Greetings- A client has uneven data. One of the series they'd like to chart contains 80 categories but in most cases there are only values in 4 or 5 of the 80 categories, which 4 or 5 change over time. Looks kind of like this (supposing a series with categories A - Z): Group 1 Series Item

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes

2009-03-09 Thread Jim Hayes
I had thought that I'd used the code there to allow users to drag/drop reorder and move tree nodes, but it was quite a long while ago so I may well be wrong. It wasn't perfect, but not bad at all. Also I may have misunderstood what you are looking for. Still, glad it wasn't entirely wasted!

[flexcoders] Best option for implementing a growl like notification system ?

2009-03-09 Thread Arpit Mathur
Hi all, I had a question regarding an AIR utility class that I am trying to finish. The class is pretty simple, it is basically an AIR implementation of the Mac Growl UI (notification windows that pop open on the right edge of the display). Most AIR applications seem to use some implementation of

Having one component with different states or a viewstack with all of the options may be attractive for a few variants, but I'd probably go for instantiating a specific UI interface once it's known which is required. You could either base the UI variants off a common ancestor, or use a common

This has been a problem with Tree for as long as I can remember, that is, especially with empty nodes, how do you select it to drop into? Alex said, Open but empty folders have a middle drop zone for dropping into. I wonder how to recognize that zone when you are over it? The drag indicators

You could do what MindManager does and make the left half of the node dropzone for reordering, and the right half for making the node a child of the drop node. Not sure how easy it would be to implement that though in Flex. On 3/10/09, Jim Hayes j...@primalpictures.com wrote: I had thought that

I'd suggest using XML all the way through, instead of converting XML to ArrayCollection first, then trying to convert it back. What RPC protocol are you using for server communication? What is your resultFormat? Tracy Spratt, Lariat Services, development services available _ From:

RE: [flexcoders] DropDown selectedIndex problem

2009-03-09 Thread Tracy Spratt
Often when you programmatically assign a dataProvider to a control, you need to wait for the control to render before operating on its visual elements. So save the desired index from the loop, then use callLater() to actually set the selectedIndex. Tracy Spratt, Lariat Services, development

2. Assuming that the item renderer only needs to manipulate the text of the renderer, is example 1 - extending DataItemGrid - (below) a good way to do it? (I've never written one before, so I'm just checking) No, for text only, use a labelFunction; instead of a custom itemRenderer. Thanks! Did
