comboBox selected index label not working

[stephank]

Dear Forum

I've been trying to debug this one for a few days now. I'm really not sure where the error lies, and I'm almost ready to program my own comboBox...

Basically the selected Index property of the comboBox works the first time the comboBox is loaded onto the stage. If I remove the movieClip containing the comboBox and then reatach it at a later point the comboBox text label is empty. The drop down list however shows as it should all the options.

I've debuged it and everything should be there. The text label is set to visible and contains the correct text. I've used the recommended XRay application to debug it.

Did anyone experience this before? What makes the comboBox label (selectedIndex) textField disappear?

Any insights / leads much appreciated.

thank you very much for you time.

Best

Stephank

an interesting discovery during debugging!!!

When I increase the xscale of the text Label to 300 or 400 all of a sudden the text label appears BEHIND the white background movie clip!!

There must be some depth or styles issue/bug going on here.

Did anyone ever run into this problem?

Thanks
