Get selected panel and content

(2008-10-29 - views: 2323)
Q: Is there a way to know which one of the panels was selected, to get its contents ?
A: Yes, it is. First of all, to get the panel's contents, simply use the content property of the panel. When a panel is selected, you can use the onPress or onRelease events to know about it (depending on the navigation mode - "press" or "release") and get the reference to the panel itself (evtObj.item). Next, get the contents of the panel: evtObj.item.content.

myEventListener = new Object();
myEventListener.onRelease= function(evtObj:Object):Void {
trace("onRelease event on panel: " + evtObj.item);
}
componentInstance.addEventListener("onRelease",myEventListener);


To know which one of the panels has been selected, place all the panels inside a list (an Array object) and compare the selected panel to the ones from the list, until you get to the panel you want and retrieve its index.

Get selected panel and content AS3
posted by florodebat on 2009-09-23
The code is similar to the AS2 example excepting the event code. Please find bellow the AS3 code you will have to use in order to get the selected panel.

import com.jumpeye.Events.AccordionPanelEvents;
accordionPanel.addEventListener(AccordionPanelEvents. ITEM_RELEASE, releaseHdl);

function releaseHdl (evt:AccordionPanelEvents):void {

trace(evt.item.content+" -- is the same as -- "+menuItemsList[getItemIndex(evt.item)].content);

}


I hope this helps
