RE: [flexcoders] PopupManager causes RangeError: Error #2006: adding a popup window
The DataGrid does not like having popups come up during edit sessions.
It is trying to manage focus between editors as the popup tries to take
away the focus.
There's also a 'problem' in your code that itemEditEnd can be called
twice, once as you leave the cell, and again as the dg tries to move to
a new cell and you lose focus to the popup and have to kill that editor
too. I'd add logic as to whether you have a popup up or not, I would
also regenerate the popup every time instead of re-using it and set
focus in the creationComplete handler to the button in the popup. There
may still be cases that won't work. I'd try to avoid this kind of UI if
possible, popups are rather jarring. What are you really trying to
popup? What's the user task goal?

Subject: [flexcoders] PopupManager causes RangeError: Error #2006:

I saw something else similar in flexcoders, but the information
didn't seem to apply to this case. I can create a popup window from
a button's click handler, but THE SAME CODE used when editing a
DataGrid cell FAILS!
Is it a bug or a mis-use of PopupManager?? Thanks for any help!

Thanks for your reply.
I propably missed something here... but when I use {data.} in mxml it

it says null value - here's my code:

[flexcoders] Re: Debugging RemoteClass serialization
Thank you very much for your response, Jhonny. I tried to remove the [Managed] annotation without any effect. I also tried another approach: I decompiled the actual Java class file and rewrote the ActionScript looking at its getter methods, to make sure I was perfectly matching the property names, with no luck. All properties belongs to simple data types, such as String, Long (mapped to Number vars) and Timestamp (mapped to Date vars). The only exception is the immagine property, which is a byte[].. it is correct to map it to a flash.utils.ByteArray property? I also tried to mark it as [Transient] and to leave it out completely, still no luck. I feel like configuring my ecplise projects to use a red5 installation each time I need to see what's going on behind the scenes with remoting is a little intrusive.. really there isn't a simpler way? I'll keep it as a last resort, but I'd like to find an alternative solution.. anyway, thank you! Cosma

If so, I don't believe scale-9 will punch through to those bitmaps in either scenario. You would have to pull those bitmaps out of the Flash file as separate assets. Regarding the arrow getting stretched, are you using Flex 2? The reason I ask is because in Flex 2 the arrow icon has to be part of the ComboBox, thus it will stretch even with scale-9 applied to it. You could try to change this by setting both vertical scale grids above o below the arrow. However, if you are using rounded corner those would end up getting stretched. Other wise you might have to create different skins for ComboBoxes with different heights. I believe the issue is being resolved in Flex 3 with a new property called arrowIcon making the icon separate from the skin so the skin scales separately from the arrowIcon. I'm not sure about the ScrollBars. I've found that sometime adjusting the scale grids on the ScrollBar arrow skins can fix the issue.

[flexcoders] Re: Possible mx:SetEventHandler / bug
Hi,
first of all, thanks for the reply, I had a piece of my main app code
commented, so if you just copied and paste it, you won't see the bug
immediately, sorry, the fixed code is bellow.
I tried to use actionscript addEventListener, yet, the problem with
this approach is that SetEventHandlet purpose is to replace the
handling function, however, it won't unregister actionscript event
listeners, so the error won't show up but now we'll have 2 listeners
instead of 1.
The good code (still with the bug):
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;

OK, stumbled upon a fix by pure chance. Is this a bug?
By importing UIMovieClip and creating an instance (in a completely
separate component, that isn't even instantiated at runtime at the
time this issue occurs) this issue resolves!
i.e. a click event on the itemRenderer will now also set the
selectedIndex on the TileList.
No idea why. Anyone?
Cheers, Rich

