[flexcoders] Validator._init method

2006-08-31 Thread bharg.flex
Hi,
I am creating forms items at runtime using createChild method, and I 
need to validate the controls in the form. How to use validator 
subclasses to validate the newly created form?
Maybe a call to the Validator._init method ? But what are the 
parameters that need to go in??

Regards

[flexcoders] Australian Flex Mailing List [flexaussie]

2006-08-31 Thread Bjorn Schultheiss
Hey Guys,

I've started a new flex mailing list for us Aussies!

This not an effort to move Australian developers away from using FlexCoders,
rather it may be useful for Aussie developers to post messages that may not
be suitable for the international list.

Anyway the details.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: CairngormEvent Antipattern

Andi-
  Tom was referring to having a hierarchy of FrontControllers.

He happens to have a class called CoreController which all of his
Flex apps would use. Then, each Flex app will have it's own
FrontController that extends CoreController...this way each developer
has their own controller. This assumes of course there's 1 developer
working on a project. The CoreController would house the common
Commands such as Login, Logout, and similar things.

If you're in the situation where you have 1 large Flex app that has 1
large controller that all the developers are fighting for...I would
suggest that users update the Contoller and check in their empty
Command classes right away. Then begin development. That way if it
takes them 2 days to implement the logic for an event, they won't have
a lot of contacts. Another option is to make one developer the 'owner'
of the front controller and have other developers e-mail them the line
of code for the command.
  

Thank you.
I just wasn't sure this is the right way to do it. I mean, that cannot 
be more than one FrontController/project. It seems, this is the only 
solution.
The problem I'm having with this is not regarding the 'owner', with a 
version control system that's not a problem.
But the FrontController gets bigger and bigger, and less managable 
(although there is nothing much to manage :), just a bunch of  
addCommands :)), and I don't know weather this could cause problems or 
not (regarding speed for example).

This isn't a problem with a decent RCS.

As it is, we've got a CoreController and then indivdual projects
  

extend that 
  

to make their application specific events.

 

  

Could you please tell me where can I found more about this? I cannot

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Anyone actually able to save data from flex

2006-08-31 Thread Dirk Eismann
It works fine for me - if you receive stream errors then this may be a
security issue or an issue with the server not being able to handle the
result correctly.

Instead of sending a XML structure, have you tried POSTing simple String
values? Does this work for you? 


Dirk.

[flexcoders] Problems with using mx:Validator tag in MXML and code-behind approach in Flex 2

2006-08-31 Thread Andriy Panas
Hello flexcoders,

 I am using code-behind approach 
(http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/quickstart/building_components_using_code_behind/)
and my mx:Validator tag is declared in MXML.

  During compiling, I receive a warning Data binding will not be able
  to detect assignments to username. Thus, my binding to 'source' property in
mx:Validator does not work!

My MXML:

1)
-
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
local:ValidationFormBase 
xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; 
xmlns:local=* 
   
mx:Validator required=true id=_messageTextRequireValidator 
source={username} property=text
/

mx:TextInput left=85 right=10 top=10 id=username/
/local:ValidationFormBase
-

My code-behind AS3 'ValidationFormBase.as' class:
2)
-
package
{
import mx.core.Application;
import mx.controls.TextInput;

public class ValidationFormBase extends Application
{
public var username : TextInput;

public function ValidationFormBase()
{

super();
}

}
}
---

 If I use Validator class in AS3 for validation, everything works
fine, but I simply want to declare mx:Validator tag in MXML, it is
sooo much convenient.

 We are using code-behind approach 
(http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/quickstart/building_components_using_code_behind/)
  for 1 year already for all our code and we do not want to resign
  from this approach. All developers in our company strongly believe
  that *ANY* AS3 code should be separated from the MXML markup.

Hello all,

During compiling, I receive a warning Data binding will not be able to 
detect assignments to username. Thus, my binding to 'source' property in

  I had figured out my error, I should use [Bindable] directive in my AS3 class

...
mx:Style
.someStyle{
fontFamily: 黑体; /* a very common Chinese Font */
fontSize: 32;
}
/mx:Style

mx:Text text=follow is 中文 styleName=someStyle /
...

yes,it is simple,the English character works well ,but the Chinese
character did not change the fontFace style as expected,

I notice this issue exists a very long time(at least since flash 6),the flash
did not support the Chinese character in dynamic text styled by Chinse font.

is it a bug or is there a way to resolve this issue that i don't know?

Re: [flexcoders] Embedding fonts at runtime

Hi Daniel,

I am a little confused what you mean exactly. I have tried to set a

when I do the text in the label diappears. Did you get it to actually 
display the symbol font?

Here is the pertinent part of my current code:

 mx:Label id=myLabel text=test /
mx:Script

 private var ldr:Loader;
 private function onInit() : void
 {
 showFonts();

 var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
 context.applicationDomain = 
ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
 var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest( SymbolInclude.swf );

 ldr = new Loader();
 ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, 
onLoaderComplete );
 ldr.load( new URLRequest( SymbolInclude.swf), context );
 }

 private function onLoaderComplete(e:Event) : void
 {
 trace(onLoaderComplete: );

var content:DisplayObject = ldr.content;
var c:Class = content[myFont];
Font.registerFont(c);
  
   myLabel.setStyle( fontFamily, mySymbol );
 showFonts();
 }


 public function showFonts():void
 {
   trace(showFonts());
  var fontList : Array = Font.enumerateFonts();
for ( var i:String in fontList )
{
trace(font:  + Font( fontList[i] ).fontName);

 Awesome! I'll definitely have to check this out.

 On a related note, I wonder if its possible to embed fonts with a
 specific unicode range via this syntax.  It doesn't appear to be.

