[flexcoders] Re: opening another Window in Flex for commenting on data entered in TextArea compon
The way I would do it is to include an extra text area underneath (Or beside) each of the current text areas for the reviewer to add comments. These text areas would only be visible if a reviewer logged in. Depending on some flags that are populated in the database, you could make one or the other editable/visible at a time (eg. If a reviewer has already added comments, make the comments text area visible but not editable) --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, mike_j95 mike_j95@... wrote: I have a TitleWindow which has some TextArea components where end users(using the application) will enter data to answer some questions.

The reviewer would make comments in second textarea based on the answer(in first textarea) and click a button to save his comments(which would be stored in a MySQL database).

I am talking about the view end user receives when he uses MS-Word to review a document(not how MS-Word implements it). If you have MS-Word installed, you can open it, create a new document in it, type text in it, highlight the text you want to comment about, then choose Review option from the Menu, then select option New comment and you would see a box where you can enter comments. I want to create something like that so a reviewer/end user is more comfortable in using it.
[flexcoders] Re: code out of sync with flash builder
Do you have the debug even if there are errors (Or whatever it is called) turned on? I have only seen this when there are errors in the code so a compile can't complete. In this case Flex will let you debug but use the previous compiled version. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Wouter Schreuders wschreuders@... wrote: Has anyone at least run into this problem before?

[flexcoders] Transparent PNG problems
Hi all, I'm new to flex 4.5 and im trying to show transparent 24b PNG files. I had no problem with this in Flex3. in 4.5 a slim light grey line appears surrounding the transparent contour of the image, making it usless for it's purpose. i just did a normal s:Image source=image.png/ tryed with BitmapImage too with same result. embedding didnt change anything. and the image was exported from photoshop 5.1 any ideas? i could not find much on the net. thank you! -- David Pariente RIA consultor --
[flexcoders] Re: Replacing double slash with a single slash
As I understand it the backslash character is special in both the regex and the replacement string, so it has to be double escaped in both places. That means, for every single backslash you want to match or insert, you have to put *four* backslashes in the regex or replacement string. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Nick Middleweek nick@... wrote: Hi, I'm trying to replace a double slash with a single slash and am having a little trouble, has anyone done this before?

Re: [flexcoders] Errors during build - ASDoc Configuration
Cool. If it really happens exactly every other time, then that is good information to work with. Does it matter if you just restarted the IDE? Does it matter if you did a clean or just saved a file with build automatically on, etc? When you restart your machine? Then you need to determine whether it's the first build or the second build that is suffering - if it's the first then something might be happening out of order and is only there by the time the second build comes. If it's the second then the first might be leaving junk around like hanging on to resources or something. Though I suppose if you're using Flash Builder it shouldn't really be your responsibility to spend hours debugging it.

[flexcoders] Way to determine if an active debugging session is in progress
I need to find out if there is an active debugging session going on. Is it possible? I would like to have it setup to throw an error for the developer who is actively debugging but if it is at runtime I want to show a pop up message. I'm guessing there is possible since debugging goes through a socket connection (I know little about sockets)? This is not asking if the swf is a debug swf. This is not asking if the Flash Player is a content debugger build.
[flexcoders] Calling flex from JavaScript wrapper
Hi Team, I have a question about calling a flex method from JS. The scenario is, if the user closes the window without logging off, I detect the window close from JS and call the appropriate logoff mechanism which is mapped originally for log out button. JS code SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript window.onbeforeunload = clean_up; function clean_up() { var flex = document.${application} || window.${application}; flex.myFlexFunction(); } And in the Flex application I code – import flash.external.ExternalInterface; ExternalInterface.addCallback(myFlexFunction,cleanUp); public function cleanUp():void{ //do the dirty work . This codes are taken from http://board.flashkit.com/board/showthread.php?t=748226 But I find no action being detected. My html wrapper for the application has no visual elements. The whole functioning of the application is entirely in flex. The HTML is just a wrapper for it. Its not working for me. Any views? Cheers, Venkat.

[flexcoders] Re: code out of sync with flash builder
I've had a similar problem. Flash Builder shows me the current source when debugging, but when you try to step through it, it is obviously running a previous version of the source. What fixed it for me is to switch to another project in the workspace, compile it, then return to the main project, and recompile the modules that were screwing up. Hope that fixes it for you too. Interestingly this problem seems to only occur on my new Windows 7 system with the latest Java. My older XP system would crash when running out of Java heap space, but would never go out of sync.
Re: [flexcoders] Re: code out of sync with flash builder
Yeah... I'm aware of that setting. under windowpreferencesrun/debuglaunchingContinue launch if project contains errors. I've set that to prompt but it's not the cause of the problem. I see there's another setting Luanch operation mine is set to launch the selected resource or active editor. If not launchable: launch the associated project instead of launch the previously launched application What is yours set to?