Hi all,
Am in process of migrating app to Flex 3, as bug in 2.01 prevents
applying Fade to Flash CS3 MovieClips, which is essential for app
(see another flexcoders thread).
Anyway, the first issue I have encountered is that TileLists are
behaving differently.
The TileList click event no longer sets selectedItem when it is
triggered by a mouse click over the itemRenderer itself.
What's more the itemClick event is just not detected when the
trigger
is a mouse click over the itemRenderer.
In the code below SWFWrapper is a subclass of SWFLoader, and is
loaded with a Flash CS3 swf.
Here's some code that worked fine in 2.01
mx:TileList id=browserTL
borderThickness=0
rollOverColor=#ff
selectionColor=#00ff00
click=tileListClickHandler()
useHandCursor=true
right=0
top=0
width={main.TILELIST_WIDTH}

rowCount=3
dataProvider={browserAC}

treelinerugs:SWFWrapper id=thumbSWF
horizontalCenter=0
verticalCenter=0

yarnsAC={main.yarnsAC}
width=80
height={data.originalAspectRatio*80} /
/mx:Canvas
/mx:Component
/mx:itemRenderer
/mx:TileList
Looking forward to all of the goodness ahead once I've migrated.
Many thanks, Rich
PS Is there a newbie guide to migrating from 2.01 to 3 anywhere?
I'm
not expecting anything exhaustive - but just some hints for
commonly
used Classes that will require reworking.
[flexcoders] Re: Possible mx:SetEventHandler / bug
I uncommented that line from your code before and did see the error.
And I agree that there are two event listeners now. If all you want to
do is replace the old event listener with a new one, you can still
listen for a state change event and in the event handler, manually
remove the old listener and add the new event listener.
this.addEventListener(StateChangeEvent.CURRENT_STATE_CHANGE,
handleStateChange);
in the handleStateChange, you can check what the new state is and
add/remove event listeners accordingly.

Re: [flexcoders] layout / scrolling issues
If anyone else has this issues I've foudn the solution to the first item. the problem was that a VBox set to height=100% would stretch it's container which would force scroll bars to pup up in unexpected places. The way to get round this is to put the VBox inside a canvas. If you set both to height=100% the canvas behaves and does not stretch it's parent, the VBox then fits within the canvas and the canvas scrolls the VBox Hopefully someone will find that useful. On Dec 17, 2007 10:47 AM, Giles Roadnight [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All I have a couple of niggling lay out issues that I can't seem to resolve and was hoping that someone could help me with them. I have a popup with an HBox in. on the left I have VBOx (lets call it the controls Vbox) and on the right a text area. Both have height=100%. With in the controls Vbox I have several text boxes, buttons ect and I have another VBox (lets call it dynamic text box). This also has heing set to 100%. This dynamic box gets controls dynamically added to it - no way of knowing how many. These controls always make the controls VBox taller than the popup and the popup then produces scrollbars so that I can't see the buttons at the bottom of the controls VBox or the bottom of the text area. What I want to happen is for scroll bars to appear on the dynamic text box. I can only get this to happen if I set the height to for example 100 but then it does not stretch to make use of the whole height of the controls VBox. How do I get round this? The other problem is a bit easier to explain. I have a toggle button bar across the top of my app with width=100%. With all the buttons in there the width is probably about 1500 pixels. On my 1200 * 1600 screen this works fine - it fills the whole width. If I then restore my browser and re-size the window for example 800 pixels the bar re-sizes and button labels are cut off with ... at the end and tooltips. All this is as expected. If a user on a 800*600 screen opens this app though the button bar is still around 1500 pixels and stretches the whole app well beyond the bounds of the screen. This seems like a bug to me Any suggestions? Many Thanks -- Giles Roadnight http://giles.roadnight.name

[flexcoders] TitleWindow activation
We have an application where we use the PopUpManager to add a number of TitleWindows. I want to know when a window is activated i.e. it is clicked on and the window is brought to the front and vice versa when it ceases to be the topmost window. I thought the track focusin/focusout would be the solution but this doesnt appear to always work as expected. It seem clicking on a window doesnt give it focus it just brings it to the top, only clicking into a control in that window actually causes focus to be set. FocusIn/FocusOut seems to work only when I click on a TitleWindow once I have previously clicked in to a control in that window and also the same for window that is being moved backwards. So what event can I listen to know when a window is clicked on or is brought to the front by the PopUpManager.bringToFront? Hope thats clear.. tks

