[flexcoders] A Viewstack but not with Canvases
Hi, I have a complex flex app I've been building for months, most of the containers are Boxes,VBoxes, HBoxes.. now I need to have two layers: my current app(1st layer), and a videodisplay that will take the whole space(2nd layer). That would be easily done(I assume) if both of my layers were Canvas and I used a Viewstack to switch between them. But apparently the Viewstack won't work properly with Boxes... Assuming you guys got my problem, any ideas? Best regards, Leonardo C.
Re: [flexcoders] Re: A popupbutton without arrow?
Yep! But I had already figured it out myself.. :) Thanks anyway 2010/1/19 peeyushtuli peeyus...@gmail.com Are you looking for something similar to this? http://www.metadesignsolutions.com/samples/flex/popbutton/controls.html --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com, Leonardo Camargo camargoleona...@... wrote: Hi folks, I'm looking for ideas...

Re: [flexcoders] Developing Flash/Flex on Linux
A new linux based IDE would be awesome, I only wished you guys had started developing it a year ago, cause now, assuming you get to it, it's gonna be another yet till it's out. 2009/10/22 primo411 primo...@gmail.com Besides, Intellij Idea provides a free license for open-source projects developers http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/buy/buy.jsp#openSource. But I guess an Eclipse-based IDE will always find its audience ;) 2009/10/22 Nick Collins ndcoll...@gmail.com Personally, I'm not all that concerned about Flex Builder running on Linux, in and of itself. Now if they ported the Creative Suite as well, I would be totally psyched. Unfortunately, as long as CS is only available on Windows or OSX, I'm going to be tied to those platforms. That being said, for those who want to code on Linux, IntelliJ IDEA is an excellent editor, and feature for feature, FDT will have a very hard time competing with it with their current pricing. IDEA is $250 for a single developer license, and that includes MXML support, integrated debugger, Flex Unit integrated with the IDE, etc. To get the same features in FDT, you'd have to pay more than 3X that.

Not sure why Adobe took a big dump on Flexbuilder Linux. I was totally OK with using Flexbuilder on Linux with all the missing features that Windose Flexbuilder has except that Flexbuilder Linux never worked right even though it was crippled. I have never used FDT but I have heard it works pretty well. If people are having a hard time getting Java software to run cross-platform then I question why. The countless other Eclipse plugins I use don't have a 2 year lag between Windose and Linux versions because JAVA IS CROSS-PLATFORM. If you guys make FDT work on Linux I will check it out. Adobe obviously doesn't give half a crap about Linux. fonzibruno wrote: Powerflasher, the creators of FDT, the Flash/Flex IDE, is seriously considering investing to support the a Linux version of FDT, if interested let us know.

[flexcoders] Skinning a VSlider [2 Attachments]
Hi all, I need to change the appearance of a VSlider using the following thumbSkin and trackSking (I've attached them, I hope they went through). It's intended to be a volume control, and as you can see, kinda looks like that of Youtube. The problem is, the trackSkin never covers the whole path, so the thumb is moving beyond the track in both edges, and I need not only that the whole path is skinned but that a margin remains after both extremities (again, kinda similar to Youtube's). Any ideas anyone? Regards, Leonardo C.

Re: [flexcoders] Books - Flex
Hi Gustavo, well, that highly depends on what are your immediate needs for this knowledge and how much time you have. Others here will advise you to simply look for internet tutorials, which are indeed great and enough. But I just like to buy and read books :) Right after I found out that I would need to learn flex, first book I read was Learning Flex 3 http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596517328/, in my opinion it's the best book for absolute beginners, covers all the important fundaments. I read it within a week, and soon after I was able to do some tinkering in some projects at my job. After this, I've read AdvancED Flex 3http://www.friendsofed.com/book.html?isbn=9781430210276, also a very good one in my opinion. From then on I pretty much stood with internet resources. Specially in light of the fact that there's no books on BlazeDS, red5, especific frameworks, or many other technologies you may need to use. Att, Leonardo 2009/5/6 axcdnt axc...@gmail.com Hi people, My name's Gustavo and I'm new on Flex. I'd like to know your opinion about good books I can buy. Thank you!
