Flex :: Keep A List From Scrolling On DataProvider Refresh/update/change?
Jun 30, 2011
I have a simple list and a background refresh protocol.When the list is scrolled down, the refresh scrolls it back to the top. I want to stop this.I have tried catching the COLLECTION_CHANGE event and validateNow(); // try to get the component to reset to the new datalist.ensureIndexIsVisible(previousIndex); // actually, I search for the previous data id in the IList, but that's not importantThis fails because the list resets itself after the change).I hate to use a Timer, ENTER_FRAME, or callLater(), but I cannot seem to figure out a way.The only other alternatives I can see is sub-classing the List so it can catch the dataProviderChanged event the DataGroup in the skin is throwing.

Is there a way so that every time the list is changed (data add, data deleted, etc.), the list will re-update or "refresh?"

I have a component that contains a list that implements a custom renderer. I use this component as a tooltip, keeping one in memory and just altering the databindings as necessary.
Something like this where TTComponent is a class that extends Canvas:
<s:TTComponent>
<s:BorderContainer>
<s:List id='lstItems' dataProvider="{data.Items}" width="50%" borderVisible="false" contentBackgroundColor="#222222">
[Code]....
Now, what happens is when data containing many items is set to tt.data, the list resizes itself larger and displays fine. However, after this, if data containing few items is set to tt.data, the component momentarily displays larger than it needs to be, then resizes itself smaller.
What I'd like to do is have the component resize itself before it displays, so I don't see the resize on screen.

In flex 4.5, I have an application that has a BorderContainer that loads a spark list (mxml style - _myList and the borderContainer is stored in a library outside of the parent application) that loads an arrayCollection with an itemRenderer (I should note said itemRenderer is not an inline renderer - on selection of an item in the list, the itemRenderer expands, loads a particular control within the item renderer based on data passed from the selected item in the list) and allows the user to perform a search. This works all well and good on startup/load, until I try to change the dataProvider for the list (my app allows users to switch data sources which then creates a new dataProvider with new variables). I have tried:

i have the following code:
<mx:Repeater id="user" dataProvider="{data}">
<mx:VBox styleName="repeaterVBox">
<mx:Text text="{user.currentItem.a}. {user.currentItem.b}"
[Code]....
the dataProvider 'data' updated itself every 3 seconds, so every 3 seconds that is a flicker of some sort, i see for a really short time an empty area and then it gets redrawn again. is there a way to make the update somewhat faster ?

I'm using a List which I need to be empty at the start. I'm adding items to it as needed by clicking a button. Since it's empty, I haven't added a dataProvider property
<s:List id="thelist" itemRenderer="listIR" />
To add an item, I'm adding it to the dataProvider directly
thelist.dataProvider.addItem()
but when I do that, it gives me this error
#1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
Also I have a debugging Alert in the listIR itemRenderer itself and I see that when the list is created, I get that alert twice as if 2 itemRenderers were created, even though the list is supposed to be empty at the start.
How do I start with an empty dataProvider and add items smoothly to it?

I have a spark List with an item renderer and a tile layout. If I scroll by clicking with the mouse on the scroll bar and trying to scroll with the mouse wheel after that, there is a problem: The interval of the scrolling is oversized, instead of scrolling one item down (or up) the List scrolls 4 items down (or up).

I have some xml, I want to give it to a List dataprovider, but based on an attribute match.
My Xml
<components>
<rows name="general">
<objects name="Start" image16="startflag16" image32="startflag32" class="someclass">
[Code].....
And I am trying to do something like below, If I remove (@name=="general") from below line it gives me all property
listView.dataProvider=list_components.rows(@name=="general").objects.property;
But it gives me error, so basically I want to get all property based on rows attribute name matching general

I have this error. I am very very new to the Flex world. I have this function which returns an ArrayList.
public function createDataProvider():ArrayList {
....
return new ArrayList(imgArray);
}
Later, I use it here:
<s:List id="pubmapList" dragEnabled="false" dropEnabled="false" dragMoveEnabled="false" dataProvider="{createDataProvider}">
Here, I got an error saying: implicit coercion of a value of type to an unrelated type mx.collections.ilist. I thought the IList implementation includes ArrayList.

ArrayCollection:

I get an error (fixed for clarification):Error: Skin for Application....Button1 cannot be found.

