Combo Box, Pulldowns don't work in Clip

I created a movie that calls for another movie that contains two drop-down list boxes.

The film 'parent' called in the movie 'child' to help:

this.createEmptyMovieClip ("newAddresses_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth ());

The child film uses the following to one of the pulldowns. (The drop down menu second looks great so I felt to be redundant, and zip code):

var toChoice:Boolean = false;
var fromChoice:Boolean = false;
var my_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
to the recipient
objComboListener = new Object();
objComboListener.change = {function (eventObj)}
my_lv.to = eventObj.target.value;
sent_txt. Text = "";
If (eventObj.target.value == 'defaultValue') {}
toChoice = false;
} else {}
toChoice = true;
}
trace (eventObj.Target.value);
};
namesTo.addEventListener ("change", objComboListener);

The pulldowns work properly when the swf file is tested only, but when she is called in the film of parent the pulldowns don't work. I tried to add _root.newAddresses_mc. at namesTo. I tried adding 'this'... I tried to add '_root.*' and "this.*" to objComboListener so, nothing helps.

I can't understand it.

Suggestions?

Thanks in advance-

Hi Doug -.

I understand, but I just thought of it. I googled "combobox flash", for the thousandth time and read about _lockroot. While adding ._lockroot = true; the film clip is fixed. Thanks for the offer of help. I'm on duty again!

  • Combo box don't Worky

    I'm setting up a lesson on computer that uses a film of a parent to the overall interface and it loads each topic as a children's movie.

    Everything works as advertised, with the exception of the drop-down list box. I have correspondence issues in a topic, and when I run the subject on its own, it's all good. HOWEVER, when my parent movie load this topic as a child, the combo box STOPS WORKING.

    Specifically, when you hover over and click on one of the circuit breakers, he gets a clear (highlighted) green line around it, indicating that it indeed has the focus, but nothing happens when you click on it! The drop-down list does not appear, and no selection is possible. Yet once, it works fine when the swf file that contains the CBs is run on its own. It just does not work when this film is loaded in another.

    This description of the cries of a path problem. However, the only code that I associated these circuit breakers, is a function of change, whose only purpose is to gray on the selections of column B. I have NO CODE for the use of the CB... and the drop-down list of the values in the list are hard connected to CBS by using the window of parameters found in the properties panel when the CB is selected.

    All SWFs are compiled as Flash 7 with 2 ACEs. (But still once, there is no code in this topic that modifies the built-in feature of the BC).

    Someone at - he hear about this problem or can think of that would cause this?

    EDITED TO ADD:

    Although the CB is highlighted, the mouse cursor no IS NOT the CHANGE as it does for other mouse over events.

    It must be a ComboBox in the parent swf file. Drag a copy of the combobox component in the window of the component on the stage of the parent swf file. Remove from the scene. Publish.

  • How to validate and save the values to a combo box and two text boxes in flex4 mxml application with as3

    helllo all,.

    I'm working on the application web flex4 with as3.

    my needs are I gave here.

    need 1: when I choose option amount that two text boxes does not have to be editable.when I select text tat box two percentage option will be editable.

    How to validate it and how to write backup for this function.

    any suggession or extract code is welcome.

    Thanks in advance,

    Looks like you are trying to do too much at once. Try to hang the events correctly

    The close event of the comboBox can do something like this

    protected function toggleTextEditing(event:DropDownEvent):void

    {

    If (this.optionCmb.selectedItem.label is "Percentage")

    {

    This.Text1.editable = true;

    This.Text2.editable = true;

    }

    Else if (this.optionCmb.selectedItem.label == "Number")

    {

    This.Text1.editable = false;

    This.Text2.editable = false;

    }

    }

    The button's click event can do something like

    protected function save(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    If (this.optionCmb.selectedItem.label is "Percentage")

    {

    If (this.text1.text == "" & this.text2.text == "")

    {

    Alert.Show ("text is empty");

    return;

    }

    on the other

    {

    }

    }

    Else if (this.optionCmb.selectedItem.label == "Number")

    {

    }

    }

    If you can put in your entire code, maybe I can have a look to see if I can find something wrong with that.

