Actionscript 2.0 :: V2 ComboBox Not Showing Current Selection?

May 5, 2008

I am building a website for an online store in Flash 8. I needed to use a dropdown menu for selecting the size of a clothing item, so I just used the default ComboBox component. I thought it was working fine, until I came across a strange bug (with the component, or my own code) where the ComboBox was not showing the current selected item.

The dropdown's list works, and shows all the options, but if you click on one, it doesn't get displayed as the current selection in its TextBox. The weird thing is that it still works fine, and I can access the data ok. If I use myComboBox.text I can access the current selections text, even though Nothing is being displayed.

Has anyone come across this before, and has any suggestions for what I am doing wrong.

A few details: Here is the actual code I am using to load the options into the ComboBox: Code: Select allvar my_cb:ComboBox = this.pages.product.size_comboBox;
my_cb.removeAll();

var sizesList:Object = productData[categoryID][productID]["sizes"];
for(var s in sizesList){
my_cb.addItem({data:s, label:sizesList[s]});
}
my_cb.redraw();

There are a number of other things happening the same time as its adding the items to the comboBox, e.g. loading images, creating movieClips, etc. Could loading this be causing the comboBox to not function properly.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make A Bounding Circle Instead Of A Bounding Box?

Nov 1, 2010

Is it possible to make a bounding circle instead of a bounding box?The objects should bounce INSIDE the circle.I have now a bounding box outside the circle, but the objects exceeds the circle at the corners.

I was thinking of making an array of Points on the edge of a circle and when the object is < or > then do something... but that would be a lots of if/else statements.

ActionScript 2.0 :: "Current Selection Can't Have Actions Applied To It" Error Message

May 20, 2005

I'm just trying to get started with very basic AS 2. I have two books, (Understanding Flash MX 2004 ActionScript 2, by Alex Michael, and Animation and Effects with Flash MX 2004) All of the very basic ActionScripts I've attempted from both books result in the "Current selection cannot have actions applied to it" error message.

Here's an example from Michael's book, which is for putting an event handler in a movie clip. I'm going to write all of the instructions just so you know I'm following them: 1. Create a new movie. 2. Draw a circle on the stage. 3. Select the circle and convert it to a symbol. 4. Name the symbol circle and select movie clip as the behavior. 5. Click OK. 6. Select the circle movie clip. 7. Open the Actions panel window. 8. Type in the following[code]...

I am following the Dress-Up game. I have created a button, dragged it into the Movie-Clip, and then went back to the scene, and selected it, right clicked, and clicked Actions."Current Selection" is selected, and it says "Current selection cannot have actions applied to it".

when I try to add this action to Scene 1, or Symbol Definitions it is a syntax error, and says extra characters as the reason.The script I am trying to use to make my Ball movable is;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Or Subtract "1" From The Current Selection?

May 6, 2009

Lets say I have 4 items on the stage item1_mc, item2_mc, etc...they're stacked vertically with a small space between them. I wish to cycle through these items with two keys, up and down respectively...how would I go about doing this?

My current idea is to create an array of these items and have each press of the key add or subtract "1" from the current selection...is this the correct method to pursue? Are there better options?

Flex :: Find The Bounding Rectangle Of A LinkElement In A TextFlow?

Aug 21, 2010

The link elements I'm talking about are single words, so they are not wrapped inside the container, which means that they should have a single bounding rectangle. But how do I go about finding this rectangle? I'm familiar with Flex3 but don't know enough about the new Text Layout Engine in Flex4.

IDE :: CS4 Jsfl - Fl.getDocumentDOM().selection Doesn't Retain The Selection Order

Nov 11, 2010

I never realized that fl.getDocumentDOM().selection doesn't retain the selection order... <sniff>. I was hoping to build relationships based on the order. I guess I took if for granted that tools like Maya and Max store the selection buffer in order of what was selected. I'm trying to avoid: Select Object, <Press 'Parent' Button>, Select Parent, <Press 'Parent' Button>

Actionscript 3 :: Flex - Selection In Flex Datagrid Does Not Pass The ValueObject To SelectionChangeHandler Function

Aug 11, 2011

I have a TabNavigator, and each tab is a Module. One of the modules is labelled Units and the full code of the module is posted in this post. There are several problems:

1) Forms are not populated with data from the datagrid selection.
2) Selecting a row and clicking delete gives the very-common error: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

A trace on the valueObject unit within the selectionChangeHandler function gives NULL. Why? Note: In other modules (other tabs of the TabNavigator), I have DropDownLists populated with units. This means that the valueObject Unit is defined in the other modules. However, valueObjects should be private to modules, and not shared.

Flex :: Disable Selection Of A Row?

Sep 16, 2011

I want to disable (and look disabled) some rows in a spark datagrid. I found this answer to stop selection which is greatIn flex, is there a way to capture and optionally cancel a row selection event in a DataGrid?

But I want in addition to show that the particular row is not selectable. Ideally I want to have some sort of overlay but I am not sure if that is possible. My alternative solution is to change the text color to grey for the unselectable row. Looking at the datagrid renders they all seem to be column based. I looked at skinning potentially (overriding the alternating color property) but this just sets the background property and not the text color.

Flex :: Set Focus And Selection On A TextField?

Jan 16, 2011

I am trying to programmatically pass focus to a newly created TextField, but for some reason setSelection and setFocus do not work. For example, see my test code below:

<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical" creationComplete="_init()">
<mx:Button click="{tf.setSelection(1,2)}" />[code]....

The only setSelection that does anything is the 0,3 one on MOUSE_DOWN. I assume this all has something to do with the text field receiving focus with the mouse click,

Flex :: Keep Selection After Refresh In Datagrid?

My datagrid is filled with data from an Oracle database. The datagrid refreshes after 1 min. After that, I lose the selected item. I want to avoid that. Consider that it's quite possible that there is new data after refresh, so the selected index may no longer appear in the datagrid after a refresh.
