Custom Combo box

Dear all,
If any one developed custom combo box in flash 7. Pls share
ur files for reference... Urgently needed for me..help me pls
Thanks
thil

It is certainly possible.
You've got to decide whether you want to try and change the functionality of JComboBox to do it, though. This may seem the most straightforward first step but may not be the most appropriate; are you really talking about a control for selecting a single item from a list? Do you need the ability to edit the selected value directly?
If you're not after these sorts of things then it may be quicker simply to create a custom component that shows a popup menu when you click a button, for example.
Getting this to look a bit like a combo box wouldn't be too hard for most look and feel implementations.
If you're sure you're really after a JComboBox for this functionality then there are various approaches that can be tried.
Hope this helps.

addChild(c)

The error is indicating a problem with a removeChild() method call, and none of the code you show has that as far as I can see. So you probably need to look elsewhere for the problemed code.

Combo box in "Filter by Custom Properties"

Hi to all,
I create some custom metadata properties properties in order to classifie the documents in KM.
This metadata properties has a set of Allowed Values, so the value is selectable with a combo-box in Detail box of KM.
Now I have to enable the Filter by Custom Properties with the combobox in place of textfields.
How to do?
Regards,
Giampaolo

What you want is not the Filter by Custom Properties but the Filter by Predefined Properties.
In you search options configuration add your properties to the predefined properties list and you'll get your combo-box.
To configure your search options go to:
System Administration -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management -> Content Management -> User Interface -> Search -> Search Options Set

Custom paint for a combo box?

Is there a document anywhere that describes all the parts you need to paint for a combo box? We have a particular need for a special presentation, but combo boxes can be rather complicated to paint all the parts correctly.
TIA!

don't know of a document, but an example of a (color) modified comboBox is here

you just have to copy all of the code (it does run)

How can I make the combo box turn to the value of black.

When the show button is pressed (and not before), a filled black square should be
displayed in the display area. The combo box (or drop down list) that enables the user to choose the colour of
the displayed shape and the altering should take effect immediately.When the show button is pressed,
the image should immediately revert to the black square, the combo box should show the value that
correspond to the black.
Now ,the problem is: after I pressed show button, the image is reverted to the black square,but I don't know
how can I make the combo box turn to the value of black.
Any help or hint?Thanks a lot!

Hello,
does setSelectedIndex(int anIndex)
do what you need?
See Java Doc for JComboBox.

IPhone SDK - What is the equivalent of a combo box

I have a screen where there are quite a few items which are of the multiple-choice type. In other platforms i use a combo box (pick lists) to do this.
On the iPhone SDK the only thing that comes close is the UIPicketView which is ugly IMHO. it takes too much real estate and too heavy.
Is this is the only control available now?
Also does the UIPicker come with an associated control which will launch the picker? What i mean is on other platforms and on the web there is a text field with a button with a down arrow next to it. Clicking either on the text field or the down arrow drops the list down. Is there a similar control on the iPhone which when clicked launches the picker OR do i have to create a button or a custom view which will launch the picker?
Thanks for reading this and for your feedback.

I do not believe there is an equivalent of -D in the DB JVM, a possible solution is:
Load a properties file into the DB using Loadjava, then open this file from your Java code using Properties.load(), then iterate the properties calling System.setProperty().

How do I make a combo box in LabVIEW 6.1?

I have found reference to the combo box on this site, but it is not in the LabVIEW help for 6.1. Is there a custom VI I can use?
Thanks,
Steve

The combo box was introduced with LabVIEW 7 and is a special type of string control. Prior to 7, everyone used either a ring or enum control. These are all numeric controls and in order to get the string value of the selected item, you have to use the Strings[] property and use the value of control to index the string array. I've attached a 6.1 VI that shows the different controls and how to index the string value to use them in a case statement. For connection to a case statement, it is not required to get the string value - it can be wired directly to the selector.

