Re: {Disarmed} [flexcoders] Flex SWF running slow

2007-05-11 Thread alex steel
thank for looking

It happens to me without any interaction
I know for service browser and everything is ok, 
I still think it have problem with adding 300 ui elements

with my flash experience I would break it in smaller chunks, for
example 40 frames per second, break it in 8 per frame, it would slide
through it


how can I do such a thing in Flex ?

if that isn't problem I would still have good ad to my Flex experience
and future issues

I didn't looked about how Flex execute larger chunks of code
does it try to do it in one frame, or it's truly frame=free ?







[flexcoders] Flex SWF running slow

2007-05-11 Thread alex steel
I have a little problem with Flex 
compiled file is running slow, freezing computer for about 2 sec

basiclly I use amfphp2 to get information for dynamiclly creating Lists 
you can see it at
http://www.pleasures.co.yu/_gvozden/RHS/RHS.html

and code which is doing that is at 
http://www.pleasures.co.yu/_gvozden/RHS/RHS_code.txt

as far as I see it there is nothing tricky there except if creating
300 UI items freeze it, and it is obviously

being that I am new to Flex but expert for Flash I find this really
weird and bad
 
how can I resolve this issue (without making it static)?

AMFPHP 2 browser returns query for about 2 sec, one's that clock is
showing , then there is freeze :(

thnx
Alex




[flexcoders] Re: dynamically created access and event elements problem and

2007-04-10 Thread alex steel
Little trickery and I resolved the problem
anyway 
basically I used name to keep checkbox number 

at  creation
var k1 : uint = k*2;
cbJ_L.name = k1.toString();
var k2 : uint = k*2+1;
cbJ_R.name = k2.toString();

and in function called upon change event 
public function setCheckBox(event:Event):void {
var currNumber:uint = Number(event.currentTarget.name);
var otherNumber:uint;
if (currNumber%2 == 1) { 
otherNumber = currNumber-1;
} else {
otherNumber = currNumber+1;
}
if (event.currentTarget.selected) {
cbJ_arr[otherNumber].selected = false;
} 
}

I am good at making things work but I would like to do it right way ;)

[flexcoders] Re: dynamically created access and event elements problem and

2007-04-10 Thread alex steel
Thanks again :)
I understand referencing by array,
but isn't it possible to reference by dynamiclly created name
like in flash you can use name to create movieclip 
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("name", 1000)

and then 
name or _root["name"] can be use as reference


another question is
how I can pass variable via event
basiclly if I have array of elements then I would like to pass array
position of element in array so I can determine if it's left or right
checkbox so I can keep only one of two checkboxes selected
if I could add variables to elements that would be good
like I can do in flash with movieclips mc.number = i
or that need extending checkbox class ?


thanks in advance

[flexcoders] ComboBox padding

2007-04-02 Thread alex steel
Hi to you all,

I recently started developing in Flex, mostly because of Apollo and AS3 
I am very good at Flash and AS2


anyway my problem is ComboBox padding
text is very wide from sides by default which I really don't need
in Flex Style explorer there is no example how to use padding for
combobox 
I see it's there for Text in examples so please if you can give me an
example on padding for ComboBox 
I admin I didn't try to use CSS at all I've asked here first
