Re: [flexcoders] programatically assigning an ArrayCollection as the DataProvider bug...

[hank williams]

The exact thing that Jonathan describes below in the referenced email is happening to me. I am attempting to programatically create a bindable arrayCollection and use that arrayCollection as a dataProvider for a dataGrid. When I do this, only the last item in the list is selectable with the mouse.
I am getting the exact same results as jonathan. But according to the documentation, this is totally legal. In this thread, the theory was that the IUID was not there or that the object needed to be dynamic, but that cant relate to an ArrayCollection. This really feels like a bug because I should be able to create and modify a bindable arrayCollection without worrying about any wierd scenario. This should be flex 101.
So I am curious if anyone else can dynamically (not from a data service) create a dataProvider for a dataGrid using an arrayCollection and select any item in the list with the mouse.Betcha cant.Hank

Any ideas as to why this is happening?-JB

[flexcoders] Re: e4x adding attributes across members.

[coder_flex]

Just FYI,

My original approach worked and the total came out correct (internally
anyways the for loop is being called I guess)!

thanks for the help anyways.

[flexcoders] converting from screen display to print ready PDF

[Mark]

First off, I want to say thanks much for all the efforts not only of
the team that has created Flex but also a thanks to everyone in the
Flex community.

Now I'm gonna pose my question just to see if anyone can point me in
the right direction.  I have a flex application that has a few image
elements drawn within a panel.  I am then passing the X and Y coords
of those elements to a pdf generator and I'd like to create a hires
PDF that looks just like the view on the panel but with all hires
elements.  The problem is that I can't figure out a smart way to
convert the pixel coords over to inch/mm/pt measurements needed by my
PDF generator.

Has anyone had to do hi-res prints via PDF before?  Is there a better
way for me to do this than to try and generate a PDF on the fly? 
Thanks for any help.


::Mark

[flexcoders] Re: Newbie layout help.

[Tim Hoff]

You could start from the end and work backwards.  First, create a 
component from a single returned object and it's children.  The 
component will have two states, tileList and gridObject.  You can 
then use the component as the itemRenderer for the objects in the 
grid.  Since the componet uses states, you can change the state, 
from gridObject to tileList, when the cell item is selected or on 
rollOver.  Getting your custom grid setup will be the tricky part.  
You might want to think about using a repeater.

Re: [flexcoders] how do you dispatch event from a custom class?

is there anyway to enter an event into the event

not having it in the display list?

Re: [flexcoders] how do you dispatch event from a custom class?

[Ralf Bokelberg]

Either by instantiating it in mxml or explicitely by adding it using
container.addChild.

Ralf.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: databinding...

[Ralf Bokelberg]

Hi Doug,

binding is a one way connection. You need to bind in the other
direction as well.
If you instantiate your model with mxml you can use the same syntax as
in your textfields.

 
{firstName.text} 
{middleName.text}
{lastName.text}
 

Cheers,
Ralf.

Re: [flexcoders] how do you dispatch event from a custom class?

[Jon Hirschi]

I tried what you said and attempted to have the
WebServiceCheck itself dispatch the event, however, it
doesn't dispatch anything into the event stream, even
attaching an event listener to the variable return
variable doesn't do anything.

How do I make it part of a displaylist??

The only 'unload' event I know of in Flex 2 is in SWFLoader. Are your views 
SWFs that you're loading into a SWFLoader?

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Garbage collection and removeChild [Flex 2 beta 3]?

Thank you, this clears some things up. :)

I was actually allocating memory up to 100mb and then seeing if it's
collected by letting it sit there with no activity, and watching the process
memory usage (couldn't think of another way).

"You can later remove a component from a container using the removeChild()
method. If there are no references to the component, it is eventually
deleted from memory by the garbage collection mechanism of Flash Player."

The above taken from the doc's, lead me to believe that there was a garbage
collection process every (x)min's. If the player only does this when it
needs to get back memory, then that would explain why I did not see it
collected.

