The problem happends when the hight of the grid is multipe of the
hight of the row.
In this example hight of the grid is 355.
Hight of the header is 25
hight of the row is 22
So we have (355-25)/22 = 15
Exactly 15 rows.
And we see 16's row show up outside of the grid.
If we put hight of the grid 356 (not multiple of row hight), extra
row is not shown.
Thank you.

PopUpManager.addPopUp(str,this,false);

I'm trying to drag-and-drop from a tree to a datagrid. I've followed
the examples to try to achieve this, but whenever I drag over the
datagrid, it refuses to accept the drop. The datagrid acts like the
dropEnabled flag is set to false. I've traced the code and despite
the fact that I have a custom dragEnter handler, it still executes the
handler found in ListBase.as which cancels out my handler.
Does anyone know what would cause this? Thanks!
My Handler is as follows:
private function onDragEnter( event:DragEvent ) : void
{
DragManager.acceptDragDrop(UIComponent(event.currentTarget));

Subject: [flexcoders] Hands-on charts
Flex charts work beautifully responding to dynamic changes in data.
Using the current components, is there any way to use Flex charts to
change data?
As a conceptual model, I'm thinking of the way parametric equalizers
work in some audio programs, where it's possible to drag nodes on a
line
graph vertically or horizontally to change the parametric data.

Re: [flexcoders] Binding to a custom method: possible?
Hi Ben,
Your problem is probably that you have not told Flex when it needs to
fire the binding. The binding mechanism works by broadcasting events
from the setter methods of bindable properties. If there is no direct
setter involved, then Flex does not automatically know to refresh the
data to the binding destination.
The best way I know around this issue is to specify the event type
you want to associate with a change to your calculated value, and
then fire that event when ever any of the arguments to that method
change.
[Bindable(enabledParamsChanged)]
private function isEnabled():Boolean {
if (A) … if (B) … etc
}
Then you need to say something like
private function set valueOfA (arg) {
// Change A here
dispatchEvent(new Event(enabledParamsChanged));
}
private function set valueOfB (arg) {
// Change B here
dispatchEvent(new Event(enabledParamsChanged));
}
Now Flex knows to fire your isEnabled binding when the arguments to
the calculation are altered.
Cheers,
Lach

Capho, ServiceLocator is an implementation of the Singleton pattern which, in a nutshell, means that only one instance of the class should be created. Your code is somehow breaking this rule.

Re: [flexcoders] application structure and proper practice
Hi, That is an architecture question so it depends on how you have decided delegate responsibilities in your application. As a general guide however: your pop-up windows are views and should be separated from (have no knowledge of) the service calls which are an interface to the application layer. A typical way to achieve this is to broadcast events from your view describing user interactions (e.g. user submits form) passing the object to which the form is bound as the event 'payload'. Listen for these events with your controller and use your event handler to call the webservice or respond as appropriate. Your view needn't know anything about the webservice. Hope that helps.

[flexcoders] Re: change properties in itemRenderer at runtime ?
Hi Arpan, You need to use the properties property of ClassFactory. This is basically an object whose properties get assigned to your factory class's public properties with matching names. For example, if your gridItemRenderer class has public properties called someString, someNumber and otherObject, you would do this: var myFactory:ClassFactory = new ClassFactory(gridItemRenderer) var myObj:Object = new Object(); myObj.someString:String = hi there; myObj.someNumber:Number = 7873; myObj.otherObject:CustomType = myOtherCustomObject; myFactory.properties = myObj; lineChartColumn.itemRenderer = myFactory; You can also use this approach to set up bindings inside the factory class, so that its values are bound to external properties. This approach is demonstrated here: http://www.returnundefined.com/2006/11/creating-truly-reusable-renderers-with-classfactory/ HTH, Ben --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, arpan srivastava [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I have created an itemRenderer for the datagrid.

