Within an event handler I have an Alert.show(...) that prompts a user for confirmation. How can I capture the selection of the alert prompt and use it within the event handler.

I've got some text that includes links that I display in a RichEditableText component. How do I change the color of the links from the default blue? I tried the example posted by Peter deHaan but it doesn't work with SDK 4.1. I found a way to do this in MXML, but the text needs to be localizable which means I load it at runtime based o...

I have a web-application whose UI is implemented in GXT (ext GWT). Now I want to switch to Flex but as the application is so large that I cannot afford to start migrating the whole application at once. So I have decided to migrate slowly.

You can hook into the creation of Flex 4 item renderers easily enough (through itemRenderer, or itemRendererFunction) allowing you to pull renderers from a custom object pool, but how would you put those renderers back into the pool? I understand that layout virtualization does a form of object pooling, but I'd like a way to hook in to ...

I have two line charts appearing on one page side-by-side in Flex. In each case the x-axis is a date time axis, the y-axis is whatever I get by default. The maximum value shown on the y-axis of each chart (i.e. the y-axis scale) automatically adjusts itself according to the data on the chart. This is good, since I don't know what data w...

The behavior is a bit varied when we access it on IE6 and IE7(both IEs are having same flash Player version). IE6 doesn’t work at all but IE7 works for some conditions. On Windows machine it is working fine(in IE6 and...

I need to detect when a Flex Spark List (spark.components.List) data has changed so that I can programmatically change its scrollbar.

So the dataProvider is never replace...
In Flex, is it possible to listen to all event types of an object that's an IEventDispatcher? addEventListener's first parameter is the type, which is a string. In many cases the documentation is not clear what event type it fires. I'd like to attach a generic listener to inspect the events. ...
