RE: [flexcoders] DateValidator localization issue

I'm saying that flex should automatically add the internal date format it
uses (dd.mm.) on the errormessage, since the internal formatters
formatstring is always in English! For finnish or any other language this is
no good.

OK, thats an annoying bug I can

I think you will need to subclass
DateValidator to get around it but you could do it like so:



Class MyDateValidator extends
mx.validators.DateValidator

{

 public function
validationError(errorCode:String, defaultMessage:String, subfield:String):Void

 {

 If
(errorCode == wrongLength)


defaultMessage = yourTranslatedMessage;


super.validationError(errorCode, defaultMessage, subfield);

 }

}



Only thing you need to do is catch the
wrongLength error and re-write the error message yourself.

DateValidator localization issue





Hi,

There seems to be a localization problem with the date
validator. If you set the wrongLengthError property for the validator like
Please enter date in the correct form and also provide the
inputFormat property like dd.mm.. The validator validates the
date properly and sets the error message correctly but it also sets the
inputFormat after the wrongLengthError so the errormessage looks like
Please enter date in the correct form dd.mm.



Now the problem arises because Im writing a Flex app
in finnish for finnish people and to them the inputFormat looks like
pp.kk.. Internally I use dd.mm. for Flex to understand
it. The users are wondering what is this dd.mm. that I cant get rid
off because flex adds it to the errorMessage




 Please remove the inputFormat
 from the wrongLengthError errorstring on Flex 2.0 or provide another
 property that can be used as the label for the inputFormat
 !!!
 Is there any way out other than
 to write my own DateValidator?

Hi

Its 
not simple as you describe . even the documentation does have a bug , i've tried 
the code from below and the output is 
[object],[object].

let me 
remind you that my objects are jave objects that come from the server in SOAP

read all your documentation .

Manish 
your example is good for Tree that was built on XML and not from objects , cause 
in my case you would have 
get 
[object Object],1,[object Object] 

my 
Java objectsare very simple they like this 

class SystemFile

 String 
fileName;

}

class 
SystemFolder{
 
 String 
folderName;
 SystemFolder[] 
childFolders;
 SystemFile[]

}

trying

item.fileName.



i

Also check out the

RE: [flexcoders] How to populate tree control from web service re sult (server side java objects)

2005-04-20 Thread Erik Westra





I think that the problem u describe comes from the fast 
that (as far as i know) a tree canhave a dataProvider wich is a XML 
object. The tree dataprovider is used to provider an API to modify the xml more 
easy.

In order to use a combination of arrays and objects to 
fill your tree u need to use a function wich uses the dataProvider API for 
u.

From the top of my head i wrote the code below. Im not 
sure if its bugfree, but u should get the idea. Maybe macromedia has a better 
solution than the one i wrote below. Its also possible to comvert your object to 
xml 1th but in that case the tree component will have to iterate over data 
structure again to do what the function below does.

I hope this helps :)



code

public function fillTree(node, dataProvider_array, 
folderKey_str, nodeKey_str, folderName_str, nodeName_str)
{
 for (var i = 0; i  
dataProvider_array.length; i++)
 {
 var 
currentItem_obj:Object = dataProvider_array[i];
 
varnodeName_str:String = 
currentItem_obj[nodeName_str];

 if 
(nodeName_str)
 
{
 
//its a node, not a folder
 
node.addTreeNode(nodeName_str, currentItem_obj);
 } 
else
 
{
 
//its a folder
 
nodeName_str = currentItem_obj[folderName_str];
 
var newNode:XMLNode = node.addTreeNode(nodeName_str, 
currentItem_obj);
 
fillTree(newNode, currentItem_obj[folderKey_str], folderKey_str, nodeKey_str, 
folderName_str, nodeName_str);
 
fillTree(newNode, currentItem_obj[nodeKey_str], folderKey_str, nodeKey_str, 
folderName_str, nodeName_str);
 
};
 };
};

RE: [flexcoders] string to xml - datagrid

2005-04-20 Thread Erik Westra

To create XML from a string u can just do this:

var xml:XML = new XML(str);

Then u can use an xmlToObject coverter to convert the xml object to an
object wich consists of arrays and objects. I believe there is a
macromedia utility available for this.

[flexcoders] Tile or TileList with resizable children

2005-04-20 Thread violabg2002


Is possible to have a tile component or a tileList one, that have item 
children resizing according to the size of the component itself?

Basically I want to dislpay a range of 1 through 4 images and 
depending on the number of images I want to display them at a size of 
100% of the container. So if there is only one image it will fill the 
container space, with 2 images the space will be divided in 2 columns  
and each image will take 50% of the space; with 3-4 images instead we 
will have 2 columns and 2 rows.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: setting conditional enabled with AS

2005-04-20 Thread Erik Westra

Well in theory u could create a function witch lets u bind properties
yourself, the problem here is that if u want to bind properties
dynamicly u need to know what properties of what objects are bound.



