[flexcoders] Can I have SWFLoader automatically scale the content swf?
Hi,
I'm trying to do this thing where I have a VDividedBox, the top half
contains an SWFLoader that will load another Flex SWF. I want to
resize the SWFLoader automatically when the containing canvas is
resized by dragging the divider, and also for the content inside the
SWFLoader to scale automatically. Can this be done?
What I tried is something like:
test.mxml
=
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
layout=absolute
mx:VDividedBox width=543 height=312
mx:Canvas id=myCanvas height=300
mx:SWFLoader source=test2.swf id=ld
maintainAspectRatio=true
height={myCanvas.height-20} scaleContent=true /
/mx:Canvas
mx:Canvas
mx:Text text=The bottom half of the vdivided box /
/mx:Canvas
/mx:VDividedBox
/mx:Application
test2.mxml
==
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
layout=absolute
mx:Text x=22 y=10 text=I want this content to scale/
mx:Image x=22 y=36 width=197 height=28 source=untitled.jpg/

That would certainly be a nice feature, but when I saw demos of using
the client side database in AIR at the Chicago Adobe Max, it didn't
look like there was much in the way of integration with LCDS.
Unless something has changed, to do this you'd have to create client
side tables on your own, that mirror your server-side tables, and
manage the data stored there manually using a JDBC like API. No small
feat.

I'm creating a pure as3 application and when I use [Frame(factoryClass=com.somepackage.SomeClass] I'm getting a compiler warning... How do I make the warning go away?
[flexcoders] Re: Changing default components texts
You would extend the DateField component and override the properties
in the new Class' constructor, for example:
package mycomponents
{
import mx.controls.DateField;
public class MyDateField extends DateField
{
public function MyDateField()
{
super();
monthNames=['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May',
'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov',
'Dec'];
}
}
}
Then in your code replace all references to DateField with MyDateField.

[flexcoders] Event dispatching and receiving
Folks
Maybe I'm interpreating all the docs wrong but, I have a Custom Class which is
one of several View Classes as part of an MVC model I'm using. I have an
associated Controller class.
I want the Custom class to dispatch custom Event to the COntroller class, the
Custom class is embedded somewhere in the Display list under a Base View Class.
[Event(name=menuitemClicked, type=flash.events.Event)]
Custom Class {
private function onClick(event:Event) {
var e:Event = new Event(menuitemClicked, true, false);
dispatchEvent(e);
Alert.show(Event Dispatched);
}
}
In the Controller Class {
public function init() {
Application.application.addEventListener(menuitemClicked,
menuitemClickHandler);
}
//This MVC EventHandler
public function menuitemClickHandler(event:Event) {
Alert.show(Event received by COntroller);
}
}
I've tried not using Application.appication and still get nothing, what am I
not understanding about receiving events from another Class.

There's nothing stopping you from writing a flex

1. Start playing of the video in Flash
2. Show power point slides presentation synched with the video - which
basically is images rotated with timeouts
Perhaps I could make the same call from within Flex and trigger both

Hope that explains why. But irrespective, shouldn't the play()

Subject: [flexcoders] Calling play() on VideoDisplayer from JS using
Flex-Ajax bridge doesn't work
Hello Folks,
I have created a simple VideoDisplay where I can play a video file.
I have setup the Flex-Ajax bridge so that when I click a button on the
page, I can access the elapsed time using code as below
var elapsedTime = flexApp.getInstructorWindow().getPlayheadTime();
All this works fine. Now, instead of initiating the play from a button
on the Flash window I want to do it from outside the flash windo - a
button on the html page. I use that button to call a JS function as
below which calls the ActionScript function startSync - same function
that is called when the button on the flash player is pressed (and
that works).
function startPlayBack(){
alert('In startPlayBack');
flexApp.getInstructorWindow().startSync();
alert('Calling slideshow');
slideShow();
}
I get the first alert message but not the second one and my video
player doesn't play anything. The startSync ActionScript function is
as below.
public function startSync():void {
Alert.show(test1, test2);
instructorWindow.source = videoFile;
totalTimeArea.text = ;
stopTimeArea.text = ;
instructorWindow.play();
// start_sync.send();
}
The videoFile variable is initialized when the VideoDisplay loads up
using the code below
videoFile = Application.application.parameters.videoFile;
All this works fine when the button is pressed on the flash player but
I can't get it to play with a call from JS from the web page. Any
thoughts on what could be going wrong would be appreciated.
I am on Win XP using FireFox 2.0.0.9 and Flash Player 9.
Thanks much for any feedback.
Sanjay.
BTW: instructorWindow is the id of my VideoDisplay as below
mx:VideoDisplay id=instructorWindow width=291 height=264 x=6
y=7/

