What is the approach to expand a DataGrid vertical scrollbar's width (from the standard 15 pixels, to 44 or so, for touchscreens) in pure AS3 / Flash CS 5?
It looks easy in Flex now http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/flex-fun-advanced-datagrid-topics But in Flash/AS3, directly editing library > Component Assets > ScrollBarSkins > Scrolltrack_skin as recommended at http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ActionScript/3.0_UsingComponentsAS3/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9c65b32-7f4a.html to change its color and width does change the color and the width in the library, but only the color -- not the width at runtime. Widening scrollThumb_upSkin, et al in the library does show them altered when run, but cut off at the stock 16 pixel width of DataGrid scrolltrack. Any thoughts? thanks // basically straight from livedocs... import fl.controls.DataGrid; import fl.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn; import fl.data.DataProvider; import fl.events.DataGridEvent; function setup ():void { var aDg:DataGrid = new DataGrid(); addChild(aDg); aDg.verticalScrollPolicy="on"; var nameDGC:DataGridColumn = new DataGridColumn("name"); nameDGC.sortOptions = Array.CASEINSENSITIVE; var scoreDGC:DataGridColumn = new DataGridColumn("score"); scoreDGC.sortOptions = Array.NUMERIC; aDg.addColumn(nameDGC); aDg.addColumn(scoreDGC); var aDP_array:Array = new Array({name:"clark", score:3135}, {name:"Bill", score:803}, {name:"fc", score:03}, {name:"Bruce", score:403}, {name:"Peter", score:25}) aDg.dataProvider = new DataProvider(aDP_array); aDg.rowCount = aDg.length - 2; aDg.width = 200; // also does nothing aDg.verticalScrollBar.width = 60; } _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
