This will be a really easy one for someone i'm sure. I just need to know the event that will allow me to call a funciton every time the pop up window is opened.
<mx:TitleWindow xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="400"
height="120" title="Change Offer/Event Name" showCloseButton="true" close="PopUpManager.removePopUp(this)"
horizontalScrollPolicy="off" verticalScrollPolicy="off" creationComplete="init()">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.controls.Alert;
import mx.events.CloseEvent;
import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
private function init():void{
txtNewName.text = parentApplication.cmbOfferName.selectedItem.TEMPLATENAME;
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Canvas width="374" height="74" horizontalScrollPolicy="off" verticalScrollPolicy="off">
<mx:TextInput id="txtNewName" x="72" y="16" width="240"/>
<mx:Label x="6" y="18" text="New Name"/>
<mx:Button x="317" y="16" label="Ok" width="47" click="checkName()"/>
</mx:Canvas>
I have the init() function called in creationComplete which will bring in the value the first time the window is opened but I need it to call the function every time the popup is opened. I have tried, activate, creationComplete, addedToStage, which all dont work.
Oh just to note as well, I cant just set the text input's text property to be bindable to the combobox as I will potentially be selecting from multiple comboboxes depending on what canvas i am viewing.
Thanks in Advance
I managed to solve it myself. I did in fact use 'addedToStage' in the TitleWindow Component. The only problem with using addedToStage is that I was trying to populate a textinput in the popup window so this had not been rendered yet. To get round this I simply added a bindable variable which I added the selected combobox value to and added the variable as the dataprovider for the text field on the textInput.
