[flexcoders] Re: Please, help: the release player displays a blank page in all browsers.
I have spent the last two days working on this issue. I have narrowed it down that the SystemManager isn't able to register the application. It runs the preloader fine in both the release player and the debug, although when it tries to pass this: document = app = topLevelWindow = IUIComponent(create()); it only works in the debug player, not the release version. There are no errors shown. I figured this out by implementing a custom preloader to bring up a gif image to act as an Alert.show() replacement since Alert.show() is not supported in the preload area. I still can't resolve the issue though. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[flexcoders] Debug Mode Prematurely Terminating
In both Eclipse and Flex Builder 3, the Debug mode prematurely terminates. I have an error in my code, which isn't being picked up by the compiler, so it's hard to debug. Regardless of break points, the debugger will launch the app in the browser and then immediately terminate, not checking for any errors even though I'm getting them. Also, upon pressing the Debug button, the IDE used to automatically switch to Debug mode but not anymore. My code couldn't possibly screw up Eclipse's debugging mode, right? If both Eclipse and Flex Builder have this save behavior, is it even worth reinstalling?

[flexcoders] Bake XML File into ActionScript
What's the best way to compile an XML file directly into ActionScript? You can assign an XML literal to a variable as such: var novel:XML = BOOKTITLEMy Book/TITLE/BOOK But it would be much better to have the XML in an externally managed file. I'd much prefer to do something like: var novel:XML = {include Books.xml;}; But this doesn't seem to be allowed. I could load the XML file at runtime but then I'd have to deal with the asynchronous nature of the loading and I'd have to handle any runtime errors if there was a problem - yuck!

[flexcoders] ADG MultipleRows FilterFunction
How do I allow the user to select multiple rows (by holding down CTRL or SHIFT) and when they are done making selections, fire an event to execute a filterfunction within the same ADG? I'm trying to allow the user to filter down a grid data to only show all the rows they just selected. With the ADG selectmode=multipleRows and allowMultipleSelection =true, this works fine in the ADG without the event. If I use the change event, it filters the data down to only the first row selected. I need it to wait until all row selections are made...so change doesn't appear to be the correct event to use. I've tried the ADG's keyUp KeyboardEvent keyUp=myKeyUpHandler(event) public function myKeyUpHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void { if (event.ctrlKey || event.shiftKey) { filterSelected(); } But, event.ctrlKey being released always traces as false and it never runs my filter??? Is using the keyboardevent on keyup the best way to do this? Why doesn't it detect ctrlKey or shiftKey release? I thought there might be a built-in ADG way to filter down a dataProvider to only show the selected rows. Don't know. In my case, The user runs reports but wants to only show selected items in the report. My filter below works, but I need to pass all selectitems items to it when the user is done. Any suggestions? Thanks, Don public function filterSelected():void { riskDP.filterFunction = processSelectedFilter; riskDP.refresh(); } public function processSelectedFilter(item:Object):Boolean { var result:Boolean=false; for ( var i:int=0; i riskDG.selectedItems.length; i++ ) { if(item.Number == riskDG.selectedItems[i].Number){ result = true; } } return result; }

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Debug Mode Prematurely Terminating
In your project in Flex Builder there should be an html-template folder with a file index.template.html. It's a normal html file except that it has some ${var} style includes (which you can ignore for now). Find the second AC_FL_RunContent javascript call in the file (the first takes care of the flash player update, the second one is for your swf), and just add the aforementioned wmode, opaque pair to the list passed to the call. So your code may end up looking like: AC_FL_RunContent( src, playerProductInstall, FlashVars, MMredirectURL=+MMredirectURL+'MMplayerType='+MMPlayerType+'MMdoctitle='+MMdoctitle+, width, ${width}, height, ${height}, align, middle, id, ${application}, quality, high, bgcolor, ${bgcolor}, name, ${application}, wmode, opaque, allowScriptAccess,sameDomain, type, application/x-shockwave-flash, pluginspage, http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer; ); You may need to do a project clean after that (I don't remember if the changes will automatically pass through).

I've tried the ADG's keyUp KeyboardEvent keyUp=myKeyUpHandler(event) public function myKeyUpHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void { if (event.ctrlKey || event.shiftKey) { filterSelected(); } But, event.ctrlKey being released always traces as false and it never runs my filter??? Is using the keyboardevent on keyup the best way to do this? Why doesn't it detect ctrlKey or shiftKey release? I thought there might be a built-in ADG way to filter down a dataProvider to only show the selected rows. Don't know. In my case, The user runs reports but wants to only show selected items in the report. My filter below works, but I need to pass all selectitems items to it when the user is done. Any suggestions? Thanks, Don public function filterSelected():void { riskDP.filterFunction = processSelectedFilter; riskDP.refresh(); } public function processSelectedFilter(item:Object):Boolean { var result:Boolean=false; for ( var i:int=0; i riskDG.selectedItems.length; i++ ) { if(item.Number == riskDG.selectedItems[i].Number){ result = true; } } return result; }
[flexcoders] Re: Bake XML File into ActionScript
Hi Randy - thanks for the feedback! I was hoping to find a way to preserve the XML file without contaminating it with the private var novel:XML = bit. That way I can create the XML file using my favorite XML generator (and use a validating XSD schema to make sure everything is correct). When the XML file looks good I can simply drop it into my Flex project - overriding the previous XML file - and everything should just compile. That approach would work if I was working in MXML using the mx:XML id=MyBooks source=books.xml/ tag. I was hoping there was an equivalent way to do it when working purely with ActionScript .as files.

