[flexcoders] repeater and swapChildAt
Ok - if I've got 4 buttons being created in a repeater -- since children of a component are referenced by that repeater id (ie mx:Repeater id=rep dataProvider={CircleData.getInstance().currentCircleArray} mx:Button id=button / /mx:Repeater It'd be button[x] -- correct? ie the array of buttons. Well if wanted to swap two buttons - would that kill their positioning after that?
[flexcoders] Connection problem in Flex messaging
Hi, We have used Flex messaging in an Flex/Java based application. The messaging works fine in our production/QA server. But when we deployed the application to the production server, which can be accessed by a public IP, the messaging feature failed. Nevertheless, if we connect the production server using a VPN connection and use an internal IP to run the application, the messaging is working but does not work when the same application is accessed using the public IP. We have used rtmp channel for messaging and we have opened the port used in both the public IP as well as the internal IP. channel-definition id=my-rtmp class=mx.messaging.channels.RTMPChannel endpoint uri=rtmp://{server.name}:2037 class=flex.messaging.endpoints.RTMPEndpoint/ properties idle-timeout-minutes20/idle-timeout-minutes /properties /channel-definition Still we have the same problem. We are unable to find the reason for the dubious behavior. Could anyone please help us to resolve this problem. What possibly could be going wrong? Thanks and Regards, Paromita
[flexcoders] Flex web services client-BlazeDS-NetSuite, session cookies in header
Has anyone built a flex client to NetSuite? I am searching for any notable issues. This combination seems like a natural fit for many companies, but, surprisingly, there is a dearth of information on the Internet. Maybe there are reasons that aren't immediately apparent? From reading through the docs, it seems that managing the session cookies sent with the http headers in the login response is an issue, since they need to be returned on each subsequent request. Any others? Any comments would be appreciated.

[flexcoders] Flex Newbie - Web Services Dilema

I tried generating the proxy classes from Data Manage WSDL and I was able to generate the *.as files which are the proxy classes. Is there samples codes in MXML that utilizes the proxy classes?

[flexcoders] How the information pass from *List controls to their item renderers?
Here by saying *List and *ListData I mean the three standard ListBase subclasses and their corresponding BaseListData subclasses, i.e., List - ListData, DataGrid - DataGridListData, Tree - TreeListData. As I know, drop-in Item renderers in *List controls get the necessary information from their corresponding *ListData, so I guess there is some standard path this information passes from *List controls to their item renderers via the intermediate *ListData. From the doc I find such correspondence: List.labelField - ListData.labelField DataGridColumn.dataField - DataGridListData.dataField However I can not find such a correspondence between Tree and TreeListData along the lines. There is no labelField property in TreeListData and TreeListData is not a subclass of ListData as I guess(Tree is a subclass of List so it inherits the labelField property). Due to the lack of property correspondence between Tree and TreeListData, I can't see what this path is exactly.
[flexcoders] Flex Charts/DataProvider sum
hi Eveyone, I've got a dataprovider that I apply on a pie charts, it is working but is there any way that I can automaticaly get a sum of the field I display? For example: {client:client1, project:project1, time:2} {client:client1, project:project1, time:2} {client:client1, project:project2, time:2} {client:client2, project:project4, time:2} {client:client2, project:project4, time:2} {client:client2, project:project5, time:2} I always display the field time, the pie is showing me 6 parts, which is probably normal. Here is the thing, is there any way I could get the sum by client or project without create actionscript code? to get for example, filtered by client: {client:client1, time:6} {client:client2, time:6} or filtered by project: {project:project1, time:4} {project:project4, time:4} Any sumFilter that could take the filtered field and the field to sum? or other property that could me? The real dataprovider is a lot bigger than that, It would make me able filter all this data without create an actionscript for every kind of filter I want. Any hints? thanks Romuald

