Re: [flexcoders] Popup focus issue, seems very broken

[Alex Harui]

Try using an Alert instead of the TitleWindow.  If that works, then there is 
probably code in the titleWindow causing problems, otherwise it is probably 
code in the app.  You can try tracing out focusIn/focusOut events to see what 
is going on.

I have a very odd issue in my Flex3 app.

I have a popup that is an mx:TitleWindow, instantiated with the
popupManager in the normal way. It has a number of buttons, and a
canvas. On creationComplete, an additional control is dynamically
added to the canvas using childCanvas.addChild().

Everything works perfectly, *except* that the focus does not arrive in
the popup; it remains in the background application window (which is
blurred out as normal). On tabbing, I can observe the blue focus
rectangle moving about the old top-level window.

This doesn't always happen- but in about 75% of cases it does. If I
manually set the focus into the popup (e.g into a textfield or a
button), then tabbing continues to only have an effect in the wrong
window.

I've tried explicitly setting the focus in the creationComplete method
(setFocus), both in the popup and from the outer container but no
dice. I've tried making the added component trivially simple, and it
still seems to cause it to break.

Any good ideas, or is this just terminally broken?

Hi,
 You can use
Application.application.width
Application.application.height

to set the width and height so that toolbar will be visible to click close

RE: [flexcoders] PopUp databinding - possible?

[Tracy Spratt]

Sure.  In the pop-up, define a bindable variable, say

[Bindable]private var  _app:MyMainAppFileName;

 

In a creation complete handler, assign:

_var = Application.application as MyMainAppFileName;

 

Now you can bind to any bindable property in MyMainAppFileName

 

If that is backwards to what you want, then I advise dispatching events from
the Pop-up.  Remember, binding is just an event mechanism that is created by
the compiler.

RE: [flexcoders] PopUp vs other containers

[Tracy Spratt]

Just as you say, use a pop up when you need a component that is above the
rest of the app, and perhaps needs to be moved.

 

You can do the same this with other components, but PopUps save you a lot of
coding.

re: [flexcoders] Popup a panel in new browser window

[Wally Kolcz]

Use mx.managers.PopUpManager and then use either addPopUp (if 
in a component)  or createPopUp (if creating it on the fly) 
. 

Once you create or added a popup, use CenterPopUp(this) to have it center in 
the screen or else it will pop up at 0,0

bubbles is false by default.

It's not the popups that's the problem, it's the fact that you're not
listening for the event on the popup object itself.

If you did this:

  popup.addEventListener(...)

... it would work, without bubbles set to true.

RE: [flexcoders] Popup window close button fails

[Tracy Spratt]

It is not automatic.  The button just dispatches the close event.  You need
to define a close event handler. And in that do
PopUpmanager.removePopUp(this).

 

Though  more often, I just dispatch a custom named event, and have in a
listener/handler in the component that created the popup, and in that
handler, I get what data I need from the popup on close, like status(ok,
cancel) and value if any, then call PopUpmanager.removePopUp(event.target).

Hi Tracy,

Thanks for the explanation. I knew the close event was fired. But I guess I
thought the default close event also called the PopUpManager.

Maybe it's me, but I think the Lang Ref could be a little clearer about
this.

So I have a ViewStack with history management enabled (and enabled in
the Application tag).

This enables the user to click the browser's Back and Forward buttons
while in the application and it will move the user back or forward
through each screen they've visited.

Now if one of those screens opens a popup window, clicking the Back
and Forward buttons still cycles through each screen in the browser
history but the popup stays on the screen! (you can see the views
changing behind the popup as you move back and forth)

Ideally the popup window should disappear once you hit the Back button
and come back when you hit the Forward button, but is this even possible?

Hmm, I don't know.  I always dispatch my own named event when closing a

Subject: [flexcoders] Popup - listening to close

 

Here is code:

var popupWindow:TitleWindow = new TitleWindow;
popupWindow = showPopupWindow(boxingArea, jobMaintenance);
popupWindow.addEventListener(close, jobActions);

public function jobActions(event:Event):void 
{
trace(event.target);
}

I am getting into jobActions when I click on Popup's close button but I 
am not getting in there when I click on a regular Button (in popup) 
with code:
click=PopUpManager.removePopUp(this)
This click closes the Popup window but no close event is triggered.
Is that right?

Thanks

josh,

i want the scrollbar to appear on the popup not the app.  is this
easily done?  any ideas?

You need to force the popup to not be bigger than the browser window
with maxHeight or something similar. Popups that are too big won't
cause a scrollbar to appear on the application because in the display
list they're parented by systemManager, not the Application itself.

