public function DropdownEvent(type:String, bubbles:Boolean = false, cancelable:Boolean = false, triggerEvent:Event = null)| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 | 
| Product Version: | Flex 3 | 
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 | 
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
| CLOSE | Constant | 
public static const CLOSE:String = "close"| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 | 
| Product Version: | Flex 3 | 
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 | 
	  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 thecurrentTarget. | 
| target | The Object that dispatched the event; 
           it is not always the Object listening for the event. 
           Use the currentTargetproperty 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"| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 | 
| Product Version: | Flex 3 | 
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 | 
	  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 thecurrentTarget. | 
| target | The Object that dispatched the event; 
           it is not always the Object listening for the event. 
           Use the currentTargetproperty to always access the 
           Object listening for the event. | 
| triggerEvent | A value indicating the type of input action that triggered the event. |
