[flexcoders] External CSS file in Flex 4

2010-09-03 Thread Ghost Hack
Hi people,

i'm having some trouble while using the tag fx:Style
source=assets/mycss.css /. When I generate a release of my project, Flex
4 embed my CSS file into compiled application, while i want to use PHP to
generate dynamic CSS based on the user configuration in database.

Is there any workaround i'm missing?


Thanks in advance,
Marco Lacava.

Even when loaded run-time the css file comes compiled as a .swf. So what you 
are 
trying to achieve there is kind of impossible unless you can somehow compile 
the 
swf with PHP. Which I have not heard to be possible yet but maybe I'm mistaking.

Flash.text.StyleSheet can do some limited parsing of .CSS.  You can then copy 
the values into a Flex CSSStyleDeclaration.

RE: [flexcoders] Drop Target indicator visibility issue

2010-09-03 Thread Philip Smith

Still experiencing the drop indicator visibility issue.

This method handles the 'dragOver event (and is executing):

private function onDragOver(de:DragEvent):void
  {
de.preventDefault();

var owner:List = this.owner as List;

var dropLocal:DropLocation = 
owner.layout.calculateDropLocation(de);
trace (dropLocal);

owner.layout.showDropIndicator(dropLocal);
}

However, the drop indicator is not visible. I set a breakpoint in the code 
above and it appears the width of the drop indicator is 0...

Any ideas how to get this working?

Thanks.

I think the dropIndicator gets its width/height in showDropIndicator.  I think 
there is default drag/drop code in List.  Compare your override against that 
code.

 I'm trying to restore tree state (selection and open nodes) across a

 use case also mostly works (I store the selection as guids from the objects
 in question and find them again after the refresh). But it seems I will have
 to handle openItem and closeItem, and clear the guid-based selection if the
 node is contained in the path being closed.

 Dan,

 Have you checked out our Flextras Calendar?
 Free developer editions are available so you can prove it'll work for 
your application.  ( 
http://www.flextras.com/?event=ProductHomeproductID=15 ).


 The component has no ties to a backend, but you could easily populate 
it with data from a CF9 server.

Re: [flexcoders] Tree - itemClose and change

2010-09-03 Thread Alex Harui
ValueCommit is supposedly for “any changes to selection”, the change event is 
supposedly only for user-initiated changes to selection.  The binding system 
listens to both.  The change of selection on close is currently seen as 
programmatic since the user didn’t directly do it, but I think there is already 
a bug that argues that change should fire as well.

Flex by default embeds css into your application. For Dynamic css, you
need to use the styleManager class and load the compiled style swf

[flexcoders] Issue with raw PDF in AIR

2010-09-03 Thread mads_mao
Hi guys,

I am really hoping you can help me shed some light on this issue. I am trying 
to download a PDF-file from the web. The file is generated by OpenOffice.org 
through the excellent JODConverter web-service. I have some Ruby code that will 
allow me to download the file and save it to disk. The code works great and the 
file opens without a problem.

I have now ported my code to ActionScript 3 in the hopes of using it to 
download the PDF-file directly from my AIR app. However, there are some 
FlateDecode blocks in the source of the PDF-file that I am downloading. Those 
blocks seem to get messed up by the Flash Player/AIR, when I try to write the 
file to disk using FileStream.