 [Embed(systemFont='Symbol', fontName='mySymbol',
 mimeType='application/x-font')]
 var myFont:Class;

 I know you can use @font-face, which appears to automatically
 generate a
 variable in the class, but its not a consistently named variable. I am
 sure a utility function in the class could be used to ferret out that
 variable name.

[flexcoders] Create Sound Spectrum in AS3

objects, but surely there is a way around this! Has anyone done this
or have any ideas on how to approach this problem? I can record and

manage to create any form of sound spectrum from this sound. I'm at a
loss here...

Any suggestions would be appreciated!!

shouldn't the ComboBox be seen as a self-contained component that
should handle all it's own stuff? it's goal is to capture a users
selection, the data of which is held as public var CbSelection:String;. 

lets say you want to have a custom version of this that is a listbox -
it has a property of mandetoryItemsSelected where 2 means that the
user has to select 2 items. Surely the validation of that goes into
the itemRenderer component, not the parent of the datagrid? The output
of the component is a list of the two items, and the parent shouldn't
care whether it's a comboBox or a group of CheckBoxes?

or am I wrong? if so, please correct me.

 Why does the result have a different timezoneOffset?

Because everything is converted down to UTC (or not) before the milliseconds 
are subtracted. This can be very confusing :-(
What TZ are you in ? 

 Is there another way of calculation time differences?

No, Flex lacks a proper set of date/time classes.

[flexcoders] FocusOut ??

I am having an issue where the focusOut on a text input will run the

the focus back to the top text input.

[flexcoders] Using DateField control to set birthday

2006-08-31 Thread Sergey Kovalyov
Hi All!

DateField is a great control, though setting birthday even for people
that were born in 198* it takes minutes to move through the months in
order to get to the correct date. Does anybody have experience
customizing this control for this particular need (selecting
birthday)?

[flexcoders] Re: CairngormEvent Antipattern

2006-08-31 Thread Tim Hoff
The example has good intentions.  Anytime you can reduce the amount 
of code in an application it's good, right?  Not always.  One of the 
main strengths of the Cairngorm framework is simplicity.  What the 
example refers to as a big downside, exists for a reason; 
simplicity.  By having one-to-one relationships, between 
CairngormEvents and Commands, it is easier to organize and maintain 
the events.  Not that you have to, of course.  However, in a typical 
use case the get, add, update and delete CairngormEvents would each 
use a different VO.  The get VO would contain Select parameters, 
while the update VO would contain fields and/or instructions.  The 
example would have to conditionally check the type of the event, to 
determine the appropriate VO to pass on to the command.  Certainly 
an option, but conditional coding can be avoided by keeping the 
separate actions in separate classes.  This keeps things simple, 
while enforcing encapsulation and promoting reuse.  CairngormEvents 
can always placed in different events sub folders to increase 
orginization.

As far as extending the FrontController (same applies to the 
ModelLocator), when classes get too big, break them apart into 
smaller pieces.  The FrontController does nothing more than lookup 
the Command name to execute.  Sub classing the FrontController 
wouldn't affect performance.  These issues are more related to data 
transfer, command methods (functions) and rendering.

 I just wasn't sure this is the right way to do it. I mean, that

 The problem I'm having with this is not regarding the 'owner', 
with a

 But the FrontController gets bigger and bigger, and less managable

problems or 
 not (regarding speed for example).

[flexcoders] Re: Use of viewLocator and viewHelper

2006-08-31 Thread mamatha_tn
Thanks for the example.But I still have some questions.
1)Is viewHelper used to segregate as code from mxml?
2)Its not used in any of examples provided for Cairngorm 2 nor is it 
part of any discussion about cairngorm 2 architecture.Is it an 
optional feature retained from cairngorm 0.99?
3)If I dont have any need to manipulate the mxml file from other 
files(which you have mentioned below), should I still go ahead and 
create a viewHelper for each view?

 So, the line of code viewHelper:MainScreenViewHelper 
id=mainScreenViewHelper / instantiates the ViewHelper class and 
registers it with the singleton class ViewLocator. This means that 
any class or mxml file can access the components of the 
MainScreen.mxml by calling:
 
 var viewHelper : MainScreenViewHelper = MainScreenViewHelper
(ViewLocator.getInstance().getViewHelper(mainScreenViewHelper));
 viewHelper.updateLabel(otherTextField.text);

[flexcoders] Re: Buffer progress bar for streaming FLV

2006-08-31 Thread Chris Simeone
So, does the following summary sound right?

1) I can't create a progress bar that shows buffering progress as long
as I use the mx:videoDisplay component (I'm hoping my assumption on
this point is wrong). 

2) I have to use the netStream objects if I want to create a buffering
progress bar, because that's the only way I can access the streams
time and bufferLength properties.

Thanks!

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Specifying LineSeries itemRenderer with Actionscript

2006-08-31 Thread Stephen Gilson





For documentation on renderers, there are a few places you 
can go. To get you started, there is a general discussion of item renderers and 
editors, including using the Component tag, here:

http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/0820.html

There 
is a description in that chapter of setting an item renderer or item editor in 
ActionScript here:

http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/0832.html

These chapters are on general usage of renderers and editors,not 
specifically to charts. There is a section on creating charts in AS 
here:

http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/1217.html

But it 
does not get into the details of renderers. That is something we can add in an 
upcoming release.

flexcoders@yahoogroups.comSubject: RE: [flexcoders] Re: Specifying 
LineSeries itemRenderer with Actionscript





Well, in theory, we've gone to 
great lengths (and had long, heated, philisophical 'discussions' (read: knock 
down drag out fights)) over what the relationship between MXML and actionscript 
should be. Right now, we try as much as possible to follow a very strict 
'no compiler magic' policy...specifically:
 - there's are simple rules for how an 
actionscript class's API dictates how it is used in MXML. a developer 
should be able to look at a snippet of MXML and understand instantly how you 
would achieve the same thing in Actionscript (and vice 
versa).
 - variable references and expressions in MXML 
should be implemented using binding. That means a developer should be able to 
look at the MXML and know that if there are curly braces, it's a bit of code, 
and if there aren't, it's a literal value.
 - Beyond three or four core language tags 
(Script, Style, Repeater, Component, ??? ) the compiler should have no special 
knowledge of MXML other than the simple mapping rules described above. if 
it's all driven by rules and classes, then it improves the chances you the 
developer will be able to learn the rules and figure out. What's more, if it's 
driven by rules and classes, then you can extend the product by writing your own 
classes that get access to all the same features and functionality our classes 
do.

