Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The TileBase class is the base class for controls that display data items in a sequence of rows and columns. TileBase-derived classes ignore the variableRowHeight and wordWrap properties inherited from their parent class. All items in a TileList are the same width and height.

This class is not used directly in applications.

Property Detail

direction

property
direction:String

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The direction in which this control lays out its children. Possible values are TileBaseDirection.HORIZONTAL and TileBaseDirection.VERTICAL. The default value is TileBaseDirection.HORIZONTAL.

If the value is TileBaseDirection.HORIZONTAL, the tiles are laid out along the first row until the number of visible columns or maxColumns is reached and then a new row is started. If more rows are created than can be displayed at once, the control will display a vertical scrollbar. The opposite is true if the value is TileBaseDirection.VERTICAL.

This property can be used as the source for data binding. When this property is modified, it dispatches the directionChanged event.



Implementation
    public function get direction():String
    public function set direction(value:String):void

maxColumns

property 
maxColumns:int

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The maximum number of columns that the control can have. If 0, then there are no limits to the number of columns. This value is ignored if the direction is TileBaseDirection.VERTICAL because the control will have as many columns as it needs to to display all the data.

The default value is 0 (no limit).



Implementation
    public function get maxColumns():int
    public function set maxColumns(value:int):void

maxRows

property 
maxRows:int

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The maximum number of rows that the control can have. If 0, then there is no limit to the number of rows. This value is ignored if the direction is TileBaseDirection.HORIZONTAL because the control will have as many rows as it needs to to display all the data.

The default value is 0 (no limit).



Implementation
    public function get maxRows():int
    public function set maxRows(value:int):void

measuringObjects

property 
protected var measuringObjects:Dictionary

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Cache of measuring objects by factory.

Constructor Detail

TileBase

()Constructor
public function TileBase()

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Constructor.

Method Detail

adjustListContent

()method
override protected function adjustListContent(unscaledWidth:Number = -1, unscaledHeight:Number = -1):void

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Called from the updateDisplayList() method to adjust the size and position of listContent.

Parameters

unscaledWidth:Number (default = -1) — The width of the listContent before any external scaling is applied.
 
unscaledHeight:Number (default = -1) — The height of the listContent before any external scaling is applied.

createItemRenderer

()method 
override public function createItemRenderer(data:Object):IListItemRenderer

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Get the appropriate renderer, using the default renderer if none is specified.

Parameters

data:Object — The renderer's data structure.

Returns
IListItemRenderer — The item renderer.

drawTileBackground

()method 
protected function drawTileBackground(s:Sprite, rowIndex:int, columnIndex:int, width:Number, height:Number, color:uint, item:IListItemRenderer):DisplayObject

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Draws the background for an individual tile. Takes a Sprite object, applies the background dimensions and color, and returns the sprite with the values applied.

Parameters

s:Sprite — The Sprite that contains the individual tile backgrounds.
 
rowIndex:int — The index of the row that contains the tile.
 
columnIndex:int — The index of the column that contains the tile.
 
width:Number — The width of the background.
 
height:Number — The height of the background.
 
color:uint — The fill color for the background.
 
item:IListItemRenderer — The item renderer for the tile.

Returns
DisplayObject — The background Sprite.

drawTileBackgrounds

()method 
protected function drawTileBackgrounds():void

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Draws the backgrounds, if any, behind all of the tiles. This implementation makes a Sprite names "tileBGs" if it doesn't exist, adds it to the back of the z-order in the listContent, and calls drawTileBackground() for each visible tile.

makeListData

()method 
protected function makeListData(data:Object, uid:String, rowNum:int, columnNum:int):BaseListData

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Creates a new ListData instance and populates the fields based on the input data provider item.

Parameters

data:Object — The data provider item used to populate the ListData.
 
uid:String — The UID for the item.
 
rowNum:int — The index of the item in the data provider.
 
columnNum:int — The columnIndex associated with this item.

Returns
BaseListData — A newly constructed ListData object.

scrollHorizontally

()method 
override protected function scrollHorizontally(pos:int, deltaPos:int, scrollUp:Boolean):void

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Adjusts the renderers in response to a change in scroll position.

The list classes attempt to optimize scrolling when the scroll position has changed by less than the number of visible rows. In that situation some rows are unchanged and just need to be moved, other rows are removed and then new rows are added. If the scroll position changes too much, all old rows are removed and new rows are added by calling the makeRowsAndColumns() method for the entire viewable area.

Not implemented in ListBase because the default list is single column and therefore doesn't scroll horizontally.

Parameters

pos:int — The new scroll position.
 
deltaPos:int — The change in position. This value is always a positive number.
 
scrollUp:Booleantrue if scroll position is getting smaller.
