RE: [flexcoders] Flex2 versus Flex3 font size
We fixed some padding bugs in the Button classes. In Flex 2, if you
explicitly set a width, the button would ignore the padding in order to
fit the label. In Flex 3, we fixed this behavior so that padding is
always respected.
One solution for you is to adjust the paddingLeft/paddingRight values of
your buttons. You can try setting these on a Button type selector to see
if it works.
mx:Style
Button
{
paddingLeft: 0;
paddingRight: 0;
}
/mx:Style
Ultimately, I'd recommend creating a class selector and referencing it
using the styleName property on all of your precisely sized buttons.
mx:Style
.myButton
{
paddingLeft: 0;
paddingRight: 0;
}
/mx:Style
mx:Button label=Try this width=40 styleName=myButton/

Brian,
Usually it is more helpful if you can post a stack trace with line
numbers.
mx:Glow id=qtyGlow target=qtyDisplay color=0x99FF66/
Should be:
mx:Glow id=qtyGlow target={qtyDisplay} color=0x99FF66/

Subject: [flexcoders] error 1006: value not a function; on effect.play()
I'm getting this error while trying to call play() on a glow effect
I've created. I'm trying to call play() from within a function that is
called as a result of a bindable value being changed. Basically I have
a data model with bindable data and a Label which displays the data.
When the data changes, I'm trying to play the glow effect on the label
to highlight the change. What am I doing wrong?
All these objects are defined in the same .mxml file. Relevant
snippets are :
myNS:Order id=order
...
(inside script tag)
public function getQtyDisplay(currentQty:int, maxQty:int):String {
var result:String = currentQty+(+maxQty+);
qtyGlow.play();
}
...
mx:Glow id=qtyGlow target=qtyDisplay color=0x99FF66/
...
mx:Label id=qtyDisplay text={getQtyDisplay(order.currentQty,
order.maxQty)}/
The getQtyDisplay() function works fine w/out the play() call. After I
added it I started getting this error, so I wrapped the play() call in
a try/catch block.
RE: [flexcoders] Dynamically Changing Easing Function Again
Amy,
Did you import the easing functions? (ie. import mx.effects.easing.*). I
think you'll also have to create dummy variables of each class. These
classes won't be linked into the swf unless you perform these steps.
GetDefinitionByName will only return a result if the class is linked in.

This is aggravatingly difficult to do.
You don't say what's going wrong, but I suspect that
getDefinitionByName() is returning null when you pass it a string like
mx.effects.easing.Cubic. That's because the Cubic class doesn't exist
in your SWF... the MXML compiler has no way of knowing that your app
needs it, so it doesn't link it in. One way to get it to be linked in is
to declare a static var of that type. Note that simply importing it is
NOT sufficient to link it in.

Yes, I had seen that, which is why I made sure I mentioned that I was

This is aggravatingly difficult to do...at this point it would have
been far faster to just do a swich case and hard-code in all the

The button itself doesn't use its own states to move between the

There is a bug in ComboBox when you

RE: [flexcoders] Custom server validation
Mike, From a UI-perspective, I see two ways of doing this. One way is to perform client-side validation immediately after the control has lost focus (the default behavior of a validator) and then trigger server-side validation off of some event (ie. Pressing the submit button). For the server-side validation, you can directly pass a ValidationResultEvent to the component using the UIComponent.validationResultHandler function. It doesnt make sense to subclass Validator in this situation. The other way is to perform client-side and server-side validation at the same time. Right now it is not possible to incorporate server-side validation into a Validator subclass. Wed have to modify the validator infrastructure to get this to work properly. Ive gone ahead and filed a feature request for this functionality.

