DataGrid DataProvider Excel export in iPad
Hello, We are trying to export data to excel and open the excel in iPad. We were able to give a 'Open with..' option, but when user selects 'Excel' app to open the document, it needs xlsx format and not xls. We used AS3XLS and it doesn't have xlsx support. Came across this link, which supports xlsx but there isn't usage example. It has another library which is FZip, which isn't there in the source: https://github.com/flexmonster/fl2xls/tree/master/com/flexmonster/xls Has anybody used that library or any other library which can give xlsx exported file?

AW: Showcase for IOs and Android skins?
Hi, Yeah, I already saw that, but is there any work put into IOs or will this be started as soon as the Android stuff is finished? Well as the customer wants Android now and IOs later I think I could whip up a rapid prototype using the android skins and hopefully show off how fast you can do stuff like this with Flex ans simply use the older IOs skins that are already available as a start.

Yes Chris, that is my plan. I am very close to merging the new Android skins into the develop branch. So, that should almost certainly go out with the next release. I plan to start with the iOS 7 skins soon after that. Well as the customer wants Android now and IOs later I think I could whip up a rapid prototype using the android skins and hopefully show off how fast you can do stuff like this with Flex ans simply use the older IOs skins that are already available as a start. Sounds like a good plan. You could perhaps use the TourDeFlexMobile code available in the flex-examples git repo as a starting point for your prototype. All the best for your new gig!

RE: Design tools for creating Flex 4 skins
I have found inscape to be very good. FXG is a broken format afaik as flash,
illustrator, and flex seem to all do different things depending on the version.
The route I then chose was to go with SVG. Flex's native support of SVG
initially was a bit lacking so we developed a component to better support that.
Once vector SVGs were handled well, it has been easy to make vector based
skins in either Illustrator, or Inkscape (the only 2 I tried). When saving the
svg from inkscape, as as Optimized SVG.
Following is the VectorImage I use for displaying SVG's in flex. Some of this
code was borrowed from a stack overflow answer, and a lot was modified to make
it work in our use cases. Good luck!

Debugging application with modules

Number one reason is that the modules are not compiled with the -debug flag.

Re: Design tools for creating Flex 4 skins
How is FXG broken? Do you mean when you paste it into each of these
different places they all render differently? If that's true that's because
they are converting to their own internal representation. Flash Catalyst
was great at cleaning up the exported FXG from Illustrator. I would create
a vector in Illustrator, go to save (as FXG) and copy the FXG to the
clipboard, then in FC paste and it would pop open a dialog that let you
choose how to handle the import. For example, it would rasterize some
things if you didn't tell it not to.
But I agree that it would not always look the same as the original in
Illustrator. I think FXG is supposed to be better than SVG (at least 1.0
SVG).

Re: Design tools for creating Flex 4 skins
Use Flash Catalyst to clean up and optimize the FXG. There was actually a command in the context menu to optimize the graphics. It was pretty good at this for most of my cases.

I wrote this tool [1] that cleans up FXG created by Illustrator. I have
been using it successfully for my personal projects and for the Android 4.x
skinning I have been working on for Apache Flex.
The tool does the following:
1. For each Symbol in the Symbols library, creates a new .FXG file
2. Removes all unnecessary AI related stuff
3. Removes unnecessary nested Groups.
I hope others will find this tool useful as well.
Thanks,

flash, illustrator, and flex seem to all do different things depending on
the version. The route I then chose was to go with SVG. Flex's native

easy
to make vector based skins in either Illustrator, or Inkscape (the only
2 I
tried). When saving the svg from inkscape, as as Optimized SVG.

Nice! I have had to manually remove all of that whenever I create a new

I wrote this tool [1] that cleans up FXG created by Illustrator. I have
been using it successfully for my personal projects and for the Android 4.x
skinning I have been working on for Apache Flex.
The tool does the following:
1. For each Symbol in the Symbols library, creates a new .FXG file
2. Removes all unnecessary AI related stuff
3. Removes unnecessary nested Groups.
I hope others will find this tool useful as well.

Re: Design tools for creating Flex 4 skins
BTW There is an open source FXG tool online here,
http://fxgeditor.7jigen.net/. I was hoping to incorporate this into Radii8
to allow it to create skins. Basically, when you double click on a
component in Radii8 the jigen editor would open (in the app) and you could
modify the skin. When you were done editing, the editor would close and a
new skin would be available to choose from. The jigen editor also creates
the SVG and FXG so both an SVG and FXG skin would be created. Since Radii8
generates both HTML and MXML from whatever design you give it generating
both the SVG and FXG you would have custom skins for both targets.

RE: Design tools for creating Flex 4 skins
why continue to use a format that requires you to jump through hoops and is
only supported inside a few particular projects? Save yourself the hassle and
just use SVG (1.1+). It makes it a heck of a lot easier to switch between html
and flex development. Now that SVG is working properly in Flex, I see no
reason to continue forward with FXG.
Just my $.02

How is FXG broken? Do you mean when you paste it into each of these different

converting to their own internal representation. Flash Catalyst was great at

Re: Debugging application with modules
Yes, that might be an issue. Here is how a project is structured. It has the main application file and a bunch of mxml files that are in fact modules. So, it's one single project with a number of modules. Can I specify whether each module is compiled with or without debugging info?

Can I specify whether each module is compiled with or without debugging info? I think Flash Builder should be building them all as debug version if they are all ending up in bin-debug. The second most common problem is that the classes you are trying to debug were loaded before the module was loaded and the classes were not a debug version. I would turn off the use of RSLs while debugging. Next most common problem is that the module gets unloaded because nothing is keeping it in memory. The debugger may try to force GC more often and kick the module out sooner. Another potential problem is that the module is old and doesn't match the source code. You can try debugging with fdb. It will halt every time a debuggable module loads. That's how I know a module was not built with debug info in it. -Alex On Tue, Aug 5, 2014 at 5:11 PM, Alex Harui aha...@adobe.com wrote: Number one reason is that the modules are not compiled with the -debug flag.
