(2007-08-29 - views: 14930)
Q: How can I set the anti-alias for the text of Drop Down (Tree) Menu's items
A: In order to access the textfield of the Drop Down (Tree) Menu v3 to set the anti-alias option or other option you may want to modify, you have to use the actionscript below:

var listener = new Object();
listener.onDrawComplete = function (evtObj){
    //call recurent function for the first menu.
    parseMenu(dropDownMenu.subMenus)
}

//this is a function parse each menu .
function parseMenu(arg){
    //arg = menu reference

    //get the length of the menu items array
    var len = arg.itemsMc.length
    //go on each menu item
    for (var i =0;i<len;i++){
        //check if this menu item will open another submenu . If yes we will check that submenu
        if (arg.itemsMc[i].myMenu!=undefined){
            parseMenu(arg.itemsMc[i].myMenu);           
        }
       
        //to reference the textfield you have to write arg.itemsMc[i] ... for example made the border visible for all items
        //you can now apply anything you want on this textField.
        arg.itemsMc[i].myText.border = true;
    }
}

//add listener to menu
this.dropDownMenu.addEventListener("onDrawComplete",listener)
