    In your example, in the spinner itself.

     

    Here is the example from the documentation.

    <s:SpinnerList id="spinner3" typicalItem="XXX" wrapElements="false"

                               fontWeight="bold" textAlign="center"

                               change="handleSelectionChange(event)">

                    <s:dataProvider>

                        <s:ArrayList>

                            <fx:String>AM</fx:String>

                            <fx:String>PM</fx:String>

                        </s:ArrayList>

                    </s:dataProvider>

    </s:SpinnerList>

    Where is the data shosen stored in this spinner list, and how can I use the data in an "IF" statement?

    Cant find this in my actionscript book or on internet.

    Like this:

     

    if  = 1

    elseif = 2

    ....

     

    <s:SpinnerListContainer x="22" y="85" width="135" height="110">

      <s:SpinnerList id="ToolSpinnerLeft" width="125" change="ToolSpinnerLeft_changeHandler(event)"

            fontWeight="bold" labelField="data" selectedIndex="1">

       <s:dataProvider>

        <s:ArrayList>

         <fx:String>1</fx:String>

         <fx:String>2</fx:String>

         <fx:String>3</fx:String>

         <fx:String>4</fx:String>

         <fx:String>5</fx:String>

        </s:ArrayList>

       </s:dataProvider>

      </s:SpinnerList>

    </s:SpinnerListContainer>

    From what I think you are asking is, how do you get the selected item in order to do an action based on that selection.

     

     

    var selectedValue:String = ToolSpinnerLeft.value;

     

    Of course, to make things a litte easier for you, you coud change the Spinner list times to numeric

      <s:ArrayList>  
     <fx:Number>1</fx:Number>
     <fx:Number>2</fx:Number>
     <fx:Number>3</fx:Number>
     <fx:Number>4</fx:Number>
     <fx:Number>5</fx:Number>
   </s:ArrayList>

     

    Or, more simply, just have a minimum and maximum for your SpinnerList by using a NumericDataProvider

     

    <s:SpinnerList typicalItem="100">
    <s:dataProvider>
        <s:NumericDataProvider minimum="1" maximum="5" stepSize="1"/>
    </s:dataProvider>
</s:SpinnerList>

    Then when you get the ToolSpinnerLeft.value; it will already be a number for the Switch example I gave in your other post.
