Subclasses | ImageTree |
By default, a leaf is represented by a text label next to a file icon. A branch is represented by a text label next to a folder icon, with a disclosure triangle that a user can open to expose children.
The Tree class uses an ITreeDataDescriptor or ITreeDataDescriptor2 object to parse and
manipulate the data provider.
The default tree data descriptor, an object of the DefaultDataDescriptor class,
supports XML and Object classes; an Object class data provider must have all children
in children
fields.
The Tree control has the following default sizing characteristics:
Characteristic | Description |
---|---|
Default size | Wide enough to accommodate the icon, label, and expansion triangle, if any, of the widest node in the first 7 displayed (uncollapsed) rows, and seven rows high, where each row is 20 pixels in height. If a scroll bar is required, the width of the scroll bar is not included in the width calculations. |
Minimum size | 0 pixels. |
Maximum size | 5000 by 5000. |
The <mx:Tree> tag inherits all the tag attributes of its superclass, and adds the following tag attributes:
<mx:Tree Properties dataDescriptor="Instance of DefaultDataDescriptor" dataProvider="null" dragMoveEnabled="true|false" firstVisibleItem="First item in the control" hasRoot="false|true" itemIcons="null" maxHorizontalScrollPosition="0" openItems="null" showRoot="true|false" Styles alternatingItemColors="undefined" backgroundDisabledColor="0xDDDDDD" defaultLeafIcon="'TreeNodeIcon' symbol in Assets.swf" depthColors="undefined" disclosureClosedIcon="'TreeDisclosureClosed' symbol in Assets.swf" disclosureOpenIcon="'TreeDisclosureOpen' symbol in Assets.swf" folderClosedIcon="'TreeFolderClosed' symbol in Assets.swf" folderOpenIcon="'TreeFolderOpen' symbol in Assets.swf" indentation="17" openDuration="250" openEasingFunction="undefined" paddingLeft="2" paddingRight="0" rollOverColor="0xAADEFF" selectionColor="0x7FCDFE" selectionDisabledColor="0xDDDDDD" selectionEasingFunction="undefined" textRollOverColor="0x2B333C" textSelectedColor="0x2B333C" Events change="No default" itemClose="No default" itemOpen="No default" itemOpening="No default" />

dataDescriptor | property |
dataDescriptor:ITreeDataDescriptor
[read-write]Returns the current ITreeDataDescriptor.
The default value is DefaultDataDescriptor
.
public function get dataDescriptor():ITreeDataDescriptor
public function set dataDescriptor(value:ITreeDataDescriptor):void
dataProvider | property |
dataProvider:Object
[read-write]An object that contains the data to be displayed. When you assign a value to this property, the Tree class handles the source data object as follows:
The default value is null
.
This property can be used as the source for data binding.
Implementation public function get dataProvider():Object
public function set dataProvider(value:Object):void
dragMoveEnabled | property |
dragMoveEnabled:Boolean
[read-write]Indicates that items can be moved instead of just copied from the Tree control as part of a drag-and-drop operation.
The default value is true
.
public function get dragMoveEnabled():Boolean
public function set dragMoveEnabled(value:Boolean):void
firstVisibleItem | property |
firstVisibleItem:Object
[read-write]The item that is currently displayed in the top row of the tree. Based on how the branches have been opened and closed and scrolled, the top row might hold, for example, the ninth item in the list of currently viewable items which in turn represents some great-grandchild of the root. Setting this property is analogous to setting the verticalScrollPosition of the List control. If the item isn't currently viewable, for example, because it is under a nonexpanded item, setting this property has no effect.
NOTE: In Flex 1.0 this property was typed as XMLNode although it really was either an XMLNode or TreeNode. In 2.0, it is now the generic type Object and will return an object of the same type as the data contained in the dataProvider.
The default value is the first item in the Tree control.
This property can be used as the source for data binding.
Implementation public function get firstVisibleItem():Object
public function set firstVisibleItem(value:Object):void
hasRoot | property |
hasRoot:Boolean
[read-only]Indicates that the current dataProvider has a root item; for example, a single top node in a hierarchical structure. XML and Object are examples of types that have a root. Lists and arrays do not.
Implementation public function get hasRoot():Boolean

itemIcons | property |
public var itemIcons:Object
An object that specifies the icons for the items. Each entry in the object has a field name that is the item UID and a value that is an an object with the following format:
{iconID: Class, iconID2: Class}The
iconID
field value is the class of the icon for
a closed or leaf item and the iconID2
is the class
of the icon for an open item.
This property is intended to allow initialization of item icons.
Changes to this array after initialization are not detected
automatically.
Use the setItemIcon()
method to change icons dynamically.
The default value is undefined
.
See also
maxHorizontalScrollPosition | property |
maxHorizontalScrollPosition:Number
[read-write]
The maximum value for the maxHorizontalScrollPosition
property for the Tree control.
Unlike the maxHorizontalScrollPosition
property
in the List control, this property is modified by the Tree control as
items open and close and as items in the tree otherwise become
visible or are hidden (for example, by scrolling).
If you set this property to the widest known item in the dataProvider,
the Tree control modifies it so that even if that widest item
is four levels down in the tree, the user can scroll to see it.
As a result, although you read back the same value for the
maxHorizontalScrollPosition
property that you set,
it isn't necessarily the actual value used by the Tree control.
The default value is 0
.
public function get maxHorizontalScrollPosition():Number
public function set maxHorizontalScrollPosition(value:Number):void
openItems | property |
openItems:Object
[read-write]The items that have been opened or set opened.
The default value is null
.
public function get openItems():Object
public function set openItems(value:Object):void
showRoot | property |
showRoot:Boolean
[read-write]
Sets the visibility of the root item.
If the dataProvider data has a root node, and this is set to
false
, the Tree control does not display the root item.
Only the decendants of the root item are displayed.
This flag has no effect on non-rooted dataProviders, such as List and Array.
The default value is true
.
public function get showRoot():Boolean
public function set showRoot(value:Boolean):void

expandChildrenOf | () | method |
public function expandChildrenOf(item:Object, open:Boolean):void
Opens or closes all the tree items below the specified item.
If you set dataProvider
and then immediately call
expandChildrenOf()
you may not see the correct behavior.
You should either wait for the component to validate
or call the validateNow()
method.

expandItem | () | method |
public function expandItem(item:Object, open:Boolean, animate:Boolean = false, dispatchEvent:Boolean = false, cause:Event = null):void
Opens or closes a branch item.
When a branch item opens, it restores the open and closed states
of its child branches if they were already opened.
If you set dataProvider
and then immediately call
expandItem()
you may not see the correct behavior.
You should either wait for the component to validate
or call validateNow()
.
item:Object — Item to affect.
