Johannes, does slide Slide work well with modules as this project is
modular?

   kind of off topic now.

 i would actually look at slide, even for an existing app (if it uses
 viewstacks and states) for navigation. it makes life much much easier.

 Slide uri's map to paths inside a display tree so the url
 /app/state/stateb/statec tells you that you have set the selected child for
 3 viewstacks (thus making complex nav easier). also these uri's are really
 xpath statements so /app/*/*/state will only filter on the last one. you can
 even use xpath functions to make decisions on your navigation.

 this is a gross simplification, but ping me offline, i have a plugin which
 generates the slide app structure for you.

 back to navigation. i also have a simple plugin which generates my nav
 commands for me (slightly slide specific, but easily modifiable), either
 with mememto or sans, which could help you in this. I use JET to generate
 code a lot at the moment (i need an abstract factory, i need a set of
 commands, i need an enum etc etc) which has kind of removed me from the
 doldrums of implenting paterns to more thinking about the application as a
 whole. of course generation is not a answer to all (i refuse to generate
 actual implementation for long and arguable reasons).

 In short, use Wizard-style navigation for

 (usually, most of) your tasks, use a more fluid navigational
 mechanism, such as Hub-and-Spoke.

At the moment not sure - my test data only has the same 4 items in, but I

 *Subject:* [flexcoders] itemRenderer data question (recycling)



 Hi,

 I have 2 List components on a page.
 The one on the left displays the names of some  bundles - e.g. *Bundle
 1*
 The one on the right displays the items in the selected bundle, plus a
 percentage value - e.g. *item1 - 10%* *item2 - 55%*  *item3 -
 61%*

 The items are the same for all bundles, but their percentages may change as
 the user selects different bundles. If that happens I want to highlight that
 itemRenderer. (eg when the percentage changes, highlight renderer)


 I looked at a similar example from Alex Harui - he compares a DataGrid's
 listData.UID to the previous UID (stored as a property on the renderer). If
 they match, he knows he has the same item and changes that value.

 I have implemented IDropInListItemRenderer (so I have access to the UID)
 but the renderer-recycling of the List means that even when the UID's match,
 the oldPercent value I stored doesn't actually match up to item being
 displayed - in other words, the renderer which previously displayed *item1
 - 10%* may now be displaying *item3 - 61%* , so the percentage HAS
 changed, but that's because it's displaying a different item!

 Is my only option to send both the new% and old% in via the dataprovider,
 or is there another way to get around this issue?

 Cheers

Re: [flexcoders] itemRenderer data question (recycling)

Yes sorry - I was scant with the details because I know people don't read
long posts.

I'm just using a standard array for the dp rather than an ArrayCollection
and I am overwriting the array each time. Eventually I think that each
bundle may have completely different items (they are actually funds - this
is a financial app) , but in my test data I just have 4 funds. It was a
question out of curiosity more than anything else. I was trying to knock
something together quickly as this is just a prototype screen.

at the moment (in the test data) I have the same 4 funds for each
bundle. From the UIDs I get, it looks like the renderers get recycled and
always in the same order - ie the renderer that was last used to display
item4 is then used to display item1 the next time around. If you knew your
List would never scroll, and you had the same four items, I wondered if
there was a way to turn off recycling, or at least get the renderer in
position1 to be in position1 again after a refresh.


n.b. Currently I send in the old percent  new percent, the override set
data and determine the state using those values, so the uissue is solved,
but curious to know if there is a way to get the same renderers being reused
in the same order for a scenario like i described.

On Thu, Jan 22, 2009 at 6:43 PM, Alex Harui aha...@adobe.com wrote:

That didn't quite make sense.  What is the dataprovider for the %
 list?  Why would different bundles have data items with the same UID?  Are
 you resetting the dataProvider when someone selects a different bundle?



 If the dp for the % list is a set of fields computed from the selected
 bundle, don't reset the dp and have those items in the dp dispatch change
 events.  That should keep recycling to a minimum.  If that doesn't work, try
 using a DataGrid with 1 column and headers turned off.  It is possible that
 List has a different recycling algorithm than DG

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Navigational Design Patterns?