What lead me to the question was the following scenario:

I have a single component based on the viewstack for the views, this
component listens for event state changes in the program to load new views,
the events it gets come from another class (think observer pattern). So with
this I can load multiple copies of a view with different data(this is where
I seen a problem). Even though a view was removed from the viewstack it
still received data change events (which it listens to in order to see if it
needs to load new data (think chain of responsibility here) where each view
gets the event and decides if the data is destined for it (the data it self
is just a guid that I use to reference the xml data needed to be loaded).

The scenario may seem weird, but no object knows what data is being accessed
except the view that is responsible for displaying it.

If the view was really unloaded then the event should not get through. So
now I remove a view, and in the removed view I get ride of the listeners in
the unload event, clean up any child objects/classes/data providers etc..

So the view >> dataprovider >> modelloader >> etc..
>> controller >> etc..

>From what I understand from your answer is that if the view is removed, and
I clean up the listeners and "local" references i.e. (set dataprovider and
controller to null)

view >> dataprovider
>> controller

Then I should be alright. Is this correct?

My original thinking was that if it's removed to the garbage collection how
is it that it's still getting the events? I was thinking that this was a
protected space. I can't get the instance back from the garbage collection,
however the instance is still very much alive and kicking.

Is this making sense? Are these correct assumptions?

Thank you for your help.

Jason

What are you doing that you think should cause it to be collected? Do you
keep allocating memory indefinitely? An object may never get garbage
collected unless the Player decides it needs the memory.

> Should one have to remove all objects created through the
> or just on the child being removed?

I'm not really following your texavery >> toto >> titi example because you
didn't explain which one you're removing. Let's suppose you're removing toto
as a child of texavery. If you're not keeping any references to toto or
titi, then both become eligible for garbage collection; the fact that toto
holds a reference to its child titi doesn't matter, because the two of them
are isolated from all other objects.

> Is there a way to force the garbage collection clean up,
> or destroy an object completely?

There are no APIs for controlling garbage collection. Once there are no
references to an object, it becomes eligible for garbage collection. It
doesn't mean that it actually gets garbage collected.

Is your app exhibiting unbounded memory growth to the point where it
consumes all the machine's memory?

[flexcoders] Flex 2B3 - Feature request: smooth scrolling list

[Tobias Patton]

Hello Flexcoders;

 

The current behavior of the list control is to scroll in
increments of the tallest (or widest for horizontal lists) item currently
visible. When the list is small and the items big, this provides a fairly “chunky”
scrolling experience. I would like to be able to set the scroll increment
manually to provide a smoother scrolling experience.

 

If anyone has any ideas how to work around this problem, I’d
love to hear them. I’ve tried using a repeater, but when there are a
large number of items this can become very slow, even when the “recycleChildren”
flag is set to “true”.

 

Tobias.

RE: [flexcoders] Difference between two dates

Since the Date class is specified by the
EcmaScript-262 standard, we're not going to change it. But it sounds like we
should consider adding a flex.utils.DateUtils class in the future to make date
manipulation easier.

Well, it helped when I figured out I could do things
like date.date += 12 and it would automatically correct for rolling over
months/years.  But at the very least, there needs to be a built-in
daysBetween function.  Yes, yes, I know you can do the getTime()
arithmetic.  But every time you have to fall back to that, it feels
kludgy. 

If I were redesigning it, it wold at least ook like this:

dayOfWeek - what used to be called day
day - day in month (used to be called date)
month - 1 based like day (what used to be called date) is
hour/minute/second/millisecond - singular (if hour is plural, why not
"months"?)
year - why fullYear?  I mean, c'mon, do people really expect something
called "year" to be two digits or what?
daysBetween(laterDate:date) - laterDate minus this in days 

But, alas, it's too late.  There's no way they'll make the change at this
late day.

I mean "date".

Haha.

properties from the .NET DateTime class :o)

The following code (which

spot my error?

 

 

 

public static function
getMonths(startDate:Date, endDate:Date):Number

   {
var tmp:Date = endDate;
endDate = startDate;
startDate = tmp;
   }

   // Get number of months in years
   numMonths += (endDate.fullYear - startDate.fullYear) * 12
   numMonths += endDate.month - startDate.month;
   numMonths += (endDate.day - startDate.day) / 30; // This
needs fixing
   
   return numMonths;

RE: [flexcoders] toolTip type behavior for DataGridColumns?

