Re: [Flashcoders] Who uses Adobe Flex?
Hi! I tend to start a project in flash IDE and then code it all the way inside a flex bluider or eclipse + FDT. I just use my IDE for Flash assets like custom constructed components. That way you have all the neat code hinting (wich you still dont have in IDE) and have all the good things from the Flash and not Flex. Sid Ferreira escreveu: I need to retake the studies in flex...

All in all, Flex / Flash Builder is just Flash platform ... which is just Flash. Flash is Flash. The florense site could have been done with Flex. Actually you can use Flex Builder to build a 100% actionscript project involving NONE of the flex framework / components. Flex / Flash Builder is just a nice IDE, truely dedicated towards application development. I am answering to your question with the one I asked to Gringo's ( http://www.gringo.nu/ co founder: Do you happen to use Flex in the websites/applications you produce ? Answer: Yes, almost always. From that answer I started wondering what Flex was :) Now I am building custom components for Flex specialists :) Actually it is quite amazing how far you can consolidate what you learnt with Flash. Moreover if you are being able to develop sites like florense.com you will be able to do great things with Flex, and definitely replicate what you did in Flash with some time gain, if you are being proficient. Another question could be: why does the client want Flex ? (because SEO is not an answer, it can be done with a 100% pure AS project compiled with Flash IDE). hth, Cedric I know this isn't actually an Adobe Flex / Adobe Flash Builder list (actually, if you know a good one, forward me), but today a client sent a briefing asking the website to be done in Adobe Flex. Once it will need CEO and it isn't for small audiences, we plan to deny it, but then I got the doubt: Are there good websites made in flex? Here is a link of a website made for us using flash technology, and it's what we would like to do: http://www.florense.com Thanks in advance! ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] DataGrid not updating after DataProvider item changes
If i got it right he his using Flash not Flex, and so, there is no ArrayCollection to be [Bindable] unless you can mimic in some way the ArrayCollection Class on Flash. 2009/10/26 Dave Watts dwa...@figleaf.com And the dataprovider is also set to a [Bindable] property right? This is almost certainly the problem, right here. Array isn't Bindable, ArrayCollection is.

Re: [Flashcoders] alpha on text without embedding font
Create a movieclip, put the textField inside the movieclip and set the alpha to the movieclip. That will do the trick :) 2009/10/26 Karl DeSaulniers k...@designdrumm.com You may want to force a variable inside the MC to hold the dynamic text that is loaded and have the textfield = that variable. Then if the MC changes (position, scale, etc), you have a function that make sure the textField always = that variable. a pseudo refresh guarantee. You may find that you don't need this in most cases. More for just in case, or if you find your text disappearing when modifying the MC it is in. If your text is static (doesnt change form) and all it does is fade its alpha, you probably wont need to do this.

Re: [Flashcoders] FOTB
I liked the new path that Flash IDE is taking. More interaction between coders and designers and better workflow between Flash Builder and Flash IDE. Code completion is nice! 2009/9/24 matt m...@moonbootmedia.com Hey, did anyone attend/pay attention to Flash on the Beach? Seems like some great content this year, was wondering what the list thought. Some cool stuff like Joa Ebert's Apparat Andre Michelle's sound/PixelBender stuff, but since this list generally runs toward the less esoteric aspects of AS3, I was wondering if any content grabbed ya. --Matt ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders -- Cumprimentos, Mauro Martins - www.imauro.com || www.imauro.com/blog/ Web Designer || Flash Flex Developer Twitter: @Mauredo || LinkedIn: www.linkedin/in/mauromartins ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