2009-01-23 Thread Johannes Nel

we have never had a problem with modules, there are no singletons,
controllers and models cascade through the display tree (with the ability
overwrite these references anywhere down the display tree) and modules are
just new children on the display tree.
it is not a framework in the sense of cairngorm or puremvc which defines the
way you communicate to the server as well.
think of it as a navgitaion system based on best practises and gives you
debug tools.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: itemRenderer data question (recycling)

Nice idea - thanks :)


 Could you use a static Dictionary on the itemRenderer class, with the
 key being the UID?

 That way you can get the old% value regardless of whether you're in
 the same renderer instance?

[flexcoders] Files converted in Mac not recognizable

2009-01-23 Thread Joy

Hi
  I have a Flex-app MP3 uploader, which works fine in Windows-OS. But
when I 'convert' some MP3 files in Mac using some Mac-app-converter,
it says File not supported (custom err msg).
Is it something to do with the file-extension, when converted in
Mac-based-app? M not sure.

How do I overcome this issue? Any suggestions?

My code goes something like this:
common:FileUploader id=musicUploader width=100%
fileUploaderFilter={new Array(new FileFilter('Audio Files(.mp3, .m4a,
.wma, .wav, .aac)', '*.mp3;*.m4a;*.wma;*.wav;*.aac'))}
fileUploadURL=uploadAudio.php fileTypeName=audiofile/

If you want to do some modification to the first modules then you 
have to create different module loader for different modules. You 
cannot manipulate all the modules with the same module loder.

[flexcoders] Help - Wierd Problem when putting Flex app into webpage

2009-01-23 Thread brucewhealton

Hello all,
  I've run into a rather strange situation with a website where I
am placing some flex applications, the swf files.  I've done this
before without any problems.  I've taken a Flex output, the
application and opened in Dreamweaver and then selected TemplateApply
Template, and the template used for the consistent look of the site is
applied without any problems.  
  However, with this new site I am working on, I move the
bin-release into a subfolder on the site.  Then I open the page in
Dreamweaver and select TemplateApply Template.  When I do that, the
site, which has every other page appear centered in the browser, now
is showing the page in the browser moved over to the left.  I've
scoured through the code and found nothing in the code for the Flex
application, the swf file that would over-ride the template that is
telling it to center the webpage in the browser.  I put the swf file,
and the code that goes with it into the mainContent editable area.
 I've not seen this happen ever before, where adding a file that
has flex on the page, (well, actually it is the output swf file and
the javascript that is added to the page) would force the page to
change it's centered position.  I've tried putting CSS code into that
page itself that would force it to center the content in the browser
window, like every other page on the site, but that did no good.
  The Flex application is set to Vertical and it does center the
content within the flex application.
 Here's the file location:
http://futurewave.biz/sandbox/ContactUs/ContactForm.html
 Could someone look at the code to see if you see what might do
this? View source would work.  Or suggest what I might want to check
to figure out why this is happening.  I have run into the same problem
when placing an entirely different application into the template for
this site.  This other example is
http://futurewave.biz/sandbox/AboutBMWhealton/
The pages should be centered like here: http://futurewave.biz/sandbox/

request are requested by the url: https://www.oursite.com/files/.  

When I look at it in firebug, all requests are sent over https.

Anyone know why this might be happening?

/files/ is a symbolic link to http://files.gladhandle.com, which is
not secure.  However, in HTML, the popup is gone when we go to the
symbolic link, it is still there in the flash.

Re: [flexcoders] Pop-up Window issue

Any suggestions on how to stay out of this hole. I am using a button with a

I’ve seen something like this where the events in the pipeline get sent to the 
underlying app and result in dispatching an event that opens the dialog. For 
example, if you used ENTER to close the window, if someone leans on the ENTER 
key too long it repeats and the second ENTER goes to the app that activates the 
button that opened the dialog. You can also get in this hole if you use 
KEY_DOWN and KEY_UP

Subject: [flexcoders] Pop-up Window issue 







Not sure what is going on.. maybe someone can help .. 

