[flexcoders] Update to Flex SDK 3.5 Released

2010-02-02 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
Hello Flexcoders -

The Flex team has released an update to the 3.5 SDK that addresses an issue 
with the Flex-based AIR auto-update UI packaged within the SDK 
(SDK-24766https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-24766). The refreshed build, 
SDK 3.5a,  has only a few files modified in order to fix this issue and this 
change does not affect the signing and caching of the SDK 3.5 RSLs originally 
released in December.

We encourage all developers using SDK 3.5 to upgrade their build to SDK 3.5a to 
continue their development. The SDK 3.5a can be found in the Latest Milestone 
Release Build table here: 
http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Download+Flex+3.

Thank you,
Deepa Subramaniam
Flex SDK Product Manager


RE: [flexcoders] Building components at runtime

2009-11-04 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
This is definitely possible, and is essentially what Flash Builder's Design 
View does (FB's Design View is just a large Flex application) under the hood. 

You will want to parse your XML and build up Flex objects at runtime (using the 
new operator), set properties on the objects based on the attribute values in 
the XML data (by setting properties directly, using setStyle() to set style 
attributes, etc) and add the newly created objects to the display list while 
mimicking the correct containment hierarchy. 

I'll leave it up to knowledgeable folks on this list to point you to 
community/blogosphere resources.

Subject: [flexcoders] Building components at runtime

Hi all

Thanks to the success of my first Flex application I've been asked to write a 
new one that is required to build the user interface from XML data it receives 
from a server. So the app sends a request to an HTTP Server and gets XML back 
that signifies such things as username, string, maxlength=40; startdate, date 
and so on from which the app would build a component and display it, capture 
values and send them back to the server.

So far all my (limited) Flex work has been MXML-specified user interfaces so 
I'd like to ask if people think this idea is hard to implement in ActionScript 
(I assume it's doable) and if there are any examples anywhere I could look at?

Thanks

Paul

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Does DataGroup support XML?

2009-10-23 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
In Flex 4/Spark, the dataProvider contract is limited to IList implementations 
(the Flex framework provides several IList implementations straight out of the 
box like ArrayCollection, ArrayList, XMLListCollection, XMLList, etc). We 
decided to do this to reduce complexity which in our dataProvider-aware 
controls. As part of this, we now don't auto-wrap raw data like Array or XML 
into ArrayCollections or XMLListCollections, which is why you need to do that 
manually.

RE: [flexcoders] Menubar Styling

2008-06-20 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
You can style the MenuBar by setting styles as attributes, or through
ActionScript, on the MenuBar directly.

To style the menus popped open by the MenuBar, you can loop through them
in ActionScript and set styles on the Menu instances as appropriate. To
loop through the MenuBar, you can use the getMenuAt() method which
returns Menu objects. To figure out how many Menus the MenuBar has,
check the length of the MenuBar's menus property.

Subject: [flexcoders] Styling of Invalid Inputs (Urgent)

Greetings -

This question concerns the styling of inputs and the special invalid
tooltip produced when a 
validator declares some input to be invalid. 

The Flex docs correctly point out that the invalid tooltip color can be
controlled using the 
.errorTip css class selector, however this has no effect of the border
drawn around the invalid 
input, ie it stays red. Thus if I set borderColor in .errorTip to green,
I get a RED border on the 
invalid input but with a GREEN error message tooltip, not good.

Any suggestions on how to control the invalid input border color?  I've
tried using the invalid 
event to manipulate borderColor, themeColor, styleName, etc. all to no
effect.

I have to deliver this code today so any help would be very much
appreciated!

couldn't you?  i.e. just call PopUpManager.removePopUp(_popUp) without
the following line that nulls the reference.  Is that not right?

RE: [flexcoders] Styling of Invalid Inputs (Urgent)

2008-01-16 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
I'd suggest filing an ECR. You could also grab the error tooltip
instance from the tooltip manager position it as you desire. The docs
have a slightly similar example to this:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhel
p.htm?context=LiveDocs_Book_Partsfile=tooltips_074_13.html 

 

Except in that example they create the tooltip themselves (which is also
an option for you) :-)

Ah yes, that works. Thank you so much!  Another related question...
.errorTip lets you control the placement position of the errorTip, ie
borderTipRight, errorTipBelow, etc. however while these options change
the direction of the graphical pointer leaving the error tip, the tip
itself doesn't change position, ie if you set errorTipBelow, the
pointer now points up, but since the tip didn't move, the input field is
still to the left, and the pointer is pointing up at nothing...  

 

Note to Adobe... sure would be great if changing borderStyle on
.errorTip also changed the tip position... the Callout component does
this

You can specify a skin that the Menu uses as the separator. Check out
the separatorSkin style. There are examples of how to create graphical
skins (using Flash, Fireworks, etc) or programmatic skins (creating an
ActionScript file that draws the skin via the Flash drawing API) in the
Flex documentation - you then set the separatorSkin style to that skin. 


Also, this is a pretty expensive way to set styles on your Menu

Subject: [flexcoders] adding backgroundColor to Canvas retains images
after removeAllChildren()?

I've run into a strange behavior with a Canvas component. I'm using a
Canvas to do some basic GoogleMap-like functionality: I add images to
the canvas, it's got scrollbars because the added images sometimes
extend the size of the canvas beyond it's container size, and it's
draggable. There are times when I need to load a new set of images. In
those cases, I simple call removeAllChildren() and then start adding
my new images. 

