[flexcoders] Re: flash.* packages not found on linux FlexBuilder
Are you using the 3.3 SDK? If so, here's the fix: Under Project Properties > Flex Build Path > Library Path, remove the playerglobal.swc under the framework SDK. Click Add SWC and find the player global SWC for Player *9* in the 3.2 SDK (assuming you've got it somewhere). For example, /frameworks/libs/player/9/playerglobal.swc. Clean the project and you should see everything working again. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Thierry V." wrote: > > Hello !! > > I'm on Ubuntu Intrepid ibex.

[flexcoders] LCDS on CF8 - Where's the wrapper coming from?
If I run an mxml file directly from the address bar, such as http://mysite.com/index.mxml, where does the wrapping html come from? There is no Flex Builder on the machine and there's no SDK folder. I'm thinking the code is embedded in one of the Flex server-side jar files (which would suck). I'd like to be able to customize the html wrapper code for on-the-fly rendering. Any clues? Cheers, Oliver
[flexcoders] Help! Converting PowerPoint to AS3 SWFs
Hoping someone out there has an answer to this tricky one... I need to convert a PowerPoint file to an AS3-compatible SWF file. The SWF will get embedded into a Flex application. It must be AS3 so that Flex sees the embedded SWF as a MovieClip, and I'll have the ability to go to a particular frame of the slideshow using gotoAndStop(framenumber). I know one can embed an AS2 SWF into Flex, but you can't control it without creating a localConnection as well as some additional code in the SWF to accommodate this. Any ideas?

[flexcoders] Changes not detected in index.template.html
I have a project that compiles on the server. I need to add some custom Javascript to the HTML that's generated when I run the mxml file (eg. http://localhost:8700/flex/MyApp.mxml). When I add the code to /html-template/index.template.html file and run the application, I don't see the JS when I view source. I've searched around and haven't heard of this problem before. Any ideas how to get this to work? Thanks, Oliver
[flexcoders] HTML template used for FDS app
Hi all, I know that for a basic Flex Builder project, the folder /html-template contains the wrapper HTML for the generated app. Where does the Flex compiler get the HTML wrapper code when you access the application MXML file directly off the application server? eg. If I invoke http://localhost:8700/MyApp.mxml and view source in the browser, I can see the HTML surrounding the object tag. Where does this HTML come from and is it editable? Cheers, Oliver

... no more than selectedIndex is now;) My final solution to this was to force the tree to always have its branches open (it's small enough that this isn't too ugly).

[flexcoders] Re: Tree: Resetting openItems after dataProvider change
@Tracy & Hank: Thanks very much for the feedback and suggestions. Tracy, I clearly understand that the data drives the behavior of the tree. I do, however, disagree with Adobe's changes to the tree control in Flex 2. Here's why: The concept of a node being opened or closed, has no corollary in the ArrayCollection or XMLListCollection data structures. That is, an ArrayCollection element has no concept of being "open". This is a concept related to the Tree control. So the act of restoring the open/closed state of a tree's nodes should IMHO be a lot easier than jumping through the hoops we've all suggested. If, as I originally suggested, there was a openIndices property, similar in concept to the openItems property which already exists, I'd be able to restore the tree's visual appearance *independent* of the data -- which, in my case of switching languages at runtime is exactly what I need to do. I have achieved a working prototype by adding an attribute to the branch nodes' XML, tracking the open and close events and recursing through the data to restore the opened states after the data has changed; but again, IMHO it should not be this hard;) Thanks again, Oliver --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Tracy Spratt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Yes, Hank's solutionsis what I would do. > > > > Further, when you say "...Flex 2 tree control limits direct access to > nodes...", you make me suspect you are making a conceptual mistake. > With data-driven controls, you never directly access the controls > themselves.

[flexcoders] Tree: Resetting openItems after dataProvider change
I've been wrestling with this for over a week and haven't found a solution to this problem. Hoping someone can help. I have a tree control that, at runtime, changes its dataProvider. In this case, I'm switching languages and the dataProvider format is XMLListCollection. I'd like to restore the open items of the tree after the dataProvider has changed. I tried using the openItems property, but openItems stores a list of XML objects from the original dataProvider. When the provider changes, the XML objects are of course different, and trying to reset the openItems property fails. What I really need is an "openIndices" property that is not tied to the XML data in the provider. The example Adobe gives (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/quickstart/working_with_tree/) is not helpful since they switch between two dataProviders with the same content and they're using an ArrayCollection (I'm using an XMLListCollection). I've tried walking the tree but since the new Flex 2 tree control limits direct access to nodes, I could not find a way to detect the open indexes of the tree directly. Any ideas? Thanks, Oliver
