[Flashcoders] List component for touchscreen
Hi, I am looking at a project which uses a list of data for a touchscreen PC. Sometimes the data-sets for the lists get quite large. Can anyone recommend the best way to handle this - using Flash AS3. I will need to have quite chunky skins for fingers rather than a mouse. I also want to look at implement some simple gesture type controls to scroll the list and pick items. I keep finding lots of multi-touch stuff, but only need single touch for now. Are there any API's or frameworks that might handle this? Thanks Glen ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] List component transparentBackground?
If you are using Flash IDE, at least you can do this manually. To see the effect go to Library > Component Assets > ListSkins > List_Skin and CellRendererSkins > CellRenderer upSkin then change the background fill alpha to 0. -- Kenneth Kawamoto http://www.materiaprima.co.uk/ On 13 April 2010 16:21, Carl Welch wrote: > Is it possible to make the List Component's background color transparent. > > I googled and found this but it doesn't appear to work: > > list.setStyle("backgroundDisabledColor", "false"); > list.setStyle("borderStyle" , "none"); > > is there something else I need to do? or is it even possible. > > thx. > -- > Carl Welch > http://www.carlwelch.com > 805.403.4819 ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
[Flashcoders] List component transparentBackground?
Is it possible to make the List Component's background color transparent. I googled and found this but it doesn't appear to work: list.setStyle("backgroundDisabledColor", "false"); list.setStyle("borderStyle" , "none"); is there something else I need to do? or is it even possible. thx. -- Carl Welch http://www.carlwelch.com 805.403.4819 ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Re: [Flashcoders] List Component
I'm not saying the components aren't good, I've not used them myself, but maybe he can't afford it. They do cost money. Also if we let the components do everything for us, it makes us lazy developers. What he needs to do can easily be accomplished in a short amount of time (depending on skill). At the end of the day it's his call (or his bosses), I was just giving him another option. Cheers, Ryan On 12/2/05, Al Veldhuis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hey Ryan, > > I know. I know.
