[flexcoders] Bug in ByteArray?
So I have some code (below) that clones an arrayCollection. It works the first
time through doesn't work the next time through. The objects that are getting
cloned are a custom object called Node. So my AC has a list of Nodes in it.
The first time the clone returns an Object of type:Object (so pass in Nodes out
comes Objects). The second time through I pass in another list of Nodes and
out comes Nodes. Not what I want.
Why would the code below spit out two different things? I have debugged this
and walked it through and yes I know nodes are going in each time.
private function clone( source:Object ) :*
{
var myBA:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
myBA.writeObject( source );
myBA.position = 0;
return( myBA.readObject() );
}
private function buildTreeCollection(
ac:ArrayCollection ) : void
{
var newAC:ArrayCollection = new
ArrayCollection( clone( ac.source ) );
// add checked to all leaf objects
for each( var o:Object in newAC ){
o.checked = 0;
}
_sortedTreeCollection = new TreeCollection(
newAC );
// add checked to all folder objects
for each ( var ob:Object in
_sortedTreeCollection ) {
ob.checked = 0;
}
trace('');
//myTree.dataProvider = tree;
if( _sortedTreeCollection.length 0 ) {
typeTree.visible = true;
typeTree.includeInLayout = true;
}
//this.height = Math.max( 150,
typeTree.measureHeightOfItems(0, _sortedTreeCollection.length) + this.height );
}
[flexcoders] Re: bytearray.readObject doesn't convert my objects back
How would I go about doing that? Would I need to null out the transform object first before converting to a bytearray? Here is my object structure I am trying to save: Data NodeDatalist (list of nodes like an array) Node (think graph or tree vertice) Nodedata ( children nodes, parent node) Visualdata ( transform etc) Node (think graph or tree vertice) Nodedata ( children nodes, parent node) Visualdata ( rendered, transform etc) n..

[flexcoders] Chart inside a datagrid
Wondering if anyone has seen a tutorial or example of how to place a chart inside a dataGridColumn?

Maybe its just as easy as sending the dataGridColumn an array of values to plot on the chart? Thx for you suggestions.

Wondering if anyone else has this issue or if its a bug or if flex isn't capable?

So you end up with these pointed corners sticking out of rounded corners. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance, Jason
[flexcoders] Re: custom Panels original size
Gordan, the code you provided has one small issue, since
originalHeight is set everytime minimize is called it resets the
minimum each time.
Is there a way to set the minimum size on creationComplete or another
function inside the custom panel?
So for instance:
protected override function createChildren(): void {
super.createChildren();
originalHeight = this.height;
trace(originalHeight);
}
I tried the following, but it didn't work. When the trace is called
it returns 0 so I assume this in createChildren isn't refering to
the my custom Panel or is it something else?
This might be another subject, but can you do this parent.this.height?

[flexcoders] Re: custom Panels original size
Ok, figured it out. I call my getSized() function, which captures the
original height inside the updateDisplayList.
For those who want a resizeable panel here is what I came up with
using others work. I haven't found any bugs with it yet. If you run
across anything let me know.

I have made some enhancements so that the resizing code is in the

The issue is that I am using two of these custom panels per view, one
on top of the other. So if you minimize say the top customPanel1 the
lower customPanel2 expands automatically to take up the space (which
it should do), but if you then try to minimize the bottom customPanel2
(so both are minimized) it will set the bottom customPanel2's
originalHeight to the expanded version (caused when it expanded to
take up the extra space).
That probably confused you..what I am trying to do is capture the

To make it smaller I am using minimize=getStyle('headerHeight')

height to the Panels child Vbox component, but it didn't work either.

Thanks for the quick response.
I know its possible to loop over the XMLList, but I am not sure how
to
do it. I have used the XMLListCollection, but then when I try to use
the XMLListCollection as a data provider I have use the @ symbol
as
you suggested below.
Using the @ cause more problems because when try to make my app
dynamic I have to try things like [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and it gets
messy when I have to try to capitalize things like
[EMAIL PROTECTED]({somevar}).
So if you could help with how to loop through the XMLList it would
make my code much cleaner.