[Gordon Smith]

DataGridColumn has showDataTips, dataTipField,
and dataTipFunction properties.

I'm wanting to add some toolTip type behavior when the
user rolls over 
some data in a DataGridColumn. It doesn't appear that the 
DataGridColumn natively supports toolTip behavior, but is there a way 
I can mimic one via the itemRollOver event? 

Something like popping up a Label just under the current x,y 
coordinates would suffice.

Re: [flexcoders] [F2B3] Could Adobe make Flex Framework available trough SVN?

[Carlos Rovira]

Yes, you say it, Hank, SVN is "the modern way" we use today to get lastest updates of our favourite projects, I think it will be the best option available. Hope Matt and others select that way finaly :)

I love the SVN idea. And you dont even need to post interim code, just official releases. This would allow us to update our projects in a very natural way. Of course it would be great to get unofficial bug fixes, but that shouldnt prevent you from publishing updates in a more modern way. They are two separate issues.

[flexcoders] Newbie layout help.

[Ian Skinner]

I have an object (coming from a ColdFusion CFC) that contains an array of 
objects that can be 28, 35 or 42 elements long.  I would like to display this 
in a grid 7 columns wide and 4, 5 or 6 rows as appropriate.  Each of these 
objects will contain a record set or another array of objects (I have not 
decided yet) that I will then want to pass to a tilelist inside each grid cell.

I can not see how to even start this kind of display.  Any help would be most 
appreciated.

Re: [flexcoders] how do you dispatch event from a custom class?

[Ralf Bokelberg]

Hello Paul

In your code you are creating a separate EventDispatcher, which is not
part of any displaylist. If you let your WebServiceCheck dispatch the
event instead, it should work. At least as long as it is part of a
displaylist.

Cheers,
Ralf.

[flexcoders] skinning scroll bar

[Chaitu Vadlapatla]

Hi All, Please help.

 

I created a fla/swf file with the name of AeonGraphical2.swf
and made sure to check the export for actionscript for each of the movie
symbols included in the clip. I used the CSS for the Aeon theme and changed the
names where needed. The symbols in the clip work in:

 

Panel

{

titleBackgroundSkin:
Embed(source="AeonGraphical2.swf",
symbol="ScrollThumb_downSkin");

}

 

 

But they won't work with the scrollbar sytle:

 

ScrollBar

{

 

    downArrowDisabledSkin:
Embed(source="AeonGraphical2.swf",
symbol="ScrollDownArrowDisabled");

    downArrowDownSkin:
Embed(source="AeonGraphical2.swf",
symbol="ScrollDownArrowDown");

    downArrowOverSkin:
Embed(source="AeonGraphical2.swf", symbol="ScrollDownArrowOver");

    downArrowUpSkin:
Embed(source="AeonGraphical2.swf",
symbol="ScrollDownArrowUp");

    thumbDownSkin:
Embed(source="AeonGraphical2.swf",
symbol="ScrollThumb_downSkin");

    thumbIcon:
Embed(source="AeonGraphical2.swf",
symbol="ScrollBar_thumbIcon");

    thumbOverSkin:

[flexcoders] FLEX 1.5 Webservice wsdl Location as a Variable?

[augie3333]

Hi All,
Is there a way to not explicitly name the wsdl path in a webservice
tag (example:: http://www.something.com?wsdl";>)?
I would like too basically set is as a variable? I have looked around
the Flex Doc's about this, but of course haven�t turned up any solid
answer if this is or isn�t achievable.
Thanks in advance for all your help,

-Augie Marcello III

[flexcoders] databinding...

[Doug Arthur]

I have a class that I want to be bindable with text fields... When the text field gets updated, the value for the attribute in the class should be updated. The problem is that's not happening the way I thought it should. Am I doing something wrong, or do I have the wrong  idea about the capability of databinding???