Re: Res: [flexcoders] Generating flex client based on xml content
Hello,
I don;t think any such tool exist. You have to write
an flex application yourself that will request server
for the xml and then render the UI on the basis of
that XML.
I have done the same for my application. It calls a
webserivce when returns the xml that contains the
layout of the client. A prototype of that can be view
at the following link.
http://80.227.133.21/FlexTestExternal/ApplicationLayoutManager.html
If you don't like the idea of generating the client UI
at runtime, what you can do is write an application in
any language you are familiar with and genrate an MXML
application file based on the xml. You can then
include that file in your Flex project.

Hi All
Let's say my system has a rest xml interface fully

There's nothing stopping you from writing a flex

the interface 'on the fly'
by instantiating the user interface dynamically

[flexcoders] Animated overSkin (how to use more than one frame of a symbol)
Hi, does anyone know if it's possible to have an animated overSkin for a button? Our designer has created an overSkin which just extends the normal skin, making it feel like it grows when the mouse is over it. However, when I embed it in our flex application, it constantly flicks between 1 frame of the over skin and then back to the upSkin. How can I get flex to play nicely with the over state?

RE: [flexcoders] Express Install question
Mark, I don't know if this is still the case, but in the past installation of the Flash Player was very tightly controlled. There was an agreement available that allowed deployment through automated push or by internal hosting, but it required signing a contract (no money, just license) and the contract gave Macromedia the rights to view your source code (presumably to confirm you weren't doing anything you're not supposed to re distributing the player). Perhaps Adobe has changed these rules (they changed a lot for the better!) but I don't know for sure and I didn't see anyone else answer your question. That's from a legal standpoint... From a technical standpoint, installation of the flash player is very simple and it's pretty easy to write your own installer (although I don't know if you can do your own automated install the way it happens from adobe.com).

[flexcoders] List Filter Problem driving me crazy!
So I'm building an application which contains lists of items that I
want users to be able to filter, select some items, filter again,
select some more items, etc.
However, when a selected item is filtered out, when the filter is
removed, the item is no longer selected.
Take the following example:
http://www.it.dev.duke.edu/public/CheckBoxListTest/CheckBoxListTest.html
select Item 1 then filter for Item 2... don't select anything.
Remove the filter now.
Item 1 is no longer selected. But the label still says it is
selected.. the label is bound to the
{cboRatings.selectedIndices.length} property.
In my test application I can't get it to work the way I want it to at
all. In my real application, it works sometimes but not others.
I thought maybe it was the CheckBoxList component that someone had
written for me... or the CheckBoxListItemRenderer that was part of
that component, but i'm finding the same problem in the above test
application which only uses a simple, standard list component.
If it makes any different, I'm compiling the application with Flex
Builder 3 (beta 2). I've compiled it with the Flex 2.0.1 HF3 SDK and
the latest Flex 3 beta SDK.
Why doesn't the list remember what's selected? Doesn't the filter
simply prevent an item from displaying?

[flexcoders] 3D Column Chart
Hi, I am working with 3D column chart which is an extension provided by Flex. I am facing following problem - When data is changed in dataProvider of chart, It didnt clear the previous columns and add new columns according to new data in the chart I want to refresh/ re-render the chart when ever data is changed in dataProvider. I have tried with InvalidateNow(), InvalidateSeriesStyle, invalidateData etc but didnt work. Now as a work around i remove that chart from parent.. i-e this.removeChild(3Dchart) and add it again, though the problem is solved by doing so.. but it leads to an other problem. After doing so the Xaxis, Yaxis and Zaxis angles are reset to zero it tried to set them again at the time of adding the charts again but didnt work. - Any thoughts in re-rendring the 3D column chart in better way so that its angles dont reset. Thanks in advance. -- Asim Nazir
[flexcoders] Re: how do I freeze the users actions while data is loading
I tend to avoid modal dialogs if at all possible. Generally it's much better to display some sort of a non-modal status message, such as a progress meter, and disable those functions that the user shouldn't have access to while the data is loading. For example, a current application I am working on allows users to open documents that contain multiple pages of multiple reports/charts. Each report involves a round trip data request to the server that can take up to a minute. The simple solution would be to create a modal popup that stays up until all of the reports for a page have loaded. Instead I display a progress meter in each report, until the report data has returned, then I display a chart containing the data. I allow the user to switch between pages, and even between documents while reports are loading. It was a pain to code, but it makes for a much more usable application. Your case might be simpler, and there might be nothing meaningful the user can do while waiting for the data, but the application will still look and feel more responsive if you find a way to avoid the modal dialog. And who knows, you might eventually find something they can do while they wait... -- Josh Vanderberg vanderblog.typepad.com - Flex Blog and open source components --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I guess sometimes the easy answer is the one we overlook.

