I have a little concern. I started trying to make a MenuBar control with custom icons already made in FXG format. I have 3 FXG files in "assets.graphics.icons" inside my project folder:
src/assets/graphics/icons/MenuIcon.fxg
src/assets/graphics/icons/ItemAIcon.fxg
src/assets/graphics/icons/ItemBIcon.fxg
After reading the following two links and a bunch of web pages.

I'd like to change icon of the node according to the attribute automatically/dynamically in Flex.[code]
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to publish my AIR app from Flash CS5. Publishing has been fine, until I tried to use my own icon.
In the Adobe AIR 2.5 settings, under the ICON tab, I select my icon.
Now when I publish, I get the error: application.icon is an unexpected element/attribute
Now even if I don't include the icon, I can't publish.
I've found a ton of articles on fixing the same problem re application.version is an unexpected element/attribute - but nothing on this icon prob.
I'm trying to put some File objects into a DataGrid, but I can't find a way to display the File.icon in there.
So far I have this: (ms[x] is a File)
listData.addItem({
filename:ms[x].nativePath.replace(/.*\/,""),
path:ms[x].nativePath.replace(/\[^\]*$/,"\"),
icon:ms[x].icon.bitmaps[0]
[Code]....
filename and path are displayed correctly, I just can't get the file icon to show.
I have a custom file type that I'm reading from and writing to within an AIR application. The file type is XML based but contains encoded data for an image. I've already defined the file type in my application manifest file using the tag which assigns a custom icon to the file.
What I'm trying to figure out is whether it's possible to set the icon for each individual file to be a preview of the image contained within.
Is there a way to disable the hover effects?I don't want flex to highlight the entire component for both link buttons and menu bar.On the menubar, I applied a backgroundSkin, so having flex highlight the whole menubar when the user hovers their mouse on top quitely destroys the design.
View 1 RepliesWell, I was able to simply enough (after about an hour of googling) implement i18n (internationalization) into my Flex application by having to reverse engineer the Flex SDK and do a lot of digging (a specific question on here helped me a lot! (with some updates for flex 4.5)).The problem is, I can't use my {getLand('key')} bind inside an <fx:XMLList> (how you define the contents of a <mx:MenuBar>. I've included some example i18n below, as well as an example of the menu bar.
<!-- Example of proper (working) i18n -->
<s:TextArea text="{getLang('Rules')}"/>[code]..
regarding the events related to menubar sub items, here is some code iam working with

I have a menuBar that looks like this:
<mx:MenuBar id="myMenuBar" labelField="@label" cornerRadius="8" color="black" fillColors="[green, green]" itemClick="menuItemClickHandler(event);"
dataProvider="{menuBarCollection}" change="onTopSelection(event)" />
The XML for my menuBar looks like this:
<menuitem label="Vision">
</menuitem>
<menuitem label="About">
[code]....
As you can see there is Vision and Contact Us but the eventHandler doesn't know when those two are clicked. What is the correct way to implement the eventHandler?
I have an mx:Menubar, which I need to be able to open/expand based on the key pressed. For e.g., if Shift + R is pressed, it needs to open the 'Request' topmenu. Then if Shift + N is pressed, it should load the 'New request' module in the module loader. I've already implemented the MenuBar/module-loading functionality with the mouse, but I haven't been able to implement the keyboard shortcuts. I found a nice sample at [URL].
However, the solution directly performs the action (e.g. Shift + N to load the 'New request' module). The menu does not open/expand when you press the shortcut as though you had hovered your mouse over it (e.g. Shift + R to open/expand the 'Request' topmenu and then Shift + N to load the 'New request' module).
I'm trying to make a menubar with an itemrenderer of linkbuttons. How could I go by doing this? Here is what my code looks like so far, but I can't seem to get it working.
<mx:MenuBar id="menuBar" labelField="@label" dataProvider="{menus}" itemRenderer="mx.controls.LinkButton">
</mx:MenuBar>
I have a MenuBar which opens downwards except when there isn't enough room to open it. For example, it may have 10 items but there's only enough room to display 4-5. Flex then tries to display the menu above the bar, which is completely off the screen. Is there some property or style I'm overlooking to always force it to open downward?
EDIT: Thought I'd give some clarification as to how I plan to circumvent the issue. If I can always force the menubar to be orientated downwards, I can make it into a scrollable menubar displaying only a few items at worst.
I wish to skin MenuBar, and change it's itemSkin to something else, like different background color for each menu item.

View 1 RepliesI published an app to Air 2.5 (.air) from Adobe Flash CS 5 and afterwards also to Air Android (.apk) Since then I receive this error message if I try to publish as .air again:

right-click on a Windows folder, as an example, and to change its icon. Right-clicking on the .exe projector file icon doesn't bring up any such option. Can this icon be changed through ActionScript somehow?

I am having trouble parsing some xml that has a few attribute names with : characters in them. The compiler is not throwing any errors and when I trace my complete xml object out it is all there, however when I try to trace out any element or node it keeps comming up undefined.

I'm trying to get the number of items with a certain attribute in a xml file....for example, i want to find out how many "thumbs" there are with an attribute of "websites"
var items = web_xml.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;
var numOfItems = items.length;
The above gets me the TOTAL number of items in the WHOLE list (numOfItems) so i'm guessing i need something like:
var webItems = items.attributes.type == "websites";
var numOfWebItems = webItems.length;
but that doesn't work...
Here's the xml file:

<thumb type="websites">