Subject: [flexcoders] DataGrid LinkButton - How to get columnIndex and
rowIndex when linkButton is cli
Hi
I am a newbie with a problem - I have a datagrid with an itemRenderer.
The itemRenderer is an AS class that extends LinkButton and just
checks if the data is 0 or not. If it is 0 then disable the button.
Then it adds an event listener:
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Application.application.cellClick);
This function gets called correctly but now I need to get the
columnIndex and rowIndex of the cell that the linkbutton was in. The
target and currentTarget are the same (The custom ItemRenderer class).
If I then try parentDocument, it returns the panel that holds the
datagrid. None of the panels or datagrids have ID's as they are
created on the fly based on a HTTPService lookup.
Can anyone tell me how to go about getting the columnIndex and
rowIndex of the clicked linkbutton?
Best Regards

[flexcoders] datagrid dataprovider versus backing arrayCollection
Hi,
I have an app with a dataGrid that has an arrayCollection as the
provider. The dataProvider is set via binding (dataProvider =
{dgAC}) However, I've noticed that I get a different collection
depending on whether I ask for dg.dataProvider or use dgAC. Could
someone please explain the difference between these two? I thought
they would reference the same data, but if I use (dg.dataProvider as
ArrayCollection).list.toArray() and dgAC.list.toArray(), I don't get
the same set of data. In my program, I'm adding a property to an
object in dgAC, that doesn't have a column in the datagrid, but I
thought that dg.dataProvider would return the complete arrayCollection
anyway.
Any enlightenment would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

a chart with the same CategoryAxis.
I have several ArrayCollections...for weight, height and BMI. Each
ArrayCollection has a date and value. I need to use actionscript to
create each one as a series and add that to the chart. I created an
ArrayCollection that just has all the dates for the points to plot. I
thought I could use this for the CategoryAxis dataProvider but when I
do it this way it seems that it plots the points at the wrong
dates.
Here is a sample of how I am adding one of the series and the
CategoryAxis:
var hAxis:CategoryAxis = new CategoryAxis();
hAxis.categoryField = 'startDate';
hAxis.dataProvider = allTrendingDates;
hAxis.labelFunction = lineChartDateFormat;
linechart.horizontalAxis = hAxis;
var bmiSeries:LineSeries = new LineSeries();

bmiSeries.displayName = 'BMI';
bmiSeries.yField = 'bmi';
linechart.series.push(bmiSeries);

[flexcoders] Problem with RSL and SWFLoaders
Hi all, I have built a large Flex application which consists of a main application window and a number of 'widgets' that are displayed in various areas of the screen. Each widget is itself a Flex application in its own right. When the main application starts up it checks which widgets should be loaded and creates SWFLoaders for each one. As the widgets share a lot of code I have recently created an RSL, core.swc, which holds all the common stuff. Unfortunately a lot of the widget applications now fail to load/start correctly. Here is the typical debug output when running the RSL-based application (with 11 widgets): [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\Main.swf - 254,721 bytes after decompression # Loading WorldClocks1 (WorldClocks.swf) # Loading ComboGrid1 (GroupTreeMarketGridCombo.swf) # Loading PositionGrid1 (PositionGrid.swf) # Loading PositionGrid2 (PositionGrid.swf) # Loading TradeHistoryGrid1 (TradeHistoryGrid.swf) # Loading OrderBook1 (OrderBook.swf) # Loading AccountTransactions1 (AccountTransactions.swf) # Loading CommsControl1 (CommsControlContainer.swf) # Loading TradeTicketContainer1 (TradeTicketContainer.swf) # Loading AccountSummary1 (AccountSummary.swf) # Loading SignalQualityDisplay1 (SignalQualityDisplay.swf) [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\WorldClocks.swf - 274,452 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\GroupTreeMarketGridCombo.swf - 330,684 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\PositionGrid.swf - 314,513 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\PositionGrid.swf - 314,513 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\TradeHistoryGrid.swf - 281,184 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\OrderBook.swf - 313,875 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\AccountTransactions.swf - 287,520 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\CommsControlContainer.swf - 279,246 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\TradeTicketContainer.swf - 312,721 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\AccountSummary.swf - 276,915 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\SignalQualityDisplay.swf - 275,342 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf # applicationComplete in PositionGrid1 # applicationComplete in AccountSummary1 11 out of 11 widget applications are loaded and decompressed but applicationComplete only fires in 2 of them! There is no sign of life from the other 9 widgets. I am guessing that there is an issue somewhere when using multiple SWFLoaders at the same time with an RSL. To clarify, everything works fine if I do not use the RSL or if I change the main application to load one widget, wait for applicationComplete, load the next, wait again etc etc - although doing this is *very* slow. Also, what is going on with the loading, decompressing and unloading of the RSL (core.swf) for each widget? I am wondering if this is anything to do with the problem. Thoughts, anyone? Regards, Nick.

