Well, too late for Shally Virk, but someone else might need it:

ItemSelection active or not:

public function linkBar_itemClick(event:ItemClickEvent):void
{
	var bar:LinkBar = event.target as LinkBar;
	var len:uint = bar.numChildren;
	for (var i:int = 0; i < len; i++)
	{
		Button(bar.getChildAt(i)).enabled = (i!=event.index);
	}
}

Well, too late for ‘Shally Virk’, but someone else might find it useful:

Linkbar button active or not:

public function linkBar_itemClick(event:ItemClickEvent):void
{
var bar:LinkBar = event.target as LinkBar;
var len:uint = bar.numChildren;
for (var i:int = 0; i

Nice tutorial but the thing i’m desperately trying to get at is how to determine the index of the item which has the mouse over it, lets say the mouse hoves over which item, that is the question.
Any suggesstions will be appreciated.