What I do it have another request that is on the authenticated session request a token, we use a UUID generated by the server. We pass that in as a parameter on the upload request and that server side handler will then map that request to the correct session. We use tokens because we can expire them after a single use.

My cue points are loaded from a database using AMFPHP 1.9, and then put into an array. I've also created a static array in the actionscript, just to compare the results, and they are identical. So, I've excluded the formatting of the result as a possible source for this strange behaviour. The cue points are attached to the VideoDisplay component like this: videoDisplay.cuePointManager.setCuePoints(cuePoints); where cuePoints is an Array, and videoDisplay is the id for the videoDisplay component. It seems to be going fine, but it doesn't. When I trace the Array after getting it from AMFPHP it looks right. But when I trace the cue points from the videoDisplay component, the sorting is not only reversed, but all cue points placed before 10 seconds are also reversed. The sorting of the Array after getting it from the database: 3.05 5.8 7.43 12.48 14.5 18.5 21.44 23.57 27.06 34.3 50.9 The sorting after attaching it to the VideoDisplay component: 50.9 34.3 27.06 23.57 21.44 18.5 14.5 12.48 3.05 5.8 7.43 In the first example the Array starts with the lowest number and ends up at the highest, which is how I like it. But after adding it to the VideoDisplay component, it starts at the top, going down to 12.48, and then reverses the order of the lower numbers. I can't find any solution to this. Am I doing it wrong, or is there something wrong with the CuePointManager class? Best regards, Thomas Viktil Onkel Estrup AS

[flexcoders] Event result not making sense
Hello everyone,
I have a form in an application that when it is edited, I want to send
the information back to the server to be updated in the database. I am
using focusOut to trigger the event at each text input field such as this
mx:TextInput id=first_name change=validateForm(event)
focusOut=updateUserFormField(event)/
The function I have writted to do the update is as follows
private function updateUserFormField(event:Event):void {
if (formType == update){
fieldName = event.target.parent.id;
fieldValue = event.target.parent.text;
Alert.show('Name = ' + fieldName);
Alert.show('Value = ' + fieldValue);
updateUserForm.send();
}
}
I put the alert's in for debugging to make sure I was extracting the
correct information to send in an httprequest call.
The question I have is why are both alert's displaying twice? This
function is somehow being called multiple times when I exit a field.
Does anyone have any insight into this?
Thanks in advance
Don

Furthermore, since early November there is a new option: Cinnamon. http://www.spicefactory.org/cinnamon/. It's a bit different than Granite since it does not use the RemoteObject API (so Cinnamon can also be used in pure AS3 projects without Flex). Cinnamon has full AMF3 support, optional integration with Spring configuration and a lot of flexibility for mapping AS3 classes to Java classes. Jens Halm Spicefactory
[flexcoders] Adobe Share and PDF inside Flex
Hi, I just signed up for the Adobe Share beta. The most interesting thing so far about this service is what appears to be a PDF document displayed inside a Flex component. The component allows one to page through the document, zoom, etc. I wonder if someone on this list who is also familiar with Share could shed some light on how that's done - is there a Flex component that can display PDF pages? I've been looking for something like that for a while, but haven't had much luck finding one. The only option I've seen so far was to convert the PDF pages to a set of PNG images, and then display those inside a Flex component. What I'd much prefer would be the ability to display PDF inside Flex. Thanks, -- Frank

Thanks everyone, all of your posts were useful, Samuel's in particular. Samuel R. Neff wrote: Flex does not talk to a database directly (except with AIR but I gather you're talking about a web app). Flex talks to a back end which then can talk to a database. Flex works really well with pretty much any back end, so if you're familiar with .NET stick to that, no reason to go to FDS/LCDS or anything else. The best way to communicate between Flex and .NET is through AMF Remoting. With that you can call .NET methods directly and the middle-ware libraries take care of the details for you.

