Property detail

triggerEvent

property

public var triggerEvent:Event

If the control is opened or closed in response to a user action, this property contains a value indicating the type of input action. The value is either InteractionInputType.MOUSE or InteractionInputType.KEYBOARD.

Constructor detail

DropdownEvent

()

constructor

public function DropdownEvent(type:String, bubbles:Boolean = false, cancelable:Boolean = false, triggerEvent:Event = null)

Constructor.

Parameters

	`type:String` — The event type; indicates the action that caused the event.

	`bubbles:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Specifies whether the event can bubble up the display list hierarchy.

	`cancelable:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Specifies whether the behavior associated with the event can be prevented.

	`triggerEvent:Event` (default = `null`) — A value indicating the type of input action that triggered the event

Constant detail

constant

public static const CLOSE:String = "close"

The DropdownEvent.CLOSE constant defines the value of the type property of the event object for a close event.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property	Value
`bubbles`	false
`cancelable`	false
`currentTarget`	The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`target`	The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`triggerEvent`	A value indicating the type of input action that triggered the event.

OPEN

constant

public static const OPEN:String = "open"

The DropdownEvent.OPEN constant defines the value of the type property of the event object for a open event.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property	Value
`bubbles`	false
`cancelable`	false
`currentTarget`	The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`target`	The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`triggerEvent`	A value indicating the type of input action that triggered the event.
