[flexcoders] Re: Menubar sub menu pop up orientation
Take a look at... http://dougmccune.com/blog/2007/01/25/vertical-menubar-component/ It looks like someone has already modified that component to do what you want (See comment from Brian M). --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Sefi Ninio wrote: > > Bump... > > Anyone? > > On Mon, Mar 2, 2009 at 3:12 PM, Sefi Ninio wrote: > > > Hmm...

Hmm... No-one can think of a way? I have tried everything I can think of, but nothing makes the menu bar open upwards instead of downwards... I am desperate! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[flexcoders] Re: Menubar sub menu pop up orientation
OK, some updates: What caused me to ask this, was that when I tried it, the sub menu appears to flow off the bottom of the screen. I tried it again, and it seems it only does this for the first time the sub menu appears. The second time, it kinda "found out" that it was flowing off the screen, and on consecutive clicks after the first the sub menu appears as it should (upwards instead of downwards). I hope I am making sense... :) So, an altered question: Any thoughts on how to control the direction the MenuBar sub menu appears (up or down)?
