Hey Everyone, I'm using Doug's PromptingTextInput (just downloaded it from flexlib -- too cool!) and have tried to convert it to a PromptingTextArea without success. Everything compiles just fine, but at runtime, it blows up my app in the place I'm using it. Basically all I've done so far is

[flexcoders] Increasing / Decreasing Font Sizes

2007-01-14 Thread Bruce Denham
Is there any way to increase or decrease all the fonts in an application by a percentage? Because an application has lots of varying fontSizes, it would be really cool to be able to increase all of them by a percentage, so that you could create a cool fontSizing effect with the mouse scroll

[flexcoders] FormItem Override

2007-01-07 Thread Bruce Denham
this, as described here: http://www.uxmatters.com/MT/archives/000107.php I've read other threads and examples in which the FormItems labels can easily be left aligned, but that's less usable than the default right alignment of labels. Can anyone help? Thanks, Bruce Denham

[flexcoders] Re: How to make FormItem labels left aligned?

2007-01-04 Thread Bruce Denham
On a similar note, I'm interested in overriding the FormItem component to place the label and requirement indicator ABOVE the contained input field(s). Reason: http://www.uxmatters.com/MT/archives/000107.php Moving labels left seems straightforward. Hopefully moving it above is equally easy, but

Rather than setting up some kind of binding mechanism to the view state, which still may be better (don't know), I'm doing something like this, in which a Presenter (controller) puts the View in one of its view states (using a public method defined on the View's interface), and the parent loops
