RE: [flexcoders] F2 Alpha: Repeaters and dynamic HTML text?

[Ashish Goyal]

Text and image are aligned to the top as designed. Since your bullet image is small, it gives an appearance that text is rendered below the image. If possible create a bigger bullet image by adding some white space on the top of the image. If you want to use the same image then add that image to a VBox and set marginTop to some value say 5.   Your code would look like:   <mx:Repeater>     <mx:HBox>           <mx:VBox marginTop="5">             <mx:Image/>         </mx:VBox>         <mx:Text/>        </mx:HBox> </mx:Repeater>   -Ashish From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Merrill, Jason Sent: Monday, October 24, 2005 1:16 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] F2 Alpha: Repeaters and dynamic HTML text? OK – thanks Ashish, getting closer.  However, the text drops down and to the right from the bullet, and the bullet is completely snug at the far and upper left.    When rendered as straight HTML it doesn’t do this.  i.e.   <mx:Text>       <mx:htmlText>             <![CDATA[<img src=''/>Test HTML Text]]>       </mx:htmlText> </mx:Text>   That positions the text and graphic completely different.   See the differences here: http://cmt.icfconsulting.com/temp/AFDW/AFDWTOC.html   Any ideas?  Thanks.   Jason Merrill   |   E-Learning Solutions   |  icfconsulting.com From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Ashish Goyal Sent: Monday, October 24, 2005 3:53 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] F2 Alpha: Repeaters and dynamic HTML text?   Wrap your Image and Text tag in HBox inside Repeater.   -Ashish   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Merrill, Jason Sent: Monday, October 24, 2005 12:48 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] F2 Alpha: Repeaters and dynamic HTML text? Full of questions today.  So using Flexbuilder 2 Alpha, I want to use a repeater to show text, and so this works fine:   <mx:Repeater id="CMMetricsTextRepeater" dataProvider="{dataService.result.dashboard.categories.category}"> <mx:Image source="@Embed('assets/bullet.gif')" />       <mx:Text text="{CMMetricsTextRepeater.currentItem.label}"/> </mx:Repeater>   However, I want that bullet graphic to appear next to the text, but it doesn’t – the bullet appears, but the text that follows drops to the next line.  So, I thought I would try HTML text, but I’m not sure how to use the dynamic data of a repeater since the text is supposed to be enclosed in a CDATA tag.  For example, this does not work:   <mx:Repeater id="CMMetricsTextRepeater" dataProvider="{dataService.result.dashboard.categories.category}">         <mx:htmlText>             <![CDATA[<img src=''/>             {CMMetricsTextRepeater.currentItem.label}             ]]>         </mx:htmlText> </mx:Repeater>   What happens is the {CMMetricsTextRepeater.currentItem.label} is shown literally since its in the CDATA tag. How do I use repeaters and dynamic HTML text?  Do I *have* to use Actionscript for this?  If so, how?  Thanks.   Jason Merrill   |   E-Learning Solutions   |  icfconsulting.com                                         NOTICE: This message is for the designated recipient only and may contain privileged or confidential information.