It worked fine until I set the backgroundColor. Prior to this I had
not set the bgColor so I was just using the default. The strange
effect that has created is when I want to 'refresh' the canvas with a
new set of images (and call removeAllChildren()), it leaves behind the
images that are in the viewable portion of the canvas. If I drag the
canvas around so that the old images get clipped, then they get
'painted' over with the background color (which is simply black).

I've tried calling validateNow() in between the removeAllChildren()

RE: [flexcoders] Spacer in MenuBar

Check out the code below. You can pre-set the width of the MenuBar item
you want to act as a spacer (just be sure to disable it otherwise it
will respond to mouse activity). Individual MenuBar items are accessible
off the main MenuBar control via the 'menuBarItems' property.

RE: [flexcoders] moving a LinkBar

Use a boolean flag to track whether the LinkBar has already received its
first click (in which case play the move effect) or not. 

 

 private var clickedOnce:Boolean = false;

 private function handleClick(event:ItemClickEvent):void

 {

 if (!clickedOnce)

 {

 //play the move effect, this is the first click

 clickedOnce = true;

}

else

//no move effect - these are subsequent clicks 

 }

 

You can control when you want that specific effect to play by
controlling the value of the flag.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Joining two (or more) ArrayCollections

2007-10-22 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
How timely! 

I just spoke about this at my MAX talk - the code example and supporting
slides are on my blog: http://iamdeepa.com/blog/?p=7 Look for the code
example and slides called Merged Collections. 

Basically what you want to do is write a custom collection that does the
merging of your data for you. All the list-based controls can take
collections as dataProviders so your custom collection can be set as the
dataProvider of your list control, and boom, you're done.

My example shows a custom implementation of IList - which is the easier
of the collection interfaces and will probably suit your needs just
fine. (The other collection interface is ICollectionView). What you'll
want to do is make sure a getItem() on your merged collection does a
getItem() call on the sub collections and produces a merged object
representing the data you desire. You'll also need to implement the
getter for the length property on IList (which looks easy since I
believe you stated that the sub collections are the same length so you
can just return the length of one of those sub collections). My example
on my blog goes on to show how you can implement the add/remove/modify
logic so that changes in the underlying collection gets pushed up to the
merged collection and the UI control updates.

Note: I am missing something key in my example. You'll want to cache the
merged item created by the getItem() call in a dictionary or hash table
and return that upon subsequent getItem() calls (basically, getItem()
should see if a merged object already exists for that index and return
that, otherwise build up a new merged object). Also, implement IUID so
that the merged objects have a unique ID which is required by the list
controls.

I actually tried following this approach:

for each (obj in ac2) {

When I combine the two AC's in this way I get (eg. assuming 3 rows

ac3 =
Field 1 / Field 2 / Field 3 / Field 4
object / object / null / null
object / object / null / null
object / object / null / null
null / null / object / object 
null / null / object / object 
null / null / object / object 

What I'm really looking for is:
Field 1 / Field 2 / Field 3 / Field 4
object / object / object / object 
object / object / object / object 
object / object / object / object

I hope this makes sense.  So I'm really close now, but I'm missing 
something key here.

Nesting containers unnecessarily will affect the startup time and

Hi,

The title sums it up... basically, I'd like to select a datagrid row 
on rollover. There's a rollover event on the datagrid but I see no way 
from that, to obtain the id of the row that's currently being 'rolled 
over'... any ideas ?

Alternatively... and here's the reason I'm trying to do the above...

I have a context menu on the datagrid which provides the user with 
options to carry out on the currently 'rolled over' row... but when 
the user clicks the right mouse button, the 'rollover' color 
disappears. I want the rollover color to remain when the menu pops up. 
My only solution was to force the rollover row to be the selected row -
 which would solve this. If anyone can think of an alternative way to 
stop the loss of the rollover color then that'll be just as good ;-)

Thanks,

Jamie.

Ah - that is because AnimateProperty is just cycling through all the RGB

may want to do is add an event handler for the tweenUpdate event on the
AnimateProperty effect instance and check to see what the value passed
in the TweenEvent object is. That value is what the backgroundColor is
at that moment in the lifetime of the effect. You can then add in your
own logic that sets the backgroundColor depending on where the effect is
in its lifetime (ie: simulate a progression from dark gray to light
gray). I'm not 100% sure how that will work out but I'd be interested in
finding out what doesn't work about it.

I ran your bugfile and it seems to run fine for me in Firefox

please confirm whether you are using a Mac, Windows or Linux machine.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: ListBase.as getting called after Drop to Datagrid--Preventing the Drop???

2006-12-05 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
A few things: first, you'll have to call preventDefault() on your
DragEvent object to cancel the default behavior so that only your custom
event handler runs. Second, you'll have to add a custom dragOver event
handler so that the DataGrid shows the correct feedback allowing items
to be dropped from the Tree.

2006-12-05 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
That's actually not true. dropEnabled just indicates that a control
allows items to be dropped into it, given that the data format of the
items being dropped matches what the control expects. The default
DragEvent handlers are used to handle the drag  drop operations, though
you are always allowed to add your own event handlers to override the
default behavior.