 
 
When the "asdf" button is clicked, I'm expecting it to display what's in the lastName field, but based on the updated attribute from the TexInpu.
 
package com.viva.model{ [Bindable] public class RecordData {  public var recordID:int;  public var firstName:String = 'Douglas';  public var middleName:String;  public var lastName:String;
  public var address:String;  public var city:String;  public var state:String;  public var zip:String;  public var heightFt:Number;  public var heightIn:Number;  public var weight:Number;  public var hairColor:String;
  public var eyeColor:String;  public var dob:Date;public function RecordData():void {   // constructor  } }}
 
 xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" label="Name / Address"

I actually solved the problem. I had to explicity handle it inside

weird. 

I've set up the following and it doesn't appear to work:



and my dataGrid as follows:





I even tried making with width of the column smaller than the 
displayed text, as I read where dataTips are only displayed 
for "clipped" text, and it made no difference.

Re: [flexcoders] [F2B3] Could Adobe make Flex Framework available trough SVN?

[hank williams]

I love the SVN idea. And you dont even need to post interim code, just official releases. This would allow us to update our projects in a very natural way. Of course it would be great to get unofficial bug fixes, but that shouldnt prevent you from publishing updates in a more modern way. They are two separate issues.

RE: [flexcoders] how do you dispatch event from a custom class?

[Jon Hirschi]

Hi Paul,

So I'm putting my event listener in the application
core.  What I would like is for this event to enter
the event stream and bubble up to the application
core.  Currently, it doesn't look like it even makes
it out of the document that I'm in.  I'm not even sure
that it gets populated outside of the class itself.

What i'd really like is to have this event entered
automatically into the event stream with out having to
have an event repeater.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Accepting MXML attribute's width in percentage on a custom component

I'm using anchors.
left="0" right="0" top="0" bottom="0"
It works better in some cases. (like resizes).

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Accepting MXML attribute's width in percentage on a custom component

[Tom Ortega]

What about the opposite?  Does anyone know of a way to set a width in actionscript to use percentages? i.e.:datagridcolumnVar.width = 25%;won't work.On 6/23/06,

I am actually having the same problem - 

I have a canvas with the width set to 100%. If I try and get the 
width in pixels through AS it returns 0.

If I try the same thing through mxml it works fine.

So this in AS:
public function getMiddle():Number {
 var x:Number;		
 x = mainCanvas.width*.5;
 return x;
}

--returns 0

in MXML:


--returns the amount in pixels.

Anyone out there know how to get the pixel value though AS?

nope... works for any list-based

in the datagrid, you set 
showDataTips="true"
 
then in the columns, you set 
dataTipField="fieldname"

[flexcoders] debugging app with metadata tags

[Michael]

I am trying to use metadata tags to notify my application
that an event has occurred.  Every time I try to debug my application I get an
error that says:

 

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method
of a null object reference.

 

Does anyone know if this is this something that is going to
happen or is this a bug?  I am running flex 2.0B3 on Jboss.

 

Thank you,

 

Michael

[flexcoders] Re: Accepting MXML attribute's width in percentage on a custom component

You can get the width in pixels if you use measuredWidth instead of 
width.

x = mainCanvas.measuredWidth*.5;

[flexcoders] Re: Flex2 B3 - Scroll Bar problems

[Tim Hoff]

minHeight and minWidth are usually used in conjunction with 
percentage-based height and width.  When the content becomes too 
small to view, the min values kick in.  This isn't a bug.  It just 
depends on how you set-up your view.  If you set the minHeight/Width 
of the canvas to an explicit value and the canvas' container 
(HDividedBox) has scroll polices = "false", the parent container 
acts like a mask; the scrollBars will not be visible or accessible 
because the underlying canvas extends beyon the parent's 
dimensions.  Does this make sense?  Since you explicitly defined the 
size of the text area, it will never get smaller than the set height 
and width dimensions.  Your choice here is whether to show 
scrollBars up the displayList or not.  It's actually quite logical.  
It just takes some forethought to apply correctly.  I learned a 
couple of things from answering your question.  Especially the 
clipContent="false" behavior.  Thanks.

I am actually having the same problem -

If I try the same thing through mxml it works fine.

So this in AS:
public function getMiddle():Number {

}

--returns 0

I'm wanting to add some toolTip type behavior when the
user rolls over 
some data in a DataGridColumn. It doesn't appear that the 
DataGridColumn natively supports toolTip behavior, but is there a way 
I can mimic one via the itemRollOver event? 