[flexcoders] {data} current index
Hi,
I have an application that uses a custom component as a renderItem in

How can I retrieve the current index of the item within my custom

[flexcoders] Styling in Flex is officially ridiculous
OK. I am usually very hesitant to criticize Adobe because of the immense respect I have for their employees and the amazing technology they create. I have built my career around their products. That being said, the styling capabilities in Flex are downright silly. I have suffered silently through some small, yet extremely annoying nuances, but this one takes the cake: You can't style a Button to not have a border!!! Developer: Hey button, go ahead and skip your border drawing routine. Button: Eff that! I love my borders and I ain't getting rid of them for anyone! WTF. I can understand not supporting some styling features people would like, but not supporting one that is just turning something off? What gives? I realize I could probably subclass Button and override the drawing but that is uber-overkill for something that should be a simple attribute. If someone from Adobe can offer a valid reason for why this isn't supported I would love to hear it. I would also be very interested to know if styling is an area that is being focused on for significant upgrades in future versions. Thanks, Ben
Re: [flexcoders] to form or not to form that is my question
I was wondering the same - everything seems to work just fine without using form and formItems. I found that the form component seem to make it more difficult to create and size the layout objects. I am not using either and have no problems using just textInput and labels instead.

[flexcoders] Best practices for displaying large texts
Hey, I'm trying to figure out the best (or at least optimal) way to display a large text (e.g. a news article) with several paragraphs using Flex 2. Would a Text control be the right one to use? Or is there another technique that would render better? Is there any way to justify text on -both- sides? Thanks in advance, Pablo Gustavo Apanasionek

[flexcoders] Is it possible to upload an xml file from local filesystem into a variable
Hi, I'm trying to replace a .Net web client which zips and xml file and transfers it a server for analysis via a SOAP webservice. I wanted to remove dependancy on .Net standalone client and use flex app as replacment. I can't seem to find a way of loading the local xml file into a var for compression and base64 encoding to webservice. Can this be done or are there security restrictions on this? Many thanks Murdo
RE: [flexcoders] Styling in Flex is officially ridiculous
I can't answer any of that for Adobe, but here is some input. Granted, I agree that it should be a default css property that can be easilty changed... It actually can be done without a ton of work. The easiest way to do that is to copy modify the halo ButtonSkin class, and use it as a custom skin on your button. Just modify the updateDisplayList function so that it draws the gradient rectangles on top of each other, without the pixel offset for the border, when calling the drawRoundRect functions. Search for the string // button fill in that class, and you will see the areas that need to be updated. You don't need to subclass the button at all. You can find the halo skins as a reference at C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2\Flex SDK 2\frameworks\source\mx\skins\halo I have more info on skinning flex apps at https://www.cynergysystems.com/blogs/page/andrewtrice?entry=making_flex_ less_flex_like Hope that helps, -Andy _ Andrew Trice Cynergy Systems, Inc. http://www.cynergysystems.com Blog: http://www.cynergysystems.com/blogs/page/andrewtrice Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Office: 866-CYNERGY From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of ben.clinkinbeard Sent: Wednesday, November 29, 2006 10:52 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Styling in Flex is officially ridiculous OK.

Subject: [flexcoders] Hands-on charts
Flex charts work beautifully responding to dynamic changes in data.
Using the current components, is there any way to use Flex charts to
change data?
As a conceptual model, I'm thinking of the way parametric equalizers
work in some audio programs, where it's possible to drag nodes on a
line
graph vertically or horizontally to change the parametric data.

Hi Ben,
Your problem is probably that you have not told Flex when it needs to
fire the binding. The binding mechanism works by broadcasting events
from the setter methods of bindable properties. If there is no direct
setter involved, then Flex does not automatically know to refresh the
data to the binding destination.
The best way I know around this issue is to specify the event type
you want to associate with a change to your calculated value, and
then fire that event when ever any of the arguments to that method
change.
[Bindable(enabledParamsChanged)]
private function isEnabled():Boolean {
if (A)
if (B)
etc
}
Then you need to say something like
private function set valueOfA (arg) {
// Change A here
dispatchEvent(new Event(enabledParamsChanged));
}
private function set valueOfB (arg) {
// Change B here
dispatchEvent(new Event(enabledParamsChanged));
}
Now Flex knows to fire your isEnabled binding when the arguments to
the calculation are altered.
Cheers,
Lach

needs to create a new skin. The button does not have borders, it has skins.
It dosn't even share the same characteristics of a Container that has a
border. These are not the same things.
So, Ben, what do you mean when you say the Button's border? Or, what do you
want...

