Flex :: Highlight The String In The Textarea After It's Been Searched For?
Sep 17, 2011
I'm using the code below to search the text in a textarea for a string entered in a textinput. I'm trying to highlight the string in the textarea after it's been searched for. I assume the way to do this is selectRange(). I'm not sure how to find the endIndex for the second parameter of selectRange(). Below is what I have:
protected function searchBtn_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
text = mainTextField.text;[code].....

I am doing one search option in Flash. Where i have a list of 30 people. And i have a virtual keyboard. If anyone click one any letter in that virtual keyboard it ll search the name start with that letter and so on.
Everything is working fine. But what i want is : I want to highlight the letter they are searching that mean if the name is JOSEPH MARG
And they typed JOS , JOSEPH MARG will be listed and at the same time i want to highlight JOS in JOSEPH MARG.
I am able to list it but unable to highlight the particular word which is searched.

I have a TextArea that allows user input. I also have TextInput that the user can type a string into and I want to be able to search through the TextArea for the string in the TextInput. I've never done anything like this before, searching for strings, so I don't know which functions to use or how to go about it.EDIT:
protected function searchBtn_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
text = mainTextField.text;

I have a TextArea, a TextInput and a button. When text is entered into the TextInput the TextArea is searched for the matching string, however it only highlights the first found instance of the string. How can I do a 'find next' type of operation.

{
text = mainTextField.text;

Very bizarre issue here: For whatever reason, my datagrid will not highlight items as I roll my mouse over them. Instead, the highlight bar just remains static on the last entry in the datagrid. I know I can still select items as I have written methods that respond to the selection. [code]...

I want to perform simple validation against multiple fields. Please note these fields are not within a mx:Form since the way they are displayed isn't the norm. The validation works properly, however, it does not highlight the textInput with the error message.
myValidator.source = empName1;
myValidator.property = "text";
if(myValidator.validate().type == ValidationResultEvent.VALID)

I have an advancedatagrid that displays a table of values from an arraycollection coming from a webservice. I am wanting to highlight either the maximum or minimum value in a row or column.I'm not bothered how they are highlighted - be it the backround changed, the font colour changed or just making it bold - I just want that particular cell to be different to the others.What I'm struggling with is finding the cell with the maximum (or minimum) value and then changing it's appearance.In one grid I want to compare across the row, in another accros the columns.

This page describes how to override the drawHighlightIndicator/drawSelectionIndicators methods for the header of a DataGrid, but an AdvancedDataGrid does not have "headerClass" in mx_internal. It instead has an headerRenderer.
How can I remove those blasted highlights over an AdvancedDataGrid in Flex 3?

how I can select a row in a datagrid in flex and have it highlight that row plus any related rows.Let me give you can example:Let's say that I have a datagrid. In the grid I have two columns for each row. One column has what type of car they own, and the other column has the owners name. Let's say that an owner has two cars. So you have a datagrid that looks like this (4 rows, 2 columns):if you click on the Camery row, the Jaguar row and the Camery row are both highlighted.I have a datagrid that has items, and has related items to its parent.

I have a search and results page that I would like to highlight the keywords that were searched for, in the text of the results. It was suggested that I use TextLine for this, but I am having trouble figuring out how to make it work. I started a simple, compilable dummy application and was hoping someone could give me some tips on how to continue:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application
xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

I have an array of items that should be selected in my tree control. As you can see from my code below, I bind this array to the selectedIndices property of the tree. The selected Items are not properly selecting in tree(selecting some other items and always root is selected).Flex seems to "ignore" my items (selects some other indices).
My XMLList:-
<fx:Declarations>
<!-- Place non-visual elements (e.g., services, value objects) here -->
<fx:XMLList id="XMLList">
<node><node name="max">

I've two problems, the second of which is only an issue because it's a possible way to fix the first! I'm developing a Flex 4.1 application, using a Spark theme: I can't change these; Halo isn't an option. It's providing the facility to fill multiple-selected cells of an AdvancedDataGrid with a single character, from a single keypress. So the user selects their cells using the Shift key, hits H (for example) and sees all the cells update with H, without using an itemEditor but via grid keyDown events instead. Then they click somewhere else and the selection should clear.
However the visible selection isn't fully cleared and the newly coloured cells won't all change from their selected colour. Underneath I can verify that the selection has cleared: mygrid.selectedCells is empty. All behaviour afterwards points to some kind of display glitch with the grid: The cells aren't selected any more but they look like they are.
