[flexcoders] Re: E4X Namespace Issues...

2008-01-19 Thread fourctv
Then what you need is:

private var ns:Namespace = new Namespace(http://...;);
default xml namespace ns;

use namespace applies to AS3's namespace, has nothing to do with XML.
see: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/langref/statements.html for a clear 
description 
of: namespace, use namespace  default xml namespace

ps: I've struggled with this for a long time too as there aren't many E4X 
examples involving 
namespaces around

 Hello,
I got it to work.  I had to change the e4x expression a little to get
 it to work.  I needed to qualify the ID with the namespace.  So this
 code works:
 var xml:XML = new XML(inputXML.text);
 var ns:Namespace = xml.namespace();
 trace(xml.namespace());
 var filterdXML:XMLList = new XMLList(xml..ns::folder.(ns::id == 13));
 outputXML.text = filterdXML.toXMLString();
 
 Notice the ns:id == 13.
 
 So, now that I got it working, I'd still like to get it working with the
 following syntax so I dont have to add namespace aliases to my e4x:
 private namespace ns=http://;
 use namespace ns
 Thanks for any suggestions on taking this further.

[flexcoders] Re: Login Problem

2008-01-19 Thread simonjpalmer
if your username is [EMAIL PROTECTED] then the welcome message
will say 

Welcome to the app [EMAIL PROTECTED]

which is somewhat impersonal.  If there are first and last name
properties of the user then it may be friendlier to use those, not to
mention it then serves as a visual cue that the login worked.  

But you are right, you could just bind whatever they type into the
username field to a label saying hello.

 it so treat this a pseudo code if it doesn't work.
  
 mx:Label text=Welcome to the app {userName}/
  
 mx:TextInput id=userName text=Username/
  
 So initially the label will read 'Username' and afterward it will
display
 whatever they type in.
  
 This will happen before login checks.  If you want to change it on

 do they provide their login details via HTML or fields in your flex
 app? The question I am really asking is what controls the login
 transaction with the server?
 
 If it is your flex app (otherwise you should go and post on an HTML
 forum) then what about adding a result responder to your login request
 and sending back the user's name/nickname/whatever. When the response
 returns to the client and the responder runs, extract the user's name
 and update your field which says hello. I do something very similar
 in my app but I label a button with their full name which the user can
 click to set their personal preferences. It also serves to remind
 them who they are logged in as, which works very well for demos.
 
 In principle I don't see why this is any different to any other server
 request, it just happens to be login.

[flexcoders] Re: Border Thickness On ComboBox?

2008-01-19 Thread rueter007
Ok, I was wrong. Setting the borderStyle and borderThickness on the
combo box does not do anything. Instead, I set a custom skin on the
combobox and it works.

border-style: solid;
border-color: #00ff00;
border-thickness: 5;
down-skin: ClassReference('ComboBoxSkin');
over-skin: ClassReference('ComboBoxSkin');
up-skin: ClassReference('ComboBoxSkin');

In the ComboBoxSkin, get the borderThickness and borderColor style
properties and draw the borders for all the states.

Hi Kevin,

I've gotten flare to work in our Flex-based app. I'm still just
experimenting with it, but it works quite well. The main trick is to add
a Visualization instace to a UIComponent, and then add that UIComponent
to your Flex application (you can't add Visualization directly as a
child because it doesn't implement IUIComponent. I believe Jeff plans to
add (some) more Flex support, but looking at svn, he's focusing on the
data package right now.

 Has anyone developed an input tool for that has the functionality of
 Masked Textinput
 (http://weblogs. macromedia. com/flexteam/ archives/ 2006/11/componen

 The problems that I seem to have are mainly the way it behaves when
 using it;

 1) When you select the entire text and start typing, it just appends
 your text to the end.

 2) You cannot insert text into the middle of a field.

 3) If you delete a character out of the middle of a field it leaves a
 space.

 4) If there is a space in the middle of text and you try to select
 the entire field to delete it, the selection disappears when you
 release the mouse.

 I have posted this info on their blog, with no apparent response.

 I am about to embark on creating quite a few data entry forms, and
 would like something that I can use that has masking functionality
 but behaves similar to what most users expect.

 Are there alternatives to Masked TextInput? Where can I find them?

have also tried (http://www.adaptj.com/main/download).

That version has worked fine for me across all the flex 3 betas with no trouble

I think they might have pulled it out of beta and put a release tag on it quite 
recently, but checking the labs page should tell you that.

Best of luck with it (I'm a fan, myself).

Apologies everybody, my answer was confusing.

I was referring to the last beta version of Cairngorm ( 2.2.1 Beta).
It is indeed now released and the current download on the cairngorm labs page.

It seems to be working fine for me in the current (final) flex 3 beta.

[flexcoders] Update ArrayCollection from PopUp TitleWindow

2008-01-19 Thread jmfillman
I've found it amazingly easy to add an item to an ArrayCollection 
from a PopUp window:

var newItem:Object = {date: myDate.id, height: myHeight, subject: 
mySubject.text, notes: myNotes.text};
mainApp.myAC.addItem(newItem);

However, when it comes to updating that item from a PopUp, it appears 
to be amazingly difficult (so difficult that I can't figure it out!).

mainApp.myAC.updateItem() doesn't seem to be possible from the PopUp, 
in fact, I can't even do:

trace (mainApp.myAC.length);

This throw the common Cannot access a property or method of a null 
object reference error.

I haven't tried it yet, but all I've found that looks like a 
possibility, is to create variables in the parent, set those from the 
PopUp, and then run a function to perform updateItem(), for each 
value in the ArrayCollection row OR, delete the row, and add a new 
one. Both create issues with sychronizing front-end display items and 
backend databases.

