[flexcoders] Mouse Clicks' Queue when Button is Disabled
Hi, I was wondering about the Disable property for UI Components. In the docs it says that when the component is disabled it ignores all interaction whatsoever - in particular - user interaction. In my case, the button is disabled for a few seconds right after it was clicked by the user (I disable it till the httprequest is returned and then enable it). What happens is that if the user clicks the button while it's disabled - nothing happens. But when the button turns enabled - it acts as if it just got the click event. It seems like the mouse click event went into this queue and the button listened to it right after to turned enable? Am I correct? If so - how can I prevent this problem? If I'm wrong, what's the reason for this? And again, how can I sort this so the user can't send mouse clicks to the button when it's disabled?? Many thanks :) Gilad
[flexcoders] SeriesInterpolate - showDataEffect - Line Chart
Hi, This is a flex2-flex3 migration issue. I'm using the SeriesInterpolate as an effect when Line Chart is updated with new data. In flex 2 these are the parameters I gave: protected var _interpolateEff:SeriesInterpolate = new SeriesInterpolate(); _interpolateEff.duration = 1000; _interpolateEff.minimumElementDuration = 200; _interpolateEff.elementOffset = 10; _interpolateEff.hideFocusRing = true; This was enough to apply to the entire chart. In flex 3 - it seems that the dots ( at the end of each line in the chart) are not affected by the this and only take their new position after the effect is done. Is there a fix to it ? is thee a property or a mothoed which I can specify that the dots also should apply the effect ? Thanks, Gilad
[flexcoders] Statically adding one more item to the dynamically driven combobox dataprovider.
Hi All, In my project i have a combobox in which i need to add dynamic values from the xml file and in addition i need to add one static value All to the combobox dataprovider. For combobox dataprovider iam directly giving xml values like this: usecases1.dataProvider=cbolXML.Market[0].child(UseCase).attributes(); usecases1 is nothing but combobox and cboxXML is an xml file from which iam reading the data's for the combobox. SO, here how can i add one more static value All to the above data coming from the xml file. i dont find any addItem or push methods for combobox dataprovider. If i am using arraycollection or array its not giving the correct data but its appending ALL to the data from the xml. Anyone can help me out of this. Thanks in Advance, Poornima

then i created an array collection where each item is an istance of

then i have a shared object manager that looks like this:

import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
public class SharedObjectApplicationManager {

}
private function adda(array:ArrayCollection):void {
mySO.data.arrayc = new ArrayCollection();
mySO.data.arrayc = array;
mySO.flush();
}
}
}
so when i try to get arraycollection with getf method i get an
arraycollection of generic objects…not with windowinfo objects..in
this manner i can't get value properties of value object class.
so i would use registerClassAlias(Info, WindowInfo) where WindowInfo
is the VO..but where?
the architecture of my app is:
-main application (verify the shared object, if full then call a
public function of canvas to create windows with specific parameters
saved in windowinfo class)
–canvas (contains one or more windows)
any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Hi all, I am building a photo library using tileList and the mx:Image. I do notice that the memory does grow the more images I load. The mx:Image is bound to my modelLocator, so I am not actually unloading the image per say, I am just changing the source with databinding. I did assume however that it would unload the image before loading the next...That said, I've also tested to unload the image manually. I've read various conflicting posts on swfLoader and how it doesn't actually unload loaded swf's or images. I've also read that in player 10+ it actually unloads swf's properly...Can someone please tell me what simply is the truth? And if there is an issue with the swfLoader, than what would be a good workaround? Thanks in advance, I appreciate it.

The Tab is a class that Extends from FlexLib MDICanvas. Tabs are put into a FlexLib SuperTab. I've gotten everything to work in production, so I feel the issue doesn't have anything to do with use of FlexLib. Either I've added something to my code base, or changed a setting because with the exception of one subtab, every single datagrid on every single tabbed page (8 in all) only shows the header row for each datagrid. Has anyone ever seen this before? Thanks, j
[flexcoders] How to make a Runtime Shared Library (RSL)?
Hi, I Created an application in Flex Builder 3 and I used the Flex Properties - Library Path - Framework Linkage as Runtime Shared Library(RSL). The It created a framework_3.1.0.2710.swf. I have a question; if I use the library cairngorm.swc and if I want to externalize that too into RSL, What should I do? Can I only externalize framework libraries or can I externalize all the dependent libraries? How do I externalize the cairngorm swc from my application as RSL. Thanks, Srikanth

Re: {Disarmed} [flexcoders] AIR update framework only works to update AIR file
Hi KFB,
Thank you for your great input.
So basically for my need, I need to have a customized update system
since I am dealing not just AIR file but other files as well.
There are a number of references about determining whether it's the
first-run or not so adaptation of those techniques is probably worth
looking at.
Could you please let me know where I can get these references?
Thanks!

