If you have:


  


You get a subclass of Canvas named MyClass, and a local public scoped
instance of an IFactory called inlineEditor, right?

Has java client (thick) for LCDS been tried? Any ideas how can this be
done.

[flexcoders] Drag and drop steals all mouse events

[Mike Pearce]

Ok, so I guess this is fair enough.

 

But what happens when you need to know the xmouse and ymouse position during
the drag operation?

 

Can anyone help out here? There _has_ to be a way to do this.

 

I need to provide visual feedback in my component that requires knowing the
mouse's location during a drag-and-drop operation.

 

Thanks in advance,

Mike

RE: [flexcoders] Only last row shown from dataservice result (Hibernate+LCDS)

[Jeff Vroom]

It sounds like you have a complex identity object – i.e. not a set of primitive 
properties.   Try adding a toString() method in your identity class which 
returns a unique string for each instance.   I think that we fixed this in 2.6 
so that is not necessary (now available on our web site).

Hi,

I'm using hibernate & LCDS 2.51
Using dataservices, result gets filled into an ArrayCollection, which is then 
bound to a Datagrid.

My object uses composite ID, which already have the hashCode and equals methods 
in the identity object.
Now the problem is only the last row is shown in the datagrid.
The rest are just blank rows and when I clicked on the blank row, the "Cannot 
access property null object reference" error pops out.

Everything seems normal based on the log (especially when the object gets 
serialized)

Have anyone experience this behaviour before?
I've read somewhere about this similar case in adobe bug reports, but I'm not 
really sure if this case is a known bug or merely my bad code.
Any comments are greatly appreciated.
Thanks

RE: [flexcoders] need help with a custom item renderer

I'd start with mx.controls.listClasses.ListItemRenderer.  It can already
display an icon and text.  Copy the source and modify as needed.
Putting stuff at negative coordinates is generally not recommended.

i am developing using flex 3.0 and was trying to expand on some of 
the item renderer examples that i saw at alex's flex closet, but i 
ran into some trouble. i am trying to create a renderer that has a 
clickable image and a text component. i decided to subclass TextInput 
and add a preceding image but it just doesn't render properly. when 
first displayed, the image is positioned at x=-8, y=-8 despite 
explicitly setting the x and y coordinates. when the mouseover forces 
a redraw, the image is properly positioned. also, there appears to be 
a thin border at the bottom of the cell that i cannot get rid of. any 
help would be appreciated. the code is listed below. i am new to 
flex, so alternatives to this approach are welcome.

thanks

ublic class ParameterRenderer extends TextInput
{
private var image:Image;

public function ParameterRenderer()
{
super();
setStyle("borderStyle", "none");
setStyle("paddingBottom", 0);
}

override public function validateNow():void
{
// see BackgroundColorRenderer
}

override protected function updateDisplayList(w:Number, 
h:Number):void {
super.updateDisplayList(w, h);

// lifted from CenteredImage
if (image.content) {
var contentHolder:Loader = image.content.parent as Loader;
contentHolder.width = contentHolder.contentLoaderInfo.width;
contentHolder.height = contentHolder.contentLoaderInfo.height;
contentHolder.x = textField.x;
contentHolder.y = (h - contentHolder.contentLoaderInfo.height) / 2;
}
}

override protected function createChildren():void {
super.createChildren();

textField.selectable = false;

if (!image) {
image = new Image();
// attempt to get image to position properly
image.width = 16;
image.height = 16;
image.source = "../img/delete2.gif";
addChild(DisplayObject(image));
image.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, delete_onClick);

Well.. in the first one it's easy to see the difference. There is a

i scroll down the page and than come back to the document. It repeats
the dropdowns, some times textinputs gets crazy and disapear but when
you mouse over them it back up.

The second one its the datagrids.

It happens when i have a big scroll and scroll up and down.

If you've defined a component via , the name is
auto-generated as Josh says, but it generates an IFactory, so you can
use the factory to get new instances

AS is not Java.  See the modules presentation on my blog.

