combobox default value

fatenodeh — Mon, 20 Jan 2014 11:15:19 GMT

Hello,

I have a widget with three combo boxes. i need to keep a specific value as a default value.
i added the following two line of code in fillComboBoxGovs() function

cbGovName.selectedIndex=1;          fillComboBoxDist();

i attached the code of the widget. its should be a little update but i'm new in flex and stuck with this.

Thank you

Faten,

That makes a lot more sense then. OK all you need to do is call fillComboBoxGovs() from the widgetOpenedHandler function then.

Don't forget to click the Mark as answer check on this post and to click the top arrow (promote).
Follow these steps as shown in the below graphic:

Faten,

Before you made the change I suggested did the first combobox have the values still when the widget was reopened and the issue was only that the default value was not selected (did the combobox still have all the values)?

Yes before and after your suggestion the combobox has values. After the update you suggest the default value displayed but widget seems hang-up the first time i open it. And work correctly the second time i reopen it.

faten,

If the combobox is still populated then instead of running the fillComboBoxGovs() again, try just setting the selectedIndex on the Combobox instead, on the widget open function.