hi,
as i mentioned, you would require to use a custom renderer for this, for this
//Class subclass the JFrame and has a JList in it
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.Vector;
public class ListRendererTest extends JFrame
 private JList lstMenu;
 private DefaultListModel defaultListModel;
 private JScrollPane scrollPane;
 private Vector listVector;
 public ListRendererTest()
 init();
 addComponents();
 showFrame();
 public void init()
 lstMenu = new JList();
 defaultListModel= new DefaultListModel();
 lstMenu.setModel(defaultListModel);
 scrollPane = new JScrollPane(lstMenu);
 listVector = new Vector();
 MyListData m1 = new MyListData();
 m1.setName("Rakesh");
 m1.setOnline(false);
 listVector.addElement(m1);
 m1 = new MyListData(); //represents each User instance
 m1.setName("Makesh");
 m1.setOnline(true);
 listVector.addElement(m1);
 for (int i=0;i < listVector.size(); i++)
 defaultListModel.addElement(((MyListData)listVector.elementAt(i)));
 lstMenu.setCellRenderer(new MyListRenderer()); //set custom renderer
 public void addComponents()
 getContentPane().add(scrollPane,BorderLayout.CENTER);
 public void showFrame()
 setTitle("List renderer test");
 setSize(300,300);
 setLocation(200,200);
 setVisible(true);
 public static void main(String args[])
 new ListRendererTest();
}The above class is the Container which houses the JList in it, it uses two other classes, MyListData which is used to represent each user instance ( username, and information about whether he is online) and MyListRenderer (custom renderer).
// Represents each user instance //
public class MyListData
 private String name;
 private boolean online;
 public void setName(String name)
 this.name = name;
 public String getName()
 return name;
 public void setOnline(boolean online)
 this.online = online;
 public boolean isOnline()
 return online;
//custom list renderer
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class MyListRenderer extends DefaultListCellRenderer
 private MyListData myListData;
 public Component getListCellRendererComponent(JList list, Object value, int index, boolean isSelected, boolean cellHasFocus)
 myListData = (MyListData)value;
 setText(myListData.getName());
 setBackground(myListData.isOnline() ? Color.red: Color.white); //check if online, if so show in different color
 setForeground(isSelected ? Color.blue : Color.black);
 return this;
}hope that helps.

02-04-09 | 02-04-09 | a | $4,154
03-04-09 | 03-04-09 | b | $6,813
04-05-09 | 04-05-09 | a | $9,875
05-06-09 | 05-06-09 | b | $6,813
06-04-10 | 06-04-10 | a | $6,813
07-04-10 | 07-04-10 | b | $9,875
08-06-10 | 08-06-10 | a | $9,875

Step2
Then i go format cell to format/custom date to year & month
Eg1: Year u2013> 02-04-09 convert to u2018YYYYu2019 (2009)

2010 | June | a | $9,875
2010 | June | b | $6,813
But the problem is when i insert to combo box,use u201Cfilter Row u201D, i excpectation will display only 2009,2010

hi,
your created data
step 1
I create excel data like this
year___ | month_ | Product | revenue
02-04-09 | 02-04-09 | a | $4,154
03-04-09 | 03-04-09 | b | $6,813
04-05-09 | 04-05-09 | a | $9,875
05-06-09 | 05-06-09 | b | $6,813
06-04-10 | 06-04-10 | a | $6,813
07-04-10 | 07-04-10 | b | $9,875
08-06-10 | 08-06-10 | a | $9,875
22-06-10 | 22-06-10 | b | $6,813
In this, year and month both are same data, make the diffent data like year 2009, 2010 And month Jan, Feb, March, ...Etc
and also one more check you formulas on month and year, select correct source data, destination data for compoonent..
OR
from above, to create a date column and convert date-->year, date--> month and Explore it.
All the best,

Combo box not behaving like it should

I have a form in which I have 4 combo boxes that have more or less the same choices, however there is one that is common to all 4 (E078).
When "E078" is selected in any of the combo box, a new combo box will appear (and a white rectangle will be hidden so that the new combo box title can be seen). It works when I select that in one or more combo box, however to make it disappear I have to select some other choice in the same combo box twice!!! If I select anything only once, it will not make the new combo box hidden, but if re-select something (same or another choice) then the combo box will disappear!
I am at lost, and would be very thankful if someone could make it work seamlessly. I mean it works, nut it is just inconvenient and I cannot tell the user to make select something else twice if they want the field to disappear.
Here is my form:
https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=WjF6aV8IUuBX2w8iZN3k0g

When you use event.value in a combo box's Validate event it does not give you the export value, which is what you want. It is easier to use place the code in a custom Keystroke script where you can use the event.changeEx property to retrieve the export value of the selected item. See the documentation for more information: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.607.html

I had came across another workaround as stated here.
[http://www.jroller.com/santhosh/entry/make_jcombobox_popup_wide_enough|http://www.jroller.com/santhosh/entry/make_jcombobox_popup_wide_enough]
The popup's is having enough width to show all items. However, it is not perfect still, as the width is little too much. I still can see some extra space at the tailing of the list.
The workaround is as follow.
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.Vector;
// got this workaround from the following bug:

Populate 2nd combo box based on value selected in 1st combo box

I am still using Acrobat 6 though I may be upgrading soon to Acrobat 8. I have a form with two combo boxes, the first "state" has values of MN and WI. Based on which value the user picks I would like to populate a "county" combo box with lists of counties that we deal with.
Thanks,
Gene

