Re: [flexcoders] Re: New to FlexBuilder Development Tool
Hi Valdhor, Thanks for the input. This worked. I am now trying to take this on a different approach - that is to learn further. After I was able to make the application run (and all errors and warnings resolved), I deleted the project and started the application loading each of the component (mxml, as, ttf, etc...). So far so good, I am getting the hang of it. Thanks for the input.

Here is what I did to get it running (Dirty Hack): 1. Extracted the zip file on my computer (And deleted the .svn directory) 2. Created a new project in Flex Builder named ChartSampler. 3. In Windows Explorer, deleted the ChartSampler. mxml file then copied the unzipped files into the src directory. 4. In the examples/styling/ MXMLStyles. mxml file, commented out the s:Selector stuff (There is no Selector class there) 5. Copied the arial.ttf font from my fonts directory into the src directory. 6. Run the app.mxml file or the ChartSeriesStyles. mxml files. They should both work. This kind of thing happens quite a lot with downloaded examples. You have to figure out where the errors are and fix them. HTH Steve --- In flexcod...@yahoogro ups.com, Angelo Anolin angelo_anolin@ ... wrote: Finally, I got my own FlexBuilder standard edition.

How would I be able to load properly all the components which I have downloaded from the demo site and run it successfully? Am I missing something? Thanks.
Re: [flexcoders] Re: New to FlexBuilder Development Tool
Hi Sean The charting component I got on a separate download (datavisualization.swc and datavisualization_rb.swc) which I included in the Flex project properties.

I think you get a 30 or 60 day demo so if you just installed that shouldn't be the problem. --- In flexcod...@yahoogro ups.com, Angelo Anolin angelo_anolin@ ... wrote: Finally, I got my own FlexBuilder standard edition.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: New to FlexBuilder Development Tool
Thanks for the heads up, although I do some coding already with Flex, although when I compile my app into SWF, I only utilize the command line compiler, whereas the FlexBuilder IDE is quite new to me.
