[flexcoders] Re: Multiline TreeItemRenderer
Hi again
Well, this is the subclass. Compiles, runs and everything but the tree
elements are not multiline...
package
{
import mx.controls.treeClasses.*;
public class TIRMultiline extends TreeItemRenderer
{
public function TIRMultiline() {
super();
}
override protected function commitProperties():void
{
super.commitProperties();
label.multiline =true;
}
}
}
Just in case...

I have a Tree component, and I want the labels to be multiline. I
found that the TreeItemRenderer has a protected property label, of

where in the class file should i do it? and how?

[flexcoders] FlexPrintJob problem
Hi
I am trying to print a list of ID's from a canvas. I have the following
code:
private function printMovies(e:Event):void
{
var printJob:FlexPrintJob = new FlexPrintJob();
if(printJob.start()){
var printCanvas:Canvas = new Canvas();
var txtApprovedList:Text = new Text();
txtApprovedList.width = printJob.pageWidth;
txtApprovedList.text = textstring;
code for generating string
printCanvas.addChild(txtApprovedList);
printCanvas.setStyle(backgroundColor,0xFF);
this.parentApplication.MainPanel.addChild(printCanvas); //just so I can see
it renders OK, will be removed
printJob.addObject(printCanvas);
printJob.send();
}
}
With the last 2 lines commented out I get the print dialogue then when I
click print the canvas appears with the text in. With the last 2 lines not
commented out I get the print dialogue but when I hit print nothing happens,
no canvas or text appears and nothing prints.
This code does work if I just add the Text Object (not the canvas) to print
but then the text has a grey background.
What am I doing wrong?

Re: [flexcoders] FDS services-config for CFC's
Darren,
When you install fds (example c:\fds) you'll find a folder
resources\config inside it.
This is where you can find an example for each file you'll have to
configure FDS. This is a FDS configuration and not a CF one. The only
thing you'll need to do in the cf side, is to activate the data
management support inside the admin. Be aware that cfcs must be visibles
to the cf instance so if you deploy them into IIS or Apache website,
you'll have to create a mapping so the cfusion instance can resolve the
cfcs paths.
in services-config.xml you'll find the code you'll need to have to
enable cf channels to comunicate with a CF instance

[flexcoders] Re: DataGrid paging?
Indeed, a VScrollBar has really a lot of flexibility! I succeeded in
subscribing to it's events and using the event.preventDefault()
method cancel it's other listeners and it's actions.
Using the configureScrollBars() method, the scrollbar sizing can
easily be configured:
override protected function configureScrollBars():void
{
setScrollBarProperties(something, something, totalRowCount,
rowCount);
}
Where totalRowCount is your total number of records in the table
(let's say 100) and rowCount is existing DataGrid's property
which returns the number of currently VISIBLE rows in the grid. This
value updates every time the grid is resized, so that's the answer
to your question of counting rows.
(rowCount/totalRowCount makes the size of a thumb compared to a
height of a scrollbar)
I've taken a look at your grid - you are basically extending a
Canvas and laying out a DataGrid and indipendant VScrollBar on
that canvas.
My goal is to extend a DataGrid and use only its features.. and till
now it goes well. I prevented default sorting by header click and
refreshing data on scrollbar events. So now I've got something like
a DeadGrid :-) In which clicking headers and moving a scroller
does nothing except raising events which trigger server-side
procedures that fetch a fresh data based on a ScrollEvent.position
and grid.sort. On dataProvider REFRESH event, fresh data is loaded
into the grid..

Question: is there any possibility to control the DataGrids
scrolling thumb position and height?
Because this way a page size would be fixed (rows not scrolling
at
all) and the scroller would be used just for navigation through
pages (instead of the breadcrumbs section above the grid). It
would also give an info of current page / total pages.
It would be nice if the scroller position and height could be
set in
percentage (e.g. positionFromTop=20, height=10) while the loaded
rows count is always equal to grid rows count.
yes, well probably, the VScrollBar has a lot of flexability in it's
display. To be honest this is the first time I've ever used one
directly and I haven't explored it fully. But you should be able
to
get it to work the way you want it too.

