ActionScript :: Using Flex Components Without Any MXML

Jul 29, 2011

My Main.as extends flash.display.Sprite, I want to use a ComboBox component in the as, without any mxml, how to implement it? I read this Possible to use Flex Framework/Components without using MXML?, Its main as extends spark.components.Application, but still need a mxml file. Its main idea is to rewrite the Application component, and reuse it in mxml file. That is not what I want. I uses Flex SDK 4.1

Flex :: MXML Syntax To Assign Properties Of Subcomponents In Custom MXML Components?

Jun 4, 2011

I am working on a custom Flex 4 component which is an aggregation of two existing flex components.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flex Components Without MXML?

Nov 1, 2010

I'm working on an AIR project in Flash Builder 4. My question has apparently been asked a lot (according to Google), but I haven't found a satisfactory answer so I'll be very detailed in what I'm looking for:Is there any way to create an AIR project in pure ActionScript that:Is truly object-oriented (i.e. the entry point is an ActionScript class with instance variables and methods)?Can instantiate mx and spark controls without MXML?I was able to accomplish #2 in fairly different ways by following these two sets of instructions (with only a tiny bit of initial MXML):

[URL]

However, neither of those allows me to accomplish #1. If I declare a private member variable outside the entry point function, I get an error from the compiler that the keyword 'private' can only be used in a class.If you like MXML, feel free to post your viewpoint as well. My reservations revolve mostly around these perceived notions:The learning curve of MXML seems steep.The time it will take to become good at MXML will not be worth the investment since its main purpose is to ease GUI development (which I'm already good at anyway).Like I said previously, I don't want to be an "XML programmer". I'd like to maintain the power and flexibility of OOP.

Flex :: Sharing Variables Between MXML Components

May 29, 2010

I have several mxml components in an app, all of which need the same variable called genericX. I've included that variable in the main mxml and made it public
[Bindable] public var genericX:Number = 102;
But I still can't access it from other mxml components. If I try to do this for example, it doesn't recognize the variable.
<s:Button x="{genericX}" label="Click" />

Actionscript 3 :: Creating Components By MXML Or By SCRIPT/FLEX?

Mar 9, 2012

im trying to figure out what is better for run-time, creating components in MXML or by SCRIPT?. I built an app that recieves data from a server without knowing how much data exactly. In worst case scenerio , ill need 10 LABELS and 2 DATAGROUPS.But i usually need something like 3 LABELS and 1 datagroup. what is better? creating all components in advance and than not include in layout the ones i dont need, or make some checks and then create only the components i need by script? I made some tests , but it wasnt really decisive, run-time was pretty much simillar.Im guessing it must be stated somewhere what is better. Does anyone have an answer for me?

Actionscript :: Flex - Setting ScaleX / Y In Mxml Effect The Components Size

Jan 1, 2010

I'm playing around with the scaleX/Y in the canvas tag and have noticed some strange behaviour. When I set scale in in mxml the width and height of the canvas are adjusted accordingly. For example if I have a canvas like this: <mx:Canvas width="1000" height="1000" scaleX="0.1" scaleY="0.1" />

The canvas now appears on screen to have a width and height of 100 and if inside my creationComplete callback I check the width and height property they are indeed 100. But if I do exactly the same thing except I set the scaleX/Y property from actionscript the canvas on screen appears to have a width and height of 100 as expected, but when I check the width and height property of the canvas they are still at the previous values of 1000.

Flex :: Create Skinnable Components In MXML Using Spark Component Architecture?

Oct 14, 2010

There are lots of examples of how to create skinnable components in AS3 using the new Spark component architecture, however I've yet to find any such examples using MXML.What I'm mainly referring to is defining the skin parts and skin states. It seems as though the SkinPart metadata is supposed to be associated with properties and as such can't be used in MXML, is this correct?

Flex :: Mxml - Components Bound To Empty ArrayCollection At Load Time Don't Render As Expected When The ArrayCollection Is Updated?

Oct 27, 2009

I'm new to Flex and am using TileList bound to an ArrayCollection. The array collection is empty at load time, and then updates with the results from am HTTPService call. The problem is that the item renderers aren't being rendered as expected, I'm guessing because there was no data when they were first rendered at load time. Here's simplified example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" >