That's the theory. And the debate continues to this 
day. As we add more functionality and features to the SDK, it gets very 
tempting to try and customize the MXML Schema in ways that don't quite follow 
the basic AS--MXML mapping rules. But so far we're still resisting 
them.

Now one of the downsides of following these 'simple rules' 
is that at times the MXML for a particular construct or feature becomes much 
more verbose than we'd like it to be. In those cases, we've got three 
choices:

 1) change the AS API to generate a less 
verbose MXML syntax. This works in some cases (i.e., the API for 
constraints was changed between beta 1 and beta 2 for this reason). But 
sometimes there's just a fundamental conflict between what dictates a good AS 
API vs. a good MXML syntax. 
 2) Another option would be to just allow 
custom syntax that breaks the mapping rules for that particular component. 
We don't like doing that (see above). 
 3) A third option is to extend the rules 
to allow for simplifying the syntax. If the use case your looking at it 
general enough, and it can be tied to a generic set of inputs (i.e., a 
particular interface, or base class, rather than a specific component), that can 
be a generally useful solution. It also has a cost associated with it, and 
can be abused, so we try and be judicious in how we use it. The more we 
complexify (? nice word, huh ?) the mappping rules of MXML, the harder it gets 
to do the translation in your head as you read some markup, and the less benefit 
we get as described above. 

So in this case, we decided that the situation was 
generically useful enough to extend the language. For 'renderer' or 
'template' use cases, where you write a component that can be passed another 
component to instantiate for some sub-part of itself, we wanted to make the 
markup simple.

So here the rule is that when the compiler sees a property 
of type IFactory, MXML allows two ways of specifying it. The first is just by 
providing a class name, like so:

LineSeries 
itemRenderer="mx.charts.renderers.DiamondItemRenderer" 
/

In which case the compiler automatically wraps the class in 
a ClassFactory instance and assigns it.

The second is to specify an inline derived component, like 
so:

LineSeries
 itemRenderer
 Component
 
DiamondItemRenderer
 

 
/
 /

In which case the compiler reads the contents of the 
Component tag as a separate MXML component, creates a new class for it, wraps 
_it_ in a ClassFactory, and assigns that. 

So...once you know that rule, it should in theory be 
straightforward to recognize its use in some MXML or the API documentation and 
know how you

[flexcoders] Best way to use Formatters and Bindings

2006-08-31 Thread Clarke Bishop



What's the best practice for using Formatters and Bindings together?

For example:
- I have a currency value that's stored as a number in my model (And in the database)
- I retrieve the value and use the CurrencyFormatter to make it look like $15,123 which is displayed in a TextInput component.
- So far, so good. But, now my user edits the value and wants to save it back to the database
- But, the new valuein the TextInput component isn't a number anymore!

Do I:
- Have to write an unformatter for each formatter?
- Create a custom CurrencyTextInput component that has both a formatted and unformatted version of the data
- Am I looking at this all wrong and need to think differently?

It seems like this situation must come up all the time, and I expect an easier way to make it work. All the examples in the docs show formatting with two fields -- One formatted and one not formatted. But, I don't think users want to see it this way.


Thanks much for any advice!

 Clarke

Re: [flexcoders] Embedding fonts at runtime

I've been working with a font I don't have installed on my computer, so I could be sure it was working, although I also tried it with system fonts and it has worked. The only thing I can think of is that I set the fontName to the same value as the actual font name. If that doesn't work I can send you my code.

Well my experience is with the other adobe teams. BUT

I have had devs/engineers call me on a sunday. On their own dime, to see 
what we could sort out regarding some persistant but hard to nail bugs.

All the teams at adobe I have had the pleasure of working with have all 
busted themselves to make sure things were working. As for flex, we get 
a huge commitment just in them answering things on this list, not to 
mention all the adobe blogs with examples etc.

I personally think anyone who cries for 24 hour personal tech service 
should be paying a hefty price for a yearly agreement ;)

   One addition to this, which is that we always include the  
  space character when you specify the unicode range. I'm not  sure the 
  original reasoning for this, but I just noticed it  in the code. Also, 
  you can specify multiple ranges,  separated by commas. -Brian

  I'll definitely have to check this out.  On a related note, I

  [Embed(systemFont='Symbol', fontName='mySymbol',

   I know you can use @font-face, which appears to  
  automatically generate a variable in the class, but its not a 
  consistently named  variable. I am sure a utility function in 
  the class could be used to  ferret out that variable 
  name.   Daniel Freiman wrote:

Re: [flexcoders] addressing items rendered in TileList

2006-08-31 Thread Phil Marston






OK trying again ...
I've worked out I can change a property of the dataProvider and the
change is automatically reflected in the itemRenderer thanks

Now what I'm struggling with is where the user clicks on the
itemRenderer (aka thumbnail) I can't seem to disable the thumbnails
response (the clickability seems to belong to the TileList rather than
the thumbnail) - I've got a display component that uses the
TileList.selectedIndex as the dataProvider, but I don't see how I can
stop it using the items who's properties I've set to "don't use".