If you're defining your own drag-drop event handlers, I don't think
you're supposed to use dropEnabled='true'; dropEnabled='true' means that
the default handlers are used.

 

From 'Flex 2 Dev Guide':

 

dropEnabled

 

A Boolean value that specifies whether the control can be a drop target 

that uses default values for handling items dropped onto it. The default


value is false, which means that you must write event listeners for the 

drag events. When the value is true, you can drop items onto the control


by using the default drop behavior.

RE: [flexcoders] XMLList/XMLListCollection: sort on attributes

2006-12-04 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
Assuming the XMLListCollection created from the myData XML object looks
like this:

public var col:XMLListCollection = new
XMLListCollection(myData.children());

Then you would sort on the category name like so:

private function applyMySort():void
{
var s:Sort = new Sort();
s.fields = [new SortField(@name)];
col.sort = s;
col.refresh();
}

As for your second question, we don't support e4x expressions in the
sort field. To get that behavior you'll have to write your own
compareFunction that compares on the values you desire. You'll find that
the mx.utils.ObjectUtil class has all the comparators you'd need to do
this.

RE: [flexcoders] Fade from one color to another

2006-12-04 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
Ah - that is because AnimateProperty is just cycling through all the RGB
values between your fromValue color and your endValue color. What you
may want to do is add an event handler for the tweenUpdate event on the
AnimateProperty effect instance and check to see what the value passed
in the TweenEvent object is. That value is what the backgroundColor is
at that moment in the lifetime of the effect. You can then add in your
own logic that sets the backgroundColor depending on where the effect is
in its lifetime (ie: simulate a progression from dark gray to light
gray). I'm not 100% sure how that will work out but I'd be interested in
finding out what doesn't work about it.

 

Incidentally, you should check out Alex Uhlmann's Animation Package
where I think he has an effect that does exactly what you want. That
will probably be easier :-)

If i change the fromValue and the toValue to a two digit number like so
it is a very smooth transition but it does not fade from white.  It only
fades from blue. Try this: 

mx:AnimateProperty id=fadeColor isStyle=true
property=backgroundColor

 Hi,
 
 I found this difficult to reproduce. I'm a bit of a flex rookie, but
 given the exception I think flex is complaining after it's looked for

 To my understanding, creationComplete is dispatched after
 initialization of components. I haven't yet experienced the error
 since I changed:
 
 creationComplete=initCollections();
 
 to
 
 initialize=initCollections()
 
 But since it's hard to reproduce I can't tell for sure if this is at
 all related to anything happening here...

the bug is not related to this. even the MenuBar is properly filled by
initCollections(), there is something wrong in MenuBar::showMenu() 

After many tries, here a way to reproduce it:
- build the menubar post in this Thread. (taken from Menubar doc)
- click on Menu 2
- now the tricky part: move to Menu Item 2-B but immediatly go to 
Menu 1 then immediatly go to Menu 2 before Menu
Item 2-B open
and before Menu 1 open (may be).
- Menu Item 2-B should open when Menu 2 is closed, or
something
like that
- MenuBar::showMenu() should crash on Menu 2

this is not easy to reproduce, may be because the submenu is not big.
BUT: playing with big menu with big submenu for a moment always crash.

RE: [flexcoders] where to drop on tree

2006-11-07 Thread Deepa Subramaniam










The calculateDropIndex method in Tree will
tell you the index of the dropped node and then you can lookup the id of the
node at that location to update your database. 



If you  need more information then that (ie:
the parent node of the drop, whether youre dropping into an empty
folder, etc), look at the updateDropData method in Tree to see how that
information is calculated. Currently in Flex 2, updateDropData and the data
object carrying all that relevant information (dropData) are private. In the
next release of Flex, dropData will be public so all the relevant drop
information will be accessible.

RE: [flexcoders] showRoot not working on mx:Tree ?

In Flex 2, we did not take rootedness into
account for XMLLists and ArrayLists. This is something that we fixed in the
updated 2.1 build which will be coming out soon. 



As a workaround, you can pass the children
of the topics node directly to the Tree (dataProvider='{xmlTopicTree.topics.children()}')
or extend Tree and modify the set dataProvider code in Tree to toggle the _hasRoot

I'm trying to put a clickable URL in a datagrid. So far, here is 
what I have for my column:

mx:DataGridColumn color=#ff headerText=Email

dataField=strUserEmail
mx:itemRenderer
mx:Component
mx:LinkButton label={data.strUserEmail} 
click=navigateToURL(new URLRequest('mailto:'+data.strUserEmail),

data.strUserEmail)/ 

/mx:Component
/mx:itemRenderer
/mx:DataGridColumn

I want to make the email address blue (#ff). However, nothing I 
do seems to change this. Whether I put in DataGridColumn or 
LinkButton, neither works. 

What am I missing?

TIA
Mike

RE: [flexcoders] Problem with setFocus()

2006-10-30 Thread Deepa Subramaniam












Hi Rick 



setFocus() is the correct method to use to
put focus on the TextInput, including the cursor blinking within the TI.



But are you using Firefox? Your issue is a
fact of life in the Firefox world. Youll notice that in Firefox, calling
setFocus() off any of the initialization events will not cause the cursor to
blink within the TI. Doing the same off a button click or some sort of other
user initiated event will work. This is because Mozilla has some specific
issues around giving plug-in content focus upon initialization. 