Something like popping up a Label just under the current x,y 
coordinates would suffice.

I didn't know that. That's certainly a bit
better! I was frustrated there was no AddDays() etc.!

 

 

> Yes, yes, I know you can do the getTime() arithmetic

 

You can't. Because once you detach the
length of time from the actual dates, you can't figure out the number of months
accurately (because of the difference in days). I originally did GetTime of
both dates, and then created a date from the difference (and took away 1970
years), but the length was then out by a number of days! :-(

I agree - it was the day/date that had me spending an hour to do simple maths!

This got me too... .year appears in the
intellisense, but when I used it, I got an error - WTF?!

It wouldn't be so bad if they'd actually
added a 2-figure year, but they dumped .year, and added fullYear. Grrr!

Difference between two dates

Well, it helped when I figured out I could do things like date.date +=
12 and it would automatically correct for rolling over months/years.  But
at the very least, there needs to be a built-in daysBetween function. 
Yes, yes, I know you can do the getTime() arithmetic.  But every time you
have to fall back to that, it feels kludgy. 

If I were redesigning it, it wold at least ook like this:

dayOfWeek - what used to be called day
day - day in month (used to be called date)
month - 1 based like day (what used to be called date) is
hour/minute/second/millisecond - singular (if hour is plural, why not
"months"?)
year - why fullYear?  I mean, c'mon, do people really expect something
called "year" to be two digits or what?
daysBetween(laterDate:date) - laterDate minus this in days 

But, alas, it's too late.  There's no way they'll make the change at this
late day.

I mean "date".

Haha.

The profiler is something that did not
make the 2.0 release.  We’ll be looking into getting it out in a later
release.

Hi all,

 

I would like
to know if a code profiler is envisaged for the final release of Flex Builder.

I’m
experimenting some very strange CPU consumption et memory leak, is there known
performance problems in the beta 3 ?

 

Next I will
try to isolate the problem to post it here.

RE: [flexcoders] [F2B3] Could Adobe make Flex Framework available trough SVN?

[Matt Chotin]

If you've ever done support though you'll know how many times someone
will say they're using the official release when later they remember
that "oh yeah, I did try that experiment a few weeks ago and must have
forgotten to undo it" :-)

We are not against the idea, but it will take time for us to figure out
the right way to do it so that expectations can be managed and we can
continue to be responsive.

That's easy :-)
Only offical releases and/or tags are supported.
Daily builds/trunk aren't - use at own risk.

I think many people would be happy with that.

RE: [flexcoders] Another simple flex newbie question

[Tracy Spratt]

You modularize mxml by creating
components.  Components can be implemented either in Actionscript or in
mxml.  Except for the implementation there is no difference.

 

To create an mxml component, create an
mxml file, and instead of using mx:Application as the root tag, use some other
tag, like Hbox, or Panel, or absolutely anything you want.

 

This is identical to saying in AS, “class
MyHBox extends Hbox”.

 

To try this, just cust some mxml text out
of your App, something that is maybe in a viewstack or a tabnavigator. Create a
new mxml file say “MYHbox.mxml” and copy that cut text into it.
Instantiate it in the location you cut it from using  Make sure there is a default namespace in you application tag:
xmlns=”*”.  Run the app.  You will see your component displayed.

 

Now, it is really a bit more complicated
than that, because you will probably want to pass data in and out of your
component.  But get this concept first, then we’ll tackle that.

 

Tracy

How do
you modularize MXML.

In actionscript we import classes, and each class represents some conceptual
chunk, but I am not sure what the equivalent is in MXML.

I have been looking at lots of code examples, but they are all small. This has
been very helpful in learning how APIs work, but I am on the edge of my two day
project feeling bloated and unmodular. 

I am sure, lots of people will say the answer is cairngorm, but for right now I
want to learn MXML "raw" before adding another layer on top of it.

Thanks
Hank

[flexcoders] Re: Flex2 B3 - Scroll Bar problems

[thunderstumpgesatwork]

Thanks for that info. This sounds like a bug then.