[flexcoders] Flash Player r115 Does not allow Authorization HTTP Headers
Hello Everyone! The new version of the Flash player (r115) will not allow you to manipulate Authorization HTTP headers, despite documentation to the contrary. I have searched the Adobe site to find an announcement about changes to the player, but nothing comes up beyond the documented disallowed headers. Authorization is not on this list. In the previous version of flash Player 9, my application works fine. It bombs in r115. Example: var request : URLRequest = new URLRequest(serviceURL + loginService); request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST; urlvars.signature= 123456789; request.data = urlvars; var header : URLRequestHeader = new URLRequestHeader(); header.name = Authorization; header.value = foo=bar; request.requestHeaders = new Array(header); loader.load(request); Player 115 throws this error: Error #2096: The HTTP request header Authorization cannot be set via ActionScript. Players 28 47 work. Anyone have this issue? Thanks, Tim

If you're delivering an application hosted within a browser, then communicating with a local API can be tricky. But it may be possible, depending on how the touchscreen can communicate.

One thing that you have access to in a DataGrid Item Renderer is the

Subject: [flexcoders] DataGrid LinkButton - How to get columnIndex and
rowIndex when linkButton is cli
Hi
I am a newbie with a problem - I have a datagrid with an itemRenderer.
The itemRenderer is an AS class that extends LinkButton and just
checks if the data is 0 or not. If it is 0 then disable the button.
Then it adds an event listener:
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Application.application.cellClick);
This function gets called correctly but now I need to get the
columnIndex and rowIndex of the cell that the linkbutton was in. The
target and currentTarget are the same (The custom ItemRenderer class).
If I then try parentDocument, it returns the panel that holds the
datagrid. None of the panels or datagrids have ID's as they are
created on the fly based on a HTTPService lookup.
Can anyone tell me how to go about getting the columnIndex and
rowIndex of the clicked linkbutton?
Best Regards

Here is the typical debug output when running the RSL-based application (with 11 widgets): [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\Main.swf - 254,721 bytes after decompression # Loading WorldClocks1 (WorldClocks.swf) # Loading ComboGrid1 (GroupTreeMarketGridCombo.swf) # Loading PositionGrid1 (PositionGrid.swf) # Loading PositionGrid2 (PositionGrid.swf) # Loading TradeHistoryGrid1 (TradeHistoryGrid.swf) # Loading OrderBook1 (OrderBook.swf) # Loading AccountTransactions1 (AccountTransactions.swf) # Loading CommsControl1 (CommsControlContainer.swf) # Loading TradeTicketContainer1 (TradeTicketContainer.swf) # Loading AccountSummary1 (AccountSummary.swf) # Loading SignalQualityDisplay1 (SignalQualityDisplay.swf) [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\WorldClocks.swf - 274,452 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\GroupTreeMarketGridCombo.swf - 330,684 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\PositionGrid.swf - 314,513 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\PositionGrid.swf - 314,513 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\TradeHistoryGrid.swf - 281,184 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\OrderBook.swf - 313,875 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\AccountTransactions.swf - 287,520 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\CommsControlContainer.swf - 279,246 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\TradeTicketContainer.swf - 312,721 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\AccountSummary.swf - 276,915 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\SignalQualityDisplay.swf - 275,342 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf - 3,096,674 bytes after decompression [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf [Unload SWF] C:\Dev\Flex\childapps\bin\core.swf # applicationComplete in PositionGrid1 # applicationComplete in AccountSummary1 11 out of 11 widget applications are loaded and decompressed but applicationComplete only fires in 2 of them!

