spotlightXML Live Example



Purchase a bundle of Tree3D, Spotlight XML and Spotlight Dataprovider and save $20! Click here

spotlightXML is a Flash component for ActionScript 3 that allows you to easily filter any data component based on attribute based XML objects for example Zerofractal tree3D or Yahoo! Astra Tree.

This is an ideal companion for our Tree3D component available here

Our component acts as a Middleware between your data an the component you intend to bind it to:



Usage
Implementing spotlightXML is done by simply adding the following code (taking a tree3D as an example):
spotlight.sourceXML = myXML;
function onChange(e:Event){
tree3D.loadXMLData(spotlight.destinationXML);
}
spotlight.addEventListener(spotlightEvent.SPOTLIGHT_CHANGE, onChange, false, 0, true);

Alejandro,


Thank you very much for your help and advice.


The spotlight component works perfectly.


As you pointed out, it was the Yahoo Astra Tree and now everything is functioning great.

Hi, as I wrote you via email, the text cutting of has nothing to do with the spotlight component but rather with Astra?s tree. To point it out I sent you a vainilla fla file without the component and it still is cut off.


I?ll kindly go through the web to see how others go around this issue in yahoo?s tree and write back at a later time.


All the best,


Alejandro.

Hi,


I’m using Spotlight XML with the Astra tree and the tree’s text width is very limited showing only a small amount of characters before cutting off the rest of the text.


The tree’s text is not cut off just using the yahoo astra tree by itself without the spotlight attached.


The code below works but only after you rollover each item, the text then being revealed.


Is there any way to to have a function extend the width of all the text at start?


myTree.addEventListener(ListEvent.ITEM_ROLL_OVER, rollOverItem);


function rollOverItem (evt:ListEvent) {
// Get the cell renderer for the item we just rolled over
var cr:TreeCellRenderer = myTree.itemToCellRenderer(evt.item) as TreeCellRenderer;
cr.textField.width = 300;
}

Please send me your email and I’ll send you a working example. But its failsy simple, just add the following code wonce your loader has loaded the xml:

	spotlight.sourceXML = new XML(e.target.data);