[flexcoders] Typing into a Canvas paint program style and space key events
Hi All: I'm trying to do a simple drawing program, something like http://artpad.art.com/artpad/painter/, in which I primarily want to be able to draw freehand lines and be able to add text. I want to emulate the general text tool functionality where I click the text tool icon, click on the canvas and start typing. I had tried the approach of addEventListener() for a key up event which which I had a hard time of of getting focus (tried both the application and the canvas), but when I did get focus, I discovered that that the space button activates a button click of the last selected button. A google search shows someone else discovered this accessibility feature. Is there a different route than the addEventListener() for key up events that I should be taking to get this sort of behavior? Thanks Forrest

I have not yet been able to catch the Focus Event on this ItemRenderer my code is as follows: mx:VBox xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; mouseFocusEnabled=true focusEnabled=true mouseEnabled=true mouseFocusChange=onMouseFocusChange(event) The onMouseFocusChangeEvent is never fired. I also tried adding an eventListener on creationComplete method with not success. How can I do this? Any help much appreciated. Thanks, Greg
Re: [flexcoders] Flex builder compiler line
the compiler comes with the SDK, you would not send that argument to the compiler, that's what tells FB what compiler to use. pretty sure anyways.

[flexcoders] 'Pointer' in actionscript?
Hi. I have a custom component which uses data from my modellocator. Depending on the way this component is called depends where abouts this data comes from, ie: private var _itemLocation:Object; [Bindable] protected function get itemLocation():Object { if(isAssets) _itemLocation = model.factfind.assets; else _itemLocation = model.factfind.liabilities; return _itemLocation; } protected function set itemLocation(value:Object):void { _itemLocation = value; } model.factfind.assets and model.factfind.liabilities are both ArrayCollections. then, later on, I have mx:Label text={itemLocation.selectedAssets.getItemAt(0).name}/ Now, this doesn't update as I'd expect when the first item in itemLocation.selectedAssets changes (whatever itemLocation refers to) If I change it to mx:Label text={model.factfind.assets.selectedAssets.getItemAt(0).name}/ it works perfectly. So it seems that when I do the set/get on itemLocation, it copies the value of model.factfind.assets/liabilities rather than acting as a pointer to that. How do I get it to work like a pointer so when model.factfind.assets changes, so does itemLocation, in order that I can use the same component for both assets and liabilities? Thanks
RE: [flexcoders] Connection problem in Flex messaging
Hi, RTMP is run on a non-standard (meaning, non-HTTP) port so client-side firewalls/proxies/etc. may block traffic out on that port. Accessing your server over VPN versus over the public internet must be using different port-specific rules. You'll generally want to define your ChannelSet (or the list of channels in your server config), to start with RTMP as the preferred option but then fallback to one of the AMF HTTP options (streaming, long-polling, simple polling). These fallback channels/endpoints should be configured to use port 80 if insecure or 443 is secure to guarantee that their traffic makes it through the network without being blocked due to port number.

If I try to set scale9grid, http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/langref/flash/display/DisplayObject.html#scale9Grid, I get errors that seem to indicate that I am passing invalid parameters. I really need a way to load an image dynamically and have slice nine work for that image. Is this possible without writing my own custom code? Thanks!
RE: [flexcoders] [BlazdeDS] setting concurrency property through actionAcript
Hi Levancho, This option is very old, dating back to the earliest versions of RemoteObject client code and it may not do what you're expecting it to do. The documentation here isn't very clear (although it's not a simple topic so maybe that's why). When you set this to last, you're telling your RemoteObject instance to ignore results/faults that return to the player for any earlier calls you've issued before the currently final call, but this doesn't have any effect at the network level. What this means is that if you make multiple calls quickly like so: ro.foo(); ro.bar(); Both calls will be sent to the server but the result/fault for foo() will return to the player and the RemoteObject will just discard it rather than dispatching a result or fault event to your handler code. The result/fault for the second call to bar() (the last call you've made) will be dispatched. So this option doesn't cancel out the call at the network level. That's not even possible. Once a request is put on the network, there's no way to cancel it apart from waiting for its result/fault to dispatch in the player, and if the call succeeded, meaning you get a result rather than a fault, you'll need to make an explicit compensating/rollback call to undo or cancel what you've just done. So you'd have: ... fooToken = ro.foo(); ... oh no, I want to cancel or undo foo.. set a custom flag on my token to control how I handle the eventual result/fault ... fooToken[undo] = true; ... within my result handler, check for this custom flag I added to the AsyncToken for my call... if (token[undo]) ro.undoFoo(); // Make a call to rollback whatever foo() did, and don't bother processing the result. else processResult(result); ... otherwise, in my fault handler... if (!token[undo]) processFault(fault); * Just to be clear, that's psuedocode to just illustrate the idea. If you're happy with the player just not dispatching the results/faults it's receiving for earlier calls to your handler code (they're still all being processed at the server), feel free to log an enhancement to get the 'concurrency' property supported on non-MXML RemoteObject. I'm not sure why it was only implemented for the MXML version.