[flexcoders] RichTextEditor's Minimum Size

[flexcoders] Re: Vertical scrolling without horizontal scrolling? How do I make 100% == 100%
I too have been having problems with 100% widths and unwanted horizontal scrollbar. I've tried adding minWidth=0 to everything that has a width of 100% but that hasn't fixed the problem that I get an unwanted horizontal scrollbar. I've also tried using the reflex util (http://code.google.com/p/reflexutil/) to change these properties at run time to try and figure out what is causing the problem. What I (basically) have is the following: - (1) Tab navigator - 100% width -- (2) VBox (Tab contents) - 100% width --- (3a) Text --- (3b) HBox - 100% width --- (3c) Tab navigator - 100% width I get the vertical and horizontal scrollbars on the outer tab navigator (1) whenever the content gets taller than the app, in this case I obviously want vertical scrollbars and no horizontal scrollbars. With the reflex util I can change the width of the tab contents children (3a,3b,3c) and I still have horizontal scrollbar. However I cannot change the width of the VBox that wraps the tab contents (2) - it simply keeps resetting to the current value every time I try. I can see that it is the VBox (2) which is overlapping the vertical scrollbar (and thus causing the horizontal scrollbar) using reflex util. So I'm really stumped, I either need a solution to this, or a way to move the scrollbars from the tab navigator (1) to the VBox (2). Any advice would be greatly appreciated. -D

Subject: [flexcoders] datagrid dataprovider versus backing
arrayCollection
Hi,
I have an app with a dataGrid that has an arrayCollection as the
provider. The dataProvider is set via binding (dataProvider =
{dgAC}) However, I've noticed that I get a different collection
depending on whether I ask for dg.dataProvider or use dgAC. Could
someone please explain the difference between these two? I thought
they would reference the same data, but if I use (dg.dataProvider as
ArrayCollection).list.toArray() and dgAC.list.toArray(), I don't get
the same set of data. In my program, I'm adding a property to an
object in dgAC, that doesn't have a column in the datagrid, but I
thought that dg.dataProvider would return the complete arrayCollection
anyway.
Any enlightenment would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
John

Subject: [flexcoders] DataGrid LinkButton - How to get columnIndex and
rowIndex when linkButton is cli
Hi
I am a newbie with a problem - I have a datagrid with an itemRenderer.
The itemRenderer is an AS class that extends LinkButton and just
checks if the data is 0 or not. If it is 0 then disable the button.
Then it adds an event listener:
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Application.application.cellClick);
This function gets called correctly but now I need to get the
columnIndex and rowIndex of the cell that the linkbutton was in. The
target and currentTarget are the same (The custom ItemRenderer class).
If I then try parentDocument, it returns the panel that holds the
datagrid. None of the panels or datagrids have ID's as they are
created on the fly based on a HTTPService lookup.
Can anyone tell me how to go about getting the columnIndex and
rowIndex of the clicked linkbutton?
Best Regards

With in the controls Vbox I have several text boxes, buttons ect and I have another VBox (lets call it dynamic text box). This also has heing set to 100%. This dynamic box gets controls dynamically added to it - no way of knowing how many. These controls always make the controls VBox taller than the popup and the popup then produces scrollbars so that I can't see the buttons at the bottom of the controls VBox or the bottom of the text area. What I want to happen is for scroll bars to appear on the dynamic text box. I can only get this to happen if I set the height to for example 100 but then it does not stretch to make use of the whole height of the controls VBox. How do I get round this? The other problem is a bit easier to explain. I have a toggle button bar across the top of my app with width=100%. With all the buttons in there the width is probably about 1500 pixels. On my 1200 * 1600 screen this works fine - it fills the whole width. If I then restore my browser and re-size the window for example 800 pixels the bar re-sizes and button labels are cut off with ... at the end and tooltips. All this is as expected. If a user on a 800*600 screen opens this app though the button bar is still around 1500 pixels and stretches the whole app well beyond the bounds of the screen.

[flexcoders] Re: Cairngorm AMFPHP
an update to this:
I ended up dropping the casting to the UserVO.php. So the function
signature looks like:
function getUser ($user){}
rather than
function getUser (UserVO $user){}
then inside the new function I set the type to an object using:
settype(user, object);
this allows the php function to be able to retrieve the object
propeties such as $user-name or $user-password since it sees it as
an object rather than the array flex likes to send.
Though this works, it doesn't sit well with me because I thought the
whole idea of remoting was to be able to pass classes around without
having to do these kind of work arounds.
If anyone has any ideas on this, please give me a shout.