 

You won't want to reference MyScreen as MyScreen in the main app, but

* Created a new mxml module(MyScreen.mxml) which is implementing the 
IScreen interface
* The main application's SWF has just the IScreen.as and the 
application.mxml
* The MyScreen.swf has the MyScreen.as and the related dependencies

Im trying to instantiate the class MyScreen from the 
application.mxml. Im loading the swf file using a ModuleLoader and 
once the module is loaded, Im trying to create an instance of the 
MyScreen using the getDefinitionByName.

I get the following error
Error #1065: Variable MyScreen is not defined.

I get this because MyScreen is a seperate module and not compiled 
into the main swf file. I dont want the MyScreen to be compiled into 
the main app as my requirement is that I dont know which 
implementation of the screen, I willbe loading in the runtime.

In Java I would just define the interface in the main application and 
then, load the class that is implementing the interface from the 
classpath and I should be able to call the methods in the interface.

Any thoughts!!!

I have a sample workspace showing this problem

Thanks for your time in reading this email.

 

[flexcoders] Re: Can SQLite work in non-AIR envirnoment ?

[itdanny2002]

Seems that FLEX (web base, not AIR) cannot use SQLite,
then, can I keep data in cookie. Any idea ?

[flexcoders] need help with a custom item renderer

[ndele_sutton]

i am developing using flex 3.0 and was trying to expand on some of 
the item renderer examples that i saw at alex's flex closet, but i 
ran into some trouble. i am trying to create a renderer that has a 
clickable image and a text component. i decided to subclass TextInput 
and add a preceding image but it just doesn't render properly. when 
first displayed, the image is positioned at x=-8, y=-8 despite 
explicitly setting the x and y coordinates. when the mouseover forces 
a redraw, the image is properly positioned. also, there appears to be 
a thin border at the bottom of the cell that i cannot get rid of. any 
help would be appreciated.  the code is listed below.  i am new to 
flex, so alternatives to this approach are welcome.

thanks


ublic class ParameterRenderer extends TextInput
{
private var image:Image;

public function ParameterRenderer()
{
super();
setStyle("borderStyle", "none");
setStyle("paddingBottom", 0);
}

override public function validateNow():void
{
// see BackgroundColorRenderer
}

override protected function updateDisplayList(w:Number, 
h:Number):void {
super.updateDisplayList(w, h);

// lifted from CenteredImage
if (image.content) {
var contentHolder:Loader = image.content.parent as Loader;
contentHolder.width = contentHolder.contentLoaderInfo.width;
contentHolder.height = contentHolder.contentLoaderInfo.height;
contentHolder.x = textField.x;
contentHolder.y = (h - contentHolder.contentLoaderInfo.height) / 2;
}
}

override protected function createChildren():void {
super.createChildren();

textField.selectable = false;

if (!image) {
image = new Image();
// attempt to get image to position properly
image.width = 16;
image.height = 16;
image.source = "../img/delete2.gif";
addChild(DisplayObject(image));
image.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, delete_onClick);
invalidateDisplayList();
image.move(2,0);
}
}

override protected function createBorder():void {
// thought this might get rid of bottom border
}

public function delete_onClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
// do something
}

My problem details are:

I am trying to put a custom item renderer in my list component. And the
custom renderer is an HBox. Now, what happens is when I select an item
in
the list, it get selected(which is absolutely fine). But when I scroll

I find that the item underlying to my previous selected item is also got

Can anyone point me to any previous post or otherwise can put some light

Hi,

I need to use alternate colors for items within a ADG. alternatingItemColors
is not what i'm looking for because I need that child objects have the same

Re: [flexcoders] Can SQLite work in non-AIR envirnoment ?

[Sid Maskit]

The SQLite database is part of the AIR architecture, not of flex. So you can 
only use the database in an air application, not in a flex application that is 
running inside a web browser.

If you do deploy an air application, it will provide you with the basic tools 
for synchronizing your data, but does not provide any actual synchronization 
engine. In other words, it allows you to insert into and select from the SQLite 
database, arrange selected data however you wish, and communicate with the 
server, but the actual logic of synchronization is completely up to you. You 
should be aware that this can get quite daunting if you need to allow for 
multiple users to share data and/or each user to store data on multiple 
computers.

