Rollover event on a ButtonBar?

programming flash
1

I have a buttonbar and with this function

private function myPortfolio_itemClick(evt:ItemClickEvent):void {
            var title:String = "[" + evt.index + "] " + evt.label;

I can can things to happen when a certain label from the butonbar is pressed
like:

if(evt.label == "Home"){
                siteContent.htmlText = Index.htmlText;    
                }

Now, the problem is that I also want a different Rollover event for each different label in the buttonBar.

Unfortunatly I cant seem to get this to work.

With this script

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:ButtonBar xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
        <mx:Script>
                <![CDATA[
                        import mx.controls.Button;
                        import mx.core.IFlexDisplayObject;
                        import mx.core.Application;
                       
                        private function bb_rollOver ( evt:MouseEvent ) : void
                        {
                                Application.application.bb_rollOver ( evt );
                        }
                       
                        private function bb_rollOut ( evt:MouseEvent ) : void
                        {
                                Application.application.bb_rollOut ( evt );
                        }
                       
                        override protected function createNavItem( label:String, icon:Class = null ) : IFlexDisplayObject
                        {
                                var newButton:Button = super.createNavItem ( label, icon ) as Button;
                                newButton.addEventListener ( MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, bb_rollOver );
                                newButton.addEventListener ( MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, bb_rollOut );
                                return newButton;
                        }
                ]]>
        </mx:Script>
</mx:ButtonBar>

I have been able to get a rollOver event on the buttonbar in total, but not on the specified part that i want..

If anyone can help me with this, or knows a solution… that would be great :slight_smile:
