[flexcoders] MenuBar Question (Relating to Styles)

2007-02-25 Thread nextadvantage
I have a couple MenuBar related questions... 

1. I am trying to make a dark colored menubar with white text, and have 
white drop down lists with black or dark text. It seems both text 
styles are referenced by the color: style. How can I make the text 
color work the way I would like?

2. How can I set the menu item spacing to be distributed across the 
lenght of the menubar evenly... I would like the menubar padding to be 
more than 20 or so pixels currently displaying...

Thanks in advance for any help

The MenuBar is hard-coded to place the first MenuBarItem (and the
dropdown) at 10 pixels.  If you open up your FlexforFlash.zip (or go
through fdb), you can see there's an internal '__marginWidth' variable
whose value is set to 10.

[flexcoders] menubar question

2005-07-28 Thread Robert Brueckmann
I'm just playing with the MenuBar component and I can't seem to figure
out how to make the first menu flush with the left side of my
app...there always seems to be a padding of 10 pixels before the start
of the first menu item in the menu bar...I've tried setting a handful of
attributes to 0 and none of them seem to move the first item flush to
the left...I'm sure I'm an idiot and am overlooking something...anyone
know how to heck to do this?  I thought marginLeft="0" would do the
trick...not so much.
