I have a buttonbar that has 3 buttons. I'm trying to set a tooltip for each of the buttons, but not sure where. The ButtonBar itself has a skin, which in turn includes a skin for each of the buttons.
I have created a spark ButtonBar which is dynamically populated with XML and skinned to look like a standard TabBar. When I used the TabBar in Flex 3, the width of each Tab would shrink or grow to the size of the Label, plus a little padding either side. When using the spark ButtonBar in Flex 4, I find that no matter how short the label (even an empty string), the Buttons will be at least 70 pixels wide, and will expand for longer labels. I have tried setting the minWidth to 20 in various places, including on my ButtonBarButton skin, but this has no effect.
I have a nice looking fxg button, to which I want to attach a tooltip- how do I achieve that without much hassle? (the spark button does this out-of-box, but is not very visually pleasing)The examples I have seen on search is reverse- using fxg effects in the tooltip.
I have tooltips in flex but when a component is clicked the tooltip disappears and the user has to move mouse out of the control and then back into the control to display the tooltip. Is there a way to prevent the tooltip from getting destroyed on mouse click. I tried calling e.stopImmediatePropagation(); e.preventDefault(); on mouse click event of button. also tried handling and preventing tooltipEnd and tooltipHide events but they are not fire when the button is clicked.
I have a Spark ButtonBar that has a custom skin, which defines a custom skin for the "middleButton" requirement. My CustomButtonBarSkin has a custom state, minimized, which I want to pass into my middleButton skin so it can modify its design.
Is it possible to do this? I can see that my button skin could use parentDocument.currentState to get the minimized state, but that's really ugly. Any way to pass a skin from the bar to the child button(s)?
I have a Spark ButtonBar and I got it hooked up correctly with a ViewStack. Currently, when I run the application (AIR), the first button in the ButtonBar is selected by default. How can I make the second button selected by default?
<mx:ViewStack id="viewStack"> <s:NavigatorContent id="Page 1"> <!-- Other stuff in here -->[code]............
I am trying to add a navigation component with a button bar in it that controls the view stack of the main application. Here is what I have so far for the main application's code:
I've been looking around on how to get the focusedIndex property of a ButtonBar when there's a mouseOver/Out event, but haven't found nothing useful.EDIT 1Assuming we have this button bar:I'd like to know, when rolling over, the target button.Putting a break point in a function that listens to the mouseover event, this is what I see in the debug view:
I am using a custom component at the top of my application that includes an image and a buttonBar. I have the namespace declared in main.mxml as comps and the package is components. When I assign the dataProvider to the buttonBar and run the application, all I get is a blank page. If I remove the dataProvider everything loads fine. the dataProvider is supposed to be the ViewStack component I have in the main.mxml. The buttonBar and image custom component is TopNav.mxml
The problem is that my TopNav component does not know the dataProvider I am asking it to change; MyViewStack. Do I need to create a public viewstack variable and pass it to the component?
I've got a spark buttonbar w/ a dataprovider as follows:[code]By default, the button's labels will be "Dave" and "Brenda", respectively. How can I dynamically change the label to the "addr" field when a user rolls over the button?
I have drop on a strange occurance - inserting a ButtonBar inside ListItemRenderer freeze the application. The bug is highly reproductive.ere is a bit of the code :
sorting out an XML file, what I have is a tooltip that loads in via XML and exported from flash. the XML loads in 2 text fields, field and field2. what I am trying to do is add a button also to the tooltip so that you can click and go to a url.
I have a gallery that generates thumbs. I want to make a tooltip on each thumb. If i add this to one button in particular it works fine, but looping it screws it up, i know its a simple syntax issue but am just stupid.
My flex app has various Custom components. I want the tooltips for all of them to show at the top-right corner.Is there a Application setting that I can do this with? Or do I have to do this at the component level.
I got struck with tooltip position as well as style. I used string validator to perform validation. Error tooltip is coming right hand side by default. I want to change it on top of the text field as well as its clolor also. but I just want it to perform with every tooltip not with any specific one.
I'm having trouble changing the font size of my TextInput tooltip. The text input looks like this:
<s:TextInput id="first" toolTip="Hello"/>
then I create a style like this:
<fx:Style> @namespace s "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"; @namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo";
[Code]....
P.S. I also get a yellow warning: "CSS type selectors are not supported in components: 'mx.controls.ToolTip'" but it still compiles since it's just a warning, but nothing happens.
I'm displaying a list of buttons, some of which might be disabled. I need to show a tooltip on the disabled buttons with an explanation of why it's disabled, but it seems I can't disable the button without disabling the tooltip. Is there a simple way around this?
I have an AIR app that I have developed for a client.It has a system tray icon with the company name, app name etc, displayed in a tooltip.This all works very simply except that the client in question has a & in their name.No matter how I encode this, it never seems to get displayed.
