And when I start my debugging session, the application does not break at that poi...

I'm not sure I'm using the right terms. Long ago I tinkered with Eclipse and recall there were "environment variables" that could be specified in project settings and compiler directive fields in the GUI itself to customize builds. I believe the syntax was similar to ant properties, like ${env.HOME} for inserting the user's home direct...

This is the setup. I have created a timeline with a playhead. When my playhead is dragged I would like the timeline to scroll with the drag. So far, the only way I can do this is by setting clipAndEnableScrolling to true. But in this case I lose the scrollbars(not to mention the impact on my view). So what I would like is to set this pr...

This hasn't always ...

When I try to debug and step into (F5) the dispatchEvent call I get FlashBuilder error "Asynchronous viewer update" displayed twice. Does anyone have an idea why this might be failing? Possibly cyclical references? I have tried using weakRef...

My current plan is to load the SWF with SWFLoader and attaching listeners to the buttons in a onComplete event would be the proper way to set it up, however i cannot seem to find a way to access the buttons thems...
Hello, I am very new to programming in FLEX. I have inherited a FLEX 4 project that invokes web services to display data to the end user.

I have...

I'm using the [SWF] metadata tag to format my SWF. My initial impulse is to create some sort of logic around said tag, but I've a feeling that won't work. Thanks in...
Hello, I am implementing a LineChart in FLEX 4. I have the chart working well except I do not like the default colors and cannot use them, as they do not relate to my data very well. For instance, Orange is not a great default color for my data column "Outdoor temperature". I would rather override it and use a green color if possible. ...

Hello, I wrote a function to override my FLEX LineChart's datatips because the default datatips were ugly and rather boring. I finally set the style I wanted but am now having some problems removing un-necessary tags from being displayed in the custom datatips. For example, the datatips now display things like this: "<b>Humidity</b></...
