[flexcoders] flex2 accessibility
Hi, I am hoping someone could point me to any documentation on flex 2 accessibility. I notice there is an accessibility option for the compiler - but this is off by default. Is this off because it is currently a developer beta? What difference does it make to the swf if you compile with it set to true? Can it be set at runtime? And most importantly - what accessibility does it provide (screenreader support? changable text size / colour contrast? tab management?). Basically I am trying to push flex 2 to a few clients right now and know this is going to be the first question asked - Does it cover all legal requirements over accessibility?. Any pointers over this will be a great help.

Re: [flexcoders] Mac Flex developing
Hi Ted, No media imports - just actionscript and mxml files. Files does seem to be the major factor in the speed - it states it is getting 546 files - there are maybe 40 in my project so i'm assuming it is extracting all the flex framework files every time it compiles? thanks for the tips with compc - i haven't got round to putting in the media assets yet - i figured it'd slow compile times down so am going to skin the project right at the end... and will certainly look into putting them in a swc file. cheers, Al On 24 Mar 2006, at 14:36, Ted Patrick wrote: Al, This actually looks to be more related to media imports. The 8458ms time next to files should stick out. That looks like media processing to me. In Flex 1.5, this aspect of compilation is the most resource intensive. Are you: 1. Embeding Fonts 2. Embedding Images, GIF, JPEG, PNG, SWF 3. Embedding Audio The ASC compiler and MXMLC compiler are very fast but when tasked with embedding images, font to glyph conversion, audio, it is slower. This is actually one of the illusions of compiler performance. MTASC and ASC are somewhat comparable ( ASC is faster but very few have seen it standalone! ) but when you add media encoding, MXML to AS translation, AS compilation to ABC, and finally SWF assembly, MXMLC obviously takes longer. This is the same exact logic in why Flash compilation times are much slower than MTASC. Obviously when you must encode every single character in a font into a glyph, encode images, and encode audio, compilation will take exponentially longer. There is a trick here. You can use COMPC to precompile media assets into SWC. The SWC format is directly injected into the SWF bytecode and thus requires no compiler think time. Moving media compilation to SWC speeds compiler time 10 fold. My 2 cents, Cynergy Systems, Inc.

Re: [flexcoders] Mac Flex developing
I develop flex 2.0 on a mac with flex builder beta 1 i had a great set up by copying the files from the windows plugin. for me the debug view worked perfectly. For editing i used the oxygen plugin as the flex builder one for mxml crashed eclipse and the AS editor had a cursor that jumped around the page as you typed... not workable at all. I used the xsd from flex 1.0 and updated the namespace to get code completion with oxygen for mxml.with beta 2 copying the files across doesn't do anything to my eclipse. it just ignores them completely... so i've had to set up an ant build to run mxmlc... a real pain because i've lost error checking on save and more importantly mxmlc takes 10-15 seconds from the command line.. but only took about 1 second from flex builder with beta 1. no idea why it takes so much longer.for traces i would advise using the debug player and setting it up so traces are written to a text file (by creating an mm.cfg file). There is an eclipse plugin called flash log from paul spitzer - which outputs the contents of this file to an eclipse panel. paul's website is no longer online... feel free to email me offlist if anyone wants me to send them the plugin.so developing flex on a mac is a bit of a pain... but i still love it (flex and the mac).cheers, AlOn 23 Mar 2006, at 20:09, Richard Leggett wrote: I didn't see whether you specified 1.X or 2.0, and I'm sure someone else will be better able to speak about Flex 1.X, but I might be able to offer some insights for Flex 2.0.

[flexcoders] mac debug player
Hi, Am currently enjoying messing around with the flex2 beta but as i work on a mac i have had to piece together a working environment for myself (mxmlc, eclipse, oxygen, asdt, ant works pretty sweet for the purpose). The mac 8.5 alpha release was the debug player so i could use trace and look at the logs to see what was happening - however the beta player for the mac is not the debug player - which makes things difficult. I have ported the asdt logging classes to as3 - so can use that - but if the socket server isn't running it causes the browser to crash (a bug?). So basically... can I get the alpha 8.5 mac flash player back (if anyone has it can you email it to me)? or can i get the beta debug flash player for the mac from anywhere? thanks for helping a stubborn mac user :) cheers, Al -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
