[flexcoders] checkbox in itemRenderer

2007-06-07 Thread danj520 
Hi,

I have an itemrenderer that I want to insert a checkbox component.
When I display the TileList, how can I detect when the checkbox has
been checked (and its value, true/false) for each itemrenderer? I have
approx 40 tiles...Thanks in advance..

[flexcoders] REPOST - TileList 'change' not updating subsequent times

2007-04-15 Thread danj520 
I wonder if anyone else has this issue. I have a TileList and when a
tile is initially clicked, the change event works and evokes the
State change normally. When I leave the state and return, even though
I select the same tile, it does nothing. But, if I select other
tiles, the state changes. Here's my code: (BTW, what does ns2 refer
to in the component name?) Thanks in advance, we all appreciate this
board.

mx:TileList id=lowloss_tl x=5 y=3 height=203 width=333
maxColumns=3 direction=horizontal

allowMultipleSelection=false
dataProvider={flexlowlossSrv.lastResult.catalog.product}

itemRenderer=renders.connrender toolTip=Click to see
connector detail

mx:change

![CDATA[

currentState='connDetails';

]]

/mx:change
/mx:TileList

mx:State name=connDetails basedOn=flex_lowloss
mx:AddChild relativeTo={canvas3} position=lastChild
ns2:conntemplate data={lowloss_tl.selectedItem} x=1000

[flexcoders] How do you replay an effect?

2007-04-07 Thread danj520 
I have numerous states, transitions and effects. When I enter a state 
and the effect plays, i.e. creationCompleteEfect={draw_panels}, it 
works fine the first time, but when leaving and re-entering the same 
state, the effects don't play and the components appear static. I'm 
guessing I need to use ShowEffect and HideEffect for each instance. 
Thanks to all.

 dispatchEvent(event);

 }
 If I choose any option, the dispatchFilter function will filter the
 data based on the option criteria, and it's not what I want, what I
 want is the URL defined for the HTTPService so I can load a new XML
 file on the fly. What I think I need is a different change= function
 to do that. Hopefully, this is not too confusing. Thank you again
