[flexcoders] Re: how to show icon in ToggleButtonBar
Thank you Steve for the example.
(I also had a look at the links you provided :)
Though all seem very straightforward, somehow it keeps on disregarding showing
the icons, without any errors.
Looks like the itemRenderer 'forgets' to place the icons, even if the iconField
is set at the mx:Menu control and points correctly to @icon property of the
dataProvider :)
The icons are properly embedded of course!
As other matters are more pressing now, I will drop this icon looks
improvement and remain with the labels already there, while keeping on with the
main project development. When I have time I will look again to this problem
for the shake of it.
Thanks again for your help

The only way I've been able to accomplish this is to use a timer to filter
out a double click, and then ferry the original click event to an eventual
click handler. The downside to this is the hardcoded timer delay doesn't
reflect the user's system's double-click delay, and I'm not sure how to read
that in (I'm not even sure that Flex uses this anyway).

Hi Fotis, hi Wesley Thanks Wesley for the tip on VBox. (I was just looking how to face the same problem with a VBox here, when your post came in :) Then let me add one more such counter-intuitive setting I came across some time ago. I had a ADG with non-sortable columns, and I was trying (in vain) to get rid of the vertical separator bar that shows up in the column headers (that separates the sort indicator-arrow). In my case columns were non sortable and the arrow was just an empty space, thus no need for the separator bar. The setting that does the trick is: sortExpertMode=true (!!!)

I've seen this behaviour with dataGrid and I got stuck with it too, I asked here on the flexcoders mailing list. Basically when the items in a container are larger than its height. The container when it calculates the size of the children sets the minHeight to be a height that contains all its children. (or width). It then uses the minHeight as the height of the container. However if you explictly set a minHeight that is smaller than the sum of the children heights e.g. 0. This minimum height isn't overridden by the container. This allows the container to pick up its height property. Thats the tehory behind why I suggested it. I don't know if it works for VBox and I don't know if the problem applies to numeric heights as opposed to percentage heights. However I thought it may be worth a shot as its an easy thing to test.

[flexcoders] Re: Scale a Class file (png, gif, etc...)
Hi, Downscaling of a bitmap image can be done in a number of ways (downsampling is a better term and procedure). The real problem is: what do you expect the outcome to be, if you scale down a line graphic of 1 pixel width, or a detail in the bitmap of 1 pixel in the original 50x50 bitmap that has to be scaled to 15x15 pixels, i.e. 330% down!

Hi, Bitmaps aren't usually 'shrinked' (this or another way) as they lose in context. You should use a image processing program to first convert by downsampling to this lower resolution, and if you still can make out what the original image was like, OK. Otherwise you should 'enhance' the result to make up for the lost information. Sorry if there is no easy way to effectively scale down bitmaps.

export*, etc., so what's the point if they're not portable?
I thought the Flex compiler needed more information or I was not referring to
the instance names or something...so it just comes down to you don't have
the font? If so...why even bother?

Subject: Re: [flexcoders] embedding swf fonts
If I'm not mistaken, (AkzidenzGroteskBE -MdIt) means that you do not have
the font installed (or Flash CS4 doesn't recognize it)
and will be replaced with the default _sans font on your system when
compiling the swf.
So basically, the font is missing from the swf when you try to embed it in
Flex.

Subject: [flexcoders] embedding swf fonts
I have been handed a .swf file called akzidenz.swf
I have tried to embed only to get the following error:
Unable to transcode akzidenz.swf
After some quick research this apparently is common, and I thought this
article was interesting
(http://curiousminds media.wordpress. com/2009/ 06/04/embedding- irregular-
fonts-in- flex-3/), but it has yielded no solution.
So far, my Style block is simple at the moment:
@font-face {
src: url('akzidenz. swf');
font-family: (AkzidenzGrotes kBE-Bold) _sans;
}
When I open the file in Flash CS4 the Character Families are:
(AkzidenzGroteskBE- MdIt) _sans
(AkzidenzGroteskBE- BoldIt) _sans
(AkzidenzGroteskBE- Bold) _sans
(AkzidenzGroteskBE- Md) _sans
I've tried various ways of spelling, including/excluding parentheses and
_sans, leaving font-weight out, yet I cannot shake the
transcoding issue.
There seems to the agreement that font embedding blows in Flex, but there's
no consistent solution that I have found thus far.
Any help? Any truly useful articles? Any one want to share the font family
for PC with me? ($295 bucks...ouch. )
Thanks!

