List Component - return number of item clicked

I have populated a List component with data from an XML file. I simply want the index of the line clicked returned so I can gotoAndStop to that Frame number. I have found the 'selectedItem' property but I don't want the text, I want the number of the line. Thanks.

You said you wanted the index of the line clicked, so you don't need to look further than the selectedIndex value. There is no data property for the selectedIndex value (which is merely a number);
trace(event.target.selectedIndex);
Now if your intention is to associate this with a frame number, then you have to adjust for index values starting at 0 and frame numbers starting at 1.

Using a List Component to create a photo gallery.

This feels like a lot to be asking but i'm gonna go ahead and
ask to see what happens.
I'm trying to figure out how to use a list component to
select 6 items from a large list, display the words to the 6
selected items (in a text field), then finally (by pressing a
button) I would like to load the 6 corresponding pictures for the
selected items into a seperate frame. If there is anyone that could
point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. I
have been trying to find information online about programming the
List Component but haven't had any luck. Is there a book that
anyone recommends that could help me? I've been doing simple
animations and websites in flash but i'm now looking to learn some
actionscripting as well. Thanks.

Hi PinkPowerRanger,
Per my understanding that you have two fields in the table "Date and Time picker" which is Date/time type and another is "Item ID", you need to get the Month from the Date field to display in the X-axis and count(Item ID) related to each
month to display in the Y-Axis, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can do this by create two calculated fields to get the month and year values from the Date/Time field.
Details information below for your reference:
Right click the main dataset to select the "Add Calculated field", specify an name of the new calculated field and add the expression in the field source as below:
Year: =Year(Fields!Date.Value)
Month: =MonthName(Month(Fields!Date.Value))
Add the three field in the Chart as below and remember in the Value area you have got the Count(ItemID) but not SUM(ItemID):
Preview you will got the chart like below:
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

How to print a gift return label if only know the return number and order number

I have a macbook pro, it's a gift, and I want to return it. But at first time, I forgot to print the return label, now I know the order number and return number, when I click "Print return label", it appeared I need to sign in, but I don't have a apple ID

Call Apple sales and ask them. The number should be on your order receipt or look at the Contact Us link at the bottom right hand corner of this page.

List component trouble

Hello!
I have some trouble with the list component in my
application. The thing is that the keyboard interaction don't work
proper. I've found out that it is my function "transferParameters"
who spoils it. The function looks like this:
Object.prototype.transferParameters = function(ref)
var i;
for(i in this)
ref[ i ] = this[ i ];
I am using the function to duplicate objects without making
the instances refer to each other.
What should I do to get the keyboard interaction to work?
Regards Toben

Nope that doesn't seem to solve the problem. I tried putting
the listListener function and all the variable definitions outside
of the onData, but still have the same problem! Is there a thing
with the List component that you have to click into them before
they're activated or something? Or might it be something with
Firefox? It works almost all the time in IE.
Thanks,
Mukul

List component scroller eventlistener for finished scrolling ?

I have a list component which contains an item renderer. I would like to know if it is possible to detect when the scoller that is built into the List has finished scrolling can fire an event. Is there a built in eventlistener ?

Arrghh, not the right one. I am also moving the scroller bar by using a linkbar to tab the scrollbar to different positions. I need to fire an event when the scroller has reached those new positions. The FlexEvent.CHANGE_END only works when you use the scroller manually.

How can I select an item from a list component with a seperate button

This is a repost, I decided it'd probably be better here than
in the general discussion board. I will try to delete the other
one.
Hello Everyone,
This is my first post here. I am trying to figure out how to
select an item within a list component with a button. This button
is calling a function. I have searched for the past 3 hours online
and I can't find anything about it. I thought perhaps I could set
the selectedItem parameter, but that is read only, and I believe it
returns an object reference rather than something like a number so
even if i could set it, it would be pointless. I also found a get
focus button, thought that may lead me somewhere, but I think that
is for setting which component has focus currently as far as typing
in and things like that. I am lost.
Basically I am looking for a way to type this
myList.setSelected(5); where 5 is the 5th item in the list.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Never mind found it. It is the property called selectedIndex
and it is writable

Cannot return to message list while in a message without clicking on "compose new message icon" and then cancelling it.

After updating to 8.1 from 8 i cannot return to my message list from inside a message without clicking on the "compose new message" icon and then canceling out of that.
Also, where it used to say return, it now says "Edit" and the word "Message" on the top of the screens is scruched together.

