• Adjusts text field width to accommodate the visible icons.
• Sets the item count and barter count display.
• Alters the color transform for different icons based on selection state.

Example Usage:

    isLegendary: false,

🖥️ User Interface Behavior

• The ItemListEntry class manages the visual representation of an item within a list, such as in an inventory screen.
• It supports displaying various status icons next to the item’s name (e.g., favorite, legendary, tagged for search).
• The color of icons may change to indicate selection status.

🔧 Development Notes

The ItemListEntry class is tightly coupled with the graphical assets within the Flash MovieClip symbols. It assumes that certain MovieClip instances and properties are present, such as LeftIcon_mc, FavoriteIcon_mc, etc.

🗒️ Additional Information

🚀 This class is designed for use within an ActionScript 3.0 project and may be part of a game’s user interface codebase, such as that of a Bethesda game using the Scaleform framework for UI design.

🛠️ The manipulation of ColorTransform properties allows for dynamic visual feedback based on the item’s selection state.

📌 It is important to note that changes to the class may require corresponding changes to the associated .fla assets for the MovieClips.