If the label is present, you click on the label and the Button functions
correctly.
I don't know what he is aiming for here but, if you 'don't' have a border,
there is no other hit area specified for the component. So, how are you
going to get mouse events from a component that dosn't have a hit area?
Bottom line is, this approach does work if you plan to use a label, other
than this, why would you want a button without a label and border if you
want to click on it?

[flexcoders] Re: totaling items in datagrid
Thanks Ben,
I already use similar code with a labelFunction to do sub-totals
within the grid and it works very well. However, that code will only
do calculations on a single row and not on an entire column. The code
I wrote for totaling a column works as well but not on a new form
where the model has no data yet. I would also like to run the code
after the data model is populated (run the function last after all
other code has run). How can I iterate through a dataGrid when it
holds the data and my model or the array doesn't have any data yet?

uses a different event (mouseMove), and the function I'm working with is
already tied to the mouseDown? The movement tracking seems necessary to

Flex charts work beautifully responding to dynamic changes in data.
Using the current components, is there any way to use Flex charts to
change data?
As a conceptual model, I'm thinking of the way parametric equalizers
work in some audio programs, where it's possible to drag nodes on
a line

[flexcoders] Redux...Populating with Many-to-Many Relationship Data via RO?
Hi all (again),
I guess using an existing post to create a new one simply by changing
the subject wasn't a good idea.
It got stuck under a completely unrelated thread; So, sorry for the
double post, but at least now I
will know that this isn't buried and ignored by accident...Here's my
original post:
I'm pretty sure that any answers for this one will help a lot of people,
since the basis of it crosses many complex business applications.
I have existing CF apps (Purchase Requests, Travel Requests, Request
Approvals, etc.) that contain many-to-many relationships, such as PR
Number Charge Strings Item/Costs, wherein the PR contains one or
more charge strings, and each charge string can have one or more items.
I am prototyping Flex versions, but I have come across a little (ha) bit
of a situation where I am not sure of the best method to proceed. I
have a actionscript form for creating a _new_ request, allowing the user
to add charge strings and associated items dynamically (stripped version
included below in case someone needs/wants to see how I did this).
Textually, a request being updated might look like this:
Request 1001
Charge String 1: CS: (combobox)
Item 1: Type (combobox) Cost (Number)...etc.
Item 2: Type (combobox) Cost (Number)...etc.
Item 3: Type (combobox) Cost (Number)...etc.
Charge String 2: (combobox)
Item 1: Type (combobox) Cost (Number)...etc.
Item 2: Type (combobox) Cost (Number)...etc.
Charge String 3: (combobox)
Item 1: Type (combobox) Cost (Number)...etc.
Note that Charge Strings and Items have unique IDs and there is a
relation between items and charge strings as well as items and the request.
However, a request also has to be available for updates, since they can
remain in draft status before being submitted for approvals. The
situation is this: Because of the possible many-to-many relationship
between charge strings and related items within a request, I'm not quite
sure of the best method of populating the form for updates.
Additionally, the user may add, remove or update items or an existing
charge string, and add new charge strings with new items
In CF, I only have to make 1 query to get the primary data I need, and I
can do a nested loop to create the form easily by checking for a change
in the charge string to know when to display the CS combobox and when to
display it's associated items. On update, we archive the old charge
string and item data and insert new rows into SQL Server, rather than
trying to determine which charge strings and/or items were updated.
This is for processing speed and the ability to recreate a request at
any point in time (using version numbers), the latter being necessary
for auditing the approval/rejection history of a request.
I am not sure if looping is the best method to use in Flex --
particularly since the containers are dynamic out of necessity -- nor am
I positive about the manner in which I should do this, in particular the
data population/combobox selected items.
(Btw, I started doing this with components, but actionscript was faster
for me to get it to work...I'll end up going back to that just for code
reuse but I like to see things work first :-)

