[flexcoders] RESOLVED: VerifyError: Error #1053
The issue was resolved by uninstalling and reinstalling Flex Builder.
Before resorting to this, I tried the following (without success,
obviously):
1. Cleaned the workspace (multiple times)
2. Closed and restarted Flex Builder (multiple times)
3. Closed and reopened the project
4. Deleted and recreated the project
5. Uninstalled and reinstalled the Flash players
6. Shut down and restarted my laptop

RE: [flexcoders] How to learn Caringorm
First - go ahead and read all six parts of Steven Webster's article. It is written at a high enough level that there's not much version-dependent information in it, and it's a very good introduction. Next - there's a neat tutorial that walks you through the steps of designing a Cairngorm app. It helps you to start thinking in Cairngorm: http://www.digimmersion.com/support/Flex%20UI%20Design%20For%20Cairngorm.pdf Third - I think you're on the right track to dig in to the examples. The Cairngorm Store is very helpful. Finally - start building something! It's the best way to learn.

IN LONG: I want to learn Caringorm. I only make flex apps internally for my company. My problem is that everyone loves flex; I would call it scope creep but it's more like scope run. The bigger the apps get, the more visible they are and the more people want them. I am sold on the Caringorm method of separating things out and making it very modular. I am excited about learning it and I think it will make my more productive. Now my problem is the learning curve. I have visited caringormdocs.org. The first thing on the list is the six-part article from adobe consulting. I've read the first part and it raises my concerns when it talks about the upcoming release of flex 2 and it references Caringorm .99 (it's on 2.1 now!). I have 0 experience with Flex before version 2 and I'm afraid that learning an older version of the framework might hinder my development. The other two learning tools that they list are the Caringorm Diagram and the Caringorm Diagram Explorer. Now in theory I understand what is going on. In practice these diagrams don't help me implement the Caringorm framework. I feel they are geared more towards people who already have a good foundation. My third option is the examples. This is my next plan of attack, I'm going to go after the basic example and try to duplicate it in a project that I'm working on. So community; what do you guys think is the best way to learn Caringorm?

[flexcoders] Re: basic architecture question
Hi Jason,
This syntax looks correct...
currentState = targetComp.dataProvider[event.index].data;
... as long as targetComp.dataProvider[event.index].data gives the
name of the state that you want. I noticed that you output this to a
text field, so I assume that it's correct. So it's the usual
check-for-empty-spaces-and-stuff-like-that.
Another method is to use a TabNavigator in place of a Tab Bar, and use
custom components for the individual tabs. Something like this:
mx:TabNavigator
jx:CustomComponent1 label=First Tab /
jx:CustomComponent2 label=Second Tab /
jx:CustomComponent3 label=Third Tab /
/mx:TabNavigator
Or you could re-use the same component with different data for each tab:
mx:TabNavigator
jx:CustomComponent1 label=First Tab
dataObject={myArrayCollection.getItemAt(0)} /
jx:CustomComponent1 label=Second Tab
dataObject={myArrayCollection.getItemAt(1)} /
jx:CustomComponent1 label=Third Tab
dataObject={myArrayCollection.getItemAt(2)} /
/mx:TabNavigator
Either way, a nice thing about using the TabNavigator approach is that
the Flash player doesn't load the contents of a tab into memory until
the user clicks on the tab. This helps the app load faster, and saves
client resources generally. I'm not sure if this also applies to states.

Michael, I see the error. I created a project using your code, and when I compiled it, I got the same error. It's being thrown in ListBase.scrollVertically() at line 5346: numCols = listItems[i].length; According to the comments, protected var listItems is: * An Array of Arrays that contains * the itemRenderer instances that render each data provider item. * This is a two-dimensional row major array * (array of rows that are arrays of columns). Since the error indicates that A term is undefined and has no properties it seems that the function continues to loop after all of the itemRenderer instances have been evaluated, resulting in a null pointer exception. The loop is defined as follows: for (i = lockedRowCount; i rowCount; i++) So the loop continues for the length of rowCount, which is defined as follows: var rowCount:int = rowInfo.length; From all of this, it appears that rowInfo.length listItems.length, which evidently should not happen.

