[flexcoders] BarChart Styling Problem
Hi all, I have a bar chart styling problem which has me struggling. I have a chart generated by a custom component (extending BarChart), and set to 100% high and wide. This works perfectly. I also set the gutterLeft style to 250 pixels wide, which also works perfectly. percentHeight = 100; percentWidth = 100; setStyle(paddingLeft, 10); setStyle(gutterLeft, 250); However, my labels on the vertical axis refuse to use the full 250 pixels, no matter what I do, so I lose about 50 pixels. Padding is set to 0 everywhere. This is what the chart looks like, the grey areas show the full space available to the labels: http://lightfantastic.be/clients/screencap/barchart_screenshot.png I use a TextArea as renderer for the labels: var vAxisRenderer:AxisRenderer = new AxisRenderer(); vAxisRenderer.labelRenderer = new ClassFactory(LabelRenderer); I've tried changing the width of the TextArea (using both MXML and ActionScript) to 100%, to 250 pixels, to 240 pixels, even to 300 pixels, and the size of the grey label area in my chart doesn't change by a single pixel. Is there something I'm missing here? Is gutterLeft sub-divided into smaller areas that I can style? Thanks! Anton.

[flexcoders] Advice from people smarter than me: Data prep for a web service
I am attempting to bring my Flex apps to the U of Michigan but we are running Blue Dragon.NET and not true ColdFusion. I have my CFCs returning queries since this would be a replacement UI for an existing application. The Web Services that are being returned are in .NET and come back in a format I cannot figure out how to use. I tried to transverse the XML but cannot figure out a.) how to got the the information inside the node and b.) how to use it in a DataGrid. Is there a better way to prep the data in the CFC to return something that I can use as an ArrayCollection (how I normally handle RemoteObjects on my own web server, not at work) or something else that I can use in DataGrids. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would really like to start to build Flex and AIR Flash apps here at the U.

Hi!
I'm trying to display images in a Horizontal List. I receive the url's of the
images via a webservice at run time - so can't embed the images. I've tried
something like this:
chartList.addItem({label:myLabel, icon:myImageURL});

The url's are definitely correct - I can paste one into a browser and view the
image.
Any ideas?

You should populate an ArrayCollection or XMLListCollection, and then set that

setting the canDropLabels property of AxisRenderer to false. It appears
that the values were too large so the AxisRenderer was dropping those
labels, and when it tried to calculate the vertical gutters to make room
for the labels, the labels that were dropped were then null, causing a
null object reference error. I hope this helps you as well.

[flexcoders] QTP automation problem of custom component
My project uses a custom Calendar component. The component implements UIComponent directly and contains children. I followed the instructions and wrote a delegate implementation for the component and a matching TEAFlex...xml class definition file. Am using a simple wrapper index.html file. The project was updated with the -include_libraries to pull in the automation swc's and a -includes to pull in my delegate implementation. In QTP using Object Spy it sees the FlexCalendar along with the events and properties I exposed in the class definition file. PROBLEM: QTP can not see any of the child items even though the numAutomationChildren and getAutomationChildAt are implemented. The value of numAutomationChildren on the FlexCalendar instance as reported by Object Spy is correct...but they just show up as BrowserPageWinObject. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? The crazy thing is, I downloaded the RandomWalk sample/example and it behaves for me in exactly the same way...numAutomationChildren indicates the correct number of children but they are not identified correctly by Object Spy. So perhaps I am building it wrong - even though QTP does see the custom component fine. Is there some special significance to the randomWalkClasses src folder or could these files have been included at the same level as the RandomWalk.as class itself? Tried with Flex Builder 3 with SDK3.2 and testing under IE7+QTP9.5 and IE8+QTP10 - same behavior. Note: Same swf works fine with RIATest albeit with runtime approach directly on the swf, i.e. all child components are identifiable.

Re: [flexcoders] Horizontal List - the Images don't appear - help?!
Like most other icon attributes in flex, they're class references, not
string urls (see
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/mx/controls/HorizontalList.html#includeExamplesSummary
)
You have two options:
1: Embed the images and reference their respective variables through binding
(like in the above example)
2: Create your own renderer for use within the HorizontalList, making use of
an mx:Image that has it's source set to the icon property of the objects in
the given dataProvider. and an mx:Label that's bound to the label property.
Some semi-working code: (you'll probabaly want to make it extend UIComponent
and handle measuring, positioning, etc. Look @ TileListItemRenderer for
guidance).

Re: [flexcoders] FileReference.load()
Ah, I see what you're saying now. The answer is you're not going to be able
to do it unless you use 10, because the compiler looks at the compatible
player version and includes version-specific swcs at compile time (Flex
Builder 3 Plug-in\sdks\3.2.0\frameworks\libs\player\9\playerglobal.swc vs
Flex Builder 3
Plug-in\sdks\3.2.0\frameworks\libs\player\10\playerglobal.swc). Therefore
load will never be available no matter what player is playing it if you're
specifiying 9 as the lowest compatible version. These libs don't exist in
the player itself, it's supplied by the swf.