Please help

mainApp.myAC. updateItem( )  where are you getting the updateItem() method

 I've found it amazingly easy to add an item to an ArrayCollection

 I haven't tried it yet, but all I've found that looks like a 
 possibility, is to create variables in the parent, set those from

Re: [flexcoders] Re: addchild

2008-01-19 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Now I'm really confused. How do I make a ball  using standard Flex 
components ? Everything I've seen uses a sprite.
Where can I find complete Flex examples that use standard Flex 
components   ?


Gordon Smith wrote:

 Built in to the Flash Player are low-level flash.* classes such as 
 Sprite. The Flex framework libraries contains higher-level mx.* 
 classes such as UIComponent, Button, Container, VBox, etc. which add 
 many capabilities beyond those in the Player.
  
 The Flex framework was designed with the assumption that most 
 developers would be delighted with the greater capabilities of 
 the high-level classes and not have much interest in the low-level 
 ones, which are primitive by comparison. In hindsight, this was 
 wrongheaded. Many people like you want to mix the two -- generally 
 because the low-level classes can have greater performance or smaller 
 code size, or because you're bringing over code from the 
 Flash-not-Flex world -- and it isn't as easy as it should be to mix 
 them. I hope we can do better in a future release.
  
 You write AS3 code to use both flash.* and mx.* classes, and, once you 
 understand a few rules, you can use both sets of classes in a Flex 
 application. But it isn't completely trivial, so it's dangerous to 
 just take a simple Sprite-based class and expect it to just work in 
 Flex.
  
 The problem you're running into here is that Flex Containers such as 
 VBox assume that their children are high-level UIComponents rather 
 than just low-level Sprites. One reason is that containers do 
 automatic layout management, which requires code in the children to 
 report how big the child wants to be, etc.
  
 So currently you have to work around this assumption by doing things 
 like creating an intermediate UIComponent to parent the Sprite or 
 adding the Sprite to the Container as a raw child (see the 
 rawChildren property).
  
 If you're new to Flex, I suggest beginning with complete Flex examples 
 that use standard Flex components and postponing trying to use 
 Sprites-based classes. You'll make more progress, gain confidence, and 
 then be in a better position to understand how to take advantage of 
 Sprites later.

 you cannot add sprites directly that way. you can do the following.

 var ballParent: UIComponent = new UIComponent();
 ballParent.addChild(ball);
 vbox.addChild(ballParent);

 and ofcourse, you have to set the width, height etc.

[flexcoders] HorizontalList questions

2008-01-19 Thread Dmitri Girski
Hi,

I've a couple of question about the HorizontalList component:

1. is there any event which is dispatched when component adds
horizontal scrollbar to the display? (horizontalScrollPolicy=auto)

2. How to tell horizontalList to display only full items in the list?
I've got custom item renderers and it displays as much of them as
possible, clipping the last visible item.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Dmitri.

RE: [flexcoders] flex 3 cairngorm

2008-01-19 Thread tim
I've been using 2.2.1 with beta 3.  No problems (apart from my code) so far.

 Apologies everybody, my answer was confusing.

 I was referring to the last beta version of Cairngorm ( 2.2.1 Beta).
 It is indeed now released and the current download on the cairngorm labs
 page.

 It seems to be working fine for me in the current (final) flex 3 beta.

 That version has worked fine for me across all the flex 3 betas with no
 trouble or attention whatsoever.

 I think they might have pulled it out of beta and put a release tag on it
 quite recently, but checking the labs page should tell you that.

 Best of luck with it (I'm a fan, myself).

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Login Problem

2008-01-19 Thread tim
Well the suggestion was just a quick one using binding.  The other way if
you wanted to format the string would be to use the change event on the
text field to trigger a function.

So this (again I haven't got FlexBuilder here, so treat this as pseudocode)

mx:Script
[CDATA] (Does CDATA look like that?  Dunno never typed it ;) )

private function formatName():void
{
var formattedString:String = //whatever code you need to do
the formatting.
}   outputLabel.text = Welcome to the app  +formattedString;

/[CDATA]
/mx:Script

mx:Label id=outputLabel/

mx:TextInput id=inputText change=formatName()/

But depending on what your username is, the binding is a bit less code.
 if your username is [EMAIL PROTECTED] then the welcome message
 will say

 Welcome to the app [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 which is somewhat impersonal.  If there are first and last name
 properties of the user then it may be friendlier to use those, not to
 mention it then serves as a visual cue that the login worked.

 But you are right, you could just bind whatever they type into the
 username field to a label saying hello.

 This way would work, but may not be what you want. P.S. I haven't had a

 it so treat this a pseudo code if it doesn't work.

 mx:Label text=Welcome to the app {userName}/

 mx:TextInput id=userName text=Username/

 So initially the label will read 'Username' and afterward it will
 display
 whatever they type in.

 This will happen before login checks.  If you want to change it on
 response
 then you'll need a function triggered when the data returns from the
 database.  If this is what you want to do, like Tracy says - post
 code pls.

 Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Login Problem



 do they provide their login details via HTML or fields in your flex
 app? The question I am really asking is what controls the login
 transaction with the server?

 If it is your flex app (otherwise you should go and post on an HTML
 forum) then what about adding a result responder to your login request
 and sending back the user's name/nickname/whatever. When the response
 returns to the client and the responder runs, extract the user's name
 and update your field which says hello. I do something very similar
 in my app but I label a button with their full name which the user can
 click to set their personal preferences. It also serves to remind
 them who they are logged in as, which works very well for demos.

 In principle I don't see why this is any different to any other server
 request, it just happens to be login.