[flexcoders] Maximum Precision of a Slider? (Flex 2)
Anyone know what the maximum precision of a Slider component is? I'm building an app where the users need to manipulate values that are very small. For example, the range of possible values for one variable is 0.89 - 0.000100. When I set the Slider.minimum = 0.89 and the Slider.maximum = 0.000100, the Slider appears to interpret both values as zeroes. So the thumb sits at the left end of the slider, no matter what Slider.value is. And when you drag the thumb to the right, it snaps back to the left as soon as you release the mouse button. Does anyone have a way of overcoming this limitation? (Am I missing something obvious in the docs?)

[flexcoders] Re: basic flex architecture questions
Jason,
I think you're on the right track with your custom component idea. I
think the best way to handle the dynamic data is with data binding.
Let's take the image as an example. In the ActionScript of your custom
component, you declare a bindable public variable to hold the source
of your image:
[Bindable]
public var myImageSource:Class;
Also in your custom component, you place your image tag where you want
it, using binding syntax for your source attribute:
mx:Image source={myImageSource} /
In your main MXML file, you set the value of the public variable to
the graphic asset that you want. For example, in the ActionScript of
the main file you might have something like this:
[Embed(source=assets/JoeSmith.png,mimeType=image/png)]
[Bindable]
public var myImageSource:Class;
Then, if you use MXML to load your custom component, you would write
something like this:
myCustomComponent myImageSource={myImageSource} /
There are lots of variations on this theme (for example, you could do
it with all ActionScript and no MXML, etc.) but this is the basic idea.
Data binding rocks.
HTH

that shows people of the business unit as individual cards - like
baseball cards. Each card will have elements like a photo of the person,
a description of skillsets, and buttons to expand and change to a
different state. Making that is easy with a custom component, but I'm
having some struggle with the dynamic data part as it relates to the
custom component - in other words, making the components generic and
then settings the data for them later in my application.
I thought I would make a generic person card with a placeholder for
the photo and data - that would be a single component, and then in
another main application MXML I would repeat that component over and
over based on some XML data. Easy enough so far - the XML data isn't the
problem. In Flex, I'm not sure how to add the image dynamically, or
change the value of the image file reference for each component repeated
- I can add an image tag easily enough in the component, but having a
hard time not hard-coding the image reference. So I guess I have a few
questions:
1. What's the best way to set up a generic image container for the
image file be in the person card component and how would I set that in
the main application MXML repeat region? Or is making the person card
as a component not a good approach? Should I just describe the person
card within the repeat region and not make it a custom component?
2. How do i set other variables in the custom components like label
values?
3. Overall, what would be a good way to architect a site like this? I
know how to create and change states, but unsure what should be a
component and what should just described right in the main MXML.

Here is more detail: 1) I extended the Tile container to use it as an item renderer inside a DataGrid 2) I overrode the set data() function of the Tile in order to add the correct number of children to the Tile based on the data (my thanks to a member of the Flex team at Adobe for this tip). 3) While adding the children, the size of the children is set based on the number of children. 4) I wrote code to dynamically resize the children based on user input. This obviously requires that the Tile be resized in order to display the children properly. But when the Tile is resized, the set data() function is called for every item renderer in the DataGrid, which in turn causes the children to be reset to their default size because of #2 above. If you're interested, you can access sample code at the URI referenced in the original message below. If anyone can shed some light on this, I would really appreciate it! -Jim --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Jim Robson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: How do you dynamically resize the children in a Tile container?

[flexcoders] Re: Drag and drop between multiple nested TileLists - how to detect drag and dro
Rachel: If I understand your dilemma correctly, the following ideas may help. 1) Declare a variable to represent the container that you'll need to reference during the drag drop action, e.g.: private var _myParentContainer:TileList; 2) In your item renderer's creationComplete event handler, assign the value of the container to the variable, e.g.: _myParentContainer = this.parent.parent.parent.parent as TileList; (Use trace statements to help you determine how many .parent's you need; Flex inserts some intermediary objects that are not readily apparent.) 3) In the drag drop code, use the variable to reference the target container as needed: _myParentContainer.doSomethingCool(); 4) After the drag drop is complete, update the value of the variable to the item renderer's new container: _myParentContainer = this.parent.parent.parent.parent as TileList; It's hard to be more specific without seeing the actual code, but perhaps this will be enough to get you past the current obstacle.