Hope this helps -

deepa

I'm
trying to use setFocus() to put the focus on a text input when my 
application starts.

However, most of the time, I get the blue halo around the text input, 
but no cursor. I can't type until I click in the text input to put the 
cursor there.

I'm using Flex Builder's generated HTML/_javascript_ page for embedding 
the flex app, so I don't have the click to activate problem...

RE: [flexcoders] How can I block a TabNavigator ?

2006-09-18 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
What you can do is iterate through the TabNavigator's tabs and disable
each of them. By disabling them, the change event will not get emitted.
Use TabNavigator.getTabAt() and set the enabled property to false for
each Tab.

Now, when you disable a Tab, the Tab will assume the look of its
disabled state (grayed out, etc). You probably want the Tab to look
enabled even if it is disabled - in which case you'll have to change the
Tab's disabledSkin.

Horrors. It's really good making the user think (s)he can navigate the tabs,

RE: [flexcoders] How to display XML object in DataGrid

2006-09-15 Thread Deepa Subramaniam












Your DataGridColumns need to specify a
dataField property to determine which field in the XML object to display as the
text for that cell. If you need to customize the text beyond just pulling out
a field from the XML, you can use a labelFunction to do so. I believe the ASDoc
example for DataGrid shows how to use an XML object as the dataProvider. 



http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/index.html




Navigate to the DataGrid control and scroll
down to the example.

RE: [flexcoders] have there any rightClick mouseEvent in Flex2?

2006-09-14 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
Yes - you can add a ContextMenu that pops open when you right click in a
Flex application. You can use the flash.ui.ContextMenu class to add
custom menu items to your ContextMenu and then use event handling to
invoke the desired behavior.

Attached is a simple example that shows how you can right click in a
DataGrid cell and add that item to another DataGrid. This should point
you in the right direction.

RE: [flexcoders] Tree Component expandItem Animation true problem.

2006-09-05 Thread Deepa Subramaniam










This is because of the way the depthColors
are drawn. They are only drawn in drawRowBackgrounds() which gets called in
updateDisplayList() so the row background colors are not tweened during the
animation. Ive added an enhancement request to allow for tweening of
background row colors during the animation.



Possible workarounds include overriding
onTweenUpdate() and manually tweening the backgroundColor of each row yourself.
You might be able to get away with writing your own TreeItemRenderer where each
UITextField was encompassed in an HBox with backgroundColor set. However I
think since renderers are re-used, youd have to write some code to make
sure that as each renderer is re-used its backgroundColor is changed to
maintain the color ordering prescribed by that rows depth.



If you find the shifting of colors too
ugly, you can change your openDuration to 0 so that there is no animation and
the items just open with the correct background row color.

RE: [flexcoders] Getting contents of ArrayCollection (flex newbie)

2006-09-01 Thread Deepa Subramaniam












You can iterate through your collection by
using the IList methods like getItemAt(), which returns an Object. Something
like:



for (var i:int = 0; i 
myCollection.length; i++)

{

 var
data:Object = myCollection.getItemAt(i);

 //do
something with data 

}





Alternatively, you can use the
ICollectionView methods (ArrayCollection implements both interfaces) and use a
cursor to iterate through the items in your collection.


For example:



var cursor:IViewCursor =
myCollection.createCursor();

while(!cursor.afterLast)

{

 data
= "">

 //do
something with data 

}



The ASDocs and documentation have more
examples and explanations.

RE: [flexcoders] Problem with Sorting

2006-08-31 Thread Deepa Subramaniam












The SortField objects take the name of the
field in the object to be sorted as a String  so your dot _expression_
will not work.



What you can do is write a custom
compareFunction for your Sort object. A compareFunction takes two objects and
returns -1, 0, or 1 depending on which order the two objects should be sorted.
The ASDoc for Sort.compareFunction has the function signature and a good
example so check that out for more info. 



Your custom compareFunction can access
top-level and sub-properties on each object and then sort accordingly.

 OOP, Design Patterns, Application Design, etc? 
 
 I'd really like something that will help me in Flex, although I know
 php, vb, and a few others (not Java). Most of the books I see are
 either completely generic theory, so it's hard to tell one is better
 than another (hence my question), or they're targeted to a languange I
 don't use (Java, C++), so I won't get as much out of them as I'd like.
 Some are targeted at Flash, which is better, but is still Flash
 focussed, so not ideal?
 
 I have links to:
 
 Head First Design Patterns

(http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0596007124/ref=pd_cp_b_title/103-0966880-4095845?ie=UTF8)

 which looked good, but I wanted to see if anyone else had better
 options or knew anything about those (the 2nd one is due out in
January).

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Disabling a nested menu item in a menu bar?

2006-08-23 Thread Deepa Subramaniam












Hi Jeff 



MenuBar.getMenuAt() returns a reference to
a Menu. getMenuAt() is a method on MenuBar and menuItems is a property on
MenuBar, which is why you encounter the errors below when you try to use those
APIs on a Menu. 



Since Menus are dynamically created as
needed, there is a possibility a nested child menu has not been created yet. As
menus get created, MenuBar adds those menus to its menus array. menus
is a handy array that stores Menus created for that MenuBar control and you
might find that handy for your needs. 



