[flexcoders] Use StyleManager.setStyleDeclaration to set button skins in Flex
Hello all,
I am trying to load an swf file which has button skins as images (In
the library of the swf file i have given export properties which is
'TickMark') and set the skin of a flex button using
StyleManager.setStyleDeclaration.
I am getting errors like 'Argument count mismatch on TickMark().
Expected 2, got 0.'
This is what i am trying to do:
private function init():void
{
loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,styleSWFLoaded);
loader.load(new URLRequest(styles.swf),new
LoaderContext(false,ApplicationDomain.currentDomain));
}
private function createStyle(styleName:String):void
{
var style:CSSStyleDeclaration = new
CSSStyleDeclaration(styleName);
var cls:Class =
ApplicationDomain.currentDomain.getDefinition(Tick) as Class;
style.setStyle(upSkin,cls);
}
}
StyleManager.setStyleDeclaration(.buttonme,style,true);
}
When I apply this new style 'buttonme' to a button i am getting below
error:
ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on TickMark().
Expected 2, got 0.
Not sure why is this happening, and strange thing is, when I embed the
same swf file it works, like below:
[Embed(source=styles.swf, symbol=Tick)]
private var GraphicClass:Class;
If I use the class GraphicClass in setStyleDeclaration, it works...
but basically I want it dynamically.
Or there are other easy methods to skin (image) a flex button
dynamically?

Hi all, A apologetic reply email from Adobe technical support acknowledging a mistake, shows healthy reflexes and is the right thing they 've done.

Re: [flexcoders] Matching colors between Photoshop and Flash/Flex
Hey Charlie, Without looking at the PSD I'm guessing your Photoshop is using CMYK or Lab Color (both common for print). It is virtually impossible to get a true conversion from CMYK but Photoshop does a pretty good job. But in any case you need to convert the Photoshop file to RGB before trying to match with Flash. Go Image Mode RGB Color. Also make sure Image Mode 8 Bits/Channel is checked. -- RuneImp On Wed, Sep 30, 2009 at 5:02 PM, Charlie Hubbard charlie.hubb...@gmail.com wrote: So I'm having some trouble matching colors between Photoshop and Flash. As I understand Flash is sRGB, and I believe my photoshop file is sRGB (not totally sure). However, obviously something is off because the colors aren't matching. I can't seem to find any information about matching Flex and Photoshop colors. I'm seeing problems with the hex values I pick up from the interface as well as an image I export. So what's the secret sauce? I'm sure this is simple, but I'm new to this matching color junk. Thanks Charlie

[flexcoders] Re: Getting My HTML Thumbnail Gallery To Work Using Event.complete
Unfortunately, you have no real control over how long a site takes to load. There are a huge number of factors that can affect that. If it were me, I would try to cache these images on a server. ie. when one person has loaded site X, send the thumbnail to the server and put an entry into the database. Then on subsequent accesses, you can check if that site is already in the database and if it isn't, load up that site. I would probably add the date and time into the database so I could do a refresh every three months or so. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, James garymoorcroft_...@... wrote: Thank you very much Steve. That work's perfectly now. I never realised it would be that easy. I'm quite inexperienced when it comes to coding. If it's anything more than click=change something or other then it's beyond me at times ha. Just on another note. These images I'm trying to make in my final app will act as links to the sites in question within 9 different categories each with a few sites and the html window will be made non visible. I want to decrease loading times of the html window and the app itself as much as possible. If I use the same code for each categrory by using a html window for each categrory each loading images the way this one does would that take up too much loading time do you think especially on lower internet connections or would it be okay? Also is there any way of making the html components load faster in any way perhaps by making them load a low res version of some sort? Basically I'm looking for ideas to make this aspect of the application as quick in it's loading times as possible.

I just can't figure out for the life of me this is even this way. I have components that need to resize depending on the real-true height of their internal text component. Is there any proven solution to make this work correctly? Why oh why, is this the way it is? Please explain or point blame to another team. Off the soapbox, I apologize if I offended you, but it offends me that I can't with one line of code get the true height of my text. At least part of the problem is that the List based components set explicitWidth rather than width, and explicitWidth in UIComponent doesn't call any of the invalidation methods, so sometimes itemRenderers can't tell text objects inside them how wide they are, which makes text sizes wonky inside renderers.

