[flexcoders] Syntax question
The conpiler complains with a syntax error 'expecting rightparen before 1.' for my line: var selectedGrowerAddress1:String = event.currentTarget.growerSearchGrid.selectedItem.ADDRESS_LINE#1; my client's database field name has a # in it which I have to accept.

[flexcoders] Re: Open SWF from another SWF.
Ok, i have tryed this with fscommand(exec, test.exe); and it works, all SWF files must be projectors. Now i have 2 problems, the projector test.exe witch is an application runs fine when run directly, but when i execute it from my first projector (runner.exe) the second test.exe wont read any XML files with HTTPRequest method, i get an error that it cant find the file. I examined the path to the XML file and it changes if called from another projector from : URL: file:///G|/Directory/fscommand/myXML.xml]. to : URL:file:3F/G|/Directory/fscommand/myXML.xml]. Any way to fix that? And another Q, when creating projectors, now i can create them with file-Create Projector. Is there a way to create them from command line because all my apps are in full screen and i have blocked the ESC button. Btw, if anyone is interested i blocked ESC button with : fscommand(trapallkeys,True);. I hope someone can help. thx. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, helix206 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a problem.

[flexcoders] Flex2/AS3 Shopping Cart API
I'm looking to create mini E-comm sites preferably done in Flex2/AS3, so as to implement the kind of interface seen in Adobe's sample store application (http://examples.adobe.com/flex2/inproduct/sdk/flexstore/flexstore.html).I'm I'd also like to make use of PHP on the backend, as that's how our servers are setup, I wonder if this would mean use of AMFPHP. I guess a really good yet simple php based shopping cart with a large community around it would be a perfect starting point, then it would be a matter of developing the Flex based frontend, and then creating the Methods for the PHP Cart and Flex Interface to communicate. Of course I could seriously be underestimating this, though if solutions already exist at a reasonable price, I'd love to know about them. Below are some of the experiences I've had so far: I started by exploring Drupal/Ubercart/AMFPHP as a backend but the functionality out of the box is quite basic, I was able to load data from the Drupal/UberCart Catalog and display as I wanted in a simple Flex interface, but as far creating an order and having it processed by the backend, those methods didn't exist, and I dont know enough PHP to create them. I've heard of both 'Allurent Buy' from http://www.allurent.com/page.php?id=46 and 'DotShop Admin/MySQL' from http://www.dotography.com/product.php The first is far too expensive for my purposes, and the second doesn't have the interface features I'd like, and seems like closed source option so there probably wouldnt be a chance to modify.

The listData property does not comply to its description, since it

inconsistency.
An amazingly stupid example, since data and listData are not meant to

Subject: [flexcoders] ItemRenderer : listData and dataChange event
hello there,
Using the advices found on Alex Harui's blog, I wrote a simple
ItemRenderer. I stumble upon a weird (but documented) flex behavior,
the 'listData' property is describted as [Bindable(dataChange)] but
the property setter does not dispatch a dataChange event.
I did check the IDropInListItemRenderer's documentation, I understand
that it's the common way item renderers work, but it's bugging me.
So there are my questions :
What would be the consequences if the dataChange event was dispatched
by both 'data' and 'listData' properties setters ? Would it introduce
unexpected behaviors ? or have a noticeable cost ?
Why on hell the 'listData' property was made public if it imply that
it can't comply to its description (does not dispatch the event) ?
Could the item renderer mechanic change someday ?

Re: [flexcoders] JPGEncoder with progress support?
This is doable, but requires a little more work than you probably think. To
do this you would modify JPEGEncoder, if you're using Moxie take a look at
the JPEGEncoder class around line 121. You'll see this double for loop:
for (var ypos:int = 0; ypos height; ypos += 8)
{
for (var xpos:int = 0; xpos width; xpos += 8)
{
RGB2YUV(source, xpos, ypos, width, height);
DCY = processDU(YDU, fdtbl_Y, DCY, YDC_HT, YAC_HT);
DCU = processDU(UDU, fdtbl_UV, DCU, UVDC_HT, UVAC_HT);
DCV = processDU(VDU, fdtbl_UV, DCV, UVDC_HT, UVAC_HT);
}
}
As far as I can tell that's where the bulk of the processing happens. What
you're going to want to do is add progress events dispatching in there. But
simply dispatching progress events isn't going to be enough. That would
effectively give you notifications for progress of encoding, but since flash
player is single threaded, your display won't ever have time to update while
those for loops are running.
So you'll need to split the processing up into smaller tasks and insert idle
times between them. You'll want to use the Timer class to make your code
wait for a given period (I've found that even just a few milliseconds is
enough for the display to update).
I would split up the algorithm to process one row at a time (so basically
that inner for loop gets turned into its own function). Then have the
function that processes a row start a timer once it's completed, and once
that timer completes, then run the function for the next row and so on until
you finish. That was you can dispatch a progress event for each row and the
display will have time to update.
Hope some of that makes sense.