If you cant guarantee that the
menus have been created but you still want to walk your MenuBar, you can go at
it from a data-centric point of view. You can use the MenuBars
dataDescriptor to walk the MenuBars data looking for children
(hasChildren(), getChildren() will be handy) at each node. If children exist,
you know that node has a sub-menu. 



One last thing  it looks like your
original question was how to disable menu items. Since disabling/enabling is a
data-driven functionality (all you need to do is toggle the enabled property)
you can do it through the data bound to the MenuBar instead of walking the
MenuBars individual Menus and sub-Menus. For example, you can use e4x to
access the node you want to disable in the MenuBar dataProvider and set the
enabled attribute to false and boom, your MenuBar will show that menu item as
disabled without any extra work. Or, you can go at it through your MenuBars
dataDescriptor and find the node you want to disable and use
IMenuDataDescriptor.setEnabled() to disable that node.

RE: [flexcoders] datagrid.selectedItem.image (don't work)

2006-07-06 Thread Deepa Subramaniam












If your DataGrid is consuming e4x XML as
its dataProvider, then the selectedItem value will be an e4x XML node. Is imagen
an attribute of the selected node or a child? If its an attribute then youll
need to do: source=[EMAIL PROTECTED]
in your Image tag. If imagen is a child node, you probably need to dot down
correctly to it. Trace out selectedItem and youll see the structure of the
XML and then formulate an _expression_ accordingly.

Currently the player's ContextMenu class does not support sub-menus.
Also, you cannot catch the mouse right click and pop open your own menu

RE: [flexcoders] Select a Tree item on Right click

2006-06-30 Thread Deepa Subramaniam












Well, good news and bad news. Normally,
the event object properties on the ContextMenuEvent would help you accomplish
what youre asking for in a cinch. The mouseTarget property on a ContextMenuEvent
contains a reference to the display list object which the user was over when
the context menu was invoked. In most list-classes, like DataGrid, the
mouseTarget is the specific renderer the user right-clicked over. This is
perfect, because the renderer contains a lot of information that allows you to
figure out where the user invoked the context menu. For example, off a
DataGridItemRenderer object, you can access the listData property which
contains the index of the row the user right-clicked on (listData is a
BaseListData object which has the property, rowIndex). Then youd just
set your DataGrids selectedIndex to rowIndex and voila  the row
the user right-clicked over is selected. 





Unfortunately, there is a bug that does
not allow this to work for Tree. The bug was deferred for the 2.0 release
because it was found late in the development cycle. When a ContextMenu is invoked
over a Tree, ContextMenuEvent.mouseTarget is not the TreeItemRenderer instance
that the user was hovering over. Instead, its the generic container for
the TreeItemRenderer. This does not give us any useful information.



There is a workaround, albeit a kludgy
workaround, that you could try. In your ContextMenuEvent handler, you could add
an event listener for the MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER event. Your MOUSE_OVER handler
could then work off the information contained in the MouseEvent.target property
and (hopefully that is a reference to the TreeItemRenderer) you can figure out
the rowIndex like I mentioned above and set the selectedIndex of the Tree
accordingly. Then, be sure to remove the event listener at the end of your MOUSE_OVER
handler so that the Tree is not constantly spewing MOUSE_OVER events.


Whew  that was a mouthful but hopefully you followed and youll be
able to live with the bug and or implement the workaround. I cant make
any promises but Id like to see this bug fixed so Ill definitely
add your usecase to the bug to give it some momentum.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Keeping DataGrid from scrolling to top on update to dataProvider

2006-06-28 Thread Deepa Subramaniam










Im sorry, I totally misspoke. I
meant to say RESET in my explanation below. 



When your collection is filled with new
data after a fill() call to your DataService, the component bound to that
collection will receive a CollectionEvent with kind = RESET. Internally, we
re-populate the component with the new data and reset the scroll position to 0.



What you can do is add your own collectionChange event handler to your
collection and upon receiving a RESET, reset the verticalScrollPosition to
whatever value youve been tracking.



private function
acHandler(event:CollectionEvent):void

 {

  if (event.kind ==
CollectionEventKind.RESET)

 dg.verticalScrollPosition
= vPos;

 }



Theres no need to use the
scrollToIndex() method; by setting the verticalScrollPosition property
directly, the scrollbar and content are update as if the user scrolled to that
index. 



Best,

deepa

RE: [flexcoders] Icons in menu - not working

2006-06-28 Thread Deepa Subramaniam










Yup, you are correct. I just talked to
Roger about this. 



What is happening is that MenuBar checks
to see if an iconField is set. In your case it is, and the MenuBar looks to see
if a Class, exitOn, exists with that name in the application or a property on
the document with that same name exists. It does, however you cannot access a
static var off an instance, only off the class. So, the lookup in the MenuBar
code fails.


Your workaround of making the embedded asset var non-staic is correct.

RE: [flexcoders] Icons in menu - not working

2006-06-28 Thread Deepa Subramaniam










Just to be clear, this is not a bug. This
is just a fact of life since were using some sort of indirection of
specifying an icon attribute in the dataProvider and then using an iconField
property to look up that reference. So, in cases like that the embedded asset
needs to not be a static variable. Other cases without this indirection, like a
Button icon, will work correctly.