Thanks. I will use MySQL in server side

I wanna to store data in client machine to 
shorten retrieve time via network since the 
data doesn't often change.

Absolutely it can be done, but you're probably going to need some kind
of lay in between (depending on how you do things).  Therefore, you're
probably better off treating the remote database as something abstract
rather than concretely knowing that it's SQLite - as it's usually more
likely it'll be something more like MySQL.

[flexcoders] Datagrid Query Issue

[spark.edesigns]

New to Flex but enjoying it!

I have a datagrid, dgCountry, that is populated by a httpservice call. The 
datagrid shows the 
list of countries in  a group, for example, Latin America, Caribbean, etc, etc.

When the user chooses a country from the grid, I need to query the database 
again to locate 
the  store locations in the chosen country and populate another grid, the 
dgStoreList.

How is the accomplished in FLEX 2? I've been working at this for quite some 
time but can't 
find a solution. Please help, I'm dying over here!!

All knowledge is greatly appreciated.

cheers.

[flexcoders] drag and drop in air cairngorm app

[Dan Vega]

I have tested some code in a seperate application and everything is fine. In
my app I am using Cairngorm and I have a custom view. My main file is pretty
simple as you can see below. The problem I having is that in the custom view
I can never get the dragdrop to fire. The enter and exit trace statements
execute just fine. As I said, I set up a test app and this seems to work
fine. Anyone know what im doing wrong here?

CUSTOM VIEW

Re: [flexcoders] Re: new Component() ?

[Josh McDonald]

Well no, you can't do what you're asking :)

When you use:


  
...
  


It's creating a new subclass of Canvas with a generated name, and you can't
create new classes at run-time without bytecode manipulation (which isn't
really an option in Flex yet unfortunately).

But what exactly are you trying to achieve? If you're just displaying text,
but it needs to be different to the field data, what you need is a
labelFunction, not an itemRenderer.

[flexcoders] Re: rendering problem

[Rafael Faria]

Alex,

Because i knew you would say to check your blog i had done this before
write it here. I couldn't find anything about rendering problems. The
only thing i found there was about item renderered and i don't use any
on this case.

Any other suggestion?

[flexcoders] Re: new Component() ?

[Rafael Faria]

I would but i wan't to do it FROM actionscript and not from the mxml.
Like i said i want it being created on the fly.

How would you do that from actionscript?

[flexcoders] LCDS Memory Usage

[Geoffrey]

Looking in the LiveCycle Data Services ES Developer's Guide, page 190,
it states:
 "By default, the Data Management Service caches items returned
from fill() and getItem() calls and uses cached items to implement
paging and to build object graphs on the server when implementing lazy
associations. This causes a complete copy of the managed state of all
active clients to be kept in each server's memory."

Here's what I think that means.  If I have 100 clients, and each
client has one managed collection that contains 100 items in it, then
there would be 10,000 copies residing in memory on the server(100
objects for 100 users).

Am I understanding this correctly?  Does this seem inefficient?  What
if those objects happened to be really big objects... I mean really
big.  Seems like that would take up a lot of memory on the server.

Has anyone come up against this in practice?

Thanks,
 Geoff

Apparently, it is some kind of bug with the control bar. When I take the 
Hslider out of the control bar, the problem goes away as in this example,

http://reenie.org/test/ScrubTest2/ScrubTest.html

However, now I have another problem, the video in the second example is 
a youtube flv file  and it doesnt work with the scrubber. Any idea why ? 
Is there anyway around it ?

The scrubber shows progress, but now it is a continuous black line and 
you can't change the position. The Youtube video does has metadata and I 
can look at it , but I don't know what in particular to look for.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: new Component() ?

[Pedro Sena]

Hi Rafael,

What do u think of put some getters in your object instead of create various
item renderers that just have little funcionality ?

Just my 2 cents

Re: [flexcoders] Re: new Component() ?