Here is the set up: 

Main app with a manage button. The button opens a pop up TitleWindow where a 
user can add, update or delete schedules. Once a schedule has been added, 
updated or deleted, the hanged is pushed to the database and the window should 
close. I am passing variables in from the parent app. 

The Issue: The first schedule I delete works fine, the database gets updated 
and the window closes. Now if I try to open it again and delete another 
schedule, the window opens, the delete function works but the window does not 
close. While debugging, I see the correct varaibles passed in on window open, 
the delete function processes and then the variables revert to the orginal and 
the window never closes. I watch the code process the commands of close window 
but it never closes. The! thing that puzzles me most is the variables 
reverting... 

Anyone seen this or have an idea on how to resolve?

 Hi
 
 I have customized Tree Control using TreeItemRenderer. I want to 
show 
 disclosureClosedIcon and disclosureOpenIcon after the label. By 
 default these icons are displayed before the label. In the 
 updateDisplayList method of TreeItemRenderer i have the code below. 
 Using this code disclosureClosedIcon and disclosureOpenIcon are 
 displayed after label.
 
 override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number, 
 unscaledHeight:Number):void{
   super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
   if (disclosureIcon)

 disclosureIcon.x = (label.x+label.textWidth+20);
   } 
 }
 
 
 
 Now the problem i am facing is that when i put the mouse over the 
 tree control then the portion where the deafult icons were is also 
 selected( shows blue ). I do not want to have that portion blue. I 
 just want label,disclosureClosedIcon and disclosureOpenIcon to be 
 highlighted blue. 

You can draw something opaque there, but the problem would be in 
figuring out what color to make it.  Personally, I'd add a 
backgroundColor style property to the renderer and then use a CSS 
style declaration to set it if it's not the same as the component's 
background.  That backgroundColor will drive the color of your opaque 
shape.  If you have code like this:

http://flexdiary.blogspot.com/2008/06/using-css-typeselector-with.html

Then when you use a CSS typeSelector, you'll get the color from that--
otherwise, you'll get the color from the parent Tree.

Your other choice is to extend Tree to change how it draws the 
rollovers.  I'm not sure how practical that is, given that the tree 
would have to look into your renderers and see how they're laid out.

 Hello all,
   I've run into a rather strange situation with a website where I
 am placing some flex applications, the swf files.  I've done this
 before without any problems.  I've taken a Flex output, the
 application and opened in Dreamweaver and then selected TemplateApply
 Template, and the template used for the consistent look of the site is
 applied without any problems.  
   However, with this new site I am working on, I move the
 bin-release into a subfolder on the site.  Then I open the page in
 Dreamweaver and select TemplateApply Template.  When I do that, the
 site, which has every other page appear centered in the browser, now
 is showing the page in the browser moved over to the left.  I've
 scoured through the code and found nothing in the code for the Flex
 application, the swf file that would over-ride the template that is
 telling it to center the webpage in the browser.  I put the swf file,
 and the code that goes with it into the mainContent editable area.
  I've not seen this happen ever before, where adding a file that
 has flex on the page, (well, actually it is the output swf file and
 the javascript that is added to the page) would force the page to
 change it's centered position.  I've tried putting CSS code into that
 page itself that would force it to center the content in the browser
 window, like every other page on the site, but that did no good.
   The Flex application is set to Vertical and it does center the
 content within the flex application.
  Here's the file location:

  Could someone look at the code to see if you see what might do
 this? View source would work.  Or suggest what I might want to check
 to figure out why this is happening.  I have run into the same problem
 when placing an entirely different application into the template for
 this site.  This other example is

Re: [flexcoders] Files converted in Mac not recognizable

2009-01-23 Thread Howard Fore

I'm confused where the error is occurring, several questions:

- Is the Mac-app-converter giving you an error or is your FileUploader
class giving it?
- What is the FileUploader class in your code below, what's it doing?
- What application are you using to convert the files on the Mac and what is
the format it is converting from/to?