  • Combo box and stored Variables

    Hi all

    I am currently working on an interactive flash application for an open company day celebration for children and adults. The app is nearly complete but I even if I need an arrow to the left in case the user change their mind on some selections. At the beginning of the application, the user is prompted for their title with a combo box of actionscripted, as well as their first and last name values.

    I have problems with when the steps of the user to that image from the drop-down list box does not show the value that has been shopping in title_cb. I had the values of fname and family name in the correct text entry areas, it's just the drop-down list box. I guess its the code that is bad, but don't know what else to try.

    I hope that someone will be able to help.

    The selectedItem is an object that contains the label and data properties. What you
    can do to bring the handset to a variable is iterate over each item, verification
    It's the label against your variable - if you find a match, you set the
    selectedIndex of the comboBox control. Here's a function I user:

    function setCombo (comboRef, searchLabel:String) {}
    var l = comboRef.length;
    for (var i = 0; i)< l;="" i++)="">
    If (comboRef.getItemAt (i) .label == searchLabel) {}
    comboRef.selectedIndex = i;
    break;
    }
    }
    }

    to use, you would just go: setCombo (title_cb, citlecb);

  • Channels not defined in Combo Box Bug?

    I found a problem with the drop-down list box control:

    1. create a drop-down list box and deselect 'allow Undefined Strings.

    2. run the VI

    3. Select a list box item

    4. press on the BACKSPACE key to remove a few letters of the item

    5. click on on the front panel

    The combo box is filled with a string not set!

    Disabling the BACKSPACE key is not a valid work-around because the user may need this while typing the value.  Expected behavior of the control would be to restore the previous value.  Any comments?

    Yes.

  • combo box record strings at run time

    Anyone know if there is an easy way to save new channels in a drop-down list at run time?

I found the 'Ring and Combo Box.vi' example that will do the work, but that seems a little exaggerated to me - there at - it a simpler way or a better control should I use? Thank you very much.

    You can change channels from the drop-down list by using nodes of property:

  • Install fees HCM 9.1, but the links don't work do not. Help please

    Dear all,

    I'm trying to make a move to the SAP to PeopleSoft. I thought it is easier to install TFTP since the number of installation source is much less than SAP. However, I kept getting same error where the links does not work no matter which environment I tried to install.

    I downloaded all of the software delivery.
    HCM 9.1, PTOOLS 8.52, Oracle 11 g 64 bit, Oracle Client 32-bit.

    First test:
    Install on windows 7 64 bit. Everything works fine until the first connection to the TFTP and all links doesn't do not.
    Hakan suggestion is to apply the patch and gave me a link to the old FTP site. I downloaded the patch 85209 but got the password.
    Finally I managed to get a customer to a friend ID and downloaded Patch 85211 and applied. But received error java so I put discarded it.
    Anyway, Gasparotto said the environment is not certified and will not solve my problem with the patch.

    Second test:
    Installed Virtual Box.
    Installed Windows 2008 R2 and apply the SP1.
    Installed all over again.
    Insured the similar PTWEBSERVER the username password.
    Everything works fine, but when connect to TFTP, once again... the links does not and see in the lower left corner there are a javascript error where they don't find some objects of peoplesoft...

    Just upgraded to IE 9 because I read somewhere that IE 8 is not certified.
    Tried to log in again, no error message and all seems well, but... the links don't work do not.

    Newspapers seems normal to me.

    Anyone who ever encountered similar problems before?
    Fact it is normal behavior before the tools patch 85211 applied?

    AppDesigner 3tier mode does not care webprofile and Web server. It doesn't use any.

    an idea of the JOLT_CAT:1592 error?

    I think you misunderstandoog 3tier mode.
    3tier with AppDesigner connection is a direct connection to the application through the WSL port server, not on the Web or JSL port server or.
    So first WSL must be activate and port configured on the appserverver.
    Second, your client should point to WSL port (7000).

    If the user has not always need to interact with the text field, simply set the field read-only and use the following script in the custom text field calculation script:

    Script will count for the text field.

    Copy the value of the drop-down list box in this area

    Event.Value = getField("your_combo").value;

    Replace "your_combo" with the actual name of your combo box field.
