Wrapping values on a Spark Spinner control in Flex 4

by Peter deHaan on October 28, 2008

in Spinner (Spark), beta2

The following example shows how you can wrap values in a Spark Spinner control in Flex 4 by setting the Boolean allowValueWrap property.

Full code after the jump.

The following example(s) require Flash Player 10 and the Adobe Flex 4 SDK. To download the Adobe Flash Builder 4 beta, check out the Adobe Flash Builder 4 page on the Adobe Labs site. To download the latest build of the Flex 4 SDK, see http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Download+Flex+4. For instructions on using the beta Flex 4 SDK in Flex Builder 3, see "Using the beta Flex 4 SDK in Flex Builder 3".

View source is enabled in the following example.

This entry is based on a beta version of the Flex 4 SDK and therefore is very likely to change as development of the Flex SDK continues. The API can (and will) change causing examples to possibly not compile in newer versions of the Flex 4 SDK.

Updated example code (but not SWF) to compile with Flex 4 beta 2 SDK.
