[flexcoders] Re: Weird XMLListCollection behaviour - items won't remove

2009-02-19 Thread flexcoder2008
Got it working!! I stepped through the code and could see that an index of -1 was being thrown from Sort.as. I had applied a Sort to these XMLListCollections at an earlier point in the application's lifecycle. I had to call .refresh() on the collection before I remove the item and somehow

Re: [flexcoders] ColumnChart - Data tip target for invisible column

2009-02-19 Thread Richard Rodseth
Thanks, but it's the *target* I'd want displayed, not the tip itself. Also, as I indicated in my follow up, the column chart actually does display the target and tip when you roll over the empty column, but I have this other issue with the stacking of non-unique categories. On Thu, Feb 19, 2009

[flexcoders] Re: Loading modules from within AIR

2009-02-19 Thread skuteboarding
Hi, I've managed to find the problem. I was using the File.url and the File.nativePath properties to try to load module. If you change it to using just a relative path, i.e. plugins\\myplugin.swf it works just fine. Looks like it doesn't like paths like C:\... and file:///C:/... Cheers, Mark

Re: [flexcoders] Why cant I use mouseOver() in Image class, but using mx:Image tag, I can?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Repeaters and Referencing Component IDs

2009-02-19 Thread Tracy Spratt
I'd have to test it to know for sure, but I was just theorizing on why you were not able to access the id array for the image. I could further theorize that the image tag, being a child of the repeated container, is treated differently by Repeater than the container, but that is theorizing to

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Using an itemRenderer in a grid and rendering glitches

...override the set data protected function - but what do I change?... that depends on what your renderer does. I suggest that you start with a renderer that someone else has written and modify it to meet your purposes. Either that or start reading up on renderers. Some of the key parts you

Capabilities.languages should give you the preferred languages of the user running the app, not for the compilation. http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/flash/system/Capabilities.html#languages If it is playing up, you can always get it via Javascript:
