Maybe event.target.selectedItem? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ethan Miller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 18, 2006 6:10 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Getting Data Out of Rollovers in TileLists
Greetings - I'm trying to get data out of a dataProvider (the 'orientation' field) used by a tileList, on rollover, not on selection. But, as there's no "selectedItem" in the returned event I'm not sure how to reference the rolled over item. The docs suggest using itemRollOver but the compiler claims not to know about it... Here's some sample code (using an alert to see if the data is being caught), my question is how to refernce the fields in the dataProvider (of the rolled over item) after e.currentTarget ... <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.controls.Alert; import flash.events.Event; import mx.events.ListEvent; private function showInfo(e:Event):void { Alert.show(e.currentTarget.itemRollOver.orientation, "Data Found...", Alert.OK); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:ArrayCollection id="mediaLibraryDP"> <mx:Object orientation="landscape" space="RGB" date="07/18//2006" source="Apps/Content/Images/back.png"/> <mx:Object orientation="landscape" space="RGB" date="07/18//2006" source="Apps/Content/Images/side.png"/> <mx:Object orientation="landscape" space="RGB" date="07/18//2006" source="Apps/Content/Images/stomach.png"/> <mx:Object orientation="landscape" space="RGB" date="07/18//2006" source="Apps/Content/Images/couple.png"/> </mx:ArrayCollection> <mx:TileList dataProvider="{mediaLibraryDP}" rollOver="showInfo(event)" rollOut="hideInfo()"> <mx:itemRenderer> <mx:Component> <mx:Image source="{data.source}"/> </mx:Component> </mx:itemRenderer> </mx:TileList> Thanks! ethan -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