One can set the option and export value using an arry: // document level script // Master List of Lists // Each entry in this object listeral is the name of a State //Manually enter the State Names into the state field combo box // The associated value is the item list, where each item is a name value pair, [<County> and [county code, zip code]] // state: ["county name", ["county code", "zip code"]] var oStateNames = {MN: [["-", ["", ""] ], ["St. Louis", ["MNStl", "55001"] ], ["Carlton", ["MNSCrl", "55002"] ], ["Pine", ["MNPin", "55003"] ], ["Cook", ["MNCok", "55004"] ] ], WI: [["-", [" ", " "] ], ["Douglas", ["WIDou", "55005"] ] , ["Bayfield", ["WIBay", "55006"] ], ["Burnette", ["WIBur", "55007"] ], ["Ashland", ["WIAsh", "55008"] ] ] }; //SetCountyEntries() on keystroke entry in state field function SetCountyEntries() { if(event.willCommit) { // Get the new counties list from the Master List // Since the selection is being committed, // event.value contains the State name var lst = oStateNames[event.value]; // Clear the county list if there are no counties for the selected state this.getField("ee.address.county").clearItems(); this.resetForm(["ee.address.code", "ee.address.zip"]); if( (lst != null) && (lst.length > 0) ) this.getField("ee.address.county").setItems(lst); // set opiton and export value } } // end document level script For the combo box "ee.address.county" one can create an array from the export value to populate the county code and zip code // custom keystroke for county combo box if(event.willCommit & event.value != "") { // split county and zip codes var aCodes = this.getField(event.target.name).value.split(","); this.getField("ee.address.code").value = aCodes[0]; this.getField("ee.address.zip").value = aCodes[1]; } // end custom key stroke code

How do you use the combo box to populate a text box

I am a beginner when it comes to Java Script. I have viewed many different discussions, look at a lot of "help" articles dealing with Acrobat 9 and Java Script, but only to be left confused and dazed. I am hoping someone will be able to tell me how to write a script that will populate a text box that is on my form with the combo box selection's export value...
Thanks

If you want the text box to be read-only, just set it up with the following custom calculate script:
// Set this field value to the value of the combo box
event.value = getField("combo1").value;
but replace "combo1" with the actual name of the combo box field.
If you want something else, post again with more information.

Edit Items in TestStand Sequence File Combo Box?

Hello All,
I am creating a basic user interface VI Project, based off of the examples included with TestStand. In the "Simple" example, there is a Open Seq File button, and an associated combo box to select the Sequence File to run. For my application, I would like to limit the sequence file options from which the operator can choose (not allow the operator to browse the entire hard drive to find a sequence file). Using basic Labview functions, I would have done this with a regular combo box, and use the "Edit Items" option to load file options into the drop-down menu. However, the TestStand UI combo box does not allow this, presumably because it is an ActiveX control, and configuration is different from normal Labview functions. Is it possible to pre-load the TestStand UI combo box with allowed sequence files? Or, if there are other suggestions on how to accomplish the requirement, I am open to them as well.
Thanks in advance,
GSinMN

One idea is to use the native LabVIEW controls. Then hide the TestStand UI controls and update them from the events triggered by the native LabVIEW controls. I have had to do this before on UIs when the customer wanted a certain look and feel.
So basically have the native LabVIEW combo box set like you want. When the user makes a selection, in the event for that selection update the hidden TestStand Sequence File Combo Box witht he correct sequence file.
Another option is to use events for the Sequence File Combo Box and just filter and force certain behavior.
Hope this helps,

Combo box in activity journal reporting

Hi!
I have made settings in IMG -> Customer relationship management -> transactions -> Activity Journal -> Industry-Specific Fields. So instead of upside, downside etc it is now only a yes/no field.
This works fine on the CRM server. But I want to have theses entries on the mobile client. I tried to download some adapter-objects with transaction R3AS4 but no success.
Do someone know the adpater-object or is it working completely different in this case?
Regards,
Michael
PS : SAP CRM 4.0

Hello Laura,
The first issue is resolved with Fixpack 1. You can find the download here:
http://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm
It is possible that issue #2 will be resolved with FP1. I'd recommend testing the behavior after applying the fixpack.
If you still see the problem, then just to clarify issue #2, let me know I have understood correctly:
1. Department web service: refreshes on load, returns list of Depts to SWF
2. Sales web service: refreshes on load, returns total sales for selected Dept in Combo Box.
3. Initializing the SWF file will update the Department list, but sales are blank
4. Once Dept is populated, this should insert the first Dept name into the Sales param to trigger the Sales query
5. Sales does not fire and no data is returned
6. Manual selection of the Dept name combo box then triggers the Sales query to fire
7. Data is returned.
Best regards,
Jon Teopaco
