[flexcoders] SliderThumb / Canvas Movement Syncronization
Hi all, I havea VSlider control that uses a custom sliderThumbClass (Image). In the same view as the VSlider, thereis a small Canvas that I want to move up and down; right along side of the SliderThumb. I've banged on it for a while, but haven't found the right approach to syncronize the vertical movement of the SliderThumb and the Canvas. Any ideas?

[flexcoders] Autoscrolling Text
Hi all, I wanted to ask, if somebody can let me know, how I can create a autoscroll text. As I will have a fixed screen size, I would like to display the text in a textbox, and check the text, if it surpasses a certain length. If the complete text can not be displayed in the textbox (as it is too small), I would like to create an automatic scrolling text, that just scroll the text down and then starts again. If the autoscrolling is too complicated, could I somehow implement a listender, that reacts on a mouse click on the textbox and then displays the next portion of the text? Thanks a lot for your tipps.

You're running into a difference between an XMLList (a built-in E4X
type, along with the XML type) and XMLListCollection (a Flex framework
type).
If the right-hand-side (RHS) of the E4X += operator is an XML instance
or an XMLList instance, it inserts children as you are expecting.
For example, suppose var x:XML = ab//a.
Then x.b += c/ sets x to ab/c//a. (This is the case where
RHS is an XML instance.)
And x.b += c/c// sets x to ab/c/c//a. (This is the
case where RHS is an XMLList instance.)
(Note that you can't write an XMLList literal as c/c/; it doesn't
compile. You wrap the nodes of the list between and /.)
However, if the RHS is any other type, then it calls toString() on the
RHS and inserts it as text, not as child nodes.
For eample, x.b += foo sets x to abfoo/b/a.
You can't have and in XML text, so they get converted to the XML
escape entities lt; and gt;
For example, x.b += c/ sets x to ablt;c/gt; /b/a.
Since E4X doesn't know about XMLListCollection, it treats it like any
other type and converts your XMLLC to a string and then escapes it. I
don't know of any way to directly convert an XMLListCollection to an
XMLList without looping over the items, which is similar to what
you're doing extract one XML from the XMLListCollection at a time.

Igor,
thx for your answer, but i think something isnt clear...
my problem is on the += operator in this line of code:
xgravar.root.request += XMLLC;
the XMLLC object is declared as:
mx:XMLListCollection id=XMLLC
collectionChange=collectionEventHandler(event)/
and have, at the time this line of code fire, the follow XML
TipoVeiculo Id=1 Nome=Moto Descricao=desc
TipoVeiculo Id=2 Nome=Carro Descricao=desc
TipoVeiculo Id=3 Nome=Caminhao Descricao=desc
TipoVeiculo Id=4 Nome=Aviao Descricao=desc
just that. (without a root node).
the root node is at xgravar.request.
but, when i do:
xgravar.root.request += XMLLC;
and after Alert.show(xgravar.toXMLString()) the code is changed to:
ds
root
request
ltTipoVeiculo Id=1 Nome=Moto Descricao=descgt
ltTipoVeiculo Id=2 Nome=Carro Descricao=descgt
ltTipoVeiculo Id=3 Nome=Caminhao Descricao=descgt
ltTipoVeiculo Id=4 Nome=Aviao Descricao=descgt
/request
/root
/ds
i have made a workaround for this with the follow code:
for each( var item : XML in XMLLC ) {
XML(xgravar.root.request).appendChild(item);
}
but i think that the += operator SHOULD do the same thing WITHOUT
changing the and simbols.
dont you agree?
best regards to you!

