Re: [flexcoders] Strange multiple select bug in List
Heh, I wish it were that simple :) Yeah, I know how it *should* work, but
the problem is that isn't working. Oh, and you're right about the datatips -
my mistake, should've read the docs closer.
Any ideas why multi-select wouldn't function on a List or Tree? Is there
something about it being inside a Form control?

I'm having a problem getting allowMultipleSelection to work properly. I
have a form with a List control that's populated by an ArrayCollection. I
cannot seem to get multiple selection or dataTips to work. The code for the
list is:
mx:ArrayCollection id= pages
mx:Object name=Home pageID= 1 url=/index.cfm /
mx:Object name=About Us pageID= 2 url=/about/index.cfm /
mx:Object name=Services pageID= 3 url=/services/index.cfm /
mx:Object name=Support pageID= 4 url=/support/index.cfm /
mx:Object name=Contact Us pageID=5 url=/contact/index.cfm /
/mx:ArrayCollection
mx:FormItem label=Pages
mx:List id=navPages labelField=name change=inspect(event)
allowMultipleSelection=true dataProvider={pages }
dataTipField=url showDataTips=true /
/mx:FormItem
I've tried completely replacing the list with a DataGrid, and that doesn't
work either. I've tried setting just the bare minimum attributes for the
List control (and DG) without any luck.
I've tried this using Flex 3 Beta 2 and 2.0.1 on Mac/Safari with player
9.0.47.0. I tried it on Mac/FF as well, and it sort of worked at first
(clicking items didn't cause other items to deselect - so that's more like
another bug really) but when I reloaded the app, it behaved the same way as
Safari. I'm just building the UI at the moment, so there's no other
functionality in the app. This has got me very confused, and I haven't been
able to find any clues. I know about the Tree multiple select issue in Flex
2, is this related? I swear I've used a multi-select List control before.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