I don't see why you don't just use  like in your first
example? You don't need to make any extra files. Or are you building your
entire datagrid programatically?

[flexcoders] Re: new Component() ?

[Rafael Faria]

Hi Johannes,

Thanks for your reply but my question isn't really about how to put
the columns into the datagrid. It's actually how to create dynamically
components to put inside the columns.

See i don't want to create 4,5,6,7 different itemrenderes files so i
can insert into the columns i would create them on the fly,
programmatically  .  Does it make sense? 

Anyone have some idea about it?!

Thanks
Raf

Hi Gordon,

We have written custom resource bundles for our application without
modifying any core resource bundles, what we want to compile these
resource bundles (.properties files) in separate swf and load them in
application at runtime but while compiling we don't want to use any
flex or LCDS resource bundles, we want Flex and LCDS resource bundles
to load them at runtime or use them as RSL along with custom resource
bundles. 

Thank you,
Parag

I am adding to and removing from ArrayCollection - and when I do that,

Is there a way to "touch" the ArrayCollection so as to prompt Tree to

Or is the preferred way to step walk through ArrayCollection and modify

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Construct simple http request header

[Tracy Spratt]

Also, the {name1:value1, name2:value2} syntax is the equivalent (but
slightly more efficient form) of:

var oHeaders:Object = new Object();

oHeaders.foo = 'bar';

oHeaders.boo = 'baz';

httpService.headers = oHeaders;

Stick with the object, which is essentially a set of name=value pairs:

httpService.headers = {foo:'bar', boo:'baz'};

Note, do not quote the name of the property.

[flexcoders] Re: Getting error when trying to get id of label when adding evt listener

[Michael VanDaniker]

You want to look at the event's currentTarget instead of target.

>From the documentation for MouseEvent:

target = The InteractiveObject instance under the pointing device. The
target is not always the object in the display list that registered
the event listener. Use the currentTarget property to access the
object in the display list that is currently processing the event.

Re: [flexcoders] Getting error when trying to get id of label when adding evt listener

[Toby Ashley]

Try using  evt.currentTarget.id instead of evt.target.id.

>From your error message, you can see that evt.target is a UITextField
object, rather than the Label which you are expecting.

[flexcoders] Re: Construct simple http request header

[ron_mori]

Tracy,

Thanks - it worked beautifully.
For the records:  httpService.headers = {'foo':'bar'};

Now, not to seem ungrateful, I need to add two headers.
Suggestions?  An array resulted in object: object

[flexcoders] Getting error when trying to get id of label when adding evt listener

[timgerr]

Hello all,
I am getting this error when I add an event listener like this to a
lable and then calling the event.target.id.  Here is the error:

#1069: Property id not found on mx.core.UITextField and there is no
default value

Here is the code:
import mx.controls.Label;
private function WTF():void
{
var lbl:Label = new Label();
lbl.text = 'Testing measdfasdfas';
lbl.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,DOME);
lbl.id = 'KKSKS';
addChild(lbl);
}
private function DOME(evt:MouseEvent):void
{
trace(evt.target.id);
}


I get the error when the evt.target.id is called, I am not sure why
this error is being called.  Is there another way to get the label's id?

Thanks,
timgerr

[flexcoders] Strange Runtime 1010 error

[Amy]

I have these two lines one after another in my code:

trace('val', xmlItem.child('subjects').child('subject').(attribute
('name')==series.displayName).attribute
(viewAsSAT ?'satScore': 'adjustedScore'));
var nodeValue:String = String(xmlItem.child('subjects').child
('subject').(attribute('name')==series.displayName).attribute
(viewAsSAT ?'satScore': 'adjustedScore'));

The trace statement gives me "val 90".  The next line gives me

[flexcoders] Re: Construct simple http request header

[ron_mori]

Not quite -

When I inspect the request, this approach results in
application/x-www-form-urlencoded parms of name=foo&value=bar

What I'm looking for is headers in the http request, headers like:
...
Keep-Alive: 300
Connectin: keep-alive
Referer: 
to name but a few.