From the top of my head this will look something like:


private function _propChanged(prop_str:String, oldVal, newVal, data_obj)
{
data_obj.receivingObj[data_obj.receivingProp] = newVal;
return newVal;
};

public function bindProperty(receivingProp_str, receiving_obj,
sendingProp_str, sending_obj)
{
sending_obj.watch(sendingProp_str, 
_propChanged, 
{receivingProp: receivingProp_str,
receivingObj: receiving_obj});
};

What Darron says is all true: watch() is more general despite its

this case...

Anyway, I think this discussion provides one more data point for MM
suggesting that AS access to the data binding facility could be helpful.

 The problem is you can only get change events in certain situations.
If 
 I have a variable x and I want to know when it changes, I can't say 
 x.addEventListener(modelChanged) because it doesn't exist in any
data 
 provider.  Not all changes to variables generate change events, which
is 
 why we use watch.  Watch is the way to catch changes to any variable.

[flexcoders] Creating custom components with Flash

2005-04-20 Thread Kristopher Schultz





I want to know how 
to create a custom visual component in Flash that can be used in Flex. However, 
the extremely brief (and confusing), dead-endentry below is the only one I 
could find on thistopicin the documentation. Can someone point me to 
some more helpful information?

=

In Flex 1.0, you could create custom components 
for Flex in the Flash development environment. You modified the components in 
the flexforflash.zip file, and then exported them as SWC files for use in your 
Flex applications. This workflow has been deprecated for Flex 1.5.

You can still create components for Flex using 
the Flash environment, but Macromedia supports only creating components using 
the functionality supported in Flash for Flex 1.0 (including Updaters 1 and 
2).

Do not create new components using the 
flexforflash.zip file for Flex 1.5 in Flash. This functionality has been 
deprecated. The flexforflash.zip file is provided for backward-compatibility 
only.

Hi there,

first of all welcome to the flex world.

Debugger allows you to debug your application. You can set
breakpoints to check some values (locals or application wide), you can
also watch some values.

You can have an overview here
:http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/flex/articles/flexbuilder_debugger.html 

In your result panel you can also monitor network information
(webservices, http requests,RO) and know exactly what has been called,
what params are sended, what is the result and his format.

 Sanjay

I'm going to assume that your question isn't on the how do I load an
image side, but rather specifically regarding animated GIFs.  The short
answer is, we don't currently support animated GIFs.  (I kept hoping to
find time to add it, but as nobody was requesting it as a feature, it
was hard to prioritize.  Sorry!)

However, you can use Flash to import the GIF and export a SWF instead.
(There may be other tools as well, its a pretty simple conversion.)

One of the benefits of using a SWF is that you then have fine-grained
control over the frame sequencing; partial loops, events triggered,
sound sync, etc.

Note of course that if the animation is something that is representable
by vectors, you're better off using Flash to create it.  The raster data
for an animated GIF (even when transcoded into SWF bitmaps) takes a lot
more bandwidth than a vector SWF.

[flexcoders] PopUpManager

2005-04-20 Thread Renaun Erickson

I am creating a PopUp with PopUpManager and am trying to automatically 
close it through a timer function.

Code:
popUpWindow = QuestionConfirmation( PopUpManager.createPopUp( 
this, QuestionConfirmation ) );
popUpWindow.centerPopUp( this.main );

QuestionConfirmation is a custom MXML file that has a TitleWindow as the 
main tag.

QuestionConfirmation:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:TitleWindow xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml;
title={dvTitle} initialize=createPopup()
mx:Script
 ![CDATA[
[Embed(source=assets/icons/courseNode.png)]
var greenCheck:String;
[Embed(source=assets/icons/emblem-gear2.png)]
var redX:String;   
var dvTitle = Congradulations!;   
var correctFlag = true;
var intervalNumber:Number;


function createPopup( text ) {

this.intervalNumber = setInterval( this, interval , 1000 );
}

function interval() {
clearInterval( this.intervalNumber );
this.deletePopUp();
}
   
 ]]
/mx:Script
mx:HBox width=100% visible={!correctFlag}
mx:Spacer width=100%/
mx:Image source={redX}/
mx:Spacer width=100%/
/mx:HBox
mx:HBox width=100% visible={correctFlag}
mx:Spacer width=100%/
mx:Image source={greenCheck}/
mx:Spacer width=100%/
/mx:HBox
/mx:TitleWindow

You'll see the setInterval code up above and it works fine, but upon 
deletePopUp(), the TitleWindow is deleted but leaves a dark grey box 
behind (like it didn't clear the drop shadow).

Is this a bug or am I just missing something here.

