[flexcoders] Displaying UIComponents vertically
Hi, I'm having trouble with the layout of the musical score I'm displaying. It's generated from an xml file and I want the staves to be placed on top of each other but I can't make it work. I have a class which draws out the lines and the notes on it, so I instantiate that class, create the lines and notes, then create a UIComponent to add it to. There's three staves, so I do this for all three, then I add them all to a VBox which I display. I thought this would mean they'd be stacked on top of each other, but they're horizontally placed (the second two a little bit lower than the first for some reason). I'm assuming I'm missing something really obvious, so I'd be grateful if anyone could point me in the right direction. Here's the code: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; layout=vertical initialize=initializeHandler() horizontalAlign=left mx:Script ![CDATA[ import mx.containers.HBox; import mx.containers.VBox; import mx.containers.Canvas; import mx.core.UIComponent; import test.DrawNotes; public var myXmlList:XMLList; private function initializeHandler():void { //myXmlList = scoreXml.children(); // loop through this xml to get the attributes for the lines and fonts, but for now just hardcode it // MEASURE 1 var measure1:DrawNotes = new DrawNotes (); measure1.createLine(0, 0, 0, 20, Black, 0.3, ); measure1.createLine(350, 0, 350, 20, Black, 0.3, ); measure1.createLine(0, 0, 350, 0, Black, 0.3, ); measure1.createLine(0, 5, 350, 5, Black, 0.3, ); measure1.createLine(0, 10, 350, 10, Black, 0.3, ); measure1.createLine(0, 15, 350, 15, Black, 0.3, ); measure1.createLine(0, 20, 350, 20, Black, 0.3, ); measure1.createGlyph(1Et, 14, 55.5, #FF00, 14, q, , 58, 10, ); measure1.createGlyph(1Et, 14, 55.5, #FF00, 14, q, , 116, -2.5, ); measure1.createGlyph(1Et, 14, 55.5, #FF00, 14, h, , 174, 2.5, ); // MEASURE 2 var measure2:DrawNotes = new DrawNotes (); measure2.createLine(350, 0, 350, 20, Black, 0.3, ); measure2.createLine(700, 0, 700, 20, Black, 0.3, ); measure2.createLine(350, 0, 700, 0, Black, 0.3, ); measure2.createLine(350, 5, 700, 5, Black, 0.3, ); measure2.createLine(350, 10, 700, 10, Black, 0.3, ); measure2.createLine(350, 15, 700, 15, Black, 0.3, ); measure2.createLine(350, 20, 700, 20, Black, 0.3, ); measure2.createGlyph(1Et, 14, 55.5, #FF00, 14, w, , 408, 2, ); // MEASURE 3 var measure3:DrawNotes = new DrawNotes (); measure3.createLine(700, 0, 700, 20, Black, 0.3, ); measure3.createLine(1050, 0, 1050, 20, Black, 0.3, ); measure3.createLine(700, 0, 1050, 0, Black, 0.3, ); measure3.createLine(700, 5, 1050, 5, Black, 0.3, ); measure3.createLine(700, 10, 1050, 10, Black, 0.3, ); measure3.createLine(700, 15, 1050, 15, Black, 0.3, ); measure3.createLine(700, 20, 1050, 20, Black, 0.3, ); measure3.createGlyph(1Et, 14, 55.5, #FF00, 14, h, , 758, 0, ); measure3.createGlyph(1Et, 14, 55.5, #FF00, 14, h, , 874, 0, ); var uic1:UIComponent = new UIComponent (); uic1.addChild(measure1); var uic2:UIComponent = new UIComponent (); uic2.addChild(measure2); var uic3:UIComponent = new UIComponent ();

[flexcoders] Invoking other module's actions
Sorry if that was a little confusing...Here is the scenario. I have a module (myProjects) that has a viewstack (projectsVS) that allows me to switch between a 2 different sections (indexes). I want to, when the use logs out, make sure that the module's viewstack is set to selectedIndex=0, so when the user logs back in, its back on the first view in the stack...does that make sense. So, in my main application I imported the module (import edu.umich.mods.myProjects;) and in the logout function I tried to use: myProjects.projectsVS.selectedIndex=0; Funny thing is that Flex Builder's code hinting showed each piece as I typed it, but when I went to run it I get this error: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property projectsVS through a reference with static type Class.

