Anybody know exactly where I can find what version of the flash
plugin flex 2 expects? I'm getting alerts saying I'm not updated, and
am trying to make sure it's all installed right -- I think I even
installed the h.264 update...

Ok, I've got a main application, with a registration component that

With one button I want to set the main application's currentstate, as

When I do click={currentState=_registration;
login.currentState=bday}; the main app works and shifts to the
_registration state, but the component does NOT set itself back to
the bday state.
Any suggestions?

When you embed a font, you have to embed both font files (bold and
normal) for a CB or other scenario like that.
Cam you strip it down to a simple test case?

It was as bold. I did not specify this myself, it must be the
default
style.
I find that if I don't use the embeded font it works correctly. So
it seems that the componenet is somehow using the normal and bold
version of the local font correctly. I think that using an embedded
font that is either normal or bold fails for both area since one or
the other weight is missing.

Re: [flexcoders] 1009 error
Hi,
That error isn't saying that the function doesn't exist. It is saying that the
thing that is supposed to contain that function doesn't exist. Perhaps there
is a slight scoping issue here?

This is getting frustrating.
I've removed all references to transitions/effects, and have a simple button
on click calling function {resetRegWindow()}.
There IS a resetRegWindow function.

[flexcoders] deleting rows from grid --- need help
Hi All ,
Need some help in deleting selected rows from grid. I am
able to add rows to Grid. But unable to delete selected rows from
Grid. Even user checks multiple rows its deleting only one row at a
time. And one more problem I am facing is its not retaining the
values entered by user if I add / delete rows to Grid.
Here is the code what I tried for deleting and adding rows to Grid
public function addOtherIncome():void
{
incomeData.addItem({Charterer:'',incomeDesc:'',incomeAmt:''});
}
public function deleteIncome():void
{
//Alert.show(Inside Delete Item + checkIncome.length );
for(var j:Number=0;jcheckIncome.length;j++)
{
Alert.show(inside of for + checkIncome
[j].selected);
if(checkIncome[j].selected==true)
{
incomeGridRow.height = 0;
incomeData.removeItemAt(j);
}
}
}
incomeData - name of the data provider
checkIncome - name of the checkbox
incomeGridRow - name of the gridrow
Anybody help me to solve these issues. I tried a lot to solve
these issues. Thanx in advance
Thanks Regards,
Siva Kumar

[flexcoders] Re: tab navigator componene
Gents,
Thanks for the replies. I guess what was throwing me off was the
tabBar property. According to docs, it returns reference to currently
selected tabBar of this TabNavigator however, I could not get
following to work
mx:TabNavigator id=tabNav x=820 y=249 width=260 height=422
change=showAlert(event);
private function showAlert( event:Event ):void {
Alert.show( event.target.tabBar );
}
It returns to me following error
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property tabBar not found on
mx.containers.TabNavigator and there is no default value.
I managed to get reference to the selected tabBar by using
event.target.selectedIndex, but I'd still like to know how to use
tabBar property or why couldn't I get it to work in the first place.
Thank you all,
Moe

The problem is that deleting items in a collection causes the indexes to

One solution is to delete the items from the end. There was a thead on

Need some help in deleting selected rows from grid. I am
able to add rows to Grid. But unable to delete selected rows from
Grid. Even user checks multiple rows its deleting only one row at a
time. And one more problem I am facing is its not retaining the
values entered by user if I add / delete rows to Grid.
Here is the code what I tried for deleting and adding rows to Grid
public function addOtherIncome():void
{
incomeData.addItem({Charterer:'',incomeDesc:'',incomeAmt:''});
}
public function deleteIncome():void
{
//Alert.show(Inside Delete Item + checkIncome.length );

incomeData - name of the data provider
checkIncome - name of the checkbox
incomeGridRow - name of the gridrow

[flexcoders] How do I generate random colors (within a range)?
OK, my hex and bitwise skills are non-existent, so I am probably on the completely wrong track here, but... I converted a couple of hex values to decimal values (11776947 and 10724259) with an online converter. They each evaluate to a shade of gray (as expected), but when I generate random values that fall between the two and use them in the drawing API they are not shades of gray. I'm sure plenty of you are saying duh, but if you could also suggest a way to randomly generate differing shades of gray I would be most appreciative. I suppose the chances of someone having written a RandomGrayGenerator class is pretty slim, so I am open to more general courses of action as necessary. Thanks, Ben
RE: [flexcoders] How do I generate random colors (within a range)?
Grey RGB values have the same byte value in each of the rbg channels. So your best bet is to store your grey values as single byte hex values myGreys = [0xAA, 0x58, 0x22]; then interpolate between those values: var newGreyByte:uint = ((myGreys[0] + (myGreys[1] - myGreys[0]) * Math.random()) as uint); Then create an rgb value out if that: var newGreyRGB:uint = (newGreyByte 16) + (newGreyByte 8) + newGreyByte; Ely.