I am trying to create a generic method which will create an event of

event, but I am having trouble finding out how to be able to provide
additional attributes as text to the TextEvent etc...
private function catchEvent(event:String, eventtype:String,
attributes:Array = null):void
{
var tempEvent:Class = getDefinitionByName(event) as Class;
var event:* = new tempEvent(eventtype);
//some code
}
I call it like this (only dynamically)
catchEvent(flash.events::MouseEvent, click);
This will create a MouseEvent with type click, but my problem is with
ex the TextEvent with type inputText, which needs the input text.
Is it some kind of way to be able to name the method to which I want
to give some value from a string?
Like I have a string: var methodName:String = text, and in some way
be able to call the text method to the TextEvent with the var methodName?
All in all I need a generic method to be able to create any events,
by providing the event class, type and attribute with a String.
Thank you for any advice!!
[flexcoders] Dynamically sized array collection
Hi All,
I'm hitting my head against a brick wall trying to work this out, but
to no avail.
I would like to have an ArrayCollection which contains a variable
number of ArrayCollections.
My code looks like..
[CODE]
var arrayCollection:ArrayCollection=new ArrayCollection();
var numberOfItems:int=10;
for(var x=1;xnumberOfItems;x++)
{
arrayCollection.addItem(new ArrayCollection());
}
[/CODE]
arrayCollection[0] will contain an array of strings
arrayCollection[x] will contain an array of numbers
Structure wise it's like a spreadsheet, where the first column
contains a title and the other columns numbers.
This collection will be mapped to a DataGrid and an BarChart - with
the x-axis mapped to the array-of-strings and each series mapped to
the numbers (this'll be dynamic, too).
My aim with the collection is to use it to hold SUM values from a
tree-structured XML transmission. The XML transmission has a fixed
debth but the number of properties may different. In my example
below, I have Hours and Cost to SUM but in other XML transmissions
I'll have Hours, Cost, Profit, etc etc.
[XML]
Weeks
Week id=0 name=2007-01

contains a title and the other columns numbers.
This collection will be mapped to a DataGrid and an BarChart - with
the x-axis mapped to the array-of-strings and each series mapped to
the numbers (this'll be dynamic, too).
My aim with the collection is to use it to hold SUM values from a
tree-structured XML transmission. The XML transmission has a fixed
debth but the number of properties may different. In my example
below, I have Hours and Cost to SUM but in other XML transmissions
I'll have Hours, Cost, Profit, etc etc.
[XML]
Weeks
Week id=0 name=2007-01
Tarif Name=A Hours=100 Cost=50.00/
Tarif Name=B Hours=100 Cost=50.00/
Tarif Name=C Hours=100 Cost=50.00/
/Week
Week id=1 name=2007-02
Tarif Name=A Hours=100 Cost=50.00/
Tarif Name=C Hours=100 Cost=50.00/
/Week
/Weeks
[/XML]
So, can anyone explain to me what I'm doing wrong?

[flexcoders] Re: Regular Expression Problem
Hey Gordon. Thanks for the answer.
I tried your suggestion, but it still won't work.
I show once again what the problem is.
I'm a novice, please keep this in mind ;-)
This one works but it's case-sensitive. (The function liveSearch is
unnecessary in this case. I know.):
--
public function liveSearch(searchString:String):String
{
return searchString
}
mx:TextInput id=searchStringInput/
mx:DataGrid id=dataGrid
dataProvider={externalXML.customer.(name1.match(liveSearch(searchStringInput.text)))}
--
If I add RegExs the troubles begin. I have a label to show what's
the RegExs output and it's excatly what it should be. If the string is
empty it works just fine. If I start typing it shows nothing.
--
public function liveSearch(searchString:String):String
{
if(searchString == '') {
return ''
}
else {
var regExSearchString:RegExp = new RegExp(searchString, 'i');
var searchTerm:String = regExSearchString.toString();
return searchTerm
}
}
mx:TextInput id=searchStringInput/
mx:DataGrid id=dataGrid
dataProvider={externalXML.customer.(name1.match(liveSearch(searchStringInput.text)))}
--
I also tried a static variable but this one works neither.
So, always when I trie to add RegExs over variables it causes problems.
--
public var test:RegExp = new RegExp('Stich',i);
public var test1:String = test.toString();
mx:DataGrid id=dataGrid
dataProvider={externalXML.customer.(name1.match(test1))}
--
Does anybody know what the problem could be?
Thanks for replies...