[flexcoders] Re: Sorry i am not a rocket scientist...
It is an oxymoron, if you have something to highlight.
But what is the meaning if you mouseOver a column header that has only one
function in context: That of a label to that column?
In a similar case (that's was the reason of my previous post) I use an ADG
where I must had to disable sorting for all columns. Then in ADG functionality
there goes this highlight when mousing over the headers as useless and
annoying, but confusing all together as to the meaning in context of such
highlighting.
I concider Patrick's first post makes perfect sense as a request. I also think
this is something that slipped in the original design of that control. My
personnal approach as a developer is to concentrate in the business logic of my
apps and not on how to correct mistakes/leftovers in the design of basic
controls I buy to use. Even more so by spending time playing around with
protected properties or, hacking the code I bought to use. IMO
BTW I have to thank once again all the great contributors to this forum.
Without their excellent help, I wouldn't have gone far enough in my work.
Thanks all

A rollover highlight is a change of color isn't it? If the header retained
the same color there would be no highlight.
If you could skin/style the rollovercolor to be the same as the
nonrollovercolor then that should achieve the required result. Of course, I
have no idea whether skinning/styles allows that as I have not tried it.

[flexcoders] Re: A ModuleLoader issue
Hi all, hi Rob.
As I work on the issue approaching it from a number of angles (also examining a
future Deep Linking), I feel necessary to detail on your replies:
According to
ADOBE FLEX 3 Adobe Flex 3 Developer Guide [page 1089]
You can disable history management for an entire application by setting the
value of the historyManagementEnabled property to false on the mx:Application
tag. When you initialize the BrowserManager to use deep linking, Flex does this
for you.
I ve done that as in:
mx:Application
xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
backgroundColor=0xe8e8e8 paddingTop=0
initialize=myInit(); historyManagementEnabled=false
This setting of property is simply disregarded and it keeps registering
components like Accordion and TabNavigator in the HistoryManager.as
This seems a very weird thing!
Any insight please as to the reason of this behaviour?
Thanks
George
PS1: I 've followed Tracy's advice with the html wrapper to no success. Thank
you Tracy anyway.
PS2: I keep on with Alex's suggestion, as I see no way to turn off the History
Manager (at application level, or at component level)- it just keeps turned on
always.
On the other hand from
Singleton.as
/**
* @private
* Returns the singleton instance of the implementation class
* that was registered for the specified interface,
* by looking up the class in the registry
* and calling its getInstance() method.
*
* This method should not be called at static initialization time,

Subject: [flexcoders] A ModuleLoader issue
Hi all,
I have the following problem with my current development. A client is
loging in the system either as customer or admin and accordingly the main
application through module manager loads either module1 or module2.
If a client is logged as customer (i.e. module1 is loaded), he is offered
a number of choices, leading to loading one of module1a, module1b, etc.
In every case the procedure is a unload previous/load next module through:
public function createModule(m:ModuleLoader, s:String):void{
m.url = s;
m.loadModule();
}
public function removeModule(m:ModuleLoader):void {
m.unloadModule();
}
Finally that client is logged out when finished.
Now if he does a new login as a customer, module1 loads and offers again
the customers options, but if he tries the same option (which leads to
loading module1a), an error is thrown, with the following message from
the Flash Player:
An ActionScript error has occured

Try putting this at the start of your module:
historyManagementEnabled = false;
It worked for me, but that was with a sub application (may be the same thing).

