3D classes tutorial
What is the purpose of the dollar sign? Here is a sample of the code:
[AS]class com.lo9ic.Style {
private var $linealpha, $lineweight, $fillalpha : Number;
private var $linecolor, $fillcolor : String;[code]....
when I debug a flex application in the properties of display objects i also see variables that start with a dollar sign, like: $alpha, $width, $x, etc.. what are they? are they different from the "normal" alpha, width, x properties?

View 1 RepliesI have a flex application, running with amfphp and connected to wamp, I want to use a secure connection using ssl, but my whole application is running from the same swf file, would using ssl in that case mean that all the data, being sent and received between the server and client ,encrypted? Because this is not what I'm trying to do, I only want to encrypt the sign up and sign in data.
please note that, I have log-in bar which is visible the whole time as long as the user is not signed in.in other words, I only want to secure some of the data being transferred not every thing.
I have a datagrid column with numbers in it. How do I:
1. add a '%' sign at the end of each number in the column
2. make the color either red or green depending on if the number is less than or greater than 0, respectively. I've been able to do 1 or the other but not both. Here is what I have, which does #2 but not #1:

View 1 RepliesWe are using Mike Davidson's SIFR implementation and so far so great, however we have noticed that it converts any white space into %20's, unfortunately that breaks any % signs we have in our product descriptions.
View 1 RepliesI have a flash movie that loads variables from a text file. I need it to be able to display plus signs. Right now they are omitted from display.
For example, if the text file reads variable1=1 + 1; Flash displays "1 1".
Is there a special way to store plus signs in the text file so they are displayed properly?
When I enter my e-mail address in an input text field in the flash movie, some funny character appears before @. How do I solve this? I googled a bit and found out thatActionScript Code:System.useCodePage = true; could cause this, and I was told by someone else that @ sign wasn't included in the system character set. So, which one is true and how do I avoid it?
View 0 RepliesI have a dynamic text field that I would like to say "+250 Points". After embedding the fonts, it works fine with a normal font like Arial. But when I try to use a downloaded font, the text shows up with a vertical rectangle instead of a plus sign (mytextField.text = "+250 Points"; ).The font that I'm using (Arcade Classic) has a plus sign character that I can type in to the field in Flash, but AS3 won't cut it. This is after selecting All glyphs and putting in + on the extra characters to embed.

I've downloaded a template flash slideshow, and the client want's to display a price on the text the appears with the pictures. No problem I thought. Dollar signs work fine, but pound signs, no. Reading round on the net, this has something to do with embedded fonts ?
I emailed the developer who said I needed to add the pound sign to the text fields in the source file. Ok so I look through the source file, I can see one thing that looks like a text field. Forums say choose properties and the should be a font's dropdown.
I have just converted a native Android app to Flex 4.5 AIR, and I now need to sign it.
Does anyone know if it is possible to use the keystore that I used to sign the original Android app?

Having problems getting euro sign to display when loaded from external .txt file into dynamic text field using:
var myLv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLv.load("test.txt");
myLv.onLoad = function (success) {
if(success){
[Code].....
tried saving the test.txt file as UTF-8 no joy, also the myvar above needs to display a bunch of text with a scrollbar, peculiar things happen such as, euro sign doesn't display, or, if I embed the font used, with say Arial, text doesn't display properly, if device fonts are chosen without embed, text displayed doesn't display the euro sign, '€' the common way to code the euro in html doesn't get recognised in .txt file?
In a project i'm working on i need to have a custom font on CombBox instances. I set this up by using a custom CellRenderer class where i use the attached code:
Everything works fine, when seen through a browser on a computer which doesn't have the font installed it renders the font just fine.
But then i need to read data from an external XML file and some of the texts include the euro sign (€) which for some misterious reason won't show up, instead a weird square pops-up. Has anyone seen this before? Any know workarounds for this matter?
make a spinning sign that gradually slows down. A tutorial maybe or an .fla file I can look at?
View 3 RepliesI use several controls with combo boxes and data grids, which I fill using a HTTPService which returns some XML. However in the XML there are some telephone numbers starting with a plus sign (ie. +123456). However in the combo boxes and the data grids the plus sign doesn't show (so it would display as 12345646).

View 1 RepliesI want to restrict my NumericStepper so that you can't type invalid characters into it (like a comma). I'm trying this, and it works:
<s:initialize>
stepper.textDisplay.restrict = "0-9 - .";
</s:initialize>
<s:NumericStepper id="stepper" />
Except the negative sign can't be typed anymore, even though I specify it. If I do it directly on a TextInput, it works:
<s:TextInput restrict="0-9 - ." minimum="-10" />
Why doesn't this work?

If anyone has some thoughts could you tell me how to modify this code to check for both
