List Component Select

I've created a custom inline component to fit inside mx:List
in my mxml. I'm using skinned button controls in the component, and
therefore, want to turn off the selection color effects of the
surrounding list control. Can anyone tell me how to do this please?
I've stopped the rollovers but not the selection.
Cheers,
b

Hi
"selectedItems" will give you the items selected.
var data_array:Array = new Array({data:1, label:"yaho"},
{data:2, label:"proper"}, {data:3, label:"myname"}, {data:4,
label:"thatfigure"}, {data:5, label:"fulltight"}, {data:6,
label:"mythigsare"}, {data:7, label:"thatis"}, {data:8,
label:"thisda"});
lst.dataProvider = data_array;
lst.addEventListener("change", mx.utils.Delegate.create(this,
mySelection));
function mySelection(evt) {
var _items = evt.target.selectedItems;
for (var i = 0; i<_items.length; i++) {
trace(_items
.label);

General task list: component selection from BOM - possible in batch input?

Hi experts,
for the assignment of non-stock material to general task lists I have followed the advice from message[6115684|Re: General Task List Components;.
So what I have done is:
- Include non-stock material in BOM
- Assign BOM to general task list header
When clicking on the "Component selection" button in the task list components, I can select a component.
When entering the material number of the component directly though, I get an error: "Material type X and line item type L not compatible" (CO135).
I would like to upload the general task lists with a batch input recording, but I can't figure out how to select components.
Any thoughts?
Kind regards,
Andreas

Hello,
We have the same requirement to load tasklists (change & create). We are using the function modules EAM_TASKLIST_CREATE and EAM_TASKLIST_CHANGE. However, i cannot get a non-stock BOM item to process. Has anyone got this working?
Thanks,
Clay.
EDIT: Found the answer - simply fill in the fields for BOM on the component (STLTY, STLNR, STLKN, and STLAL).

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

List Component - Multi-select retrieve data

Hey there,
I'm having trouble retrieving the value of a multi-select
list component. It always traces the last value selected, but I
need to trace all values to parse the data.
I've been using trace(myList.value);
thanks!

Selecting multiple rows from List-component

Hi
Could someone give me an example how to programmatically select multiple rows from List-component?
I know that this selects one row: lst_example.selectedIndex = 1;
But how about selectin indexes 1,2 and 4 for example?

selectedIndices
A Vector of ints representing the indices of the currently selected item or
items...
var si:Vector.<int> = new Vector.<int>;
si.push(1);
si.push(2);
si.push(4);
list.selectedIndices = si;

How to populate list component via xml file?

There is a TextArea component that should show the name and
the description of the item selected in the list component. But I
dont know how to populate list with external XML and what should be
the coding in flash as well as what should be written in the XML.
Please help.

Here's an xml file listing a couple of brother comedy teams:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<team>
<brothers>
<Marx>
<name>Groucho</name>
<name>Chico</name>
<name>Harpo</name>
<name>Zeppo</name>
<name>Gummo</name>
</Marx>
<Howard>
<name>Moe</name>
<name>Curly</name>
<name>Shemp</name>
</Howard>
</brothers>
</team>
Open a new .fla and save it in the same folder as the .xml
file. Place a List Component on the Stage and name it (in this
case, "comicTeams_list"). In the first frame write the following
ActionScript:
//create XML object and load external xml file
var broList:XML = new XML();
broList.ignoreWhite = true;
broList.onLoad = processList; // this is a function that will
be written below
broList.load("populateList.xml");
function processList(success:Boolean):Void{
if(success){
loadList();
}else{
trace("Load failure");
function loadList():Void{
var broName:String;
var listEntries =
broList.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].childNodes.length;
for(var i:Number = 0;i<listEntries;i++){
broName =
broList.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].childNodes
.childNodes[0].nodeValue;
trace(broName);
comicTeams_list.addItem(broName);
//to make something happen when you click on a name in the
List, create a Listener and function
var broListListener:Object = new Object();
broListListener.change = someAction; //"someAction" is a
function to be written shortly
//add the Listener to the List
comicTeams_list.addEventListener("change", broListListener);
function someAction(evtObj:Object):Void{
var pickedBrother:String = evtObj.target.selectedItem.label;
//write actions here, referencing pickedBrother variable
The names of the Marx Brothers will appear in the box.
This is written in AS2. When you post a question, it's a good
idea include which version of ActionScript you're using.

