I would like to set the selected image of a tabbar as soon as the user touches the UITabBarItem.
Currently there is a small delay before the highlight appears. Is there a way to get UIControlEvents at a UITabBarItem level ?

I have a spark List control that shows a side-list on ListEvent.ITEM_ROLL_OVER event. Basicaly it shows the contents of the item you are hovering. I would be also using ListEvent.ITEM_ROLL_OUT to hide it again but I want the user to be able to click on it (the sidelist) too.
So, i use MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT and check the event.relatedObject's id to see where the cursor went. I added an invisible Rectangle overlaying the sidelist that's a bit larger so it gains focus 1st. But it doesn't.
Googling around, I think that the Spark Rectangle cant gain focus as it doesn't implement InteractiveObject. What should I use?
My logic:
protected function listOUT(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var obj:Object = event.relatedObject;
if (obj.id != "focusRect")
{
sidelist.visible = false;
}
}
My struggle is to keep the side-list visible if the user moves the cursor from the main list to the sidelist.
Any other suggestions outside my approach are also welcome.

Red are the invisible Buttons
On roll_over select the item in the mainlist, display the sidelist
based on the selecteditem in the mainlist.
Hide the sidelist when there is no item selected in the main list.
Deselect items inthe mainlist if the sidelist loses focus.
Furthermore mx.core.UIComponent is the lightest component that dispatches focus events.
I need to show a popup layer on a scene, creating a semi-transparent background layer that will also prevent touch events propagation. I am using the latest cocos2d-x v. 3.0-alpha-0.
What I want to achieve is a popup layer that fully handles touches (eg. buttons, menu items, scroll views, etc.), laying on a background layer (for design purposes), that covers the current scene. All items in the scene should not respond to touches any more.
Is this achievable using the new EventDispatcher class? I've been able to disable all touches to the main scene, but all instances of MenuItem that live in the scene are still touchable and active.
How can I achieve this? And, also, how can I create a touch listener that prevents all touches to the main scene but not to the popup?
You can disable menu items by setting setDisable property of menuitems to false.
Example
_menuItem->setEnabled(false);
For Layers use setTouchEnabled property
_backGroungLayer->setTouchEnabled(false);
Make sure that popup layer is not child of layer you want to disable.
To disable all items in menus do this
Suppose _menu contain various menuitems.
CCARRAY_FOREACH(_menu->getChildren(), item)
{
item.isEnabled=NO;
}
if you want to disable selected items just give them tags.There is no need to make any list.
I had the same problem and solved it with mm. It was dirty, but it worked:
Create a button using ccui.button.
Set the button size to your screen size.
Add this button as a background to your popup layer.
This will prevent any thing behind it being clicked.
By default, all CCMenu's have a set priority (kCCMenuHandlerPriority = -128) in cocos2d 2.1. So in a class (usually a CCNode descendant) that wants to swallow everything and preempt anything i do like in this dialog sequencer example below :
- (void)onEnter {
backdrop_.visible = self.isBackDropShown;
MPLOG(#"Adding self as a swallower touch delegate, above the rest of the planet.");
[[[CCDirector sharedDirector] touchDispatcher] addTargetedDelegate:self priority:_dialogTouchPriority swallowsTouches:YES];
for (CCMenu *mn in _menus) {
mn.touchPriotity = _dialogTouchPriority -1 ;
}
[super onEnter];
}
where _dialogTouchPriority is kCCMenuHandlerPriority-1 by default. It will be served before everything 'below'. It is a bad hack (cocos2d internals could be changed and break this), i know , but bullet proof. Use carefully, make certain you only ever have one of these in your scene.
In VBA programming, is it possible to hide the ToolTipText for a Slider Bar?
The picture below shows a Slider Bar on a form in a Microsoft Access database. I would like to hide the ToolTipText in the red circle.
The reason I want to do this is because the Slider Bar cannot show decimal values (example: 0,1), so I want to display the values in a box next to the slider after they are scaled to decimal values. I know how to do this, but not how to hide the ToolTipText for the Slider that shows only integer values.
There is no easy way to remove that indicator as it's not exposed through the control itself.
However, there are a couple of solutions:
Subclassing the control and intercepting Windows messages
Not for the faint of heart, complex and overkill, but you theoretically could intercept windows messages and drop those that correspond to the tooltip.
This is not easy in VBA at all, and I wouldn't even try it.
If you feel like delving into this, have a look at an example in KB278379
Just display something else.
More interesting is the ability to change the displayed text to something else:
To change the text, handle the Scroll event and update the slider's Text property:
Private Sub MySlider_Scroll()
MySlider.Text = "Awesomeness: " & (MySlider.Value * 7.89)
End Sub
The event is not visible from the control's properties themselves, but if you open the IDE and select the Slider from the list of controls, you will be able to create the code for handling the Scroll event:
I am creating icon menu (toolbar with icons) in gtk# and I do not know why my application always selects (highlights) first icon (every parameter is default). Is there a way to have all icons unhighlighted (highlight only when cursor moves over icon or user clicks on icon)?
Every answer will be very much appreciated.
It looks like it has keyboard focus. You probably want to give another widget the default focus.
I have created a custom TitleWindow whcih i use as a popup. The contents of the popup are created dynamically depending on a selection a user makes from a datagrid.
My problem is, my datagrid is in another custom component whcih is toward the bottom of my page so when a user clicks one of the items the popup is displayed however with half of it out of sight at the bottom of the page.
Is there a way to position a popup so that it displays at the top of the page?
I know at least two things you can use to position a popup, though there might be more.
When you place a popup you can choose in which parent component to place the popup:
PopUpManager.createPopUp(this.parent, TitleWindowComponent);
In the component itself:
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(this);
I wanted a help tooltip type popup (with help text) to appear next to the icon that opened it. In the end I used move(x,y) to move the window where I wanted it. To get the coordinates to place it, use globalToLocal:
var globalX:Number = localToGlobal(new Point(myIcon.x, myIcon.y)).x;
var globalY:Number = localToGlobal(new Point(myIcon.x, myIcon.y)).y;
toolTip.move(globalX + myIcon.width, globalY);
That puts the window just to the right of the icon, myIcon.