[flexcoders] Re: A ModuleLoader issue
Hi Alex, hi Rob,
thanks both for your replies.
Rob I 've tried your suggestion but it didn't help.. So after visiting Alex's
blog, doing some more reading and further invastigation (debugging) of my
problem, I have come now to the following:
- Alex is right about the Singletons. I traced the exact step where the app
throws that error as in the following code from HistoryManager.as:
private static function get impl():IHistoryManager
{
if (!_impl)
{
_impl = IHistoryManager(
Singleton.getInstance(mx.managers::IHistoryManager));
}
return _impl;
}
Now as I described in the first place, I was unloading/loading modules by the
standard procedure (and I had the problem). Running the loop as desribed
initially, when the flow reaches the line if (!_impl), the condition calculates
true and goes in to update _impl, and so throws the error (the second time it
runs).
If instead I don't unload module1a the first time client (role=Customer) is
logged out and then he runs again this option that loads again module1a, the if
(!_impl) condition, comes false, jumps to return _impl; line, and all goes well
- no error thrown..
This proves the point Alex said, but now I wonder what good is there to have a
module loaded all the time just in case the client decides to run this option
again.. before actually closing his browser.. I believe this defeats the
purpose and I rather have to consider re-writting that module1a in a totally
different style.
I hope this is clear enough.. What is your advise ?
Thank you again for helping me gaining insight in this esoteric problem..

Subject: [flexcoders] A ModuleLoader issue
Hi all,
I have the following problem with my current development. A client is
loging in the system either as customer or admin and accordingly the main
application through module manager loads either module1 or module2.
If a client is logged as customer (i.e. module1 is loaded), he is offered
a number of choices, leading to loading one of module1a, module1b, etc.
In every case the procedure is a unload previous/load next module through:
public function createModule(m:ModuleLoader, s:String):void{
m.url = s;
m.loadModule();
}
public function removeModule(m:ModuleLoader):void {
m.unloadModule();
}
Finally that client is logged out when finished.
Now if he does a new login as a customer, module1 loads and offers again
the customers options, but if he tries the same option (which leads to
loading module1a), an error is thrown, with the following message from
the Flash Player:
An ActionScript error has occured

[flexcoders] Time stamping a user Logout
Hi all, I have concluded a sample Flex application where a user logs in (or registers) in the application. I use the Tomcat servlet container plus BlazeDS RPC component and Hibernate persistence to connect to MySQL database. A new user first registers by filling the Registration form. The database is updated for First Creation Timestamp, along with user's UserName and Password. A returning user fills a (similar) Login form. The database is updated for Login Timestamp. When the user does a normal Logout, the database is updated with Logout Timestamp. On User's Logout the User_Loged session time is summed in UserTotalLoged time. My problem is that I need dispatch/listen (?) an event in an abrupt case, like the user instead of doing a normal logout simply closes the browser, or the client/server connection is just lost. Then I have to update the database that the user status is Logout. I hope this description is clear enough for some indications/help. Thank you all George
[flexcoders] Re: Time stamping a user Logout
Hi Laurent. Thank you for a quick reply. I had this (second) timeout option in mind and it's too static in the scope of my application. Then the ping procedure might be an idea.

[flexcoders] Re: BlazeDS server environment configuration
Hi again, following the information provided, I tried the tutorial Wesley provided, only the information in the article is of course rather sketchy - as the complete detailed description was provided in the source code used for that banner example. Unfortunatelly the sources provided are not available anymore (links, dowloads, et.c. don't work), as this article is outdated being 5 years old. So I can't really make much out of this. On the other hand what is described in that old article is generally correct, and this is the way I know I have to proceed. Only I still have to look for something more up to day and detailed enough for me to study and adapt to my case. Specifically, I look for an current BlazeDS/Tomcat/MySql environment setup detailed description for a Flex client connected to database by Remote Object procedures. Besides working examples, I still look for a book to read on the subject and documentation, in extend to BlazeDS developer's guide..