Regarding the arrow getting stretched, are you using Flex 2? The reason I ask is because in Flex 2 the arrow icon has to be part of the ComboBox, thus it will stretch even with scale-9 applied to it. You could try to change this by setting both vertical scale grids above o below the arrow. However, if you are using rounded corner those would end up getting stretched. Other wise you might have to create different skins for ComboBoxes with different heights. I believe the issue is being resolved in Flex 3 with a new property called arrowIcon making the icon separate from the skin so the skin scales separately from the arrowIcon. I'm not sure about the ScrollBars. I've found that sometime adjusting the scale grids on the ScrollBar arrow skins can fix the issue.

I thought the track focusin/focusout would be the solution but this doesnt appear to always work as expected. It seem clicking on a window doesnt give it focus it just brings it to the top, only clicking into a control in that window actually causes focus to be set.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex JavaFX Sliverlight Flash PB
Yes, that's true, delivering to the browser is only one way of distributing an application. Sometimes you can deliver and install standalone executables (like a Flash Projector or such), and sometimes you can deliver to the desktop without requiring a system-level installation (Adobe AIR). Most Flash and Flex is viewed inside an HTML browser, rendered by Adobe Flash Player 9. In this environment we don't have direct access to device drivers, and so everything would depend on how that tactile screen can send information. (If its API is similar to that of a computer mouse, then things are pretty easy. But if it's more of a haptic controller then it may not be able to communicate to something inside a browser.) jd/adobe -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com on behalf of debussy007 Sent: Tue 12/18/2007 10:03 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Flex JavaFX Sliverlight Flash PB Thank you all for your replies !

[flexcoders] Re: Flex JavaFX Sliverlight Flash
It depends, languages and technologies are tools: use the right one for the right job. So starting at the beginning: Do you want to develop a web-app or a desktop application? Given your own suggestions I assume you are familiar with creating a Java-backend. First I'll start by ruling out Flash: Yes, you 'can' make an application with Flash, but it doesn't seems easy to me. I believe Flash is more about animation/look-n-feel. What you easily CAN do, is create assets in Flash, and use them for Flex-components. I can't help you with Silverlight, it's a big black box to me. Which at it's release seemed wanting to conquer the Flash(?Flex)-world, but just lacks the years of experience for it. Next Up is 'Standard Webpages'. It's hard to know what you define as 'standard webpages', but if that includes to be not entirely static pages, serverside controlled (maybe even some AJAX thrown in), and you're familiar with that, then why not? However, it's just another WebInterface, sure you can do amazing stuff with this, but try getting it working on each browser(version)... The Java-GUI-side: you mention JavaFX or Swing-based(fat) clients. First of all, if you're going for a webapp: drop it. Only 4 letters apply there: s-l-o-w. (Before the Java-community shoots me: yes, the speed of Java Web Start has increased astonishing, but please, compare it to flexApps...) However if you're going for a desktop-Application, then yeah, go for JavaFX. Being a Swing/Awt-wrapper, it allows you to fit in plain Swing-code when you need it. Do note that at this point JavaFX is only fully released as an interpreted language. The compiled version is stable at milestone1, but not yet good enough for a productionenvironment according to me. Then there is Flex. When it's a webapp you want, and it has to look and feel like you want, use it. It's not hard at all to grasp the concept of how to develop a FlexApplication. The structure of the language allows you to create anything you need. Besides, with the recent release of BlazeDS, easy communication with Java-backends just got free of charge. And I must say, the community here is great ;) Flex might require some new logical approach when you're used to writing Java, since it's completely event-based, but untill now I have found it worth the effort. Also note that above is written out of personal experience (which is not to be esteemed to high). Once again, use the tool which fits the job best, and if you're tight on time use one you know or is easy to learn (*subtile hint into Flex, after all this is the FlexCoders list*) --Johan
[flexcoders] Re: implementing IFocusManager

So I'll be stepping out of my league a bit on this project and if anyone from the Flash games world has some advice I'd appreciate it :) If you were making a large world with lots of people/objects on your tile area I'm assuming a few things 1) you dont want to create n objects for everything in the world and only want those that are visible to the player created 2) you need to write some custom 'engine' that can detect if an object should be created so its visible to the player 2b) I'm pretty certain there isnt an event/something built in to say 'hey im visible you should create me on the stage' in Flex 3) you'll want to create objects just a bit outside of the players POV so they are ready when the scrolled area comes to them 4) should I keep those objects created after the player has passed that area (he can go back of course) or should I define either some max objects or max range before they are destroyed and do my own garbage collection If theres any websites, blogs, books you'd recommend I would appreciate it Thanks in advance