If the error is simply something about the file extension, you can just
change that on the Mac-processed file to test it. On the other hand if your
code is properly receiving the file but the internal format of it is
different that expected (which why I asked about the tool you're using for
conversion and the from/to formats) changing the extension should have no
effect.

[flexcoders] Structuring a medium sized application

2009-01-23 Thread Sceneshift


Hey guys,

I'm creating a fairly sizable, modular application which is great, I really
love modules. One problem I am having is how to go about structuring my
projects, right down to the folder structure.

Can anyone share their insight into how they structure their applications,
whats the norm and what to avoid? 

I'm staying away from Cairngorm, because I feel it's a little overkill for
an application like this.

Thanks!

[flexcoders] Re: Extending the DataGrid so it supports an editable row

--- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, João joao.sale...@... wrote:

 Hi,
 
 it seems that currently a DataGrid only supports one itemEditor
 simultaneously, applied to one cell. We are currently in need to 
have
 one item editor for each cell in one line.
 
 In our application it makes complete sense that the DataGrid rows 
have
 the state being edited, so when clicked/rollover, every cell on 
that
 row turns into a specific Flex control (combo, datefield, etc). 
 This means that we need to extend the DataGrid and implement this 
feature.
 Apparently, it seems that the DataGrid is composed of an array of
 DataGridColumns, so it's not aware of rows - which complicates 
things.
 I am a bit stuck with this... can someone point me a direction?

I would think that if you just had an isBeingEdited property on your 
Value Objects, that would update the data property of all the 
renderers that are accessing that row's information (i.e. the entire 
row).

[flexcoders] ArrayCollection COLLECTION_CHANGE event doesn't fire right away?

2009-01-23 Thread Keith Hughitt

Hi all,

I'm trying to detect changes in an ArrayCollection which is bound to a
DataGrid with some editable components. For some reason, however, the
event only seems to fire when the focus is change. For example, I
check a check-box, and nothing happens. When I then click somewhere
outside of the checkbox, the event is fired. Furthermore, If I check
the box twice before changing focus, nothing at all happens.

Is is possible that the event is only fired when the DataCollection is
refreshed, and that the refresh is not occurring until the focus changes?

Here is an example of what I'm doing (colors is the id for the
DataGrid associated with the colors ArrayC:

import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
import mx.events.CollectionEvent;
import mx.controls.Alert;

[Bindable]
private var colors:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
{color:Red, display: true},
{color:Blue, display: true},
{color:Green, display: true}
]);

// Watch for changes to DataGrid CheckBox's
private function init():void {
colors.addEventListener(
CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE, onChange
);
}

public function onChange(evt:Event):void {
Alert.show(Datagrid altered!);
}

Any ideas? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks!

Re: [flexcoders] very odd error

2009-01-23 Thread Maciek Sakrejda

This can also happen when you link against a certain class, but the
version of that class supplied at runtime has changed. E.g.,

1. you build module foo.swf against application bar.swf with
load-externs
2. your module uses class Baz from bar.swf
3. you rebuild bar.swf, changing Baz slightly
4. without rebuilding foo.swf, you run bar.swf (which loads foo.swf)

When foo.swf attempts to use Baz, you'll get that error, because Baz
does not look like what bar.swf thinks it looks like.

(Disclaimer: I'm not sure if this exact sequence replicates this issue--
I'm extrapolating from my Java experience here--but I've run into this
in Flex previously under similar circumstances)

DG editing is session and row-based by default.  Data isn't written back to the

For click-based cells like checkbox, I usually add a change handler that sets

right away?


Hi all,

I'm trying to detect changes in an ArrayCollection which is bound to a
DataGrid with some editable components. For some reason, however, the
event only seems to fire when the focus is change. For example, I
check a check-box, and nothing happens. When I then click somewhere
outside of the checkbox, the event is fired. Furthermore, If I check
the box twice before changing focus, nothing at all happens.