Tracy, Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't think that it addresses the question. I'm not calling set data() when the objects are resized; the Flex framework calls it internally.

[flexcoders] Exposing Flex FDS to Flash; LocalConnection Performance Issues
We have a Flex 2 app that uses FDS, and it's working pretty well. What we want to do is make our engine available to business partners, so that they can develop their own UIs for our it. Ideally, they should be able to develop their UIs using Flash (we don't want to require them to use Flex). As a first step, I divided our working Flex app into 2 parts: Part 1) The UI elements (controls, charts, etc.) Part 2) The FDS code (RemoteObjects, etc.) These 2 parts talk to each other using LocalConnection objects. Everything works fine, except that performance takes a huge hit - to the point of being unacceptable. So I have two questions: 1. Is there a better way of accomplishing our goal than using LocalConnection objects? 2. Is it normal for LocalConnection objects to inflict a substantial performance penalty? -Jim -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!

[flexcoders] Re: FDS and componentized development: Bug?
Hi Pete, The channel endpoint defined in services-config.xml already had a fully-qualified URI. So, following your advice, I dug through the documentation to find out how to create a ChannelSet in ActionScript and assign it to my RemoteObject. This worked (thank you!), but it's very disturbing, for a number of reasons... 1) Why is it necessary to specify an endpoint in ActionScript *only if* the FDS code resides in a separate class file? (Remember, the app worked fine without the AS endpoint when the FDS code was in the main application MXML file.) 2) Why should it ever be necessary to define an endpoint in ActionScript when the endpoint has already been defined in the XML configuration file? This is redundant, it invites errors, and introduces code-maintenance headaches. 3) If this is how Flex is designed to work, and it's not a bug, why isn't this made obvious in the documentation? It should be in large, bold letters somewhere: IF YOU WANT TO DEFINE YOUR REMOTE OBJECTS IN AN ACTIONSCRIPT CLASS FILE, YOU MUST SPECIFY THE CHANNEL ENDPOINTS. 4) The main attraction of FDS are their simplicity. They are supposed to be easy to learn and use, and save a lot of time and effort. When I have to spend hours tracking down a silly problem like this, my boss gets disgusted, and I don't blame him.

[flexcoders] Re: FDS and componentized development: Bug?
Hi Pete, I appreciate your patience. I compile the app using Flex Builder. I have the services path parameter set in the Project Properties dialog, along with the context root parameter. I started with a clean build - in fact,it was an entirely new Flex Project. I re-start the app server (Tomcat) after every change to the config files. I discovered something interesting. The original ActionScript class extended Sprite. I changed this to Canvas, and now it works without setting the endpoint in ActionScript. So I now have what I originally wanted, except that I needed to extend Canvas to get it. Any idea why this might be the case? Did I miss something in the docs about this? Do you have any advice as to what might be the lightest-weight ActionScript class that I could extend that would have the desired functionality? The class I'm building has no visible presence at all. Here is what it needs to do: Create, invoke methods on, and subscribe to messages from RemoteObjects; Manipulate the data returned from the RemoteObjects; Dispatch events. Thanks again for the help.

It is not necessary. 3.) See 2. 4.) I understand, let's discuss. How did you compile your MXML app - are you using Flex Builder 2 or the command line compiler? In either of these situations you need to tell the compiler to include a services-config.xml file in the generated SWF. This can be achieved through a compiler argument called services in flex-config.xml or specified on the command line using the mxmlc argument: --services=c:/path/to/your/web-app/WEB-INF/flex/services-config.xml If you're using Flex Builder 2 I know I have better success if I force a clean and rebuild when I change the configuration file or command line settings. Alternatively, if you're relying on FDS's webtier compiler (i.e. you browse to a .mxml file and a servlet that ships with FDS compiles your mxml to SWF) this should already be looking for /WEB-INF/flex/services-config.xml by default. Finally, note that when you do change /WEB-INF/flex/services-config.xml you need to restart the web application for FDS to see the changes - although this is not related to your issue at compilation time.