[flexcoders] Re: Testing Flex client and CF backend with QTP...
The problem is that the QTP Flex Plugin does not support a swf embedded using the wmode=transparent / opaque attribute. So the difference wasn't between the index.html / index.cfm...it was that the index.cfm used a wmode=transparent and the index.html tags did not. Adobe bug database: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FLEXENT-682 (refers to http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FLEXENT-289) --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, jones_a_h alun.huw.jo...@... wrote: Trying to cleanup a niggling bug that's gone unresolved for a while. We are using Flex in the client and ColdFusion server on the backend. QTP to test the clients (HTML/Javascript and Flex). This has been fine apart from getting QTP to recognize Flex apps hosted in an index.cfm file...can't get it to work. If we take the same page but instead put it in a file called index.html then QTP works fine. This seems to me like a QTP configuration issue regarding the file extension? since any cf processing would be 'invisible' to the client - including QTP itself? We use swfobject to place and size the embedded Flex component. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
[flexcoders] Swing Layout Manager Equivalent in Flex 3
I have built many GUIs with Swing and two of the Swing Layout Manager Options I found most useful were Flow and Border. I have a design goal where I am creating a component that has a Data Grid under a set of control icons. If the browser window shrinks to the point the control icons can no longer be shown without scrolling I would like them to flow down to the next row and the panel or canvas they are on be doubled in height to accommodate the wrap around row of icons. I tried FlowBox but that only works if i have it double high all the time and that defeats the purpose. I suppose I could run some code in the resize event handler and if the size drops below the width of the icons, I could then double the hieght and if it grows back to wide enough I could halve the hieght. But I am lazy and was hopping there was a Swing Layout Manager equivalent. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Swing-Layout-Manager-Equivalent-in-Flex-3-tp24634003p24634003.html Sent from the FlexCoders mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hi Jones, Make sure, you are using the following setup as described here in comments: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FLEXENT-770 In order to get IE 7 QTP 9.5 combination working you need to do the following 1.Download FlexBuilder 3.0.2 9the trial version is on the adobe website) 2.Uninstall the old QTP-FlexPlugin that you had. 3.Go to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3.0.2\Installers default path and install the new QTP_plugin_installer. 4.Restart your machine and it should work. if you would like automation testing to work at IE7 browser. -- Best regards, Andriy Panas 2009/7/23 jones_a_h alun.huw.jo...@gmail.com: My project uses a custom Calendar component.

In QTP using Object Spy it sees the FlexCalendar along with the events and properties I exposed in the class definition file.

The value of numAutomationChildren on the FlexCalendar instance as reported by Object Spy is correct...but they just show up as BrowserPageWinObject. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? The crazy thing is, I downloaded the RandomWalk sample/example and it behaves for me in exactly the same way...numAutomationChildren indicates the correct number of children but they are not identified correctly by Object Spy.

RE: [flexcoders] Question about a flex component
Why not just allow scrolling instead of paging? Scrolling components can scroll through thousands of items quickly. Suppose there are 100 items and you can only see 10 at a time. So first you see 0-9. When you click the icon you see 10-19. When you click it again you'd see 20-29. So you'd need another icon (previous page instead of next page) to go back to 10-19 and then 0-9.

*Subject:* [flexcoders] FileReference.load()
I was hoping to provide an optional feature that requires reading a
local file if Player 10 is available, without requiring 10 for the
whole
application.
But it appears that I can't compile code that uses
FileReference.load() without setting the target player in FlexBuilder.
Anyone dealt with this situation?

It sounds like a generic error that isn't giving you real detail about what the true problem is.

RE: [flexcoders] FileReference.load()
Interesting! If it's true I think it has to do with there being a difference in
major version number, and that number getting written into the SWF header. It
may well be that Player 10 APIs are made invisible to a SWF whose header says
it is for Player 9. I think this may be how the addition of the z property to
DisplayObject was added without disruption to SWFs that defined their own
subclasses with a z property.
I'm pretty sure that it doesn't apply for minor version changes. For example if
you compile with a playerglobal.swc for 10.0, I'm almost certain that you can
use code like
if (doSomething in obj)
obj[doSomething]();
to look for and call a doSomething() method that has been added for 10.1. But
that's doesn't help you.

Thanks for the explanation. More or less what I expected until Gordon made his
suggestion.
I think I have approval to require 10, but I'd still be interested to know if
Gordon concurs with your conclusion.

Ah, I see what you're saying now. The answer is you're not going to be able to
do it unless you use 10, because the compiler looks at the compatible player
version and includes version-specific swcs at compile time (Flex Builder 3
Plug-in\sdks\3.2.0\frameworks\libs\player\9\playerglobal.swc vs Flex Builder 3
Plug-in\sdks\3.2.0\frameworks\libs\player\10\playerglobal.swc). Therefore
load will never be available no matter what player is playing it if you're
specifiying 9 as the lowest compatible version. These libs don't exist in the
player itself, it's supplied by the swf.

[flexcoders] Re: better option than repeater?
OK, thanks to the below example, I have made some progress on setting up
my first custom itemRenderer. Code can be viewed here:
http://www.ubeek.com/Flex/testrend.mxml
As I mentioned before, my goal is to display a list of Staff. One of
the fields (moduleAccess) in the Staff record is a list of integers
(i.e. 1,3,17,25). I have a table that contains a list of modules
(SEQ, MODULENAME). For each Staff displayed by the List's itemRenderer,
I need to loop through all the modules and output a checkbox...and if
the module's SEQ is in the Staff's moduleAccess list then the box should
be checked.
I tried setting up a remoteObject inside the custom renderer, but no
matter where I put it it gave me a parse error. I guess it doesn't like
mx:RemoteObject inside a component. So I put it outside the component,
but then the script function inside the component didn't seem able to
access the RemoteObject's data. Although it was what I initially tried
to do (with the RO inside the component) I don't really want to do that
as it seems highly inefficient to query the database for every Staff
record. It seems I should be able to execute the RO just once and then
pass the resulting list of modules to the component so I can loop
through it to output all the checkboxes (and for each record check the
SEQ against the Staff's moduleAccess, which I know how to do).
So the question is - how do call the RO just once and pass the result
into the component (as an ArrayCollection or something) so I can loop
over it repeatedly instead of actually calling it and hitting the
database repeatedly?
Thanks,
Paul

There are three tables involved: staff, modules, and queues. The