Hello All, I posted about this a couple days ago, with no response whatsoever. Let me simplify the post, and ask once again: Has anybody had a Child Object (in my case, an external SWF 2200x2000 in size), spilling over beyond the extents of it's Parent Container (in this case, a TitleWindow)? Actually, here is the hierarchy of the Controls: TitleWindow Canvas UIComponent (with embedded SWF) I have a TitleWindow, with draggable content that sits within - this content is a Vector Lake Map, in which the user can Pan Zoom. The whole point of this, is that the Window can be moved to a place on the desktop, where it doesn't overlap any other content - but can remain open, as a reference to the user. This doesn't happen all the time, but at certain Zoom Levels. Instead of the Title Window cutting off the Map in the Lower Right-Hand corner (which is the normal behavior of any container), it allows the remainder of the Map to show - thus taking up the remaining lower-right extent of the Application Window. If I manually resize the TitleWindow, it immediately triggers the Content to be clipped - and everything looks fine. Once again, the Map ONLY spills over, from 0,0 of the Title Window and down to the Right. It's as if the TitleWindow isn't aware that the Content is larger than it's own size, and forgets to Clip everything starting at the lower Right-Hand corner, and beyond. Is there anything I can do, to prevent this from happening? Thanks in advance for any help or advice offered. Mike Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- See what's inside the new Yahoo!

For your use case I do think that extending DataGrid makes more sense. My goal is to extend a DataGrid and use only its features.. and till now it goes well. I prevented default sorting by header click and refreshing data on scrollbar events. So now I've got something like a DeadGrid :-) In which clicking headers and moving a scroller does nothing except raising events which trigger server-side procedures that fetch a fresh data based on a ScrollEvent.position and grid.sort.

[flexcoders] Re: Pagination using Flex Data Management Service
Jeff, Thanks for your reply. I assume that by paging from client to server you mean that the client gets results fragment by fragment, based on the visible data. For example, if my datagrid shows 8 rows and my paging is set to 5 rows, the datagrid will only get the first two packages of data. In this example 10 rows. When scrolling down by one row at a time, the client retrieves the next package as soon as we reach the 11th row. Correct? Given the current FSD implementation and your suggestion to implement server-side pagination using a fill parameter, the implementation using FDS will probably the same as the implementation you would code for RemoteObjects.

If I could just get an example / sample services-config.xml where someone is using FDS with CF CFCs I'd be fine. Darren
[flexcoders] Using an embedded image at runtime, Please help.
Hi
I am still trying to get this print job done. I have got all of the text
working fine but I can't get the logo to appear at the top, I hope someone
can help.
I have this code:
private function printMovies(e:Event):void
{
var mixiLogo:Image = new Image();
mixiLogo.load(@Embed('../assets/mixipix.swf'));
this.addChild(mixiLogo);
}
But I just get a broken image appearing when I fire the function.
With this version of the function:
private function printMovies(e:Event):void
{
this.printJob = new FlexPrintJob();
if(this.printJob.start()){
this.printPanel = new Panel();
var txtApprovedList:Text = new Text();
var mixLogo:Image = new Image();
mixLogo.load(assets/logo.swf);
txtApprovedList.setStyle(color,0x00);
txtApprovedList.width = printJob.pageWidth;
txtApprovedList.text =
this.txtMovieIDs.text;
this.printPanel.addChild(mixLogo);
this.printPanel.addChild(txtApprovedList);
this.printPanel.setStyle(borderStyle,none);
this.addChild(this.printPanel);
printPanel.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE,this.doPrintCanvas);
}
}
I get the panel and text appearing but no iamge at all, not even a broken
one.
I hope someone can help.