It seems like initializing mx.messaging.config.LoaderConfig.url would
have essentially the same drawback as setting the endpoint in
ActionScript - it would create a situation where I would need to
maintain the URL in ActionScript. Or am I misunderstanding you?
In any case, I think it's OK to use Canvas as the base class, because
it doesn't seem to add excessive weight to the app. But I am very much
open to better ideas!

*lightbulb illuminates* I know what the problem is now. If your channel
endpoint has relative tokens in them, such as {server.name} and
{server.port}, then these need to be resolved at runtime based on the
URL used to load the SWF. The way that the channel gets this information
is through the mx.messaging.config.LoaderConfig.url property, which is
initialized when the main mx.managers.SystemManager starts up (as it is
the one that has access to the root DisplayObject.loaderInfo).
So, if you do need to use Sprite, then you could either avoid the
relative tokens in your XML config for the channel or we'll need to get
you to initialize the mx.messaging.config.Loader config.

RE: [flexcoders] High Level: Actionscript Components vs. Importing Actionscript Classes
Evan:
Good question! I think that the primary difference between
a component and a class is how you use it. You import a class using the
ActionScript import statement and then access the properties and methods of that
class in your ActionScript code, whereas a component is declared using an MXML
tag.
Here's some stuff on building custom
components:
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/1/flex20beta3/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Partsfile=Part3_CreateComps.html
You may have already noticed that the documentation on
writing an ActionScript class actually links back to the section on building
components, which helps to make your point, that there isn't much difference
between a component and a class:
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/1/flex20beta3/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Partsfile=0418.html
There are some classes (such as SimpleButton)that are
accessible via ActionScript but not MXML tags. Apart from that, I don't think
there is any difference between components and classes.If my understanding
is lacking, I trust that others on the list will make necessary corrections.

[flexcoders] titleBar in TitleWindow (Panel) class
When subclassing the TitleWindow class, shouldn't it be possible to add a
child to the titleBar UIComponent? Within the Panel class definition,
children are added to the titleBar using the addChild method. However, when
I attempt to do so in a subclass, the child does not display. Does anyone
know why this is? Am I missing something (code below)?
package com.eyestreet.widgets {
import mx.containers.TitleWindow;
import mx.controls.Image;
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
public class TitleWindowResizeable extends TitleWindow {
[Embed(source=button-resize.png, mimeType=image/png)]
private var clsButton:Class;
private var imgButton:Image;
private var dspButton:DisplayObject;
public function TitleWindowResizeable(){
super();
imgButton = new Image();
imgButton.source = clsButton;
}
override protected function createChildren():void {
super.createChildren();
//This does not display:
dspButton = titleBar.addChild(imgButton);
/* The following would display, but the image
* gets trimmed by the panel's frame:
* dspButton = titleBar.addChild(imgButton);
*/
}
override protected function layoutChrome(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):void {
super.layoutChrome(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
dspButton.x = unscaledWidth-30;
dspButton.y = unscaledHeight-30;
}
}
}

[flexcoders] F2B3: Add Image to panel border?
Im trying extend the TitleWindow class: the goal is
to add a small graphic to the lower right corner to be used as a resize
button. This is something that should display outside of the windows
contents. But no matter what Ive tried, the button gets obscured by
whatever code the Container class uses to limit the size of its children. Ive
pasted the current version of my code below. Anyone see what Im doing
wrong?
package {
import mx.containers.TitleWindow;
import mx.controls.Image;
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
public class TitleWindowResizeable extends TitleWindow {
[Embed(source=button-resize.png,
mimeType=image/png)]
private var clsButton:Class;
private var imgButton:Image;
private var dspButton:DisplayObject;
private var indButton:int;
public function TitleWindowResizeable(){
super();
imgButton = new Image();
imgButton.source = clsButton;
}
override protected function createChildren():void {
super.createChildren();
indButton = rawChildren.numChildren - 1;
dspButton = rawChildren.addChildAt(imgButton,indButton);
dspButton.x = 400; //this.width - 14;
dspButton.y = 450; //this.height - 14;
}

show/hide panel borders (F2b3)
Hi Jim -
Thanks for your answer and sample. My problem was in changing the
borderStyle to none - that's what was messing up the panel layout.
But then I ran into a different problem - demonstrated in your example
as well - which is that changing the thickness of the border shrinks the
contents of the panel and causes everything to move inward. What I
wanted was a simple selection indicator that leaves everything inside
the panel as is. What I ended up doing was surrounding the panel with a
vbox that has all paddings set to zero and the same corner radius as the
panel, and it's this border color that I'm changing. This leaves
everything alone inside the panel.
It does bring up yet another problem, though, which I'll address in a
separate posting.