Re: [flexcoders] popup timeout

run its 
entire 2 seconds each time...

make sure u remove the event listener too , u keep repeating by adding them 
every time but you never remove them when they are done.

Re: [flexcoders] popup timeout

[Josh McDonald]

I would (and do) just use a new instance of the fade effect, and remove the
popup (or set visibilty = false, effects=[]) on effectComplete or whatever
event is generated when the effect ends. Fade lets you set both a fade time
and a start delay.

RE: [flexcoders] popUp property null on creationComplete

The popup isn't created until just before the OPEN event, so I'd listen
for that and set the itemrenderer then.

RE: [flexcoders] PopUp Containers and Scrolling Issues

That didn't quite make sense to me.  The taller box is usually the one
that gets scrollbars.  Set minHeight=0 on whatever container you want to
have the scrollbar.

ok, I have two VBoxes in my popup. and if the content on the left Vbox
is greater than the hieght of the popup window a Vscroll bar should
be present. So, I only want the VBox on the right to scroll, not all
the popup content. 

When I change the mx:TitleWindow verticalscrollpolicty=off NO
Vscrollbars are allowed, even if at a local level in the VBox i enable
the VScrollpolicy. anyone know how to get around this?

 

RE: [flexcoders] popup a module

Hmm, hadn't noticed that.  That's because the module is the popup and parents 
the title window.

I guess I'd copy the dragging logic from Panel.as into the module.

Write back if you have troubles doing that.

It seems that the new window just come and go but cant be dragged away.
I tried too the sample that have ShareCode and put the 2 managers

I am having some trouble with a popup window.  Here is the popup code:

 var pwWindow:IFlexDisplayObject = PopUpManager.createPopUp(this,
WinChangePassword, true);

}

 

if I call it from a Link Button I get a Can't Access Property of Null

However, when I call it from the ObserveValue Component I am using, it
works fine.

Also, when i check the debugger in both cases it shows pwWindow = null.
(I am not sure what it is supposed to be.)

I think I figured it out.  Because I am using the Cairngorm Model  
Locator pattern to control the popup state (thus the ObserveValue  
class) I need to be very strict about not trying to call popups  
directly.  In this case, when I called the popup via a direct  
function call, I was not updating the model and thus there was a NULL  
value on the model that would have otherwise been set.  When the  
popup opened from a direct call, it saw this NULL value and thew an  
error.  My mistakeI need to stick with my pattern for better or  
for worse  It is so tempting to take short cuts though!

Thanks for the help though.

Re: [flexcoders] popup menu icons duplicated

Yeah, I ran into this one. I'm going to bet that you're setting the
dataprovider of the popupmenubutton with Object objects (as opposed to XML
or something else). There's a bug in the component. Try setting the type
property of the Object to an empty string.

So your code might look like this:

var obj:Object = new Object();
obj.type = ;
obj.label = measure angle;
obj.icon = angleIcon;

That part that says obj.type =  is the important part. Yeah, you shouldn't
have to do this, it's a problem with the MenuItemRenderer class. If you want
to dig in, take a look at the commitProperties of
mx.controls.menuClasses.MenuItemRenderer. I suppose this should get reported
as a bug, but it's saturday night for christ sake, time to go drinking.

any ideas?

Re: [flexcoders] PopUp Windows 50% Transparent???

[Michael Schmalle]

 I guess I really need to study up on Styles a bit more As far as base styles, check out the Flex Style Explorer. In about 10 minutes you will have a thorough understanding of the style implications on each of the base components.

I would have thought that Benoit's suggestion was the one I was looking for, but it was actually Brendan's code that did the trick.

It's weird, because I would have thought a hard-core property of borderAlpha sounded much more appropriate for what I was trying to fix - and not a Style.

I guess I really need to study up on Styles a bit more - because it's looking as if all the fine tuning  tweaking required to make RIA's really look good, will be the result of understanding  properly applying Styles.

Hello All,

Every time I create a popup, it's transparent around the entire border area.
I even tried using code, to force the Alpha value - and it still insists on showing the application residing one layer below.

Is this by design, and is there a way I can inhibit this behavior??

Re: [flexcoders] PopUp from within a class

[Doug Arthur]

Yea, I'm going to need some help. I ended up using: 

Application.application.callLater(parseOrders, args); 

parseOrders is a new function where I basically broke out the loop into a seperate call to the above listed code. This still did not display my popup before the loop properly. Maybe i'm not doing it right?

for each(var vendorOrder:VendorOrder in vendorOrders){
 var args:Array = new Array();
 args.push(vendorOrder);
 Application.application.callLater(parseOrders, args);}

private function parseOrders(vendorOrder:VenorOrder):void {
 // do what was in my loop originally instead of callLater()...
}

I'm working on the same thing as in another thread about a 'Please Wait...' type of thing, but I want to put a progress bar and do setProgress(n, x); where n is the incrimented number in the loop and x is the total loop count. 