If your host can send a .SWF file to the client's browser, you can run a simple Flex program.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex Project Hosting
As Laurence said, any normal hosting providers can host your swf file (Flex after all throws a SWF file). Flex/ Flash CS4 are just IDEs both finally build a swf file only. Flex builder is just a name to differentiate the IDEs. So normally any hosting providers can host your swf files. There are number of ways to connect your flex/flash applications with the Database...Say if you are using Java as the back end, use Blaze DS, Web ORB to connect Database, For PHP there is AMFPHP, ZendAMF etc. Or using XML and Http Services we can achieve the same task with any programming language.

[flexcoders] Re: LCDS Offline Synchronization
Thanks Jeff for the prompt response, coincidentally a few hours after writing this post, I managed to solve my problem by doing pretty much what you said. Making an explict call to connect after the datastore and dataservices are initialized correctly updated the commitRequired flag. I had thought that setting autoConnect to true would do the resync but I guess an explicit connect is required. Thanks again. Dennis --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Jeffrey Vroom j...@... wrote: It sounds to me like you are just not getting that particular DataService connected before you do the fill. There is a DataService.connect method if I recall correctly that might help. I don't think you get commitRequired=true when the app is in a disconnected state. The fill will auto-connect before it runs so that would explain why it is initializing the data store. The reconnect policy setting is set by default from the server configuration. I think there is an api on the client which also sets it though, probably on the DataStore property of the DataService.. note that there is also a refresh operation on the DataService client which essentially does the same thing only manually. It sounds to me like when you are calling fill, it reconnects which then refreshes that fill as per the reconnect policy, then you do the fill again so it happens twice. If you just call connect, you can avoid that extra fill call altogether.

Scenario: After committing a change to the offline cache, I see the commitRequire flag on the DataStore is set as true and I save the offline cache. Next, I close the app, start up my server and restart the app expect the offline data to by synchronized. On application restart one thing I noticed is that on initialization of the DataService and DataStore, the commitRequire is false even though the offline DataStore was previously required a commit. If I do a fill for data that was modified in offline mode, my success callback registered to the AsyncToken from the fill call is called twice. It seems one result of the fill is coming from the offline data cache and the other is from the server side data. After the fill call, the commitRequire flag of the DataStore is now set to be true and that is were I do a commit. Q. Is this expected? Does LCDS compare the fill results between the offline cache and the server data to determine if commitRequire is true? Should I blindly call commit once I leave offline mode and delete the offline cache? If I delete the offline cache from the filesystem, the callback from the fill is only called once. Ideally I want the callback from the fill to only be called once and to contain the synchronized results of the fill. Q. In looking at the LCDS dev guide is see the follow passage in Chapter 18: Advanced data handling: If there is a connection available after the local cache is loaded, the current reconnectPolicy property value is consulted to determine how a request for the current data will be made. If the reconnectPolicy property is set to IDENTITY, no request for remote data is made because it is assumed that the data is up-to-date. If the reconnectPolicy property is set to INSTANCE, a request for the remote data is made and the result of that fill is used to overwrite the current in-memory version. Where is the reconnectPolicy defined and do I need to change this? I apologize for the length of the post, I've tried to be as concise as possible.

[flexcoders] Flex Out Of Memory Errors
I keep getting a flex out of memory error to do with java heap space every time I run an app which is very big as it's 15,000 lines of code long and contains over 50 embedded png images but the solutions I've been sugegested/tried so far don't work and the error persists every time I try to save the app. It is an air application. Can anyone explain the steps I need to take to address this problem as I'm totally stuck with it and can't even run the application in question because of it. I'm on Vista and according to flex I'm running 'JSEclipse' if that makes a difference. I'm not sure if I need to provide any more information on my system/software to fix this problem but if I do please ask Thanks.
[flexcoders] LCDS Deleting offline data cache
If a user deletes the offline cache of an Air app then starts up the app in offline mode what is the expected behaviour results from a fill request? On my local setup, the callbacks bound to the token from my fill request are not called and the app waits indefinitely. I expect an empty fill result list similar to what would happen when you make a offline request that was never cached. I could write some custom code to return empty lists when the sqllite db file does not exist, but i'm thinking there is a nicer and built in way of doing this. Any suggestions? Dennis