DataGrid from scrolling to top on update to dataProvider











Hello All,

I am working on an app in which I poll the server quite frequently to get new
information. The information comes to me in an XML format that I simply
assign as the dataProvider for a DataGrid component. 

I have to keep in consideration the fact that the user may have selected a
certain row, and may want to delete that row even after an update to the
dataProvider is made, so I keep track of the selectedIndex property and
reselect upon an update.

But if the user has not selected a row, the DataGrid will automatically scroll
to the top upon an update, even if the user has scrolled to the bottom of the
grid. 

Is there a way around this? I found a way to scrollToIndex(), but no way
of getting the currently viewed items. It may have something to do with
the various renderer properties available on the DataGrid, but I have a very
limited understanding of this, so it's over my head.

Surely this problem has been run into before, but I can't seem to find the
right combination of search terms to figure out a method of solving it.

Does anyone have any ideas or proven methods for the problem? Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Keeping DataGrid from scrolling to top on update to dataProvider

2006-06-27 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
When the actual data comes in, the DataGrid encounters a REFRESH
collectionChange event and if you look in
ListBase.collectionChangeHandler's REFRESH case, you'll see that the
verticalScrollPosition is set to 0. 

What you need to do is set the scroll position *after* the data has come
in and the DataGrid has processed the REFRESH event.

I actually tried this (my dataProvider for the grid is an 
XMLListCollection being populated by a jsp. The grid has custom item 
renderers if that's relevant).

anyhow, I have an update button which will call the jsp and get 
new results when clicked. I've set it up so the click() method 
correctly captures the scroll position, calls the jsp, and then sets 
the scrollToIndex to the previous value of the scroll position. It 
works great while the busy cursor is displayed, but it reverts 
back to scrolled all the way at the top once the actual data comes 
in from the jsp (it takes about 3 seconds to update the grid with 
the new data).

any ideas on where the scroll position is being reset?

RE: [flexcoders] Tabbing through items in a container

2006-06-20 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
Currently in the framework, you cannot tab through components like
Label, Text and Image. They will not respond with a focus highlight
which other controls, like a Button, do. Try your same test case with a
Button and you'll see that the controls respond to tabbing in the order
specified by tabIndex.

Subject: [flexcoders] Tabbing through items in a container

Hi there

I am trying to build a custom list that allows the same type of cursor
tabbing though child items as a list / datagrid.

I have created a custom class that extends HBox. I have chosen a
container rather than a list to extend from, because I do not want a
fixed column width for items.
 
I have tried various test cases to implement tabbing though a
container's children with no luck. Ultimately I want to build a custom
class that extends a container and dynamically adds child UI-items
that can be tabbed through.

Alternatively, is there a way to allow for dynamic column sizes for
items within a list?

Code:
mx:Canvas tabChildren=true
mx:Label text=1. /
mx:Label text=A tabIndex=0 tabEnabled=true /
mx:Label text=B tabIndex=1 tabEnabled=true /
mx:Label text=2. /
mx:Label text=C tabIndex=2 tabEnabled=true /
mx:Label text=D tabIndex=3 tabEnabled=true /
/mx:Canvas

RE: [flexcoders] MenuItem with icon

2006-05-10 Thread Deepa Subramaniam



You need to be sure your assets are embedded in your swf, then all you have to do is specify an iconField on your Menu (ie: myMenu.iconField = @icon). 

Here's a simple working example: 

mx:Script
![CDATA[

[Embed(source=sendBack.jpg)]
public var _sendBack:Class;


import mx.controls.Menu;

 private var menuData:XML= 
  root
   menuitem icon=_sendBack label=Send To Back action="" /
   ...
   ...
   ...
  /root;

 private function go():void 
 {
 var menu:Menu = Menu.createMenu(this,menuData,false);
 menu.labelField=@label;
 menu.iconField = @icon;
 menu.show();
 }

]]
/mx:Script

Also, you can specify an iconFunction for better control over which icon is displayed for each row.

RE: [flexcoders] ComboBox Fields

2006-05-09 Thread Deepa Subramaniam










There is the labelField property, which
you can use to specify which field in the objects of the dataProvider should be
used to display the label for each item. If you require further formatting, you
can set a labelFunction which is a function that is run on each item to
determine the label for display. The docs have examples of both these
properties in play.

RE: [flexcoders] Validation framework and changing the way tooltips get triggered (F2B2)

2006-05-08 Thread Deepa Subramaniam



If you're using Flex 2, check out triggerEvent in the Validator class.
That allows you to specify which event triggers the validation. I
believe by default this happens when you remove focus from the
component, but you can use triggerEvent to customize the behavior.

Subject: [flexcoders] Validation framework and changing the way tooltips
get triggered (F2B2)

At the moment the validators will highlight a field in error and if you 
mouse over it, it will display the error message.

Is it possible (this could be a feature request if its not too 
late :) ), to select the way this is triggered?.