The 'headers' attribute of the httpService appears to be the right
spot, I'm just without a way to specify.

I'll try a combo of the object build and headers use..

All pgm suggestions / ideas are welcome.

Thanks

It seems to be that you'd be better off with an array containing your 
ArrayCollections and then just pull out the one by index.  However, 
this['myVarName'] will allow you to dynamically reference the 
variable.  Good luck with your homework :-)

You're welcome.  I'm wondering if the dataProvider on adg is already

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Runtime CSS and "SWF is not a loadable module" -- new information

[Alex Harui]

You can try using swfdump to compare the swfs.  I use mxmlc to compile
css swfs without problem.

Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2008 10:39 AM
To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com
Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Runtime CSS and "SWF is not a loadable module"
-- new information

 

Although I do get a runtime error when the application tries to load the
style SWF that I 
made via "mxmlc BasicStyle.css" (the SWF in the assets/ folder), I was
finally able to get 
styles to successfully load using the SWF generated by FB3.

I'd still like to know how to load style SWFs made via mxmlc though.

In the meantime, here's how I got the styles to load:

* In FB 3, I right-clicked (CTRL-Clicked on a mac) on the
assets/BasicStyle.css file and 
selected "Compile CSS to SWF". This put a check mark next to that
option.
* Then I noticed that FB3 compiled the CSS file into a SWF and located
that swf in:
bin/Users//Documents/Flex Builder
3/testRuntimeCss/assets/BasicStyles.swf
notice that FB3 reproduced the directory structure of the Flex Project
location under the 
bin directory (rather than putting the style SWF in the assets/ folder
directly).

* So I updated my MXML file to read:
StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("Users/jbattat/Documents/Flex Builder

3/testRuntimeCss/assets/BasicStyles.swf")
(the path passed to loadStyleDeclarations() used to be
../assets/BasicStyles.swf)

* Then I did a debug run, clicked the Button and the styles were
successfully loaded.

So some obvious questions remain:
* Do you really have to code the path to the style swf in this way, or
can you tell
FB3 to compile the CSS file into a SWF and place the SWF directly in the
bin-debug/ 
folder (or elsewhere)
* How do you get runtime styles to load using style SWFs made via mxmlc
(this is the 
critical question for me).
* Is there a way to "diff" two SWFs? I have one SWF (made by FB3) that
works and one 
(made by mxmlc) that does not. Seeing the differences between the two
would be 
instructive.

As always, thanks for your help

[flexcoders] Re: parallel coordinates component with Flex3

[Michael VanDaniker]

My blog is at http://michaelvandaniker.com
  and our class webpage can be found here
  .

Our project involved a parallel coordinates plot, a heat map, and a
rank-by-feature explorer.  The application we built is tailored towards
the dataset we worked with, so its going to take some massaging before
it's ready for generic use.  Krist is in the process of extending the
application and we're putting together a more publishable paper than the
one on the class webpage.

RE: [flexcoders] Trees, DataProviders and dynamic screen updates

[Tracy Spratt]

If you use the ArrayCollection API to make the updates to the
dataProvider, the changes should automatically reflect in the UI.

 

How are you updating the ArrayCollection items?

Subject: [flexcoders] Trees, DataProviders and dynamic screen updates

 

Hi,
I am trying to display changes in state for proxy objects (where "real"
state exists on a 
server). I have defined a Tree and set its dataProvider to be an
ArrayCollection. I have tried 
having this be an array of references to actual proxy object and also as
array of dynamically 
created Objects (of form {name:foo.toString(), object:foo}

Server-side events result in client being notified that properties in
proxy object have 
changed. I would like these changes in proxy object properties to
propagate through the 
Tree's items.

I have searched docs and this forum, but not found anything that
addresses this issue. At the 
same time, I suspect that this is something that has been discussed -
and may simply involve 
setting some flag on the Tree or the DataProvider...

Thanks for any help!