However, that doesn't seem possible because the doValidation() method, where I would make my Flash Remoting call, has to returnan array of ResultEvents.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Custom Validator woes....
Susan,
The
reason that it is not static is because most validators have properties that
help define the validation rules. For example, the Number validator has a maxValue
and minValue property. Also, you can customize the error messages for each
validator. Thus, we need instances of the validators to accomplish this.
As for the errorString
property, it is better to use the UIComponent.validationResultHandler function
instead. Just pass in the results from the validate() function.

Thanks. I guess I just got mixed up since it's a little unnatural to
instantiate a class to call a method that should be static! Also,
adding text to the errorString field automatically sets everything
redhere's my method should anyone search upon this message at a
future date:
private function validateField() : void {
var emails : Array = toField.text.split(,);
for(var j:uint=0; j emails.length; j++)

var emailVal : EmailValidator = new EmailValidator();
var valResult : ValidationResultEvent =

Any ideas on this?? Is there a way to statically call a method without
having to pass in a reference to the EmailValidator object?

Hello
all,
I'm defining a few states in my application and transitions between
these states.
In the beginning of the design development I was using the property
x for a panel, and in the transition I defined:
mx:Move easingFunction={Circular.easeOut} duration=1000
target={myDataPanel}/
And the movement between states run well.
Now I need to change the property x for the style
horizontalCenter, in order to get in my main application the
correct
placement of the panel.
Now the panel movement doesn't work. I even forced the
mx:SetStyleAction relevantStyles=horizontalCenter

luck.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Flex2B3: Problem with a custom component nested repeaters
Aejaz,
What
the error message is saying is that you have assigned two values to the
TileLists dataProvider property. The first place is the mxml attribute:
mx:TileList dataProvider={myQArr} . The message
also explains that the TileLists default property is dataProvider.
What this means is that if you place tags inside of the TileList and dont
specify which property they belong to, then it assigns the value to the default
property (which is dataProvider). The FormItem inside of TileList
is thus being assigned to TileLists dataProvider property.
TileLists are not containers, so they cant
contain other components inside of it. You need to use an itemRenderer if you
want to control the appearance of the individual items.
Im assuming in this situation that
you didnt mean to have the FormItem inside of the TileLIst. Just remove
it and you should be able to compile.

This may even be a Flex 2 beta problem, but I have not been able to track it down. It happens when I push the Tab key. Is there a way to handle/capture/mute the runtime error message, just until I can figure out the bug???

RE: [flexcoders] Capturing ESCAPE key in IE
The Flash ActiveX Player doesnt
receive ESCAPE key presses. Probably because IE doesnt pass this along
to the Player.
When you receive a keyDown event, you can
find out of the ESCAPE key has been pressed. But this only works if the user
presses ESC and another key at the same time.
There is no workaround. Youll just
have to not use the ESC key in your application.

RE: [flexcoders] NumberValidator dynamic binding problems
Unfortunately Validators in Flex 1.5 don't support binding in values
like your example. Instead, you need to programmatically create a
NumberValidator and update the maxValue property when maxVal changes.
Then you'll need to call the validator's doValidation function yourself
when you lose focus from the field you are validating.
In Flex 2.0, it is possible to bind in values to a validator's
properties.

hi all,
I am using Flex 1.5 and trying to do something like that:
mx:NumberValidator minValue=1 maxValue={maxVal} domain=int
field=model.field/
I need to have maxValue attribute dynamically calculated as it might
change and I want my validator to know what is the current maxValue
for that field. However, this doesn't seem to work. I define a
variable maxVal, assign it a value, and bind it to the validator. But
it doesnt see it. If I hardcode it like that:
mx:NumberValidator minValue=1 maxValue=8 domain=int
field=model.field/
it works fine, but dynamic binding doesn't work here.
anyone has any suggestions? Thanks a lot