List component row manipulation

I have two questions regarding as3 list component:
- I'd like to highlight and keep selected the item a user last selected from my list component. I've combed the live reference as well as google and must be typing the wrong search words. I can tell what label and index an item was that was selected but am not finding a way to highlight and keep highlighted the user's choice in the list component.
- Also, I'm exploring the notion of inline buttons within a list's rows. If a user hovers their mouse over a row, a set of small buttons come up the user can click on for further functionality. This may be more of a make your own component answer but I'm exploring it nonetheless. Any thoughts or comments on this?
Thanks!

no something else is going on. Or perhaps you didn't explain your problem clearly.
After servlet b calls getList() you have two servlets each having a reference to the same list

Problem in JSF addRemoveList component selection

Hi,
We are using JSF creator studio 2.0. In our project we are using addRemoveList component to display available and selected items.
We are able to display the selected value from available list to Selected list.
uisng Add and remove buttons of the AddremoveList component.
But we are facing the problem is, we are unable to get particular selected or highlighted value from the SelectedList .
However we are able to get all selected items in bakingBean.
This is very very important for us to move further in our development. I really appreciate for any sort of help.
Thanks,
Ramesh

Hey Andy,
I did it that way (JSC 2):
assuming the add remove component's id is arl and that the components' item-property is bound to a datatable (mysql). The value field is of type Long, the display field is of type String.
Get selected:
get an array of selected objects directly from the component, and then do what ever you like to with that array.
Object[] objSel = (Object[]) arl.getSelected();
int i;
int l = objSel.length;
String str;
for (i = 0; i < l ; i++) {
str = objSel.toString();
Set selected:
Just create an array of objects holding the selected values and pass it to the component. But, attention, you'll need to make sure you're feeding the object array with the correct types of values. In my sample the value is a Long as described above, so I also need to pass in a Long, else the component just does nothing at all.
Object[] selObj = new Object[] {new Long(5), new Long(8)};
arl.setSelected(selObj);
I found this the most easy option to get and set the add remove list selection.
An other quite easy option is to bind the selected-property of the component to any session-bean property of type object-array and then set this sessionbean-property to the approrpiate values. But here you need also to make sure the datatype is correct.

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.

Video, XML and List Component

Hello all,
I have this code that is suposed to take my simple little XML
file and populate it into a List component which in turn when an
item is click it will play the video assigned to it. I have a
custom player built and it works perfectly when I just load in one
movie by hard coding its path into my AS, however when I load the
XML in it only will play the first movie in the list, and will not
load in any other movie when selected.
My code is below. anyone that can help it would be greatly
appreciated. The XML code is at the bottom.

funkysoul,
First thanks for taking a look at what I have. To answer your
question yes I have changed the start up movie in the Array (i.e.
from 0 to 1 or 2 or 3) and it does play that movie first, but again
when I click to load in another movie it does not play anything
else.

Data Grid in a List Component???

Hi there!
I have a populated List Component set to Multiple Selection.
This list contains titles of a magazine issues.
I wish to allow the user to select one or more items in the
list and enter the quantity of the selected issue(s) he/she wants
to receive.
Is it possible to achieve this with a Data GRid integrated in
the List Component or which simplier solution must I contemplate?
I thank you in advance for indicating the best way to
explore.
Best regards,
Gerry

Hi GWD and thanks for responding.
I fully understood your explanations and the example you
provided.
I'll give it a try, for sure.
But I want to know:
- How do I populate a DataGrid Component? Like a List
Component? (you said they are quite the same, I assume methods to
apply are identical...)
-In the same way, I can pull out the data from a DataGrid as
I do for the List, right?
Thanks again!
Best,
gerry

List Component multipleSelection and wmode

I'm trying to use the list component with multipleSelection
set to true; however when I set wmode to transparent in FireFox the
multiple selection breaks. It appears to function properly in IE.
Does anyone know of a workaround for this?
Thanks in advance!

"however, we need wmode set to false"
So what exactly is the problem then... if you need wmode set
to false, then don't add the param and you won't have it.

List Component - Query

Hi all,
I have a list component and I have set up initial query in advance search, which generates the listing of the articles.
Now I am planning to add a search box and upon providing the new search text I would like to search again and utilizing same list component I would like to display new result list.
I looked a the init.jsp and found the place where I think it executes the initial query?
I tried to override source and query string but it is not taking an effect. Also I am not able to find the jar for "com.day.cq.wcm.foundation.List", I wanted to decompile and wanted to see how querys are executed.
List list = new List(slingRequest, new PageFilter());
list.setQuery("Test");
list.setSource("search");
Any pointers would be helpful!
Thanks in advance.

