Combobox dropdown height

Hi,
Anybody know, how to increase the cell height of a combobox dropdown.
Thanks in advance.

Search more on Custom cell renders you will get your answer.
The process is create your own cell renderer then set it as cell renderer for combobox and use it.

Combobox dropdown functionality

Hi,
I have a combobox dropdown for a Column in my table. it displays "codes Description" something like this
01 Apparel
02 Houseware
03 Kitchenware
I have a query to get this data in the dropdown from a oracle table.
Select LEVEL1_CATEGORY_CD, CATEGORY_DESC From PRODUCT_CATEGORY1
Order By PRODUCT_CATEGORY1.CATEGORY_DESC
I am using setboundsql() method of the Column class in Quicktable.
http://quicktable.org/doc/quick/dbtable/Column.html
I have also tried getting the query data in a hastable as a key/value pair and fill the combo box.
what i need is when user selects something from the dropdown like "02 Houseware" i need only 02 to be filled into my cell. is this possible? right now its filling "02 Houseware" in the dropdown. can you explain stepwise as i am new to swing API.
Thanks.

I guess I am close but doing something silly. thats how I learn.
here is my code snippet,
final JComboBox comboBox;
         comboBox = new JComboBox( model );   // model.addElement(rs.getString(1));
         comboBox.setEditable(true);
         comboBox.setSelectedIndex(-1);
      comboBox.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
     if (comboBox.getSelectedIndex()==-1) return;
     String s= comboBox.getSelectedItem().toString().trim();
    comboBox.setSelectedItem(s.substring(0,2));
      c.setCellEditor(new DefaultCellEditor(comboBox));   //c = dBTable1.getColumn(1);My vector has elements like, "01 Apparel".
I am able to get these in the dropdown. when i select something, its filling, 01 Apparel . after selecting if i click the cell again, then its changing to 01(as i needed). else after selecting if i lose focus and go to other cell, the value remains as 01 Apparel.
this might be trivial for someone who knows Swing but I am gettting frustrated...have to read complete tutorial this weeknd :)
Thanks again.

ComboBox (dropdown) Need Help Adding URL links!!!

I am somewhat of a newbie....Anybody know how to use URL
links in a ComboBox dropdown menu? NEED HELP!!!!!!! I'm trying to
make it so that after selecting an option, the user is directed to
another URL within the same browser window. Using flash 8!
Thanks,

Im a bit a newbie myslef but i think you make flash
commuincate to javascript wich will make the browser goto the URL.
do a search on getURL and javascript together and i am sure
you will find something.
And when slecting to redirct i think its on?(onPress)
something so maybe look throught the help section in flash 8 and
look at componets. I think there is some actionscript help there.
Sorry i could not be more helpful.

Combobox dropdown doesn't refresh

Hi all!
I have a comboBox problem. Please test this simple code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical"
    creationComplete="init()">
    <mx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
            [Bindable]
            private var dp:ArrayCollection;
            private function init():void
                dp = new ArrayCollection(["one", "two"]);
        ]]>
    </mx:Script>
    <mx:ComboBox id="cb" dataProvider="{dp}"/>
    <mx:Button label="click me" click="dp = new ArrayCollection(['three', 'four']);dp.refresh()"/>
</mx:Application>
What happens is that the dropdown list of the combobox doesn't show the new values. I guess I'm overlooking something here.
Any advice?
Thanks!
Dany

Hi Archimedia,
I have run the sample code that you have sent....but I could see no problem I could see the combobox being refreshed when the button being clicked.
However it is always safer to remove all the elements in the ArrayCollection using the removeAll() method before assigning the new values.
Try the below code and check whether it's working for you...?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical" creationComplete="init()"
>
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
Bindable]
private var dp:ArrayCollection;
private function init():void
dp =
new ArrayCollection(["one", "two"]);}
private function refreshComboBox():void
if(dp != null){
dp.removeAll();
dp.refresh();
dp =
new ArrayCollection(['three', 'four']);}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:ComboBox id="cb" dataProvider="{dp}"/>
<mx:Button label="click me" click="refreshComboBox()"/></mx:Application>

How do I limit typing in a ComboBox Dropdown list

I’ve created a form and added a ComboBox which generated the code:
this->DateList = (gcnew System::Windows::Forms::ComboBox());
this->SuspendLayout();
// DateList
this->DateList->Font = (gcnew System::Drawing::Font(L"Microsoft Sans Serif", 12,
System::Drawing::FontStyle::Bold, System::Drawing::GraphicsUnit::Point,
static_cast<System::Byte>(0)));
this->DateList->FormattingEnabled = true;
this->DateList->Location = System::Drawing::Point(91, 7);
this->DateList->Name = L"DateList";
this->DateList->Size = System::Drawing::Size(121, 28);
this->DateList->TabIndex = 0;
this->DateList->SelectedIndexChanged += gcnew System::EventHandler(this,&Form1::DateList_SelectedIndexChanged);
And then I added some custom code to add the items to the DateList
for ( int x = numSnapShots - 1 ; x >= 0 ; x-- )
String ^ item = gcnew String ( SnapShots[x]->dateStr );
this->DateList->Items->Add(item);
this->DateList->SelectedIndex = 0;
All is working fine, I can select any Snapshot date I want from the list.
The problem is that I can also type anything I want in the ComboBox.
The dropdown of 12/31/2014 is in the list, but I can also type “Last Year” and of course the code doesn’t know how to handle that.
What item in the combobox do I have the change to what to disable the user’s ability to type in the combobox?

