Re: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes
That tree is just working very well, thanks again Yves. Romu Yves Riel wrote: I have done something similar lately except for the spring loaded opening mechanism. The problem that I saw with Alex Harui's approach was that you had to turn a leaf into a branch before being able to drop a node on it. That impacts the icons that represent the nodes and I still wanted a leaf node to be represented with a leaf icon up to the point where it contains children. If all your nodes (leaf or branch) have the same icon, then you could make all the nodes branches through a custom ITreeDataDescriptor. You'll have to live with having the small arrow to the left on every node. What I finally did was to overload some tree methods. If the drag drop is over the bottom half portion of a node, I highlight it and rewrite the parent and rowIndex properties of the _dropData property. That works well. You could extend the logic to open up the folder after the drop and add a spring loaded opening mechanism. I'm attaching some code but I had to clean it up to remove proprietary information. Not sure if it still compiles but that's a starting point :-) Hope it helps!

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes
You're welcome Romu. It's not the first time people are looking for a better tree component. Maybe it would be worth while to create a new tree component in FlexLib. We could start with the basic functionality that I added. Yves http://geo.yahoo.com/serv?s=97359714/grpId=12286167/grpspId=1705007207/ msgId=138704/stime=1236765221/nc1=1/nc2=2/nc3=3
Re: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes
Ok.. I'm going to confess.. Being a total newbie...
I'm not sure if I am implementing this AS file correctly.
I added the file to a folder under my project root and then imported it as
such
import TreeEx.TreeEx;
Now, since it's imported and overriding several protected methods, it should
just apply that to my already included mx:tree component, correct? Do I
need to do anything to the tree? include or not include certain attributes.
Here is my Tree
mx:Tree
id=myTree x=13 y=36 height=546 width=615 borderStyle=inset
dragEnabled=true dropEnabled=true
dragDrop=handleDragDrop(event);
dragMoveEnabled=true
click=showMenu(event);
labelField=@Title iconFunction=loadIconClass
showRoot=true
dataProvider={treeData.page}/
Thank you for your help on this guys. I'm really trying to learn it, but I
only get to work on it occasionally at work...

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes
You need to declare the extended component:
TreeEx id=myTree .
You may have component namespace issues. If the component is in the same
folder as the app source, you can use the local xmlns=* If it is in a
different folder, you need to specify that in the xmlns declaration,
xmlns:mycomps=components.*, then do: mycomps:TreeEx id=myTree .

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes
I have done something similar lately except for the spring loaded opening mechanism. The problem that I saw with Alex Harui's approach was that you had to turn a leaf into a branch before being able to drop a node on it. That impacts the icons that represent the nodes and I still wanted a leaf node to be represented with a leaf icon up to the point where it contains children. If all your nodes (leaf or branch) have the same icon, then you could make all the nodes branches through a custom ITreeDataDescriptor. You'll have to live with having the small arrow to the left on every node. What I finally did was to overload some tree methods.

[flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes
Hey All, I am trying to build a Flex based tree for our content management system here at work. It needs to represent all of the pages on a given site. I already have a good working prototype using XML as the dataprovider and i have a good chunk of the drag and drop functions working well. The problem I am having is around the dragdrop handler. I need to be able to move any page to anywhere on the tree, including below (as a child of) any other page in addition to being able to reorder pages on the same level (same parent node) I can get it to do one or the other but not both at the same time. As far as I can tell, Flex doesn't recognize the difference between a drop on a node and a drop between two nodes. As I think this would solve my problem. Has anyone tackled this problem before? I basically need a simple way for my very non-technical users to drag pages for one of two operations, re-ordering within a section or moving a page to another section. This ExtJS example is almost exactly what I want my Flex tree to do http://www.extjs.com/deploy/dev/examples/tree/reorder.html Except I need to treat every item on the tree as a folder. =] -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, Phoenix Cold Fusion User Group, AZCFUG.org
Re: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes
I just implemented the same thing. What I did was have data in the XML elements that differentiated what kind of node they were (topic and article in my case) and that told me the parent topic of the selected node (using parent topic id of 0 for a top level topic). This way you can compare data between the dragSource's dragItems and the item that exists in the tree at the calculatedDropIndex. Through this comparison you'll know if you're dropping onto a branch or leaf node and can handle it appropriately. -- Howard Fore, howard.f...@hofo.com The universe tends toward maximum irony.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes
You could consider using a combination of a key input and being over a certain node as to how you interact with it. ie: if the CTRL key is down, then treat the node as a folder and drop the page you are dragging as a child, otherwise drop the page you are dragging as a sibling.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 3 Tree - Moving Nodes
Another alternative is to have the node you are dragging over open after two seconds and display a placeholder child. If you want to make it a sibling, that will be your first option before the node has time to open. If you want it to be a child, wait a couple of seconds whilst the node opens to display any current children (and if not a placeholder child that you dynamically create for that purpose) Cheers, Martyn Alan Rother wrote: Yeah, I tried something similar, but since all of my nodes are essentially the same (all pages) and can all be a parent or a child (leaf or branch as it were) but the problem I'm running into is how do Idiscriminate between intent, in other words how do I know if the user wanted to move the page between two pages on the same level (re-ordering) or if they wanted to move the page to be the child of the page is was dropped onto.

The drag indicators are all lines, of different lengths, to show in a node or between nodes. Tree needs a block or bar highlight on the parent node itself, to indicate drop into here.