Rather then just only having the mouseOver event triggering the display 
of the error message tooltips, allow other events to trigger it as well 
e.g. when a users tabs to a field that is in error, we can show the 
error message tooltip on a focusIn event - this might be handy for Call 
Centre Applications where users tend to prefer to use the keyboard 
rather then the mouse etc.

maybe a displayTriggerEvent attribute in the validators or something :)

cheers

You need to re-build your swfs to be
compliant with the Beta 3 source code and be sure to use the player that is packaged
with the Beta 3 build. There should be documentation on the labs site that call
out code changes in the Flex framework and in the Player that were made between

RE: [flexcoders] DadtaGrid Distress

2006-05-04 Thread Deepa Subramaniam



What format is your data in? I'm guessing you need to set dataFields on your DataGridColumns to instruct the DataGridColumn which field or property in the dataset to associate with itself. 

Try tracing out your data and read up on dataField and labelFunction (labelFunction helps format your data for display in the DataGrid). 

Goodluck -

RE: [flexcoders] Two Flex 2 Components Questions

2006-05-02 Thread Deepa Subramaniam



rowHeight is a property on List-based components. MenuBar does not
derive from ListBase so you cannot set rowHeight on the MenuBar. You
need to set it on the individual menus the MenuBar pops up. 

You can use the getMenuAt() method to grab each individual menu from the
MenuBar and set rowHeight there. Try something like:

mx:XML id=dp
 node label=root
  node label=one
   node label=child /
  /node
  node label=two
   node label=child /
  /node
  node label=three
   node label=child /
  /node
 /node
/mx:XML

mx:Script
![CDATA[
import mx.controls.Menu;

private function setRowHeights(mb:MenuBar):void
{
 for (var i:int = 0; i  dp.children().length(); i++)
 {
  mb.getMenuAt(i).rowHeight = 50;
 }
}
]]
/mx:Script

mx:MenuBar id=mb dataProvider={dp} showRoot=false
labelField=@label creationComplete=setRowHeights(mb);/

It seems not! If I try to use it as a property on the MenuBar tag I get

RE: [flexcoders] How to set the Color of a Slider Thumb?

2006-04-25 Thread Deepa Subramaniam



Well in Flex 2 you'd set the fillColors style to color the slider thumb.
You would pass in the same color for both values for the thumb to have a
flat color, or you can achieve a color gradient by varying the colors
for both the values. 

I think the same might be true in Flex 1.5, but I haven't tried it out.

You should be able to use the vPosition and hPosition properties on Tree to

RE: [flexcoders]Combobox feature?

2006-02-16 Thread Deepa Subramaniam

This is a feature. The List-based components, of which ComboBox is one,
allow de-selection by Ctrl+click on a selected item. 

There are a few ways to workaround this (subclass the component,
perhaps). One that comes to mind is to capture keyboard event and
cross-track that with the selectedItem to decipher when Ctrl+click on
the currently selectedItem has occurred.

RE: [flexcoders] Datagrid sort Arrows

2006-02-14 Thread Deepa Subramaniam










What Matt means is that there needs to be a Sort object that
is assigned to the collections sort property. You dont need to
actually trigger the sort (by calling refresh() on the collection) but there
needs to be a Sort assigned.



For example:



 localCol = new ArrayCollection(people);

 var s:Sort = new Sort();

 s.fields = [new SortField(name)];

 localCol.sort = s;

 dg.dataProvider=localCol;

 dg.placeSortArrow();



localCol has a Sort object assigned to it but not triggered.
The DataGrid will show the collection unsorted and with the sort arrow in the
column header. If you want the Sort to be applied, all you have to do is call localCol.refresh()
before assigning it to the DataGrid.

RE: [flexcoders] How to deselect all items in a list?

2006-02-14 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
You can always set the selectedItems or selectedIndices properties on the 
list-based components to an empty array to programmatically force de-selection. 
The component's UI will respond accordingly.

Subject: [flexcoders] How to deselect all items in a list?

In my experience standard list widgets on various platform implement a 
behaviour where clicking in an empty row of the list deselects all the 
list rows. The Flex list component doesn't seem to behave this way by 
default. Is there a way of enabling this behaviour without resorting 
to event listeners?

Thanks.

RE: [flexcoders] how to display ruler in mx:Grid

We also provide the HRule and VRule components which you can use to create a 
dividing line in a container. You can drop those two components into a 
container just like any other control (ie: as a child of your Grid container).

If you mean displaying grid with borders, you can do that by setting
borderStyle property to solid in Grid, GridRow and GridItem tags.
You can also change the border thickness by setting borderThickness
property to a valid number.

Let me know if that doesn't answer your question.

Changing the background color of a Datagrid Row in Flex

I have heard this question many times and I don't think it is

Subject: [flexcoders] DateField  selectedDate toggle

If you select a day in a DateChooser or DateField, it sets the
selectedDate 
to the Date value chosen.  If you select it again, it sets it to
undefined.

This is not desirable.  This is the only control that does not follow
the 
List way of working:
- click to select
- control + click to deselect

This is driving our validation crazy as well.

In Flash MX 2004, I simply extended the CalendarLayout  DateChooser to
fix 
the problem.  I did not allow de-selection, therefore never had to worry

about selectedDate toggling to a non-selectable value if a user clicks
the 
same date again.

In Flex, this isn't so straightforward.  For now, I'm going to just try
to 
extend the DateField, extend DateChooser's getter/setter functions
(since 
there are like 3 functions that are too huge to extend that atcually do
the 
re-setting of the variable), and then hi-jack the class that DateField 
throws up in the PopUpManager to use mine instead.