[flexcoders] Re: array of arrays and XML
Well the reason is because when trying to get to the
hitdata.item.(object) I cause problems when using XML. Since
everything in my app is dynamic I cannot hardcode the hitdata.item
statements in my dataTipformat function. So I cannot use
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have tried
hitdata.item.(@ + someVar), but it doesn't work. I would be more
than happy to use XMLlist or XMLListCollection, but it causes problems
with hitdata and other thingsseems to cause more work later on
though it saves me from having to turn it into an ArrayCollection.
If you can tell me how to make XMLlist work using hitData.item
statement I would be greatful.
Thanks, J

Thanks for the quick response.
I know its possible to loop over the XMLList, but I am not sure how to
do it. I have used the XMLListCollection, but then when I try to use
the XMLListCollection as a data provider I have use the @ symbol as
you suggested below.
Using the @ cause more problems because when try to make my app
dynamic I have to try things like [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and it gets
messy when I have to try to capitalize things like
[EMAIL PROTECTED]({somevar}).
So if you could help with how to loop through the XMLList it would
make my code much cleaner.
Thanks, J

I don't do charts yet so you are on your own there.

Subject: [flexcoders] array of arrays and XML
Hoping to figure this out. What I am trying to do is get a
result like
this (ArrayCollection).
public var expenses:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
{Expense: Taxes, Amount: 106976},
{Expense: Rent, Amount: 147776},
{Expense: Car, Amount: 79554},
{Expense: Gas, Amount: 39252},
{Expense: Food, Amount: 128351}
from this XML:
list

bill name=Taxes Amount=106976 customers=25670/
bill name=Rent Amount=147776 customers=25670/

bill name=Gas Amount=39252 customers=25670/
bill name=Food Amount=128351 customers=25670/
/month
/list
Then use it to plot data on a piechart. I am pulling the xml in
via a
httpservice. So I am guessing I need to iterate through the xml and
create an arrayCollection of arrays? But I can't figure that out.
Then how to use the Expenses:arrayCollection as a piechart
dataprovider.
Thanks in advance.

[flexcoders] Viewstack and creation policy
Hello all. I was wondering if I can get some help on a viewstack issue? In my main app file I have an applicationcontrolbar, which contains a combobox. The combobox is being used to navigate my viewstack. In my viewstack I have four custom canvas components. So something like the following (short hand). VS Canvas1 LineChartA/ /Canvas1 Canvas2 LineChartB/ /Canvas1 Canvas3 LineChartC/ /Canvas1 Canvas4 LineChartD/ /Canvas1 VS/ The viewstacks initial selectedIndex is set to 0 which is Canvas1. The Canvas1 shows my LineChart without the linedata, so no actual graph. If you use the comboBox navigation to go to any of the other 3 canvas's the graphs show. The LineChart is getting its data via binding. I am assuming it has to do with the creation policy, but I have tried using creationPolicy=all and creationIndex, but no luck. I have tried swaping canvas1 and canvas2 in the view stack (so canvas2 is the initial view), but then canvas2's graph is blank and canvas1 is showing corretcly. Any ideas? Thanks, in advance.

[flexcoders] Re: Viewstack and creation policy
I have done some digging and it appears it is that my dataprovider of all the canvas's (Canvas1, Canvas2, etc...), which is the same for all four canvas's isn't being created before my viewstack is created. Is there a way to tell the Viewstack to wait to be created last and then tell Canvas1 inside the Viewstack to be created 2nd? I put another canvas in front of Canvas1 and so Canvas0 and now Canvas1 correctly populates with the data. J --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, jnewport [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello all.

Anyone know what it is?