Also check out the 
TreeDataProvider API. You should always use the methods specified in that 
API when working with either XML or Objects in a Tree or Menu. That way 
you don't have to worry about backingObject which is an implementation detail

Re: [flexcoders] Re: PopUpManager

2005-04-20 Thread JesterXL

Yes, if you, typically, do a deletePopUp when the event was triggered by the 
popup itself, there's some kind of reference to the popup kept around.

I've found that if I do something like this:

function initApp()
{
popup = PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, TitleWindow, true);
popup.addEventListener(click, this);
}


function click()
{
doLater(this, removePopUp);
}

function removePopUp()
{
popup.deletePopUp();
}

It's ok but if I were to immediately remove it, the dropshadow still is 
there.  Anyway, the above works all the time.

[flexcoders] Questions, Questions

2005-04-20 Thread David Terry










Hello Everyone,



First off I am very, very
new to Flex/ActionScript coding  like 2 days new, but I am finding this
newsgroup to be a great resource.



Here is my issue



My boss wants an application that will
allow the user to drag  drop elements into a container, manipulate any elements
within the container, and save the positioning data (x/y and height/width) of
each child element within the container.



I decided to look into Flex as a
possible development platform to accomplish these goals, but I am having a hard
time finding information. I know I can do the drag  drop functionality
into the container, but I havent found information on the rest.



Here are my questions

-


 Can
 I reposition elements within the container (using a canvas)? How?
 Drag  drop events?
 Can
 I get x/y and height/width information from the items within the
 container? How?




Thanks in advance,

David T.

RE: [flexcoders] Enable/disable UI

2005-04-20 Thread Abdul Qabiz

Hi,

In Flex each control has an id which is unique in entire application also
which is the reference to the control.

For example, see the following code:

mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml;
mx:TabBar dataProvider=vs/mx:TabBar
mx:ViewStack id=vs width=500 height=300
backgroundColor=0xCC
mx:Form id=frm1 label=screen1 width=100% height=100%
mx:FormItem label=Enable:mx:CheckBox id=enable_ch
selected=false/mx:CheckBox/mx:FormItem
/mx:Form
mx:Form id=frm2 label=screen2 width=100% height=100%
enabled={enable_ch.selected}
mx:TextInput id=_ti text={enable_ch.selected ? 'Enabled' :
'Disabled'}/
/mx:Form
/mx:ViewStack

/mx:Application


Switch between views by click on tabs, check/uncheck checkbox on first
screen to see its effect on other screen. So it shows, you can access a
control using it's id.

Hope that helps

2005-04-20 Thread kaibabsowats


Ok I am sick and am not thinking right.  Excuse my other post's
misspellings (say=saw).  But the doLater is not the issue.  Its the
timer.  I dont want to do it on a click event but a timed event with
setInterval.

The click makes sense because the PopUp has been rendered but with a
timed function (setInterval) it seems to get mixed up somewhere.

Also, if you are using Flex Builder you can see your trace 
output without doing any special configuration or writing out to a log. Simply 
preview your file inside Flex Builderby pressing the "debug" button and 
then click the tab for the "Output Panel" to view any trace output as your app

[flexcoders] Re: PopUpManager

2005-04-20 Thread Eric Raymond


The word from Macromedia is that you need the doLater when calling
deletePopUp from a timer listener.

Some operations in actionscript get executed at different time frames
due to how the display manager works.  Sequences of code actions is an
illusion that is mostly true in Flash.

In the case of a popup closing via an interval timer, deletePopUp code
is being called at an unexpected time and the display cleanup
operations occur at the wrong time.  Feels like a bug to me


The Horrid Details:

The doLater function synchronizes with the frame rate of the Flex
application. When you use doLater, the function is called after the
current frame code has executed. This is a good time because the UI
has had a chance to respond to your ActionScript commands.

Basically, your ActionScript code that affects the UI is queued until
the end of the current frame, then it is batch-executed on the UI. I
think there is even some optimization done so that if you change a
Text field with 50 AS statements, only the last is actually seen.

The setInterval code can happen on a clock-tick, so you could have it
go off between UI code calls, thus mucking up the display.

I've written a couple of apps now and in both I made my own text box
for displaying trace and debug type info. I just found it a bit
quicker and simpler than the debugger in Flex. I'm going to try
the Flash debugger option though since I didn't know you could do
that. Hopefully that will be better than the flex debugger.
That thing is just too SLOW =(

RE: [flexcoders] how to intercept 'right-click' on dataGrid cells ?

2005-04-20 Thread Abdul Qabiz

Hi,

Do you mean, you want to detect right-click?

You can detect it using ContextMenu object, but when user right clicks,
Flash Player Context menu would appear which can not be removed or hidden.
ContextMenu API allows you to added context menu items(commands) Flash
Player Context menu. Does it solve your purpose?

