Re: [flexcoders] hideing a tab in a TabNavigator

2009-01-02 Thread Mario Vieira
editing the display list is a way, or simply trying to set the tabNav  
children visible to true/false is also a goal


you can create your UI with a method, and so perform checks to see who  
will be added at run time or not
you can create item renderers that uses XML, and perform further  
checks based on the UI

or, or...

HOWEVER, I would not remove and add child without a more developed way  
of doing this so (what about the info you may have in this tab  
container?)

How can I hide a with AS3 when a if condition is true.  So it would
show in the TabNavigator sometimes.

[flexcoders] persistent server-side shared objects

2008-10-22 Thread Mario Vieira
what is deal with writing persistent server-side shared objects with  
AMF3 object encoding?

fair enough, in FMS3 everything should be server-side scripts, but why  
can't I flush it?

Language reference says I could,  but how!?
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flashmediaserver/3.0/hpdocs/help.html?content=Book_Part_34_ss_asd_1.html

//an simple example that should work!!!
//main.asc
application.onAppStart = function()
{
 trace("I'm ok");
 myShared = SharedObject.get("server_so", true);
};

application.onConnect = function(client)
{
 var varName;
 application.acceptConnection(client);


 client.storeIt = function(dataNow)
 {
 myShared.setProperty(varName, dataNow);

//myShared.lock();

myShared.flush();
//nor  SharedObject.flush();

//myShared.unlock();

//light please!
}

  client.setVarName = function(aVar)
 {
   trace('aVar: '+aVar);
   varName = aVar;
   trace('setVarName: '+varName);
 };
};

can someone throw some light please

cheers

Re: [flexcoders] Call container functions from swfloader?

2008-07-09 Thread Mario Vieira
haven't done this in AIR, but with Flex generated swfs, I have used  
the content object of the swfloader, and I have embedded the swf  
loader (AIR might have to do anyway)


private var _downMeter:MovieClip;
_downMeter = meter.content.getChildAt(0).getChildAt(0).getChildByName 
(Consts.DOWN_METER_MC);


however, meter is loading a AS3 swf, exported to ActionScript.  
Indeed, I can talk to my meter.swf methods


hope it helps


worked with AIRnot sure about the AIR / Flex SWF published for web

Subject: [flexcoders] controlling a swf from SWFLoader

I'm working in a ISP Costumer Service page that allows the users to  
upgrade/downgrade their bandwidth.


I have a swf that is a meter display, and this has a movie clip  
whose timeline changes this meter pointer (like a speddedometer) in  
accordance with the bandwidth value


I kinda got Flex controlling this loaded swf movie clip, but only  
if the user clicks on it. Like an event that catches the movie clip.


but that still doesn't do the job :o

any thoughts would be well appreciated:




//it's called when its respective state is reached
private function getMeter():void
{
   meter.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, updateMeter);
}

/*
  it finds the movie clip, and assigns it an object

*/


private function updateMeter(e:MouseEvent):void
{
   //this works, but I needed it to be reachable without a click!
   var swfMovieClicked:Object = e.target;
   swfMovieClicked.gotoAndStop(_meterValue);

   //the loaded swf movie clip is not found through the  
SWFLoader object at all:

   //meter.meter_mc.gotoAndStop(_meterValue);
}