Tom,
Instead of removing the border, which seems to confuse
the
player, could you just toggle the border's color? When
you
want the border to disappear, change its color to the
same
color as the panel's background. Then change the color
back when you want the border to be visible.
Will that work?

its

Is there some way to just turn the border on and off
while still

Re: [flexcoders] show/hide panel borders (F2b3)
Tom, Instead of removing the border, which seems to confuse the player, could you just toggle the border's color?

rounded corners. Perhaps I misunderstood the nature of
your question?

You may
want to try the updateComplete() event:
mx:DataGrid updateComplete=doStuff() dataProvider={dp}/
this should get called after the DataGrid has updated itself due to
internal commitProperties(), measure(), or updateDisplayList() calls.

If you put handCursor on a Box where you text resides, it does not work
either.

Subject: [flexcoders] F2B3:
useHandCursor property of Text control
Per the docs, the useHandCursor property is inherited from the Sprite
class. However, it doesn't seem to work on the Text control. When set to
true, the mouse cursor remains an arrow instead of changing to a
button when over the text field:
mx:Text id=txtItem text=The quick brown fox jumps
over the lazy dog. buttonMode=true
selectable=false useHandCursor=true /
What am I missing?

[flexcoders] Is Adobe a reasonable business partner?
Ive been developing in Flash and CF for years, so I have some experience dealing with Macromedia, but Ive never had to deal with Adobe until now. So far, my impression is that the Adobe developers are great (although most of the ones Im aware of probably worked for Macromedia). However, I am not having good experiences with the customer service or sales personnel. Has anyone on the list had experience dealing with Adobe as a business partner? Flex is a very cool product, but I dont think its good to tolerate an unresponsive or arrogant vendor.

[flexcoders] Remove selected items from an ArrayCollection / DataGrid?
I am trying to give users the ability to remove selected
items from a DataGrid. The idea is that the user selects the items to remove,
then clicks the Remove Selected button. The problem is that if
the user selects more than one item, then not all of the selected items will be

(although it occasionally only removes 1). If the user selects 4 items, it
usually removes 3, and so forth.

[flexcoders] selectedIndices are Strings???
I dont understand why DataGrid.selectedIndices
returns an array of Strings. I thought that indices were generally integers. (For
example, Array.indexOf returns an int.)
Can anyone explain why the selected index of a DataGrid is a
String?
When dgTest is a DataGrid instance, the
following code generates a compiler error:
var arr:Array = dgTest.selectedIndices;
for(var i:int in arr){
// do something
}
The error that the compiler returns is as follows:
Implicit coercion of a value of type String to an
unrelated type int.

The other issue Ive encountered is

try this. (as a starting point)

{
var array1:Array = new Array();
for(var j:int;j dgTest.selectedIndices.length; j++)

SOLVED - [flexcoders] Remove selected items from an ArrayCollection / DataGrid?
OK, below is the solution that I came up
with. If anyone sees a simpler / better way, please let me know.
Adobe engineers: I am guessing that
removing items from a data grid is a common operation, in which case it seems
like there should be a very simple and straightforward way of doing so. What am
I missing?
private function sortOnInt(strA:String,
strB:String):int {
var a:int = int(strA);
var b:int = int(strB);
var r:int = 0;
if(a b) {
r = -1;
} else if(a b) {
r = 1;
} else if(a == b) {
r = 0;
}
return r;
}
private function removeSelected(): void {
var arr:Array = dgTest.selectedIndices;
arr.sort(sortOnInt);
for(var i:int = 0; i arr.length;
i++){
acTest.removeItemAt(arr[i]);
}
}

would like to bind this data directly to various List-based controls
(As I understand it, List controls like Arrays/ArrayCollections).
What is the best way to massage the incoming XML data so that it can
be binded directly to List controls.
Any insight is greatly Appreciated.
Cheers,
Tim

RE: [flexcoders] selectedIndices are Strings???
Thanks Tom,
I believe array indices are ints, not
strings. However, I also believe that datagrid indices are strings, because
when I used the Array.sort() function on the DataGrid.selectedIndices array,
the order was all messed up. For example, 10 came before 2.
For that reason, I ended up writing a custom sort function to get around the
issue.
Thanks again!

