Re: [flexcoders] Is there a way to tell flash NOT to render a certain area?

[Alex Harui]

I’m having trouble picturing an accordion with scrollbars.  But if it did, why 
wouldn’t the scrollbar be tuned for the total number of children?  Why are 
children being added as you scroll?

I am using a horizontal Accordion component with newest items to the right. 
When you scroll left you get to a location where more items are added. As you 
add each item the scrollbar thumb track jumps to the right and then jumps back 
to where the mouse is. This happens every time a new item is added to the 
accordion.

Re: [flexcoders] Is there a way to tell flash NOT to render a certain area?

[Alex Harui]

Flash renders what is visible and on the display list.  UIComponent is 
invisible until creationComplete and theoretically, it and all of its children 
shouldn’t be changing after then.  Or make it visible=false until you know it 
is ready.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex print Without Dialog Box ?

[Oleg Sivokon]

Hi. I remember that MDM Zinc offered this (only for texts, not graphics) at
some point (of course, only for desktop applications). Other than that, I'd
say that if it is a browser based application, it should not be possible,
and if it's a desktop, you should be looking into making some custom wrapper
+ send it serialized data, like, maybe PDF or try to generate PS files...
both ways it looks like rather complex task.

[flexcoders] Flashbuilder 4.0.1 debugger issue?

A colleague is experiencing a problem where our app hangs the browser when
run in the debugger, but not when launched in non-debug mode (from
Flashbuilder). He's the only one on the team who started Flex work since the
release of 4.0.1 so I'm wondering if there are any known problems that could
explain this.

Popup windows are parented by the system manager.

What you would need to do is add an event listener to the system manager
at the application level. When that event fires, you would then inject
it into your component.

[flexcoders] Scroll Parent Canvas from Datagrid Drag and Drop...

[Jitesh Shah]

How can I scroll parentDocument canvas when I perform Drag and Drop in
DataGrid.



First MXML
There is creationComplete Script which adds Second mxml as child




Second MXML (This MXML is used to move rows from one datagrid to another.
Basically displaying 3 column layout where objects can be drag and dopped.
When I drag top level level row to bottom I want ParentDocument canvas also
to scroll, so that user can drop rows in 10th or 20th record which cannot be
displayed on screen)






























Thanx and Regards

[flexcoders] Child of a child custom event handler

[Scott]

 

I've got a parent component that contains a child panel that contains a
popup window.  When the user enters the information and submits, I want
to notify the top parent that a change has been made to refresh the
other components.

 

grandparent->Panel->PopupWindow

 

In the popup window component I have:

 

[CDATA ...[

 

public static const REFRESHEVENT:String = "refreshItems";

 

protected function validateInput():int

{

  var refreshScreen:Event = new Event( REFRESHEVENT, true, true );

 

... validate code

 

  dispatchEvent( refreshScreen );

...

}

 

That should bubble all the way up now...

 

 

In the grandparent component I have:

 

init():void

{

addEventListener( NewReservation.REFRESHEVENT, testevent );

}

 

private function testevent():void

{

  Alert.show("heard it");

}

 

 

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?  I can't seem to find anything in
the debugger to watch this...

 

Thanks!

[flexcoders] Re: The lifespan of flex.

[Netaman]

The question you have to ask is how long will HTML5 be supported before HTML6-8 
takes over the browser, also it looks like not all implementations of HTML are 
the same, so more browser supported third party javascript addons to handle the 
multitude of html5 workarounds...

Flex is a fun language to code in and when it life is over it will create a 
vacuum for the next best application development environment, but by that time 
hopefully there will be direct connects to the brain for application 
development and some of the best development done while we sleep.

(http://www.lamma.rete.toscana.it/models/marevento/wind10m_A_3.png) it
works perfectly but with the one I need (in the code) it doesn't. The
only difference is the image dimension (27.7k the one that works, 477k
the one that doesn't)




 

[flexcoders] Re: Flex Project Management App

[Netaman]

You can create a array of component names such as;
spark.components.Button
spark.components.TextInput
spark.components.CheckBox
spark.components.Label
spark.components.RadioButton
spark.components.DropDownList
mx.controls.DataGrid
spark.components.TextArea
mx.controls.DateField
then pass want you want into this function;
   private function makeElement(className:String, 
COMPONENTID:String):UIComponent {
var objClass:Class = getDefinitionByName( className ) as Class; 

if( objClass != null ) {
var newObject:UIComponent = UIComponent( new objClass() );
newObject.id = COMPONENTID;
newObject.name = COMPONENTID;
return newObject;
} 
else 
return null;
}


then create a switch that looks at the resulting element and add any styles, or 
other properties to the element, or other elements, and add then to your 
container. The dropdown and datagrid will require extra code to provide a 
dataprovider, and you will have to add the default skin by a setStyle, but that 
should get you going in the right direction.

one cavot is that the id is not searchable you will have to search by name in 
the container, if you want to change the element after you add it to the 
container.

I create elements dynamically by quering a database to create the elements 
needed in a flex applicaton, the structure and flow of forms are all in the 
database and I use flex to create the components on the fly...

RE: [flexcoders] The lifespan of flex.

[Gregor Kiddie]

Not quite necro posting... (been on holiday so...)

 

The route back to your client is to show both penetration statistics for
Flash Player 10 versus HTML 5 compliant browsers. The 99% versus ~15% is
a big difference. You might want to point out the ROI of Flex is
drastically higher than HTML ( HTML5 especially as it is new ), the fact
that HTML 5 isn't set to be completely supported for years...

 

The best thing I've seen from friends who have had similar questions, is
when they deliver price estimates for an HTML 5 version versus a Flash
version for something moderately complicated. The differences have been
significant enough for their clients to drop the idea of HTML 5 very
quickly.

[flexcoders] How to make the element of list stressed and having the color blue (other style : bold, inline)

[Nini7016 Nini7016]

Hello 

I have a list :
  

in the dataoprovider , i put an arrayCollection : 
  public var arrayFileUpload : ArrayCollection;

 ...
 arrayFileUpload.addItem(fileRef.name +"  [size : "+ 
fileRef.size+"]");
listFileUpload.dataProvider = arrayFileUpload;
.

I would like that the element of the list "listFileUpload" will be bold and 
stressed 

I don't find a style which can applicate to the dataprovider 


Thanks

Re: [flexcoders] Re: stopping accodion animation

[dorkie dork from dorktown]

i *haven't* been able to get this to work but you may,

accordion.endEffectsStarted();

you can also set the openDuration to 0 when you remove the children. then
set it back after. its a style so use:

accordion.setStyle("openDuration", 0);

[flexcoders] remove border in a list ---make the border of the list invisible

[Nini7016 Nini7016]

What attribut can i add it to do this (remove the border )

Thank you 

NIni
  

[flexcoders] Re: stopping accodion animation

[valdhor]

Have a look at the TweenEvent.TWEEN_END, EffectEvent.EFFECT_END and 
TweenEvent.TWEEN_UPDATE events. They may send you in the right direction.

[flexcoders] Re: any word on smooth mouse wheel scrolling?

[valdhor]

I would add an event listener for the mouse wheel event and then change
the delta (You'll have to experiment with the number to get it the way
you like; You may even need to change the += to a -=)...

addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_WHEEL, onMouseWheelEvent);

private function onMouseWheelEvent(event:MouseEvent):void
{
 event.delta += event.delta < 0 ? -50 : 50;
}
