If so, you want mx.controls.Button, not mx.core.ButtonAsset. But you can't take a Flex Button and have it work inside a plain old Sprite, which is what a pure ActionScript-based app is. Flex is an application framework, and Flex controls expect to be inside of Flex containers. So you have to start by creating, in MXML, an mx:Application or an s:Application. Once you have that, you can do everything else in AS rather than MXML if you really don't like MXML. But it's a lot easier to just write mx:Button. Issue 2: Again, it looks like your problem is that you're expecting Flex controls to work inside of pure ActionScript apps. Gordon Smith Adobe Flex SDK Team

[flexcoders] RPC Fault when calling remoteObject / cfc

But after 10 minutes or so of using Flex Builder, I often get an error after the browser has loaded the swf-file. If I utdate the browser, it works fine most of the time. This error only happens on my local coldFusion development server (built in). When I deploy the applications, everything works fine all the time.

[flexcoders] Re: Question?? Best method for plotting a Moving Average
How are you receiving your price data to plot? Price feed? Static file? What
you could do is create a function to loop through the array and perform the
moving average calculation and add the result as an extra column in the
array. Are you plotting the full historic price data set? If so, your MA will
begin at the nth bar where n is your MA period setting. eg.. a 20 day MA won't
start until the 20th day into the data set.
If you're using a static dataset, you could do the calculation in Excel and
then save the entire datset as XML and just bring that into flex and plot the
MA from the existing values.

[flexcoders] Re: onMouseOver buttons - how to ? as in Flex Store
The application you linked has view source available. The effect in this example is achieved by using a custom style. Two custom styles actually. The first style is for the overall button bar. You can call it anything you like. You call the style inline with styleName=myCustomStyle which you declare in a css file. In 'myCustomStyle' you then add the property buttonStyleName: mySecondCustomStyle. You can then reference your own actionscript classes for drawing on the buttons with properties 'selectedOverSkin', 'selectedUpSkin', and 'overSkin'. I recommend checking the source for more specifics on how they drew the effects for these buttons. It primarily revolves around drawing a different rectangle graphic depending on which property was passed in 'selectedOverSkin', 'selectedUpSkin', or 'overSkin'. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, tex_learning_flex tex.learning.f...@... wrote: Can anyone point me to an explanation of how to achieve the effect of buttons appearing onMouseOver as in the Flex Store http://examples.adobe.com/flex2/inproduct/sdk/flexstore/flexstore.html app ( http://examples.adobe.com/flex2/inproduct/sdk/flexstore/flexstore.html http://examples.adobe.com/flex2/inproduct/sdk/flexstore/flexstore.html - Products page) many, many thanks in advance, Tex

RE: [flexcoders] transparent overlay with mouseover events passed throught - how to??
Even if visible=false, the component will be layed out. If both canvases have width/height=100% they will overlap Declaration order sets depth Instead of a Canvas, you might need to use UIComponent. Canvas has code that blocks mouse events if you listen for any mouse events on it. UIComponent is lower-level. In Flash there is a difference between a transparent pixel and an area in a Sprite that hasn't been drawn on at all. So, instead of a transparent background, you don't want a background at all, just draw the hit targets.

So the issue I am having is that I am using a TransformTool Senocular's that is. So when a transform tool is in side the framework object it gets scaled as well ending up with a giant transformtool. How can I keep the Transformtool from scaling? Or counter it. Something like transformtool.scaleX = 1 - frameworkObject.scaleX; transformtool.scaleY = 1 - frameworkObject.scaleY; Thanks, J
RE: [flexcoders] RemoveChild not removing instance from memory
The profiler will show you what is still hanging on to those objects.

I've got a VBox into which I'm dynamically adding multiple instances of a custom UIComponent. When I try to remove them, and add new instances, the old instances seem to hang around in memory, as well as the assets contained within - UITextFields, Radio Buttons, etc. I remove all listeners and have no other references to the custom UIComponents. I've tried removeAllChildren() as well as iterating through each child and using removeChildAt(0). The instances just build up in memory as I load new instances. Garbage Collection does not clean them up. Thanks, Brandon
[flexcoders] Re: transparent overlay with mouseover events passed throught - how to??
OK -- got it. Thanks for saving me the time it would have taken to find out that it wouldn't work. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Alex Harui aha...@... wrote: Instead of a Canvas, you might need to use UIComponent. Canvas has code that blocks mouse events if you listen for any mouse events on it. UIComponent is lower-level. In Flash there is a difference between a transparent pixel and an area in a Sprite that hasn't been drawn on at all. So, instead of a transparent background, you don't want a background at all, just draw the hit targets.

My guess is that this BitmapData is internal snapshots of the UI that it might be using for transitions/effects/skins/etc. We skin our application using PNG assets. There are also two Image tags that get updated alternatively with output from a mapping application on the back-end. I'd really appreciate an explanation of what generates the BitmapData, and how to remove it from memory, as our application memory usage grown over time and eventually crashes the browser.

[flexcoders] DateTimeAxis not displaying all values in collection
I'm having an issue when trying to use the DateTimeAxis to map a set of values to a ColumnChart. The dataProvider for my chart includes a months worth data (currently 31 days). I setup my DateTimeAxis with a minimum date for the 1st of the month, and a maximum date for the 31st of the month. I have setup a parseFunction to ensure that all my dates times are zeroed out (i.e. initializing each date with zero prior to assigning the date values). I had to do this to get the chart elements to line up properly. The issue now seems to be with the displayLocalTime property. When I set this property to false, all the chart elements line up nicely (i.e. they align to the tick marks and space out evenly); however, the last date in the data set (the 31st) does not show up in the chart. If I set the property to true, all of the dates show up; however, the alignment of the data points does not match up with the tick marks and looks sloppy. The only hack that I've seemed to get to work thus far is to set the maximum date to be one day past the date that I want to be my actual maximum (in this case that would be the 1st of the next month). Has anyone else run into this? Thanks! -Kyle
Re: [SPAM] [flexcoders] How to call a Actionscript function in a UI child from UI father ?
Also you would want to make all functions public that are to be accessed by
outside objects. I see you marked getFileSize as private.

Don’t use binding braces in actionscript (the event handler declaration
is actionscript)
Try:
click=getFileSize(data.filesize)
That assumes the data object is created and has that property.

wrong ?

[flexcoders] Line spacing (style leading) behaves weirdly for multiline UITextfield
Hi All,
I have to provide the support for the style leading (which is used for line
spacing) for UItextField component. Problem is that the line spacing doesn't
get applied to the last line of a multiline text.
Interestingly, if if it is a single line text then it works fine.
Run the following example to get the idea about the problem I'm facing.
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
creationComplete=onC()
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import mx.core.UITextField;
private var u1:UITextField;
private var u2:UITextField;
override protected function createChildren():void
{
u1 = new UITextField()
u2 = new UITextField()
super.createChildren()
}
private function onC():void
{
u1.border = true;
u1.multiline = true;
u1.wordWrap = true;
u1.width = 50;
u1.text = Mahesh Mahesh Mahesh Mahesh Mahesh Mahesh
u2.border = true;
u2.multiline = true;
u2.wordWrap = true;
u2.width = 50;
u2.text = Mahesh
h1.addChild(u1);
h1.addChild(u2);
setStyle(leading,20)
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:HBox verticalAlign=bottom id=h1/
/mx:Application
I need the line spacing to get applied for all the line of the text including
the last one. Does anyone have any idea about the workaround?
TIA
-Mahesh Kokadwar