[flexcoders] Re: Help Me for SharedObject and registerClassAlias method
What you're saying here works, but you can definitely use
RegisterClassAlias to get strongly typed objects when
storing/retrieving data from a SharedObject or anything else AMF2
based (LocalConnection for example). This would prevent the need to
cast any objects.

In my case, the button is disabled for a few seconds right after it was clicked by the user (I disable it till the httprequest is returned and then enable it). What happens is that if the user clicks the button while it's disabled - nothing happens. But when the button turns enabled - it acts as if it just got the click event. It seems like the mouse click event went into this queue and the button listened to it right after to turned enable? Am I correct? If so - how can I prevent this problem?

Thanks Alex, So there shouldn't be any issues with the way I set the swfLoader in Cairngorn then? I did test with the profiler and unless I am blind I don't see it releasing memory, however, I am not an expert with it. When I do test with the browser (IE), I see the memory go down then back up, in the long run it always goes much higher and doubles or triples from original. I am not sure at this point if I should worry about it or code it a different way. If it is the brower, then I gather there isn't much I can do... Thanks again.

The mx:Image is bound to my modelLocator, so I am not actually unloading the image per say, I am just changing the source with databinding. I did assume however that it would unload the image before loading the next...That said, I've also tested to unload the image manually. I've read various conflicting posts on swfLoader and how it doesn't actually unload loaded swf's or images. I've also read that in player 10+ it actually unloads swf's properly...Can someone please tell me what simply is the truth? And if there is an issue with the swfLoader, than what would be a good workaround? Thanks in advance, I appreciate it.
[flexcoders] Re: filter arraycollection with checkbox acting wired
Hi,
There's a few problems with your original code. First, pizzaSelected
will never change after the first click of the CheckBox; because you're
only setting it if the CheckBox is selected. Also not sure why you
don't just use pizzaSelected = pizza_ckb.selected; instead of
pizza_ckb.data, or why use a reference variable at all. Second, you're
trying to compare String values to Boolean values. Boolean values are
sometimes stored as varchar, int, or bit in a database. Once the data
gets to the client, you need to make sure that you are either casting
these values to Boolean, or comparing them to similar data types; in
this case it looks like String. If you are using strings, also be
careful of spelling and case. Finally, you only need to use refresh()
once; after a sort or filterFunction has been applied to a collection.
Give this code a whirl:
private var pizzaSelected:String;
private function pizzaFilter():void
{
pizzaSelected = pizza_ckb.selected ? yes : no ;
filterGrid();
}
private function filterGrid() :void
{
// this assumes that you want to show all; if pizza_chb is not
selected
pizzaAr.filterFunction = (pizzaSelected == yes) ? myFilterFunction
: null;
pizzaAr.refresh();
}
private function myFilterFunction(item:Object): Boolean
{
return (item.pizza.toLowerCase() == pizzaSelected) ;
}

[flexcoders] Re: Datagrid not displaying selected item or rollover color any more.
Perhaps your DataGrids are inheriting some styles from the new containers. Since the header is showing a rollover, it's probably not an enabled issue. Try setting the styles directly on the DataGrid tag; to see if it is an inheritance issue and/or to isolate the problem. You want to make sure that useRollOver=true, selectable=true, and that rollOverColor and selectionColor isn't the same as the backgroundColor. You might also check to see if any new CSS has been introduced; that has settings for DataGrid. -TH --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Jason Nichols jason...@... wrote: I guess I didn't put down.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Help Me for SharedObject and registerClassAlias method
I'm not sure what you mean about casting in this context. Also, I
guess you meant AMF3 when you said AMF2? (with AMF0/ AS2, you can use
Object.registerClass() for the same effect).
In AS3, registerClassAlias() is the way to make this work. But, as
Braam said, [RemoteClass] is the simplest way: it will insert the
registerClassAlias() code for you, so you don't have to worry about
where to put it, and will make sure it is ready when you need it.

