[flexcoders] open source TreeGrid, disclosure triangle
Anyone work with the open source treegrid component from sourceforge? (Not the flexlib version) If so, how can I change the disclosure icon from the + and - sign to a triangle?

[flexcoders] Re: accessing nested objects... what am I missing?!?!
So things are half-working. I say half-working because they work but they give me an error when I compile. switching a viewstack in the nested mxml app is done like this in my code: viewstack in main file is called mainscreens inside that viewstack are two fr tags so it looks like this: mx:ViewStack id=mainScreens fr:appOne id=appOne / fr:appTwo id=appTwo / /mx:ViewStack If I try and change a viewstack that's in appOne, called 'myView', I do this (based on advice earlier in this thread): click = mainScreens.myView.selectedChild = screen2; If try to run this app I get an error that says: 1119:Access of possibly undefined property myView through a reference with static type mx.containers:ViewStack BUT IT WORKS! If I ignore the error and run the app, the code works. But I get the error every time I compile and I think it's messing up other things below it in the program. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Adnan Doric [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It is better to dispatch events from your nested component and handle them in your parent component. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, ryanharlin ryanharlin@ wrote: Thanks for the help.

[flexcoders] navigation via mx:Tree
I'd like to have an mx:Tree that acts as a navigation menu; where
clicking an item in the Tree switches a viewStack to the corresponding
page.
I have an xml file with nodes that look like this:
section name=Folder 1 sectName=Folder 1 catID=1
subsection name=Item 1 subName=itemOne /
subsection name=Item 2 subName=itemTwo /
/section
When rendered in a tree it creates a folder called Folder 1 with two
sub-items called Item 1 and Item 2, respectively.
I have a function that's triggered onChange for the tree that looks
like this:
public function treeChanged(event:Event):void {
selectedNode=Tree(event.target).selectedItem;
var myDestination:String = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
trace ([EMAIL PROTECTED]);
}
That runs fine. Clicking on a item in the Tree traces itemOne or
itemTwo in the console.
Now... I then have a viewStack with children named itemOne and
itemTwo.
And I want to have the tree change read the newly selected item in the
tree and go to the corresponding viewStack child.
So I added this to the function:
public function treeChanged(event:Event):void {
selectedNode=Tree(event.target).selectedItem;
var myDestination:String = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
myViewstack.selectedChild = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
}
unfortunately, this doesn't work. does anyone see how to do this better?

[flexcoders] Re: Flex Data Services painfully slow?
Yeah, I've got 2 gigs in the MacBook and 1 gig given to Windows. The database is an access MDB file right now. The difference in speed when testing from the internal ip address here on the home network vs. from outside via the external ip address is such a dramatic difference that I can't chalk it up to the computer because the computer behaves fine on the internal IP address. As an example, loading a datagrid that hits the mdb file with four records in the database takes a few seconds on when going to 192.168...:8700 but when going to 216.45...:8700 it takes nearly 3 minutes. That can't be the computer. It's got to be a network issue. I'm just not good enough to know what that issue would be. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, boy_trike [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My setup is pretty basic.

[flexcoders] compilation error?
I'm trying to set up and run the CRM coldfusion example from the adobe dev website. Everything seems to go well and I can run the .cfm files to access the datasource in a traditional coldfusion setting. But when i try to run the .mxml file (the last step of the tutorial) I get the following error: 1 Exception found. Exception flex.messaging.config.ConfigurationException Configuration error encountered on line 9, column 52: 'Open quote is expected for attribute class.' What would this mean and how would I fix it? I'm new to coldfusion and flex. I love flex and the mxml language but I'm finding the documentation on Flex Data Services to be a little lacking in detail. I can't wait for the first flex books to come out. Thanks to all for any help! Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Something is new at Yahoo! Groups.
