Hi Andrew, this is a wild guess, but I once had a similar issue, though it's long ago and can't quite remember. The thing was that there was a difference in the ComboBox implementation between Flash MX2004 and Flash 8 I think, although it wasn't documented.
You would first have to pinpoint of course if that is indeed the issue. It might also be the issue that some v2 components need to be present in the parent swf in order to be used succesfully in child swf's. If the class difference is the problem, you could try copy and pasting your flash versions combobox.as (with which your application does work) into a combobox class of your own, extending the old one for polymorphism and overriding everything, and then set yourCombo.__proto__ to YourComboBoxClass.prototype. Just a hack to see if that is where the problem lies :). regards, JC On Fri, May 28, 2010 at 3:36 PM, Andrew Sinning <and...@learningware.com>wrote: > We've built an AS2 application that can be embedded into various LMSs, etc. > > Curiously, when embedded in Adobe Connect (also written in AS2), the > ComboBoxes aren't rendered correctly.
