Re: [flexcoders] My Flex Site Mockup - considerations?

[John C. Bland II]

Jason, in reference to the design you might want to look at moving the icons inside of the button. This would replace "print" with the printer icon so your buttons will read "[icon] summary" and "[icon] article" or maybe nix "article" all together and just have the printer icon. The same goes for the add/remove. 
Not sure if you were looking for critiques or not. Hope it helps...On 11/17/05, Merrill, Jason <

I'm
a Flash IDE guy and have only produced simple apps with the Flexbuilder 2 Alpha
which use XML.  Anyhoo, I have 2 questions.  I have created a site
mockup of a Flex app in Photoshop for one of my clients.  See it here:

Question
1: The client can only run Flash player 7, so knowing that and what I have
mocked up, would you look at the following screenshot and tell me if everthing
I am proposing in this graphic is possible in Flex 1.5 (obviously assuming we
will have easy access to the data etc.) – including embedding the graphics
and fonts in the tabs. I have played with Flexbuilder 2 and the 8.5 player, but
not Flex 1.5.  

 

Question 2: 
I probably already know the answer, but can you run Flex 1.5 on a server in one
place (say here, on the development side), produce the necessary .swfs, and
then take the .swfs to another server that does not have the Flex server to
deploy the app?  Or are the .swfs strictly built at runtime?  Or are
there legal considerations for that?  This isn't a requirement, but
it would be nice to only have to buy Flex 1.5 server here, and give our clients
the .swfs instead of telling them they need to also buy the Flex server to run
this.  I am guessing though, that the Flex server and the Flex app have to
be on the same machine. Right?  If so, I guess what are my options for
something *kinda* like this –
realistically – the Flash IDE or AJAX? 
  If Flash 8.5 were an option, I would hold out for Flexbuilder 2,
but it's not with them since they can only run the Flash 7 player.  

 

Thanks,