Re: [flexcoders] Cursor Lag
First I'd check to make sure your problem isn't in how the the cursor is set. It's possible that you're calling functions you are not aware of: Look into mouseEvent.updateAfterEvent() if you have functions that receive a MouseEvent to speed things up in general. Also I would just continue to try to optimize your code. Make sure cursor changes are happening on MouseOver and Out instead of move, and make sure those events are being thrown when you think they are. If the itemrenderer has children they could be causing these events to happen more often than you'd like. You can either play with the mouseEnabled of the children and mouseChildren property of the itemrender or check in the event listener to make sure you've actually entered/left the component you think you have. If none of those things work then it is probably the graphic itself. On thing you can try is adding a mouseMove Listener that only calls mouseEvent.updateAfterEvent(). That could fix the problem, but it's kinda a workaround considering it simply forcing an update when the automatic ones should work. - Dan Freiman On 08 Mar 2007 19:53:04 -0800, shuell2000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In a recent project, I was asked to implement mouseover cursors in Flex on itemrenderers in a custom list class. Setting up the assets in a Flash 8 swf was no problem, and switching them out was simple with the cursorManager, but the feel of the applications response after a unique cursor was attached, fell drastically. Screen updates seemed to happen less often, mouse movement was twitchy and mouse detection was terribly flawed while the custom cursor graphic was applied. Has anyone else noticed this issue and has anyone found a solution. Ive had to remove the custom graphic for now, but the client is demanding it and wont be satisfied with the lag that is being caused. John Shuell

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Modules at 360Flex conference
Actually Roger, our friend Paul made possible a fourth solution, which
seems pretty good, which is to use Runtime CSS, as suggested by the
previous email.
Runtime CSS generates the appropriate Font.registerFont calls for you
and you get to use CSS syntax, which is cool. It is basically
automation of (2). It does mean that all modules using a particular
font name must use that one shared font definition, so subsetting
characters would be a dangerous thing to do, but I think it'll work for
most people. I packaged up an example and posted it on my blog at
http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui/presentations/

I think I'm actually supposed to be working on something else, so I
won't be taking on a best practice for binding in unloadable modules

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Modules at 360Flex conference
There are basically three solutions right now.
Brute force hammer solutions:
1) Embed the font everywhere in all SWFs, so that there is never any
confusion about where to find the font, because its everywhere.
2) Use Font.registerFont to globally register a particular font name
across all SWF boundaries forever.
Complicated solution that I tried to automate but it was just too weird:
3) Guarantee that whenever you create a TextField using a font that the
code creating the TextField is located in the same SWF as the font.
You'd think that 3 sounds doable, until you mix in the fact that if it
is utility code, it cannot be code that is shared between a parent SWF
and a client SWF, because the parent's version of the code will get used
and it will look in the wrong SWF context.
Basically, after wrasslin' with 3 for a while (by replacing all
instances of new TextField() with a getter to a per-SWF-unique class
factory hooked off of CSS blobs that almost worked until I hit the
PopupManager case), my head asplode.

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Modules at 360Flex conference
Regarding the embedded font issue:
We have following solution which seems to work well. It's also a
similar solution we have used on Flash 7 and 8.
Embed the fonts into a SWF (Flash 8 or 9) both work with Flex.
Basically put them in a clip on the stage in the Flash IDE. Lets call it
fonts.swf.
Then you create a CSS with following tags
@font-face {
src:url(../fonts/fonts.swf) ;
fontFamily: DIN Neuzeit Grotesk Std Bold Cn ;
}
.MainHeading {
fontFamily: DIN Neuzeit Grotesk Std Bold Cn ;
fontSize: 22px ;
color: #55852A ;
}
Now you use FlexBuilder and compile the CSS into a SWF.
Then use the StyleManager to reference and load the generated
css SWF
Then you could do [UIComponent].styleName = .MainHeading ;
Hope that helps, I might be behind you guys but this has worked
on a couple of tests we have done. I guess the font.swf will still be
loaded from each module using it but it will be returned from the
browser cache. Not sure if Adobe have some internal caching on these
loaders.

[flexcoders] Problem accessing properties of an ItemRenderer
I have a List Component with a custom itemRenderer that has a label
and a progressBar Component. I can update the label just fine w/ the
data property when I update the ArrayCollection that is set as the
dataProvider...
What I want to be able to do is access the progressBar directly so i
can feed it the values of a progress event while uploading files to
the site.
this is the code used to instantiate the List:
mx:List width=250 id=imageList height=250
dataProvider={acImageList} change={makeImageRemovable()}
itemRenderer=ir.imageList/
and this is the code for the itemRenderer called imageList.mxml
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:HBox xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; width=250
height=50
mx:Label text={data.title} width=100 /
mx:Spacer width=10 /
mx:ProgressBar id=pbar width=100 visible={data.showLoader} /
/mx:HBox
The as file I am using to run all the code is in the same file that
the List is instantiated. So i was hoping to be able to address the
elementy by imageList.row.itemRenderer.progressBar. So far it seems
that is an impossible task, but seems like it should be something easy
to do. I was trying to avoid updating the ArrayCollection every time
there was a progress update because it seems that would it would
update the list everytime just to show a status update. However, if
flex is smart enough to know that I am only updating one property and
it doesn't redraw the list everytime that might also be a viable solution.