[flexcoders] ExternalInterface : debugging, DOM, Export Release Build
My browser-deployed Flex app, built in FB4, is using the ExternalInterface. The Flex app gets some search terms from the user, goes out to a webservice for some data, and then pushes some html markup out to a DIV in the HTML document using the ExternalInterface.call() method. I send the content across the bridge as a parameter to javascript function that appends a child to the target DIV. Nice and simple with the EI. However, I have a couple of questions about the logistics of developing this sort of application in FlashBuilder. When Export Release Build is chosen from the Project menu in FB4, it destroys and recreates the HTML deployment wrapper for the SWF. Is there any way for the developer to provide an HTML document template to FB, marked up with comments/metadata tags, such that only the Adobe browser-sniffing code and SWF-embed code gets overwritten but the rest of the HTML document (the user-portion) remains intact? Also, is it possible to set up a project in FB4 that uses the ExternalInterface, where you can step through code in the debugger and also see pushed content being rendered in the HTML document hosting the SWF? In debug mode it seems not possible to work with your actual HTML host document and its javascript functions-- or am I missing something obvious? I am pretty new to FB and that could easily be the case. Finally, will future versions of the ExternalInterface expose the DOM of the hosting document via ActionScript object wrappers? Thanks

Re: [flexcoders] LCDS Deleting offline data cache
I've been away from the code a while and so can't remember exactly but one thing you'd have to do to get that to work is to compile in your services-config.xml into your client app. The offline data store contains the names of the data services id properties, associations etc. when the application does not have it compiled into directly. Without that info, LCDS does not know what destinations are there, the id properties etc. and so cannot even initialize without any data. When you use the new hibernate assembler, it's default behavior is to generate the id properties and associations (the stuff that you'd normally put into services config.xml manually) from hibernate's configuration which means it just is not available to the compiler. it's always downloaded at connect time and LCDS is not really working until that happens. As I recall, there is supposed to be some event or error or something that is thrown when this happens so that you could catch that and at least report that they need to connect. Turning on the debug log on the client would be the quickest way to see what is happening. There is probably a way you could hack the ServicesConfig.xml static property to avoid this altogether - i.e. just set it to some hard-coded string that you squirrel away from a system which did initialize itself properly. Just make sure to set it before you try to initialize the data service and it will act like it was compiled in.

I expect an empty fill result list similar to what would happen when you make a offline request that was never cached. I could write some custom code to return empty lists when the sqllite db file does not exist, but i'm thinking there is a nicer and built in way of doing this. Any suggestions? Dennis

[flexcoders] How do create two different charts?
Hi All, Has anyone done creating two different types of charts in the same scale? I need to draw a stacked area chart and a line chart on the same chart area. But I don't know how to do that. Can someone give some advice? Or some examples? Thanks so much for any advance or suggestion. Pat.
Re: [flexcoders] How do create two different charts?
Quick answer, and I may not have time to follow up with more detail . You can have different series types within the same chart definition. In other words, an mx:ColumnSeries element doesn't have to be inside an mx:ColumnChart element. So just use an mx:CartesianChart (I believe that's what it's called) and add the series you need. Of course, the devil's in the details, but that might get you started.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: CROSS-DOMAIN POLICY HELP PLEASE!!!
Timing is important, and so is configuration. If you launch the app via file:// then you need the put the folder in the FlashPlayerTrust file(s). If you are launching the app via http:// then you need a crossdomain.xml file on the root of www.MyDomainName.com and make sure it gets loaded before the request for the image. I’ve never bothered to figure out when you have to use a LoaderContext and when the player will automatically look for crossdomain.xml.

[flexcoders] Re: Limited Heap Space Problem
Well, first of all, I'd try to find another way of allowing users to view your 50 .PNG files, without embedding them in your code. That'll free up a TON of memory. (It's why Hard Drives were invented. GRIN) Maybe load them into memory from a folder, as they're needed, rather than embedding them all? Through a little experimentation, I've found that you CAN increase the Xms and Xmx variables to 1024m, if your -XX:MaxPermSize is 512m or less. (And obviously the -XX:PermSize must be equal to or less than -XX:MaxPermSize.) Also, each thread you're running will use a stack -- if the stack size is too big, that will limit the number of threads you can run. So maybe the default stack size is too large for your particular app? Try adding an -Xss1204k to the .ini file and see if that changes anything...

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Limited Heap Space Problem
I don't know much about Flex Builder, but I've seen this happen before with lots of java programs. I think you might be actually setting the heap size to something like 512 bytes, and therefore java doesn't have enough ram to load itself. If Flex Builder doesn't bend to your will, might I suggest using something like Hellfire so you can compile outside of flex: http://stopcoding.wordpress.com/ FCSH is also an option.
