Re: [flexcoders] Advantages and Disadvantages of skinning
The basic reason to add skins in Flex 4 is to increase the performance and load time of flex based application. It removes the numerous extra properties from the mx object which could be added as per the UI demand. Skinning provides more flexible to the UI controls and components [such as side rounded button, triangle button, circular button, and more] There is no end to your imagination while using skinning, but whereas for MX control, we have to abide as per the API specification. As well as it provided clear line b/w flex developer and designer and a designer can create customized FXG using Catalyst. As mentioned by Jerry, the learning curve is complex initially but once you get the grip, you will love to use it in your application.

Re: [flexcoders] Multiple service calls in Flex Application?
Hi Mark, The service calls (I am assuming RMI) are asynchronous and you can make as many as RMI (HTTP, Web Service, Remote Class) in an flex application. You can also use some framework to chain concurrent calls in flex.

Re: [flexcoders] TileLayout for DataGrid [1 Attachment]
Jeff, What do you mean by toggle b/w vertical tile layout w.r.t. Data Grid? Spark's datagrid uses spark.components.gridClasses.GridLayout which is a virtual two dimensional layout for the Grid class and is not a general purpose layout, it's only intended to be use with Grid.

Rishi, Please read the complete email before you ask for something. I understand you like to help, but please read-up completely, understand problem then ask for things to help more. Dan, Whether you use Command-line or Flex Builder it doesn't matter, you always will try to compile 1 application in entire project, unless you have two or more applications in the project. Correct me if I am wrong, as my understanding goes you have EncoderController.as file which has class definition for EncoderController class which extends I guess from Application/Sprite. I guess this is the reason your project's main mxml file has root node as local:EncoderController./. Now if you are using Flex Builder, normally the main application mxml file which Flex Builder Template creates has root node as s:Application. In your case, after that mxml is created all you need to do just replace that default auto generated code by your old mxml contents include EncoderController.as in the src directory, which should work fine for you. FX:Script tag is used in mxml to just include AS scripts which doesn't have class definitions. Normally these AS files would have methods, variables etc required or used in MXML file. I hope you know that any MXML file can use fx:script tag and write the AS scripts stuff required in that particular MXML. Treat this MXML+AS script as class. The reason why you getting error in first place is, the MXML file which you have is extending from spark::Application [hence root tag as s:Application] included AS file has definition of a class which also extends from spark:Application. Writing code and compiling with SDK using compile time shouldn't be different from using Flex Builder. In-fact it gives more flexibility user friendliness.

In the constructor for the class: public function EncoderController() { ---addEventListener(FlexEvent.APPLICATION_COMPLETE,mainInit); --- } the indicated line is marked with Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener. In the mainInit method, I then have two lines: stage.align = TL; stage.scaleMode = noScale; both marked with Access of undefined property stage The code I copied over from my other machine compiles just fine using the SDK and it runs fine. Why is Flash Builder giving these errors? It looks like it is having problems importing flash.media.Camera and appears confused by addEventListener.

Hi group, Can some one please help me in converting an array into an xml file or a similar hierarchical data structure to be used for a tree component! Imagine a case I have an array A with values A1,A2,A3,A4, B1,B2,B3,B4, ….. Z1,Z2,Z3,Z4. Can I have an XML like A A1/A1 .. .. /A . . . . . . . . Z Z1/Z1 .. .. /Z So that I can directly link it to a tree component? Kindly help out!! Best Regards, Venkat Maddali.
Re: [flexcoders] Re: How to call container's method into component file
That's true Tim, even we use MVC framework and Event propagation to achieve such kind of mechanism. But for novice user, they can try that too. Although not the best way.

It's ok to have a parent call a method on a child ( data binding is preferred though). But, children shouldn't call methods directly on their parents. Instead, have the child component dispatch an event to initiate the save method on the parent. -TH --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Rishi Tandon rishitandon123@... wrote: Use object oriented best practice.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 4.5 - smart phone app
Can I take a Flex application (currently running on the server), and easily convert it to a phone app? It is a self contained (no data access or any external connection). No, you can't. The mobile application is been designed and architect in a different way. It uses light weight component and the navigation is also different. I believe it requires 4.5. We currently have 4.0. Is the upgrade included in the product? We (State of Illinois/DHS) currently have a contract with Adobe for our LC and Flex programs. I can provide the info on this if you need it. I think you have to pay extra for the update licence. Check the Adobe site for the same. But get the Adobe Flash 4.5.1 which supports iOS and Blackberry too.

Re: [flexcoders] Several HTTP request in the same component
You can set the result format of the HTTP to Object. When you receive the request from the HTTP, you can store in the individual data collections. And then you can bind those variables to the data providers of your comboboxes. Usually we do use some MVC framework to handle data, events and views. Rishi .

Re: [flexcoders] Adobe Air related ANT task
I just find out the bug related to the flex ant tasks for referencing a embed assets in the project. http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-16991 But, it is related to Linux. In my case, all the embedded assets reference in MXML or css file could not locate the assets inside the embedded assets. For eg,. Asset references inside action script: backgroundImage=@Embed(source='embed_assets/ChipsSkins.swf#Chip_activeBlueBackground') whereas the actual Embed asset folder: C:\proj\ProjectNAMe\src\embed_assets As usual, I have added the source path to the ant task. The small work around that I got is to add the back slash at the beginning i.e. backgroundImage=@Embed(source='/embed_assets/ChipsSkins.swf#Chip_activeBlueBackground') It should start picking up from the source path. (No errors for this part) But I don't want to change the hundreds references in different files. As well as, by changing the path like that in the CSS file, it shows an error. Please advice!