David,
Maybe I didn’t look hard enough, but I could not find a way to create a C# WinForms project and include my existing C++ code as is and then interface the form front end to the existing C++ logic.
I did find relatively easy ways for a C++ CLI Windows Forms Application to communicate with standard C++.
I had to limit the data types that I passed pack and forth, but the link up was relatively easy.
I have externals in Form1.h which can then simply call the primary C++ interface:
extern std::string str;
extern std::string strPage;
extern std::string strDate;
extern
void Initialize();
extern
int RebuildPage(int);
Initialize() is called right after Initialize Component() to load all the data into memory and build the first HTML page.
if (RebuildPage(7))
RefreshThePage();
Exists for most of the button clicks and dropdown selections.
The number tells the C++ code what form control was clicked and a nonzero return tells the form to refresh the page.
Refresh the page is a simple Form1.h method that does just that, changes the labels on the form header and refreshes the HTML string to the new HTML data created by the C++ logic.
void RefreshThePage(void)
this->webBrowser1->DocumentText =
gcnew String( str.c_str() );
this->ViewLabel->Text =
gcnew String( strPage.c_str() );
this->DateLabel->Text =
gcnew String( strDate.c_str() );
This allowed me to perform all of the complex operation in the existing code with minimal changes, like changing the fprintf’s that created the original HTML files into str.append logic to pass the pages directly to the form.
It’s true that all of my other code was batch style console applications, but the form front end was not totally difficult to learn and the simple fixes like David Lowndes just suggested makes the coding even easier.
Thanks again Dave.
I created a very complex program to make visualizing mutual fund trends very simple.
The problem with the batch console application was that if I wanted to stop highlighting symbol ABC and wanted to start highlighting XYZ, I had to modify a data file by hand and then rerun the batch process to recreate the entire website on my local
drive so I could not instantly see the change. Using a form front end and building and displaying the pages interactively make that process instant.

Combobox dropdown menu bug in FlashPlayer 10

Hello,
I discovered that the combobox drop down menu do not drop UP
in fullscreen with a screen format 16/10.
Could you confirm ?
See sample on
http://gdfsuez.visitonweb.com/flash/awirs.html

Hi,
Google should definitely help you with this. I am sure that there may be people here who will guide you through each step in this forum. But, you learn only when you do things yourself. Please take some time to go through the links in google. You will definitely find all the things required to solve your problem.
1) JDBC examples to populate your dropdown.
2) DHTML+Javascript to handle selection/display of fields.
You can come here for help only after you have tried to some extent and not able to proceed with something. Trust me, you should be able to do it yourself.

Combobox dropdown closes when refreshing dataprovider

Hi,
i'm having a small problem when filtering a dataprovider of a
combobox and then refresh it.
When the dropdown is open before the refresh() call, it'll
close itself when refreshing the dataprovider.
I've tried overriding the close() method but close() doesn't
get called during this close operation.
Also, the close event is not dispatched.
Anyone knows if it's possible to prevent the dropdown from
closing ?

I don't think its possible, because the items in the list
could completely change and it needs to close so it can remove the
old lists and add the new items.
You couldn't hold me to that thought its just my
guess.

ComboBox / DropDown with UIX

Hello People,
I'm bulding an application using Business Components and UIX JSP for BC, how can I put a ComboBox or a DropDown Control that contains all the information of an attribute of a table.
regards

>
I use the messageChoice element and works fine for me. But for it works we must to define the bc4j:viewObjectDef element into bc4j:registryDef element, is it correct?
Yes, you do need the viewObjectDef in the registryDef.
>
Well, if it is, we must to put two parameters into bc4j:registryDef element that are the name of the view and the rangeSize of the view. The rangeSize determines the amount of records to fetch, is it correct? If it is, how can I fetch all records?
I believe that the rangeSize parameter is optional and that omitting it means "return me all rows". Try leaving it off and see if that returns everything.

New Skinning For ComboBoxes

Does anyone know a good resource for Skinning Comboboxes? I know basic skining, and have been able to skin the text fields, and the 'openButton' for comboBox, however I am looking to do more.
Specifically, I want to skin the BG of the dropDown so it will look similiar to this: http://screencast.com/t/NzY5YjYx however, with the BG scaling properly.
Right now the BG is a MC i made in Flash (cs4) with 9 Slice enabled, and turned on. The skin that I currently have set on the box is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Any help to what i am doing wrong, or a point to a good resource would be really super. Thanks for the help.