No reason to use Flex Builder 2, the IDE is very stable. You can choose to target either the Flex 2 or Flex 3 SDK's and that choice depends on your release date. If you're releasing before about March 2008 then you may want to stick with the Flex 2 SDK. If later, then use Flex 3 SDK. An exact date has not been announced for Flex 3 release, but they've said Q1 2008. I would suggest ignoring Cairngorm for now--start out learning to develop flex apps and just use your pre-existing knowledge to partition out your apps well so you don't have an ugly mess of spaghetti code.

For example: I want to use my personal monthNames and dayNames for the component DateField, but I want to declare my values only once, and not every time I add a DateField component. I got the idea when I saw that I could define the labels for the OK, Cancel, Yes and No buttons from Alert messages, by changing the value of variables in the main application like: Alert.yesLabel = Sí; Alert.noLabel = No; Alert.cancelLabel = Cancelar; Alert.okLabel = Aceptar; Can I do something similar with other components? Where can I find the info about it? Thank you very much
[flexcoders] Calling play() on VideoDisplayer from JS using Flex-Ajax bridge doesn't work
Hello Folks,
I have created a simple VideoDisplay where I can play a video file.
I have setup the Flex-Ajax bridge so that when I click a button on the
page, I can access the elapsed time using code as below
var elapsedTime = flexApp.getInstructorWindow().getPlayheadTime();
All this works fine. Now, instead of initiating the play from a button
on the Flash window I want to do it from outside the flash windo - a
button on the html page. I use that button to call a JS function as
below which calls the ActionScript function startSync - same function
that is called when the button on the flash player is pressed (and
that works).
function startPlayBack(){
alert('In startPlayBack');
flexApp.getInstructorWindow().startSync();
alert('Calling slideshow');
slideShow();
}
I get the first alert message but not the second one and my video
player doesn't play anything. The startSync ActionScript function is
as below.
public function startSync():void {
Alert.show(test1, test2);
instructorWindow.source = videoFile;
totalTimeArea.text = ;
stopTimeArea.text = ;
instructorWindow.play();
// start_sync.send();
}
The videoFile variable is initialized when the VideoDisplay loads up
using the code below
videoFile = Application.application.parameters.videoFile;
All this works fine when the button is pressed on the flash player but
I can't get it to play with a call from JS from the web page. Any
thoughts on what could be going wrong would be appreciated.
I am on Win XP using FireFox 2.0.0.9 and Flash Player 9.
Thanks much for any feedback.
Sanjay.
BTW: instructorWindow is the id of my VideoDisplay as below
mx:VideoDisplay id=instructorWindow width=291 height=264 x=6
y=7/

[flexcoders] Re: List Filter Problem driving me crazy!
Maybe call invalidateList() when the filter changes? Just a guess.
--- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Rick Root [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
So I'm building an application which contains lists of items that I
want users to be able to filter, select some items, filter again,
select some more items, etc.
However, when a selected item is filtered out, when the filter is
removed, the item is no longer selected.
Take the following example:
http://www.it.dev.duke.edu/public/CheckBoxListTest/CheckBoxListTest.html
select Item 1 then filter for Item 2... don't select anything.
Remove the filter now.
Item 1 is no longer selected. But the label still says it is
selected.. the label is bound to the
{cboRatings.selectedIndices.length} property.
In my test application I can't get it to work the way I want it to at
all. In my real application, it works sometimes but not others.
I thought maybe it was the CheckBoxList component that someone had
written for me... or the CheckBoxListItemRenderer that was part of
that component, but i'm finding the same problem in the above test
application which only uses a simple, standard list component.
If it makes any different, I'm compiling the application with Flex
Builder 3 (beta 2). I've compiled it with the Flex 2.0.1 HF3 SDK and
the latest Flex 3 beta SDK.
Why doesn't the list remember what's selected? Doesn't the filter
simply prevent an item from displaying?

it? This is what I am having a problem with?? Any furthe suggestions??
In the Controller Class {