We throw screen shots at the users as soon as we can, and towards the tail of development, a working stable-ish 'beta' site. We'll also chat to them to make sure their looking at them :-) * 4-20 services(rpc or fds), 2-4 flexdevs, 1-2 backend devs * 10-50 screens We have similar sized projects (screens, services), with about half the team size. Initial planning, requirements etc. are gathered as a team, and then we tend to split into backend (ColdFusion) and front end teams (Flex, minimal HTML), with a defined (and evolving) API document to join them together. In this case, the front end GUI leads, because they can see that returning 'A,B,C' from one service call is going to be better than calling 3 services because A, B and C are always needed at the same time- even though the back end may see them as totally unconnected. * Cairngorm by the book. Ditto, fairly much, we try not to use ViewLocator anymore for instance, as per the recommendation, but this can mean components get broken in two - a include'd .as file for actions, and a main .mxml for the objects in the component. Bloat in the FrontController (lots of AddCommand's) or Model (lots of properties) is a problem, but not so bad you can't just partition it up with some comments. * Flex Builder, eclipse, subversion ( could be others, but subclipse and familiarity make this a comfortable choice for many ) We deploy on Linux, with Linux workstations, but still use Eclipse and Subversion with the command line Flex SDK and the community ActionScript and MXML bits. One of these days I'll get the in-Eclipse Ant task working too. * Tomcat/JRun/Jetty for local testing ( could be an app server as well, but these are usually lighter and thus swifter when run side by side with eclipse ) Our backends are ColdFusion, so each developer has a CF server and we share a remote database. Flex is then compiled locally and just copied to the web root. * FDS or just RPC ( both be run from within a webserver ) We're OK with just RPC and background/user-driven refresh calls. I *think* we have just the one FDS licence for a single app. so we wont waste it unless we have to. Ok, how would you recommend setting up dev stations for that project? workflow? where does flex meet the backend? when? where do we unit test the different environments? how do we package and when? etc... We're using a trimmed version of Agile - a quick email from each team member once a day saying what they did, are doing, and what's in the way. This keeps us mostly synchronised. During the day we'll announce new SVN rev's as they're committed - r2302 adds the additional data you wanted to the return of BarService.getFoo(). The API doc is just a table with the method signatures and return types in - that's in SVN too so front end people can write to something the backend doesn't do yet, and fudge it in the ServiceDelegate or write a fake server object if needed and hopefully not have to change much when the real one comes along. This prevents hold ups from that side, though it seems the back end is finished quicker than the Flex side of things so far - this may change as we deliver more products. During the tail of the dev. process we may be cutting release tags a few times a week and pushing to the beta site, eventually all the bugs are closed off, we copy the latest tag to a branch, compile the branch, and deploy to the live site. We don't unit test our MXML GUI's because I've not had a chance to play with the tools that claim to do it. Developers write test cases for AS and CFML code as they go - most of the time it's not worth the whole test unit confabble, so you just get a single CFML or MXML page that exercises the public methods. This will catch most coding or logic errors, and allows us to retest things after refactoring. Again, I fully support top-down mocks. It's like being able to simulate 3d full sized houses before building them. risk killer and keeps the user happy! Yup. I'd love to try mocking a GUI with Flex Builder right in front of a user with the next project. Might be a bit much, because they'll start asking for them just because they see the icon. Maybe screen-sharing just the design area as we talk would be good - sort of like the white boarding we do in the dev. team at the mo.

