I'm looking for an official Adobe page explaining the ins and outs of the various directories used in Flex Builder, namely html-template, bin-debug and bin-release. There's a lot happening in these folder: folders get created and deleted, files get copied around automatically, or not, as seems to be the case with AIR apps. I'm looking f...
Hello, I use a basic Post to send data to a Django server. The data consists of a base64 encoded 640*380 PNG image dynamically created by the flex component. <mx:HTTPService id="formSend" showBusyCursor="true" useProxy="false" url="http://127.0.0.1/form/" method="POST" result="formSentConfirmation(event)" fault="formSendi...

If you create a pure ActionScript project in Flex Builder 3 and want to do unit testing using flexunit, what is the best option? The built-in Flex builder will refuse to build the mxml file containing the TestRunnerBase component as it is a pure ActionScript project (no Flex allowed). It is impossible to add the mxml file to the "Action...
I let user enter some code in my Flex3 (Flash 10) app and I want to do syntax highlighting. Is there any open-source library that would help me? I'll need a Lua syntax support, but I can add it myself if library has a resonable interface to do this. ...
Hi, If someone logs on to my application this user contains a dictionary with certain permissions. ex: module.view.workspace = true module.view.reporting = false ... Then we know to what parts of the application the user has access. What I want to know is how we can apply these permissions on the view. We are working in an AS...
Probably not much more to elaborate on here - I'm using a NumericStepper control and I want the user to use the buttons only to change the value in the NS, not by typing into the control - I couldn't find a property to disable the text - does it exist? If it doesn't, how would I subclass this thing to disable the text? ...
Every now and then I get an error when I set up states in an MXML file. The error I get says that mx:states could not be resolved to a component implementation. I read, at the following url, that this issue is caused by extending components - that somehow throws off the compiler's ability to resolve mx:states. I don't see why this sho...
Hi - I'd like to know if it's possible to compile an .swf file at runtime via C# (would be called via a Flex Application). I've read some articles about using fsch.exe, but nothing that gave any concrete examples. I'm fairly certain this is possible, so a secondary question is whether it's feasible on a medium scale. I'd like to allow u...
I've trouble getting my components to update when the params has changed: package mycompany { import flash.events.Event; import mx.events.SliderEvent; import mx.controls.HSlider; import mx.controls.sliderClasses.Slider; public class FromToSlider extends HSlider { /* from: */ private var _from:...
I'm researching game development in Flash and Flex. I've downloaded the Flex Builder trial and have worked with older versions of Flash. I see that generally, Flex Builder is a developer's tool, and Flash is a designer's tool. It's not clear to me whether one is better suited to game development than the other, or if it's necessary to...
Hi, I am a Java programmer and need to work on a Flex/ActionScript project right now. I got an example of using ITreeDataDesriptor from Flex 3 Cookbook, but there is one line of actionscript code that's hard for me to understand. I appreciate if someone could explain this a little further. public function getData(node:Object, model:Ob...
Do you build all your login, account creation, password recovery, etc. into your Flex app, or do you keep all of that in web pages and only redirect to the .swf on successful login? ...
When I set a component to visible=false the component hides, but how do I get it to take no space (get the container it belongs to to resize??) <mx:HBox width="100%" height="100%"> ... </mx:HBox> <mx:HBox width="100%" id="boxAddComment" visible="false" > <mx:TextArea id="txtComment"/> <mx:Button label="Spara" click="addCommen...
I have a DataGridColumn with an ItemRenderer that extends the Box component. The default display is a Text component. When the user clicks on the text component, I change the State to add a PopUpMenuButton child, and make the Text component invisible. This works fine. However, I only want to allow one PopUpMenuButton to be visible in the...
I have a DataGrid with RadioButtons in one column using itemRenderer. The DataGrid resides on a TitleWindow which is created and popped-up everytime the user clicks a button. The dataProvider for the DataGrid is an ArrayCollection, and the RadioButtons are selected or not based on a boolean value in each ArrayCollection item when the win...
I am trying to make one field in a datagrid editable with a numeric stepper. My current attempts look like they are working, but the dataProvider is not actually being changed. Based on what I have read in a billion different places, the syntax should be < mx:DataGridColumn dataField="a" itemRenderer="mx.controls.NumericStepper" rend...
I have a flex web app and want to integrate it with Java. The app will have a very small database (2-3 tables), and some routine logic like sending mail. According to this link (http://learn.adobe.com/wiki/display/Flex/2b.+Code+Files), I would need to also have a .jsp file. I thought Flex would only be interested in my classes? Also, ...
I'm trying to do some research on flash objects in browsers. For example memory usage etc. With Adobe Flex Builder 3 im trying to do some profiling on swf files but the problem is that I can only do this on debug swfs. Almost all adds/games/video are release version. Is there a way to some testing on those? ...
Similar to the XP login screen, in Flex 3, how can I display a warning to the user in a textbox that the CAPS LOCK key is enabled? ...
