Re: [flexcoders] Datagrid not updating when dataProvider is changed.
I did some more tests and debuging, and it turns out the dataprovider of the DG does get updated. But, for some reason - the labelFunction still gets the stale data...

[flexcoders] Select Picture from DataBase
Hi, All I am stopped writing code because I have no idea how to select Picture from Database and reflect to FLEX. (I dont even know how to store picture into mySQL) Please help me out!
Re: [flexcoders] Select Picture from DataBase
You can store the image URL in DB (as opposed to the image itself - very inefficient). The image URL to be stored in DB should be RELATIVE to the deployed swf file (i.e. assets/image.jpg assuming the dir that contains the swf also has an 'assets' dir and in it the 'image.jpg' file. Once you do that, it's easy to get the image URL and set the Flex image source to point to it.

[flexcoders] Datagrid with timer - what is the best solution?
Hi, I'm really new at flex programming, and I'm trying to implement this custom datagrid component: Column 1 and 2 would display datas based on a arraycollection Column 3 would display a countdown timer, counting from the value of column 1 to 0 When the timer reach 0, the line should be erased from the datagrid (and the arraycollection) What would be the best way to implement that? what do you think about custom datagrid with itemrenderer for the timer column? Could you please just tell me in a few words how the way you would implement such component? Many thanks for your help, Vincy
[flexcoders] background images...
Hi All,
I've run into a fairly frustrating problem and my general ignorance of
UI stuff is keeping me from making progress.
Here's the issue:
I have an image in a swf that I want to use as the background image
for a floating canvas. If I add it to the canvas as a
backgroundImage, then it shows up but at the wrong size (it has scale9
stuff built into the swf, but that seems to do nothing). I need two
things.
1. I need the background image to scale to the appropriate size of the
window.
2. Portions of the background image have alpha set to 0, so they are
invisible. I have a system in place that makes the canvas draggable
within some bounds. I would like it if I could make it ignore any
interactions with the canvas in areas where the alpha is set to zero.
Can this be done with a mask or through some other means and if so, how?
Since I was having so much trouble with adding the image as the
backgroundImage property/ or as a child in the mxml, I resorted to
creating a manager that would call an function init() on the window
when all was good to go. The following code was in the init method,
and did succeed in resizing the canvas but not to the correct
proportions/ also the x y positions of the image are way off from
the 0, 0 coordinate of the parent container. here's a little of the code:
public override function init():void{
super.init();
if(skinImageSrc != null){
skinImage = new Image();
skinImage.source = skinImageSrc;
skinImage.autoLoad = true;
skinImage.scaleContent = true;
this.addChildAt(skinImage, 0);
skinImage.height = this.height;
skinImage.width = this.width;
}
}
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx,
Sam
[flexcoders] DataGrid and XMLListCollection - newbie question
Hi. I am trying to get a very simple datagrid up and going. I need to
be able to populate this from an XMLListCollection. This seems very
simple, but I am obviously missing the point somewhere in this. It
seems that all of the books and online searchs show web services, etc.
as source.
I need to be able to start at a simpler point. I have tried setting
things up both in ActionScript and mxml. The ActionScript is commented
out at this point. Either way would be fine. The best would be able to
see it work in both ways.
The purpose of this snippet is:
1. Initialize the grid with a single row. When the app starts, I have
an empty grid. I need to start with a default row in the grid.
2. Allow the user to click the Add Step button to add a new row to the
bottom of the grid.
3. Allow the user to click the Clear Steps button to remove all
existing rows and then add the default row.
4. Later in the development of this, I will extract the bound data
from the grid to create a payment schedule.
Here is the code.
Thanks!
Pete

[flexcoders] WEB-INF/flex folder must contain either flex-config.xml or services-config.xml
Greetings all, I'm trying to create a new Flex project that connects to ColdFusion via AMF. In the 2nd screen of the new project wizard, when I uncheck use default location for coldfusion server, I enter this: C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war I'm running CF8 multi-instance in this case. Underneath that directory is indeed a WEB-INF/flex directory with the flex-config.xml and services-config.xml, among other files. However, when I hit validate, I get Invalid root. The WEB-INF/flex folder must contain either flex-config.xml or services-config.xml. I'm stumped. I've tried it on two computers with the same result. Now, if I create a flex project without specifying a server technology, then add the path to the services-config.xml file in the compiler options, AMF remoting between Flex and CF does work fine. Mainly, I'm just curious why flexbuilder isn't cooperating in this case or, if in fact I'm doing something wrong. Thanks a lot. Marc