Try either of these two options:
for( var i:int; i
arr.length; i++ )
{
trace( arr[i] );
}
//or
for each( var i:int in
arr )
{
trace( i );
}
The for...in loop that you're using is for iterating over the properties of
objects, which it expects to evaluate as strings. So, in your for...in
loop, the var i refers to the indices of the array, not the values you're
looking for which are the selectedIndices of your dg. The for...each loop
above is new to AS3 and is the simplest way to do what you want.

RE: [flexcoders] selectedIndices are Strings???
You know, I looked at that page in the
docs this morning, but I guess my eyes just skipped right past that part.
It seems decidedly counterintuitive, but I
should be used to that by now; Ive been developing Flash apps for 6
years!
Thank you for the help. Now I can go back

From the docs on Array.sort():
All elements, whatever the data type, are sorted as if they were strings,
so 100 precedes 99, because 1 is a lower string value than
9.
But you can easily change the default sort behavior by doing this:
arr.sort(Array.NUMERIC);

Subject: RE: [flexcoders]
selectedIndices are Strings???
Dont forget that the Array.sort() method sorts using string
values by default, so even when sorting an array of numbers or ints, they will
be sorted as if they were strings. To get numeric sorting, so that
10 comes after 2, use the Array.NUMERIC sort
option, e.g.:
myArray.sort(Array.NUMERIC);
Heres the relevant example from the ActionScript
documentation for Array.sort():
The following code
creates the Array object numbers with
elements [3,5,100,34,10]. A call to sort()
without any parameters sorts alphabetically, producing the undesired result [10,100,3,34,5].
To properly sort numeric values, you must pass the constant NUMERIC
to the sort() method, which sorts numbers
as follows: [3,5,10,34,100].
Note:
The default behavior of the sort()
function is to handle each entity as a string. The Array.NUMERIC
argument does not actually convert other data types to the Number data type; it
simply allows the sort algorithm to recognize numbers.
var
numbers:Array = new Array(3,5,100,34,10);
trace(numbers);
// 3,5,100,34,10
numbers.sort();
trace(numbers);
// 10,100,3,34,5
numbers.sort(Array.NUMERIC);
trace(numbers);
// 3,5,10,34,100

[flexcoders] Bug in Runtime Style Declarations
When setting the fill colors
for a component class at runtime, Flex breaks.
It's possible to set the
fill colors for an instance, but not for a class.
Take a look at the code
below. The first function, setInstanceStyle, works fine. The second function,
setClassStyle, causes the MenuBar to disappear and the buttons to stop working.
It's possible to change
other styles using the same method as is used in setClassStyle. For example, I
can change background color, border color, and text styles using the same
methodology as is used in setClassStyle. But when I try to set fillColors using
that method, the component disappears and the program hangs.
As far as I can tell, this
is a bug. I haven't found any other mention of it, though.
Does anyone have any more
info on this? Am I missing something?

That was a Flex 1.5 example. I'm not sure if the
mx:Model tag is
supported the same way in Flex 2.0, so that may be part of the
problem.
You should be able to use an array as the dataprovider for your
repeater, just to get things going until you are able to read
external XML.

