MrShepard, I didn’t create the Tree component in Astra, so I’m not too familiar with it. Most likely, you want to create a custom cell renderer that changes the text color itself. Maybe there’s a selectedTextFormat style, though. I’m not sure.

Hi Josh, I wonder if you can help me with your Astra Tree component?

What’s the best way to change the text color of the selected item?

I’ve tried an event listener, but it only changes the text color on press…then it goes back to the regular textFormat style.

Thanks for the help…and thanks for sharing the components.

Looks good, but I wish they would of used Flash 7 or 8. Backwards compatibility would be much better, despite what Adobe says about Flash 9 having like 95% of users, I dont buy that inflated number. But it depends on your users and how likely they are to have the Flash 9 Player.

ArneO, we are exploring the possibility of implementing some Flex components, but we have not yet announced any dates for the release of an Astra Flex library.

When will there be a Flex version of the components?
