Flex :: Hide A Vertical Scrollbar (without Disabling It)?
Sep 30, 2011
I have a list but want to hide the scrollbar but still keep the functionality. If I put verticalScrollPolicy="off", this disables scrolling via the mousewheel on windows (100% of my users use windows). How can I hide the scrollbar visually but keep the ability to scroll via the keyboard as well as the mousewheel?
I have a canvas lets say the size of it on the screen is 500x500. But I want the actual canvas size to be 1000x500 making the other half scrollable. How can I make a blank canvas with that specification?
I want to hide/remove the up and down arrows from the scrollbar - how can i do that? the scrollbar is to fat - the skin i am using is not that fat. How can i make the scrollbar thiner.
I'm working (for my sins) on a Flex 3.3 project, which unfortunately cannot be upgraded to a newer SDK version at this stage, and have hit an issue with the custom hierarchical tree class (subclassing mx.controls.Tree) we're using. Excuse the spelling; the previous developer had a fear of dictionaries...
public class HierachyTree extends Tree public function HierachyTree() {[code].....
I'm using a solution somewhere between these two methods (basically, implementing ITreeDataDescriptor) in order to add live text filtering to the component, and it's working so far:
public class HierachyTreeFilteredDataDescriptor implements ITreeDataDescriptor { private var filter:Function[code]..........
The issue is that (with tree:HierachyTree) neither tree.maxVerticalScrollPosition nor the protected property tree.verticalScrollBar .maxScrollPosition updates when the search string is changed.I've tried calling invalidateList() and invalidateDisplayList() on tree — and calling invalidateDisplayList() and invalidateSize() on tree.verticalScrollBar — to no avail.
I'm trying to do a vertical scrolling full screen flash website and for the life of me I can't find a scrollbar tutorial anywhere to make the site scroll in AS3 (when I'm talking about scrolling, I mean getting rid of the native window scrollbar and having flash control it's own custom scrollbar to go up and down through out the site).
I'd thought I'd mastered the full browser video when I wrote this [URL] I overlooked the fact that in IE7 there's a vertical scroll bar ruining the full browser look.[URL]
I'm looking for a good tutorial on coding a vertical scrollbar in AS2. I've googled it but only 3 results showed up and no code hints or tutorials were given. I've made a volume bar before in AS2 for a jukebox but I'm lost on the AS2 mechanics for a vert. scrollbar.
I've tried to use the "Simple Custom Scrollbar" tutorial to create a horizontal scrollbar instead of the vertical. I've changed the defenitions like this:
scrolling = function () { var scrollWidth:Number = scrollTrack._Width; var contentWidth:Number = contentMain._Width;
[Code]....
I put the "Width" instead of the "height", and "x" instead of "y". What I've got is when I push on the "scrollFace" button it slides but disappears immidietly, and the the image (which is "movieclip" as well) beneath the masked area freezes.
* In addition - I have to make this scrollbar move from right to left - Is there any additional defenitions I must concern?
This is my first time skinning a scrollbar and I ran into a issue. The button I click and hold to scroll up and down changes in size depending on how much content there is. Is there a way to keep the button from changing in size?
For example if my scrollbar button was a smiley face and I didn't want it to stretch.
I am changing my scrollbar components globally by creating an instance of my custom scrollbar and applying it via the style manager in my code.
I've been struggling with a horizontal scroll bar controlling vertical content movement. Can anyone help me? I'm using AS2 in CS3 and I have tried the search function....in vail..
I have 2 ScrollPane comps into which I dynamically load MC's which are large enough to trip the vertical scrollBar ..1st load all is fine .. 2nd load 1 SP has vertical scroll the other doesn't ..it doesn't matter what MC's are loaded ..
// IN Parent MC stop()var AudCh:SoundChannelvar AudFile:Stringvar Audio:Soundvar AudPos:Numbervar CRF_Array = new Array()var Domain:Stringvar [code]....
If you choose to try .. some instructions are in order ..
1. Next to begin
2. Matching Source Document = "The CRF is the source document"
3. 2 errors = initals and date on bottom of CRF sheet ..
How can I display the vertical scrollbar in an .fla that is taller than the browser window?'ve created a file that loads thumbs from an .XML file and displays them in rows. You guys taught me how to do that and it works greatThe stage will be larger than a typical browser window and extends below the botom of the users' screen. When I test the file (in the environment) and when I publish it to HTML, no vertical scroll buttons are visible. The thumbs seem to be displayed properly except for the fact that the rows of thumbs go beyond the bottom of the screen and there is no way to scroll down to see all of them.When I publish just the .fla and manually embed it into an HTML page in Dreamweaver, the vertical scrollbar appears and works as expected.