Solution: Step 1: Create a swf file for each Font you want, with a text sample of the Font on stage and whatever characters embedded. Step 2: Add the fonts as a font-face in a .css StyleSheet, which can be loaded dynamically in the Flex application. Step 3: Create a style name containing all the fonts needed , for example: .subPageFontStyles { font-family: Bello Pro; font-size: 28px; color: #7E1A7B; font-family: Arial Rounded MT Bold; font-size: 15px; color: #302F00; } Step 4: In the TextArea Flex component, set styleName to the font style name in the StyleSheet, for example subPageFontStyles. Step 5: In the HTML Text File, for each text block set the font face tag to font-family specified in the style name from the .css Stylesheet, for example Bello Pro. Notes: -You have the option to change font size and color tags in the HTML Text. -Make sure to use the HTML Text property of the Text Area Flex component to set the HTML Text. -Make sure to recompile the .css Stylesheet file into a .swf file if it is being loaded dynamically.

I'm having trouble following this because I don't understand why your getter for itemLocation doesn't return what the setter set.

So it seems that when I do the set/get on itemLocation, it copies the value of model.factfind.assets/liabilities rather than acting as a pointer to that. How do I get it to work like a pointer so when model.factfind.assets changes, so does itemLocation, in order that I can use the same component for both assets and liabilities? Thanks

As I know, drop-in Item renderers in *List controls get the necessary information from their corresponding *ListData, so I guess there is some standard path this information passes from *List controls to their item renderers via the intermediate *ListData. From the doc I find such correspondence: List..labelField - ListData.labelField DataGridColumn. dataField - DataGridListData. dataField However I can not find such a correspondence between Tree and TreeListData along the lines. There is no labelField property in TreeListData and TreeListData is not a subclass of ListData as I guess(Tree is a subclass of List so it inherits the labelField property). Due to the lack of property correspondence between Tree and TreeListData, I can't see what this path is exactly.
RE: [flexcoders] Connection problem in Flex messaging
Right, Anatole makes a good point. Using this technique you can expose your RTMP endpoint on port 80 alongside your HTTP endpoint also on port 80, on the same server: www.mycompany.com:80 - for HTTP traffic rtmp.mycompany.com:80 - for RTMP traffic You can achieve this by using the bind-address and bind-port config settings for your RTMP endpoint. You could either use two NICs (hence two IPs) on the same physical machine, and use one for your RTMP endpoint and the other for your HTTP endpoint. Or, if you have a load balancer that supports virtual IPs, you could define these client-facing IPs there, and then route the RTMP and HTTP traffic for them back to the proper endpoints on your LCDS server. Running RTMP over the standard HTTP port 80 is an end-run around the port being blocked by something along the network path between the client and server, but stateful HTTP proxies that do packet inspection will still drop RTMP packets (because they don't look like HTTP). So with this in place, a higher percentage of blocked clients will be able to successfully connect via RTMP, but you'll still want an AMF channel as a fallback for any that are still blocked.