Here is a snip from within my code:
[Code]...
The 'recommendations' dataProvider is an ArrayCollection of String, which are generally sentences about as long as this one. By setting the variableRowHeight and wordWrap properties as shown, if a sentence is too long to fit on a single line, everything works fine- the row expands and the messages show on two lines, or occasionally three.
The space allocated for this panel within the entire canvas means if the total text size of 'recommendations' exceeds six lines, I need for the entire list scroll. This is also working just fine. The trouble is when using the mouse wheel to do the scrolling- Flex scrolls both the entire list and the single item where the mouse is hovering. Often this results in only the second half of a sentence being visible. Non-programmer friends I have asked to look at this noticed this, and tell me it as a problem. If a user does not notice the dual scrolling, and sees only a fragment of a sentence, it will be perceived as an error in the application.

I am a Java developer who tries Flex.I have a list component in Flex filled by objects got from Java (by binding dataprovider).I have put drag-drop support on list.Everything is good.But I wanted to have a reset function to reinitialize list, namely get back drag-dropped elements to the list.I tried several thing on event handler of reset button but could not reinitialise the list data. For example:
public function resetList():void {
trace("reset")
listsrc.dataProvider = srv.getTerritories.lastResult
}
"reset" is debugged but there is no change on list.

what I need to do is combine 5 arrays with 5 individual strings (which have come from a JSON webservice) into one single list item in FlashBuilder Burrito. [code]I've pulled these out successfully and each one traces in the debugger, although as I need them all in the same list I'm struggling to establish them as a dataprovider together.If I push the strings and arrays together it is impossible to read properly, as the main Titles are at a different level to any descriptors for the products which are in the arrays.

I have a Spark List container whose dataProvider is bound to a result set coming back from a RemoteObject call. Pretty standard stuff.
<s:List id="list" dataProvider="{model.stuff}" width="100%" height="100%"
selectedIndex="@{selectedSlider.value}"
itemRenderer="{stuffRenderer}">
</s:List>
The selectedIndex is associated with an HSlider, but that is not the problem. My issue is that I would like to automatically select a certain "preferred" element from the list (only initially...to guide the user).
I tried to do that in a creationComplete event but my data hadn't shown up yet...setting selectedIndex didn't work..

I have been trying to find a way to connect Flex to sharepoint in an elegant way that allows me to update lists, build charts, and create widgets with FLEX on the client-side. I have researched this extensively but I am running into circles.
I understand the basics of Flex data connection/webservices/etc... , I just can't seem to get my head around how to use the sharepoint list services.

I am encountering a bizarre Flex 3.4 issue. I have a class that acts a dataprovider to my entire application named "DataProvider.as":
package {
public class DataProvider {
[Bindable]
public static var email_enable:Boolean = true;
}}
In an mxml form, "Settings.mxml" I have a checkbox control which is bound to the email_enable variable of my dataprovider class:
<mx:CheckBox x="452" y="170" label="{Language.loadLanguageResource('lblEmail')}"
id="chkEmail"
selected="{DataProvider.email_enable}"
change="onChange()"/>
All is well as far as getting the value, if I set the variable in my dataprovider to either true or false, the checkbox reflects this change; however, if I click on the checkbox and change it's value, the dataprovider variable never reflects the change.

Is there a way to apply a renderer to a grid in a way so that it doesn't modify the values in the data provider? I have a datagrid and on one of its columns I have a customer renderer which overrides the set data function and converts the number value in the dataprovider to a word. My problem is that when I sort the grid by that column it sorts by the new value, whereas I want it to sort by the old value that was originally in the dataprovider. Here is my renderer:

My Flex datagrid automatically scrolls to the top when I update the dataProvider (ArrayCollection). I do not want this to happen, but I still want all of the objects to update. I am developing a semi-real time dashboard for a customer's management system, that will update often. If it scrolls to the top every time it updates, it will be very difficult and frustrating to use.I've attempted to use the following techniques to prevent this, none have worked.
dataProvider = updatedDataProvider;
dataProvider.updateItem(dataProvider);
dataProvider.source = updatedDataProvider.source;
dataProvider.updateItem(dataProvider);
I've attempted to dispatch a mouse event to hold the vertical scrollbar in place, I've attempted to lock the vertical scrollbar position value in place (saving and reassigning)..