Hi,
If you set the constraints rather than width and height it should work
<mx:Image source="@Embed('src/com/mindspark/SkinTest1/assets/testSwf.swf#box2')" id="background"
top="1" left="1" bottom="1" right="1"/>

Problems skinning/styling ComboBox component

So the first image is the design brief, and below it is my attempt so far. Some ways to go, and the limitations and scarce documentation of this process is getting to me. So i'm putting a call out to see if anyone's well across this process and could assist, or step me through it?
been a while since i skinned a component in AS2, and I remember I prefered to write my own components rather than go through this process at the time. but i am hoping to use the built-in Flash component this time.
So what I need help with is:
Adjust scrollbar scrubber and track width, hopefully add padding around scrubber, and hopefully this would resolve the issue of losing the scrubber's black border on the right.
Resolve issues with the combo-button (what's that white border doing there?)
Style font correctly in combo-button
Increase list row height
Add dotted line between list rows
(I'm ignoring the blue numbers)
If anyone can help with even just one of those issues, i'd love to hear from you.
Info about my attempt so far:
I have skinned several clips, such as scrollThumb*, scrollUpArrow*, scrollDownArrow*, comboDownArrow*, etc.
I have styled with the following:
comboBox.setStyle("backgroundColor", 0x504C4B);
comboBox.dropdown.setStyle("backgroundColor", 0x504C4B);
comboBox.setStyle("themeColor", 0x1F90AE);
comboBox.setStyle("color", 0xC4C0BF);
comboBox.setStyle("textSelectedColor", 0xC4C0BF);
comboBox.setStyle("textRollOverColor", 0xC4C0BF);
comboBox.setStyle("alternatingRowColors", [0x504C4B, 0x504C4B]);
comboBox.setStyle("borderStyle", 'none');
I have attached the fla I've worked with so far in a zip.
Thanks for your help!

Well I resolved this merely by lowering my expectations!
Leaving this unanswered because I am hoping there must be answers to these issues out there for future reference.
But for now, my comboBox looks like this:
And i achieve this by skinning some clips, and adjusting my styling code:
combo.setStyle("backgroundColor", 0x504C4B);
combo.dropdown.setStyle("backgroundColor", 0x504C4B);
combo.setStyle("themeColor", 0x1F90AE);
combo.setStyle("rollOverColor", 0x46bbda);
combo.setStyle("color", 0xC4C0BF);
combo.setStyle("textSelectedColor", 0xFFFFFF);
combo.setStyle("textRollOverColor", 0xFFFFFF);
combo.setStyle("alternatingRowColors", [0x504C4B, 0x504C4B]);
combo.setStyle("borderStyle", 'none');
combo.text_mc.setStyle("borderStyle","none");
combo.text_mc.setStyle("themeColor", 0x00FF99);
combo.text_mc.setStyle("borderColor",0xFFFFFF);
combo.text_mc.setStyle("color",0xC4C0BF);
combo.dropdown.setStyle("color",0xC4C0BF);

Powershell Script Dropdown List Passes Argument to Expiration Date

Hello,
I am trying to configure this script so that the user has a choice to make. If the user chooses "FTE", then the script proceeds to the next function. If the user chooses "Contractor", he is then taken to the expiration date portion
of the script. How do I configure this script to flow in that manner?
# Edit This item to change the DropDown Values
[array]$DropDownArray = "FTE", "Contractor"
# This Function Returns the Selected Value and Closes the Form
function Return-DropDown {
$Choice = $DropDown.SelectedItem.ToString()
$Form.Close()
#Write-Host $Choice
$MyChoice = $Choice
#Write-Host $MyChoice
$Script:Choice = $DropDown.SelectedItem.ToString()
$Form.Close()

Thanks in advance for your help.

Combobox scrollbar width and item list padding

Hello, I am running an application on a touchscreen, and the default combobox is way too small to be used.
I have tried skinning the combo box component to make the scrollbar wider, it didn't work.
I tried combobox.dropdown.horizontalScrollBar.width = 300;
Nothing happens.
Is there any way to do this?
Also, I needed to increase to font size of the list items, which I was able to do. However now all the list items are squished fairly close together. Is there a way to widen each list item/ add padding around the text?
Or heck, is there even a custom combobox control that will allow me to do this? I really need this, but can't figure it out.

Hi Siva/Viswas,
Problem got solved.I fixed width in pixels and the width does not change.
But as Viswas said,if the text is long then the user will not be able to see entire text..How to solve this problem other than showing a different text to user(As the user does not want that way).
I tried by dynamically creating a tool tip i.e, i bound the tool tip of list box to a attribute and i was setting the attribute to the selected text in list box.But unfortunately tool tip does not show up.Do you guys worked on dynamically generating a tool tip or else can you tell how to solve this problem.
Thanks and Regards,
Pradeep