But again, ContextMenu only works at top-level object, it won't work for
nested objects. But you can still detect by doing some math of detecting if
mouse is over a datagrid cell and user clicked right mouse button...

[flexcoders] Correcting the Tree DragDrop styling

2005-04-20 Thread ckovey


When working with dragdrop in a tree I notice it to be confusing to
have the line as your guide for all operations.  For example if you
wanted to drag an item from 1 node to another, having that line
sometimes suggested that it wouldnt work as intended.  So I wanted to
make it like explorer where it highlights the folder you are
performing the operation on for everything but re-ordering of items.

I'm stuck trying to get the style to update depending on where we are
in the tree.  Does anyone know how to force a style update? This
example only works when you drag your item out of the tree and back
in, but it will change from the highlight to the line and back again.

Full code: http://www.speakeasy.org/~ckovey/flextree.zip

Here's the function in question:

function doDragOver(event) {
//itemRollOver=trace(event.index)

var dropLoc:Number=event.target.getDropLocation();
dropLocation.text=dropLoc;

if(dropLoc==0) myTree.dropIndicatorSkin=TreeOrderIndicator;
else myTree.dropIndicatorSkin=TreeDropIndicator;

event.target.showDropFeedback();
if (Key.isDown(Key.CONTROL))
event.action = DragManager.COPY;
else if (Key.isDown(Key.SHIFT)) 
event.action = DragManager.LINK;
else
event.action = DragManager.MOVE;
}


Thanks for any help or pointers in the right direction!

[flexcoders] Modified loading screen

2005-04-20 Thread Tom Fitzpatrick

Is it possible to make a kind of splash screen by adding an image to the 
loading/initializing bar that starts every Flex application? Or - is there 
a way to use an animated graphic image instead of the standard bar?

- Tom

RE: [flexcoders] Tile or TileList with resizable children

2005-04-20 Thread Matt Chotin










I think you probably want the Tile
container in this case (TileList wont work very well). You may need to update
the properties on the Tile itself as you change the number of children so that
it will adjust automatically. Id imagine though that you want some sort
of transition effects as you resize and move everything around, I dont
have any sample code for you off the top of my head, sorry!

Is possible to have a tile component or a tileList
one, that have item 
children resizing according to the size of the
component itself?

Basically I want to dislpay a range of 1 through 4
images and 
depending on the number of images I want to
display them at a size of 
100% of the container. So if there is only one
image it will fill the 
container space, with 2 images the space will be
divided in 2 columns 
and each image will take 50% of the space; with
3-4 images instead we 
will have 2 columns and 2 rows.

Check out the Selection.getCaretIndex()

like this:



var text : String = myTA.text;

var idx : Number =
Selection.getCaretIndex();

var start : String = text.substring(0,

var end : String = text.substring(idx);

var whole : String = start + my new

RE: [flexcoders] capturing an alert response within method that c alls alert

Write a simple class that acts as your

class AlertListener

{

 var variablesToPass : Object;

 var functionToCall : Function;



 function click(event : Object) : Void

 {

 functionToCall(event,
variablesToPass);

 }

}



Var al : AlertListener = new
AlertListener();

al.variablesToPass = myThreeVariables;

al.functionToCall =
mx.utils.Delegate.create(this, alertClickFunction);

Alert.show(, al, );



Hope this can get you started, you could
write anonymous objects that do similar things, but this is nice and OO J

RE: [flexcoders] Urgent- Wipe effect to repeater objects...

2005-04-20 Thread Matt Chotin










Instead of having hide/show functions you
could change the VBox to this:



 mx:VBox
mouseOver=cart[event.target.repeaterIndices[0]].visible = true 


mouseOut=cart[event.target.repeaterIndices[0]].visible = false 



The problem that I see is that those
labels can get in the way, basically when the mouse goes over the label which
is still technically inside the VBox the mouseOut event still fires. Im
not sure what the right solution would be here, maybe having the mouseOver
handler hide the last visible cart and show the new one? Ill let other
people chime in here, this change should at least make it a little more stable.

[flexcoders] Having trouble using createTextField

2005-04-20 Thread carmhuntress


I am trying to create a textfield when you click inside a canvas at
the x and y coordinates and it continues not to work.  My
understanding is that the canvas extends movieclip so I could add a
textfield to it.  It would help to possibly get a better understanding
of how this all works.

Here is my code:

mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml;

mx:Script
![CDATA[
function onMouseDownEvent()
{
var point = {x:mouseX, y:mouseY};
canvasText.createTextField(mytext,0,point.x,point.y, 40, 40,
{text:'this is a test'});
};


]]
/mx:Script

mx:Canvas id=canvasText mouseDown=onMouseDownEvent(); width=300
height=300/
/mx:Application

I also cannot define properties when the app starts for instance
canvasText.mytext.border can not be defined in the function.  I
modified this slightly and it work well in flash.  Please help.  Thanks.
