Question

I made a contextMenu for my list. Then i have a function like this for code:

lmi5.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT, function(e:ContextMenuEvent){

}); 

How can i get to know which listItem was clicked?

I was hoping that the “e.mouseTarget” would be an item, but its a list’s CellRenderer.

EDIT:

The ´e.mouseTarget´ is not the selected item in the context menu, but the display element on which you right-clicked. I guess you need to add one different event listener function to each item in the context menu, this way you can tell which one of them was clicked, for example:

var myContextMenu:ContextMenu new ContextMenu();
var item:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("item 1");
var item2:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("item 2");

myContextMenu.customItems.push(item);
myContextMenu.customItems.push(item2);

item1.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT, item1_select_handler);
item2.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT, item2_select_handler);

function item1_select_handler(e:ContextMenuEvent):void
{
  trace("item 1!!");
}

function item2_select_handler(e:ContextMenuEvent):void
{
  trace("item 2!!");
}
