There are hundreds of posts on this subject, none with solution. [URL].. has an answer which is meaningless. The mxml page I am developing already has a ComboBox dragged onto it, this does not magically put the DataProvider in a library or similar as implied.
If I open a new Flash (AS3) file in Flash CS3 Professional and try to import DataProvider (import fl.data.DataProvider;), I consistantly receive a compiler error (1172: Definition fl.data:DataProvider could not be found).
I need to use DataProvider class and i cannot find the package that contains it. In all examples I saw they use fl.data, but I'm using flex builder sdk 3.4 beta and it doesn't have such a package.
I try to assign xml as dataprovider to datgrid. The datgrid is inside a moviclip. If i attach that movieclip from current ApplicationDomain, it works. If i try to attach from another ApplicationDomain, it doesnt work. But i can trace the object name and DataProvider (is []). The assigning part doesnt work. any setting issue?
Here is the error,
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert fl.data::DataProvider@32377dc1 to fl.data.DataProvider.
I am building an app for a website that will filter through the shops carrying some products/brands and show the results in a List component. I got all the way up to loading the data, putting brands/countries/cities in comboboxes so a user can filter in which country and city he wants to look and for which brand. No problem till now. My problem is that while the dataprovider works as it should when hardcoding some values to the labels that I use for the item renderer of each entry, I cannot get the real data from the data provider. You will see in the code below, that in the VGroup component (which I use for each shop in the list) there are 4 labels, where 3 of them are hard coded, just to see it works.
One of the labels though is trying to get the real data from the xml file and thats where I stop. In all the tutorials i ve seen (and documentation too) everybody just hits "data.XYZ" where XYZ is the name of the attribute or node to get. Doing the same in my case just returns an error of "1120: Access of undefined property data.". There is also an xml file but its loaded correctly and the different xmlLists DO have the correct nodes stored, so I do not think it needs to be posted, unless you think otherwise. The xml nodes for each shop are "title", "tel","mail","city" and I am stuck trying to get the title. The function that matters the most is the filterShops one and then of course the whole list and itemrenderer block.
Here am getting array of groups(groupName,GroupID each row ) from a RemoteObject and displaying in a ComboBox. I am selecting the groups with selectedIndex as 0,1,2,3, but I want my groupIDs of correspoding groupnames,which am bringing to client side.
How can I get actual the groupId of the selected group?
In Flex, how do I create a summary(say total of various domains) from the data provider and display in chart? Say this is my dataprovider.. I want to display the total estimate of each territory as a slice in piechart
private var dpFlat:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([ {Region:"Southwest", Territory:"Arizona", Territory_Rep:"Barbara Jennings", Actual:38865, Estimate:40000}, [code].....
Following is the sample code. While I start editing either in optionId column or option column, the other rows of the same column are also get affected and reflecting the same value. But when I am editing in other columns it is working fine... Don't know the reason.
I know how to display data in a List control using dataProvider but what about control that don't have dataProvider e.g. TextInput, Label contorl?[code]Try to use {dp.ID} and {dp.getItemAt(0).ID} on TextInput but nothing being display?How to make TextInput id=" first Name" able to display the SQL data?
I am using an component, and currently have a dataProvider working that is an ArrayCollection (have a separate question about how to make this an XML file... but I digress). Variable declaration looks like this:
I have a flex datagrid. it is bound to an array collection. if the user sorts on column X it works fine. then, if the user causes the array collection to change, the datagrid forgets that it was sorted on column X.what do I need to do to preserve this sort preference so that the new array data will appear sorted by column X?
I am using a TileList control with an effect sequence linked to the itemsChangeEffect property.[code]...
However, my data provider is a ListCollectionView that I use to filter items. When I set a filter criteria, it will hide a couple of items from the TileList but there is no animation like when I remove an item. Is there a way to animate the TileList when an item is filtered ?
I have the Following requirement and I do not even know where to begin.I have created a map of a Country and on the map are several towns and cities, obviously easy enough so far.So, for example, say the XML data provides information of ten different pieces of information, one might be say Lightning Strikes.
