I'm using FlexBuilder 3. I love the way the layout guides tell you when a component you're placing on a canvas is so far from the next component (presumably 8 pixels). Is it possible to change the distance at which the ruler guide pops up? I'm putting a series of labels close together and would like to change this to, say, 4 pixels. ...

I'm thinking of choosing Adobe AIR as the client-side implementation technology for an upcoming project. (The previous choice was C# and WPF, but I've been really impressed with Flash/Flex/AIR lately.) But one of the most important features of my product will be its plugin architecture, allowing third party developers to extend the func...

I can't find any way to register a keyboard hook, and listening for keyboard events only captures them when the app has focus. Suggestions? ...

I have rows of text data that can vary between 0 and 100, and all need to be visible on the screen at one time. The default behavior is fine for the grid until the rows * rowHeight > gridHeight.