[flexcoders] BlazeDS server environment configuration
Hi all, I have a generic question. I am using Flex plug-in to Eclipse, developing the client side of an application. I also use Tomcat and BlazeDS on the server side. The development installation was done without any hassles and works fine. Also I don't have any problems with my development work, or the documentation available. The configuration I have is using Remote Object Component on the server side to get data from the database. For this I still use the database installed by the turn-key installer of BlazeDS (Hsqldb database supplied with samples in turn-key installer, though I use my own schema and done my Java classes for the purpose). I have to change now from Hsqldb to MySQL and also adapt/change the server installation environment to this end, i.e: still be using Tomcat and BlazeDS but with MySQL instead of Hsqldb. To this end I need more complete guidance info than what's in the BlazeDS Developer Guide. Is there any complete book/documentation suitable to the purpose? Any cookbook? Any help on this is greatly appreciated thank you all in advance for helping me George

[flexcoders] Advanced Data Grid - LockedRowCount property
Is there actual evidence that this property lockedRowCount actually exists (or has any effect) in Advanced Data Grid (of AS3 stable)? As I have posted this question before (and others did before me) but got no reply, I wonder what is the reason... Contrary to the above statements, the other lockedColumnCount works as adverised... So what gives with this one? Was it forgotten by Adobe? Any answer pro or con its existance, will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance George
[flexcoders] Re: lockedRowCount won't set
Hi, this is not a solution to your problem, that happens to be mine as well! I posted the same question on the Oct 30 - having missed your post - I actually came to the same findings you have, in my project. As there was no answer to your post, also there are no answers to mine. Testing exhaustivelly my code with the adg, I went on to test with standard code examples provided with the documentation, only adding this lockedRowCount=2 to the mxml code. The result was the same as with my more complex code, that I use itemEditors as Renderers. It had absolutelly no effect as if that was not set. Debugging the same way as you describe in your post, it always report a value of 0. To further detail the situation, I also tested the lockedColumnCount property (while I don't need it set) that proved working as claimed. So I will put it again: Is this property 'lockedRowCount' actually working? Is there anyone who ever used this property ? and how? Please shed some light, if you know. Your help will be much appreciated. Thanks George --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, jschacher_2000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have an advanceddatagrid that gets created in actionscript.

[flexcoders] Advanced Data Grid - LockedRowCount property
Hi all, I am developing with Flex Plug-In build 3.0.194161 in Eclipse 3.3.2 build M20080221-1800. The application includes a Advanced Data Grid control, that I need to have the first row locked for vertical scrolling. Setting property lockedRowCount=1, though accepted - doesn't produce any RTE, does nothing also. I.e. has no effect and the adg scrolls as normally. Further, after setting the property value equal to 1 (as required in my case), this property value is reported back as 0 (doesn't seem to get set ever). Any ideas? Thanks all George
[flexcoders] Advanced Data Grid with Grouped Columns
Hi all, using a ADG control and having set for groupedColumns. I also use ItemEditors set as Renderers. The mxml code snippet is attached. This works finw as long as I don't use the vertical scroll bar (if there are enough data rows in the adg to need scrolling). If I try vertical scroll, it always throws a RTE. This is not so, if I don't use groupedColumns. Then the adg and the application work perfectly stable. Any ideas? Thanks all George Attach Code mx:groupedColumns !-- column 0 -- mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField=JobPlan headerText=Column 0 id=adgC0 textAlign=center width=80 minWidth=80 editable=false sortable=false / !-- column 1 -- mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField=Doc width=61 minWidth=61 id=adgC1 headerText=Column 1 editable=false textAlign=center sortable=false/ mx:AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup headerText=Grouped Columns !-- column 2 -- mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField=SPA width=61 minWidth=61 id=adgC2 editable=true headerText=Start textAlign=left sortable=false itemEditor=NSStartP_ editorDataField=value / !-- column 3 -- mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField=EPA width=61 minWidth=61 id=adgC3 editable=true headerText=End textAlign=left sortable=false itemEditor=NSEndP_ editorDataField=value / /mx:AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup /mx:groupedColumns