[flexcoders] Re: reorder datagrid columns
Hey,
If all you want to do is organize the column order you can manually
set up columns in the appropriate order.
The flex docs show a way to hide and show columns, so assuming they
are in the right order that would work.
Essentially you name each column with an ID and then toggle the
visibity.
Otherwise, you could use an addChild and removeChild in a method.
Remember columns are just another object so just treat it that way.
Examples for the Docs:
Hiding and displaying columns
If you might display a column at some times, but not at others, you
can specify the DataGridColumn class visible property to hide or show
the column. The following example lets you hide or show the album
price by clicking a button:
?xml version=1.0?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
mx:DataGrid id=myDG width=350
mx:dataProvider
mx:ArrayCollection
mx:source
mx:Object Artist=Pavement Price=11.99
Album=Slanted and Enchanted /
mx:Object Artist=Pavement
Album=Brighten the Corners Price=11.99 /
/mx:source
/mx:ArrayCollection
/mx:dataProvider
mx:columns
mx:Array
mx:DataGridColumn dataField=Artist /
mx:DataGridColumn dataField=Album width=175 /
mx:DataGridColumn id=price dataField=Price
visible=false/
/mx:Array
/mx:columns
/mx:DataGrid
!-- The column id property specifies the column to show.--
mx:Button label=Show Price click=price.visible=true; /
/mx:Application
Example2:
Creating Children: (this case is a textarea, but you can define a
column just as well)
// Declare two variables for the component children.
private var text_mc:TextArea;
private var mode_mc:Button;
override protected function createChildren():void {
// Call the createChildren() method of the superclass.
super.createChildren();
// Test for the existence of the children before creating them.
if (!text_mc) {
text_mc = new TextArea();
text_mc.explicitWidth = 80;
text_mc.editable = false;
text_mc.addEventListener(change, handleChangeEvent);
// Add the child component to the custom component.
addChild(text_mc);
}
// Test for the existence of the children before creating them.
if (!mode_mc) {
mode_mc = new Button();
mode_mc.label = Toggle Editing;
mode_mc.addEventListener(click, handleClickEvent);
// Add the child component to the custom component.
addChild(mode_mc);
}
}
More detail on the datagrid column:
The DataGridColumn class describes a column in a DataGrid control.
There is one DataGridColumn per displayable column, even if a column
is hidden or off-screen. The data provider items of a DataGrid
control can contain properties that are not displayed and, therefore,
do not need a DataGridColumn. A DataGridColumn allows specification
of the color and font of the text in a column; what kind of component
displays the data for the column; whether the column is editable,
sortable, or resizeable; and the text for the column header.

[flexcoders] Flex 2.0 - performance issues with large BarChart quantities and a minimum
Hello - Thanks for taking the time to read this posting. I have found an issue with BarChart performance. If this problem is already known please guide me to a bug # so that I can track the issue.I have found that if I am charting quantities in the thousands and tens of thousands value range *and* I set a minimum y-axis value, performance is horrible. If I remove the minimum value, performance is just fine.I definitely need the minimum value functionality in order to display the data properly because with out the minimum value set, the lower value bar chart column appears to be zero.The sample application below is an example of poor performance.thank you-chris?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" xmlns="*" mx:Script ![CDATA[[Bindable] private var dataSource:XML = root level x="1001" y="Chris Services" DataSet DisplayTitle="Customer" AmountDataType="Numeric" PlotValue Period="2006-04-21 11:41:13" Amount="42330"/ PlotValue Period="2006-04-22 11:41:13" Amount="47338"/ PlotValue Period="2006-04-23 11:41:13" Amount="42279"/ PlotValue Period="2006-04-24 11:41:13" Amount="48336"/ PlotValue Period="2006-04-25 11:41:13" Amount="54334"/ PlotValue Period="2006-04-26 11:41:13" Amount="53222"/ /DataSet /level/root; ]] /mx:Script mx:BarChart id="barchart" height="80%" width="80%" visible="true" showDataTips="true"dataProvider="{this.dataSource.level.DataSet.PlotValue}" mx:horizontalAxis mx:CategoryAxis categoryField="@Period"/ /mx:horizontalAxis mx:series mx:ColumnSeries id="columnSeries" yField="@Amount"/ /mx:series mx:verticalAxis mx:LinearAxis minimum="0" interval="1"/ /mx:verticalAxis /mx:BarChart/mx:Application

Re: [flexcoders] Re: datagrid and dataField
Michael,
i subclassed the datagrid and the datagridcolumn because i saw too
much issues being resolved on this way. (unfortunately).
i dont know much flex neither actionscript, but i read a lot on
documentation and tried a lot of tests. Spent 4 hours on this trying to
do the right thing instead of traversing by hand the datapath of the
xml...
but damn !!! actionscript is too much temperamental! clearly a
limitation (not a bug) that only root nodes can be evaluated with []s.
is there any place which we can ask for this feature to adobe? would
be great!
but... in mean time... thank you very much for your help bro!
my code, inside the extendes class become (with proper credit ;)
override public function itemToLabel(data:Object):String {
if (!data)
return ;
if (labelFunction != null)
return labelFunction(data, this);
if (owner.labelFunction != null)
return owner.labelFunction(data, this);
if (typeof(data) == xml) {
data = deriveComplexColumn( data, dataField ).toString();
}
if (typeof(data) == object) {
try{
data = data[dataField];
}
catch(e:Error) {
data = null;
}
}
if (data is String)
return String(data);
try {
return data.toString();
}
catch(e:Error) {
}
return ;
}
// function from Michael Labriola from Flexcoders mail list
protected function deriveComplexColumn( data:Object,