[flexcoders] Problem with DataGrid ItemRenderer
We have a datagrid that is using an item renderer that consists of an
HBox implementing IDropInListItemRenderer with a few components in
it. One of these components is a Text component used so some text
can be wrapped.
The problem is there are a few cases were the datagrid does not seem
to size the cell properly to the item renderer. The easiest case to
demonstrate is sorting the datagrid. The datagrid renders fine when
first loaded but if a column is sorted the row heights no longer are
variable, they are all the same height. Is there something else that
needs to be in the item renderer?
Here's some simplified code that demonstrates the problem (run it,
then sort the columns to see the issue):

[flexcoders] Re: totaling items in datagrid
Okay, I made a little progress on this. Instead of passing the
mx:model (which is an array) to my Grand Total function I'm now
passing the actual dataProvider which is an arrayCollection. Now, new
forms show the grand total as well as previously existing forms being
edited. That's where the data is held, not the model. One last thing
to do, How can I get my grand total function to run last after the
arrayCollection is populated?

Hi Allen, Before going this far, can you try turning on Debug level logging in /WEB-INF/flex/services-config.xml and ensure that only the Endpoint.* pattern is enabled for the logging target filters? I'd then clear out the logs, re-run the test, and examine the AMF representation of the Object as it was serialized.

Okay, I've figured out how to do this part. Results here:

If you can also turn on debug logging of the SQL
that hibernate is using that would help figure out
if we are just fetching too many objects or what.
It looks as though I do this by adding a line to HibernateManager.java...
public void createSessionFactory(Configuration hibernateConfig,
boolean useTransactions) throws ExceptionInInitializerError
{
try
{
New Line - hibernateConfig.setProperty(hibernate.show_sql, true)
sessionFactory = hibernateConfig.buildSessionFactory();
Yes?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Hands-on charts
That depends on what you're trying to do specifically.
The easy answer would be to say that this only works when the user
specifically clicks down and drags on an item in the chart.
In that case, I'd modify my example below by:
1) listen to the chart's itemMouseDown event instead of mouseDown
2) change the type of the event object in the mouse down handler to
ChartMouseEvent
3) in the event object, there will be a hitData property. That should
tell you which item in your dataProvider you should be updating.
4) store off a reference to that item.
5) in your track function, use localToData to convert mouse coordinates
to data coordinates
6) in track function, write those data coordinates back into the item
you stored off.

Yup. To do mouse tracking, you generally need a mouse down, mouse

{
// listen to the systemManager so we get mouse move/up events even
when the mouse moves outside the component.

to call your function after the array is populated call it right after
you populate it when the event results. The event results are nto
called till the query is finished and the data is pulled so it makes
for a great time to run code like your function. It will also call
your function again each time the list is updated.

[flexcoders] Second problem: how to delete a component out of the storage
Hello, My second question is how to delete a component out of storage. We have some own components (basically forms), which will be created and shown by an construct e.g. var myComponent : T_Component = new T_Component ; this.addChild(myComponent) Some of our forms will be created in an popup. On every call of the popup, we lost 5 mb or more, all childs on the windows will be removed by formname.removeAllChild(); What cann we do, that the garbage collector will dispose this objects. Is there a way to show all objects with references (NOT NULL)? I have read in the Flex Help, that this.removeChild(myComponent) not delete the form and/or object out of the storage. Rather the object must be destroyed. It is sufficient to call delete(myComponent) about remove this object out of the storage as the case may be that the garbage-collector remove this object at any time? Or how can I destroy a component correctly. What happens with the widgets on this component e.g. input fields or datagrids? Are they also being deleted? Thanks for your help, too. Matze
[flexcoders] Re: Styling in Flex is officially ridiculous
Yes, I meant the button's border. The default button is a gradient
background with a border around it. I just wanted a gradient. No border.
What I ended up doing was to create a PNG that had a gradient using
the colors I wanted, created a Button subclass (in MXML) called
GreenButton, set styleName to greenButton, and then defined
greenButton inside a Style tag. In the greenButton style I set the
upSkin property to use my PNG and provided 9-slice values and also set
the text color. This approach allows me to reuse GreenButton and set
the label and width (among other things) inline. The drawbacks,
however, are that I will need to create separate images for downSkin,
disabledSkin, etc. for each and every custom button I need, like
RedButton, etc.
So all in all it is a fairly simple and tolerable workaround, it just
peeves me that I can't say borderStyle: none. In my opinion, if a
component has a border you should be able to turn it off. Its just an
if statement.