SOLVED - RE: [flexcoders] Re: Accordian from XML: Repeater Woes
I finally figured out what was wrong.
With MenuBar components, the external XML file has a root node root
and it is ignored in the MXML code. However, for Repeater components, this does
not work: on the contrary, it is necessary to specify the root node in the MXML
code. So, the following slightly modified version of Dougs code works
perfectly (notice the change to the value of the dataProvider attribute):
?xml
version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application

width=100% height=100%

You'll see the animations I mean. And if you click on the FusionCharts Presentation Suite, you'll see what my boss REALLY went wild for. They use Flash to put a bit of Powerpoint-ish pizazz into the charts. Not really my thing as I'm more of a usability guy, but it does impress the suits. I managed to get the label rotation working. The help for labelRotation under mx.charts.AxisRenderer should have a big bold reference to the embedding thing. I went there first and only figured out the problem when I finally went to the Rotating axis elements example page. I think it's a good way to do it, but you have to admit that it's a bit of a learning curve compared to just setting a label rotation property and having it always work. I hear what you're saying about time. I wish Adobe would put some more people on Flex to just write examples and such. One good example is worth a whole page of documentation. Of course, that can get problematic when you're still redesigning some of it as you go along. :D --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com, Ely Greenfield [EMAIL PROTECTED]. wrote: I hear you Jason, but there's only so many hours in the day. 3d bar/pie charts, Yeah, that's something we don't support. animations for when the chart loads Can you Describe what you're looking for? rotating axis labels Flex charts support those, if you use embedded fonts. Maybe it would help if you had a lot of samples where you implemented a lot of these features so people could just reuse your code instead of rewriting the renderers. Indeed it would.

[flexcoders] Finding coordinates from pop-up window
Hello all,
I have a feeling that Im missing
something obvious, but how do you determine the x and y coordinates - relative
to the root application - of an object that resides within a component that is
used as a pop-up window?
The code below works perfectly if it
resides in the root application: the list appears just to the right of the buttons.
But when the same code is in a component that serves as a pop-up window, the
list appears away up and to the left; i.e., the Flash player is taking the x
and y coordinates of the button relative to the pop-up window, but using x and
y coordinates relative to the root app to display the list.
What am I missing?

RE: [flexcoders] flex2 Beta3 - slow to non existent document delivery

Please forgive me if I'm bothering the group, but this is incredibly frustrating. I'm wondering if the folks at Adobe/Macromedia are up to speed on this document delivery issue? Whenever I try to access any of the Flex2 beta documentation I run into problems. Say for example I'd like to peruse the flex2_gettingstarted_pdf docs. I click on the appropriate link from within the release notes section at the labs site and it takes forever to load. When the document finally doescome back I get a few pages, that's it. When I try to scroll to a new page it takes literally 3 minutes to perform a page down if it occurs at all. Often the document just hangs. If I try to print the document, the process also hangs, w/o fail. I've tried printing perhaps 10 times over the last week at various times to no avail. The LiveDocs are no better. Thus the whole learning exercise becomes moot. While I have a 3mb broadband connection, I'm in the East near Toronto, and I fear, I'm doomed since I'm not at all proximal to your pops on the West coast. Im about ready to bail on the beta, its just too time consuming to tough it out. Any insight would be appreciated.