var dataPtr:Object = data;
var complexName:Array = complexFieldName.split( '.', 10 );
for each ( var key:String in complexName )dataPtr =
dataPtr[ key ];
return dataPtr;
}

the bad thing is that now sorting on the datagridcolumn doesn't work
anymore... and need to be made by hand again...
argh!
will just wait for the client ask for this. ;)
best regards!

Michael Labriola escreveu:
You are correct. By default the dataField on DataGridColumn only goes
to the root level of the structure you are passing.
If you are feeling a little ambitious, you can subclass dataGridColumn
and do something like this:
protected function deriveComplexColumn( data:Object,
complexFieldName:String ):Object
{
var dataPtr:Object;
dataPtr = data;
var complexName:Array;
complexName = complexFieldName.split( '.', 10 );
for each ( var key:String in complexName )
{
dataPtr = dataPtr[ key ];
}
return dataPtr;
}
Then in your itemToLabel method, you can replace this:
try
{
data = data[dataField];
}
with this:
try
{
data = deriveComplexColumn( data, dataField );
}
...If you don't want to make your own subclass of dataField, then you
could do the same thing with an itemRenderer or a labelFunction.
So:
public function myLabelFunc( row:Object, column:DataGridColumn ):String {
return deriveComplexColumn( row, column.dataField ) as String;
}
Have fun,
Mike

[flexcoders] Re: datagrid select to change query result in other datagrid
You could do a basic drill down scenerio, or simply filter the records. Use Drill down: Data A: A list of agents and other stuff, and ID Data b: A more detailed view of a Typically a single record. But not only. The details could be a list of tickets for that agent. Basically the second list needs to contain a foriegn key of the agent id. Use a filter if all you want to do is refine the results and not look at additional details. Client side filtering is easy, check out dev net or docs for examples. Process: Load the data Store the data (arraycollection works nicely) Display data (in a grid) Setup another control (combo) to display a distinct list of agents. That combo's dataprovider could be from a select distinct in sql and a second remoting call. Or do what I like to do, copy the original data to array and filter the list down to a single record per agent. Now you have a distinct list of agents and ids, and the user can select an agent, call another method to filter the main data collection. I will tell you I searched flex blogs for weeks to find the equiv of a select distinct filter. I did not have any luck. So I was able to find a javascript code snip that did the task. My big tip is this, if you can't find a method in the native language, look at other languages and see how it's done. Javascript has the same kinds of datatypes (ie ARRAYS, lists) and similar methods, split, join etc. Just find a snip that works there and update the syntax to actionscript. Learn how filters work, they are essential for managing RIA's, as they can save a ton of trips back and forth from the server.

I posted this on the Adobe web forum, but I think I'll have better luck posting here. I am a newbie to flex... using flex 2 builder and cfmx 7.0.2. I have my first project to be done in flex -- a fairly large web survey. So far I've built the UI using a ViewStack... each canvas has one or more related questions. There's a previous/next button row at the bottom, and I eventually need it to work in such a way as to not allow NEXT to be clicked unless all fields on the canvas are filled in. My MXML file is huge, but one design goal I had was to have the entire survey be loaded by the user, and not communicate with the server again until the user has made choices on all fields and is ready to submit. This way, I'm hoping I can try to capture the data in the event that the user has an internet problem and let them try again or save their choices to an XML file and either email it or upload it later when they are back online. This is a nice thing to do for the user, since the survey is so long. I just want to prevent the survey from being interrupted, since it's so long. If the entire survey is loaded when the person loads the swf, and I can just attempt to send one survey object back to the server at the end, I can trap errors and provide another route to go. I was going to use mx:Form to build the forms on each ViewStack Canvas... one form for each canvas, but still all bound to a single Survey object, as follows... So then I created a Survey.xml file that I was going to use with mx:Model, and try to simply create an xml tree representing a Survey object, it's metadata (startDateTime, endDateTime, IP address, etc.), and it's questions and answers. My thought was that I could populate this Survey object as the user progressed through the ViewStack, and then send the entire object to the server when complete, and if that failed, ask them to try again or offer to save the XML file to their system for later upload or emailing. Is this a reasonable way to proceed? What are the pitfalls? Is there something different I should be considering?

