Does anyone have a good example of manually tool-tipping the thumb on

You need a [Bindable] meta tag in front of every property you need to

Re: [flexcoders] Running a flex app from local file system

[Andrew D. Goodfellow]

Hi Greg,

I think if you go to "Project | Properties | Flex Compiler" and add "
-use-network false" to the Additional Compiler Arguments that might do the
trick.

You'll need to rebuild. I think the problem you are having is due to
security constraint built into the Flash player. It will allow the swf to
either load external resources via HTTP from the network OR from the local
filesystem. Both are not allowed, you have to choose a setting for one or
the other when you build/publish.

I have an image in a ByteArray and I want to display it within a specific
width and height inside an Image object. Here is my logic:

private var urlloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
private var loader:Loader = new Loader();

urlloader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.BINARY;
urlloader.data = ByteArray(imageByteArray);
loader.loadBytes (ByteArray(urlloader.data));
var child:DisplayObject = previewImage.addChild(genericLoader);




When it displays it does not scale automatically, it simply displays at
1:1 of the original ByteArray image. If I set child.width and child.heightto 
specific values (
i.e. 215x260) the Image (or child) just doesn't display.

I CAN change scale directly or use a Matrix to scale it, but the problem
there is that the child.width and .height are returning 0 so I can't
calculate the correct scale.

Any ideas???

I feel like I must be missing something. I have a Loader object that I am
loading image data to, sometimes as a URLRequest and sometimes as a
ByteArray. It depends on if I am getting the data from an upload or from the

How do I go about getting a ByteArray back out of the Loader object? I have

and everything worked except  I had to change  mx.effects.EffectInstanceto
mx.effects.IEffectInstance.  This was well documented.

The bottom line to Mac users going from Beta to 2.0.1... Uninstall beta
then reinstall 2.0.1

Dave Carabetta said the following:

 John,

This link should give you all the info you need as far as what is changed
and fixed in the new release:

http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/flex/2/releasenotes_flex201_sdk.html


Further, and I'm not saying it will definitely fix your problems, but you
may want to make sure you do a "clean" build just to make sure all remnants
of the 2.0 build are removed in favor of the 2.0.1 code base. That's found
under "Project -> Clean..." in Flex Builder.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex/Flash on The iPhone ?

[Andrew D. Goodfellow]

Maybe I'm wrong, but I saw a bunch of tiling going on when Jobs was zooming
in and out. I also noticed the compression changes when the zoom-in finished
from low quality to high. All that makes me wonder if there isn't some
"faking-it" going on for the zoom feature. Almost like a mapping program for
a web-page, where the iPhone Safari browser renders the web-page into a
buffer off screen and then clones it to a bitmap and uses that to display
and scale up/down on the phone.

IF that is the case that will cause huge problems with motion graphics on a
web-page displayed in the iPhone (ie, they will not animate). I tried to
look for animations on his demo's of NYT and Amazon but I wasn't able to
spot any, Maybe someone else did?

Thoughts / other observations?

Do you have dual mouse events when someone uses User Accessibility to zoom
in on XP or OS X? :)

Through Safari, the flash movie wouldn't see anything special. Now, if
they opened up widgets to use FP9, then I'm sure there's going to be some
new mouse events.

Re: [flexcoders] FLV Thumbnail

[Andrew D. Goodfellow]

John,

I don't do it in AS. I always process the flv on the fly (with caching of
course) with an open source tool called ffmpeg (
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffmpeg/) and load the thumbnail via url just
like an external image. It's tricky to get it working, but once you do it
works wonderfully.

  I'm trying to generate an image thumbnail of an FLV and can't seem to
find any way to do it. Only thing that people seem to be doing is
creating a player for the flv, then pausing and stopping the stream -
I want to grab an image of the one of the flv frames. I found a piece
of code here:

http://www.flash-db.com/Tutorials/snapshot/snapshot.php?page=2

which i tried to implement with code like this in onFrameEnter:

//Here we will copy pixels data
pixels = new Array()
//Create a new BitmapData
snap = new BitmapData(_video.width, _video.height);
//Matrix to scale the new image
var myMatrix:Matrix = new Matrix();
myMatrix.scale(0.5, 0.5)
//Copy video image
snap.draw(_video, myMatrix);

var w:Number = snap.width, tmp
var h:Number = snap.height
var a:Number = 0
for(var b=0; b<=h; b++){
tmp = snap.getPixel32(a, b).toString(16)
trace(tmp)
pixels.push(tmp.substr(1))
}
a++
if(a>w){ //Finish capturing

//sendData(pixels, h, w)
//free memory
snap.dispose()

}

Now, it seems like the pixels are being captured, but I'm not certian
and I can't seem to display the captured image at all. I've tried
using an image object and a Bitmap set to the BitmapData (variable
snap) but it doesn't display. Anyone know of how to make this work,
or a better way?

