Re: [flexcoders] Query regardind server side logging
Hi Harshada, the logging api works on the client only. To store the logging events on the server, you need to create your own logging target, which sends the items to the server. Cheers, Ralf.

The requirement is that i need to log all the client side events on the server side. That is what ever is happening on the client , should get stored in a file on server which is physically on a different location. I tried Flex2 server side APIs . The piece of code that I tried is as follows: 1. Create a Logger class. 2. Create a TraceTarget class. 3. // Add the traceTarget as a log target. Log.addTarget(traceTarget); myLogger = Log.getLogger(MyCustomClass); and add this logging on event based. This does not seem like a server side logging. If i run this with Data service, (I have a service running), what is happening is , it is logging events on client side where i have configured logging in mm.cfg(in flashLog file). In short , this is not working as desired. Can anybody please let me know how to achieve this?

Re: [flexcoders] Binding htmlText to a variable
To me it looks like you are assigning the text at runtime, so there is no escaping needed. Only if the text is inserted at compile time, you need escaping, because the text is inserted into the xml , which wouldn't be valid thereafter. Cheers, Ralf.

You likely need to add an import for flash.net.* to your code so the compiler can know what class you're referring to.

[flexcoders] z-depth for TabBar
TabBar's children order is linked to it's child indices. Therefore, I see no possible way to increase the z-depth for a Tab in the TabBar. If you utilize setChildIndex, this changes the child's actual position in the Box, and thus put's him at the end. The current design I have for tabs indicates that the selected tab is above the others. The horizontalGap style makes this work really well on the left side of the selected tab because you can see him being above the tab to his left. The right, however, is in front of him (the selected tab), and this is not what I want. If I bring him it front, the Box redraws, and throws him at the end. I understandy why it does this; NavBar was built around the child model of Box. How do I get a child to appear in front? --JesterXL Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Something is new at Yahoo! Groups.

Re: [flexcoders] Camera object
Andy, Did you get an answer elsewhere on this question that you posted last month? If not, this technote might be helpful: http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_16454 The technote is dated March 19, 2003 and titled Common Questions about Macromedia Flash Communication Server. I am pasting at the end two relevant excerpts. fyi ... two non-webcam options I believe can be detected by the Camera object are Osprey streaming cards and Camtasia. You can find more on each of these at, respectively: http://viewcast.com/news/current/press040419.htm http://www.techsmith.com/learn/camtasia/current/general/1507.asp If you have further questions on details related to the Camera object you might want to try the FlashComm list at: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcomm The FlashComm list is very well subscribed by developers who frequently work with the Camera object :-) hth, g EXCERPTS FROM TECHNOTE tn_16454 How is the video captured? Video is captured by the Macromedia Flash Player. The Flash Player can acquire video from anything that has a WDM Video Capture Driver. This includes almost all web cameras, DV cameras and video capture boards. It even includes screen grab utilities like Camtasia. In fact, the Flash Player can even acquire from multiple video sources at the same time. For streaming video from your DVD player, all that is required is a video capture board that has a WDM Video Capture Driver. Is there a special video capture card or devices required? The capture card just needs to have a WDM Video Capture Driver. This is simple to test: open the camera settings dialog in the Flash Player on the system in question and see if the card appears in the list of video sources. To open this dialog, make sure you have Macromedia Flash Player 6, right-click while viewing some kind of Flash content, select Settings, then click the camera icon.

The grid has custom item renderers if that's relevant). anyhow, I have an update button which will call the jsp andget new results when clicked. I've set it up so the click() method correctly captures the scroll position, calls the jsp, and then sets the scrollToIndex to the previous value of the scroll position.It works great while the busy cursor is displayed, but it reverts back to scrolled all the way at the top once the actual data comes in from the jsp (it takes about 3 seconds to update the gridwith the new data). any ideas on where the scroll position is being reset? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto: flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com , Deepa Subramaniam dsubrama@ wrote: Hi Jordan - You can keep track of
Re: [flexcoders] Re: Keeping DataGrid from scrolling to top on update to dataProvider
K Everyone, I got it to work by calling the rememberDGPosition() on the DG's render event. So that worked for the scroll position and fixed the above bug. I can only assume that my earlier solution was setting the scroll position before the dataProvider registered an update. So, that was nice...but then I was getting a 'flash' on the selectedItem that I wasn't getting before. So I'm calling the function to set the selectedIndex on the result handler from my HTTPService, and calling the function to update the verticalScrollPosition on the render event for the DataGrid. Kinda hackish, but it works for now. My only remaining complaint is that if you keep the mouse pointer over the selectedItem in the grid, when the dataProvider updates it kind of flashes. I'd like to make it completel stale-looking and not have the highlight flash when the DP gets updated. Is there any way to do this, or am I stuck with a blinking highlight? Thanks to everyone for the help/recommendations/etc. CheersOn 7/9/06, Jordan Snyder [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm calling a function to set the verticalScrollPosition in the onResult function of my service call, and it's setting the scroll position However, and maybe this is a bug in verticalScrollPosition(?), the DataGrid sets the scroll position (meaning that the scroll bar is in the 'remembered' place), but moves the entire content of the grid so that the first item in the list is still the one being displayed first. So if I scroll up, there are blank items in the grid. That seems pretty silly. Maybe I'm doing something wrong though...? Deepa or anyone, do you have any recommendations, based on your knowledge of how the DG works behind the scenes? FYI: I'm also setting the selectedIndex in the same swoop, and I will soon be setting the column sorting at the same time as well. CheersOn 6/28/06, Jason Y.

I meant to say RESET in my explanation below. When your collection is filled with new data after a fill() callto your DataService, the component bound to that collection will receive a CollectionEvent with kind = RESET.

[flexcoders] Flex Development Shop
I am a consultant looking for an experienced development shop to design, develop, field, and support a Flex 2 based web application that will support a company's new product line. The application will need to support a very large database using paging and push type data technologies. The shop will need to be able to optimize the schema and communication to and from the server. Significant parts of the application will be based upon data grids and charting. If you are interested, please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks Steve Yahoo!

Re: [flexcoders] Camera object
I tried Sony DV camcoder, software caputre driver and TV tuner card several years ago (when flashcom came out), they all worked. Even tried to use DV cam in a room-based video conference application and it's working very well.

Webcams work great, but what if I have other devices that stream video content? Is there a specification anywhere that states the interface/criteria that the device must adhere to in order to be detected by the flash player? Currently, I only have a webcam connected to my machine and I am wondering what else I can connect. Will a camcorder work? Will a video capture/tv decoder card work? In the windows device manager, I see my webcam listed in the "Imaging devices" category… Does any hardware that is detected by the OS as an "Imaging device" work within the flash player?