[flexcoders] Stop execution till Popup is closed

The problem I am having is that when I show the popup code is still executed in the parent, which is not what I would like. I would only like to create and show the object if the user clicked create in the popup and not do anything if he clicks cancel. This is the function called when the user selects new: private function newItem(): void { var item: Item = new Item(); var newProj:newProject = newProject(PopUpManager.createPopUp(this,newProject,true)); PopUpManager.centerPopUp(newProj); //This is where i would like to pause till the user clicks a button in the popup item.data = newProj.project; g.add(item); s.dataProvider = g; } Is there anyway to do this?

RE: [flexcoders] RE: Loop creator
Anthony - I'm a long time user/fan of Fruity Loops. Is this 'kind-of' what you are doing? If so, you've probably found that loading samples is no big. Repeating the samples is a little harder (due to timing accuracy) but still no big. Where you are going to hit some practicality issues is around maintaining a virtual timeline and actively merging/mixing everything down. It is theoretically possible to do what you are proposing - but highly unlikely. since these kinds of operations are super cpu intensive and typically done on the server side. Even if you were able to handle all of the encoding/decoding and file management issues - the projected size of your audio files will likely be a problem unless you are doing something with sample rates... which opens another can of worms.

(http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/multifile_upload.html http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/multifile_upload.html ) In this example there is a datagrid that is dynamically generated, but I need to add another couple of columns to make it work for my needs. the role column is a column that will determine how the file being uploaded will be treated on our servers once it is uploaded. I *finally* figured out that I needed to use class factory (which I don't fully understand) to add the combobox into the column as the itemRenderer and how to set it's properties. I am tying the combobox to an array that associates the file, it's index in the datagrid, and it's role and in doing so I need to access the combobox's change handler to update the array, but I am at a loss on how to do so. My initial thought was to extend the combobox class and add the hander in there - then associate the combobox with the column - but I feel like I may be making the situation more difficult than necessary.

The editor works fine; in fact it's been working this way for some time. But recently, we enabled horizontal and vertical grid lines on the grid. When the TextArea editor opens up, the datagrid horizontal grid lines are drawn across the top of the control. I've verified that the TextArea control is not inheriting the styles related to grid lines I've verified that the TextArea backgroundAlpha is 1; i.e. the text on the rows underneath the editor is not showing through. So as near as I can tell, the grid is drawing the gridlines on top of the editor. Curiously, I also have a PopUpButton editor type - it does not have grid lines drawn across when the dropdown area that appears when the button is activated. Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround? Thanks
RE: [flexcoders] htmlText to Text
If you read the text property, it won't have the angle brackets.

RE: [flexcoders] need help urgent - multiple images printing
Probably not possible with current versions. Your print job will probably take more than 60 seconds on some machines and timeout. Someday, I hope the Flash Player will fix the bug that will allow printing in the background.

Re: [flexcoders] controls not not loading..
Thanks for your help. I ended up being able to call the mxml version of the component (as opposed to the as3 version) but the as3 version does function as code behind. With that accomplished.i'm wondering why it calls some constructor that i didn't define...this default has no params and the one I want it to call does...is there a way to force it to call my constructor instead of the default...i don't even know where the default is defined... thanks percy On Sun, Jul 20, 2008 at 8:25 PM, Alex Harui [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Make sure someone is setting the size of the control.

RE: [flexcoders] controls not not loading..
AS3 only allows one constructor per class so I'm not sure what you are referring to.

Re: [flexcoders] RE: Loop creator
Really? I would assume, I can join the byteArrays some how - Which will than be a full length track that will enable me to encode. I mean, how complicated is it to do that? Andrea Michelle did something similar, didn't he? I think I have a solution for the mp3 encoding. I'm looking into ffmpeg and lame. - Ant On Jul 20, 2008, at 11:18 PM, Rick Winscot wrote: Anthony – I’m a long time user/fan of Fruity Loops. Is this ‘kind- of’ what you are doing? If so, you’ve probably found that loading samples is no big. Repeating the samples is a little harder (due to timing accuracy) but still no big. Where you are going to hit some practicality issues is around maintaining a virtual timeline and actively merging/mixing everything down. It is theoretically possible to do what you are proposing – but highly unlikely… since these kinds of operations are super cpu intensive and typically done on the server side. Even if you were able to handle all of the encoding/decoding and file management issues – the projected size of your audio files will likely be a problem unless you are doing something with sample rates... which opens another can of worms.