Thanks,

John

Re: [flexcoders] security issues when capturing flex screens that contain other domain bitmaps

[Andrew D. Goodfellow]

I literally just hit this problem now too. Did you ever receive a solution Hank? Anyone else?-AndyOn 9/26/06, hank williams <

[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:












  



I have a flex screen that I want to capture into a bitmap using the
technique that Andrew Trice described earlier this week.

it works as so:



private function getUIComponentBitmapData(target:UIComponent):BitmapData{
var bd : BitmapData = new BitmapData( target.width, target.height );
var m : Matrix = new Matrix();
bd.draw(target,m);
return bd;
}


I am feeding that function a UIComponent that contains an image that
looks like this:




	verticalAlign="middle"
	horizontalAlign="middle"
	source="{model.picture_http}" width ="200" height="200"/>



The problem is that the model.picture_http is on another domain.

The error I get is as follows:


SecurityError: Error #2122: Security sandbox violation:
BitmapData.draw:
http://localhost:8080/elroyServer/songmail/songmail-debug.swf cannot
access http://storage.elroynetworks.com/0922337203685477580744.


A policy file is 
required, but the checkPolicyFile flag 
was not set
when this media was 
loaded.


This seems to suggest that I need a crossdomain.xml file, which 
is
fine. I have that, and I believe it is in the right place. The problem
is I am supposed to set a checkPolicyFile 
flag. The doc's explain how
to do this, but not in the context of Flex. 
The docs say:


When you load the image using the load() method of the
 Loader class,
you can specify a context parameter, which is a LoaderContext object.
If you set the checkPolicyFile property of the LoaderContext object to

true, Flash Player checks for a cross-domain policy file on 
the server
from which the image is loaded. If there is 
a cross-domain policy
file, and the file permits the domain of 
the loading SWF file, the
file is allowed to access data in the Bitmap object; otherwise, access
is denied.

You can also specify a checkPolicyFile property in an image loaded via
an  tag in a text field. For details, see Loading SWF files and
images using the  tag in a text field.


I dont know how one would use the "load() " command from MXML.
Moreover, I would really like an MXMLish way to deal with cross domain
issues.

Has anybody dealt with this?

Hank

It seems like this would pretty a pretty common use-case for this component...

Re: [flexcoders] XMPP AS3 class libraries on Labs

[Andrew D. Goodfellow]

Hi Danny,Any word on an update? There are several issues that are not compatible with the full release. StringBuilder and flash.util are a few. I have corrected all the errors and warnings, however many of the tests are failing and if there is an imminent update I will wait on debugging the old code in favor of new. Thanks!

Hi Joao,Those libraries should work with the release version of Flex Builder. I will double check and make sure though. What errors are you running into?Also, I will be making an update to these libraries very soon. They are still under development and the next update should be much more stable.

Hi there,

I started playing around with the available XMPP(Jabber) classes on Labs but I've got some errors.

Are those still under development or can already be used?

Thanks,

João Fernandes

[flexcoders] Flex 1.5 - How can I make a ColumnSeries always show datatips?

[Andrew D. Goodfellow]

Hi all,

I've scoured the forums and don't see a way to make the dataTips
always show for a ColumnSeries chart. I'd like them always on instead
of just on mouse over... Anyone know how? TIA!

-Andy

[flexcoders] Flex 1.5 Box container component that wraps?

[Andrew D. Goodfellow]

We're all super familiar with the HBox and VBox containers. Has anyone
extended one of these to get a wrapping behavior? Almost like an
HVBox? :) I want to create a tag cloud using Link components to look
like: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/ I don't think Grid or Tile
will give me the functionality I'm looking for because it will be
really hard to cluster them up together when they have differing
heights and widths.

I guess I'm looking for some suggestions for the best way to tackle
it. Anyone have any? Thanks in advance...

-Andy

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 1.5 HTTPService Fault: An XML element was malformed

[Andrew D. Goodfellow]

Thanks Tracy, that did help. Now I'm getting a wierd fault back that says it can't parse the HTTP response, but everything is posting ok. I'll just catch the fault for now. Thanks again!-Andy

Seriously, call the HTTPService url
directly from a browser.  What you get back will probably show the problem.

 

Ah, also, I am not sure that adding
querystring data to the url is supported.  Instead, put your data into a
request object and then call the naked url.  This way you can use POST, which
can carry more data, more securely, and with less issues with escaping.

 

It is partially supported.  I found this
in the docs:

url

url
:
String   

Location of the service. The specified URL should not contain any query
parameters (? followed by name/value pairs), unless the HTTP method is GET and
the 
 tag contains no request parameters.
Currently you can only add parameters to the URL if you set it through
ActionScript, not the tag. Use either the url
 property or the serviceName
 property, not both.

 

Still, it is an ugly way to do it.  Use
the request Object.

var sReqParam:String = "SEL_EVENT"
+ sWhatever;

var oRequest:Object = new Object({sql: sReqParam
})

eventHTTP.send(oRequest
);

 

Tracy

HTTPService Fault: An XML element was malformed



 

Does anyone know why when I run this code I get an error that says:
"HTTPService Fault: An XML element was malformed."? It seems to only
happen when I escape things like & and # into the URL.