Thanks!

Re: [flexcoders] PopUp from within a class

Don't create the class. The PopUpManager 
creates it for you.

var tw = PopUpManager.createPopUp ( 
Application.application as DisplayObject, TitleWindow, true);
var txt:Label = new Label();
txt.text = "This is a test.";
tw.addChild(txt);

RE: [flexcoders] PopUp from within a class

[Tracy Spratt]

Use callLater() to start the loop. That will
give the ui a chance to update before the heavy processing begins. If you have
heavy processing going on, like in a loop, the UI will not redraw until the
loop is done. To change this you need to break the loop up into smaller bits
and use callLater() to get the ui to update.



Jesse helped me with this a year or so
ago. I couldnt find his example any more. If you need more help I will
try.

Re: [flexcoders] Popup parameters un flex 2

Hi,

Why are you typing the return as Object?

Object does not have id nor serviceName ;-)

Can you do;


var ref:PopUpForms = PopUpForms(PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, PopUpForms,true));

ref.id = id;

ref.serviceName = action;

Re: [flexcoders] Popup Issue

[David Harris]

>From what I see...

you code:

function testTable(){var cReports:TitleWindow = TitleWindow(popupWindow
(MyTest,false));}

The third argument is a flag to indicate if the PopUp is Modal or not.
You have false in there, so if you change that to true, it will be Modal

EG:

function testTable(){var cReports:TitleWindow = TitleWindow(popupWindow
(MyTest,true));}

The problem is: It's meant to be Modal but it's not, and when I close 
it (it has a handled close button in the TitleWindow) the underlying 
main application is frozen. 


Any Help would be most appreciated.

Duplicate them exactly and make sure they both

the difference.

I am trying to create a popup window in my application.



Its not working.



I have two buttons that both create a PopUp. The Buttons are
right next to each other.



One works and the other one doesnt.



Each button calls a function.



The functions are right next to each other on the same AS
page.





Here is the code:





!In application page 

mx:Button id=newMessageButton
label=New Message click=NewMessage() /

mx:Button id=PrintButton
icon=@Embed('printer.png') click=PrintMessage() /







!In Actionscript for application 



function NewMessage() {


var popup = mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, NewMessage, true,
{deferred: true});


//popup.centerPopUp();

}



function PrintMessage() {





var popup = mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, PrintPreview, true, {deferred:
true, TheMessage:messageDetails.text, TheSender:messageFrom.text,
TheDate:mDateSent.text});


popup.centerPopUp();

}





The print button works and creates a popup window as
expected.



The newMessage button does nothing the first time it is
clicked and the second time it is clicked the page goes blank.





WTF?

Re: [flexcoders] Popup component

 My lame solution to this has been replacing this:
 
 view:Login id=login /
 
 with this:
 
 mx:Canvas id=login creationComplete=var popup =
 mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(_root, Login, true, {deferred:
 true, width:200, height:190, x:500, y:200});
 
 /mx:Canvas
 
 and thus loosing the cairngorm structure because Login.mxml must reside
 in the same directory than Index.mxml (using view:Login instead of
 Login does not launch any error but the whole app screen gets white )

I'm sorry I'm not familiar with Cairngorm, but it looks like you just
want to qualify Login with the package name.  i.e. foo.bar.Login
instead of Login.

RE: [flexcoders] popup in subdirectory ?

[Mike Anderson]

Hi Jamie!

(long time no talk, it's me Mike - the ex-Firefly user, off Flashcoders)

In your main application tags, I think you need to add another namespace
entry - like xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml; - you need
another one, to reference the popup directory xmlns:xx=popup.*

Where xx is the prefix YOU choose to use, versus mx that Macromedia
references, to access all their built-in classes, etc.

I am sure I will be corrected on this - but I am confident this is the
overall path you must take, in order to reference files, that don't
reside in the native directory.

Mike

Subject: [flexcoders] popup in subdirectory ?

Hi,

I think this is probably a very basic question - but I'm really having
trouble figuring this out - wonder if someone here can explain...

Basically I've just restructured my project; it started off as a 'demo'
and now it's outgrowing that and I needed to structure it a little
better so...

I now have it broken down in to a logical directory structure...

And it all works except the popups!