Is is possible that the event is only fired when the DataCollection is
refreshed, and that the refresh is not occurring until the focus changes?

Here is an example of what I'm doing (colors is the id for the
DataGrid associated with the colors ArrayC:

import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
import mx.events.CollectionEvent;
import mx.controls.Alert;

[Bindable]
private var colors:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
{color:Red, display: true},
{color:Blue, display: true},
{color:Green, display: true}
]);

// Watch for changes to DataGrid CheckBox's
private function init():void {
colors.addEventListener(
CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE, onChange
);
}

public function onChange(evt:Event):void {
Alert.show(Datagrid altered!);
}

Any ideas? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

[flexcoders] Flex Builder debugger problems

2009-01-23 Thread Curtis Barrett

I'm running into an odd problem with the Flex Builder debugger.  About
4/5ths of the times that I click the debug button I get a nice, white IE
page.  It has the loading icon down at the bottom and aside from that,
nothing.  When I click stop in flex builder the page goes away and when I
click disconnect then the page finishes loading my flex app.  It is starting
to get particularly frustrating when I have to stop it and relaunch it 5-9
times before I get a working window.  Once it comes up all is fine and
dandy.

Has anyone had anything similar happen?  I am on a trial version of flex
builder and I have reinstalled it to see if it would help at all.


Thanks in advanced,
Curtis Barrett

This can also happen when you link against a certain class, but the
version of that class supplied at runtime has changed. E.g.,

1. you build module foo.swf against application bar.swf with
load-externs
2. your module uses class Baz from bar.swf
3. you rebuild bar.swf, changing Baz slightly
4. without rebuilding foo.swf, you run bar.swf (which loads foo.swf)

When foo.swf attempts to use Baz, you'll get that error, because Baz
does not look like what bar.swf thinks it looks like.

(Disclaimer: I'm not sure if this exact sequence replicates this issue--
I'm extrapolating from my Java experience here--but I've run into this
in Flex previously under similar circumstances)

If there aren't going to me more than a few dozen funds you can use repeater

Yes sorry - I was scant with the details because I know people don't read long 
posts.

I'm just using a standard array for the dp rather than an ArrayCollection and I 
am overwriting the array each time. Eventually I think that each bundle may 
have completely different items (they are actually funds - this is a financial 
app) , but in my test data I just have 4 funds. It was a question out of 
curiosity more than anything else. I was trying to knock something together 
quickly as this is just a prototype screen.

at the moment (in the test data) I have the same 4 funds for each bundle. 
From the UIDs I get, it looks like the renderers get recycled and always in the 
same order - ie the renderer that was last used to display item4 is then used 
to display item1 the next time around. If you knew your List would never 
scroll, and you had the same four items, I wondered if there was a way to turn 
off recycling, or at least get the renderer in position1 to be in position1 
again after a refresh.

n.b. Currently I send in the old percent  new percent, the override set data 
and determine the state using those values, so the uissue is solved, but 
curious to know if there is a way to get the same renderers being reused in the 
same order for a scenario like i described.

Hi,

I have 2 List components on a page.
The one on the left displays the names of some  bundles - e.g. Bundle 1
The one on the right displays the items in the selected bundle, plus a 
percentage value - e.g. item1 - 10% item2 - 55%  item3 - 61%

The items are the same for all bundles, but their percentages may change as the 
user selects different bundles. If that happens I want to highlight that 
itemRenderer. (eg when the percentage changes, highlight renderer)

I looked at a similar example from Alex Harui - he compares a DataGrid's 
listData.UID to the previous UID (stored as a property on the renderer). If 
they match, he knows he has the same item and changes that value.

I have implemented IDropInListItemRenderer (so I have access to the UID) but 
the renderer-recycling of the List means that even when the UID's match, the 
oldPercent value I stored doesn't actually match up to item being displayed - 
in other words, the renderer which previously displayed item1 - 10% may now 
be displaying item3 - 61% , so the percentage HAS changed, but that's because 
it's displaying a different item!

