Thankyou all... I have a solution:
Sadly, Menu implementation "controls" menu-out-of-bounds, with the
code posted upper:
from mx.controls.Menu.show(... , ...)
[CODE]
// Adjust for menus that extend out of bounds
if (this != getRootMenu())
{
var shift:Number = x + width - screen.width;
if (shift > 0)
x = Math.max(x - shift, 0);
}
[/CODE]
As you can see, This piece of code can only control the right edge of
the screen... so it can result useless.
Thanks to you, now, I use onShow event and callLater to play a custom
animation.
Here is my code:
[CODE]
//this function is called in the eventListener(onShow)
private function processAfter(event: MenuEvent): void {
//root menu is an exception in my schema.
if (event.menu.parentMenu != null){
var current_menu: Menu = event.menu;
var menu_height: int = current_menu.height;
var menu_width: int = current_menu.width;
/*system execute the show function before the menu can be in
its correct place, I use these two lines to avoid menu can be
visualized (perhaps, it is not necessary) */
current_menu.height = 0;
current_menu.width = 0;
this.callLater(this.moveSubmenu, [current_menu, menu_height,
menu_width]);
}
}
/*******************************************************************/
private function moveSubmenu(current_menu: Menu, menu_height: int,
menu_width: int): void {
var bottom_edge_menu: int = this.rootMenu.y+this.rootMenu.height;
var submenu_edge: int = current_menu.y + menu_height;
var pixels_upper: int = 0;
if (limite_inferior_menu < limite_menu) {
pixels_upper= (submenu_edge - bottom_edge_menu);
}
/*restoring menu height and width*/
current_menu.height = menu_height;
current_menu.width = menu_width;
var animate_menu: Sequence = new Sequence();
/* here comes animation sequence creation, using pixels_upper to
move up current_menu.y position*/
animate_menu.play([current_menu]);
}
[/CODE]
I will continue looking for new solutions for this problem.
Thankyou very much for this help.
