I recently stumbled upon flex/openlaszlo (OL). Both seem very useful and I have a few questions about them: What is needed to deploy flex apps? From what I understand, the flex sdk is open source, but the other tools (for development and deployment) are proprietary. What is needed to deploy openlaszlo? Is it completely op...
I've been learning Degrafa recently, and I have noticed that there is not much consistency amongst examples posted on the web. Is there a place where I can find degrafa best practices (esp. for skinning)? or can anyone suggest examples that use best practices? ...
Is there some other simple method to redirect mouse/keyboard input from one object to an object behind it. I have used mouseEnabled = false where the object in front is only a UIComponent and it works. However mouseEnabled,mouseChildren=false is not working for an SWFLoader. ...

I have a flex app doing multiple file upload, and keep getting this error: Error #2038: File I/O Error Flex gives this error, yet it seems to work because the upload does get processed. This was happening intermittently, now on every attempt. Any ideas on what might be going on here? I've checked that permissions are read/write, google'...
I can't seem to get a stream that Flex 3 want's to decompress. I've tried: System.IO.Compression.GZipStream System.IO.Compression.DeflateStream ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.Zip.Compression.Streams.DeflaterOutputStream zlib.ZOutputStream None of these seem to make ByteArray.uncompress happy, i.e. I get Error #2058: There was an error ...
I am having some issues when trying to skin the scrollbar on a horizontalList with Degrafa. The scrollbar doesn't show up at all. I checked to see if the scrollbar is supposed to show up without the skinning, and it does. Are there any gotchas with doing this? Here is some code: This is where I define the HorizontalList where I want...
What would be the best way to implement the konami code into a flex application? I want to create a component to add it on all my proyects, just for fun. thanks UPDATE: I made a simple component, thanks to ZaBlanc <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:UIComponent xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" creationComplete="init()...
I have an application control bar at the bottom of my Flex application (with attributes width="100%", dock="false", left="0", bottom="0", height="50"). It contains a lot of elements (like buttons and labels). The width of the SWF is the width of the browser. When the user makes the width of the browser window smaller, after a certain po...
Is there not an event that occurs only when there has been some sort of visual change to an object. So for example if it were a video or animated object it would be firing as often as EnterFrame. However, if it were some sort of input control just sitting there doing nothing visually, then the event wouldn't fire until the visual state ...

Hello /dev/all, I just read a good tutorial at http://cateof.wordpress.com/2009/09/27/helloworld-air-application-in-linux/ about creating simple apps with air/flex. I was wondering if you have spotted similar pages around and if there is a good book that I can read in order to move from beginner to novice at this field. Thanks in advan...
For developing simple games with the Flex SDK, what are the consequences of using a Canvas object, versus a UIComponent object, as a drawing surface? Are there performance issues with either one? Are the methods generally the same? Searching around, it seems that most sample code I've found uses UIComponent. Is this just customary, or ar...
Flex 4 introduces states that are localized within a skin, and within a component. This makes sense on an MVC model, so the visual elements can have their own states (i.e. for a button: up, down, over, etc.) which are separate from a component's state. Yet, how would one go about making a global application state? Is there something alre...
