 I have a skinnabledatacontainer with custom itemrender surrounded by a

 mouse-wheel is used. Currently it scrolls way to many records. Is there an
 easy way to do this? So far, the only way I've found is to extend the
 existing scroller, then override the mx_internals set mouseWheel function.
 The file also has to be AS, because overriding mx_internals functions
 doesn't work in mxml fx:script. It's a very heavy solution for a
 relatively simple activity, am I missing something?

[flexcoders] How to use Graphics in FB4

2010-05-22 Thread Shabir Gilkar
Hi All!

I am Beginner in FB4,
As i am currently creating a simple minibrowser in FB4 as AIR App, Now i
want to create some graphics which i can later use as Background, Butons,
Links etc. as previously i have some experience in Flash and I have CS4
Flash authoring tool. As in Flash we are creating a simple graphics and
later on converting it into Button or Movieclip and later on we attach to it
actionListeners etc. Now as i want to crate some self defined graphics, How
can i then use them as Button or Links etc or Bg (Bg i know to put it within
image control).

What goes wrong ? If smaller files transfer fine, it's probably a max process

[flexcoders] Flash Builder 4 issues

2010-05-22 Thread Rick Genter
I'm developing an application using Flash Builder 4 and have encountered two 
issues:

1) If I turn on -keep-generated-actionscript=true, the generated ActionScript 
results in errors. The errors appear to stem from a strange placement of the 
generated folder: it's putting it in src/, not in bin/ as the documentation 
states. The errors I get are:

Description ResourcePathLocationType
1068: Unable to open included file: /Users/rickgenter/Documents/Adobe Flash 
Builder 4/GM/src/GM.mxml:7,41.  GM-interface.as /GM/src/generated   
line 55 Flex Problem
A file found in a source-path 'GM-generated' must have the same name as the 
class definition inside the file 'GM'.  GM-generated.as /GM/src/generated   
Unknown Flex Problem
A file found in a source-path must have the same package structure 'generated', 
as the definition's package, ''.GM-generated.as /GM/src/generated   
Unknown Flex Problem

I really don't get the first error, since the .mxml file *is* at that location.

If I turn off -keep-generated-actionscript=true, the errors go away and the 
application works fine.

2) I have several ActionScript classes that are part of the application but are 
not directly referenced in the code. They are instantiated using 
getDefinitionByName(). The pattern is:

var classReference:Class = 
getDefinitionByName(my.fully.qualified.DerivedClass) as Class;
var newInstance:BaseClass = new classReference() as BaseClass;

where my.fully.qualified.DerivedClass extends BaseClass. The issue is that 
Flash Builder performs no error checking on any of the DerivedClass files in 
the project. I have to have a direct reference to the class before it will be 
checked.

Any suggestions on how to address either of these? I've used Google to search 
for ideas but have so far turned up nothing.

Re: [flexcoders] How to use Graphics in FB4

2010-05-22 Thread Oleg Sivokon
Well, FB isn't a graphic editor, so, if you have Flash CS, that's the best
way to create graphics. You can then compile them into SWC and use that SWC
in FB. Other options are to make SVG in something like Inkscape and then
Flex compiler should technically understand SVG, but I wouldn't count on
100% compatibility in the latter case.


Re: [flexcoders] Flash Builder 4 issues

2010-05-22 Thread Oleg Sivokon
The first one never happened to me before, but, if I had to work around
that, I'd set it to compile with Ant and I would try to change the settings
so that it wouldn't generate as files in the source folder. The error
message may be somewhat ambiguous, but what it is trying to say is that it
is trying to compile the generated file, but it finds it in the wrong
location.

If the project doesn't have an explicit reference to a class, then it is
considered a foreign file. More yet, it won't be compiled with the project,
unless you are compiling with COMPC and you have that class mentioned in the
configuration.

Best.

[flexcoders] Progress bar is rendering even when hidden - Show Redraw Regions

2010-05-22 Thread dorkie dork from dorktown
I have a progress bar that even when I remove it (remove it's parent)
from the stage it continues to render. I know this whenever the screen
changes quickly I see it's outline. And also because Show Redraw
Regions outlines it as well. I can't figure out how to stop this or if
it's causing performance issues. In the progress bar code I see there
is a timer running every 30ms.

Dear Oleg,

Thank you very much for your mail. I know that FB is not Image Editor, As i
mentioned earlier that i want to create self designed graphics for my
MiniBrowser Project and Later on Putting Controles on It, so as make it look
like good. As we are doing in Flash CS4, we are creating graphics and
converting some of our graphics into Button and Movieclips as per the need
and later we are allowing these assets to listen to certain functionalities
with action listeners.

If i create a MiniBrowser theme in Flash CS4 and Create Menu, Button, Bg Etc
graphics and then convert them into as movieclips or button in Flash CS4 and
later export it into SWC. can i use them as button or movieclips in FB and
make them listen the actions via AS3?

Hi Oleg,

Thanks for your reply. I had already determined that it was generating the file 
in the wrong location; I was hoping there was a setting in FB4 that I had 
somehow inadvertently changed to cause it to do that. Apparently, though, there 
isn't. I'll file a bug with Adobe regarding this, and an enhancement request 
regarding optionally compiling apparently unreferenced files.
