View 2 RepliesI am writing a flex application and I have two Spark TextAreas. I want to create an EventListener so that when the user clicks on a text area, the text inside the TextArea is cleared:
this.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN, onFocusIn);
private function onFocusIn(ev:FocusEvent):void {
if (this._showsCaption) {
[Code]....
Currently I can implement this with a Spark TextInput, but when I click on the TextArea, the focusIn event never fires and the onFocusIn() handler is never called.
How do I detect the enter key being pressed on my button and fire the click event handler? (For example on a TextInput field there is an 'enter' event).

In Flex, is it possible to listen to all event types of an object that's an IEventDispatcher? addEventListener's first parameter is the type, which is a string. In many cases the documentation is not clear what event type it fires. I'd like to attach a generic listener to inspect the events.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to have flash listen for a loadClip event when a button mc called portfoliob is released. When the loadClip event is triggered I'd like flash to then create another MC called container2 and load a .swf called pmenu. I understand the logic behind it but for the life of me I can not get it to work.

I'm having the following problem: I've implemented a custom headRenderer for my DataGridColumn. The idea is to have a dropdown menu when clicked on the column header. The problem is I don't know how to add a listener or pass a variable to the renderer since the renderer class is instantiated by the ClassFactory.
The renderer class:

If I plan to implement 100 objects on stage to be listen to mouse and keyboard input, is using "function" call responsive enough? How good does eventlistner work?
View 2 RepliesRecently I am working with Spark DataGrid. Before I was using AdvancedDataGrid. In that I was capturing itemDoubleClick event. But I am not able to find such a event in SparkdataGrid. So I want to capture double click event on single row of DataGrid. Some people told that, I have to use my custom ItemRenderer to do that. But is there any way to capture itemDoubleClick event in Spark DataGrid without creating custom ItemRenderer ???
View 1 RepliesI am trying to learn JavaScript and I am wondering whether JavaScript has a event listener just like ActionScript's ENTER_FRAME. Basically, I want this event listener to listen "all the time" not just wait for any particular instance (mouse click, keyboard event) of event.
View 3 RepliesI know the difference between the two, but I never felt the need to use the bubbling feature. If I want to listen to an event from a deeply nested children, I always use the capture phase. Could someone explain to me why I should rather use bubbling, its advantages, and maybe show me a situation in which bubbling would be the only solution?

Anyone missed the old simple method for skinning a simple button?
CODE:
The problem im having is that, this method of creating a simple button with skin is being phased out : Infact it is no longer supported in flex 4.5 mobile projects.
So the question: Is there a simple way to perform this, with spark buttons (which is suppose to be the new way to go). As simple as possible.
Basically i only need a button with 2 images : down/over & up. And i want to keep the code as simple as possible : The new skinning methods, seems to really adds way too much lines for something that used to be as simple as the example above.
I am trying to add different icon on different buttons. I have my skin file ready but not sure if I have to create different skin class for different button. It sounds inefficient.
<s:Button id="pass"
width="110"
height="35"

Is it possible? Or do I need to use Skin architecture? I can't found the property border color, so I think I need to create a entire skin customized? Or are there the property accessible by css?
View 2 RepliesI have a skin class whose host component is a Toggle Button. I need to be able to add a border around it but only on the top, left, and right sides, As I understand it you have to the: <s:Line> component. So I added:
<s:Line left="0" top="0" right="0">
<s:stroke>
<s:LinearGradientStroke rotation="180" weight="2" caps="square">[code].....
This worked for the top line , But I can't seem to get the left and right lines. I tried: this for the left side line, but it did not work (no line showed up):
<s:Line left="0" top="0">
<s:stroke>
<s:LinearGradientStroke rotation="90" weight="2" caps="square">[code]....
How can I achieve the 3 Lines around the button?
i have the following code:

how can i change the height of the buttons in this buttonbar?? is it possible without extra skin class?

View 2 RepliesI have two buttons that listeners for the same event that have identical instance names?For example, I have two buttons which have the same instance name: imageOne.Can those identical buttons listen for the same event? I tried, but only one button responds to the event listener .why do I need two buttons with the same instance name that listens for the same event?because I have a looping scrolling panel of thumbnails, and when you have scrolling panels, we all have duplicate panels inside for looping purposes...so since I have to have two identical panels grouped together to do the loop, I have multiple buttons with the same instance name.and these buttons listen for events...now of course I can rename the other half of the identical buttons with different instance nams, but a problem arises when i want to use an if statement to check to see if that image is already loaded.for example, say I image1 is already loaded, and someone clicks identical thumbnail that has a different instance name, ti would be too complex to write an if statemen to determine whats loaded.
View 4 RepliesI know there's been quite a few posts about events, but I've run into a problem that I haven't really encountered before, and I've kind of confused myself with all the talk of "bubbles" and "capture" and various complexities of creating custom events, etc...Anyway, I'm trying to figure out how to dispatch a global broadcast style of event.1) If I have a custom class that resides in the Display List (the DispatcherClass), how do I set up this class to broadcast a "global" event?Actionscript Code:1b) If I have another custom class that also resides in the Display List (but in a completely unrelated heirarchy), how do I get this ListenerClass to "hear" the event WITHOUT explicitly referencing the instance of the DispatcherClass like so:
Actionscript Code:DispatcherClassInstance.addEventListener("DispatcherClassEvent", handler, false, 0, true);Is this even possible?2) What if the DispatcherClass DOES NOT reside in the DisplayList?Is it possible to dispatch a "global" style event since there is nothing to "bubble" up through?2b) How would I get a ListenerClass, maybe on the DisplayList, maybe not, to "hear" this event?
