Hi,
The list / combobox a few other components in AS3 / CS3 use the
DataProvider to specify what goes in the boxes...
//Create, then fill up the data provider or pass an array to the
constructor...
var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider();
//set the combobox's dataprovider.
myCB.dataProvider = dp
To change the style of the text, you will have to implement a Custom
CellRenderer - there is an example on this page:
http://www.rockabit.com/2008/04/15/combobox-text-formatting-in-as3/
This only sets one font up for the whole box, but hold on a minute...
If you want to display a list of fonts on the system, the first few lines
of the code in this page will tell you how to get them and then add them to
a list / combobox:
http://www.emanueleferonato.com/2008/05/21/create-a-font-browser-with-flash-as3/
So now what you need to do, is see what the data is in each row of your
list - you can do this by overriding some of the getters and setters in
your Custom CellRenderer:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/fl/controls/listClasses/CellRenderer.html#data
//Something like this:
override public function set data(value:Object):void {
var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
tf.font = value.label;
textField.setNewTextFormat(tf);
this._data = data;
}
CellRenderers are a bit fiddly to get right, but once they are working,
they are quite nice - if the code I put here does not work, read up in the
doc's because my code may be wrong...

Re: [Flashcoders] Re: How to take screenshot of sites , as seen on snap.com
Thank you guys. Thuy Nguyen, can you just give a little bit more detail on how this is possible using just js and css? Ain Tohvri, i tried browsershots. But what they do is to fire the browser, and take screenshots using Python. Is there anyway to take snaps without physically launching the browser? Thanks! Roger.

[Flashcoders] AS3 custom mouse pointer from library impossible??
Creating a custom mouse pointer by attaching [addchild ] from library seems impossible in as3. Everytime i do it,the mouse actually shows up over the pointer movieclip if i move the mouse fast!

[Flashcoders] custom mouse pointer using Actionscript 3.0
Hi All,
I tried the example for custom mouse pointer as shown in Flash cs3
documentation. It works fine. But when the pointer graphics is added from
library, it works in a weird way. Mouse gets over the pointer graphics
resulting in flickering and choppy animation.
I have posted the source files here:
http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?t=139310
Here is the code i am using:
// pseudoMouse is the class of an mc in Library
//pad is the instance name of an mc on stage
//When mouseover mc, the cursor shows up
package{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.ui.Mouse;
public class MouseManage extends MovieClip{
private var cursor:pseudoMouse;
public function MouseManage():void{
cursor=new pseudoMouse();
addChild(cursor);
pad.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,mOver);
pad.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT,mOut);
}
private function mOut(event:MouseEvent):void{
Mouse.show();
pad.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, redrawCursor);
cursor.visible = false;
}
private function mOver(event:MouseEvent):void{
Mouse.hide();
cursor.visible =true;
pad.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, redrawCursor);
}
private function redrawCursor(event:MouseEvent):void{
cursor.x = event.stageX;
cursor.y = event.stageY;
event.updateAfterEvent();
}
}
}
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Re: [Flashcoders] wmode performance headache
In normal situation, flash player draws directly to the rectangular area of screen it resides in . But when wmode is set, the job is routed through browser. So basically, the setting wmode value puts performance at the mercy of the browser . If the browser has a bad implementation of wmode, then it would result in poor performance. Its a well known fact that setting wmode to transparent results in extremely bad performance in Gecko browsers. On 6/18/07, Martin Klasson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Everyone, I got a campaign which is using some intense animations, and everything works well and fast as usual in the flash IDE. but in the browser it doesnt reach the same speed, as usual, BUT, in Firefox, when setting wmode to opaque, than it really goes great, the fps-counter I have really shows the same fps as the movie. but in Internet Explorer, opaque makes the flash player to freeze in some of the intense animations, the framerate doesnt go down -the whole flash just freezes for a short time. That is so strange. So window mode makes the best performance in Internet Explorer. Anyone who can clarify why, how and what I should do to make the best performance out of this?