[flexcoders] cairngorm design question, need suggestions
hi all; i work in a project which includes the implementation of a RIA application in which the user will generate an XML based on an XSD defined language using dragdrops and etc. (user never sees the xml). at first, we developed a code generator using AIR that takes the XSD and generates vo's, commaders, events,model controller. so we just hand coded the views. and the demo was very successful. now the second phase of the project came and there are huge differences in the XSD, so we had to handcode additional things into commanders, which violated the auto-generation approach and resulted in some bugs inefficiency. then we decided to upgrade the code generator to create more clever commanders and more specific events. we have an important debate here for which we need suggestions, so i'm presenting you our question. when an event is being handled, there may be need to do some more things which is done by another commander and has a specific event. in such a situation, -- should the commander call the other commander just creating the event and sending it to the other's execute method or --should the commander create the event and just dispatch. the second is the normal way for the cairngorm specs but the first is much more efficient. so which one do you suggest? thnks. p.s. commanders are specific to VO's a a commander just edit's it's VO's data on the model.

Which version of Flex? Filtering essentially removes items from the
List so it should drop its notion of what is selected. There were
problems with selectedIndices in 2.x that should be fixed in 3.0

select Item 1 then filter for Item 2... don't select anything.
Remove the filter now.
Item 1 is no longer selected. But the label still says it is
selected.. the label is bound to the
{cboRatings.selectedIndices.length} property.
In my test application I can't get it to work the way I want it to at
all. In my real application, it works sometimes but not others.
I thought maybe it was the CheckBoxList component that someone had
written for me... or the CheckBoxListItemRenderer that was part of
that component, but i'm finding the same problem in the above test
application which only uses a simple, standard list component.
If it makes any different, I'm compiling the application with Flex
Builder 3 (beta 2). I've compiled it with the Flex 2.0.1 HF3 SDK and
the latest Flex 3 beta SDK.
Why doesn't the list remember what's selected? Doesn't the filter
simply prevent an item from displaying?

Subject: [flexcoders] Calling play() on VideoDisplayer from JS using Flex-Ajax
bridge doesn't work
Hello Folks,
I have created a simple VideoDisplay where I can play a video file.
I have setup the Flex-Ajax bridge so that when I click a button on the
page, I can access the elapsed time using code as below
var elapsedTime = flexApp.getInstructorWindow().getPlayheadTime();
All this works fine. Now, instead of initiating the play from a button
on the Flash window I want to do it from outside the flash windo - a
button on the html page. I use that button to call a JS function as
below which calls the ActionScript function startSync - same function
that is called when the button on the flash player is pressed (and
that works).
function startPlayBack(){
alert('In startPlayBack');
flexApp.getInstructorWindow().startSync();
alert('Calling slideshow');
slideShow();
}
I get the first alert message but not the second one and my video
player doesn't play anything. The startSync ActionScript function is
as below.
public function startSync():void {
Alert.show(test1, test2);
instructorWindow.source = videoFile;
totalTimeArea.text = ;
stopTimeArea.text = ;
instructorWindow.play();
// start_sync.send();
}
The videoFile variable is initialized when the VideoDisplay loads up
using the code below
videoFile = Application.application.parameters.videoFile;
All this works fine when the button is pressed on the flash player but
I can't get it to play with a call from JS from the web page. Any
thoughts on what could be going wrong would be appreciated.
I am on Win XP using FireFox 2.0.0.9 and Flash Player 9.
Thanks much for any feedback.
Sanjay.
BTW: instructorWindow is the id of my VideoDisplay as below
mx:VideoDisplay id=instructorWindow width=291 height=264 x=6

[flexcoders] Scrolling/viewstack
I have two components A and B in a ViewStack controlled by a link bar. B is simple, with no scrolling and some centered content. A is quite complex and includes a VBox containing a Repeater containing non-scrolling List instances. On its own A performs well and the VBox gets it's vertical scrollbar as needed. However, in the ViewStack, A does not shrink to match the ViewStack, and the VBox does not scroll. Update: If I set creationPolicy to all it *does* work. Sounds like a bug, no? Any ideas? I don't like using creationPolicy all. I suppose I could use View States rather than a ViewStack.

