View 4 Replies It might be something simple I'm doing wrong.I have an array populated by XML in a function by doing the following inside the function:
first_special.addItem({label: xmlMenuFile.item.headers[i],data:
xmlMenuFile.item.descriptions[i],data2: xmlMenuFile.item.hints[i]});
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]......
I have two combo boxes. The first combo box's data is added through an XMLConnector object, the second combo box, I would like to populate through an on (change) event in the first combo box. The items in the second combo box would relate to the selection made in the first combo box.
I have attempted the following within the Actions for the first combo box:
on(change) {
switch(this.value) {
case "value1":
comboBox2.addItem({Label:"Label",Data:"Data"});
break;
} // end switch
} // end event
which is not working.
should an event be dispatched by comboBox1 and a listener be attached to comboBox2? I can't find any examples of this on the internet.. but i might be using the wrong search terms.
I started out with Swish, then I moved on to Flash8. I have quickly realized that it's a lot more difficult to achieve animation. Probably due to my lack of education with actionscript 2.0 and Flash8. Are there simple shortcuts to being able to do something as simple as making a photo spin around and explode? I haven't explored Flash8 much, but it doesn't seem as easy as Swish was. Of course, Swish seems obsolete compared to more advanced flash programs.
View 2 RepliesI realize this is not an official swishmax template but I was wondering how others learned to edit the swish 3.0 templates sold on template monster?
When I opened the swi file that came with the template it looked like this in a preview after TM assured me it would look the same as on their site.
When I contacted them again they said I needed to install the fonts that come with the template.
I was able to install some but for others I got a message that said :
"PFB files for type 1 fonts can't be installed directly. Please install the associated PFM file"
Where do I get the PMF file?
The last I have been using Flash was around 4 years ago and I have forgotten quite a bit. I remember I used SWISH Lite to create a typing effect (as a blinking cursor is typing a line of text one by one) and later i just could take this generator animation of my text and add it to my Macromedia Flash.I have installed the new SwishMax Trial, but I really don't recognize where I have to go in order to get this text effect generator running.

The animation load works as expected but the movie.stop() doesn't. What is wrong?

I'm working on a flash project, the designer designs UI by Flash CS5 and export the UI as swc file, I use Flex to control the data on the UI.
The designer uses shapes for the UI design, it is easy for him to define the colors and background, but I need this shapes more like a component like Combo box, so I can display the data on those shapes.
Is there any easy way to covert shapes to combo box or the similar operations?
I'm trying to insert some data into my DB from two Combo Boxes in Flash. I'm not quite sure how to go about it. I have no idea how to give the combo box a 'var' value like we do for a regular textfield. I have other pages where I have regular text fields that work fine as I can specify the 'var' value in the properties but not for combo boxes. I'm new to actionscript so please bear with me.
Action Script for my button:
Code:
on (press) {
loadVariablesNum
("http://localhost/Test/acadForm.asp",0, "post");

I have an editable mx:Combobox. I want to catch two events: When a user enters some text, or edits some text.When a user changes the selection (selects an item from the combo box).Is it possible? I have been using change event, but it is fired in both cases and I can't differentiate it. Is there a better way of doing this?
View 1 RepliesI need a way to disable the mouse over events for a combo box flash component as it is sitting inside a movieclip (A) on the stage, when I mouse over the movie clip I add a glow to a different mc (B) in the movie. Problem is is that the combo box is preventing the mouse over even in A to occur so B is not 'lighting up'.None of this works as it still appears to register a MouseOver event:
Code: Select allmyComboBox.focusEnabled = false;
myComboBox.textField.focusEnabled = false;
myComboBox.dropdown.focusEnabled = false;'s built in ones?

Im a bit of a novice with flash and have become stuck while trying to achieve what should be a simple task. I am trying to read in XML data and display the lables in a combo box and then display the corresponding data in a text field below. So that when for example "Vintage Red Wine" is selected in the combo box, the description for that wine will then be shown in the textfield below.Most of the code is functional. The combo box displays the information i want. The only thing that doesnt want to work is the text field which should show the wine decriptions.
Here is my XML data:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Wines>

I have a Flash Scene with a black background.Into that scene, I inserted a standard "Combobox" fromthe Flash component menu.As I want to have a black background in the Combobox, tooand also white text instead of black text, I wrote an action-script to customize my combobox (I gave it the instance name "splashesscroll").
Voil:
splashesscroll.setStyleProperty("arrow", 0xFFFFFF);
splashesscroll.setStyleProperty("background", 0x000000);
