (ie. single choice, multiple choice, open, image etc.) and possible answers (where applicable), I was wondering if I could add some additional data (and what is the best possible way to do so) to each question upon its transfer to the List component.
I am trying to achieve two main goals with this: firstly, to mark the questions to which an answer has already been given, like with such code in ItemRenderer class: <s:Label color="{data.color}" text="{data.label}"/> Where data.color would be set whenever the user gives an answer to a question. Secondly, while at it, I thought of such possibility as a great way to store answers given to particular questions. In this case, the Class of the answer object would have been Object, since there has to be many type of questions (where the answer could also be a Bitmap for example).
Is there a way to change the space between a spark form item and its content (textinput, combobox)? I already set to 0 the "gap" property of the form, but still there is a lot of vertical space left between the form inputs.
I have a list with custom item renderers. What I would like is when one of the list items is selected to position another control OUTSIDE the list to the same vertical position as the selected item.
I have a regular spark list which is sorted correctly when no item renderer is used. However, when the following item renderer is used, the list shuffles and displays items from previous instances of the list.[code]
I am trying to create a dropdown that can display both past state and possible state for a customer.But I want to make add a separator between past and possible state.Actually to do that I add an item like "-----" on the dataprovider.But the look and feel is not good and this item may be selected.My ideal approach is something like that:
I'm setting selected element in s:List component with Actionscript, it works, but List doesn't scroll to selected item -- need to scroll with scrollbar or mouse. Is it possible to auto-scroll to selected item
I have a List component using multiple item renderers determined by the itemRendererFunction. When I set the data the first time, it works as expected. Then, when I set the data a second time with new data, it doesn't call the itemRendererFunction and tries to reuse the current renderers even though they don't match the data.Once I scroll, the function is called and the correct renderers are used. I tried calling invalidateDisplayList and such prior to setting the data, but that didn't fix the problem.
My stakeholder has a request to remove the currently selected item from the DropDownList control(s) in the application. For example a drop down with [item1, item2, item3, item4] if item2 is selected then the only items in the drop down will be [item1, item3, item4]
I have an issue with Spark Lists whereby I am trying to ensure that an item is always selected and ensure that the GUI displays this to the user.
The application (full code below) creates a List, a Label and a Button. The Label states what is selected in the List. The button removes the selected item. Changing the selection, updates the text in the Label. Important: The List has "requireSelection" set to true to ensure that an item is always selected.
If I select the first item in the List, the selection is correctly reflected in the label. Clicking "Remove" removes the item and the next item is selected. This is all working correctly.[code]...
In a spark list I could use the change event to find out which item has been selected or deselected. The dispatched IndexChangeEvent object has the properties newIndex and oldIndex holding this information.
But with multiple selection allowed this doesn't work anymore because newIndex and oldIndex could refer to indices of still selected elements.
A solution would be to copy the selectedIndices vector to another variable and compare this variable with selectedIndices after a change in selection, but this seems to be somewhat complex.
Does anyone know if there is an easy way two get the index/item a user is deselecting while other elements are still selected?
I change an item in Spark List. The item then moves to a different index in the list since I keep the List's dataProvider sorted. However, the selectedIndex stays where the item used to be. I want the List's selectedIndex to still be on the item that changed.
I have a spark datagrid on a mobile application, I set the
interactionMode="touch"
and the dataGrid scrolling is good, I got some problems adding a selectionChange eventListener to it, because scrolling the dataGrid will automatically change the selection and instead simply scrolling it, the function binded will start...
How can I add the touch dalay before select the index, so if I scroll the grid the selection won't change, and it change only if I press the item without scrolling?