How do I make 100% == 100% I too have been having problems with 100% widths and unwanted horizontal scrollbar. I've tried adding minWidth=0 to everything that has a width of 100% but that hasn't fixed the problem that I get an unwanted horizontal scrollbar. I've also tried using the reflex util (http://code.google.com/p/reflexutil/ http://code.google.com/p/reflexutil/ ) to change these properties at run time to try and figure out what is causing the problem. What I (basically) have is the following: - (1) Tab navigator - 100% width -- (2) VBox (Tab contents) - 100% width --- (3a) Text --- (3b) HBox - 100% width --- (3c) Tab navigator - 100% width I get the vertical and horizontal scrollbars on the outer tab navigator (1) whenever the content gets taller than the app, in this case I obviously want vertical scrollbars and no horizontal scrollbars. With the reflex util I can change the width of the tab contents children (3a,3b,3c) and I still have horizontal scrollbar. However I cannot change the width of the VBox that wraps the tab contents (2) - it simply keeps resetting to the current value every time I try. I can see that it is the VBox (2) which is overlapping the vertical scrollbar (and thus causing the horizontal scrollbar) using reflex util. So I'm really stumped, I either need a solution to this, or a way to move the scrollbars from the tab navigator (1) to the VBox (2). Any advice would be greatly appreciated. -D
[flexcoders] Re: implementing IFocusManager
yeah that is what I thought too but to properly implement the
IfocusManagerComponent dont i just add it to the class declaration?
like so:
import mx.managers.IFocusManagerComponent;
public class ColoredScheduleEntry extends SimpleScheduleEntry
implements IScheduleEntry,IFocusManagerComponent
everywhere I have looked that is what the example tells you to do and
it should work but it doesnt at all because its an object and not a UI
component?
So, i believe i have to convert each object to an item using
ItemRenderer and then it should be focus-able?
this is all just logic in my head though, i am sure there are other
ways (or if I just implemented it wrong which would save me more
headaches)

ah so what you are saying is because its not a UI component I have

declare the get and set methods myself? Do I have to override the

thanks for the help

I do not know what SimpleScheduleEntry extends but it is most

that it does not extend UIComponent. The example says that
'implements

component to set focus. Otherwise, you will have to implement
drawFocus() and setFocus() yourself.

anyone know why this is??
Re: [flexcoders] Question about flash.event ... someone can help?
You're going to need to dispatch the event, instead of calling the handler
directly.
In your component:
this.addEventListener(onUploadCanceled);
...
In the caller:
public function cleanForm():void{
dispatchEvent(event);
parentDocument.goToStack(0); }
I may have the exact syntax wrong (check the docs) but the gist is there.

[flexcoders] Re: datagrid dataprovider versus backing arrayCollection
I took a look at it and I had a bug in my code (surprise). I wasn't
referring to the same arrayCollection as I thought.
Sorry,

Subject: [flexcoders] datagrid dataprovider versus backing
arrayCollection
Hi,
I have an app with a dataGrid that has an arrayCollection as the
provider. The dataProvider is set via binding (dataProvider =
{dgAC}) However, I've noticed that I get a different collection
depending on whether I ask for dg.dataProvider or use dgAC. Could
someone please explain the difference between these two? I thought
they would reference the same data, but if I use (dg.dataProvider as
ArrayCollection).list.toArray() and dgAC.list.toArray(), I don't get
the same set of data. In my program, I'm adding a property to an
object in dgAC, that doesn't have a column in the datagrid, but I
thought that dg.dataProvider would return the complete arrayCollection
anyway.
Any enlightenment would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
John

