Flex :: Wrap Buttons In The HBox Instead Of Seeing Scrolling Bar?
Apr 18, 2010
I have a HBox and I dynamically add Buttons into it. I want to distribute such buttons horizontally, however I would like to place there on more rows if there is not anymore horizontal space, instead of seeing the scrolling bar.How can I do that ?
I'm working with a LinkBar component with a dataprovider that changes dynamically. Users can add and delete items from the LinkBar using an admin tool.
The problem is if the user adds many items in the LinkBar its width increases until it shows a scrollbar in my container.
I would like it to work so that when the user adds items, the LinkBar width is not changed but the height of the component increases instead and the additional buttons "wrap" around to another row.
I'm trying to make a scrolling slideshow. They are real estate listings read from an XML file which consist of a thumbnail and 3 text fields (Title, address, price). Right now I have it working to the point where all of the data loads into a row of MCs that scroll to the left using the Tweener class.
I just can't achieve a wrap around effect. Here's a link to the swf as it is now: [URL] Knowing that duplicating MCs is a difficult task, I just half-assed it by loading the dame data into a new array of MCs (arrayBox and arrayBox2). The code below does not actually make use of the "duplicated" listing MCs. I thought I could just move a listing MC over to the right after when totally offstage but that does not seem to be working. Here's the offending AS3 source:
I'm trying to set the hand cursor on a HBox. I've tried buttonMode and useHandCursor but have had no luck. This example displays the busy cursor. how to make it display the flashPlayer's hand cursor?
I create an HBox, fill it with a grid of buttons, and set the scroll policy. When I resize the window, the stage changes size, and so does the HBox ... to a point. Once it reaches the height of the Grid it contains, it stops shrinking, like it has a "min-height". This ruins the scrollbar that I'm trying to establish in this case.
I've set the height to 100%, shouldn't it always take the height of the stage, it's parent?[code]....
I have a VBox inside which I have 4 HBoxes. The second level HBox is initially hidden.When I click the label, 'Show more Options', the second level HBox is displayed.Now I have the space occupied by the 'second level HBOx' empty and the 'search' button appaers below the space.My first question is, Is there a way to position the Search Button in such a way that, the space is not there and after the 'Show more Options' label is clicked, the 'Second Level HBox' appears?And the second question is, Can I position the Search Button at the center of the page. Is there any method to center the contents of a HBox of a VBox?This is my code:
I only really need the HBox answer but figure that if we get a good answer in here I'm trying to do a similar thing with a VBox. It would be nice to know this in both actionscript and MXML. So I have an HBox that I want some text aligned from the left and some radios from the right. Like so:
I have a HBox with no background, but with some children. Behind the HBox is a button which need to be clicked. The button is unclickable at the moment because the HBox is on top of it. I need the button to be clickable and still have the HBox on top of it
I am in need of a strange solution. I have one requirement in which I am displaying two components in a VBox. But on click of the main container I need to maximize that and need to display the components in horizontal. I was just wondering whether I can change the VBox to HBox and viceversa dynamically using actionscript or some other way.
I'm trying to create an HBox in flex that has only the top corners rounded. HBox (and all the other flex containers) have a cornerRadius style, but it applies to all corners. I'm not seeing a way to specify the style of individual corners.
Is there any built-in way to do this, or will I need to write my own custom drawing code to draw the background with rounded corners?
I need to insert a Box containing some text that appears between the grid header and main content and spans all the grid columns. I've been searching and experimenting (addChildAt()) but no luck so far. Is this possible to achieve?If not, is it possible to dynamically render the text in the header itself, below and spanning the column header text?
I'm just learning about Flex and I'm loving it. Unfortunatly I still have to make the decision on which RIA technology to use and its dependent on, among other things, from the following case: How can we wrap a java applet around a Flex application? More specifically, I would like to wrap/integrate NASA's World Wind applet in a Flex panel, similar to what Adrew Trice did with the Google Earth API.
An alternative would be id Flex would support direct access to the 3D hardware through OpenGL or DirectX. But I do not think that that is the case yet, not even through AIR.
I am trying to wrap some text with a component but can not figure out how to align them correctly. Here is what I am looking for:If you have not entered your credentials, enter your credentials by clicking Set Credentials.
The "If you have not entered your credentials, enter your credentials by clicking" is a string.The "Set Credentials" is a button so it can be clicked by the user.I tried putting the string in a textarea which wrapped the text but could not get the button to horizontally align with the text. I also tried adding them both with Tile, then I do not get proper wrapping.
In flex, I have HBox in which I have loaded an image. I want to wrap text around it. Hence, there would be an image on right and text will be on left. After the image is cleared, text will be displayed 100% of the width. How can I achieve it?
The standard Flex button does not allow the Label Text to word wrap. I read in the internet that there are some undocumented ways to handle this but I did not get them to work.
I basically want to make things easier by just looping LinkButtons instead of making textfields because the linkbuttons have the rollovers already programmed.
But I have a lot of text and it just keeps going. I want it to wrap like I can do with textfields.[code]...
(this is an example, I'm adding elements to the HGroup in Actionscript, not knowing how many) So how could I wrap the elements inside a HGroup to a new line when there is an overflow?
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 made a map which I have made scrollable across the stage using the keyboard arrow keys.
e.g:
PHP Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) { if (Key.isDown(39)) { _x=_x-4;
[Code]....
These on screen buttons allow the user to move the map every time they click however it would be more user friendly if these buttons continued to move the map on a hold down state until released or via rolling on/off.
