ActionScript 3.0 :: CS5 Custom Component (Inspectable) Metadata Tag File Browser
Jun 10, 2011
So I'm writing a Component for our artists to use and I need to be able to point at an XML document. I could have them simply write out the path in a string, but I'd like to allow them to navigate to the source file with a file browser if possible. I've looked through much of the documentation for metadata tags and haven't found anything "reliable"... for instance... [URL]. Lists possible "types" for [Inspectable] metadata, but it doesn't list nearly all of them... I'm currently using a type="Video Content Path" to let them browse to a video file... but I would think that Adobe would also have a type that allowed to browse to any file type, not just a video.

I have them appearing fine in the component definition panel, but the values entered here seem to be overridden by the component inspector and the var doesn't appear here unless I enter it manually and then there's no way to make it a list.In my class I have:
Code:
[Inspectable(defaultValue="controls", type="list", enumeration="controls,noControls")]
public var controlValue;

I have two components (lets call them A and B) which have normal inspectable properties (e.g. NAME and AGE) which allow you to enter values via the component inspector. When I type the value for NAME in component B (via the component inspector) I communicate via a singleton class and store this value in a NON INSPECTABLE property located in component A.
When I run the movie, I want to access this non inspectable property within component A; however, it is always null - the value will not persist from design time to runtime. I check that the value is set at design time by tracing the A's non inspectable property once component B has set it - and it does indeed work, so I know component B has managed to set the correct value in A.Basically, what I need to know is, how do you persist properties of a component from design to runtime, without having to make properties inspectable and having to manually type property values via the component inspector?

I created a custom MXML component, TurboContent, that extends the NavigatorContent class:
<s:NavigatorContent xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">
[Code].....
In this case, the 'myButton' component never shows up, but all the elements of the base component do (3 buttons and a datagrid).

I am working on an enterprise application and creating a base class for some stage components that has knowledge of the class extending it. More specifically, I need a way to loop through the inspectable properties in a class file and place the names of these variables into an array. For example:
Code:
[Inspectable(name="My First Variable", type="String", defaultValue="")]
private var _myVar1:String;
[Inspectable(name="My Second Variable", type="String", defaultValue="")]
private var _myVar2;

I have a custom Flex 4.5 component (to be used in a List) -
Game.mxml (represents a clickable playing table in a card game):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:ItemRenderer [code].......
But I never see the "game clicked: " trace. Does anybody please know why? I'm probably missing something minor, because I can see the "Clicked: 8946" trace.

This is similar to the question asked here. I am dispatching custom event "ShopEvent" but i am getting error "Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@81ecb79 to com.events.ShopEvent"Note: Error is thrown from the parent custom component (3rd code snippet), I have added more details thereThis is my custom event. See the first constant, I copy pasted the event name in custom components.

I'm building a top view 2D map, that it's objects are stored on the server.The kind of objects are 10 and might be a photo, label, button, lists, mix of them or labels with tooltips.The component must request the "areas" that are missing on screen.An area is 1000x1000 px and is cached in flex.To move in the map, will be like in google maps (drag-and-drop).I should be able to have another list and move objects from one to another using drag-an-drop on objects. Ex.: I grab an objects from a list and I move it on this map, I release the mouse button and the item is placed there.Now the problem is: I build a custom component for this trying to emulate the item renderer for performance and recyclage, implement drag-and-drop on objects and request the areas that are missing?
or
I extend the List component from spark and I add some features as multiple kind of itemrenderers and use recycle on them. Of course it must be able to request the missing areas on the screen and cache it's data.Maybe create a custom layout is needed too.What I need is something that must be really fluid, so the lighter this component is, the better.
UPDATE: *There will be not any object over another.
*I will not use hitTest on bitmaps because all bitmaps are wrapped in another component,as they,for now are itemrenderers.
Anyway I already begin to do this using a class that extends the SkinnableDataContainer and a custom layout. As the layout is not like a grid, is sparse, random items at diferent points(x, y).How to get the localX and localY, relative to item renderer and not to the Spark List, from a DragEvent in Flex 4?

I was wondering how do you inject metadata into an f4v file with quepoints? I've been reading somewhere that it's either during encoding or a custom actionscript that embeds when the file runs.

I have a situation where a simple query against a table is returning incorrect values in Flex, but not in other GUI front-ends to SQLite.
select title from ttl where ttl.ttl = 140 // ttl is also the column name of the PK column
is returning the title that belongs to the row whose PK = 1400.
ttl.ttl is defined as int datatype.
Again, the problem manifests itself only in Flex, not in other GUI front-ends to SQLite, which are returning the correct title value.

For a research project I am looking for a way to collect the file system metadata of a certain file. The user selects a file on his system and the app retrieves the metadata of the file, only the metadata and not the actual contents. A friend of mine made a test app using SWFupload [URL] and it works, however not all attributes from the metadata can be retrieved. I would also want to collect 'lastaccesstime' and 'owner' from the metadata. Try the test app [URL]
The following code has been used to make this test app:
function fileDialogComplete() { //this.startUpload(); var f = this.getFile(); var a = "File Info
"; a += "Created: " + f.creationdate + "

This is NOT duplicate of my earlier post (its is slightly different)But this is similar issue with similar error but its not the same error The error I am getting now is below while dispatching the custom event from my custom component
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert events::MapEvent@a74ab51 to flash.events.MouseEvent.
dispatchEvent(new MapEvent(MapEvent.CLICKED_ON_MAP));
Note: The error in my earlier post is giving below error message
Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@81ecb79 to com.events.ShopEvent
The difference here are two things, the earlier error is while converting flash event to custom event and now this one is while converting custom event to flash event and secondly, I have no clue why it is trying to convert to the mouseevent where I am just dispatching my custom event with proper listeners.
This is my custome event
package events
{
import flash.events.Event;
import ui.map.MapElement;

Is it possible, via Adobe Air, to save multiple types of data in a single file? For example, an application would allow the user to load in external images, position them on stage and label them. This data would be then be stored in a ByteArray (I guess) using BitmapData for the images and probably XML for the metadata.
I would then like to write this to a single file, with a bespoke file extension that could be associated with said Air app.

The spark panel component for example can be written like this
<Panel title="Skinny">
<child components ... />
<controlBarGroup>
<child control bar components ... />
</controlBarGroup>
[Code]...
The motivation here is that I can now create a couple different skin files to change the look and layout of those subgroups. Reading source of the spark panel, there are some calls within the mx_internal namespace such as getMXMLContent() which is a method of the spark group component, but which I have no access to.
Does the description above make sense? How can I create custom 'contentGroups' in my custom Flex4 component that can use nested mxml child components? Should I approach this a different way?