See the old macromedia video gallery for the sort of functionality I'd
like to emulate
http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/flashpro/video/gallery/ 

So is there a way I can do a conditional response or conditional bind
(bind to TileList.selectedIndex if the item has been set to "enabled =
false" for instance?)

Cheers,

Phil

[flexcoders] Using Embedded fonts in htmlText

2006-08-31 Thread Bart Vanhulle










I was wondering if someone managed to achieve this. After
struggling with embedding some fonts I finally got it working to some degree.

The fonts are taken in most components. However, when Im
trying to use an embedded font in a font tag and drop it in the
htmlText attribute of a TextArea, the text is not using the embedded font,
although the documentation claims it should. (devguide, Using tags in
html text)



This is what I have in the css:



@font-face {

 src:
url('/assets/fonts/arial_emb.ttf');

 fontWeight:
normal;

 fontFamily:
arialtest

}



.textarea { embedFonts: true; font-weight: normal; }



In the component I have something like this:



mx:TextArea id=info width=200
height=100 htmlText= /



info.htmlText = font face='arialtest'
size='14'test test test test/font;



This will take the default font setting of the flash
application. arialtest is never applied.



This however works:



mx:TextArea id=info width=200
height=100 fontFamily=arialtest htmlText= /



info.htmlText = font size='14'test test test
test/font;



But this is not what I want as there will be text in
different formatting styles in that field



Bart

Re: [flexcoders] Include fonts in RSL Flex2

2006-08-31 Thread Daniel Freiman



We've been working on something similar in a thread called embeding fonts at runtime although i'm not sure it's exactly what you want. Some of it might be useful. First check to see if the font is actually there using 
Font.enumerateFonts(). Second, we're currently looking into whether the embeded font name needs to be the same as the actual font. If the other thread is close enough jump on it, otherwise I tell you if anything comes up that may be applicable.

I have been scowering the internet for
information on how to embed fonts in an RSL for Flex2.



I ran accress this posting by Darron
Schall but it looks like it is for Flex 1.5? Anyway I gave it a try but it
doesn't work for me. I set up 2 projects, 1 regular flex project and
another as a library project. My regular project references the library project
as an RSL and in my library project I created one component with the @font-face
css tag in the mx:Style tag. I also created a manifest file and set up
the library project to use the manifest file.



Everything compiles right and my component
from the RSL shows up in my main app but when I try to use the font in the RSL
the text in my main app disappears (ie just like in Flash if you tell it to use
embedded fonts but the font doesn't exist).



This has to be possible with Flex 2! Heck
fonts alone are one of the most important things to stuff in an RSL half the
time!



What am I doing wrong? Is there some more
documentation on this that I missed or a more recent blog post that I missed?

[flexcoders] Project Problem with Flex Builder2

2006-08-31 Thread david . aaron



Hi Folks --I was debugging a piece of code in Flex Builder 2 and while
requesting a browser debug session the system reported a problem with the
project file and asked if I would like to continue. I clicked 'ok' and then it
threw up a dialog box with the following error 'File not found:
file:C/Documents and Settings/Flex Builder/Redesign/bin/main.html'. As far as I
am able to tell all of the required files are present. Has anyone else
encountered this problem and if so do they have a solution that is better than
starting over?This is not the first time I have encountered this
'feature' but it is the first time that I would rather not  rebuild my files
from scratch or cut and paste.ThanksDavid

I don't know why that is happening, and I don't know what's causing it exactly, but one workaround that I've seen elsewhere that might work here is to set the fontfamily (Arial, Symbol) to every font you might want to use in that textarea and then you should using html be able to set the the htmlText to any font that you have set fontFamily to (even mixing fonts simultaneously). Don't know why this should work, but it has for me in UITextFields which is the textfield inside the TextArea.

I was wondering if someone managed to achieve this. After

The fonts are taken in most components. However, when I'm
trying to use an embedded font in a font tag and drop it in the
htmlText attribute of a TextArea, the text is not using the embedded font,
although the documentation claims it should. (devguide, 'Using tags in
html text')



This is what I have in the css:



@font-face {

 src:
url('/assets/fonts/arial_emb.ttf');

 fontWeight:
normal;

 fontFamily:
arialtest

}



.textarea { embedFonts: true; font-weight: normal; }



In the component I have something like this:



mx:TextArea id=info width=200
height=100 htmlText= /



info.htmlText = font face='arialtest'
size='14'test test test test/font;



This will take the default font setting of the flash
application. arialtest is never applied.



This however works:



mx:TextArea id=info width=200
height=100 fontFamily=arialtest htmlText= /



info.htmlText = font size='14'test test test
test/font;



But this is not what I want as there will be text in
different formatting styles in that field…

RE: [flexcoders] Include fonts in RSL Flex2

2006-08-31 Thread Lance Linder












Think I figured part of the problem out. Seems
Darron Schalls blog post is still valid as I am able to get this to work
on Label or Button components but TextArea (which I first tried) is a different
story. So it seems that TextArea is doing something under the covers that Label
and Button dont.



Any ideas?

Subject: [flexcoders] Include
fonts in RSL Flex2













I have been scowering the internet for information on how to embed
fonts in an RSL for Flex2.



I ran accress this posting by Darron Schall but it looks like it is
for Flex 1.5? Anyway I gave it a try but it doesnt work for me. I set up
2 projects, 1 regular flex project and another as a library project. My regular
project references the library project as an RSL and in my library project I
created one component with the @font-face css tag in the mx:Style tag.
I also created a manifest file and set up the library project to use the
manifest file.



Everything compiles right and my component from the RSL shows up in
my main app but when I try to use the font in the RSL the text in my main app
disappears (ie just like in Flash if you tell it to use embedded fonts but the
font doesnt exist).