Hello All, I posted about this a couple days ago, with no response whatsoever. Let me simplify the post, and ask once again: Has anybody had a Child Object (in my case, an external SWF 2200x2000 in size), spilling over beyond the extents of it's Parent Container (in this case, a TitleWindow)? Actually, here is the hierarchy of the Controls: TitleWindow Canvas UIComponent (with embedded SWF) I have a TitleWindow, with draggable content that sits within - this content is a Vector Lake Map, in which the user can Pan Zoom. The whole point of this, is that the Window can be moved to a place on the desktop, where it doesn't overlap any other content - but can remain open, as a reference to the user. This doesn't happen all the time, but at certain Zoom Levels. Instead of the Title Window cutting off the Map in the Lower Right-Hand corner (which is the normal behavior of any container), it allows the remainder of the Map to show - thus taking up the remaining lower-right extent of the Application Window. If I manually resize the TitleWindow, it immediately triggers the Content to be clipped - and everything looks fine. Once again, the Map ONLY spills over, from 0,0 of the Title Window and down to the Right. It's as if the TitleWindow isn't aware that the Content is larger than it's own size, and forgets to Clip everything starting at the lower Right-Hand corner, and beyond. Is there anything I can do, to prevent this from happening? Thanks in advance for any help or advice offered.

RE: [flexcoders] SWFLoader: WHEN can I access SystemManager.application[myContent]?
applicationComplete is the perfect solution for me.
Here's my a code snippet for anyone reading this later:
[Bindable]public var _smAppLoaded:SystemManager;
mx:SWFLoader id=myLoader width=300
complete=onCompleteMyLoader();/
private function onCompleteMyLoader():void {
_smAppLoaded = SystemManager(myLoader.content);
_smAppLoaded.addEventListener(FlexEvent.APPLICATION_COMPLETE,onLoadedApp
licationComplete)
}
private function onLoadedApplicationComplete(oEvent:Event):void
{
Alert.show(_smAppLoaded.application[lblOne].text);
}

You should get an applicationComplete when the app's ready. It is
available earlier than that, but I don't think there's a good event for
it. You could check on enterFrame events.

In a handler on the complete event of a SWFLoader, I set an instance
variable(typed as SystemManager) to myLoader.content.
_smAppLoaded = SystemManager(myLoader.content);
When can I access the .application property?:
Alert.show(_smAppLoaded.application[lblOne].text);
If I try it in the event handler, I get a null reference.
The same if I try it in a callLater()
But if I try it after a setInterval or timer of 5000 ms, I get a valid
reference.
And from a button in the UI, it is valid.
Is there a good way to know if it is ready? Or should I just use a
timer loop?

Re: [flexcoders] Re: When to use Flex???
I'll throw in a quick opinion here and talk about how I like to think about using Flex. Basically if you've got data you need to visualize in any non-boring way then Flex is the way to go. What this means is that if you've got a bunch of data that you want to show somehow other than dropping it into a list or table, this is where Flex dominates. The plug-and-play charting components, the SpringGraph custom component, Josh Tynjala's TreeMap component, these are all data visualization tools. A lot of people are using Flex for displaying tabular data, and that's all good and cool. Flex is useful for easily sorting and analyzing tabular data. But that stuff bores the hell out of me. If you want to take that data and really show it off visually, now you've got the tools. Is one data item more important than the others? Then make it bigger, make it glow, hell, make it jump up and down and get the user's attention. Are there connections between data items? Draw them. Drop your data into a 3D space and let the user REALLY see how the data is connected. Let's say you've got a table of employee records, but what you REALLY want to see is the organizational structure of the department and the performance metrics for each team member. Well, draw it all how it should be drawn. Draw the team composition as an org chart and differentiate the team members by performance. Make the underperforming employees stand out so that at a glance you can see the team structure and problem areas. You don't have to scan over the Performance Metric column of your data grid and try to separate out the problems. You can glance at the screen and just know. Flex allows you to visualize your data in entirely new ways. A grid of tabular data might be useful, but come on, try to imagine the ideal visualization of that data. Really think about the information you're trying to get across. Data is no longer constrained to a HTML table.