Hi folks, I have tried to find this topic posted in the group and the web in general and tho I find plenty on related cases, I cannot seem to find the right answer. So I pose this question to you, my fellow colleagues. I want to be able to connect the debugger to a swf that has NOT been launched by the Flex Builder plug-in. For instance, I want build a debug version swf locally, deploy it to a server manually (by cp'ing it there) and then connect the debugger to that swf. Used to back in the Flex 1.5 days I remember being able to just click the 'localHost' button and it would work as expected. However, I have not been able to do this with Flex 2 as it just reopens the connection box and eventually fails out. So is this possible? I apologize if there is indeed a duplicate post and I happened to miss it. If so, please post a link. Thanks, J

Re: [flexcoders] How do I generate random colors (within a range)?
Ben, The reason that the values between do not fall into shades of grey is because the decimal values you have that represent those colors are just straight conversions from Hexadecimal to Decimal and therefore don't provide anything meaningful. To get true shades of grey you basically need each group of values to represent the two next to them. I'll try to do a conversion for you so you might get an idea of how to do this on your own: 0x232323 if we break that into bits we get: 0010 0011 0010 0011 0010 0011. A way you could do this is just get two random values from 0 - 15. var i:Number = Math.random( 0, 15 ); var j:Number = Math.random( 0, 15 ); var randomGrey:Number = ( i 20 ) | ( j 16 ) | ( i 12 ) | ( j 8 ) | ( i 4 ) | j; I haven't tested this at all, I'm just kind of writing it out, but give it a go and it should get you in the right direction.

[flexcoders] Re: A common question with no answer yet - Flex Debugger
Are you saying that (a) you want Flex Builder to launch the browser, but with a custom URL that you specify, or (b) you don't want Flex Builder to launch the browser at all -- just connec to an already-running browser that you launched? Both are possible. (a) If you want Flex Builder to launch the browser, but with a custom URL that you specify, just edit the launch configuration. Easiest way to do that is described here: http://www.morearty.com/blog/2006/05/23/flex-builder-ctrl-click-to-access-a-lanch-configs-properties/ Then, just edit the URL shown in the Debug edit box. (b) If don't want Flex Builder to launch the browser at all, but just connect to a browser you already launched manually: This is a hack, but it works: Go to the same launch configuration dialog mentioned above, and just set the URL to any old thing (e.g about:blank, or if that doesn't work, http://www.google.com). When you click Debug, Flex Builder will launch a browser at the bogus page; and now, for the next two minutes, Flex Builder is listening on a socket, waiting for the Flash player to connect to it.

I have a fairly simple Flex 2 app that uses a canvas container to
scroll the display of a child image element.

The canvas has:
- both scroll policies set to auto (thought eventually, horz will be
set to off
- fixed with of 316px (300 + the width of the vertical scrollbar)
The child image has:
- fixed width of 300px
- maintainAspectRatio set to true
Loading the 300x100px image into the image component results in no
scrollbars, as expected.
Loading the 300x200px image into the image component results in a
vertical scrollbar only, as expected, and when the scrollbar is at the
bottommost position in the track we see the bottommost edge of the
image, also as expected.
Loading the 500x600px image into the image component results in a
vertical scrollbar only, again as expected (since the width of the
image component is set to 300 and scaling occurs), but now as we
scroll down it goes well beyond the bottom edge of the image, NOT as
expected.
I need the scrollbar in this case to allow to user to scroll down only
as far as the bottom edge of the image (just like with the 300x200px
image).
Is there something I can do to enforce this rule?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: How do I generate random colors (within a range)?
That should probably be: Var myGreys:Array = [...]; The example code I gave you just showed how to interpolate between two specific values. I'm assuming that in your code, you've got lots of grey values, and rules for deciding which two ones you want to interpolate between. So You can generalize the code to first decide what the two values you're using are, and then run the code below. i.e., I could have written it as: Var greyOne:uint = 0x38; Var greyTwo:uint = 0xE3; var newGreyByte:uint = ((greyOne + (greyTwo - greyOne) * Math.random()) as uint); Ely.

Am I likely to run into a future version of the compiler that will choke on the missing quotes?

