[flexcoders] Confirming SDK 3.4 installation

[ynotob]

I've downloaded and installed the 3.4 sdk as documented in the release notes.  
In flex builder preferences "Installed Flex SDKs" I've removed all other SDKs 
and only 3.4 exists there.

But when I run About Flex builder I cannot see any confirmation of which SDK is 
being used.

Any advice on how I can be sure I'm building and using only the new SDK?

[flexcoders] How to preload RSL

[Mayur]

I am facing some problem with RSL.

I have an application contains many different modules.
(One base main swf file 
and
  other module swf files )

I have created RSL of my some Flex Library projects as well as some third party 
open source APIs e.g. Papervision3D, Degrafa etc.

The problem comes of - RSL not available - while loading / instantiating a 
module dynamically run time.

So, I need to have an RSL to be available at the client side, Before my module 
is loaded / ready.


Thanking you in advance.

[Julian Alexander]

Does the screen look like it has focus but when you type it doesn't actually go 
there?

RE: [flexcoders] triggering itemsChangeEffect when using filters on an ArrayCollection's

[Christopher McArthur]

So I investigated this a lot myself a while ago, and you are pretty much out of 
luck. itemsChangeEffect does not work with refresh.

You can fake it a bit, by instead of doing a sort or a filter, manually 
adding/removing/moving elements one at a time in the list, which will trigger 
the itemsChangeEffect. Unfortunately, this only works for very simple changes, 
for complex changes the itemEffect will get confused and do the wrong thing.

For something like sorting a high scores list with a filter, this will probably 
NOT work.

To solve my very similar problem I had to create a brand new custom component 
that did this. I basically recreated the features of List that I needed and 
implemented the animation of them moving around using Move/Fade. The adobe 
sample that has a similar feature you are requesting also does not use 
itemChangeEffect, but instead implements a custom component like I did. 
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/samples/flex_store/


as a side note, I was using itemChangeEffect a lot throughout my ap for the 
simpler lists, but I ended up encountering so many bugs and problems with it 
that I have now completely removed it from my application. Bummer, but 
hopefully they work better in Gumbo when I move to that.

Subject: [flexcoders] triggering itemsChangeEffect when using filters on an

Hey Guys

So what im basically doing is creating a List Component of players scores. The 
dataprovider is type ArrayCollection, and i have applied a sort filter on the 
collection so it sorts by players score, but when the filter is applied and the 
order of the collection changes, the itemsChangeEffect doesnt get triggered, so 
no effects occur. 

So thats the main problem, does anyone have a clue on how to go around this, or 
a fix for it? 

Cheers

[flexcoders] Help setting the selectedChild of a viewstack

[lanekelly5]

I'm trying to grab a portion of the BrowserManager.fragment (I bring it in as 
an object) and then use it to set the selectedChild of a ViewStack.  I'm 
running into a type conversion error.

Essentially this is what I'm trying to do:

o.view contains the portion of my fragment - say it is set to "sytems" with 
(.../index.html#view=systems)

var o:Object = URLUtil.stringToObject(browserManager.fragment);

I then try to set the selectedChild of my ViewStack with:

myVS.selectedChild = o.view;

I get the following:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "sytems" to 
mx.core.Container.

I'm not sure how to make this work.  Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Don't have a lot of time right now, but basically you're looking to massage the

first collection for System ID 1:




Second collection for System ID 2:




Then use 2 series that plot Time and CPU.

[flexcoders] Droppable areas

[bgamblin]

Sorry to bother you guys again, but I never found an answer for my strange 
droppable region problem.

The situation is that I have Boxes that respond to dragOver and dragDrop 
messages. However, the dragOver message doesn't get fired over the whole 
object. The area that generates a dragOver message seems to change based on how 
many children are added to the box. However, even that seems to be inconsistent.

Noting in the source that the dragOver event seems to be called within the 
mouseOver event for dragProxy, I tested the theory by putting a listener on 
mouseOver, which displayed the same problem. So, what defines a valid region 
for a mouseOver event?

Ah, I see.   You're going to have to parse your base data into 2 separate 
dataProviders; one for id 1 and one for id 2.  Then use 2 series based on time 
slot and cpu.  Since the time slots match for the 2 collections, the two lines 
will align.

How do I use the series to point to the CPU attribute in System? I want each
series to be based on the ID attribute and graph out by the CPU attribute.

 In our application, i am trying to set the focus on the login page which has

[flexcoders] Re: language switch on mac does not work?

[seanmcmonahan]

I'd start by ensuring you have the Greek framework resources setup for Flex 
(see: 
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_3:Feature_Introductions:_Runtime_Localization#Huh.3F_French_framework_resources.3F).
  It's possible that pasting works because you are pasting in UTF-8 characters 
but typing won't because Flex expects the locale to be whatever it was when you 
started the app.

I used the linked article to setup a localized app (in English, French and 
German so far) and it was an invaluable resource.

Also, the Mac equivalent of Windows' Alt-Shift is Option-Shift.  In AIR the key 
code is the same: Keyboard.ALTERNATE.

[flexcoders] Re: Errors sorting a arrayCollection ready for searching?

