792 List component

Description

Property; specifies the number of pixels the list can scroll when List.hScrollPolicy is set to

"on". The list doesn’t precisely measure the width of text that it contains. You must set

maxHPosition to indicate the amount of scrolling that the list requires. The list does not

scroll horizontally if this property is not set.

Example

The following example creates a list with 200 pixels of horizontal scrolling:

var my_list:mx.controls.List;

my_list.setSize(150, 100);

my_list.hScrollPolicy = "on";

my_list.maxHPosition = 200;

my_list.addItem({data:"flash", label:"Flash"});

my_list.addItem({data:"dreamweaver", label:"Dreamweaver"});

my_list.addItem({data:"coldfusion", label:"ColdFusion"});