[flexcoders] Getting TabNavigator to Release Focus
I'm running into a issue with the tabnavigator. Basically, I am building an AIR app that saves the user's history into a SQLite table. One of the items that is getting saved is the tab the user was last on. The problem is that when I return the user to that tab it refuses to release focus. Since this tab contains a text area, pressing space while typing in the text area switches tabs. Now if I manually navigate to this tab, it works fine -- no switching on space when typing. It is only when the tab is automatically selected upon launch that this happens. Has anyone seen this before? Thanks, Shawn
Re: [flexcoders] Re: Embedding HTML page into Flex using Adobe AIR
Hi Siva, If you know the link you are trying to download you can just parse the straight html text, get the link, then submit a URLRequest for it. If the user is browsing to arbitrary pages and clicking arbitrary things, you can do a hack solution by parsing every page he lands on then when you detect a mouseclick (not sure if this is possible within the HTMLRenderer, but if it's not you can render an invisible Sprite over it and detect mouseClick), then presenting a little dialog with all the possible a href's that you parsed out for the user to select... Also, If it's a straight a href tag and not some server side script that's serving up the file, I think the HTMLRenderer's location property changes to the file URL (blah.zip) when user clicks, so when you detect non-web extensions in the HTMLRenderer just initiate a URLRequest for it... hope that helps, Lushen On 12/23/2008 11:04 PM, shiv_indian wrote: Hi Alex, This is one of requirement from our customer.

you can check for overlapping circles (naively) with hitTest for each circle to all the otherones. whenever there's overlap, call var rect:Rectangle = getRect() for both objects. if one of them has a lower X and lower Y AND its rect.right and rect.bottom are greater than the other one, hide the other one...

Subject: [flexcoders] unload module but flexmodulefactory remains ?
hm i have this sample app where it simples loads/unloads a simple module..
when
executing in profiler the instance of the module a gets removed
without a problem.. but the instance of _a_mx_core_flexmodu lefacto ry only
goes up..
when first start the app the instance of _a_mx_core_flexmodu lefacto ry
is 1.. if i remove the module.. the instance of a goes to 0 but the
flexmodulefactory instance doesnt.. if i keep on adding and removing
the module the flexmodulefactory instance never goes down... in a
larger app this will be a problem..
anyone knows whats wrong here ?

[flexcoders] MySql timestamp column type and Flex DateField
How do I tie a DateField control to a Value Object with a Timestamp column in the database. I am getting java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Timestamp format must be -mm-dd hh:mm:ss.f at java.sql.Timestamp.valueOf(Unknown Source) at com.corent.odicx.goms.dao.OrdersVO.setEvent_Date(OrdersVO.java:93) the DateField format string only modifies the display. the selectedDate output doesn't seem to have any methods that take a format string to format for Timestamp. I suppose I could just pull the year month and day out of the selected date and format my own string but that seems like a waste and I am basically lazy. anybody have a cool way to handle this?

[flexcoders] DataGrid - create dynamic columns
Is it possible to completely skip datagrid column design and generate all columns as dynamic using dataProvider assigning mechanism? So, this XML sample: root row col11/col1 col22/col2 col33/col3 /row row col14/col1 col25/col2 col36/col3 /row root Will create: --- col1|col2|col3| --- 1 |2 |3 | 4 |5 |6 | --- Or I have to create columns at run-time parsing some data and then assign dataProvider with actual data? Later is what I do now, but I was wondering what others do with showing dataGrids that have dynamic structure. Thanks

[flexcoders] Make Enter work as Tab in Flex DataGrid
Hello! I'm trying to make Enter work the same as Tab in a DataGrid - commit changes to the edited cell and move focus to the next one to the right, then next row, etc. I've tried to use something like: focusManager.getNextFocusManagerComponent(true).setFocus(); or focusManager.moveFocus(FocusRequestDirection.FORWARD); but I cannot seem to make it work in a DataGrid... Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you! Sergey