[flexcoders] Keeping the MXML clean
I have a couple of chart series with dataFunctions that get updated dynamically. Some of these are shared between more than one chart. I wish to avoid large Script blocks with duplicate code. Here are some possibilities I've considered 1) A SeriesHelper class with a reference to the series and any other objects needed. Has some creation order issues, as the chart definition can't refer to helper.dataFunction1 if I only create the helper at creationComplete time. I suppose I could use binding or reverse the order and set the series reference at creationComplete time. 2) Script tag that includes an .as file. 3) Duplicate one line functions in the MXML file, that called shared static utility functions Thoughts?

[flexcoders] Advanced custom components in Flex Builder 3
Hi all. I'm trying to determine if any of the following are possible in design mode in Flex Builder 3: * have new custom components appear in a category other than Custom * if there are multiple custom components with the same name but appear in different packages, cause only one package's version to be displayed * supplant any or all of the built-in components with replacements of my choosing Has anyone done this? Is it even possible? I have a very large library of custom components, and having them all fall into the Custom category makes it darn near impossible for a user to find what they want. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is an area where the docs (that I can find anyway) are not very detailed.

[flexcoders] Re: Move and Resize effect on panel
Hi Steve, Would usually use state transitions for this, with a shorter duration, but the code below works the same way. Effects are smoothest when you set the from and to values. Not as smooth if you are applying an effect on a component that is percentage size based. For these, change something else that has a fixed size, and let the framework do the work for you.

[flexcoders] Can't remove small non-transparent rectangle in full screen mode
Hi all, I'm trying to mimic Expose-style functionality in an AIR app I'm developing -- when the user presses a shortcut key, all of the open tabs in the application should become visible in a full-screen, translucent overlay window. (E.g. like: http://www.rogergordon.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/expose.png) After creating a window, I set the following properties: layout = absolute; setStyle(backgroundAlpha, 0.5); width = Screen.mainScreen.bounds.width; height = Screen.mainScreen.bounds.height; showGripper = false; showStatusBar = false; showTitleBar = false; systemChrome = NativeWindowSystemChrome.NONE; transparent = true; When I finally set stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE; things work as expected, except there is a small (about 10x10 pixels) non-transparent background-colored square right in the middle of the screen/window. I can't figure out a way to remove it (at this point, no children have been added to the window yet). Thanks for any ideas or suggestions! Eugene
[flexcoders] Splitting FlexCoders in smaller, focused groups
Dear All, Flexcoders has huge problem. In the last 15 month it is very much stagnant in terms of message count and participation. It is not growing and dropping members as fast as it gets them. I believe this group has overgrown the optimal size about a year ago and needs to be divided in more focused smaller groups. My mail box get 100+ messages a day on all kinds of topic - unless I can spend 30+ minutes that day to sort them out it goes directly into garbage can. Most people in the company unsubscribed from it 18 month ago. Most of veteran developers I know either unsubscribed or stopped looking in this mess greatly diminishing the quality of the responses. As a result group mostly host new developers and looses most of experienced ones after very short period of time. Further delay of breaking this group hinders usefulness of the group for all of us as now we have significant amount of users that are being forced out.

Re: [flexcoders] Splitting FlexCoders in smaller, focused groups
Josh, It is definitely up to flexcoders as a group to make these decision - not me for sure. I did suggest separate group on best practices and I do not think you can separate UI best practices in Front-end tool - but I might assume much. Enterprise in Flex is reasonably well defined - anything that is based on commercial LCDS + typical tasks for enterprises - portals integration, large team management, scalability, and whatever else. Basically people usually know if they are working in enterprise and would use their judgement. The same goes for 101 - people often know if they are within the first 6 month. 101 presumes that there is FAQ thread somewhere, and hopefully WiKi with repeated questions. It also gives Adobe better idea what new developers have problem with and they can make product more intuitive for new developers. As far as scaring people - my post clearly states that at this point new developers scare experienced ones instead of letting people work together. With smaller groups it is possible to get moderators. Take a look at weborb, every message you send gets to developers blackberry, but quite a few are answered by experienced developers that are in that group for quite some time. With smaller groups and defined target audience you can provide better targeted answers that would suite that community better. As far as better inbox management - I would love to hear about something that works - but I have not seen anything that would do 10 way split for me.