Why would setting the minHeight/Width on a child of a container cause
the scrollbars for that container not to show properly?

The minHeight and minWidth is necessary to prevent the canvas (or
actually I have a whole component) from sizing too small. This setting
of the minHeight and minWidth should cause the scrollbars to show on
it's parent container right?

This definitely seems like a bug to me.

[flexcoders] Re: e4x adding attributes across members.

[coder_flex]

Your answer involves looping externally (which is how they explain it
in the flex code sample). I was trying to avoid that and use e4x's
power to do the same. 
Therefore I was calling a function within the e4x expression. I know
that calling a function within e4x expression works because I am doing
other conversions on attributes. I thought the summing up of
attributes should work too.

Anyways, thanks for the quick response.

[flexcoders] Flex 2 the SWFLoader and some php

[talion_4]

I was wondering if anyone could give me a hand here, I've been trying
to get my flex app to load a swf out of a mysql database. I've stored
the swf's in a longblob column by manually dropping them in with a
mysql table editor. These swf's are mainly just simple animations
nothing fancy and they have no AS.

>From my understanding I should be able to just use
swfloadername.load("requestswf.php?id=631en")

Then my php is as follows:

$Query = sprintf("SELECT * from flex.phptest where id= %s",
quote_smart($_POST["id"]));

$Result = mysql_query( $Query );

if (!$Result || mysql_num_rows($Result) != 1) {
  print("HTTP/1.1 404 File not found");
  exit();
} else {
  $row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC);
  echo($row->slide);
}
}

However this only returns a byte or two on some swf's and on others it
can't decode the message. If anyone could drop me a hint as to what
i'm missing I'd appreciate it because google has had me running in
circles.

RE: [Junk E-Mail - LOW] Re: [Junk E-Mail - LOW] [flexcoders] RemoteObjects in components

[Shannon Hicks]

You can, I haven't gotten that far yet.
 
When you create your custom components, you can have 
methods that return values & objects. So, you could define the remoteObject 
in the component, and have a public function that would call the remoteObject, 
and return a object back to either the main application, or even to other 
components.
 
So:
 

 

 
and Myc.SomeFunction()

Re: [Junk E-Mail - LOW] [flexcoders] RemoteObjects in components

[hank williams]

Thanks. Its great to see some other code. I have learned a few things just checking it out.But one question. In looking at your code, I noticed that the remoteObject stuff is at the application level. Does this mean that you cant put remoteObjects in MXML components? I was hoping to modularize that.

RemoteObjects in components


Ok, so I just created a component. It needs to access remoteObjects. I 
defined the component as a canvas. But I guess canvas's cant have sub items that 
are remoteObjects, so a compiler error is thrown. But the whole purpose of this 
component is to display remoteObject data in a scrolling list. It makes sense to 
me that the remoteObject be "close" to the list. Although perhaps not. Perhaps 
ultimately the RemoteObjects should be in one place and the display in another 
to keep things highly factored (I know cairngorm again). So I would like to know 
how to place remoteObjects in a component, and how to place then in another 
component that might serve data to this component. 
ThanksHankPS At some point I am sure I will use cairngorm, 
but I need to understand how the real system works before I start using 
something that obscures or "simplifes" how things work. Otherwise I dont think I 
will be a good MXML coder.

[flexcoders] SOAP Serialization bug

[zosoo7]

Hello. We've encountered what appears to be a bug in beta 3. We are
using the mx:WebService, and when flex serializes the xml to send up
to our web service, it appears to drop namespaces on nested aggregate
objects that are in different packages on the server/web service. It
seems that it only does the namespaces correctly on aggregates 1 deep
in the graph, anything beyond that, namespaces get dropped. For
example, if you are sending up a person object to the service, and you
have person.address, address's namespace is fine. But when you try to
do person.spouse.address, address's namespace is dropped. Anybody seen
this?

If I have a RemoteObject service defined in a

remote service to use.

What I want to do is setCredentials() on *something*, right ? Can't use the 
result of calling the serviceLocator though, because that just returns an 
instance of the service, no ?

Without the source of Cairngorm 2, I can't see if serviceLocator has a 
setService, or some sort of public list of singletons or whatever.