Hi,
i've yet posted this question but i can't resolve this problem..
i've created a custom value object class..a simple class with private

public class WindowInfo
{

private var _module:String
private var _xpos:int;
private var _ypos:int;
private var _width:int;
private var _height:int;
public function WindowInfo(id:String, module:String, xpos:int,
ypos:int, width:int, height:int)

this._id = id;
this._module = module;
this._xpos = xpos;
this._ypos = ypos;
this._width = width;
this._height = height;
}
public function get id():String {
return _id;
}
public function get module():String {
return _module;
}
public function get xpos():int {
return _xpos;
}
public function get ypos():int {
return _ypos;
}
public function get width():int {
return _width;
}
public function get height():int {
return _height;
}
}
then i created an array collection where each item is an istance of
value object.
then i have a shared object manager that looks like this:
package util{
import flash.net.SharedObject;
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
public class SharedObjectApplicationManager {
private var mySO:SharedObject;
private var ac:ArrayCollection;
private var lsoType:String;
public function SharedObjectApplicationManager(s:String) {
init(s);
}
private function init(s:String):void {
mySO = SharedObject.getLocal(s);
if (getf()) {
getf();
}
}
public function getf():ArrayCollection {
return mySO.data.arrayc;
}
private function adda(array:ArrayCollection):void {
mySO.data.arrayc = new ArrayCollection();
mySO.data.arrayc = array;
mySO.flush();
}
}
}
so when i try to get arraycollection with getf method i get an
arraycollection of generic objects…not with windowinfo objects..in
this manner i can't get value properties of value object class.
so i would use registerClassAlias(Info, WindowInfo) where WindowInfo
is the VO..but where?
the architecture of my app is:
-main application (verify the shared object, if full then call a
public function of canvas to create windows with specific parameters
saved in windowinfo class)
–canvas (contains one or more windows)
any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Hi Tracy, I have a little more complicated situation...
My linkButtons are now created with actionScript (addChild).
I set their IDs before adding them to their parent.
My action script also fills up my Array of linkButton IDs called buttons.
[Bindable]
privatevar buttons:Array = new Array();
foreach (var itemsIDs:String in buttons)
{
trace(itemsIDs);
this[itemsIDs].setStyle (styleName,linkButton);
}
My trace properly returns all the IDs of my buttons but I get the following
error:
Property test001 not found... and there is no default value.
It's like I don't have access to the ID of my linkButtons because they were
created via the ADDCHILD ???
Is this possible?
Any ideas how I can get around this?

Thanks Tim, I went ahead and defined a datagrid on the same canvas the one of the ones that aren't working, and it works just fine. I guess it's possible that there's something hidden within the domain model since that seem to be the only thing that all non working tabs now have in common. It's just very confusing since every has worked in past, and I have attempted to roll back to previous version with the same result. The one thing I haven't seen is if a parent class in the domain is messing everything up, or if it's something else coming from the grails side.

[flexcoders] Need advise on how to display multiple SWF apps
I have developed a small flex charting app that displays a graph based on xml returned from a web service. Works great. Now I want to display many of these charts in a single interface. The idea is to have 3 or so of these charts in a horizontal line say C1, C2, C3. At a time interval or a click event from the user, I'd like to shift C1 off screen to the left, Shift C2 to C1's former location, C3 to C2's former location and finally add C4 to C3's former location. (and the reverse if the user clicks the to the right). I'm open to doing this with JavaScript/HTML or inside another FLEX application. I thought I saw a demo (with source) once that had something similar where each picture in a gallery was a flash movie and you could walk through the gallery. Unfortunately, my googling has not turned that up again. Can anyone point me to an example that I could extrapolate from? I'm new to flex programming so I apologize if this something I should just know how to do. (pointers on where to learn that, appreciated as well.) Thanks in advance for any help or pointers. Todd

HBox, Repeater, and repeat a custom component containing SWFLoader. The custom component wrapper will make it easier when you want to interact with the items.

RE: [flexcoders] Image-swfLoader-memory
There's a profiler tutorial on my blog. However, in general, the number of instances of SWFLoader, Bitmap and BitmapData should not keep going up after you force garbage collection.

[flexcoders] Re: open new browser in maximized state
If all your users are running very old versions of Internet Explorer then you can use the ExternalInterface API to call a JavaScript function which calls the Browser/DOM window.open() function. The third argument to window.open() should have fullscreen in the features list (i.e., ..., fullscreen=yes,channelmode=yes, ...). This technique -may- even work on recent versions of IE, but I wouldn't rely on it work robustly (x-browser, or even x-version). See: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms536651(VS.85).aspx For a more modern, standards-orient take on this, see: https://developer.mozilla.org/En/DOM/Window.open This feature of windows.open() was fun and even potentially useful back in the old days of IE-only DHTML coding, but _not_ something I'd recommend these days. (If I remember correctly, in I.E. 5.0 you could create a kiosk/full-screen browser window, and then invoke window.resizeTo() on it; thereby creating an arbitrarily sized, *completely frameless* browser 'canvas' on a user's desktop. Just the thing for spoofing native OS dialog boxes and other social engineering. Good times, that!)

