Hello guys
Hope every one is doing great. i am a bit new to Text Layout Framework although developing in flex since flex 4 , now my issue is that i want to position an image in a newspaper type layout . Actually i have to place it in a way that for instance if i am having 4 columns then the image should be placed on the top of 2nd and 3rd column and also first and the last columns should remain as it is as if any one had seen times reader (AIR) application in which the image is spanned only on the top of center columns and the columns on both the sides maintain there complete page height. Only the centered columns change their height and width according to image dimensions. The problem's second part is that when i am going to resize the page or change my monitor's screen resolution to different numbers then the image should remain in place i.e it should then also be placed only on the top of 2nd and 3rd column. My Incomplete Solution to the problem I have done the image resizing on the page resizing event and also on switching between different resolutions. The only thing that is annoying me is image positioning on page resizing and switching between diff resolutions. On thing more i am not handling image as inline graphic element i had made a separate container in which i am placing the image on my first page's container (Sprite). So it would be quite helpful for me that you guys suggest me something regarding my problems domain. Although i tried to achieve this thing through inline graphic element but i didn't reached any acceptable solution. I came across Platus Talk's blog and saw his work but that solution wasn't helpful for me completely as he is not dividing his text into linked containers like i am doing. Also i tyepcast my containers column into column state object and after which further type cast it to get the specified column and from there i get a rectangle whose height , width i have to change but if i change its height or width nothing happens to it not a single word even changes its position. Thank you very much in advance. One final thing guys i have only 3 to 4 days left with me regarding my problem and to submit it to the client so i need a solution somehow soon Any type of help will be highly appreciated. With Best Regards Anas Happy Coding. ________________________________ From: Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com> To: "flexcoders@yahoogroups.com" <flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Monday, March 26, 2012 7:35 PM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Re: Tempermental URLLoader.load() Use a network monitor and see what is going on underneath.