This has to be possible with Flex 2! Heck fonts alone are one of
the most important things to stuff in an RSL half the time!



What am I doing wrong? Is there some more documentation on this
that I missed or a more recent blog post that I missed?



Thanks for any help!

RE: [flexcoders] Using Embedded fonts in htmlText

2006-08-31 Thread Bart Vanhulle












Thank you for the suggestion. It tried it
on the TextArea but it didnt work. (putting it in the css and applying it via the
styleName).

I might give it a try with the UITextField
component later on, maybe it will work then.



I wonder if this should be filed as a bug
as the documentation clearly states that the face attribute in the font tag
also checks for embedded fonts

[flexcoders] Re: Buffer progress bar for streaming FLV

2006-08-31 Thread Chris Simeone
Hi Abdul

Your last two responses were helpful, but I don't think they solve my
problem. 

As far as I can tell, to show buffering progress of streaming video as
a percentage reflected in a progress bar I need to do this...

var loadpct:Number = ns.time / ns.bufferLength * 100;
bar.setProgress(loadpct,100);
bar.label= Buffering  + loadpctRnd + %;

After reading through the various Flex Video ActionScript Classes
(found in my install path - C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex 2\Flex
Builder\Flex SDK 2\frameworks\source\mx\controls\videoClasses), I've
learned that they don't expose the netStream bufferLength property.

So, I answered my own question - showing streaming video buffering
progress using the mx:videoDisplay component is not possible.

However it could be possible. As an experiment, I've copied the Flex
video classes to a test project. I'm changing all package references
to point to my new project. I'm modifying the classes to expose the
properties needed. And I'm adding a Boolean property to the
mx:videoDisplay component that will show a buffering progress bar
when set to true.

At the very least, I think Adobe needs to modify their videoDisplay
class to get a buffering progress percentage for an RMTP URL.

I'll let you know how it goes. 

Chris

Right now I have it working 90% at least.

Button and Label do! Go figure L



I think my biggest problem all along was
that I was testing with only the TextArea component once I started testing

I will keep an eye on the thread you

We've been working on something similar in a thread
called embeding fonts at runtime although i'm not sure it's exactly
what you want. Some of it might be useful. First check to see if
the font is actually there using Font.enumerateFonts(). Second,
we're currently looking into whether the embeded font name needs to be the same
as the actual font. If the other thread is close enough jump on it,
otherwise I tell you if anything comes up that may be applicable.

[flexcoders] InputText + StyleSheet

2006-08-31 Thread Xavi Beumala



Hi all,I'm developing a kind of markup editor. It has to allow the user to select text and apply some xml tags to it as well as write new text in the textfield. The problem I'm having is that when you apply a styleSheet to the inputText field to render this custom tags, this field stops being an inputText, it becomes not editable. 
I've been reading in livedocs (http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/flash/text/TextField.html) that this is a known issue... but is there any creational workarroun/solution? I've been playing with textFormat but I haven't found a way to keep custom tags/attributes in the dirty autogenerated html code so I'm loosing my custom tags.
Any light?Thx so much!X.

[flexcoders] Re: Cairngorm / Hibernate Best Practices

2006-08-31 Thread dreuimar
Thanks for the info, I've actually been using Spring predominantly for
my standard J2EE web apps, but haven't used it with Flex. I know it's
possible, and have been thinking of doing a Flex/Spring/Hibernate
setup, but haven't yet. Is it difficult to use Spring with Flex, and
where would I go to begin?

Also, 4 years of a going to a Liberal Arts school forces archaic words
like 'hitherto' into your vocabulary, haha.

Hi,



 I have an interface Im building and it
seems like the it has too many sections which causes the whole app to scroll

[flexcoders] Problem with Sorting

2006-08-31 Thread dreuimar
Hey everyone,

I have an array collection of Industry objects which are all
sub-industries. Each industry object has as a property a parent
industry (of datatype Industry);

Industry VO contains properties:

industryId : int;
parent : Industry;
name : String;

I want to sort the array by the parent industry first, and then the
children industries names.

I was going to do something like:

var sort : Sort = new Sort();
sort.fields = [ new SortField(parent.name, true), new
SortField(name, true) ];

...but this isn't working.

Is there any way of going deeper than just immediate properties for a
sortfield?

Brennan

 Well my experience is with the other adobe teams. BUT

 I have had devs/engineers call me on a sunday. On their own dime, to see
 what we could sort out regarding some persistant but hard to nail bugs.

 All the teams at adobe I have had the pleasure of working with have all
 busted themselves to make sure things were working. As for flex, we get
 a huge commitment just in them answering things on this list, not to
 mention all the adobe blogs with examples etc.

 I personally think anyone who cries for 24 hour personal tech service

has anyone been able to get the lockedcolumncount to work on a

[flexcoders] Customizing datatip function for 100% bar chart

2006-08-31 Thread j_sevlie
Using Flex 2.

I have a 100% bar chart that I need help figuring out how to get
access to some of the series data for display in a data tip.  Here's
the scenario:

There are 4 regions in the country, each of them gets their own bar in
the chart.

- North Region
- South Region
- West Region
- East Region

Each bar has 4 individual peices to it, which together sum to 100%:

- Used Sales 
- New Sales
- Parts
- Accessories

What I need is a way to display the name of the grouping (Used Sales,
New Sales, etc) inside my datatip.  I cannot for the life of me figure
out how to do this.