[flexcoders] Re: Format a datatip.
Ok, I have the revenue part working and formatting it. Thank you.
But, I cannot get the MONTH to show. Month is my categoryField.
categoryField=month:
Below is what I have for my formatDataTip, but I cannot seem to find
the MONTH. I have tried useing hitData.element and hitData.item.
I thought it would be LineSeriesItem(hitData.chartItem).xValue, but
that just gives me 0, 1, 2, n (guessing it is the position of data
in the ArrayCollection I am using to populate my graph.
Any suggestions?
private function formatDataTip(hitData:HitData):String{
//var months:String = LineSeries(hitData.element);//Not working
var name:String = LineSeries(hitData.element).yField;
var revenue:Object = LineSeriesItem(hitData.chartItem).yValue;
return b+name+/bbr+months+br+cf.format(revenue);

Subject: [flexcoders] Format a datatip.
I was wondering how to format a datatip for a LineChart. If I use
showDataTips everything looks good but the amounts are not formatted
to $##,###. I have created an ArrayCollection that looks like the
following.
private var expensesAC:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection( [
{ Month: Jan, Texas: 2000, Utah: 1500, Kansas: 450 },
{ Month: Feb, Texas: 1000, Utah: 200, Kansas: 600 },
{ Month: Mar, Texas: 1500, Utah: 500, Kansas: 300 },
{ Month: Apr, Texas: 1800, Utah: 1200, Kansas: 900 },
{ Month: May, Texas: 2400, Utah: 575, Kansas: 500 } ]);
I have tried to use cf.format(); on the data before its put into the
ArrayCollection, which works so I get something like this.
private var expensesAC:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection( [
{ Month: Jan, Texas: $2,000, Utah: $1,500, Kansas: $450 },
But then Flex won't plot the dataguessing it doesn't like the
$.
So I am trying to use a function like this
private function formatDataTip(hitData:HitData):String {
var month:String = hitData.item.DONTKNOWWHATSHOULDGOHERE
but I don't know what should come after item. I have tried to do a
trace(hitData.item.toString), but I get object object. Is there a
way
to trace out whats in the hitData.item?

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

just your one line. You rock! If you worked for me you just got a
$1000.00 raise.
Thank you, Jason

The syntax you are using is a bit odd:

i++){
tempDistricts[i] = (xmldpAddress.month

I would write it (in your code style) as:
NumberOfDistricts = xmldpAddress.month[0].region.length();
tempDistricts = new Array();
var i:int = 0;
for (i = 0; i NumberOfDistricts; i++)
{
tempDistricts[i] =
[EMAIL PROTECTED]();
}
districts = tempDistricts;
However its probably easier to do something like this (didnt test):
districts = new XMLListCollection(xmldpAddress.month[0].region);
with
mx:List id=districtList dataProvider={districts}
labelField=@name
/
districts should be desclared as a XMLListCollection.

[flexcoders] Drag and Drop from a List to a LineChart
Rookie here! I was wondering if some can take a shot at solution on this? I am trying to drag a list of states from a List to a LineChart and then have the LineChart display the data for each USState dragged in. I am thinking there are two ways: #1 Put the each USStates data into an Array from an xml file, which I tried but then the List show all the data instead of just the name of the USState (so you get Texas: 423, 367, 987 instead of just Texas). This, if I can get it to work would be easiest since the Array containing the USState data would just populate the LineChart easily. #2 The second option, which I am using, is pull in the xml and placing into USStates Arrays (TexasArray, MontanaArray,etc...). Then I am creating a seperate Array with just the name of the State (Texas, Montana,etc...) I have all this working, but of course when I drag selected List items and drag them into the LineChart it is just dragging in the name of the State (eg. Texas) not any data to plot on the LineChart. The problem I am have using #2 is how can I tell the line LineChart to grab the appropriate USState data Array from the name of State passed by the drag and drop. So the List passes the LineChart Texas and the Linechart plots Texas: 423, 367, 987. Please tell me there is a way to do #1? Let me thank you ahead of time for your help.