[invertedspear]

I agree that you are probably better doing the backend search, but if you need 
to do it in your app here's the proper way to sort. You just missed declaring a 
sort as a new object (then since you didn't have an object you were trying to 
apply sortfields to an AC) and then you apply that new sort to your AC.

private function private function userHandler(event:ResultEvent):void{
acUsers = evt.result.rows.row;
var sort:Sort = new Sort();
sort.fields = [new SortField("usraccount",true)];
acUsers.sort = sort;
acUsers.refresh();
}

[flexcoders] First Custom Component

[targetplanet]

So I have created my first full custom component and would really like some 
feedback on it.  It replaces a List that uses ItemRenderers.  I hate the Flex 
List component, especially when using variableRowHeight and ItemRenderers.  I 
could never get it to work right, and the size changing scrollbar drove me 
nuts, so here is my ItemScroller component.  It is build fairly specific to the 
app I am building, but could be used elsewhere.  Basically it takes a 
dataprovider and ItemRenderer(Just another component really) and adds instances 
of the itemrender to a scrolling canvas contained in a VBox.  I added paging 
for really large datasets, and controls for that at the bottom.  So it would be 
really great to hear some suggestion on making this ItemScroller better, and 
feel free to use it if you want

So here is the code

http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; creationComplete="init()" 
horizontalScrollPolicy="off" horizontalGap="1" verticalGap="3" 
horizontalAlign="center">

[Event(name="itemSelected", type="flash.events.Event")]




















and here is the implementation

Re: [flexcoders] language switch on mac does not work?

[Fotis Chatzinikos]

To clarify a bit more I am interested in ALT-SHIFTing (in windows - what is
needed on a Mac) into a different language than the default. Foe example
from English to Greek, German, or any other 2nd, 3rd ... language.

If i copy and paste Greek text into a text box this works.. But typing
directly via the keyboard the character set remains English (even though the
browser shows Greek as the input...)

Anybody from Adobe can throw some light?

TIA,
Fotis

[flexcoders] Re: Errors sorting a arrayCollection ready for searching?

[valdhor]

You are probably better off checking if the new user has entered an already 
used account name on the back end and sending through a Yes/No answer to Flex.

Anyway, You should be able to figure out how to do a sort by perusing this 
example:

[flexcoders] Public method access to a SWF, loaded via an HTML, in AIR. Doable..?

[andr01dm]

Hello. :)

I'm building a kiosk app in AIR, in which I need to load an .html page using 
the HTML control, and on that page is a .swf movie.  I've gotten this far 
without a problem.

In the loaded .swf movie there are text inputs which I need to have the user 
type into.  But here's the catch; since this has to operate as a kiosk on a 
touchscreen PC I need to build a touchscreen keyboard in the AIR app and pipe 
the user's input into the text input fields in the loaded .swf

I'm not certain how to approach this, but I can re-code the loaded .swf file, 
so I was thinking of setting up public methods in that .swf which the AIR app 
calls to pass in the user's input from the AIR keyboard buttons.

Is there a way to set up a reference connection between the loaded .swf and the 
containing AIR app, so that they can call one another's public methods?

Or you could turn on the local Apache server, set your flex output directory to

For this problem to be solved, I think you need to find out what value is

RE: [flexcoders] TabNavigator stacking order

[Gregor Kiddie]

Either write a custom TabNavigator which does it (I can't see any
properties or styles for it), or

Just use a Viewstack and TabBar yourself to do the same effect
(TabNavigator doesn't actually add much to just using them
individually).

[flexcoders] triggering itemsChangeEffect when using filters on an ArrayCollection's

[fatmanchan2009]

Hey Guys

So what im basically doing is creating a List Component of players scores. The 
dataprovider is type ArrayCollection, and i have applied a sort filter on the 
collection so it sorts by players score, but when the filter is applied and the 
order of the collection changes, the itemsChangeEffect doesnt get triggered, so 
no effects occur. 

So thats the main problem, does anyone have a clue on how to go around this, or 
a fix for it?  

Cheers

[flexcoders] Errors sorting a arrayCollection ready for searching?

[criptopus]

Don't understand why im getting these errors, can anybody help?

I have just created an arrayCollection from a HTTPService that reads a table 
from my database. I am trying to check to see if the new user has entered an 
already used account name.

After reading a number of articles I discovered searching the arrayCollection 
was possible but only after sorting the collection, this is what I am having 
trouble with.

Here is my code:

private function userHandler(event:ResultEvent):void
{
  acUsers = event.result.response.data.row;
  acUsers.fields = [new SortField("usraccount", true)];
  acUsers.sort=acUsers;
  acUsers.refresh();
}

I am getting the following error at (acUsers.sort=acUsers;):

implicit coercion of a value of type
mx.collections:ArrayCollection
to an unrelated type
mx.collections:Sort.

and also an error at (acUsers.fields = [new SortField("usraccount", true)];)

Access of possibly undefined property
fields through a refrence with static type mx.collections:ArrayCollection.

RE: [flexcoders] I've got a [Bindable] boolean var - can I setup a eventlistener on it?

assuming your in the same class as changeme:

this.changemeWatcher = ChangeWatcher.watch(this, "changeme", 
changemeChangedFunction);

this function will get called every time it changes:
private function changemeChangedFunction(event:PropertyChangeEvent):void

when you are done, make sure to uregister it with
this.changemeWatcher.unwatch();

In  case the flashing vertical line is deeply entrenched, I would like to be

Re: [flexcoders] Error: Problem finding external stylesheet:

My guess is that the path isn't right for your operating system. "/"  
is an absolute path referring to the root of your application, but you
