I'm having trouble conceptually understanding how to integrate flex components -- forms, charts, data grids, etc. -- with an existing web app. There are certain aspects of the web application where I believe it makes more sense to use flex -- however, I DO NOT want to replace the (html/js/java) web-app with a pure flex based app. For e...
I'm trying to port an existing AJAX app to Flex, and having trouble with the encoding of parameters sent to the backend service. When trying to perform the action of deleting a contact, the existing app performs a POST, sending the the following: (captured with firebug) contactRequest.contacts[0].contactId=2c33ddc6012a100096326b40a501...
Hi, I'm trying to create a simple layout of 3 horizontal Label/Text components. I'd like the components to resize depending on their text content, which will change at runtime. The components should look something like this: <mx:Label text="{firstNum}" /> <mx:Label text="-" /> <mx:Label text="{secondNum}" /> The output would look li...
I have a problem when creating a ViewStack, with a repeater along with other components (i.e. vBox) inside the ViewStack. The repeaters get placed at the bottom of the view. Despite the repeater is listed before other components, it is placed at the bottom. Is there a workaround where I can get the repeater drawn before the other compo...
Let's say that you're using some black box library (i.e. no source code) that sets your cursor to something when rolling over a certain sprite. You can override that by catching rollOver and rollOut events, blocking propagation and using the CursorManager. Question: is there a way to tell the CursorManager to use the system cursor? Ob...
I think this is just a matter of fine tuning some different elements, but I'd like to know your take. I've got a Flex app, using the Flex 4 data services, communicating with Zend AMF services. One of the services returns all the results in a database using SELECT * FROM table there are ~1200 rows (140KB package size). My problem is the ...
So I've created an Air app that saves to a custom file type. I've set up the file associations when I publish the app and, when you double click the file it opens the air app. What are the hooks for me to detect that the app has been opened via a file? Obviously, I need to detect this and then get the app to open the file itself. ...

I don't do flash myself: in this company, flash is generally used just for design elements, so the designers build the flash and my job is just getting it onto the site. All fine so far, but now one of the designers wants to move to using Flash Catalyst. Here's my understanding of how it works. If I'm wrong, please tell me. 1. Flash Cat...

Hi Stackoverflow, I am currently looking into Flex and Liferay for delivering an RIA. We are replacing a rather large existing application built on an internal AJAX/Java library. For this, Flex seems to meet our needs for development but we've had a wrench thrown into the works. We need to integrate with another internal app that's been...

I am using an area chart in Flex 4, though I've tried it in other SDKs & get the same result. I have a php call that returns 1 yr's worth of data. All is fine & the data shows up correctly. So far, so good. I have another that returns 4 months of data but the chart displays it in reverse order. Kind of weird, because I know that the da...

What's the catch here...
I have flex 4, zend & php. I am trying to generate a chart w/ 5 yrs of data & then let the user (without making another call to the server) get a 1 yr chart w/ the same data.