Any and all (silly) ideas welcome.

[flexcoders] Re: About dates sent to a webservice. Is this correct?

[kellyb723]

Yes this is correct.  I recently had a long thread about this.  What I
was told by Adobe is that If a web service defined the element-type in
WSDL as `dateTime' and sends a value that does not include a time zone
component Flex "has to" assume that this is UTC time and will
automatically adjust the Date value to your local time zone.

You can read my previous thread, including a post by Peter Farland
(Adobe) that this behavior is by design, and my workaround at:

RE: [flexcoders] animated line charts

[Ely Greenfield]

 
 
 
There's no effect that draws it one point at a time...you 
probably saw a SeriesSlide effect, which slides the points on from offscreen. 
All the charting effects allow you to specify an elementOffset, where the start 
of the effect on each datapoint is offset from the next or previous 
datapoint.

RE: [flexcoders] Difference between two dates

[Daniel Tuppeny]

> things like date.date += 12 
 
I didn't know that. That's certainly a bit better! I 
was frustrated there was no AddDays() etc.!
 
 
> Yes, yes, I know you can do the getTime() 
arithmetic
 
You can't. Because once you detach the length of time 
from the actual dates, you can't figure out the number of months accurately 
(because of the difference in days). I originally did GetTime of both dates, and 
then created a date from the difference (and took away 1970 years), but the 
length was then out by a number of days! :-(
 
 
> If I were redesigning it, it wold at least ook like 
this:
I agree - it was the day/date that had me spending 
an hour to do simple maths!

This got me too... .year appears in the intellisense, 
but when I used it, I got an error - WTF?!
It wouldn't be so bad if they'd actually added a 
2-figure year, but they dumped .year, and added fullYear.

hour/minute/second/millisecond - singular (if hour is plural, why not "months"?)year - why fullYear?  I mean, c'mon, do people really expect something called "year" to be two digits or what?daysBetween(laterDate:date) - laterDate minus this in days
But, alas, it's too late.  There's no way they'll make the change at this late day.I mean "date".Haha.On 6/23/06, Daniel Tuppeny

[flexcoders] toolTip type behavior for DataGridColumns?

[djbrown_rotonews]

I'm wanting to add some toolTip type behavior when the user rolls over 
some data in a DataGridColumn. It doesn't appear that the 
DataGridColumn natively supports toolTip behavior, but is there a way 
I can mimic one via the itemRollOver event? 

Something like popping up a Label just under the current x,y 
coordinates would suffice.

Re: [flexcoders] Background Gradient??

[Peter Baird]

Title: Re: [flexcoders] Background Gradient??





I assume you mean a background gradient for the application.

In flex 1.5 there is, unfortunately, no property that you can set to have a background gradient color other than the default (there is in Flex 2.0).

However, that doesn’t mean you can’t have a background gradient, it just means it will take a little work.  On 1.5 projects in the past, we have create a simple gradient in flash authoring and exported it as a swf.  The resulting swf is usually smaller that 1K and can be set as the backgroundImage (be sure to set backgroundSize to 100% also).  

Otherwise, you can look into programmatically creating a gradient with ActionScript, which would be a quite bit more work, but you wouldn’t have to rely on bringing in a whole swf.

Hope that helps,

-Peter

[flexcoders] Re: Background Gradient??

[Renaun Erickson]

Gradient colors in Flex's CSS are done like this:
header-colors:#636B73,#F4F5F7;

But if you give "background-color" multiple color values it nulls the
value.
I tried with no luck,
background-colors:#636B73,#F4F5F7;

Re: [Junk E-Mail - LOW] [flexcoders] Another simple flex newbie question

[Jean-Luc ESSER]

Slash notation ???!!!
Is that actually working ?
 
Anyway, you should use dot notation, as said 
previously.
To add to my previous post, if you wish to go down 
several directories, you keep using dot notation :
MyDir1.MyDir2.* for example. Be carefull about case 
sensitive.
 
Best,
Jean-Luc.

You'll have to specify .* to get to the files 
inside your directory.
MyComp="MyComponents.*" should work.

