Hi I am trying to change the selected field in the popupmenubutton in response to some other event in the UI.
I am unable to achieve that. In my actionscript code (event handler for another event in another part of the page), i tried to change the selectedField of the popupmenubutton but nothing changes. i also tried invoking invalidateDisplayList() and setting initialized to false, and re-invoking initialize() on the popupmenubutton - nothing makes the control to change the selectedField. Any ideas how i can achieve this. Would manually creating a new instance of MenuEvent.CHANGE and dispatching that event help? any easier/better way?
