Problem with OnRollOut Event of TextInput component

[Girish_inf]

Hi,
If I have a onRollOut event for a TextInput component, I am unable to click or edit the text box.

var Name_txt:TextInput = this.createClassObject(TextInput, "Name", 0);
Name_txt.onRollOver = function():Void {  
       this._x = 50;
}

Is there any work around for this?

Regards,

I don't know if it'll help, but try Name_txt.useHandCursor = false if the hand cursor is appearing.

Hi Laquana,
No it does not work. Only the cursor changes, but still i am unable to select the contents of the text box or edit it. Any other solution for this?

try using editable to set it to true.

yourtextinputcomponentinstancename.editable=true;

Hi,
Even after setting that, it does not work. I am not even able to select the contents of the text box. The onRollOver event totally stops the selcection or editing properties of the text box.

This is strange, there might be something in your code that goes haywire. Why not you paste here the complete source code or else attach the fla file. With limited information given, it's hard to detect what's wrong with yours.

Hi,
I have pasted the code in the first post itself. They are just two lines.

import mx.controls.TextInput;
var Name_txt:TextInput = this.createClassObject(TextInput, "Name", 0);
Name_txt.onRollOver = function():Void {
this._x = 50;
}

Just remove the onRollOver function and it works perfect. Please let me know whether I make it clear or not.

I've never used the component TextInput using the createClassObject, so I might not give you the answer. Is your stage completely empty that you didn't insert any text input with the variable Name_txt? If yes, do provide indepth information.