I think that if Adobe really wants to bill Apollo as taking the best-of web technology and putting it on the desktop, then they need to seriously consider including a DB that speaks SQL. Personally, I think it would be *fantastic* if Apollo was essentially an embedded webserver, i.e. stripped down Apache (or similar) where I could choose to generate documents using PHP and have a DB backend like MySQL. Basically Zinc + Flex + WAMP, all in one executable. Now *that* would be cool... Troy.

I am still trying to get this print job done. I have got all of the text
working fine but I can't get the logo to appear at the top, I hope
someone can help.
I have this code:
private function printMovies(e:Event):void
{
var mixiLogo:Image = new Image();
mixiLogo.load(@Embed('../assets/mixipix.swf'));
this.addChild(mixiLogo);
}
But I just get a broken image appearing when I fire the function.
With this version of the function:
private function printMovies(e:Event):void
{
this.printJob = new FlexPrintJob();
if(this.printJob.start()){
this.printPanel = new Panel();
var txtApprovedList:Text = new Text();
var mixLogo:Image = new Image();
mixLogo.load(assets/logo.swf);
txtApprovedList.setStyle(color,0x00);
txtApprovedList.width =
printJob.pageWidth;
txtApprovedList.text =
this.txtMovieIDs.text;
this.printPanel.addChild(mixLogo);
this.printPanel.addChild(txtApprovedList);
this.printPanel.setStyle(borderStyle,none);
this.addChild(this.printPanel);
printPanel.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE,this.doPrintCanv
as);
}
}
I get the panel and text appearing but no iamge at all, not even a
broken one.
I hope someone can help.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Pagination using Flex Data Management Service
Yes, when you have one large ArrayCollection the paging from client to server works the way you describe. When you are only storing one page on the client at a time (i.e. in a page sized ArrayCollection), remote object or FDMS work the same if your app is read-only. You'd probably only use FDMS if you want to take advantage of the other features it offers (e.g. automatic change detection on the client, associations with lazy loading, etc.) Jeff From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com on behalf of sid_flex Sent: Fri 3/9/2007 7:07 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Pagination using Flex Data Management Service Jeff, Thanks for your reply. I assume that by paging from client to server you mean that the client gets results fragment by fragment, based on the visible data. For example, if my datagrid shows 8 rows and my paging is set to 5 rows, the datagrid will only get the first two packages of data. In this example 10 rows. When scrolling down by one row at a time, the client retrieves the next package as soon as we reach the 11th row. Correct? Given the current FSD implementation and your suggestion to implement server-side pagination using a fill parameter, the implementation using FDS will probably the same as the implementation you would code for RemoteObjects. Why not use RemoteObjects instaed of FDS?

The fill method currently must return all items from the database. This is something we'd like to address in a future release. To implement a page at a time ArrayCollection, you can simply pass in the page index as a fill parameter and then code it just to return the number of items asked for.

[flexcoders] RE: Init Global Object Best Practice
Please keep the discussion on the flexcoders list. Flex engineers don't
do individual tech support, there are plenty of people on flexcoders
besides me who can help you, and any answers are valuable to other
people on the list learning about Flex.
I can't really tell from your description what you're trying to do. For
example, I'm not sure what you mean by an init Object. What does it
do? And a plain Object doesn't have methods that you can call.
Do you mean that you've written a class for storing info extracted from
the XML and that you want to call a method on it from the resultHandler
after the XML is loaded? In that case, you would do something like
Application
script
var myXMLInfo:MyXMLInfo;
function resultHandler(event)
{
myXMLInfo = new MyXMLInfo();
myXMLInfo.parse(event.result);
}
function doSomething()
{
// use myXMLInfo
}
/script
/Application
In other words, any event handler method can access any instance
variable in the same class, such as myXMLInfo. The info object is then
available to other methods as well.
If I guessed wrong, can you post the code for a very simple example
Application that illustrates what you are trying to do?

It's a good practice to do that with Application.application or there is
another solution...
In my case, I have create an Object for XML loading and want to call a

I don't really Understand how to handle Event between different

If the only choice is with Application.application or if I have missed

[flexcoders] Sub-folders in ContextMenu customitems?

