Apr 21, 2010I've got a pure AS3 (no Flex) project that uses Flare to display and interact with a data visualization. I just implemented some panning behavior, so you can click and drag the visualization around, and now I'd like to give the user a visual indicator that this is possible, by switching the arrow cursor with a nice grabby-looking hand icon.The user can click and drag at any time except when the mouse is over a clickable node (at which time the cursor swaps to a pointer - this behavior is already in place).
1) Do I need to create my own custom bitmap/sprite or is there a palette of built-in cursors I can use? (I'm not using Flex.)
2) Is there a way to simply replace the default arrow with the pan cursor project-wide, or do I need to attach the swapping to mouse events on display objects? Can I use the stage object to make this behavior apply everywhere?
3) How do I perform the swap? Do I use the Cursor object directly or do I need to get involved with the CursorManager?
Flex :: Create A Interactive Graphs Using Flare Or Other Visualization Classes?
Jul 20, 2010Does anyone know of software or flex/flash/as3 source or visualisation software that could be used to make interactive graphs, where the user would enter a query that would pull data from a MySQL database and the user would build a sunburst or icicle graph by dragging and dropping items into a tree-like structure and they would be able to view the graph? i have attempted to use flare but my programming skills are pretty bad. So far from what i gather, flare only allows the graphing of defined datasets rather than allowing a user to modify the dataset and thus creating a new dataset.

I found this Ravis (Birdeye), but not much of examples and support is available for that.

Feb 16, 2011Are there javascript libraries that can handle large data visualization? I've seen Protovis, but not sure how much data it can handle. Also, how do Actionscript libraries compare to Javascript in terms of performance?More:I've tried Flare, but seems to be slow for my applictaion. Now I'm yet to figure out if it is the rendering or if it is the shaping of data for rendering. I am looking at interactive graphs like the JobVoyager.

AS3 :: Flash - OOP Visualization Logic - Linking Filters And Data Source?
Aug 16, 2010I'm trying to visualize the results of a quiz in ActionScript 3.0.What I would like some input on is how to best link the "filters" (top right corner in attached image) to the data source in a flexible OOP way.The result array now contains both number of correct answers and meta data about the person taking the quiz. The meta data could be both discrete (sex) or continuous (age).
results = [{name: "Lisa", correct: 5, sex: 0, age: 52}, {name: "Peter", correct: 3, sex: 1, age: 32} ... ]
How do I tell the boxes to, for example, change color when I change filter?Should each box object hold its own data or should there be some sort of controller listening to the filter object to dispatch an event and thereafter call a box.setColor method?
Licensing :: License The Data Visualization Components (charting) For The Flex SDK On An Automated Builder Server?
Oct 23, 2009I have a professional license of Flex 3.3. This allows me to create applications using the data visualization components (charts) without watermarks. However, all of release builds (test, production, etc) occur on our build server.
The build server only has the Flex SDK installed (not full Flex Builder). As a result the SWFs compiled with this SDK contain watermarks on all the charts. How can I apply a Flex Builder Professional license to the build server to remove the watermakrs w/o installing Flex Builder?My build environment is Flex SDK 3.3 + CruiseControl.NET + NAnt.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Framework - All Different Way Of Loading Data?
Jun 18, 2010I'm developing a little framework in as3 for making my works someway faster. I'm trying to make a loader as flexible as it can be because different clients want different loading ways: XML, single swf, etc. I've used loading external data with an XML and, inside flash IDE, with the option of "export for Action Script". Now, my question is, which are all the ways of loading data in a flash app? I've been looking but i'm kinda lost, too many search results.
View 1 RepliesFlash :: Web Based Visual Programming Interface Based On Python For Data Visualization
Nov 4, 2011I just discovered impure.com and was very impressed by what can be achieved in terms of visualizing data using their workspace. Although the platform is free to use, but not open source yet. This causes a few problems because the API section works with .com sites for eg. for ebay, so I cannot visualize ebay listings for regional sites such as ebay.in because the link to ebay.com is hardcoded.I searched around, but didn't find other projects that offer a similar way to work with site APIs and other data sources with the kind of user interface and detail that impure.com does in a realtime way within a browser window.This brings me to the questions:
-What technologies would be involved in creating a similar kind of project
-What are the open source tools that can help develop a fullscreen UI to render the workspace. Are there any alternatives to flash for this, and how do they compare
The goal would be to use standard python data structures, python scripts to do some processing on these data structures, scripts to gather data from csv, json and API sources such as google yahoo, wikipedia and flickr, and scripts to render graphs, tag clouds, network visualizations etc. Then bring them all together into a visual interface that supports drag drop and simple type checking.How would the python backend integrate with the UI.

View 2 RepliesJava :: Alternatives For Authentication?
May 8, 2010Preferably something that integrates well with a Flex front end. Yes the Spring Security guys say this is possible, but all examples seem to use legacy jsp tag libraries making them half useless as examples.I don't want to spend a month setting up and learning how to use a security tool. I would like a tool which supports using annotations (@RolesAllowed etc), MINIMAL XML, and 'remember-me' features (not cookie based).Apache Shiro seems to support Flex/Silverlight/Swing as well but I'd like to know if there are any other alternatives that are NOT container specific.

Jun 22, 2010I'm looking at options for rendering PDFs on the server to avoid the user having to download them (they're big docs) and/or have a PDF reader installed and configured (audience is not tech savvy). The Google Viewer and Scribd are nice examples, but I'm not interested in making the PDFs available on the web (for Google) or storing them on another party's servers (Scribd).
My favorites right now are FlexPaper and PDFWebViewer.NET but I wanted to see if I'm missing any other options.Most of the related SO questions on this topic are somewhat dated, so maybe there's something new?

And then spam/content bots/scrappers get in.Wt are other strong and effective alternatives availableAnd I thought about something like on smartphones these days that it ask you to drag to unlock. I think if that can be made in Adobe Flash or maybe using HTML5? .. do you think it will work effectively? note that emphasize is on defeating HUMAN + BOT partnership where human element comes from Asian countries to enter Captcha code or simple answers and then bots come into play.

ActionScript 3 :: Alternatives For Registering Events On Stage?
Feb 1, 2010I am programming a little software prototype as Flash/Actionscript3 application. Currently I registered some Events on stage - but it is cumbersome since stopPropoagation() needs to be used all the time. As Example: I am having a element shown via mouseclick would and a event for closing the menu on stage. Without using stopPropagation, the menu opens and closes again immediately. The hide-function is registered on some objects so just checking if target= stage would not do it, unfortunately.

Javascript - Web Standards Alternatives To Flex/Silverlight?
May 19, 2010Is there a set of open standards technologies that I can use to achieve the same way of development as in Flex and Sivlerlight? I am talking about componentization, separation of concerns, rich graphics, states and effects . Please point out some tutorials and other resources if possible.
P.S. I KNOW that this is technically possible, so please do not respond by sending google search results or general JQuery tutorials. I've seen those already. I need to know how a Flex / Silverlight developer could design and implement an application in roughly the same way (imagine a rich HTML tag set, much like XAML/MXML, behind which stands JavaScript responsible for handling events and business logic.
Actionscript 3 :: MouseEvent ROLL_OVER/ROLL_OUT Alternatives?
Feb 5, 2011I have a custom cursor and I want it to change when you highlight a MovieClip, and return to its default value when the MovieClip is not highlighted anymore.I've used MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, and MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT. The result isn't very smooth and there is a small delay to when the cursor changes. Also sometimes if you move the mouse fast enough the cursor won't change at all.

Is there a way to cache the map or somehow have it so it is less processor intensive?