Is my only option to send both the new% and old% in via the dataprovider, or is 
there another way to get around this issue?

I had the same problem with a component I developed and the only solution I

On rollOut I set it to false then only if both flags are false I remove the

[flexcoders] Guidance Needed about the organization of flex project and MXML Componenets

2009-01-23 Thread anuj181

Hi Flex Coders,
I have been taken over one project started by some other programmer,
The project asks user to login and after user logs in , different custom
MXML Components are loaded. Thats the bigger picture what the project
needs to do.
  The way this project was organized that the developer created the login
component , and other custom MXML Component and put them in different
canvases and then put login in one ViewStack and the other MXML
Componenets in another stack, By default on the load of the application,
ViewStack with login Canvas is set to true and if user enter right
password then the visibility of other stack having different custom
components are set to true and login was set to false.
The ToggleButtonBar was used whose data provider is second view stack
having 3 other custom MXML component, and depending upon the button of
the toggle bar selected the components are being loaded. All the
viewstacks with the canvases are being loaded on the main app on the
load of the application.

  I am  not sure thats the right way. In ideal world I like whenever user
loads the page, only the login page will be loaded and once the correct
credentials are entered, only the default MXML Component will be added
with the ToggleButtonBar's default selection, I have to reorganize the
structure of the project, I was thinking of adding and removing child
depending upon the tab changed, Is there any better way to organize this
project, Ideally I like to refresh the page while loading different MXML
components on the tab selection so that we might get the component
totally in synchronization with the server, Anyone has nice and better
way of organizing Project without setting the visibility true and false
and also fulfilling my requirement.
Any Help and guidance will be appreciated
Thanks

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the suggestion. I was already trying to set the value using
the click-handler, but even using change, I still am not having any luck:

change=cbSelected = displayCheckBox.selected;

(The data-binding is somewhat indirect: the checkbox sits inside a
HBox, which I've given a cbSelected property that is then set as the
columns editorDataField field, similar to the last example from the
Returning data from an item editor section:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=celleditor_1.html
in the Flex 3 Help pages.)

Am I setting the change handler properly?

Thanks,
Keith

RE: [flexcoders] Re: ArrayCollection COLLECTION_CHANGE event doesn't fire right away?

Click should be just as good, but usually the code looks like:

Click=data.someProperty = displayCheckBox.selected because data is the 
arraycollection item you are editing.  If the data objects are not [bindable], 
then you further have to call arrayCollection.itemUpdated() to force a 
collection change event.

change=cbSelected = displayCheckBox.selected;

(The data-binding is somewhat indirect: the checkbox sits inside a
HBox, which I've given a cbSelected property that is then set as the
columns editorDataField field, similar to the last example from the
Returning data from an item editor section:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=celleditor_1.html
in the Flex 3 Help pages.)

Am I setting the change handler properly?

Thanks,

[flexcoders] Having trouble with qtp automation

2009-01-23 Thread whatabrain

My app contains a subclassed AdvancedDataGrid, with a few custom 
itemRenderers and headerRenderers. When I look at it using qtp, I can 
see the AdvancedDataGrid, but I can't reach into individual cells. The 
only object qtp detects there is Flash itself -- it doesn't even see 
the ADG. Between cells, it detects the ADG.

If I put a standard ADG into the same app, I don't have any problems. 
qtp can detect the contents of every cell.

Any idea of the kinds of things I should be looking for?

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder debugger problems

2009-01-23 Thread John McCormack

If the SWF takes a long time to build you will see that.
I sometimes got that when it couldn't find the debugger, but not recently.
It's sometimes slow waiting for something to be loaded/decoded, or  even 
when waiting at a breakpoint.
Because the two programs don't run independently IE may show no content 
when interrupted by Flash/Flex.

 and when I click disconnect then the page finishes loading my flex

 stop it and relaunch it 5-9 times before I get a working window.  Once

Re: [flexcoders] Pop-up Window issue

2009-01-23 Thread Eric Dunn

I set break points on the method that launches the pop up. The break point 
never hits. 