[flexcoders] Forcing an Image to redraw when the source filename is the same
In my application, I have an Image control that I am using for an application-wide image. Then user is allowed to upload this image to the server and it is saved with a set filename, for example ApplicationImage.png I was having trouble getting the Image to update when a new image is selected and uploaded to the server. This is because the source property is set to the same filename and the image was not reloading. I have seen posts elsewhere that explain that the browser caches the response it got from the first call you make when the image source property is set. To prevent this caching, you append a unique value to the end of the source path. For example, myImage.source = 'myPath/ApplicationImage.png?param=+(new Date()).getTime); This works for the most part but there appears to be a timing issue. If I select an image to upload, it uploads fine to the server, then in my complete handler where I get the response back from the server I reset the image .source property to the filename again and append the date value to trigger a refresh and the image loads with the selected value. But if I initiate this process over again, then image just stays to the old value. The source actually has been reassigned (because if I refresh the new image will be there) but the image has not been reloaded or refreshed. If I wait a good 5 seconds between each attempt to upload a new image, then the image will always be correctly updated to the newly selected one. How do I force the image to refresh every time? What is this strange timing issue that caches the old image value even though I am setting the source property to a unique value? Is there a way to prevent the image from caching or is there some timout value that can be set?

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flas 10 on mobile is a go
Jon, That is assumption based on the current status quo and not counting Adobe's and community capabilities and hardware in 15 month from now. Touchscreen is very questionable in most cases - slow and not very accessible in real life. I would expect other features to be way more important - as iPhone user but also early adopter of bunch of linux/windows/palm/nokia/android smartphones as well as great dumb phones that have no problem to serve as trunking devices/routers for laptops. Here is what I think Flash 10 is destined to do: 1. Break application jail - I want build application in the same environment - now I have to manage 3 guys coding for different platforms ( not counting Flex) and have to work in all of them. Single platform to deliver apps not controlled by apple store profit center is long overdue. 2. Break connectivity jail. I expect voice to be more important then touchscreen. While iPhone google apps do not work well, Jott does - but lack of integration and costs of calls are show stoppers for adoption. Flash can fix that with great mashups. 3. Integration APIs are really important - exposing bluetooth, accelerometers, GPS, camera, photo and multitude of voice codecs for input and output and all other standard capabilities. 3a. I wonder if Adobe can work on simultaneous integration of their technologies into supporting platforms the way Apple built their business - building ecosystem - either with free or low cost licensing of embeddable technology. I really think that GMaps on iPhone are way better then top of the line car navigation system based on stale hard drive data. But iPhone screen is not usable while driving. On contrary, 7+ car display is perfect - but you can't transfer phones display there. Perfect application for Adobe display technology.

RE: [flexcoders] How to get input language in Flex 3 app
I don't think the Flash Player has an API for this. What would you do with the input language?

Is there a way to programnatically determine the current input language as set in the language bar?

[flexcoders] Re: default skin in flex 3 component
I am looking at mx.controls.Button now. I guess I am confusing skin name, skin class and skin as a DisplayObject;) Hopefully I will figure it out tomorrow morning!

[flexcoders] Re: Mouse Clicks' Queue when Button is Disabled
Thanks Alex for the quick response. However, the button is supposed to turn enabled after the result is returned. The problem is that while it looks like the button is disabled - clicking on it results in entering to the function which listens to it. Moreover, I logged/traced the time the the button turns back to enable + the time entering to the function that listens to it - it's exactly the same - by the millisecond. meaning - i can't event log the time the button was clicked - cause the mouse click event is only dispatched after the button turned enable. one last thing - I found a workaround by removing the eventListener when the button is disabled , and adding it back with a timer that starts counting after it turned enabled in ticks of 100ms. ( the the clicks are not listened in that time space of when the button turned enable and 100ms after that). The thing is that i don't want to use a timer... it's a very ugly solution. Thanks again, Gilad
Re: [flexcoders] Re: filter arraycollection with checkbox acting wired
Replace the following functions, run the app in debug mode and post the
output:
private function pizzaFilter():void {
trace(pizza_ckb.selected);
if ( == true)
pizzaSelected = pizza_ckb.data;
filterGrid();
pizzaAr.refresh();
}
private function myFilterFunction(item:Object): Boolean
{
trace(item.pizza);
return (item.pizza == pizzaSelected) ;
}

[flexcoders] Re: Is it possible to set different width for columns in HorizontalList ?
Great, Thanks, you pointed me to the right direction, please advise of this 2 crucial issues, if you may :) 1. How do I place a repeater in an AdvacedDataGrid cell/column? I need to have a special column in a tree table that contain a set of colored images side by side (the repeater creates it for me) 2. How do I eliminate the padding that I get from using a repeater to show a list of colored images?