...anyone have a... you know... better way?  Perhaps an already fixed 
DateField?

RE: [flexcoders] flex 1.5 - mx:List selectedIndex question

2006-02-02 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
Yes, you'll want to use the vPosition property, which is available on all the 
List components, to scroll your List accordingly. 

vPosition can take a value like the row number you want to scroll too. So when 
you set the selectedIndex on your List in the 3rd tab, set the vPosition of 
that List to the same selectedIndex value and the scroller will move there with 
the selected row in view.

but the List component has not scrolled down to the 6th element, the
user has to actually scroll to see that the 6th element is selected in

Is there a way to ensure the List component visually scrolls to the

RE: [flexcoders] TabNavigator and Flex2 Beta

2006-02-02 Thread Deepa Subramaniam










I just glanced quickly at the code and it looks like it is
an issue with the measuring of the label text for the selected tab. The bug
only happens when the leading characters of the selected tabs label
starts with capital letters. If you try:



mx:VBox label=afta

mx:VBox label=aFTA



Or similar variations youll see the TabNavigator will
layout correctly. If you can live with alternative labels then you might be ok,
but if others have workarounds please share them.

RE: [flexcoders] Transparent Tilelist

2006-01-30 Thread Deepa Subramaniam










Hi - 



backgroundAlpha will only work if a backgroundColor or backgroundImage
is specified. Try adding one of those and then setting backgroundAlpha and you
should achieve transparency.

RE: [flexcoders] Unable to detect changes to variable

2006-01-30 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
Just to add some context, by marking your page and perPage variables with the 
Bindable metadata, Flex will monitor those properties for changes and generate 
events for when something in that property chain changes. This is a new 
mechanism added in Flex 2.

You need to make the variable bindable. Try this:

 

// variables

[Bindable]
public var perPage:Number = 6;

 

[Bindable]
public var page:Number = 1;

I defined the page variable in Script and want to increment it on

parameter of an HTTPService call (get_data). The page variable works
on the initial HTTPService call, but can not be changed. I get the

Alright, after reading through all the archives, cflex.net and
googleIve come to the conclusion I cant solve my issue J I have a super basic
menu function.

public function showMenu() {

 myMenu =
Menu.createMenu(null, myEMP2Service.result.query.row);

 myMenu.show(200,
10);

 Alert.show(trace:
+myMenu,hey!,Alert.OK);

}



I call this from a button
on my movie.



mx:Button id=clickBtn label=Add Note click=showMenu()/ 

It works and I see the alert. Now I do the same
with a datagrid, right after the button, in the same element/level in the
movie.

mx:DataGrid id=AFTAsDG width=100% height=95% dataProvider={myAFTAService.result.query.row}
change=showMenu()



No menu! But the alert
shows the menu exists! No matter where I move it, it doesnt show up. Can
you not do menus on changeEvents for Datagrids? Im assuming
its a depth issue of some sortideas?

RE: [flexcoders] Stand-alone scrollbar possible?

2006-01-25 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
Hi -

We provide the HScrollBar and VScrollBar components for you to instantiate as 
standalone scrollbars. Here's an example of a vertical scrollbar that controls 
the scrolling in a horizontal scroll bar. 

mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml;
mx:VScrollBar id=v height=200 scroll=h.scrollPosition = 
v.scrollPosition maxPos=200 minPos=0 /

mx:HScrollBar id=h width=200 maxPos=200 minPos=0/
/mx:Application

In your case you'd instantiate a standalone scrollbar and write a handler for 
its scroll event that controls the scrolling in the other UI component this 
scrollbar is managing.

Yup, these components are provided in the 1.5 framework so
this should be possible. Glancing at the ASDocs, there shouldnt be any
syntax changes between the 2.0 example and running it in 1.5.

RE: [flexcoders] Bugs with Flex2

2006-01-24 Thread Deepa Subramaniam










You could try programmatically removing the column and then
adding it back in when you needed it using the removeColumnAt()/addColumnAt()
methods? Just keep a reference to the removed column for when you need to add
it back in later.

Subject: [flexcoders] Bugs with
Flex2

I found a bug with something in
Flex2where do these kind of things need to be reported? The
problem

Well, I figured out the problem with my cellRenderer moving about. Lets
say I have 4 grid columns, with the third one having a cellRenderer function.
Now with actionscript, I do a hide on the third column:



myDataGrid.getColumnAt(2).visible =
false;



Id assume it would hide the
column with the cellRenderer, which it does  but the cellRenderer moves
to the 4th column! Unhiding the column with a visible = true returns
everything back to normal.

The code for this is real simple. Have a cellRenderer on the 3rd
column of a Datagrid with 4 columns, by doing mx:DataGridColumn cellRenderer={DistanceRenderer} etc. Then make a button to
hide the 3rd column and youll see the Renderer attempt to
render your 4th column.

RE: [flexcoders] Clear DateField

2006-01-24 Thread Deepa Subramaniam
Well there's many ways to do this - it depends on what workflow you want your 
end user to go through. Like you said, you could add a clear button. You could 
have the DateField clear its selected date when it is opened (hook into the 
open event and set selectedDate to null). You could have the DateField clear 
its selected date when the associated TextInput is clicked into, etc. 

There's many ways to do this and all the hooks to do so are provided within the 
component. 

Goodluck!