[flexcoders] Re: Simplest way to create a webservice and deploy

Well done for coming to the right conclusion. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Tracy Spratt tspr...@... wrote: Yes, Web Services can be difficult. But, we need to be clear on our language. Vik, when you use the words web service are you using them in the specific, Flex sense, meaning using the SOAP xml protocol? Or are you using the words web service in the more general sense of accessing data over the internet? SOAP based WebService is compicated because the format provides for anonymous third parties to use the service with only the wsdl as documentation. If you ae not planning to make your back-end business logic tier available to anonymous third parties, then you do not nead SOAP. The easiest way to deliver data over the internet is to use HTTPService, which is XML over HTTP. This is what AJAX apps often use. You would simply build xml (as an object or string) and pass it back to Flex. You will get exactly the xml you build, unlike SOAP, that wraps your data in a bunch of other stuff. Of course you wont get any data type information, but since you wrote the service you will know the data types.

RE: [flexcoders] Java enum in Flex3
Thanks, Seth. I'd read the article, but your e-mail clarifies the issues. I've looked over our usage and I think we're safe for now, but this is sort of a time bomb, and it might make sense to fall back to just Strings. The only alternative I see is ensuring to use .equals() everywhere, which is tricky, especially when dealing with collections and other data structures (since they'll already be using the standard '==' equality checks). -- Maciek Sakrejda Truviso, Inc. http://www.truviso.com -Original Message- From: Seth Hodgson shodg...@adobe.com Reply-To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Java enum in Flex3 Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2009 21:14:29 -0800 Hi Maciek, I don't know anything about Granite Data Services but a quick google search returns this: http://www.graniteds.org/jira/browse/GDS-228 The reason why they're getting multiple instances of their enum AS classes during deserialization is layed out in the post I linked to below - without a readResolve() hook in the Player there's no way to support reading singletons out of the AMF stream. This means that you have potentially many duplicate instances of each enum value floating around in the AVM. It looks like they've defined an equals() method as an attempt to work around this, but while that's a standard method defined on Java's base Object class there is no equals() method defined in the core ECMAScript/ActionScript libraries. If I were using client side enums in ActionScript, I'd expect simple equality checks to work correctly and they won't with this approach. Each of these classes will also add a bit to your swf size, but that's a minor concern unless you're using tons of enums :) I don't know what other value these classes may provide, perhaps some help with data validation, but be careful in your code anywhere you're expecting them to actually be singletons because they generally won't be.

Any thoughts on Granite Data Services' approach? There is a custom externalization process for Java Enum objects, and a granite Enum class in ActionScript that all your (generated) Enums extend.

[flexcoders] Using FABridge with SWFObject 2?
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has been able to successful use SWFObject with the Flex-Ajax Bridge (FABridge)? The SWFObject wiki offers a modified version of FABridge.js is supposed to resolve issues with supporting the FABridge, but I have not had any luck with it. I have a simple Flex application with a function that calls alert: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; layout=vertical width=640 height=480 fab:FABridge xmlns:fab=bridge.* / mx:Script ![CDATA[ import mx.controls.Alert; public function test():void { Alert.show(You called?); } ]] /mx:Script /mx:Application And here is what I have on the JavaScript side: !DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd; html head titleFABridge Test/title meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=utf-8 / script src=bridge/FABridge.js type=text/javascript / script src=swfobject.js type=text/javascript / script type=text/javascript swfobject.registerObject(myFlashContent, 9.0.0, expressInstall.swf); /script /head body div object classid=clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-44455354 width=640 height=480 id=myFlashContent param name=movie value=out.swf / !--[if !IE]-- object type=application/x-shockwave-flash data=out.swf width=640 height=480 !--![endif]-- a href=http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer; img src=http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_playe\ r.gif alt=Get Adobe Flash player / /a !--[if !IE]-- /object !--![endif]-- /object /div input type=button id=bridgeBtn value=Talk to Flex click=var flexApp = FABridge.flash.root(); flexApp.test(); / /body /html I've tried a lot of different things with no success. Initially I thought the problem was related to compatability issues jQuery, although even by doing things manually It does not want to work. I also tried manually setting the bridge to use via flashvars: param name=flashvars value=bridgeName=testBridge / FABridge.testBridge.root(); But that did not do the trick either. Finally, I noticed that with the above code, it seems like only one external script, either FABridge.js or swfobject.js is loaded, depending on which one comes first, according to Firebug. I.e. when swfobject.js is loaded first, Firebug only sees it. When FABridge.js is loaded first, Firebug only sees that. Any ideas? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Keith
Re: [flexcoders] How to increase datagrid Last Column WIDTH
Columns are only resizable within DataGrid, and clicking / dragging columns does not change the width of the DataGrid. If I understand correctly you want to be able to expand the DataGrid by clicking and dragging the last column; is that correct? Off the top of my head, I don't know of any default way to do that.