[flexcoders] Decorator Pattern 101

Here's what I'm trying to do:

Decorator Pattern is for.
In pseudo code this is the basic functionality I want:
class JuiceMaster

public function makeJuice(type:String):void
{
trace(Happily making, type, juice!, Tralalala!);
}
}
class JuiceMaker extends Button
{
public function JuiceMaker()
{
Super();
makeJuice(apple);
}
}
And in MXML, I should be able to do something like this:
JuiceMaker id=myJuiceMaker click=myJuiceMaker.makeJuice('orange') /
Of course this example isn't going into any detail, and doesn't make
much sense, but this is somewhat my need.
Any explicit explanation on how to get something like this to work
with the Decorator Pattern is greatly appreciated.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: How to converst an XML to AS Object ?
Does anybody have good examples how SimpleXMLDecoder works ? I've never found a good one. Senocular has a library called XMLDefinition (google it). I've not looked at it too much, but it superficially appears to do what you're looking for. I don't like the idea of passing the XML into the object for it to self-populate (or its counterpart spitting out a piece of XML for serialization). In my mind, serialization (which is what this is) is a related but independent class from the model itself. Of course, that's not a weird suggestion... its how Java implements serialization and how AS3 does it generically as well. Though frustratingly these dynamic languages don't provide general purpose API for doing it with strong typing. Come on, Adobe, XML is the lingua franca of the web (if not of business software) and its a native type in AS3. There should be trivial, native serialization of objects with strong types to and from XML (in the same way that there is for the, ahem, proprietary AMF format). Troy.

Re: [flexcoders] Decorator Pattern 101
Hi,
You can't decorate a UIComponent since it is a DisplayObject and needs to be
added to the display list.
You have to either us composition or subclass Button and use an interface
and pass the class to decorate the Button with.
JuiceMaker id=myJuiceMaker decorator={JuiceMaster} click=
myJuiceMaker.makeJuice('orange') /
class JuiceMaster
implemented IJuiceMaker
{
public function makeJuice(type:String):void
{
trace(Happily making, type, juice!, Tralalala!);
}
}
public class JuiceMaker
extends Button
implemented IJuiceMaker
{
private var _makerClass:Class;
private var makerImpl:IJuiceMaster;
public function set makerClass(value:Class):void
{
_makerClass = value;
makerImpl = new _makerClass();
}
public function set makerClass():Class

{
if (makerImpl is IJuiceMaker)
makerImpl.makeJuice(type);
}
}
public interface IJuiceMaker
{
function makeJuice(type:String):void;
}
The above is something that would help what you are trying to achieve with
display object.
You could also drop the interfaces and use concrete types but hey, if your

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Very slow initial load and an excessive CPU usage during startup
If you're using Moxie, the next beta will have a performance profiler. In 2.x, you can listen to LayoutManager for updateComplete events and see how many you get and how far apart they are. If you get a lot of them, then something in your app is constantly invalidating the UI and you have to figure out what and where. If you get only a few, maybe you are receiving a huge chunk of data from the server that needs processing/conversion.

Okay... from the lack of response, I can only assume that it was too

I've tried everything from setting the height of the image to the

I have a fairly simple Flex 2 app that uses a canvas container to
scroll the display of a child image element.
Consider the following mxml, with three images: 300x100px, 300x200px,
and 500x600px.
The canvas has:
- both scroll policies set to auto (thought eventually, horz will be
set to off
- fixed with of 316px (300 + the width of the vertical scrollbar)
The child image has:
- fixed width of 300px
- maintainAspectRatio set to true
Loading the 300x100px image into the image component results in no
scrollbars, as expected.
Loading the 300x200px image into the image component results in a
vertical scrollbar only, as expected, and when the scrollbar is at the
bottommost position in the track we see the bottommost edge of the
image, also as expected.
Loading the 500x600px image into the image component results in a
vertical scrollbar only, again as expected (since the width of the
image component is set to 300 and scaling occurs), but now as we
scroll down it goes well beyond the bottom edge of the image, NOT as
expected.
I need the scrollbar in this case to allow to user to scroll down only
as far as the bottom edge of the image (just like with the 300x200px
image).
Is there something I can do to enforce this rule?

P.S. As a workaround, I can escape() the string before adding it,
and unescape() afterwards, but this seems ugly and loses the
human-
readability.

If you turn on verbose-stacktraces or use debug version it'll show you
the exact line number to look at. Something doesn't exist that the code
expects to exist.

Hi,
That error isn't saying that the function doesn't exist. It is saying
that the thing that is supposed to contain that function doesn't
exist. Perhaps there is a slight scoping issue here?

This is getting frustrating.
I've removed all references to transitions/effects, and have a
simple button on click calling function {resetRegWindow()}.
There IS a resetRegWindow function.
I get this:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or
method of a null object reference.
at Nestle/resetRegWindow()
at Nestle/___LinkButton2_click()