RE: [Junk E-Mail - LOW] [flexcoders] Another simple flex newbie question

[Matt Horn]

You can use anything when you define a namespace. You need to match
whatever you use in your mxml tags; for example, if you name it fred,
then you reference the ButtonComp control with a "fred" prefix:


http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
xmlns:Fred="*">





In this case, the file ButtonComp.mxml is in the same directory as the
app that references it. The entire file can consist of something as
simple as:

http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"/>

hth,

matt horn

RE: [flexcoders] Difference between two dates

[Daniel Tuppeny]

I think I need more coffee
 
The following code (which I'm sure is correct!), 
returns around 2.8 when I'm expecting around 3.2. Anyone spot my 
error?
 
 
 
public static function getMonths(startDate:Date, 
endDate:Date):Number  {   if (startDate > 
endDate)   {var tmp:Date = 
endDate;endDate = 
startDate;startDate = 
tmp;   }  var 
numMonths:Number = 0;  // Get number 
of months in years   numMonths += (endDate.fullYear - 
startDate.fullYear) * 12   numMonths += endDate.month - 
startDate.month;   numMonths += (endDate.day - startDate.day) 
/ 30; // This needs fixing  return 
numMonths;  }

[flexcoders] Difference between two dates

[Daniel Tuppeny]

I'm struggling to 
get the difference between two dates in months...
 
I want to input 
something like Jan 1st and July 18th, and get something like 7.5 
out.
 
I tried using 
.getTime() and then creating a date from the result, but that's not accurate 
because of variable length months. I then wrote the below, but it only works for 
whole months (and I need decimals).
 
It would've taken me 
seconds in C# (DateTime - DateTime = Timespan), but I can't find any useful 
methods in Flex. Am I missing something simple?
 
 
 
if (startDate > 
endDate)   {var tmp:Date = 
endDate;endDate = 
startDate;startDate = 
endDate;   }  var 
numMonths:Number = 0;  while 
(startDate <= 
endDate)   {numMonths++;trace(startDate.month);if 
(startDate.month == 
12){ trace("reset"); startDate.fullYear++; startDate.month 
-= 
12;}else trace("inc"); startDate.month++;   }  return 
numMonths;

Re: [Junk E-Mail - LOW] [flexcoders] Another simple flex newbie question

[hank williams]

Ok, so in looking at the docs, to include a directory you  use xmlns:MyComp="*"This should as I understand it include everything from the main app directory.Is MyComp a reserved word that is the holder of the directory path, or could you use other words here instead of MyComp.

"bug compatible with IE"? I don't understand. IE does innerHTML
correctly. Firefox *completely* changed the structure of the document,
nesting nodes that should be siblings. If they can't make it work, they
should take it out - they shouldn't just leave non-standard buggy code
in there! :(

[flexcoders] Flex 2.0 profiling

[Damien Mandrioli]

Hi all,

 

I would like to know if a code profiler is envisaged for the
final release of Flex Builder.

I’m experimenting some very strange CPU consumption et
memory leak, is there known performance problems in the beta 3 ?

 

Next I will try to isolate the problem to post it here.

 

Damien

[flexcoders] Re: Please Adobe. Unanswered questions, and building the community

[george_w_canada]

I'd rather to sit and wait the release day of Flex 2. There's only
several days left (next week?) it will save your time a lot with the
official release but not beta version. You could buy or try it or use
SDK only.

This is why innerHTML isn't in the standard - trying to be bug compatable with

[flexcoders] Reloading flex app cuts breeze presentation sound (BUG?)

[João Fernandes]

I just found this one, i was listening presentation
in the background http://adobechats.breezecentral.com/p31075720/

And the sound just began to stop, I first thought
it was randomly but then I realized that each time I reloaded my flex 2 app,
this interfered with the presentation. The presentation doesn’t stop but
the sound stop working as soon as I reload my app.

[flexcoders] About dates sent to a webservice. Is this correct?

[Bas J. Brey]

You set a date e.g. 25th of January 2005
00:00 GMT +2

Flex sends it to the service as 24th of
January 2005 22:00 ?

 

If so than you can never use a “date”
type in your webservice cause then you miss timezone information.
