set a value on HeaderController...textbox

NatashaManzuiga — Fri, 06 Jun 2014 12:44:35 GMT

Hi, I'm trying to set a value in text box inside the Header Controller from the SearchWidget:

var id:Number = ViewerContainer.getInstance().widgetManager.getWidgetId("HeaderController");
var bWidget:IBaseWidget = ViewerContainer.getInstance().widgetManager.getWidget(id, true) as IBaseWidget;

It works for other widgets...but I get nothing with HeaderController....
Can u help me?

Are you just looking for the to change the search prompt text?To do that, you just need to add the following:

<labels>
<searchprompt>Search Prompt Text</searchprompt>
</labels>

It is not the Search Prompt Text..My problem is that on runtime I need to get a value from Search Results and I want to set it in the input box of the HeaderController....And I'm trying and trying without success....:confused:
I hope someone can help me...

   //=====================================================================
   // Get UI Widget by Label.....,. (Make controlContainer PUBLIC)
   //=====================================================================
   public function getUIWidget(widgetLabel:String):IBaseWidget
   {
    for (var x:Number = 0; x < controlContainer.numElements; x++)
    {
     var widget:IBaseWidget = controlContainer.getElementAt(x) as IBaseWidget;
     if (widget.widgetTitle.toUpperCase() == widgetLabel.toUpperCase())
      return widget;
    }

    return null;
   }
