Flex :: Apply Focus_out Event To More Than Just Selected Component?

Apr 14, 2011

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

Flash - FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT Event's RelatedObject Always Null?

Apr 15, 2011

I'm trying to code a drop-down control in as3, where clicking on the control's 'top-text' (a Sprite) causes a box to appear (another Sprite). The box contains a list of all items that may be selected. When 'item1' is selected the box closes and item1-text becomes the control's top-text. And so on.I also want the box to automatically close when the control loses focus, i.e. when the user clicks anywhere else on the flash movie. For this, I add an event listener on the box for FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT.

The thing is, I want different processing to take place depending on the FocusEvent's relatedObject. To be more precise I want to do something more than just closing in the specific case where relatedObject is a child of the drop-down control itself. And just close it if not.My problem is that the relatedObject property is always coming up null no matter what gains focus. Furthermore the isRelatedObjectInaccessible property is always false so (according to the documentation) it is not a security related problem.

Actionscript :: Apply Animation To UI Component In Flex

Mar 25, 2011

I have two panels that have a click event on them. However, both call the same function for some reason. When I have only one panel visible the animation works correctly. However if I add another to the stage on the click event both panels animate at the same time. I just dont get what I'm doing wrong. My function is looking for only the current target but apparently I must not be doing that correctly because it's animating both panels and not just the panel the I clicked. My expected result is to animate only the clicked panel.

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

Sep 11, 2010

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?

<mx:Tile direction="horizontal">
<mx:Box>
<mx:Label text="Year" fontWeight="bold"/>

Flex :: Propagating Event From A Built-in Component To A Custom Event?

Jan 27, 2012

I am trying to understand event propagation in Flex framework and have a following doubt on it:

Scenario: I have a built-in component DropDownList on change of which I want to create a custom event refreshPreview and want to propagate it to a custom component PictureComponent.

In the custom component's mxml, I have added the Metadata directive as follows to register a refreshPreview event with the compiler

<fx:Metadata>
[Event(name="refreshPreview", type="flash.events.Event")]
</fx:Metadata>

Layout Details: In my main mxml application I have laid out DropDownList and the custom component such that both are siblings (i.e. have a common indirect parent)
e.g.

<s:Group id="contentGroup">
<s:Group id="formGroup">
<s:Form x="11"

[Code]....

I am seeing that the refreshPreview event is not getting propagated to the custom component.

I doubt this is because the built-in component is a sibling of the target (where the event got generated) and not a parent. how to make refreshPreview event propagate to custom component?

Actionscript 3 :: Flex 4 Disptaching Custom Event From Custom Component (why Flex Converting Custom Event To Mouseevent)?

Mar 2, 2012

This is NOT duplicate of my earlier post (its is slightly different)But this is similar issue with similar error but its not the same error The error I am getting now is below while dispatching the custom event from my custom component

TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert events::MapEvent@a74ab51 to flash.events.MouseEvent.
dispatchEvent(new MapEvent(MapEvent.CLICKED_ON_MAP));

Note: The error in my earlier post is giving below error message

Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@81ecb79 to com.events.ShopEvent

The difference here are two things, the earlier error is while converting flash event to custom event and now this one is while converting custom event to flash event and secondly, I have no clue why it is trying to convert to the mouseevent where I am just dispatching my custom event with proper listeners.

This is my custome event

Flex :: Swfloader Component Not Firing Complete Event?

Mar 25, 2010

enter code hereBeen really frustrating just trying to load a swf from a swfloader in Flex and then accessing it's content. I'm sure once I figure out how to do it once then it'll be fine, but I've gone thorugh a bunch of tutorials and somethings not right. Here's my flex code:and the as code:

public function initHeaderSwf():void
{
trace("INITIATIED");[code]........

Here's the problem: The swf loads, there is no problem there.i see it in my compiled swf. but the complete event doesn't fire. CreationComplete will fire, and then I try, after that, to make a event listener for loading the actual swf, that doesn't fire.I've tried it a variety of different ways with no luck.All I am trying to do is change a text field in the loaded swf.I imagine this might be a problem with the sequence of things loading or something like that, but not sure.

Flex :: 4 - Component Move Event Doesn't Work

Flex 3 :: Determine If An Event Target Is Descendant Of Component

Nov 19, 2010

I have a custom component with a couple of text input fields (among other things) that is used as the row components in a tree. I have had to write my own drag and drop handling, and have almost finished the start handler (which I did last), using mouseDown as the event to kick if off.It basically works, but when the tree is expanded enough so that a scroll bar shows, using the scroll bar drags a row of the tree at the same time ! Not the desired behaviour.Looking in the debugger, I can see that when a row of the tree is dragged the currentTarget is the tree itself, and the target is the textInput component. Looking at the parents of that component I can see my custom component (that contains the textInput) a couple of levels up.My question is, is there an easy way to determine if this target is descended from my component, so that I can initiate a drag only if that is the case ? event.target is doesn't work by the way.

Flex :: Listening An Event In Main.mxml While In A Component?

Mar 9, 2011

I have an event, which I have dispatched in my main.mxml:

var evt:UserEvent = new UserEvent(UserEvent.USERINFORMATION);
evt.userVO = storeObject;
this.dispatchEvent(evt);

I can listen for it while in my navigation.mxml file, by using

this.parentApplication.addEventListener(UserEvent.USERINFORMATION, onInfo);

But in other component, I can not listen for it, even trying the same as I did in navigation.mxml.

tracing it back gives me an undefined.

the second component is in a viewstack in navigation.