RE: [flexcoders] can someone explain creationPolicy=queued
Clint, Can you post your mxml here? Setting the creationPolicy to queued on the Panels will create the panel container and queue up the creation of its children components. The thing that triggers the children to be created is the Applications creationComplete event. Once we receive this event, we proceed to create the components in the creation queue. It is not necessary to specify creationIndex. You dont want to set the creationPolicy on the Canvas to queued. In the following example, you see that the HBox is created when the application starts up. At a later time, the children of the container (the Button), get created. mx:HBox label=HBox1 creationPolicy=queued borderStyle=solid width=100% mx:Button label=Box 1 creationComplete=output.text += 'box3 created' + '\n' / /mx:HBox Heres a link to an article I wrote on the subject: http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/flex/articles/prog_layout.html Jason From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Clint Modien Sent: Tuesday, June 28, 2005 5:44 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] can someone explain creationPolicy=queued Hey Matt... thanks for taking the time...

RE: [flexcoders] Re: context-sensitive help
As a followup to my post, I realized I was running my test on Firefox, which
does not display its own Context help when pressing F1. In IE, when you
press F1, it pops up the context help. To get around this problem, you can
use a bit of script in your html page.
Create a wrapper for your mxml app (one method is to grab the html source
when you view your mxml app), and then add in the following script into your
html wrapper:
SCRIPT
function dsble_Help(){
//replace this -alert- with your help scripts
alert('confirmation that event will trigger the F1 command')
return false;
}
document.onhelp=dsble_Help
/SCRIPT
Note that your Flex app will still receive the F1 keystroke (ascii 112) in
IE.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Radio Button Custom Component
Let me explain what is going on here and why it has been done this way.
Let's say you've got a MXML Component called myChoice. It contains three
RadioButtons, called rA, rB, rC. You assign each of these a groupName
called myGroup. It also has a member variable called dataProvider. The way
that you use this component is that you set the dataProvider property, which
then sets the label and data properties of each of your three RadioButtons.
Now in your main application, you instantiate three of these myChoice
components, called cA, cB, cC.
In this application, would you expect all nine RadioButton be part of a
single group called myGroup? No, you'd expect that there would be three
groups and that the RadioButtons within each component are only a part of
the internal group of the component. The same thing with the dataProvider
property. You wouldn't expect that this property would be shared among all
three components.
What is happening under the covers is that a RadioButtonGroup with the id
myGroup is created as a member variable of the myChoice component.
So in short, radio buttons can only share a RadioButtonGroup if they are
within the same class. (Remember that each MXML file is its own class.)

I'm using a repeater to grab a component that makes a

When the app is displayed, there are 7 radiobuttons. The

is, they are not in the same group. They are all individually

Min, You might be running into some processing limitations of the Player. Check your CPU usage during these transitions. There are a couple of tricks you can use to optimize this. If the objects you are animating have child components, you can turn off the visibility of these children while the animation is playing, and then restore them once the animation completes. If you don't have any children, you might consider using a simplified version of the object when you are doing the animation. You can also try to stagger the transitions so that not all 5 are running at the same time. You can use a combination of Parallel, Sequence and Pause to get this behavior. Ex.

RE: [flexcoders] Custom Preloader Questions
James,
If you don't want the loader to go away after the application's
creationComplete event, override the creationComplete function in your
application and have it do nothing.
Then call preloadObj.pBar.removeMovieClip(); when you want to get rid of
the preloader.
Note that if you override the creationComplete function, you will will break
progressive layout, which is used when you set the creationPolicy of your
containers to queued.
Preloading can be thought of occurring in two phases, the download phase and
the application loading phase. When the app is in the cache, it skips the
download phase. Your custom preloader should be subclassing
DownloadProgressBar. When the application loading phase starts, your custom
progress bar will have its indeterminate property set to true. If you want
to have more control over the appearance of your preloader in the
application loading phase, override the set indeterminate function like
this:
function set indeterminate(val:Boolean):Void
{
// Do my animation here
}
Note that during this time, the type of animation you can do is pretty
limited. The Player is spending most of its time loading up the application
and has few cycles to dedicate to updating the stage.

The useHandCursor