@font-face {

fontFamily: Myriad;
fontWeight: bold;
fontStyle: italic;
unicodeRange:
U+0021-U+007E; /* Normal Chars */

You can change the unicodeRange to include whichever characters you need in
your application (see HYPERLINK
http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-CSS2-19980512/fonts.html#descdef-unicode-rang
ewww.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-CSS2-19980512/fonts.html#descdef-unicode-range).
Remember, if you don't need all the characters, then only include the one's
you actually need. This will make the swf file smaller.
Then, you can use these fonts in styles for different components. Like:
DateChooser {
fontFamily: Myriad; /* here's the font you declared in
the @font-face statements */
fontSize: 12;
fontWeight: normal; /* this is now MyriadWebPro */
headerColors: #84affe, #ff;
fillColors: #0057fe, #ff, #209820, #ff;
todayColor: #0057fe;
rollOverColor: #84affe;
selectionColor: #6cbb6c;
borderColor: #66;
backgroundColor: #ff;
themeColor: #209820;
dropShadowEnabled: true;
shadowDirection: right;
shadowDistance: 1;
headerStyleName: mydateChooserHeaderStyle;
weekDayStyleName: mydateChooserWeekDayStyle;
}
.mydateChooserHeaderStyle {
fontWeight: bold; /* this becomes MyriadWebPro-Bold */
fontStyle: normal;
textDecoration: none;
}
.mydateChooserWeekDayStyle {
color: #0b333c;
}
You get the general idea. I use this all the time, and I've never had any
trouble with blurry fonts.
Hope this helps,

Re: [flexcoders] JPGEncoder with progress support?
Sure does Doug! Thanks for the tips.
I'm actually re-writing the corelib version now to make it more
efficient for larger images. Right now encoding a 2k image takes much
longer than I'm happy with. :)
I was doing a bit more research and will be breaking it up into
'chunks' with progress events, hopefully.
If I get a good result I'll post back the code to the corelib project.

This is doable, but requires a little more work than you probably
think. To do this you would modify JPEGEncoder, if you're using
Moxie take a look at the JPEGEncoder class around line 121. You'll
see this double for loop:
for (var ypos:int = 0; ypos height; ypos += 8)
{
for (var xpos:int = 0; xpos width; xpos += 8)
{
RGB2YUV(source, xpos, ypos, width, height);
DCY = processDU(YDU, fdtbl_Y, DCY, YDC_HT, YAC_HT);
DCU = processDU(UDU, fdtbl_UV, DCU, UVDC_HT, UVAC_HT);
DCV = processDU(VDU, fdtbl_UV, DCV, UVDC_HT, UVAC_HT);
}
}
As far as I can tell that's where the bulk of the processing
happens. What you're going to want to do is add progress events
dispatching in there. But simply dispatching progress events isn't
going to be enough. That would effectively give you notifications
for progress of encoding, but since flash player is single
threaded, your display won't ever have time to update while those
for loops are running.
So you'll need to split the processing up into smaller tasks and
insert idle times between them. You'll want to use the Timer class
to make your code wait for a given period (I've found that even
just a few milliseconds is enough for the display to update).
I would split up the algorithm to process one row at a time (so
basically that inner for loop gets turned into its own function).
Then have the function that processes a row start a timer once it's
completed, and once that timer completes, then run the function for
the next row and so on until you finish. That was you can dispatch
a progress event for each row and the display will have time to
update.
Hope some of that makes sense.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to anti-alias fonts without embedding?
Thanks for any help Alex... I'm actually having issues on the initial draw of the bitmap - so visual problems. While the user rotates and scales the field, everything is fine and dandy. BUT, when the class for handling the bitmap and the text field itself is first instantiated, the field is not drawn accurately. The field draws out at the proper scale, but it doesn't respect the new 'width' that the field should have once type is added to it. For example, the initial size of the created field is some width X height. I'm using autosize on the field itself, so when the text is changed, the new width and height are used to draw the result onto the screen (new bitmap size to match). This works fine during live editing, such as changing the text of the field. When the class first loads though, I get the right size and color font and Bitmap that it should be, but all that is drawn is up to the height/width of the field that it was when it was first created. I looked to see if there was an event for autosize ... to no avail. I also tried to use resize events, render events, etc. Nothing has solved the problem. My initial guess is that it might have to do with the styles that get set on the field and some type of delay.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to anti-alias fonts without embedding?
I think I actually fixed it
I was doing this in my constructor for the custom field:
if (m != null)
{
transform.matrix = m;
setTransform(m);
}
else ...
when I should've been doing this:
if (m != identityMatrix)
{
transform.matrix = m;
setTransform(m);
}
else ...
I may or may not pass in a matrix to the class, but the 'optional'
matrix has to evaluate to something, or else it doesn't compile. So,
the m matrix is never null, and I was never updating the
transformations on my class when a custom matrix was loaded up.
Testing local it seems to work when I load up a field that's rotated
some arbitrary angle. I have to test online though, because I suspect
there may be an underlying issue with the style loading.
Hope it works...