It answers his question and it does work.
If the label is present, you click on the label and the Button functions
correctly.
I don't know what he is aiming for here but, if you 'don't' have a
border, there is no other hit area specified for the component. So, how
are you going to get mouse events from a component that dosn't have a
hit area?
Bottom line is, this approach does work if you plan to use a label,
other than this, why would you want a button without a label and border
if you want to click on it?

Do you mean ChartItemEvent? I can't find ChartMouseEvent documented.
ChartItemEvent gives me the HitData and access to the item, but I seem
to lose the mouse tracking in the process.

Ely Greenfield wrote:
That depends on what you're trying to do specifically.
The easy answer would be to say that this only works when the user
specifically clicks down and drags on an item in the chart.
In that case, I'd modify my example below by:
1) listen to the chart's itemMouseDown event instead of mouseDown
2) change the type of the event object in the mouse down handler to
ChartMouseEvent
3) in the event object, there will be a hitData property. That should
tell you which item in your dataProvider you should be updating.
4) store off a reference to that item.
5) in your track function, use localToData to convert mouse
coordinates to data coordinates
6) in track function, write those data coordinates back into the item
you stored off.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Styling in Flex is officially ridiculous
Ben,
This issue could only peeve you if it was actually an issue.
The Button does not have a border. Thus, the border API does not apply to a
Button.
This is the reason they say upSkin, it's a skin.
You could easily copy and paste the ButtonSkin class and put another style
in the says borderEnabled. In the skin rendering method, call that style and
put the drawing api section that contains the 'border' in an if statement.
This way you just set ONE style and vola, no border!

On 11/29/06, ben.clinkinbeard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Yes, I meant the button's border. The default button is a gradient
background with a border around it. I just wanted a gradient. No border.
What I ended up doing was to create a PNG that had a gradient using
the colors I wanted, created a Button subclass (in MXML) called
GreenButton, set styleName to greenButton, and then defined
greenButton inside a Style tag. In the greenButton style I set the
upSkin property to use my PNG and provided 9-slice values and also set
the text color. This approach allows me to reuse GreenButton and set
the label and width (among other things) inline. The drawbacks,
however, are that I will need to create separate images for downSkin,
disabledSkin, etc. for each and every custom button I need, like
RedButton, etc.
So all in all it is a fairly simple and tolerable workaround, it just
peeves me that I can't say borderStyle: none. In my opinion, if a
component has a border you should be able to turn it off. Its just an
if statement.

If the label is present, you click on the label and the Button functions

I don't know what he is aiming for here but, if you 'don't' have a
border, there is no other hit area specified for the component. So, how
are you going to get mouse events from a component that dosn't have a

Bottom line is, this approach does work if you plan to use a label,

Basically, I've developed a framework that uses onItemEnd from the datagrid. I have components like the combobox for example... onChange calls onItemEnd which takes the data of the combobox and puts it in the dataField of the datagrid, then makes a service call to update to the database. I've gotten this to work great with many components but the dateField I'm having a horrible time with. when I dispatchEvent (onitemend) for example, I use event.currentTarget.editedItemRenderer to get the value from event.target.itemEditorInstance. Which both don't exist when I dispatchEvent from the calendar select date (onClose) event handler. This works when I have the dateField as an Editor only and using the default renderer. This is an issue becuase it creates another click for the user. I think the root of my problem is that when you click on the datefield to open the calendar, it doesn't invoke it as an editor in the datagrid. Is there a way to force this?

RE: [flexcoders] Problem with Flex ColdFusion
Hi Israel,
You need to put the following in your root folder (I am assuming you
have got jrun server Install).
[C:\JRun4\]servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\
The thing in brackets {} can be replaced by the location on your
computer.
Hope this will help.

RE: [flexcoders] Chart :Clipping segment from a line serie
By default, series filter out datapoints not in the min/max range. If you set the filterData property to false, they'll render all points. Ely.

Is there an option to make it happen ? Thank you for your help. Regards-CLaude