Here's the code that I'm working with:


-
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import mx.charts.HitData;

public function dataTipsBarChart(e:HitData):String { 
/*
so far I know how to get the region name, but how do you
get the actual displayname of the series that is being 
rolled over?
*/
return e.item.region;
}
]]
/mx:Script

mx:BarChart x=10 y=36 width=80% height=124
id=barchartDealers type=100% showDataTips=true

/mx:series
/mx:BarChart
mx:Legend dataProvider={barchartDealers} x=74.5 y=151
width=522 height=31 fontSize=9 id=barchartDealersLegend/
-

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!

I hope that my example was clear enough, it should run on it's own if
you cut/paste it into a blank Flex app.

Re: [flexcoders] amfphp-AS class mapping issue

2006-08-31 Thread Oriol Gual



Have you changed your advancedsettings.php to correctly map your classes?2006/8/31, joangarnetdotcom [EMAIL PROTECTED]:



Hi, I'm in a Flex2 app.I can't manage to map a php return value to the right AS type...
In my service method I have this return statement:
return new Result( true, new Status() );In Result.php I have
public $_explicitType = org.bestiario.website.Result;
In Status.php I havepublic $_explicitType = org.bestiario.website.Status;
I also have the corresponding Result.as and 
Status.as classes on the Flex side.In my HTTP debugger (Charles) I can see the AMF packet coming with correct types as you can see here: 
http://www.joangarnet.com/_otras/charles.gif
But when the callback executes and I do:
public function onResult( event:* = null ):void{
 var res:Result = Result(event.result);
}I get the following exception:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert [EMAIL PROTECTED] to org.bestiario.website.Result.
Any ideas??Cheers!
P.S. I'm using Renaun's RemoteObjectAMF0 class to call amfphp services.

[flexcoders] Wacky SOAP request construction with .NET web service... again

2006-08-31 Thread ben.clinkinbeard
I have already come across a couple of (confirmed by Adobe support)
bugs with the way Flex constructs SOAP requests when using .NET web
services and am wondering if I've found a third. I suppose this could
be the expected behavior but it seems awfully weird to me. Part of the
request that my web service expects is a ContainersToRetrieve node,
which contains 1 or more child ContainerType nodes. Like this:

ContainersToRetrieve
  ContainerTypeIndustryTrends/ContainerType
  ContainerTypeRPRSelections/ContainerType
/ContainersToRetrieve

When constructing the request in MXML, I have discovered that if I am
only sending one ContainerType argument that I need to omit the
ContainerType node and put the contents directly inside
ContainersToRetrieve. Like this:

ContainersToRetrieve
IndustryTrends

RE: [flexcoders] Stroke color on lineSeries - bug?

2006-08-31 Thread Sreejith Unnikrishnan






Thanks guys.
Searched the forum later and saw this post by 
Ely.

"You're using Beta 2? You need to set lineStroke, not 
stroke. The stroke property affects the color of the points on the line, not the 
line itself.

There's a bug in beta2 where the legend is currently 
rendering the stroke color, not the lineStroke color. So for now, set 
both. It will be fixed in the next drop.

Ely."

  For LineSeries, you use the stroke style property to define a style 
  forthe chart item's renderer. You use the lineStroke property to define 
  thestroke of the actual line segments. This is documented 
  here:"Defining strokes for LineSeries and AreaSeries"http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/1262.html

[flexcoders] Unable to get trace to work...

2006-08-31 Thread Kyle
I am writing some classes and am trying to use trace statements to
test my methods; however, when I run (or debug) my application, my
trace statements are not being output to the console window. Does
anyone know if there is some setting or preference that I might be
missing, or know what might be causing this?

My test class looks like this:

package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;

public class ProgrammingBasics extends MovieClip {

private var _quantity:Number;

public function ProgrammingBasics() {
_quantity = 5;
runTrace();
}

private function runTrace():void {
trace(getTraceValue());
}

private function getTraceValue():Number {
return _quantity;
}
}
}



The console output looks like this:

[flexcoders] Multiple Screen Application

2006-08-31 Thread Sam Shrefler



I'm just looking for an theory overview / suggestions on how to handle multiple screens with nothing in common:

For example, i have an application that I'd like to have a menubar on every single screen.
After that, i'd have say 5 - 20 totally unrelated screens each with their own display and function.
I see on each of those screens where viewStates would comein handy.

My question is:

Should I make viewStates for every single screen, or would using a viewStack be better? Is there a best practice for an application with multiple screens?

ThanksSam

[flexcoders] Re: Multiple Screen Application

2006-08-31 Thread dreuimar
I started out using states, with the current state being bound to a
property in the model (using Cairngorm.) Lately, as my application has
dozens of screens and different users are privelaged to have certain
screens at their disposal, I use a view stack (it's easier on the eyes
to program, IMO), and have each state's viewhelper extended to
register that given state as a screen object in an arraycollection of
available screens. I also have a constants file of screen titles (my
menu reflects the title of the current screen.)

I register each screen with its static title (pulled from the
constants class), and fire off a custom cairngorm event when switching
screens.

e.g.:
CairngormEventDispatcher.getInstance().dispatchEvent( new
ScreenSwitchEvent(Constants.MainMenu));

Then I have a class that implements Command and have it do a search in
the screen array for any object who's title is Constants.MainMenu.
I've found this to be the best way, mainly because I rely on
permissions and some screens have read-write access, some only have
read, etc.

For a smaller application, you could just use states and have a string
property in the model called currentState that the currentState of
your VBox is bound to. (I say VBox instead of application because I
want a menu bar to be at the top of every screen, so the content is
loaded into the vbox.) Then switching screens is as easy as calling:
model.currentState = Constants.MainMenu

[flexcoders] Re: how to show/hide a line in a chart

2006-08-31 Thread Doug Lowder
If you have your line chart bound to a series array, you can build a 
new array that contains only the lines you wish to show, and then 
change your chart's binding to that array instead of the original 
array. I used this approach with area/line combination charts with 
four elements, and it worked perfectly fine.