I want to be able to create a dynamic map that adds a Red dot beside the City, that represents a record of the lightning strike. Or ,if required a larger dot might represent 10 lightning strikes if it is a very regular occurance.The main objective is to provide an up to date visual representation of which location is more active.I don't mind experimenting or following a link or guide to work it out,
I`m using flash cs3 for my works , but i have one problem!when i use File=> Import=> Import to Library... or Import to Stage...the flash environment becomes terminated.I changed my flash version to CS4 and I have this problem again.
I am using an component, and currently have a dataProvider working that is anArrayCollection (have a separate question about how to make this an XML file... but I digress).Variable declaration looks like this:
[Bindable] private var _dpImageList : ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([ {"location" : "path/to/image1.jpg"},
My supervisor is interested in showing certain data within a dynamic map and this data must be fed from an Excel file. I was thinking I may have to use some service to convert the XLS to a CSV file, but if there's a direct way to do it with AS3 I can skip that step. The Excel file will be updated regularly. Eventually, she wants this movie to allow her to modify the Excel file as well.
Like if I were to take a non flattened, layered .psd and load it in using as3, would I be able to get information about each layer in the .psd, such as position, name of the layer, etc.?
I have started a installation locater, I have a map of UK which will have the hotspots(button) put on each county, once someone clicks on one of the counties it will bring up a list of 3 installers, once someone clicks on an installer it will bring up their contact details.
I am at the point where I'd like to incorporate tables of attribute data specific to my movie clips. For example, tables of demographic info specific to US counties. I'd like to make these data queriable by clicking on a specific county (mc). I've been reading some tutorials and it sounds like I should convert my data to xml (from a CSV or XLS) and then import the XML to my stage and start learning the ins/outs of calling on its values.
Am I starting down the right path? First off, I've not found a very straightforward way to get my data into XML. It originates in a DBF and i could easily convert it to tab-del text, csv or anything else.Also, should i rethink where I am starting with this and not use XML altogether, maybe using something else?
I want to know how to import data from an xml file, but I can't figure it out. The tutorials I take aren't clear enough and I just need someone to talk to.If there is someone out there that knows how to read data from an xml file for AS2.0 and is willing to help me, please send me a message at:
We have a system that allows a user to upload any image, which we store on the server. Of course, it is simple to load an image (that you know the path to) using loadMovie, but I also want to load certain pieces of meta data about the image that is precalculated and stored on the server; we may one day want to retrieve things completely unrelated to the image as well, so consider the non-image data to be arbitrary.So, that said, is there a way to simply return the image as a variable (urlencoded and returned in a loadVars request, perhaps) and then load that data into a movie clip?
Bonus Lightning Round Question: Is there a way to check the output of a PHP script which processes uploads when the request is sent via FileReference.upload(url:String)? Should I load/escape the binary data and then send it using a loadVars() request if I want to see the output?
I am attempting to import some simple XML data into Flash ActionScript 3.0. I can easily do this as an import that is posted to the stage, but I want to save it as a global variable instead. Here is the XML file that I am pulling from[code]...
I am going to be writing an app in flash builder and I want the ability to import CSV data into an SQLite database in Adobe Air/flashbuilder.
I have never done anything like this and am not totally sure where to start.I will want to do some manipulation of the data before I reinsert it. So really I need to know what steps (classes and functions) I need to use to parse the data from a CSV file into an array that can be manipulated in actionscript?
I am using Flash CS5 to generate an array of the notes in a midi file. Basically I store data such as time of the note, note duration, pitch, scale, volume, etc.I have 2 questions:How can I export all these data in order to use it in after effects (as a txt file? other formats?);How do I use the exported file in After Effects later on: How do I tell After Effects when to start playing a note in a specific time? how do I associate note height with a specific feature (lets say - square width) - and so on.I DO know some basic coding in after effect (how to associate elements inside After - such as volume and opacity) but I need to understand how to deal with an exported file (and in which format to generate it).
My friend and I were looking into trying to have flash (cs3 or 4 probably) communicate somehow with Excel*, I know this is a general question, but is that in any way possible?
