[flexcoders] AdvancedDataGrid (hierarchical) custom summary row on top
Hi All,
I have flex advanced data grid (hierarchical) with custom summary
row. I have used the concept of Dynamic Advanced List
(http://active.tutsplus.com/tutorials/flex/dynamic-advanced-long-lists-
with-flex/
http://active.tutsplus.com/tutorials/flex/dynamic-advanced-long-lists-w\
ith-flex/ )
I have a custom summary row that is positioned as footer. This works
fine without any issues.
I have a requirement to show the custom summary row as a top row
(locked row) in the advanced data grid. I have managed to position the
the custom summary row top of the grid. I put dummy object for the first
row in data grid and positioned the summary row after grid header row.
The problem I have is when we scroll the rows in the data grid the
summary row content is overlapping with grid rows.
Is there anyway that I can manage to hide the scroll able content in
the advanced data grid?
in adjustListContent I am positioning footer after header row by
override protected function adjustListContent(unscaledWidth:Number = -1,
unscaledHeight:Number = -1):void {
super.adjustListContent(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
listContent.setActualSize(listContent.width, listContent.height);
footer.setActualSize(listContent.width, footerHeight);
//footer.move(listContent.x, listContent.y + listContent.height + 1);
footer.move(listContent.x, this.headerHeight + 1); }
Here footer is custom class extends UIComponent
(AdvancedDataGridFooter)
public class AdvancedDataGridFooter extends UIComponent{
private var colAlignmentSet:Set; public function
AdvancedDataGridFooter(colAlignmentSet:Set) {
super();this.colAlignmentSet = colAlignmentSet;

Check out another possibility - using haXe for converting an MXML/Actionscript project to HTML5/Javascript. The syntax is extremely similar to Actionscript, so you could convert the MXML (via the option with the compiler to save the generated Actionscript from MXML) to haXe code, and the Actionscript too.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex to HTML5 Conversion tool?
Just to throw in my two cents... I would not hold out any hope for any solution that will magically convert your Flex app to a HTML/JS app. Not in 6 months, not in 6 years. I don't want to be a downer, but I just don't see it happening. Sure, we may see some tech demos that work on super simple Flex apps, but I think that's about as far as you'll get. You also might get tools that let you write a new app in MXML/AS, specifically with targeting HTML/JS in mind, and that might work well. But I have almost no confidence that you will ever be able to take an existing, large Flex app and magically get it to run well as an HTML app. I'd of course love to be proven wrong. My advice is that if you really need to target HTML/JS is to build it new from scratch. It's a harsh reality, and you're going to hate a lot of the toolchain, language, and process, but if you really do have the requirement that you need to have an HTML/JS app, you might as well just rip off the band-aid in one go instead of holding out hope for a holy grail solution.

Just to throw in my two cents... I would not hold out any hope for any solution that will magically convert your Flex app to a HTML/JS app. Not in 6 months, not in 6 years. I don't want to be a downer, but I just don't see it happening. Sure, we may see some tech demos that work on super simple Flex apps, but I think that's about as far as you'll get. You also might get tools that let you write a new app in MXML/AS, specifically with targeting HTML/JS in mind, and that might work well. But I have almost no confidence that you will ever be able to take an existing, large Flex app and magically get it to run well as an HTML app. I'd of course love to be proven wrong. My advice is that if you really need to target HTML/JS is to build it new from scratch. It's a harsh reality, and you're going to hate a lot of the toolchain, language, and process, but if you really do have the requirement that you need to have an HTML/JS app, you might as well just rip off the band-aid in one go instead of holding out hope for a holy grail solution.

If my understanding is right, Adobe is working on it currently. So you might have to wait for another 6 months or so. If that time frame is not suitable for you, I suggest you rewrite the project in HTML 5.

A very long time ago I designed a tool called ezX that was similar to Flex but not nearly as robust. That was an Xwindows tool and has since gone the way of the dinosaur. I'm still researching but I think a tool like pyjamas pyjs.org might be a building block. You could write an xml parser to handle the mxml to dom and then use the dom to generate pyjamas class definitions (which you would probably have to tweak by hand). I'm not sure about the action script. Source parsing is too tricky and I don't know if the byte code is easy to handle. Might be better to outsource that overseas.

Hi Group, I have a quick question. I have a web application that was developed using 100% flex (AS included). Now to be on the safe side we want to evaluate the options of converting the same on to HTML5. Do any one know of any tools that can help in the process of converting from flex (developed) to html5 version? Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Re: [flexcoders] RE: AIR/Window/DataGrid Issue
That’s a very puzzling stack trace. I have no idea how you can get into this situation. Do you have a simple test case? The moduleFactory subsystem relies on instantiating classes in a module via moduleInfo.factory.create(). The children of that class have moduleFactory propagated to them as they are added to their parents. Calling some function on a module that calls PopUpManager.createPopUp() bypasses the subsystem because the popup is added to the systemManager and some class that has its moduleFactory set to the right place. Is that what is going on in your code? There is a moduleFactory parameter to createPopUp you can use.

Since Reader was upgraded to 10.1 PDFs no longer display properly using HTMLLoader in our AIR app. If we un-install 10.1 and re-install 9.4 everything works fine. So, due to nothing on our end all our customers have broken PDF views in our AIR application. Thanks a bunch Adobe. Anybody experiencing this problem? Kevin

[flexcoders] ADT build from outside application directory?
The adobe docs for ADT say: The -package command should be run from the main application directory Is there any way to run ADT from a different location that the main application source. So for e.g I am trying to integrate with a ANT build system, I have my ANT scripts in the builds/ location while my application is in source/appname/src.? It seem unusual to force the build to be executed from the same location as the application directory. TIA -superabe
[flexcoders] Accessing functions from an embedded SWF from Flash
Hello, I'm upgrading and existing Flex 3.5 website to Flex4.5, I have a small Flash created SWF file that has functions on it. In Flex i embed it using SWFLoader, and i need to call a function on the embedded SWF. Tryied it in many diferent ways with no success. The SWF loads, runs, but i can't call one of it's functions from Flex 4.5 Any ideas or example will help, since i've been stuck with this for many days, Thank you.
