Flex :: Access Items Selected In A Component From The Main App

How can I Access Items Selected in a Component from the Main App
I've got a component that has a listControl and a couple of RadioButtonGroups. I need to access the selected items in the main application. What's the best/simplest way to create and access the array of selected items. So, the user clicks the button to confirm the selections and then I need to access those selections in the main app. Is there a way I can use a public var to build the array? Another idea?

I am learning Adobe Air and want to get the current selected item in the spinner list I have created, however every time I use selectedItem I keep getting the same value over and over, no matter what option I select. I am trying to make an application for the Playbook and this this my SpinnerList code:
I'm having troubles getting selectedItems from a List Component in Flash CS4. Each time I select multiple selections the object that selectedItems returns seems to be populated with the last selected item in each of its instances. What is strange from the example I provide below is that once you've made your selection and click the label you can update another list with the correct selected values. But the output values are still traced incorrectly.
Code: import fl.data.DataProvider; import fl.controls.List; import fl.controls.Button; var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider(); dp.addItem({label:"Item 1"}); [Code] .....
How do I get "close" button to run runFunction() from within component to outside declaration? FxGlobals.topLevelApplication doesn't seem to be working for this.
I have placed TextFileds inside TileList Compontent. When i try to select the TextField it can't show the selected Textfield in the TileList items by default the TileList items are selected.Finally i need to select the TextFields.
Here is my code:
import fl.controls.TileList; import fl.data.DataProvider; import flash.display.Sprite; import flash.events.Event; function TileListExample() { var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider(); var totalEntries:uint = 3; var i:uint; for(i=0; i<totalEntries; i++) { dp.addItem( { source:getTf(), scaleContent:false}
I have 2 comboboxes which are dependent (country and state) and one submit button. Now what i want is after user submits the form it should display one alert box which should be like
selected country is "selected item" selected state is"selected item"
End-User searches for something and an ArrayCollection is returned with Result objects. This is displayed in a data grid.End-User selects a few of the search results and "moves" it over to another datagrid for use later.End-User does another search.
PROBLEM:Some of the search results might contain something the user already previously selected and moved over to the second datagrid. I want to remove these from the second search result.
It uses a focus_out event to detect if there is a change that needs to be committed. However I notice that a FOCUS_OUT event is only called if you click away from the textfield but inside the component. Is there any way I can listen for clicks outside the component from within the component?
addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT, onFocusOut); protected function onFocusOut(event:FocusEvent):void {[code]....
I have a TileList with thumbnail images. Under each thumbnail images I display the name of the image. I want to build rename functionality. So under the TileList is a "Rename selected image" button.
When this button is clicked, I would like to change the state of the itemRenderer component. The label underneath the image will change into a TextInput so that the user can type a new name. This is much like the Windows rename file functionality.
How can I access the itemRenderer of the selected image? How can I make it happen that it listens to the click event of the Rename button?[code]...
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'm using Flashbuilder 4. I have a Spark TextInput control, and I'm implementing a "Copy" button that will copy the selected text only from within this control to the clipboard (pretty much like the RMB Copy does).
I have two components. One is called "InsideComp" and one is called "OutsideComp". OutsideComp has InsideComp as one piece of its component, and in my main MXML file, I have embedded an instance of OutsideComp. How do I access a public variable of InsideComp within my main MXML file?In Actionscript, I could just do something like:OutsideComp.InsideComp.valToChange = 5; But I dont know how to do it in MXML. I know this is probably an easy question.
I would like to bind two components with out binding and which resides in different MXML.for eg: A.mxml has textinput and B.mxml has a combobox when choose one item in B.mxml selected item should be display in A.mxml textinput.
I have an app where a user puts in the required info into text inputs inside a titlewindow pop up and it sends the data entered into a datagrid. This first time when I call for the popup and enter info it works fine. Here's the problem: the next time I call the component pop up and click anywhere on the popup, including textInputs, the first the item in the array is automatically entered into the textInput where the user is supposed to enter the data themselves (BTW this textInput is also a autocomplete component).What I want is nothing to entered into textinput until the user inputs the data themselves. I've been tweaking with it for hours and im stumped. Here's the code: (this is main page)
In one area of my application I am creating a display that builds itself with actionscript during a loop. (in my actual app there are A LOT of nested children and my function might be looking for any of those children) In that AS I assign each item an ID, but when I try to access that item by it's id it fails. What gives? and how can I accomplish finding a UI component without having to go through knowing all of it's possible parents? [code]
But I get an error for "selected" property that i used in my checkBox. the error says : Access of possibly undefined property selected through a reference with static type TrashContainer_inlineComponent1.
i am have a small doubt in actionscript, i think its a silly one but banging head to solve it...f there are some items present on a panel and if i select one of them then how can i get the id or name of that particular selected item.For example if there are two accordions and if i select one, how can i get the id or name of that selected accordion.
ok so i know the general code to rename all selected library items
var items = fl.getDocumentDOM().library.getSelectedItems(); for (var i=0; i<items.length; i++){ var item = items[i]; item.name = "ABC_"+item.name; }
but this isn't good enough if the library items are in folders... because item.name returns the full path, but item.name sets the name. o.O as someone else points out here, [URL]
so when i try to rename Level1 to be ABC_Level1 if Level1's folder path is LIBRARY/FolderA/FolderB/Level1 i get this instead ABC_FolderA-FolderB-Level1
i could probably code some sort of string parser something like this,
I have a Listbox whith a ArrayCollection as datasource. I'm trying to remove the selected items from the ArrayCollection to update the list.Here is how I coded the remove function:
for each (var item:Item in theList.selectedItems) { theArrayCollection.removeItemAt(theArrayCollection .getItemIndex(item)); }
This works fine as long as the ArrayCollection is not sorted. When I apply a sort I get a RangeError from ListCollectionView.removeItemAt.
