 Hello,
 
 I need a little help from the Flexperts on this list...  This seems
 like it should be easy, so I'm feeling that I've missed something...
 
 I have a .jpg that I want to use as our backgroundImage, 600x800, for
 the Application.
 
 I do NOT want it to be stretched to fill up larger browser areas, so
 backgroundSize=auto (default.)
 
 I also want this backgroundImage to be positioned at x=0 y=0, all the
 time, no matter how big or small the browser becomes...  
 
 The problem is that the backgroundImage for the Application gets
 centered, for the browser's' current size, no matter what I do.
 
 A weak work-around is to create a Canvas x=0 y=0
 backgroundImage=image.jpg/ and use absolute positioning for the
 Application.  But I wanted to avoid absolute positioning and keep the
 image at the Application level...
 
 Is this a limitation with FLEX, or more likely my thinking..?
 
 Thanks for the help,
 Paul


Any luck w/ this?
I am going back and cleaning up a beta app and this is one of the
things that I would like to fix. My beta app used the same
work-around of making a child canvas w/ a image background.

[flexcoders] Re: Binding to Microphone

[alanmorehead79]

Any ideas?

Is there anything that would restrict me from binding to the
components in the flash.media package? I am also unable to bind to
the NetConnection.connected property.

I would like to avoid setting up a timer function that repeatedly
checks the activity level on the mic.

 Is it possible to bind to the properties on a Microphone object?
 
 The following code is not working for me:

[flexcoders] RemoteObject - request timeout

[alanmorehead79]

Does anyone have an example of how to handle a request timeout for a
remote data service?

I have a RemoteObject in my app and it has a requestTimeout property.
Does this dispatch an event when the timeout occurs?

mx:RemoteObject id=myService requestTimeout=10
endpoint=http://localhost; destination=TestService
fault=onFault(event); showBusyCursor=true

I could create a timer that is started when the invoke event is fired,
but what would the point of the requestTimeout property be then?

[flexcoders] State changes w/ unloaded viewstack content

[alanmorehead79]

I am having trouble with trying to change the state of a panel that is
inside of one of my viewstack pages. 

I have a details page that changes when the user logs in. If the user
does not visit that details page before logging in, then I get errors.
I know it is because the components that I am trying to change the
state on has not been rendered or created yet. I need to have this
component exist so that I can make my state changes.

Is there a way to preload a content page for a viewstack or another
way around this?

[alanmorehead79]

That's exactly what I was looking for.

Thank you