RE: [flexcoders] Unable to get trace to work...

2006-08-31 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
Do you have an mm.cfg file that enables tracing and sets the trace
output file name and location? 

Here's a technote about how to get mm.cfg set up correctly: 

http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_19323 

One that is all set up, your trace statements will be outputted to the
file you specify and you can just tail that for all runtime trace
statements.

RE: [flexcoders] Problem with Sorting

2006-08-31 Thread Deepa Subramaniam












The SortField objects take the name of the
field in the object to be sorted as a String  so your dot _expression_
will not work.



What you can do is write a custom
compareFunction for your Sort object. A compareFunction takes two objects and
returns -1, 0, or 1 depending on which order the two objects should be sorted.
The ASDoc for Sort.compareFunction has the function signature and a good
example so check that out for more info. 



Your custom compareFunction can access
top-level and sub-properties on each object and then sort accordingly.

Hey everyone,

I have an array collection of Industry objects which are all

industry (of datatype Industry);

Industry VO contains properties:

industryId : int;
parent : Industry;

I want to sort the array by the parent industry first, and then the
children industries names.

I was going to do something like:

var sort : Sort = new Sort();
sort.fields = [ new SortField(parent.name, true), new
SortField(name, true) ];

...but this isn't working.

Is there any way of going deeper than just immediate properties for a

[flexcoders] Playing back a SWF with Flex

2006-08-31 Thread mitchgrasso
Although the docs would lead me to believe this isn't possible, I 
wanted to confirm whether you can dynamically load a SWF animation 
created in Flash into a Flex application and be able to access it's 
timeline to jump to a frame or set the framerate, etc. I have been 
using SWFLoader to load the SWF file. 

Am I missing something here? Do we need to wait for Flash 9 until you 
can control a SWF animation in Flex? I hope I am just lamely confused...

thanks

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Unable to get trace to work...

2006-08-31 Thread Deepa Subramaniam












Hi Kyle 



Check out the first line in step #2 in the
technote:



Make sure you have copied the mm.cfg file from your flex_install_dir/bin
directory to the client machine's home directory.



Alternatively, you can create a file, name
it mm.cfg, drop it in your home directory and add the settings specified later
in the technote.

Thanks Deepa,
I have tried following the instructions on setting up my trace debug
output; however, I cannot find the file mm.cfg anywhere on my system.
>From what I have seen in examples, I should simply be able to open the
console window and see the trace outputs there when I debug the
application; however when I run debug no traces are output to the
console. Has anyone run into this issue, or successfully located the
mm.cfg file on a window xp system?

Thanks!

[flexcoders] Re: Buffer progress bar for streaming FLV

2006-08-31 Thread Chris Simeone
Well, my hack worked.

I created a new package in my project. Then I copied the Flex video
classes into the package folders and hacked those (about 50 lines of
code in 10 files - less not counting the package name changes). Then I
created a new video event - BUFFERINGPCT. The VideoEvent object now
contains a numeric property named bufferingProgress. The hack works
like a charm!

Now I can track buffering progress using my hacked version of the
mx:videoDisplay component.

The question is how do I get Adobe to add this type of functionality
to the framework?

Greg  Abdul, thanks for all your responses. I learned much and I hope
other find this thread useful.

[flexcoders] Custom scrolling with TileList

2006-08-31 Thread qnotemedia
I have a vertical scroll-only TileList.  Is there anyway to:
1) remove the scrollbar, and
2) Use buttons at the top and bottom of the TileList that scroll the 
list while mouse over?

As a test, so far, I have a skinny and short TileList with a bunch of 
items in it.  When you mouseover a button it runs a function with the 
following code:

while (tileListing.verticalScrollPosition  5) {
tileListing.verticalScrollPosition = 
tileListing.verticalScrollPosition + 1;
}

Unfortunately, this obviously has the following problems:
a) The code runs so fast that the list jumps.  Is there any way to 
make the movement slow?
b) How can I get the maximum length of the tileListing's dataProvider 
(i.e. to replace the 5 in the above example).
c) In the end, I'd like the scroll to stop based on both the 
mouseOver and the tileList's dataProvider length.  Is there a 
button.mouseOver == true type of condition?

Thanks!
 - Chris

[flexcoders] Is there a simple Cairngorm 2 walkthrough out there?

2006-08-31 Thread g8torjoe
I realize that Cairngorm isn't exactly intended for an extremely small
app, but I am wondering if anyone has seen a very basic tutorial on
creating a simple app using Cairngorm.  I have read all of the
articles out there a couple of times and have a good grasp on the
principles of the design pattern, but seem to get bogged down on the
structure of an actual app.  I would love to find a very simple app
that walks through the creation from beginning to end.  So, does
anyone know of anything or should I start going through the Cairngorm
Store again.  :)

Thanks!!!

[flexcoders] XrayLogger for AS3

2006-08-31 Thread John Grden



I'm in the very early stages of getting Xray's connector
ported over the AS3 and the first step has been to get the new Logger
up and running. So far, it's working great and I've included an
OutputPanel.mxml that users can include it in their app if they don't want to
use the xray interface ( plus, i've not implemented log level switching
with xray's interface yet ).

http://mirror1.cvsdude.com/trac/osflash/xray/browser/downloads/connector/flex/XrayLogger_as3_alpha.zip?format=raw
screenshot:http://www.rockonflash.com/xray/images/XrayLogger_Flex2_withInterface_0.png

some featurues:
1. log level support (debug, info, warn, error, fatal)
2. time stamp 
3. Calling method is reported
4. objects are recursed
5. outputs to Xray's interface if you have it running

OutputPanel features (not necessary for running logger):
1. runtime log level control
2. Resizeable (drag lower right corner)
3. Window shade by double clicking header of OutputPanel's header area
4. Search