Cannot get more than 8 item in list component

Hi,
I can't get more than 8 items in list component using getItemAt(), it returns null. I will search more for this but no result.
Please Help me here to move to next step.

If you're asking if you can overall, yes you can:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/components/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9c65b32-7f41.html
If you're asking if you can do this in the same context, off-screen, no you still get the same error as the .enabled property.
I hate to throw a hunch but I feel as though Adobe is employing something I'm used to in native iOS programming (Apple Devices). In lists they have something called "dequeue". It's the reason an extremely long list scrolls smoothly. What it does is render ONLY the rows that are in view. When a row is about to scroll off view it deallocates it from memory and then recreates the next row. They do this so you only ever have the current amount of viewable rows in memory and it speeds up scrolling. Although, I can make property changes to items in an iOS list that's off-screen so they don't have this issue ;(. Just food for thought.
I'd submit it to the bugbase and see what Adobe states. They may say they intend you to get the item in view, alter it and then go back to your previous position. That would be silly but at most I can tell you I definitely get errors trying to access an element outside my view. They're probably not used to items needing visual toggles when you can't even see them.
edit:
On a further note I tried the scrollToIndex() method, tried to disable, that much worked fine. The second I then scrolled back to the previously selected index the list screwed up.
I even daisy chained functions a second apart (30 frames worth of wait). I scrolled down and that worked so I waited 1 second. I disabled the visible item I wanted to and that worked so I waited another second. I scrollToIndex(0) to get back to the top of the list, the list blew up. Random items (several items) were disabled and the one that I explicitly disabled was enabled.

How to limit the number of items in a KPI Status list web part?

How to limit the number of items in a KPI Status list web part? There is no paging option for Business Category Status list or any limit can be made by changing the Item limit in default view unlike other SharePoint List web parts. So How to achieve it?
Kindly help.

Hi,
According your post, I know you would like to set the item display limit in Status List web part.
In the web part, the number of items to display is based on the view which you selected when configuring the web part. The default view for status list is status list view.
However, I am not able to limit the items’ display number of the status list view. After changing the items limit, the list item displayed would not match the number specified by Item Limit. Thus, it is not possible to limit the number
of items in the Status list web part.
It could be a potential issue in SharePoint 2010.
We will log this issue to our suggestion box. As after the submission, we may not have any time guarantee when the fix may be released, but it may come out on next cumulative update.
Appreciate your time and efforts.
Thanks.

How to limit the number of items that a list control can hold?

Hi,
I am using a Flex3 List control for one of my projects.
I add drag & drop functionality to it, so that i can drag & drop elements from one control to another.
How to limit the number of items that a list control can hold / can be dropped in a list control ?
- Sen.

1. Listen for the dragdrop event on the control you are dragging onto.
2. check the length of the items in the dataprovider - if it exceeds your maximum override the default drop action with e.preventDefault(); (assuming you used e for the event on the handler).
Regards,
Mark.

Highlighted default item in list component???

I can't seem to find how to have an item in a list component
highlighted by default. I'm sure its right there in the docs
staring me down, but I dont see it.
I've found scrollToIndex method, but that doesnt seem to
actually highlight the index item. How do I highlight an index item
in a list in as3?
Thanks,

Oh, I forgot to mention that I am using ActionScript 3.

Error: List View Threshold. The number of items in this list exceeds the list view threshold, which is 5000 items.

Hi, i had created a SharePoint List in cloud ( office 365) using List Template.
List template contains 12000 items taken as template from SharePoint on Premise.
I am getting this error message, in SharePoint Online (Office 365)
The number of items in this list exceeds the list view threshold, which is 5000 items. Tasks that cause excessive server load (such as those involving all list items) are currently prohibited.
How to resolve it, to get data in my SharePoint list, any help will be appreciated.

With O365 lists over 5k items are now officially supported but they will have limited behaviour due to the threshold. There are no workarounds or options to increase the threshold either temporarily, for specific users or for the list itself as you have
with on-prem.
You'll need to remove enough items to get it below the threshold limit, add indexed columns to support indexed views, then re-add the items again. This article is for 2010 but the section around indexed columns and views is still accurate:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262813(v=office.14).aspx
It may be possible to add the indexes on your on-prem list where you can increase/avoid the threshold, then re-export the list. That would rely upon the list creation script adding indexes before it uploads items but it's a logical assumption.