Flex doesn't seem to recognize them. I thought I could do something like
-
mainMenu = new ContextMenu();
mainMenu.hideBuiltInItems();
var item:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem(Item);
menu.customItems.push(item);
var submenu:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu(Menu 1);
var item2:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem(Menu 1 - Item);
submenu.customItems.push(item2);
menu.customItems.push(submenu);
-
but you can't give ContextMenu a constructor. I can't find anything
searching for sub menus on the ContextMenu. I've seen a built-in
sub-menu for Quality with menu-items underneath as Low, Medium, and
High but can't replicate this.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Are other developers hesitant to extend existing classes in Flex?
Actually, preventDefault() does NOT prevent other listeners from executing; this is what stopPropagation() and stopImmediatePropagation() do. preventDefault() simply sets the flag returned by isDefaultPrevented() to be true. However, some event-dispatching code in the Player or the framework is written like this (and you can do the same thing in your apps): dispatchEvent(event); if (!event.isDefaultPrevented()) doSomethingByDefault(); So calling preventDefault() prevents doSomethingByDefault() from being executed. But doSomethingByDefault() is not a listener. - Gordon From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Danko Kozar Sent: Friday, March 09, 2007 1:52 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Are other developers hesitant to extend existing classes in Flex?

Private methods and variables drive me nuts.. For example, I'd like to make a simple DataGrid change: make headers clickable without refreshing the grid (just toggle a sort icon). (I need this behaviour because I'd like to have a paging DataGrid which only propagates the sort column/direction info to a record- feching routine on a server) So, I try to remove a collection.refresh(); line from the sortByColumn() function, but I can't - because it's private. Then, I try to make a new function called sortByColumn2 (that's a copy of the first one, but without refresh stuff) and alter the headerReleaseHandler which calls it, but I can't - cause it's private. And finally, I am trying to add the following code to the constructor (yes, the constructor is public, huh.. :-)) to neutralize the event listener: removeEventListener(DataGridEvent.HEADER_RELEASE, headerReleaseHandler, false, EventPriority.DEFAULT_HANDLER); ... but I can't cause headerReleaseHandler is private and can't be seen from a subclass! And then, I give up.. :-) My conclussion is that Flex framework classes are not extensible enough and I really can't see a reason. Copying the whole DataGrid class and it's renderer, style, etc. classes isn't a solution, we all agree. If not other reason - it's not the OOP way. So, I'm tempted to go to a C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2 \Flex SDK 2\frameworks\source\mx\ folder and make a global search and replace on all files in this folder.

I ended up ditching my code because there were so many private variables used by the existing placeSortArrow() function that I would need to rewrite most of the datagrid.as file.

[flexcoders] VBox, constraint based layout not clipping content
Any particualar reason why a Vbox won't correctly clip content and show scrollbars when the object is using constraint based layout positioning? I'm adding up to 50 child objects to the vbox and want the scrollbars to appear so the user can scroll to see them all. If i set the height, and width everything works as expected, so i've manually tapped into the resize event on my parent canvas and manually set the height and width to get the effect of a constraint based layout. Doesn't seem like i should have to do this. If i used the top,left,right,bottom properties, my VBox just expands its size to include all child objects added... which then forces the scroll bars on it's parent container, not what i want. Maybe i'm doing something wrong...
RE: [flexcoders] gotoAndStop from flex
If you used SWFLoader, the .content is the root of the SWF. If the SWF
was built for Player 9 using CS3, then you can talk to it, otherwise you
can't. Player 8 and older swfs are essentially walled-off. Others have
built wrapper SWFs for Player 8 that will listen for local connections
to/from Flex to then instruct the wrapper to call gotoandStop on the
actual SWF.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: DB access in Apollo
It is a must have IMO. I thought it was already going to be built in. Lets say you have a client that says we don't have database support but you can use files, XML or shared objects. How would that limit your application? If you needed a database you would have to go online to get it defeating the purpose of Apollo's goal of desktop development. There are already apps in development that would use a database: - Java Docs Generator (in dev) - documents your code, stores and updates java docs in db - Project management software (in dev) - keeps track of tasks, projects - Photo management software - accesses the filesystem like Adobe Bridge, search and sort - Music software (already created by an Adobe engineer) - keep track and sort mp3's (itunes, windows media player, winamp, etc use their own built in db) - DVD collection - keeps track of all your dvds or cds - CD demos - pass out demos on cd of your application may need db access Really, think of all the applications on your computer that use a database. Apollo is a desktop application builder. Someone may say you say you can use xml but when you add anymore than a few collections of data, you start to rebuilt a database and try and make xml do what a database is supposed to. It is a sloppy hack. Here's another thing. You come out with Apollo and it doesn't have DB support. You get Apollo adopted after a year at 50% penetration but the big huge apps in development out there need db support. So these can't come out yet. They end up waiting until Apollo 2 is here but also has more then 50% adoption rate. Now its 2 years later. People are frustrated. You could do that or you could push back your release date a month or two now. I would rather wait.

