So, I got both the valueCommit and the <Observe /> tag to work when manually setting list.selectedIndex, but not the list.selectedItem property.
You can check out either version ... For those without the <Observe /> tag, just remove those two ... They appear to be functionally equivalent in this case. <?xml version="1.0"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" xmlns:local="*" xmlns:ac="com.adobe.ac.*"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.collections.ArrayCollection; [Bindable] private var dp : ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection( [{ name:"test1" }, { name:"test2" }, { name:"test3" }, { name:"test4" }, { name:"test5" }, { name:"test6" }, { name:"test7" }, { name:"test8" }, { name:"test9" }] ); ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:NumericStepper id="stepper" minimum="1" maximum="10" /> <mx:List id="scrollList" selectedIndex="{ stepper.value }" dataProvider="{ dp }" width="150" valueCommit="{ scrollList.scrollToIndex( scrollList.selectedIndex ) }" labelField="name"/> <!--<mx:List id="scrollList" selectedItem="{ dp.getItemAt( stepper.value ) }" dataProvider="{ dp }" width="150" valueCommit="{ scrollList.scrollToIndex( scrollList.selectedIndex ) }" labelField="name"/> --> <mx:List id="scrollList2" selectedIndex="{ stepper.value }" dataProvider="{ dp }" width="150" labelField="name" /> <!--<mx:List id="scrollList2" selectedItem="{ dp.getItemAt( stepper.value ) }" dataProvider="{ dp }" width="150" labelField="name" />--> <ac:Observe source="{ scrollList2.selectedIndex }" handler="{ function() : void { scrollList2.scrollToIndex( scrollList2.selectedIndex ) } }" /> <mx:Button click="{ scrollList.selectedIndex = 10; scrollList2.selectedIndex = 10 }" label="Scroll to end" /> </mx:Application> Tracy Spratt wrote: > > Did you try the commitValue event? > > > > Tracy > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > *From:* [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > *On Behalf Of *Tim Hoff > *Sent:* Thursday, October 12, 2006 6:23 PM > *To:* [email protected] > *Subject:* [flexcoders] Re: Binding scroll position to the selected index > > > > Ok, subclass yes.