Either of those two examples would be fine. Can you take this a step at a time? Can you get data into a datagrid at all? I don't do much charting, but can the line chart use the same dataProvider that the data grid does? Hard code a sample XML structure into an XML variable. Structure your code so that the two controls are bound to a global variable dataProvider, probably an XMLListCollection. Code a function that uses an e4x expression against the XML variable to set the value of that collection (use the collection API). The slider dataProvider needs to ba a different var. A different e4x expression can return that collection or XMLList from the same base XML data On the change event of the slider, call the function that uses the e4x expression to set the dataProvider for the grid and chart, filtering for the data you want. You haven't said what problems you have been having. Or posted any code, so I can't be more specific. What debugging techniques do you have available?

Just use evt.result. Use lastResult only in binding expressions.
Also, in the resultHandler (your argument is typed correctly, Jamie's
example is not), do:
trace(event.result.toXMLString())
To see exactly what your XML is. I think you will find that result is
already at the root node, so your would have:
var monthData:XML = event.result.month;
Would give you an XMLList or Month nodes. To use that for a list
dataprovider, do:
var xlcDP:XMLListCollection = new XMLListCollection(monthData);

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: ArrayCollection returns object Object
I'll take my best attempt.
1) Create the XML variable you will need to map the HTTPService object
data to and create a function that will handle the result call of your
HTTPService call.
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
[Bindable]
private var xmldpAddress:XML;
public function LoadXML(evt:Event):void {
xmldpAddress = new XML(evt.target.lastResult);
//Do other result-driven actions here
}
]]
2) In your HTTPService call a function to handle the result event:
mx:HTTPService
id=feedRequest
url = [PATH GOES HERE]
useProxy=false
resultFormat=e4x
result=LoadXML(event)
/
3) So when you trigger the request via feedRequest.send() function
from either the creationComplete part of the application or a button
event, it calls the service, the service calls your result function
and the result function maps that service data object into an XML
format.
4) As a result, you can then use dot notation for the XML in any
dataprovider you want.
mx:TextInput x=139 y=143 width=151 id=txtProv
editable=false enabled=false text=[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
At that point, the help page under Programming ActionScript 3.0 Core
ActionScript 3.0 Data Types and Classes Working with XML
Traversing XML Structures should give you all the examples you need to
bind the particular data you're looking for.
Good luck!

Regarding trace, I am pretty sure that whatever you mean by ...told it
to print to a text area through binding., won't work. Trace() sends
output to the flashlog.txt file. Seting up tracing involves creating /
modifying the mm.cfg file. Its documented in the developer's guide.
Instead of tracing you can use Alert, or you can assign whatever data
you want to the textArea.text property. Or you can use the debugger.
Whatever debugging method you choose, you want to be able to see exactly
what your result object contains. Otherwise you just have to guess
until you get the references right.
One major benefit of XMLListCollection (or ArrayCollection) is that
their methods, like addItem(), emit the necessary events to make the
Flex controls visually update. XMLList and Array methods do not.
Also, if you are using e4x with XMLLIstCollection, at any point you need
you can trace out myXMLItem.toXMLString() and see exactly what the
current node contains.
To use these classes you must import them:
import mx.collections.XMLListCollection;

[flexcoders] Re: ArrayCollection returns object Object
Jamie, thanks for you help. I now have the data being pulled in and
showing in the list. I can't seem to get the nodeName to populate my
list? Any suggestions? Maybe I need to structure my XML differently?
This is what I am trying to do (see the misc tech - Series selection
(drag and drop):
http://flexapps.macromedia.com/flex15/chartexplorer/explorer.mxml?versionChecked=true
The above link is verions flex 1.5., which of course I am using Flex
2. I am also trying to use my xml below though. I am think I might
need to loop through the xml in order to get all the childnode data
into one array or arraycollection? So for instance say I want region
Japan data to be dragable and plot into the graph I would need to
loop through all the xml and put the japan node data into a
JapanArray:Array. Then do this for each region (region = see data in
bottom post; below)?
Or am I over thinking this?
Thanks again for everyones help.
