Menu control in flex with xml data
Hi,
I have two problems in flex menu control......
---1. Is there any way in which we can handle null values in menu control...
in the below code snippet some menuitems value in the xml is equal to null,
if it is null i would not like to display in dropdown i.e
private function createAndShow():void {
' '
' '
menu.show(10, 10);
}
--->2. In menu item click event
using event.item.@label....gives label of the menu clicked
Is there any way in which we can get the main menu label, submenu1 label and submenu2 label using menu item click event
mainmenu ----->submenu1------------ ---------- ---------- >submenu2
| | |
| | |
label label of submenu1 label of submenu2
of main menu
In menu control of flex...................... .......... ...
Thanks & Regards

But in menu item click event is there any way in which we can get main menu label + submenu1 label +
event.item.@label gives only SubMenuItem A-2
But i want main menu label with submenu label also
event.item.@label gives only ------> submenu label
<menuitem label="MenuItem A" >
<menuitem label="SubMenuItem A-1" visible="false" includeInLayout="false"/>
<menuitem label="SubMenuItem A-2"/>
</menuitem>

And also the code u gave me checks only the label of menu menu but not submenu
if
<menuitem label="null" type="check" toggled="true"/>
<menuitem label="MenuItem A" >
<menuitem label="null" />
<menuitem label="SubMenuItem A-2"/>
</menuitem>
if
<menuitem label="null" type="check" toggled="true"/>
<menuitem label="MenuItem A" >
<menuitem label="null" />
<menuitem label="SubMenuItem A-2"/>
</menuitem>

MenuItem default itemrenderer does not support tooltip.
But by implementing custom intemrenderer, you can do this.
Look at the emaple code. I am sure you can adopt to suit your needs.
