You can see the issue in question here:
http://dbb3375.cias.rit.edu/comboBox/prototype.html
As you can see, where the comboBox overlays the MovieClip, the comboBox is visible, but on click, the list that opens is behind the MovieClip. It is very important for my design that the ComboBox be inside the MovieClip (in this SWF it is misaligned for demonstration purposes).
Relevant code here:
current=myRoot.createEmptyMovieClip(anInstanceName,myRoot.getNextHighestDepth());
current.attachMovie("dataBox_mc","holder",currentMC.getNextHighestDepth());
current._x=200;
current._y=200;
currentCombo=myRoot.createObject("ComboBox","filterBox"+anIteration+"_mc",myRoot.getNextHighestDepth());
currentCombo.setSize(200,20);
currentCombo._x = 70;
currentCombo._y = 300;
currentCombo.dataProvider = ["SELECT A FILTER CRITERIA","Accessibility","Location","Medium"];
I’m not sure that anyone can help me, since everyone seems to have trouble with the Components, and the ComboBox in particular. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