[flexcoders] very strange combobox problem when switching dataproviders
I'm running into something fairly perplexing. Read the following code and think of what you'd expect it to do when you click the change button. Then run it and click the change button. ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; layout=vertical creationComplete=cc() mx:Script ![CDATA[ import mx.collections.ArrayCollection; public var d1:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([{label:one}, {label:two}, {label:three}]); public var d2:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([{label:a}, {label:b}, {label:c}]); //public var d1:Array = [{label:one}, {label:two}, {label:three}]; //public var d2:Array = [{label:a}, {label:b}, {label:c}]; private function cc():void { c1.dataProvider = d1; c1.dataProvider = d2; c1.selectedIndex = 1; } private function change():void { trace(); trace(); trace( before change: ); trace(c1.selectedIndex:, c1.selectedIndex); trace(c1.selectedItem: , c1.selectedItem.label); d1.removeItemAt(0); //d1.splice(0, 1); trace() trace( after change: ); trace(c1.selectedIndex:, c1.selectedIndex); trace(c1.selectedItem: , c1.selectedItem.label); } ]] /mx:Script mx:ComboBox id=c1/ mx:Button label=change click=change()/ /mx:Application What does it do? Well, the combobox changes from saying b to a. The trace says the following: before change: c1.selectedIndex: 1 c1.selectedItem: b after change: c1.selectedIndex: 0 c1.selectedItem: b This is completely baffling. My only guess is that somewhere in the guts of combobox or its ancestors, it is registering for changes on a dataProvider and not unregistering them when the dataProvider changes. List does not seem to suffer the same problem. If you comment out the ArrayCollection-based version and uncomment the Array-based version, it works as expected. My next stop is a bug report, but I figured it'd be worth bringing up in case anyone already knows of a bug report (kind of hard criteria to search for) or a workaround if you need to use ArrayCollections. -- Jason

[flexcoders] What comes out of a datagrid
Lets say I have 2 DataGrids, one has user info in it (populated with a binded ArrayCollection) and the other is blank (lets call it id=teamDG). You can drag the people from the populated to the blank to populate it. Got that part to work fine. When you have dragged all the people you wanted to the blank one and then wanted to save that new group of people, how can you go about saving them? Is there a specific array or object associated with that DataGrid (teamDG) which then you can pass to a function to populate a database? Any examples or tutorials out there? Thanks.
[flexcoders] AxisRenderer Embedded Font Bug?
I've got a vertical axis with an axisrenderer and I'm trying to rotate the labels 90 degrees. I'm referring to a font embedded in a stylesheet. The labels won't display - it appears that room is being made for the labels to appear, but the labels aren't getting rendered. I'm using MyriadWebPro as the embedded font and I've also tried this with Arial with the same results. I've also tried this with no label rotation at all - but no dice. If I stipulate a font family including device fonts, the labels will render, but no rotation is available. Has anyone seen this?

Well, the combobox changes from saying b to a. The trace says the following: before change: c1.selectedIndex: 1 c1.selectedItem: b after change: c1.selectedIndex: 0 c1.selectedItem: b This is completely baffling. My only guess is that somewhere in the guts of combobox or its ancestors, it is registering for changes on a dataProvider and not unregistering them when the dataProvider changes. List does not seem to suffer the same problem. If you comment out the ArrayCollection-based version and uncomment the Array-based version, it works as expected. My next stop is a bug report, but I figured it'd be worth bringing up in case anyone already knows of a bug report (kind of hard criteria to search for) or a workaround if you need to use ArrayCollections. -- Jason

Re: [flexcoders] What comes out of a datagrid
Hi Wally, We have something that's practically identical to what you have described. For ours, instead of waiting until all the people have been dragged, we setup a number of listeners on our blank ADG (DRAG_START, DRAG_ENTER, DRAG_DROP) and as soon as the person is dropped, we reference our sourceGrid.selectedItems property which has the pertinent information about the 'fella' that was droppedonce we have that, we hit our web service, passing the information, including the group change info to our db. Alternatively, you can take a look at your teamDG.dataProvider and see the data that's been dropped in it...

