[Xerte] Standard Flash Combobox question

[Paul Swanson]

Xerte's native combo. I don't have Flash (maybe a bit of dash, tho).
Using an rs of combo1, I tried Selection.setSelection(combo1); and
Selection.setSelection("combo1");, but neither seem to work. I also
tried using the id of the interaction. 

 

Maybe something further down is stealing focus. I have, at this point, 3
combos; all on separate interactions; all set to be perpetual. This is
followed by script icons to style the combos to match my screen shot (an
almost perfect match!). And that is followed by an interaction with
several event responses that listen for onKillFocus to grab the
selections. Is there an event that fires when a selection is made? I
would rather not have to have the user Tab or click out of the field
before it changes the list items in the next combo.

I think it is Selection.setSelection(cbo);

 

Xerte's native combo? Or one of your own?

Subject: [Xerte] Standard Flash Combobox question

I'm working on a software simulation in Xerte using screen shots from
our program, and layering Flash combobox controls on top. I'll be using
checkboxes and other controls as well. It's working fine, but I would
like to be able to set the focus to the first control when the page
opens. I see a setFocus() method for the V2 Components, but that doesn't
work for the regular FComboBox. Is there a method for that? Also, is
there an event I can listen for that fires when a selection is made? I'm
currently using onKillFocus, but I would like to be able to do something
like JavaScript's onChange event. I tried that, but Flash doesn't seem
to support it.