I have 2 columns in the grid:

mx:DataGridColumn headerText=Status dataField=status/
But the problem is when I want to add a column for the store set name
mx:DataGridColumn headerText=Stores dataField=store_set.name/
No values are displayed in this column.
Using the FlexBuilder debugger, I can see that there is a value
for the store set name.
I noticed that the dataProvider for the grid is an array collection,
could this be the problem. Do I need to have the data in Flex as an
XMLList or XMLListCollection. How do you get the HTTPService result
into XML for the grid.
I admit I have tried different ways with XMLList etc, but do not get
any data in the grid.

Take a look at this. It will show you how to get the BitmapData from any UIComponent. You can use the Jpg encoder class that is part of the corelib project on adobe labs to convert it to a jpg.

[flexcoders] Re: A web survey based on Flex
Overall it is not a bad way to proceed. The only place I might direct you some place different is where you save to the local drive if the server is unavailable. For this part, I would suggest you take a look at a concept called 'Local Shared Objects' Without knowing all of the details of your setup, I would suggest that saving an XML file to their system without the help of a server is going to be tricky if not impossible. --Mike --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, advantexllc [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I posted this on the Adobe web forum, but I think I'll have better luck posting here.

[flexcoders] Re: Convert Object to a Value Object
2 more things to consider. Not sure of your particular setup, but, you may want to look at the [Managed] metadata tag. Setup dependent, it may be what you are looking for. Second, and more generally, casts fail when the system cannot convert one type to another. So, take a look at your objects. You mentioned setting the params one by one, a common technique is to build a static method which accepts an Object and returns (by internally assigning the properties) your value object.

Michael Labriola escreveu:
You are correct. By default the dataField on DataGridColumn only goes
to the root level of the structure you are passing.
If you are feeling a little ambitious, you can subclass dataGridColumn
and do something like this:
protected function deriveComplexColumn( data:Object,
complexFieldName:String ):Object
{
var dataPtr:Object;
dataPtr = data;
var complexName:Array;
complexName = complexFieldName.split( '.', 10 );
for each ( var key:String in complexName )
{
dataPtr = dataPtr[ key ];
}
return dataPtr;
}
Then in your itemToLabel method, you can replace this:
try
{
data = data[dataField];
}
with this:
try
{
data = deriveComplexColumn( data, dataField );
}
...If you don't want to make your own subclass of dataField, then you
could do the same thing with an itemRenderer or a labelFunction.
So:
public function myLabelFunc( row:Object, column:DataGridColumn
):String {
return deriveComplexColumn( row, column.dataField ) as String;
}
Have fun,

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 2.0 - performance issues with large BarChart quantities and a minimum

If I remove the minimum value, performance is just fine.
I definitely need the minimum value functionality in order to display the data properly because with out the minimum value set, the lower value bar chart column appears to be zero.The sample application below is an example of poor performance.