[flexcoders] HorizontalList and variable column width

[rameensabiti]

I have HorizontalList with an item renderer.  Is it possible to make
the row width as wide as the renderer, as the renderer can have
different widths.  Something like variableRowHeight but for columns
width instead.  Thanks.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: parallel coordinates component with Flex3

[Brian Staats]

Thanks for the pic Krist, excellent work!

I am looking at network logs (IDS, email, antivirus, etc...) which can
be very large, but for my purpose I will use a subset so the size will
vary.

Does your implementation have any interactions (brushing, sorting,
coordinate adding, subtracting, reordering)? Any clustering or
filtering algorithms? These are all features I would like to develop
into a PC vis.

Like I mentioned... the development I have done thus far is very meek
compared to your accomplishment. Do you have any interest opening up
your implementation so that other devs like myself could contribute
and expand upon what you have done thus far?

Rather than asking someone here to write your code for you, it would
be better for you to do some reading/investigation (Perhaps purchase a
book and/or video training), then take a stab at writing it yourself.
If you are still having problems, post the code and someone may
endeavor to help you correct it so it works the way you want.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: reflection of proerties in an object

[Gordon Smith]

A sealed object is an instance of any class that wasn't declared with
the 'dynamic' attribute. Most classes, such as Button, are non-dynamic.
This means that if you try to access a property that wasn't declared at
compile time, you'll get a runtime error. For example, if you do

 

var b:Button = new Button();

b["foo"] = 1;

 

you'll get an RTE because the Button class didn't declare a property
named 'foo' at compile time and wasn't declared to be dynamic.

 

But if you do

 

var o:Object = new Object();

o["foo"] = 1;

 

you'll create a new 'foo' property on o. This is allowed because the
Object class was declared to be dynamic.

 

You declare a class to be dynamic like this:

 

public dynamic class MyClass extends SomeOtherClass

{

 

}

[flexcoders] Re: parallel coordinates component with Flex3

[Michael VanDaniker]

I recently worked on a project for an info viz course, and one of my
group mates built a parallel coordinates plot.  I've been blogging
about the different visualizations we developed, and I was about to
write up the pcp.  It'll be a while until I get around to it though.

One word of warning: pcp's often have hundreds of lines, and you're
going to run into some major performance issues if you try and pull
that off with the charting controls.  We found that using the graphics
class was much more efficient.

Hey there,

I have a UIcomponent which contents 5 more image components inside. I would 
like to show 
the UIcomponent after all images have loaded successfully.

If any image is still loading, the UIcomponent will not be displayed.

Is there a easy way to add a event listener on the UIcomponent rather than add 
them for each 
of image component?

any suggestions?




  

Re: [flexcoders] Sending multiple arguments to a CFC

[Sid Maskit]

You should be able to send multiple arguments by just separating them with a 
comma, like this:

chartmth_RO.qMonthlyUsage( 2008, 04);

By the way, I notice that there is no comma in the sample you provided. 
Assuming that there is a comma in the code you're actually using, what is

I currently connect to Coldfusion with a RemoteObject and pass a single 
argument. Is there a way to pass multiple arguements? Just adding a 
comma separated list of arguments in the parens does not seem to work.

[lynxoid7]

Would listening for creationComplete on the parent component do it? It
is only fired after all children have been initialized.

[flexcoders] How to check all children have been loaded?

[flexawesome]

Hey there,

I have a UIcomponent which contents 5 more image components inside. I would 
like to show 
the UIcomponent after all images have loaded successfully.

If any image is still loading, the UIcomponent will not be displayed.

Is there a easy way to add a event listener on the UIcomponent rather than add 
them for each 
of image component?

any suggestions?

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Encapsulating a custom flex component?

[Sid Maskit]

In thinking about this a little more, I have come up with a third way of 
achieving a private sub-component within an MXML-based component. Like the 
others, this is somewhat hacky, but it should work. This one has the advantage 
of allowing you to fully declare the sub-component using MXML. Further, using 
this approach, your other MXML components can bind to the private 
sub-component, although indirectly using what I'm calling a proxy.

Here's some sample code:








Since the textProxy variable is private, and the TextInput control for which it 
is a proxy has no id, I believe that this should create a situation equivalent 
to where there was the ability to mark the TextInput control itself as private.