Re: [flexcoders] Splitting FlexCoders in smaller, focused groups
This issue gets brought up periodically (and once by me), and at those times the mods have convinced me that we shouldn't (or at minimum had an argument against that was as good as the argument for). However, at this point in time, I think you have a point. In the past, I've answered more questions than I do now. Some of that is because I have been busy at work, and some of that is because a variety of reasons that are probably related to the group size. But I think splitting up the groups by user experience or complexity is a bad idea. For every new user at whom I just want to scream Read the docs! there are many who simply need a push in the right direction or have found a bug/idiosyncrasy in flex that they have no hope of figuring out unless they have someone with a little more experience telling them that they aren't going crazy. And we want those novices on the same list as the veterans. If a significant portion of the knowledgeable user base flees from the newbees, those new adopters won't have as good a chance of having their answers solved and the growth and quality of the community will be harmed. (I'm not saying it will take a nose dive or anything, but it won't be as good as it could be.) I think I could make a similar arguement for people who might be making the jump between intermediate to veteran, or business class, to enterprise class. (I know right now I'm on the border between business and enterprise class.) I agree that we should have some different lists differentiated on content. Key word there being 'some.' The more we divide, the more our knowledge is divided. Let's not go overboard. But I think with the release of BlazeDS, remoting now has enough traffic to get it's own group and we could define a clear set of content that would be in that group. A third group (or actually a forth group after flexcoders, flexcomponents, and remoting) might be useful, but I wouldn't endorse the idea unless someone else can suggest a good idea of what would go in that space that would be clearly differentiated by content, and allow users of all skill levels to join. - Daniel Freiman On Mon, Jun 16, 2008 at 9:10 PM, Anatole Tartakovsky [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear All, Flexcoders has huge problem.

When I get lost I start removing code until i can get a working build.

[flexcoders] Re: Splitting FlexCoders in smaller, focused groups
Hi Anotole, This topic has been brought up several times since this list was established. At times, it does seem that the post topics are very diverse. However, with the clear exception of flexcomponents, the suggestion to split the list into sub groups has been consistantly avoided; to reduce the number of feeds that the primary responders to the list have to monitor. It would be near impossible for the Adobe experts, and others on this list, to regulary respond to the wide variety of posts that are made if they had to watch 12 different lists. Agreed, like RSS feeds, the inbox gets full rather quickly. Just using the Yahoo interface, to scan messages, works great and doesn't take up much time at all though. And yes, there are frequent questions by people that are new to flex. I look at helping people that are just starting as paying it forward. The mix on this list is diverse, but people can always go to the Adobe Flex forums; if they want more specialized focus. I don't want to sound like I'm not agreeing with your proposal; it has merit. However, it would probably splinter the group too much. If anything, I think the quality and focus would be improved if people tried to limit the posts/responses to Flex related issues. That would probably reduce the inbox clutter by 1/3. :-) -TH --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Anatole Tartakovsky [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear All, Flexcoders has huge problem.

[flexcoders] Automating the compiling of actionscript projects in Flex Buider 3
I am currently creating some actionscript projects in flex builder 3. The idea is to create some basic templates (10 or so different look and feel) with picture and text holders but no text or pictures. Then pass to the selected actionscript project template the picture and text reference to embed via an xml file and publish the swf. I would like to automate that process can anyone point me in the right direction ? I would like to be able to pass commands to flex builder to open a specific actionscript project, pass it the ref to a xml file and compile to get my swf... Any help would be appreciated Regards Brett