I delete a schedule, pop up closes. I then try to delete another schedule and 
the schedule is deleted, I see the confirmation result (alert) and the window 
does not close and the breakpoint never stops the code. 
I am seeing that if I select another schedule, the deletion function is still 
active... meaning, that once I select another schedule, it is automatically 
deleted. Looks like I am not cleaning up, leaving event listeners active...

Have a drink, then set break points on the method that pops up the dialog to

I’ve seen something like this where the events in the pipeline get sent to the 
underlying app and result in dispatching an event that opens the dialog. For 
example, if you used ENTER to close the window, if someone leans on the ENTER 
key too long it repeats and the second ENTER goes to the app that activates the 
button that opened the dialog. You can also get in this hole if you use 
KEY_DOWN and KEY_UP

Not sure what is going on.. maybe someone can help .. 

Here is the set up: 

Main app with a manage button. The button opens a pop up TitleWindow where a 
user can add, update or delete schedules. Once a schedule has been added, 
updated or deleted, the hanged is pushed to the database and the window should 
close. I am passing variables in from the parent app. 

The Issue: The first schedule I delete works fine, the database gets updated 
and the window closes. Now if I try to open it again and delete another 
schedule, the window opens, the delete function works but the window does not 
close. While debugging, I see the correct varaibles passed in on window open, 
the delete function processes and then the variables revert to the orginal and 
the window never closes. I watch the code process the commands of close window 
but it never closes. The! thing that puzzles me most is the variables 
reverting... 

Anyone seen this or have an idea on how to resolve?

2009-01-23 Thread Keith Hughitt

I was able to get it working  in one case using itemUpdated. I had to
change the ArrayCollection to public, and then set the handler:

[Bindable]
public var colors:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
 {color:Red, display: true},
 {color:Blue, display: true},
 {color:Green, display: true}
]);

  private function init():void {

 mx:Component
 mx:CheckBox label={data.color} selected=true
click=data.display = selected; outerDocument.colors.itemUpdated(data);
/
 /mx:Component
 /mx:itemRenderer
/mx:DataGridColumn


I still cannot get it working in the more complex case where I have a
more complex component item renderer:


 mx:DataGrid id=colorDG dataProvider={colors} editable=true
 mx:columns
 mx:DataGridColumn headerText=Color dataField=display
rendererIsEditor=true editorDataField=cbSelected
 mx:itemRenderer

 /mx:columns

When I click the checkbox in the above example, the COLLECTION_CHANGE
event is fired three times: the 1st and 3rd time with the prior (wrong)
value and the middle time with the updated (correct) value. When I use
data.selected = displayCheckBox.selected the event is fired anywhere
between once and three times and the wrong values end up being stored in
ArrayCollection.

Editable renderers should implement IFocusManagerComponent.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder debugger problems

2009-01-23 Thread Mark Carter


I also experience this though it only happens about 5% of the time for me.
I'm debugging my Flex app running in the standalone Flash Player 10.

* Usually, my flex app takes a couple of seconds to launch once the
workspace has finished building.

* About 20% of the time, the flash player window comes up and the app then
takes about 10 seconds to actually start.

* But about 5% of the time, the flash player window comes up and then the
app never actually starts (waiting at least a couple of minutes). If I then
disconnect the debugger, the app then immediately starts as normal.

Its like the debugger is blocking something.

So no need to quit Flex Builder. Just disconnect the debugger.

I take it back. When I code it right, that does work.  

 

But it results in the popup being hidden when I roll off the day, even
though I am still over the popup.

 

Great idea though, thanks!

That was a good idea, and I tried it, but it seems that even with
mouseEnabled=false' on the pop-up, rolling over it registers a rollOut
on the dayComponent, which starts the loop.  I am looking into the
rollOver property alex mentioned.