In this specific case, the popup screen is in a directory called...
'popups' under the directory in which the current .mxml resides.

The AS script *was*:

var popupScreen:TitleWindow =
  TitleWindow( PopUpManager.createPopUp( this,
 ManageCreditItems,
 true,
 {title: 'Credit Note Items',
closeButton: false, parentComponent: this.itemData},
 false) );


The 'ManageCreditItems.mxml' *used* to be at the same directory level as
this calling code - and it all worked fine.

Now it's in './popup/ManageCreditItems.mxml' and it won't work anymore!

How do I qualify the reference to the popup in order for it to work ?

Thanks,

Jamie.

Add this line at the top of your script.

You could also fully qualify the name when passing it to the
PopUpManager as 'popup.ManageCreditItems'.  Hope that helps.

Re: [flexcoders] popup in subdirectory ?

[Tarik Ahmed]

This is a name space problem. In your mx:Application if you do
a xmlns="popups.*" that should do it I think.

http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/1/flex_builder_en/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=Using_Flex_Builderfile=brady405.htm

Though if you do a xmlns:popups="popups.*"

can you do this:

PopUpManager.createPopUp(this,popups:ManageCreditItems,true,)

? Or popups.ManageCreditItems?

[Mike Anderson]

Oh yes *import* works great too - as us Flash users, are probably more
accustomed to doing it this way.

Avoid loading SWF's; that's the only time I've had weird things happen.

Subject: [flexcoders] Popup windows behaving oddly


We've been having a number of problems with popup windows doing
strange things.

1) They popup behind the window which created them.

2) They pop up in the upper left even though we asked them to be
centered over their parent via centerPopup().


Are there a know sets of tricks to make popups behave well.  Are there
things to avoid?

Subject: [flexcoders] Popup only works once



I have an Add Group button in my MXML that calls a method:

public function showAddGroupWindow():Void {
  var popup =
PopUpManager.createPopUp(MovieClip(mx.core.Application.application),
addGroupWindow, true);
  popup.centerPopUp();
}   

In my popup MXML, which is just a simple title window, I have a save
and a cancel button. My cancel button calls the method:

function cancelButtonPressed() {
  this.deletePopUp();
}

The save button is having the same problem...

If I click either button, the popup closes, but the Add Group button
wont open another popup. I've verified that it's still calling the
showAddGroupWindow() method, but for some reason, nothing pops up
anymore. I have a feeling the deletePopUp() isn't fully getting rid of
it... where am I going wrong?

RE: [flexcoders] popup window with custom component ( not extending TitleWindow )

[Erik Westra]

 
WineDetail.mxml There is no property with the name 'PopUpDetail'

The class PopUpDetail, is it in the same folder as WineDetail?
Is the class PopUpDetail in the same folder as the .mxml file with the
application tag in it?

If not, add this line to your script (at the TOP):

import path.to.file.PopUpDetail;

Subject: [flexcoders] popup window with custom component ( not extending
TitleWindow )


I've been working on a Flex application that requires a modal
popupwindow. I have created a PopUpDetail.mxml that uses a Canvas. I
then have another custom MXML component that is also based on a Canvas.
The component is called WineDetail.mxml.

In WineDetail.mxml is a Script block that uses the following AS (
straight from the Flex book ):

--
function openWineDetail()
{
var parentToPopUpOver = this;
var isModal:Boolean = true;
var initObj = {};
var popUp = mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(
parentToPopUpOver, PopUpDetail, isModal, initObj ); }
--

WineDetail is then put into a Repeater object , something like this:

mx:Repeater id=rp
dataProvider={jumboWS.GetWineTop10.result.diffgram.NewDataSet.Table}
WineDetail wineID={rp.currentItem.ID}
winenumber={rp.currentIndex} winedetaillabel={rp.currentItem.NAME}
wineimage={host}Images/wine/wine_{rp.currentItem.ID}_1.jpg xmlns=*
/
/mx:Repeater

note the xmlns attribute. When i click on a WineDetail component, it's
supposed to create a PopUpWindow, but i never got it to work.I'm getting
the following error, among others:

WineDetail.mxml There is no property with the name 'PopUpDetail'

It might be something obvious i'm missing here, but i'm working against
a killer deadline, and this close to find another hack around it...if
somebody has a clue, you may enlighten me :) ( I figured that it's
something as simple as using a Titlewindow instead of a Canvas? )

Thnx

RE: [flexcoders] popup

[Matt Horn]

Miguel, you use the PopUpManager to create TitleWindow 
containers. This is documented in theUsing Layout Containers 
chapterof the Developing Flex Applications book.
