Hi A DropDownList in a Callout(Button) calloutContent closes the Callout after selecting an item in the DropDownList... (using SDK4.11 in a web application - testing with FlashDebugPlayer 11.9)
This happens because the DropDownManager adds mouseDown triggers to the systemManager which than closes the callout as well when the DropdownList closes The only workaround I found to prevent this is to get a reference to the systemManager in my view which uses the Callout and override the MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN and SandboxMouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN_SOMEWHERE and stopImmediatePropagation() there.. this works, i can select an item without the Callout gets closed but the downside is that the Callout stays open when i click somewhere outside the calloutContent what normally would close it. Re-clicking the calloutButton closes the Callout though.. But anyways, i find this solution not optimal because override the systemMangers mouseDown and stopImmediatePropagation() there could have other influences on other components in the view and i would have to check with a flag if the Callout is actually open etc... So my question is if anyone sees another workaround for this problem or if this could be considered as a bug? -- View this message in context: http://apache-flex-users.2333346.n4.nabble.com/DropDownList-in-a-Callout-Button-closes-the-Callout-after-selecting-an-item-in-the-DropDownList-tp4204.html Sent from the Apache Flex Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