1. I've downloaded the Source for MX included in the "Hide/View the Scrollbar Component" page of It simply doesn't work when I open the file and publish it. I'm using Flash MX 2004, ... has anyone experienced the same problem and solved it?2. I've been able to set the scroll visibility with an external dynamic text using several procedures. One of them is:
SB1.setScrollTarget(_root.Texto1); if (Texto1.maxscroll > 1) { SB1._visible = true;
I use AS3 which I keep separate from my fla project.
I have a contact page and the textfield where you type your message is an Input textfield with multiline and textwrap enabled. The height of my textfield allows for 5 lines of text, then you will have to start scrolling after that.
I use a my own scroll bar nested in a movieclip with instance name "txtScroller" The Input textfield instance name is "messageText"
What I want to do: I want to hide the "txtScroller" mc and show it when the user has typed more than 5 lines of text (using enter to break to a new line, etc).
Now for my problem: The first part of the code works, the "txtScroller" mc is hidden, and I have even tested it with the trace function (see code bellow).
I can for the life of me NOT get the the second part to work, the part where i want to show "txtScroller" mc again. I've treid with the trace function as well but it shows nothing in the 'output' pannel (see code bellow).
The Code: This is all I have with regards to hiding or showing the "txtScroller" mc.
Code: if (messageText.numLines <= 5) { trace("less"); txtScroller.visible = false;
I am using a ScrollPane in my application(viz., instance name is: myScrollPane). When I view the contents of the ScrollPane, it shows them perfectly. My issue is: When I try to view data present inside the ScrollPane, if I move the Vertical-ScrollBar of the ScrollPane to middle(or somewhere from top to down) and then click on Submit button(viz., instance name is: submit_btn), then its Vertical ScrollPosition must be reset from middle(or any position where we leave it before) to top(or initial position). Hence, I need to move the Vertical ScrollPosition of ScrollPane to top (or) initial position. Everytime, I need to refresh the VerticalScrollBar Position when I click on the submit button. How to do it?
Is there a way in spark datagrid to disable some rows programmatically, in flex 3, it could be done using the function mouseEventToItemRenderer this way:
override protected function mouseEventToItemRenderer ( event: MouseEvent): IListItemRenderer { var listItem: IListItemRenderer;// = super.mouseEventToItemRenderer(event);
[Code]....
And then I implement the function disabledRow to return true or false depending on some condition, the condition that will specify if the selected item will be renderered or not. Is there a way in spark datagrid to do the same?
i have an array list of data which i am showing in spark data grid. once i select an idem and click on a button that i have linked with datagrid it adds a panel on screen. I want to disable this selection i-e to tell that this item panel have already been added. Any ideas how can i do that?
I have a list with a dataprovider, it lists out buttons encapsulated in an item renderer. All I want it to do is have a skin that it changes to when it is clicked. I can get this to happen, but then it just goes back to its up state. I want it to stick on the down state, which I have to do by disabling the button.
I have a button in my flex app that creates a popup overtop of everything. However, it seems like flex automatically puts this transparent overlay overtop of the stage when this happens. How do I disable this? I have tried contentBackgroundAlpha="0" and backgroundAlpha="0" with no luck. anyone know what the proper syntax is for disabling this transparency? I have been searching through the docs for a 30 minutes now looking for it.
How do I completely disable the max-execution-time for scripts in flex? The configurable max is 60 seconds, but I'm calling off to other interactive processes which will probably run much longer than that. Is there an easy way to disable the maximum script execution time across my entire application?
I have many buttons in HBox. Instead of disabling each button, I've disabled HBox. But I am able to click buttons even though the HBox is disabled. Disabling parent component will not make difference on its child? it shows like disabled but mouse events will generate.
does anybody know if disabling the security question in the flash player is ok? I need to know the exact facts by reference whether it is ok or not. I found some answers to this but they were assumptions but nor rigid. for instance a reference to Adobe's documentation that says any workaround is illegal.
My Flex 4.5 application has many users from Russia and Ukraine with poor internet connections and Socket connections often interrupt and have to be reconnected.
Currently I set currentState to "offline" on IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR and Event.CLOSE events and display just 1 component in that state:
We are currently building a new web site and have run into some issues with our programmer. I am trying to do some research to see if we can find a way for my issue to be solved so that I can let my programmer know.[code]...