Usage:copy com.blitzagency.xray.logger into your classes/src folderif you want to use the OutputPanel (optional):copy OutputPanel.mxml to your src folder or where ever your main app is.
Add this line to your app:ns1:OutputPanel id=outputPanel/Add this property to your mx:Application node:
xmlns:ns1=*Using it in your app:
import com.blitzagency.xray.logger.XrayLog;
.
public var log:XrayLog;
.
log = new XrayLog();
log.debug(message:String [, dump:object]);
log.info(message:String [, dump:object]);
log.warn(message:String [, dump:object]);
log.error(message:String [, dump:object]);
log.fatal(message:String [, dump:object]);I've included the FlashDevelop project in the zip. I would love suggestions/comments on implementation and features. Right now, it doesn't color code the output based on the log level, but that is something I'm looking into.
Anyway, if anyone wants to give it a whirl, I'd really appreciate the feedback,Thanksjpg

[flexcoders] Re: Multiple Screen Application

2006-08-31 Thread dreuimar
In Cairngorm you can associate helper classes for views. For instance,
I have a package with all of my views, and in that package is a
subpackage of helpers.

Each view has it's own helper, so MainMenu might have MainMenuHelper
as a class, which extends ViewHelper. ViewHelper registers itself with
the singleton ViewLocator, so that you can access the logic of any
particularly ViewHelper from anywhere in the application.

I went further and have each helper implement an interface I call
IViewHelper, which has two methods: enter() and exit(), which the
SwitchStateCommand executes any code in them upon entering or exiting
a screen. This makes me able to have alert windows show up if someone
tries to leave a screen without saving their work, for example.

I have the views set up like this:

Class BaseState extends VBox and has within it:
[Bindable]
protected var model : Model = Model.getInstance();

This is so I don't need to keep getting the model for each view I
design (in case I need to bind any of the fields to a property in the
model.

Then each of these BaseStates include their helper.

e.g., MainMenu.mxml would have:
helper:MainMenuHelper id=MainMenuHelper/

The helpers set up like:
class MainMenuHelper extends ViewHelper implements IViewHelper

Make sense?

  I started out using states, with the current state being bound to a

  to program, IMO), and have each state's viewhelper extended to
  register that given state as a screen object in an arraycollection of
  available screens. I also have a constants file of screen titles (my
  menu reflects the title of the current screen.)
 
  I register each screen with its static title (pulled from the
  constants class), and fire off a custom cairngorm event when switching
  screens.
 
  e.g.:
  CairngormEventDispatcher.getInstance().dispatchEvent( new
  ScreenSwitchEvent(Constants.MainMenu));
 
  Then I have a class that implements Command and have it do a search in
  the screen array for any object who's title is Constants.MainMenu.
  I've found this to be the best way, mainly because I rely on
  permissions and some screens have read-write access, some only have
  read, etc.
 
  For a smaller application, you could just use states and have a string
  property in the model called currentState that the currentState of
  your VBox is bound to. (I say VBox instead of application because I
  want a menu bar to be at the top of every screen, so the content is
  loaded into the vbox.) Then switching screens is as easy as calling:
  model.currentState = Constants.MainMenu

[flexcoders] Re: Is this a bug? About Number type.

2006-08-31 Thread beloved_zhou
Thank you very much. That help me a lot.

--- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Gordon Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 You presumably meant the result should be 23.7, not 23.8.
 
  
 
 However, getting 23.703 isn't a bug; you'd get the same
 answer in other languages like Java and C++. The imprecision is because
 Number in ActionScript (like float in Java and C++) stores a
 floating-point value as a binary fraction, not as a decimal fraction.
 These datatypes use binary fractions because that's how current
 microprocessors store and manipulate floating-point values.
 
  
 
 Java solves this problem by having a BigDecimal class whjich can store
 decimal fractions. In that case, computations are slower because it
 takes many microsprocessor instructions to do a single operation.
 
  
 
 The current version of ActionScript doesn't have any decimal fraction
 datatype, but it is under consideration for a future version of the
 language. The lack of this feaure comes up about once a week, and some
 participants on flexcoders have discussed the possibiliy of porting
 BigDecimal or its equivalent to ActionScript.
 
  
 
 Perhaps you can simply round your results to the precision you need?
 Take a look at the toFixed() method of the Number class.

Re: [flexcoders] Is FDS is a CGI technology?

2006-08-31 Thread hank williams



Actually, while there are nuances that you can benefit from if you really understand servlets, if you can write java and have POJOs, you can access them in a relatively simple way. Then extending that to using the more advanced features of FDS (like Data Services) really has nothing to do with understanding servlets in particular.
In other words, if you know some java, you are in good shape.Regards,HankOn 8/31/06, Mark Lapasa

 Using Flex 2.
 
 I have a 100% bar chart that I need help figuring out how to 
 get access to some of the series data for display in a data 
 tip. Here's the scenario:
 
 There are 4 regions in the country, each of them gets their 
 own bar in the chart..
 
 - North Region
 - South Region
 - West Region
 - East Region
 
 Each bar has 4 individual peices to it, which together sum to 100%:
 
 - Used Sales
 - New Sales
 - Parts
 - Accessories
 
 What I need is a way to display the name of the grouping 
 (Used Sales, New Sales, etc) inside my datatip. I cannot for 
 the life of me figure out how to do this.
 
 Here's the code that I'm working with:
 
 -
 mx:Script
 ![CDATA[
 import mx.charts.HitData;
 
 public function dataTipsBarChart(e:HitData):String {
 /*
 so far I know how to get the region name, but how do you get 
 the actual displayname of the series that is being rolled over?
 */
 return e.item.region;
 }