[flexcoders] Binding DataGridColumn to an XML attribute rather than the text of an element
I'm accessing an XML document using HTTPService. I've bound the last result to a DataGrid and the DataGridColumn to the text value of an a attribute with no problem. Now I want to bind to an attribute in the same elemenet (i.e. href), but I can't figure out the syntax to be used in the dataField property. Here is the XML i'm accessing htmlbody spana class=Customer href=http://localhost:8080/nfjs/customer?id=103; Atelier graphique/a br//span spana class=Customer href=http://localhost:8080/nfjs/customer?id=112; Signal Gift Stores/a br//span ... I can get the value of the a attribute into the first column but I want to put the href attribute value into the second column. How should I set the dataField property. I've tried dataField=a.href, dataField=a/href, dataField=[EMAIL PROTECTED], dataField=a/@href, dataField=[EMAIL PROTECTED] with no success. Is it possible to specify an XML attribute from the dataField property? Thanks, Richard
RE: [flexcoders] Question about flash.event ... someone can help?
Can you use a default parameter value?
e.g.
change this :
public function onUploadCanceled(event:Event):void {
to this :
public function onUploadCanceled(event:Event=null):void {
That's if you're not actually using any info in the event, of course ?
I'm guessing there, but it seems reasonably likely for an uploadCancelled
function.
Otherwise I tend to use a a wrapper function that takes the event, parses the
event info and then passes that to a function that does the real work (which
you can of course call separately).

Re: [flexcoders] Flex JavaFX Sliverlight Flash
Thank you johan. The back ends are based on Java webservices. It has no reason to be a web-app so we will rather go for a desktop application. (Or make it a web-app and lock the browser to benefit from all the web technologies (e.g. RSS feeds, thin client) Does that makes sense ?) But there is something I don't get: What is the difference between an RIA desktop application (e.g. in Flex) and a standard desktop application (e.g. Swing based) ? Thank you. johantrax wrote: It depends, languages and technologies are tools: use the right one for the right job. So starting at the beginning: Do you want to develop a web-app or a desktop application? Given your own suggestions I assume you are familiar with creating a Java-backend. First I'll start by ruling out Flash: Yes, you 'can' make an application with Flash, but it doesn't seems easy to me. I believe Flash is more about animation/look-n-feel. What you easily CAN do, is create assets in Flash, and use them for Flex-components. I can't help you with Silverlight, it's a big black box to me. Which at it's release seemed wanting to conquer the Flash(?Flex)-world, but just lacks the years of experience for it. Next Up is 'Standard Webpages'. It's hard to know what you define as 'standard webpages', but if that includes to be not entirely static pages, serverside controlled (maybe even some AJAX thrown in), and you're familiar with that, then why not? However, it's just another WebInterface, sure you can do amazing stuff with this, but try getting it working on each browser(version)... The Java-GUI-side: you mention JavaFX or Swing-based(fat) clients. First of all, if you're going for a webapp: drop it. Only 4 letters apply there: s-l-o-w. (Before the Java-community shoots me: yes, the speed of Java Web Start has increased astonishing, but please, compare it to flexApps...) However if you're going for a desktop-Application, then yeah, go for JavaFX. Being a Swing/Awt-wrapper, it allows you to fit in plain Swing-code when you need it. Do note that at this point JavaFX is only fully released as an interpreted language. The compiled version is stable at milestone1, but not yet good enough for a productionenvironment according to me. Then there is Flex. When it's a webapp you want, and it has to look and feel like you want, use it. It's not hard at all to grasp the concept of how to develop a FlexApplication. The structure of the language allows you to create anything you need. Besides, with the recent release of BlazeDS, easy communication with Java-backends just got free of charge. And I must say, the community here is great ;) Flex might require some new logical approach when you're used to writing Java, since it's completely event-based, but untill now I have found it worth the effort. Also note that above is written out of personal experience (which is not to be esteemed to high). Once again, use the tool which fits the job best, and if you're tight on time use one you know or is easy to learn (*subtile hint into Flex, after all this is the FlexCoders list*) --Johan -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Flex-%3C%3E-JavaFX-%3C%3E-Sliverlight-%3C%3E-Flash-tp14384496p14405852.html Sent from the FlexCoders mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
[flexcoders] Calling Local Web Services
All, Do the Web Services called in a Flex application need to be publically available (i.e., WAN address)? Because I don't necessarily want to expose these to the outside world, just to the Flex app by some sort of proxy. Can somebody give me instructions on how to set this up?