Re: [flexcoders] sending bmp instead of jpeg/png
Just work with ColdFusion image manipulation or PHP (imagewanki ** I guess this name).So, that's all.On 10/27/06, Brian [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm working on a project where we send snapshots of the Flex frontend to the server. I've used the png encoder and the jpeg encoder from Adobe and those work fine. The problem is that the images are a little fuzzy, and the client is looking for very high quality images (as in print quality). I tried creating a ByteArray using the BitmapData.getPixels(rect:Rectangle) method, but the server has no idea what it's looking at, and the stream is gigantic. I understand that this is why you need to encode on the flex side, but does anyone know of any encoders out there that can encode higher quality images, maybe like BMPs? Or is it unrealistic to expect so much quality out of anything generated from BitmapData objects? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [flexcoders] Dynamically Generated Forms
You really have to test the DaoFlex or the Flex Coldfusion Integration kit.Regards.On 10/26/06, javaflash1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My company has a database-driven system of web forms, each of which consists of many questions in various layouts (2-column radio, 1 column checkbox, etc). The forms are never hard-coded. Each HTTP request causes Java code to perform DB queries to dynamically generate the various questions and answers. Those questions are then rendered through JSP and Struts tiles into HTML. The HTML also contains _javascript_ functions to hide/show conditional questions on the web page based on answers to earlier questions. Now we're trying to figure out the best way to adapt this system to use a Flash front-end instead of HTML/_javascript_. My preliminary research suggests at least two possible approaches: 1. A pre-compiled SWF could send a request with certain parameters, and the server could respond with an XML description of the form to build. Then the SWF could parse that XML and dynamically generate the form using attachMovie for each form element (with a lot of math to determine relative positions of elements with variable sizes, like text labels). 2. Flex might reduce the code for placing elements, by using MXML to describe the form structure as well as visual arrangement. I haven't used this yet, and I'm wary of Flex 2 simply because it requires Flash Player 9 which is only at 50% browser penetration (http://blog.flashforwardconference.com/2006/09/12/adobe-keynote- some-highlights/) but I might try an earlier version of Flex if it helps. Does anyone have a suggestion about the best approach to solving this problem?

The only place I might directyou some place different is where you save to the local drive if theserver is unavailable.For this part, I would suggest you take a look at a concept called'Local Shared Objects'Without knowing all of the details of your setup, I would suggest thatsaving an XML file to their system without the help of a server isgoing to be tricky if not impossible.--Mike--- In [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com, "advantexllc" subscriptions@...wrote: I posted this on the Adobe web forum, but I think I'll have better luck posting here. I am a newbie to flex... using flex 2 builder and cfmx 7.0.2. I have my first project to be done in flex -- a fairly large web survey. So far I've built the UI using a ViewStack... each canvas has one or more related questions. There's a previous/next button row at the bottom, and I eventually need it to work in such a way as to not allow NEXT to be clicked unless all fields on the canvas are filled in. My MXML file is huge, but one design goal I had was to have the entire survey be loaded by the user, and not communicate with the server again until the user has made choices on all fields and is ready to submit. This way, I'm hoping I can try to capture the data in the event that the user has an internet problem and let them try again or save their choices to an XML file and either email it or upload it later when they are back online. This is a nice thing to do for the user, since the survey is so long. I just want to prevent the survey from being interrupted, since it's so long. If the entire survey is loaded when the person loads the swf, and I can just attempt to send one survey object back to the server at the end, I can trap errors and provide another route to go. I was going to use mx:Form to build the forms on each ViewStack Canvas... one form for each canvas, but still all bound to a single Survey object, as follows... So then I created a Survey.xml file that I was going to use with mx:Model, and try to simply create an xml tree representing a "Survey object", it's metadata (startDateTime, endDateTime, IP address, etc.), and it's questions and answers. My thought was that I could populate this Survey object as the user progressed through the ViewStack, and then send the entire object to the server when complete, and if that failed, ask them to try again or offer to save the XML file to their system for later upload or emailing. Is this a reasonable way to proceed? What are the pitfalls? Is there something different I should be considering?

Luis,
I agree it would be a good feature. Just as an FYI, I submitted it
previously as a feature request to Adobe.
On a side note, next week I will be back at the office, and I will
post the solution to the sorting problem you had as well.

Michael Labriola escreveu:
You are correct. By default the dataField on DataGridColumn only goes
to the root level of the structure you are passing.
If you are feeling a little ambitious, you can subclass dataGridColumn
and do something like this:
protected function deriveComplexColumn( data:Object,
complexFieldName:String ):Object
{
var dataPtr:Object;
dataPtr = data;
var complexName:Array;
complexName = complexFieldName.split( '.', 10 );
for each ( var key:String in complexName )
{
dataPtr = dataPtr[ key ];
}
return dataPtr;
}
Then in your itemToLabel method, you can replace this:
try
{
data = data[dataField];
}
with this:
try
{
data = deriveComplexColumn( data, dataField );
}
...If you don't want to make your own subclass of dataField, then you
could do the same thing with an itemRenderer or a labelFunction.
So:
public function myLabelFunc( row:Object, column:DataGridColumn
):String {
return deriveComplexColumn( row, column.dataField ) as String;
}
Have fun,
Mike
