[flexcoders] mx:PopUpMenuButton drop down menu looks blurd when wmode is opaque
Hello all: I'm using the mx:PopUpMenuButton and I set the dataProvider to be a fixed XML list in the mxml file Everything looks fine if the wmode in browser is set as window. But I want to use transparent or opaque. Then, when I use Google Chrome, or IE7, the drop down menu looks some fuzzy, I need to use mouse to move on it to make it finished the drawing function. Any idea about that? Thanks.

Thank you gents - that solved my anonymous function problem and
started me down the road of a more generic solution.
Borrowing directly from ExtJS [1] (licenced under GPLv3) and extending
the Function primative, I came up with this:
/**
* Create a combined function call sequence of the original function +
the passed function.
* The resulting function returns the results of the original
function. The passed fcn is called
* with the parameters of the original function.
*
* Parameters:
*
* * fcn : Function
*The function to sequence
* * scope : Object
*(optional) The scope of the passed fcn (Defaults to scope of
original function)
*
* Returns:
*
* * Function
*The new function
*/
Function.prototype.createSequence =
function(fcn:Function,scope:Object=null):Function {
if(typeof fcn!=function){
return this
}
var C=this;
return function(){
var D=C.apply(this,arguments);
fcn.apply(scope||this,arguments);
return D
}
}
And then an alternative addEventListener function which accepts an
options config object:
public function addListener(fn,opts=null) {
if(opts.single) {
fn = fn.createSequence(function(event) {
event.currentTarget.removeEventListener(event.type, fn)
})
}
myEventBroadcaster.addEventListener(Event.EVENT_TYPE,fn);
}

[flexcoders] Chart ItemRenderer - Seeking Confirmation of this Bad Memory Leak Queue Problem
I submitted this issue to the Adobe Flex Bug Mgmt System a few weeks back but haven't as yet seen a comment, nor did my last post on this forum yield a response, so I'm going to give it another go here. The problem I'm seeing is that you cannot dynamically switch itemRenderers on a chart series at runtime. You can code it, and run it, but any and all previous itemRenderers remain active. Since your likely initial graphics command is Graphics.clear(), you may not notice the problem as each itemRenderer clears the previous itemRenderer's drawing, BUT under the covers this continued switching of itemRenderers will add itemRenderers to the priorityQueue, eating memory and slowing things down along the way. ItemRenderers are never removed from the queue. I'm hoping someone with knowledge, or at least interest, could weigh in and let me know if indeed it's a bug, or if I'm coding this incorrectly, or if there's an alternative approach, etc... I'm polishing off a 3D ColumnChart and may have to remove support for dynamic itemRenderers. More info, a screenshot of a huge priorityQueue, and sample code can be found in my bug report: https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FLEXDMV- 1882. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me move past this issue. Cheers, Eddie

[flexcoders] Re: Date chooser component with only months and years
Hi, You can hide the date grid in the component, by using the mx_internal namespace: e.g: myDateChooser.mx_internal::dateGrid.visible = false you can then just grab the month / year values as you need them: var month:int = myDateChooser.displayedMonth var year:int = myDateChooser.displayedYear you will have to import mx.core.mx_internal for this to work, and anything using the mx_internal namespace may change in the future, so you may need to review your code if/when you use a newer version of the framework. Hope that helps. Cheers. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, lagos_tout [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'm relatively new to Flex.

If i dont set a percentwidth=100 on the text, the text does not wrap. If i do the the uicomponent following the text is displayed at the far right and does not look good when the text component has a small string in it.. thx. For some reason, my posts are empty when i use the rich text editor. In any case, if the parent's width is absolute, use maxwidth as such.

[flexcoders] Runtime default parameter
Hi, How to set the default running parameter for testing ? Normally, we create a program named abcde. We run path+abcde. However, I want to add some parameter after the program for testing e.g. path+abcde+#123 i.e.http: ...abcde#123 Now, I run the program and then type #123 on url manually. Of course, 123 is not hard-coded. I may enter 234 or 456 for testing. Any faster method ?
RE: [flexcoders] Pure MVC
Yes it does - PureMVC MultiCore ... This variation supports modular programming, allowing the use of independent program modules each with their own independent PureMVC 'Core'. A Core is a set of the four main actors used in the Standard framework (Model, View, Controller and Facade). This version of the framework uses http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiton_pattern Multitons instead of Singletons. Rather than storing a single instance of the class, a Multiton stores a map of instances. Each Core is referenced by an associated Multiton Key. The MultiCore Version of the framework was developed due to the widespread need for modular support in a world of ever-more ambitious Rich Internet Applications which must load and unload large pieces of functionality at runtime. For instance a PDA application might need to dynamically load and unload modules for managing task list, calendar, email, contacts, and files.

Re: [flexcoders] about keyboard operation in flex
Anyway
If you open the index.template.html that's stored in html-template you can
avoid that browser borring thing and will works.
Open it and add the following code
onLoad=window.document.${application}.focus();
onkeydown=window.${application}.focus()
into your body tag
It will works both in IE,FF, Safari

[flexcoders] flex dynamic instantiation of classes or class names
Is it possible to instantiate objects with dynamic names?
So instead of:---
var n:Object = new Object;
Something like:-
for (var i:int=0; i array.length; i++){
var n(i):Object = new Object;
}
I need to create instance of certain type object, but then reference
those objects later by their name. I would like to create them then
store them in a dictionary and reference them later so maybe using the
dictionaries methods to access them would be better?
So do something like so:
for (var i:int=0; i array.length; i++){
var n(i):Object = new Object;
myDict[n(i)] = n(i);
}
then later do this:-
var g1:something = b.link ( myDict[n1], myDict[n2])
TIA!