Hope that helps,

Sid

[flexcoders] Re: Runtime CSS and "SWF is not a loadable module" -- new information

[jamalwally]

Although I do get a runtime error when the application tries to load the style 
SWF that I 
made via "mxmlc BasicStyle.css"  (the SWF in the assets/ folder), I was finally 
able to get 
styles to successfully load using the SWF generated by FB3.

I'd still like to know how to load style SWFs made via mxmlc though.

In the meantime, here's how I got the styles to load:

* In FB 3, I right-clicked (CTRL-Clicked on a mac) on the assets/BasicStyle.css 
file and 
selected "Compile CSS to SWF".  This put a check mark next to that option.
* Then I noticed that FB3 compiled the CSS file into a SWF and located that swf 
in:
bin/Users//Documents/Flex Builder 
3/testRuntimeCss/assets/BasicStyles.swf
   notice that FB3 reproduced the directory structure of the Flex Project 
location under the 
bin directory (rather than putting the style SWF in the assets/ folder 
directly).

* So I updated my MXML file to read:
StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("Users/jbattat/Documents/Flex Builder 
3/testRuntimeCss/assets/BasicStyles.swf")
  (the path passed to loadStyleDeclarations() used to be 
../assets/BasicStyles.swf)

* Then I did a debug run, clicked the Button and the styles were successfully 
loaded.

So some obvious questions remain:
* Do you really have to code the path to the style swf in this way, or can you 
tell
  FB3 to compile the CSS file into a SWF and place the SWF directly in the 
bin-debug/ 
folder (or elsewhere)
* How do you get runtime styles to load using style SWFs made via mxmlc (this 
is the 
critical question for me).
* Is there a way to "diff" two SWFs?  I have one SWF (made by FB3) that works 
and one 
(made by mxmlc) that does not.  Seeing the differences between the two would be 
instructive.

As always, thanks for your help

Re: [flexcoders] Measurement and scrolling

[Richard Rodseth]

That would be interesting, Josh.
For what it's worth, if I add the following back to the measure()
method of MyContainer (a stand-in for TiledCanvas):

measuredMinWidth = measuredWidth;
measuredMinHeight = measuredHeight;

and wrap it as follows:









then the scrollbar behaviour is fine - i.e. I can scroll to view the
entire MyContainer, including padding. This is a bit ironic, since my
quest (encouraged by Alex) has been to eliminate the need for any such
wrapper. On the other hand, the same workaround did not work (yet) for
the full TiledCanvas (I've got double scroll bars).

Perhaps your idea of a generic scroller container is the right
approach. For bonus points, it could encompass the other custom
component that interests me, the one that scales down to fit :)
Imagine resizePolicy = SCALE | SCROLL

[flexcoders] Re: Runtime CSS and "SWF is not a loadable module"

[jamal wally]

Hello again,

OK, I'm sending the style swf as an attachment to this post.  If it doesn't 
work, I will email directly to you Alex (thank you very much for your 
patience).  

Alex, to answer your question about the location of the style swf:  The style 
SWF is local to my machine and lives in a subdirectory of the project.  

I named the flex project testRuntimeCss and the project files are in:
  ~/Documents/Flex Builder 3/testRuntimeCss/
The main MXML file is in the default location (src/) and the style CSS and SWF 
files are both in assets/.

Let me also point out that in order to minimize the potential for user-error on 
my part, I have re-done my test runtime css Flex Project so that it follows the 
Adobe example at:
  http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=styles_10.html

I copied/pasted their example simple CSS into a file called BasicStyles.css 
which lives in the assets/ folder of my project.  For completeness, here is the 
content of the CSS file, copied directly from the Adobe help page listed above.

/* styles/runtime/assets/BasicStyles.css */
Button {
fontSize:24;
color: #FF9933;
}

Label {
fontSize:24;
color: #FF9933;
}

I then compiled the CSS file into a SWF with:
 > mxmlc BasicStyle.css

The resulting swf, BasicStyle.swf, is attached.