TextField definitely has quirks. If you look in TextArea, you'll see some callLaters used to deal with it. And I think we don't use autosize, we trust textWidth/Height and dictate size.

[flexcoders] Simulating mouse click on itemRenderer in dataGrid
I need to simulate that a textInput itemdenderer in a dataGrid has just been click in/on with the mouse. My efforts with manually dispatching an event to the itemRenderer have failed, as I do not know how to reference it. Can anyone help please? I can reference the grid with: var mev:MouseEvent = new MouseEvent(click,false,false); mydataGrid.dispatchEvent(mev); but the itemRenderer within a dataGridColumn?
Re: [flexcoders] pixel font [old] issue
Search archives. Another embedding fonts thread was discussed up
about a week ago (Embed Flash Font was the subject).
Text of my post is below, which works for all pixel fonts I've tested
so far (provided you use the proper font size in the Flex CSS document).
First step is to put a dynamic text field on the stage in Flash, set
your font for the field and choose the character(s) you wish to
embed. Make sure the text field is set to use Bitmap Text (whatever
the drop down is). You do not have control over the characters after
this step, so all your embedding is done in Flash (ie, no unicode
control in Flex CSS).
The use of font-weight: normal and fontAntiAliasType: normal are
necessary, from what I recall. You have no control over this in Flex
for pixel fonts.
The following steps are:
--
1. Don't name the embedded font in the Flash 8 swf file the same as
the system font.
2. Open the Flash 8 SWF back up into Flash 8 IDE (or CS3 IDE). When
you do that, do a list variables - Debug List Variables. Make note
of the 'exported' font name that Flash used for the font. That name
is what you'll use in Flex.
For example, on using a pixel font (Kroeger 05_56), I exported the
Flash 8 SWF file, the embedded symbol name ended up as kroeger
05_56_8pt_st. And in Flex, I used this in the CSS as follows:
@font-face {
src: url(../fonts/Kroeger.swf) ;
fontFamily: kroeger 05_56_8pt_st;
font-weight: normal;
}
And defining the usage of that font, recognizing that in this case
it's a pixel font and doesn't use the advanced anti aliasing
.assetInfoTitle
{
color:#66;
fontFamily: kroeger 05_56_8pt_st;
font-weight: normal;
fontSize: 8;
fontAntiAliasType: normal;
}
Hopefully that will get you on your way.
best,
Jon

I tried the following method without any success : flash.system.Security.loadPolicyFile (http://samedomainasmyws:sameportas http://samedomainasmyws:sameportas myws/onefolder/onsubfolder/crossdomain.xml http://samedomainasmyws:sameportasmyws/onefolder/onsubfolder/crossdo http://samedomainasmyws:sameportasmyws/onefolder/onsubfolder/crossdo mai n.xml ); Do I miss something ? Thx for your help. Claude Hussenet
[flexcoders] Datagrid Sorting by Row
I am not even sure if this is possible, but here it comes anyways. I have two arrays that I am using to create a the dataprovider for a datagrid. The first grid tranMonth holds the data for the dynamic columns that I am creating. It holds the column header, and data field. The second grid holds all the data that is populating the datagrid. It looks something like this transData(sort:2007, janTotal:0, febTotal:5, etc). The over all sort that I am trying to do is allow the user to sort by the year they select. So that the month(column) with the most transactions now becomes the first column in the grid. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
