How do you detect the click at the item in the middle of a SpinnerList control?
I.e. the typical situation - when user scrolls the SpinnerList, until the needed item is in the middle and after that clicks it?
When I just add a click
event handler, then I also wrongly detect the situations, when the user just clicks some item to get it displayed in the middle as shown at this screenshot:
Below is my test case code.
Any suggestions please? I've also tried to use a custom SpinnerListItemRenderer
and add a click handler there, but it doesn't change the problem described above.
Main.mxml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:ViewNavigatorApplication
xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
firstView="views.MainHomeView">
</s:ViewNavigatorApplication>
views/MainHomeView.mxml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

<fx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.collections.ArrayList;
private function handleClick(event:Event):void {
trace('selectedItem: ' + _list.selectedItem);
}
]]>
</fx:Script>
<s:SpinnerListContainer>
<s:SpinnerList id="_list"
click="handleClick(event)"
typicalItem="45"
dataProvider="{new ArrayList([1,5,6,10,15,30])}"
wrapElements="false"/>
</s:SpinnerListContainer>
</s:View>
Solved it myself with a custom itemRenderer
-
RedBlack.as:
package {
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import spark.components.List;
import spark.components.SpinnerList;
import spark.components.SpinnerListItemRenderer;
public class RedBlack extends SpinnerListItemRenderer {
public function RedBlack() {
super();
cacheAsBitmap = true;
minHeight = 50;
setStyle('textAlign', 'center');
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, handleClick, false, 0, true);
}
override public function set data(value:Object):void {
super.data = value;
setStyle('color', int(value) % 2 ? 'red' : 'black');
}
private function handleClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
var list:SpinnerList = owner as SpinnerList;
var value:int = int(data);
if (list && value == list.selectedItem) {
trace('clicked in the middle: ' + value);
}
}
}
}