By the way, I am using the mxmlc app from SDK 3.0.0 (on Mac Leopard)
 > which mxmlc
/Applications/Adobe Flex Builder 3/sdks/3.0.0/bin/mxmlc

Another thing to point out is that I have done this both with "Compile CSS to 
SWF" option for the BasicStyle.css file on and off.  Both approaches give the 
same result (runtime error -- described below).

I then copied/pasted the MXML content from the Adobe help page into my main 
MXML file.  Again, for completeness, here is the MXML that I used:



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






 

When I debug in FB3, the application SWF successfully loads in my web browser. 
But when I click on the button labeled "Click Me", the application crashes.  
The error I get is:

  Error: Unable to load style(SWF is not a loadable module):
  ../assets/BasicStyles.swf.

Just before that error, I get the following trace which suggests that the SWF 
style file was, indeed found.

 [SWF] Users:jbattat:Documents:Flex Builder  
3:testRuntimeCss:assets:BasicStyles.swf - 34,571 bytes after decompression

Please let me know if you find a problem with the attached swf.

[flexcoders] Hslider layout problem

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Hello,

This is a simple example of a VideoDisplay and veiwsource is available 
for this application.
http://reenie.org/test/scrubTest/ScrubTest.html

The Hslider is being used as a scrubber to move the video playhead. It 
works fine until I add the second panel, which is empty. Even then, it 
works fine until you  scroll the page up and down. Then the  Hslider 
moves to the top, and is not functional anymore.

What is causing this problem and how do I fix it ?

[flexcoders] Re: Problem With type checking...

[Michael Ritchie]

Is the ArrayCollection FamilyMember and FriendMember located in the
Cairngorm Model or are you passing these into the Module through an
Interface?

[flexcoders] Re: parallel coordinates component with Flex3

[brian.staats]

I have started development (3 days into it) on parallel coordinates
using Flex 3. However, I am not having much luck at the moment
(between diving into the depths of flex charting and other
obligations). I would like to encourage you and others to join an open
source effort to completing a flex parallel coordinate component.

I have pinged mjohnsson on the adobe forums to see if s(he) is
interested as well... no response yet.

http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=60&catid=585&threadid=1373433&enterthread=y

I dont have much code at the moment, but Ill start the google project
(or whatever) if I can get some partners in crime.

You interested? Anyone else?

Nevermind...needed a dataFunction on the horizontalAxis as well.

RE: [flexcoders] event listeners on Sprites - performance problem

[Alex Harui]

10 to 15 shouldn't be a problem.  Make sure it is only that many (and
you didn't create more and stack them on top of the others).

 

Are you saying the addEventLIstener calls are affecting the cpu load?

I created a component what I call bookmark bar where there are markers
that you can click
to jump/scroll to a particular portion of a list (given the index).
Similar to Eclipse/Flexbuilder when you have
errors and there are markers on the right side pane that lets you jump
to the erroneous line. I am using 
this for a datagrid using Canvas as parent component.

var uiComponent:UIComponent = new UIComponent(); 
addChild(uiComponent);

for (var i:int=0; i<_dataProvider.length; i++) {
var bm:Bookmark = _dataProvider[i] as Bookmark; 

sprite = new MySprite(); // extends Sprite. Creates an instance Sprite
for each marker
sprite.graphics.lineStyle(3, bm.color, 1, false, LineScaleMode.NORMAL,
CapsStyle.SQUARE); 
sprite.graphics.moveTo(x, y);
sprite.graphics.lineTo(x + xOffset, y);
... 
sprite.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, scrollToLine);
sprite.buttonMode = true;
...
uiComponent.addChild(sprite); 
}

It works as expected but I noticed it is heavy on CPU and affects the
responsiveness of the
UI. CPU spikes at 55% to 60% even if I only have a few markers (10 to
15).
The lag is very noticeable because just hovering the mouse pointer over
the list,
the item highlighter, delay in rendering the display is very evident.
It doesnt happen on my app when I turn it off.

Am I doing this right? any workaround?

Regards,
Stephen
