My question is about the drag and and drop image between two non-list based containers, how we give the image item(obj) to other container ?
or from a tile list to a non-list based container.

i need help in this regard because i can’t find any resource for that.

@Romain,

I don’t believe that the Spark List supports data effects. Feel free to file an enhancement request at http://bugs.adobe.com/flex/ and the Flex team will consider it in a future release.

Hi,

Is there a way to use mx:DefaultTileListEffect with s:List (with a TileListLayout)?
Or what is the equivalent when using Spark List () ?

Thanks

@Brian Russel Davis,

Correct, I don’t believe that the itemsChangeEffect is supported for Spark components. I didn’t see this filed as an enhancement or feature request at http://bugs.adobe.com/flex/ or at the newer http://ideas.adobe.com/ site, so I posted an official request at ideas.adobe.com; “Spark components should support itemsChangeEffect which was added for MX controls in Flex 3″.

Please feel free to vote/comment directly in the ideas.adobe.com page above so that the Adobe Flex management team knows it is important to you.

Thanks,
Peter

If you are looking for an animation effect to play when you filter or sort a data collection bound to a TileList there isn’t one available that I know of. However the adobe example FlexStore has a custom built solution to this and uses a canvas container to lay out the items in your collection and a custom effect that plays when the data is filtered or sorted. See source at: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/samples/flex_store/

Look for ProductCatalogPanel.mxml

It’s not for the feint of heart however – but will teach you some new Flex technique…

Hi,

I am using Panel as a Drag controller with ArrayCollection as a data provider to the Panel. Dragging Item from Panel to the TileList works fine. The issue is only remove dragged items from TileList.

I have tried -

private function deleteItem():void {
                var toRemove:Array = [];
                for (var i:int = 0; i < myTileList.selectedItems.length; i++)
                    toRemove.push(myTileList.selectedItems[i]);
                for (i = 0; i < toRemove.length; i++)
                    myDataProvoider.removeItemAt(myDataProvoider.getItemIndex(toRemove[i]));
            }

But as it doesn’t uses data provider, the above approach won’t works.

Please help me in this issue as I was new in Flex.

Thanks,
Dock