Well, the combobox changes from saying b to a. The trace says the following: before change: c1.selectedIndex: 1 c1.selectedItem: b after change: c1.selectedIndex: 0 c1.selectedItem: b This is completely baffling. My only guess is that somewhere in the guts of combobox or its ancestors, it is registering for changes on a dataProvider and not unregistering them when the dataProvider changes. List does not seem to suffer the same problem. If you comment out the ArrayCollection-based version and uncomment the Array-based version, it works as expected. My next stop is a bug report, but I figured it'd be worth bringing up in case anyone already knows of a bug report (kind of hard criteria to search for) or a workaround if you need to use ArrayCollections. -- Jason -- Jason
[flexcoders] Multiple views of same data
Hi, I have an application that requires multiple views of the same data. Thus, in practice, I would ideally like to have two DataGrids, each with the same ArrayCollection as dataProvider, but each sorted differently. I know that sorting a DataGrid sorts the underlying dataProvider, so is there any way to achieve this without having two copies of the data and having to update the second when changes are made to the first. Thanks for your help. Regards, Annette

[flexcoders] AdvancedDataGrid.SelectedItem - ??
Hello people, I am messing with an AdvancedDataGrid for the first time. Have read the Adobe docs and it appears that you can listen for ITEM_OPEN and ITEM_CLOSE and such and be able to access the current item. However, they in my case are always null. I am trying to figure out where in the tree hierarchy the user has clicked the mouse. Could someone give me a little nudge in the right direction? :) thanks, Libby Flex 3.x
Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex Feedback for the Future
I'd like a real wysiwyg rich text editor with support for images (text wrapping around an image). I'd like a companion text component that shows the rich text content correctly.

Better output is key, but I'd also like to see it move more toward a WYSIWYG-like editor like ColdFusion offers. FCK for Flex...basically. And on the display side, something like the AIR HTML component for Flex web appa would be nice. In short, better support for capturing HTML content (authoring, copy/paste, insert images,tables),storing it, and displaying it. Or something equivalent to HTML-like authoring for Content Management apps. A basic simple one would be to automatically convert typed urls to clickable colored links. Right now, my users have to re-highlight the text and set the color. You can't set the url and the color at the same time.

[flexcoders] Re: AxisRenderer Embedded Font Bug?
The problem sounds like it might be this bug https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FLEXDMV-1883 which was fixed in Flex 3.2. -Darrell --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Battershall, Jeff jeff.battersh...@... wrote: Additional info - the chart is in a TitleWindow. There seems to be a lot of posts about this and similar issues with charts within modules, etc. I just haven't been able to get the magic incantation that will make the fonts render.

I've got a vertical axis with an axisrenderer and I'm trying to rotate the labels 90 degrees. I'm referring to a font embedded in a stylesheet. The labels won't display - it appears that room is being made for the labels to appear, but the labels aren't getting rendered. I'm using MyriadWebPro as the embedded font and I've also tried this with Arial with the same results. I've also tried this with no label rotation at all - but no dice. If I stipulate a font family including device fonts, the labels will render, but no rotation is available. Has anyone seen this?

[flexcoders] Adobe Presentation Tool
So I saw Evan Gifford give a flash component kit lecture at Flex Camp in Orange County last weekend and he used the beta version of Adobe Presentation Tool and it was wicked. Problem is I can't find any mention of it anywhere except on Andrew Shorten's blog (here's a screenshot: http://www.ashorten.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/air-presentation.jpg). Is this for internal Adobe use only or...? I WANT IT!
[flexcoders] multiple select in List w/o holding ctrl key?
Hi All, I have a mx:List that allows multipleSelection. It works. But in order to do multiple select/unselect, i need to hold the Ctrl key, otherwise, it will be single select/unselect.

Re: [flexcoders] Login / Password Form
I made something like that where I use Flex to develop my UI and store the login info in XML file on the server. To read and write data to that xml file I use server side language PHP though amfPHP , Encryption can be done using action script library as3crypto but in my project we use JavaScript and PHp for encrytping these credentials on the wire (through the network).
