Re: [flexcoders] ComboBox and Icons
Andre, Here is the way to replace combobox dropdown with configurable datagrid from my recent post: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders@yahoogroups.com/msg15878.html Adding icon might looksimplier if you apply iconField to dropdown property of the combobox, but making sure that symbols are linked can be tricky. You might consider using control.dropdown.iconFunction instead as it gives you an ability to debug the data requested and symbol returned. Also please make sure you apply these properties after the combobox is initialized for "dropdown" to work, and association is created in the code rather then on the control itself (and the later the better) as the "dropdown" can be destroyed and recreated (on reassignment of dataProvider as an example). However, using cusom class overloading getDropdown method as in the link provided is going to be the most reliable solution - and you can replace dropdown with datagrid or tree or any other "list" tailored for RIA experience.

RE: [flexcoders] ComboBox and Icons
Hi Jim,
thanks for your reply, but i found out
a solution:
In shortform:
Definition of icons in application:
/** embed icons for cbx user status
*/
/** status away */
[Embed(source=/pics/userStatus/away.gif)]
var iconAway:String;
/** status don't disturb */
[Embed(source=/pics/userStatus/dontDisturb.gif)]
var iconDontDisturb:String;
/** status active */
[Embed(source=/pics/userStatus/active.gif)]
var iconActive:String;
Definition of Dataprovider for UserStatus
_arrOffItems:Array = new Array();
_arrOffItems.addItem({label:I'm
away, icon:iconAway, status:0, showAt:2});
_arrOffItems.addItem({label:Don't
disturb me, icon:iconDontDisturb, status:1, showAt:1});
_arrOffItems.addItem({label:I'm
active, icon:iconActive, status:2, showAt:0});
Set Dataprovider
cbxCurrentUserStatus.dataProvider =
_arrOffItems;

RE: [flexcoders] ComboBox
and Icons
Hey Andre,
I just had to address this
earlier this week, and I had to write two custom subclasses to make it
work. If you’re interested I might be able to clean them up and share
it, but it might take a day or two to get around to it.