I am workiing on a similiar workflow for an upcoming artilce that dicusses how to query the AEM CQ JCR: http://scottsdigitalcommunity.blogspot.ca/2013/02/querying-adobe-experience-manager-data.h tml .
This sample app queries the JCR for customer data, supports filtering, and displays the result set in a grid contol located in the client:
Although this article will not be posted until Feb 23 --I can provide a few pointers. Like most workflows in computer science -- you can perform a task in more than 1 way. I find that you get more power when you wrap the JCR Query Manager API within an OSGi component and develop the service to expose an operation that queries the JCR and returns the result set.
You can return the result set to the client and display the data in a web page - similiar to the pic above. Of course -- you can do the same workflow using sling -- its a matter of preferece IMHO. I prefer to develop OSGi services to do the heavy lifting and let the client call the service and display the data.
For example - to call the OSGI service from a client:
com.adobe.aem.CustomerService cs = sling.getService(com.adobe.aem.CustomerService .class);
String XML = cs.getCustomerData(filter) ;
In this workflow -- the query results are stored in an XML DOM and returned to the client -- where the data is parsed and displayed. The complete artilce will be posted next Fri.
Here is a snippet of the backend Java logic that is wrapped in the OSGi and queries the JCR that is called from the client:
public Document getCustomerData(String filter) {
                    Customer cust = null;
                     List<Customer> custList = new ArrayList<Customer>();
                    try {
                       Session session = this.repository.loginAdministrative(null);
                       // Obtain the query manager for the session ...
                 javax.jcr.query.QueryManager queryManager = session.getWorkspace().getQueryManager();
                 //Setup the query based on user input -- 3 options are   All Customers,
                 //Active Customer or Past Customer
                 String sqlStatement="";
                           //Setup the query to get all corresponding customer nodes -- which are of node type nt:unstructured
                 if (filter.equals("All Customers"))
                           sqlStatement = "SELECT * FROM [nt:unstructured] WHERE CONTAINS(desc, 'Customer')";
                 else if(filter.equals("Active Customer"))
                                     sqlStatement = "SELECT * FROM [nt:unstructured] WHERE CONTAINS(desc, 'Active')";
                 else if(filter.equals("Past Customer"))
                                    sqlStatement = "SELECT * FROM [nt:unstructured] WHERE CONTAINS(desc, 'Past')";
         //Execute the query and get the results ...
                 javax.jcr.query.Query query = queryManager.createQuery(sqlStatement,"JCR-SQL2");
                 javax.jcr.query.QueryResult result = query.execute();
                 //Iterate over the nodes in the results ...
                 javax.jcr.NodeIterator nodeIter = result.getNodes();
                 while ( nodeIter.hasNext() ) {
                                          //For each node-- create a customer instance
                                          cust = new Customer();
                                          javax.jcr.Node node = nodeIter.nextNode();
                                          //Set all Customer object fields
                                          cust.setCustFirst(node.getProperty("firstName").getString());

I choose the tab named insight tab
i select Air china in the Air lines List
i select 2006 in the time list, ok for the report
if i select 2007, all the companies are deselected, i need to reselect air china.
How to avoid this behaviour ?

Creating search field for a list component

i have created a glossary of terms using the list component and populating it via an XML file.
what i would like to do is create a search field that as the user types in the search bar if there are any matching entries in the list, the focus/selection jumps to that particular item in list. i don't want to clear the list just go to the item that matches.
i would like it to be predictive so if i have these entries:
samson
seek
seether
south
and the user types "s" in the search box to the first "s" entry in the list (samson) is selected, if they type "se" the selection jumps to the first entry with "se" in it (seek) if they type "seet" the selection jumps to "seether" and so on.
i have absolutely no idea how to do it, but more importantly...is this possible?
i have attached the sample files that i have been working on.
thanks in advance

You need the lowercase. the keyCode of the keybpardevent returns the key's uppercase charcode. So the A-key allways returns 65. Therefore convert keycode to char and to lowercase before appending after what's allready there in the field.
To have the user not have to type the words with proper casing, convert the label to lowercase before doing the indexOf search.