RE: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
OK, heres 2 more cents. My employer has a staff of very good Java developers who have been building leading-edge Web apps for years. Why did they hire yours truly a humble Flash developer? Because they could not get the UI results they wanted with any other tool. Dont get me wrong they had built some very cool interfaces using Ajax and other tools. However, even these did not have all of the slick effects that they wanted, nor did they work as smoothly or reliably as could be desired. Moreover, the developers were sick of having to deal with differing browser implementations. They saw apps built by other shops that had the quality of UIs that they wanted and all of these apps had Flash front ends. And when a Java shop decides to go with Flash UIs, Flex is the obvious choice. As a final note, my employer builds applications for the worlds largest customer. And this customer already has a significant investment in other Adobe / Macromedia technologies, such as ColdFusion. So it seems to me that Flex is here to stay. IMHO, once the new 2.0 builder gets into production, there will be no holding it down. Lots of other developers will love it as much as we do, and it will take off. Having said all of that, of course, it wont hurt for Adobe to launch a major marketing and PR campaign. J Best, Jim From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of jwc_wensan Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2006 11:47 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex To all: Got this email today, http://ajax.sys-con.com/ and it got me to thinking. I may get blasted for this, but here goes . . . just my .0199 cents. Let me first say I believe 100% that the Flex platform is a better mousetrap. I am currently developing applications with Flex. I prefer Flex. However, you can not open a software magazine, newsletter, journal, article, etc. that doesn't reference something about AJAX. It's everywhere. Adobe's Flex gets an honorable mention. I have been in the software business for over 27 years. I have seen many companies come and go that had a better mousetrap. I also realize that most end users do not care if a desktop app is developed with Visual C++ or Visual Basic. So why would they care what a RIA app is developed with. Probably not. In the end it is the application not the engine. There seems to be a parallel between PCs with Windows and Apple/Macs. Many believe that the Mac is better, but Apple/Mac has less the 5% of the market. Can Adobe accept 5% market share? You also can not under estimate the impact when Microsoft releases Atlas. And no Robert I don't want to hear about how you hate MS or the evil empire. Fact is, tens of thousands of developers will and I say will use their product. What this also does is make it more difficult for developers to convince management that the Flex product is better. Especially when all they hear is AJAX this and AJAX that. AJAX is getting all the hype. Right or wrong these are the facts. They have essentially taken over the RIA landscape and claimed it as their own. My point . . . . Adobe you need to step up to the plate. If you think you can wait, then by the time you start you will be too far behind. You will be left behind always playing catch-up. If you want to reach that 1 million developer goal, it needs to start now. To be better and say you are better is not enough. If the industry has already declared AJAX as the RIA industry leader then it becomes too late. >From a market perception, look how AJAX has evolved in the last year. Compare that to Adobe Flex. Adobe you are asking developers to make a commitment to you, well I think you need to increase your commitment to us. Now is the time to promote to the industry and the general public as a whole about the value of Flex. Again, just my opinion.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Strange thing happening with Flex 2 Beta 3 (eclipse plugin) - possible bug?
I missed your original post, but this does look like a bug. The player doesnt seem to know what to do with the empty String tag. When I place anything in that first String tag (in addition to or instead of the empty space) the problem goes away.

RE: [flexcoders] Meaning of xmlns=*?
Heidi, Someone who is more knowledgeable may be able to correct me, but I think that is just a placeholder sort of a reminder to define your own namespaces. Perhaps someone will clarify this for both of us.

Hello, I'm relatively new to Flex, and I'm editing some code in an existing project where these xmlns=* declarations are scattered about in our components in addition to our own namespace declarations. To the best of my knowledge, all our our custom components are qualified with their namespace names in the mxml files. Being so, is this declaration necessary, and what exactly does it mean? The global namespace?

[flexcoders] Image or mouse event changes from Beta 2 - Beta 3?
Hello all,
The following code worked in Beta 2:
mx:Image id=laptop1
source={laptopImage} mouseMove=dragMe(event, laptop1, 'img',
laptopImage);myoffset(laptop1); x=400 y=80/
The function dragMe() was taken from a
drag-and-drop example in the documentation. It worked perfectly in Beta 2, and
life was good. Now that Ive upgraded to Beta 3, however, I cant
get any mouse event to work with these mx:Image tags. I have tried using
different mouse events (mouseDown, click) to invoke different functions,
including a simple function that does nothing but change the text in a text
box. Nothing seems to work. The functions never get called. No exception is
thrown. The Flash player (9 Beta 3) just seems to ignore the whole thing. Its
enough to make me feel unloved.
Did anything change with either the Image tag or mouse
events between Beta 2 and Beta 3? Could it be the fact that the images are
embedded SWFs? Has anyone experienced anything similar? Or am I just missing
something obvious?
Ive searched the Adobe labs wiki but cant find
a reference to a change that appears to be relevant to this issue.
Jim

[flexcoders] RE: Image or mouse event changes from Beta 2 - Beta 3?
I sort of found the cause, but the
solution is not satisfactory.
I tried swapping a PNG for the SWF, and
the code worked. So I decided to see if I could make the SWF work. The original
file consisted of a button with nice rollover and down effects (i.e. a typical
Flash button). I removed the mouse effects and changed the instance symbol
behavior to MovieClip, and compiled it. The new SWF works with the Flex code
listed below. However, Ive lost my nice mouse effects. L
Adobe Flex Development Team: Is this a
bug? I hope so, and that youll get a chance to fix it. It would be a
shame if we cant use interactive Flash assets in our Flex applications!
(In fact, one of the reasons that my company shied away from OpenLaszlo is that
imported / embedded SWFs are not interactive.)