[flexcoders] Re: PopUpManager.removePopUp Not Removing Modal Overlay
I think I may have found my problem. Upon removing my pop-up, I'm calling a function which displays another component depending on the button the user clicks on in the pop-up. If I comment the code out, the pop-up dismisses gracefully and I can continue using the app as usual. Then, I figured I'd just listen for the event the PopUpManager dispatches once the modal overlay has been dismissed. Of course, there is no such event. I can only conclude that the display manager gets confused when it's trying to remove the modal overlay and at the same time changing the display underneath the overlay.

it? This is what I am having a problem with?? Any furthe suggestions? ?
In the Controller Class {
public function init() {
customClassInstance .addEventListene r
(menuitemClicked ,
menuitemClickHandle r);
}
Thanks again

Under what circumstances could something not on the displayList be clickable?
Bad programming ;-)

what am I not understanding about receiving events from another Class.
That events dispatched from an instance not on the display list do not
bubble.

Subject: [flexcoders] Can I have SWFLoader automatically scale the
content swf?
Hi,
I'm trying to do this thing where I have a VDividedBox, the top half
contains an SWFLoader that will load another Flex SWF. I want to
resize the SWFLoader automatically when the containing canvas is
resized by dragging the divider, and also for the content inside the
SWFLoader to scale automatically. Can this be done?
What I tried is something like:
test.mxml
=
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
layout=absolute
mx:VDividedBox width=543 height=312
mx:Canvas id=myCanvas height=300
mx:SWFLoader source=test2.swf id=ld maintainAspectRatio=true
height={myCanvas.height-20} scaleContent=true /
/mx:Canvas
mx:Canvas
mx:Text text=The bottom half of the vdivided box /
/mx:Canvas
/mx:VDividedBox
/mx:Application
test2.mxml
==
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
layout=absolute
mx:Text x=22 y=10 text=I want this content to scale/
mx:Image x=22 y=36 width=197 height=28 source=untitled.jpg/
/mx:Application
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

[flexcoders] Datagrid tab order?
Hi, I'm a bit confused about the tab order in a datagrid. The problem is I have a datagrid with 3 columns: column 1 - renderer is a checkbox control. I use onchange of the checkbox to update the underlying data column 2 - normal text column, editor is a editbox column 3 - checkbox, similar to column 1 Using tab to traverse the datagrid has weird behavior, i.e. first it seems to traverse all the column 2 editboxes (top rows first then bottom rows); then it traverses the checkboxes in each row (starting from top row again); after it has traversed everything, the tab order seems random now - it jumps around from editbox to checkbox or whatever. Is it because of the way the actual renderer/editor instances are created? Is there something I should be specifying to guarantee a nice, left-to-right top-to-bottom tab order? Thanks, Roy

RE: [flexcoders] Re: List renderer's malfunction because of Bitmap
Maybe their backgrounds have become opaque. Renderers get recycled so one instance can end up somewhere else in the list.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: PopUpManager.removePopUp Not Removing Modal Overlay
I'd have to debug through it to see why. Can you make a small test-case? From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of bryanpoopbartow Sent: Friday, November 16, 2007 3:29 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: PopUpManager.removePopUp Not Removing Modal Overlay I think I may have found my problem. Upon removing my pop-up, I'm calling a function which displays another component depending on the button the user clicks on in the pop-up. If I comment the code out, the pop-up dismisses gracefully and I can continue using the app as usual. Then, I figured I'd just listen for the event the PopUpManager dispatches once the modal overlay has been dismissed. Of course, there is no such event. I can only conclude that the display manager gets confused when it's trying to remove the modal overlay and at the same time changing the display underneath the overlay. Any thoughts on how to get around this? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com , bryanpoopbartow [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm using Flex 3 Beta 2. compiling against 2.0.1 Hotfix 3.

I can't get the modal overlay to go away. Has anyone experienced this or have any ideas why it might be happening? I should say that I've used this component in other apps with no problems whatsoever.

RE: [flexcoders] Scrolling/viewstack
Which one is the first visible child of the viewstack? When you say A does not shrink, does it bleed out the bottom of the VS (turn on borders to help see it). Are there scrollbars on the VS?

B is simple, with no scrolling and some centered content. A is quite complex and includes a VBox containing a Repeater containing non-scrolling List instances. On its own A performs well and the VBox gets it's vertical scrollbar as needed. However, in the ViewStack, A does not shrink to match the ViewStack, and the VBox does not scroll. Update: If I set creationPolicy to all it *does* work. Sounds like a bug, no? Any ideas? I don't like using creationPolicy all. I suppose I could use View States rather than a ViewStack.