[flexcoders] Re: VBox, constraint based layout not clipping content
Thanks, I do agree that the vbox automatically grows based on it's content is a good thing sometimes, i am making use of that default behavior for sure. However, the constraint based layout is designed so i don't have to manually code changes for the width and height when the parent object is resized... so I would have never expected this behavior nor does it make sense (IMHO). I'll just continue on with what i've done, it's not that complicated, just more work for me :). --Scott --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Tim Hoff [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Unless you explicitly set the height and width of a container, it will automatically measure to include all of it's children; with no scroll bars.

[flexcoders] Re: VBox, constraint based layout not clipping content
Well, just one more point: constraints (similar to padding) have nothing to do with the dimensions of a container. They simply provide a mechanism for positioning. While using top, bottom, left and right can cause resizing, relative to the parent, they are more or less just a tool for placement. -TH --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, scott_flex [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks, I do agree that the vbox automatically grows based on it's content is a good thing sometimes, i am making use of that default behavior for sure.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: How to submit a bug to Adobe ? - 60 inch display is to wide
An obvious solution would be to lower the resolution on the monitors and resize all your flex components accordingly.

Tracking mouseX I can see that the Panel background stop at 4079, also that's where Flash stop tracking the mouseX !!?? The weird thing is that the Tile DOES extend beyond this point as per my screencap. Wonder what the max height is - we are currently looking into attaching 4 30 cinema displays to a Powermac Pro, so it will be a resolution of 5120 by 3200 to display this program. Does anyone have an idea how to overcome this ? Could I extend the Panel - make my own !? Anyone ? BTW - in the Flex documentation it states that the maxwidth of a panel is 1 px ?? http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/langref/mx/core/UIComponent.html#maxWidth Or am I wrong here ?

[flexcoders] Re: VBox, constraint based layout not clipping content
Yes! It took me a few seconds to figure that out after you explained it, my brain is fragile... When setting just one of the constraints, (left or right) or (top or bottom) it makes perfect sense... but setting both (top and bottom) or (left and right), i just figured it manually set the width or height behind the scenes.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: .NET Webservices
Attaching headers to web service requests is pretty easy. I have an
write-up here that you can check out (second half of the blog post):
http://www.cynergysystems.com/blogs/page/andrewtrice?entry=census_mashup
s_using_strikeiron_web
...and source code here:
http://www.cynergysystems.com/blogs/blogs/andrew.trice/strikeiron/srcvie
w/index.html
I instantiated a webservice in mxml, and attached the headers onto it on
the creationComplete event of the application. Once the headers have
been attached to your web service instance, you can make as many calls
as you want without having to reattach any headers per service call.

[flexcoders] Security error accessing url
How to get around this error? I've written small Flex application to retrieve stock info in exchange for company symbol. I've used Eclipse with Flex plugin. Inside the app, I'm calling webservice on quote.yahoo.com website. I can load the html page which references the swf file (by either running it from within Eclipse, or by opening it in both IE and Firefox). This works fine, and I get some stock data back. However, if I try serving the page from one of my local servers, or even copying it (along with other supporting files) to other location on my hard drive, loading the same page results in an Security error accessing url from my Adobe Flash Player 9. I've even tried to use a straight HTTP post instead of a webservice call, but to no avail. Now, I know that in order to access the data on the domain other than the one my app is running on, Adobe Flash Player requires crossdomain.xml file to be on the data server root. Yahoo indeed hosts this file at http://quote.yahoo.com/crossdomain.xml, but it only has a few entries. I simply want to read company stock info from publicly exposed service, but I see no way of adding the domain name to their crossdomain file each time someone wants to read a stock info.
