Display Element Borders In Flex App?

Feb 1, 2010

Is there a way to put borders around the (MXML) elements of a Flex application? I'm picturing something similar to what Firebug does for HTML with the Inspect button (url...)

Actionscript 3 :: Eliminate Borders On A DataGridColumn In Flex?

Jul 26, 2011

I can't see a way to get rid of certain borders within a DataGrid. I'd like to eliminate a side border on 2 of my columns so that they appear to look like a single column.I'm trying to implement a "clear value" button on each of my DataGrid rows. I was able to have a button show on a custom ItemRenderer from a separate ActionScript file, but I was unsure how to have the button click event propagate to the mxml file where the DataGrid is located. It would be much easier for me to have an extra unresizable column with a 'clear' button.

So, to reiterate: Is there any way to change the border style or eliminate certain borders of a DataGridColumn?

Flex :: Multiple Text Areas With Different Rotation Values Causes Borders To Be Very Wrong?

Nov 5, 2009

If you have two textareas, one has a rotation value besides 0 and the other has no rotation value or a value of 0 and you 'tab' focus from the one w/rotation to the one w/out. The border around the textArea w/out rotation will be rotated. If you set the rotation value of the non-rotated text field to a non-zero number, even 0.01, it fixes the problem, this causes tons of other problems in text rendering though so its not a solution.

I found setting the focusThickness style to 0 removes the border, which is a good solution but not a great one, anybody got a better one? Here is some sample code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
<mx:VBox width="100%" height="100%">
<mx:TextArea id="source" width="100%" fontWeight="bold" fontSize="20" height="50" rotation="5" />
<mx:TextArea id="dest" width="100%" height="50" />
</mx:VBox>

Jquery :: Alternative To Flash Display Element?

Sep 10, 2010

I'm building a website at the moment and in the design it shows a scrollwheel in the form of this example.I've got no problem creating this using something like scrollable or some other similar plugins, however, they don't allow you to click and drag through the images and "flick" them in such a way as the flash example. Do you know of any plugins that allow you to do this, or even know how to modify something like Scrollable to do this?

ActionScript 2.0 :: [cs3] LoadMovie: Objects Extending Beyond Borders

Jan 27, 2009

I'm not much of a web/flash designer, but I need to showcase my print work online - so I apologize foremost for the noob-ness. I tried to search for this, but came up empty. I am loading external swf movies via loadMovie, into my "base" (main) flash file which will essentially be my website. Everything is loading fine.

I have an swf file that when I load (with loadMovie) objects are extending beyond the set stage size of the swf and onto the "main" flash file. This only occurs with objects that are "off" of the stage. For example, I have a background which is larger than the set stage size, when I load the swf, the movie loads up, but it allows the background to extend beyond the stage size. Is there a way to "crop" the flash file? All I need to do is load a movie without "hidden" objects appearing. (I also have checked that in publishing preferences.)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Website Background Image Without Borders

Jun 17, 2010

I'm making my own website on flash cs4 and I really like websites with backgrounds that don't have borders, they just have an image or a design or both that fit the whole inside of the browser window like this website, [URL] is there a way to accomplish this in flash cs4? I know that you can edit the borders in the html embed code for the .swf but even if you put 0px for all the borders, if I go on another computer with different resolution settings or a computer with a bigger monitor and a bigger browser window, borders are still present around the .swf.

ActionScript 2.0 :: How To Accomplish Blob Like Borders Effect

Jan 5, 2004

I was browsing the net and came upon this site, which has a really cool blob-like borders effect. I really wanted to learn how to accomplish this effect, here's what I know as of now:

1. I must have an array of points, connect them using curveTo and fill it. For this I have to use this methods:
createMovieClip, lineStyle, beginFill, moveTo, curveTo, endFill

2. Then I must have a proximity detector for each point, more or less like:
dx = point._x - _xmouse;
dy = point._y - _ymouse;
distance = Math.sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy);

And if the mouse is too close to the point make it move away with a certain velocity (but only if the mouse is moving, if it is still, just make the blob wobble for a while, using an elasticity effect).
point._vx += point._ax;
point._x += point._vx;

Where the acceleration must be a fraction of the distance we calculated before:
k = .2; // example
point._ax = distance * k;

But we must also have damping so we can have the elastic movement, so:
damp = .9; // example
point._vx += point._ax;
point._vx *= damp;
point._x += point._vx;

3. Finally when the mouse is clicked on a blob we must communicate with the others and make them all wobble, by using LocalConnection. How do I make the array with all the points and access them?; how do I impose the proximity detector into each point and make the curveTo's change?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Textfield Borders Disappear When Drop Shadow Is Applied?

Oct 4, 2010

I have some textfields generated from code, and if I apply a drop shadow filter on them, sometimes the right or the bottom part of the textfields' border just disappear.

Code:
_passwordField.filters = [new DropShadowFilter(1, 45, 0, .75, 3, 3, 1, BitmapFilterQuality.HIGH)];

this is the line of code, which is responsible for this bug (is it a bug?) because if I comment it out, the borders render correctly.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Drag Dynamically Loaded Content Beyond Stage Borders

Jul 28, 2010

I have simple file 550 x 450, in it there is one container 400x300, x:75, y:78. In the container I am loading images and there is drag and drop function for them. I also have added mask with size that matches the size of the container because when i load larger images i could move them. Everything is working fine, but If I set scaleX and scaleY to the container image, the drag and drop functionality is not working fine - I can't reach the edges of the picture.

Code:
with ( m_mask.graphics )
{
beginFill( 0x000000 );

[Code].....

It behaves like there is not enough space to move the image right, left, top or down.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Force Draggable / Movable Object To Stay Within SWF Borders?

Oct 13, 2004

I've made a site with small draggable "popup" windows (not actual windows since they are objects in flash..) I can drag em off the scene outside the edge. I've attempted many things.. A adaptation of the collision script found through search.. (on collision it stopped dragging) Worked nice, until you move the mouse real fast, then it can pass right through or partly through and the fact that it's stopdrag. It takes effort to get it from the edge. It's stuck basically.

I fixed it by making the on (press) change frame in a moveclip containing the border.. had a side effect though.. You can now drag the window out from the scene if you repetitively drag it towards the edge. Is there a way to limit a movieclips possible X & Y positions? (in both + & - range to make it a 4 cornered block). I also want the moveclip to keep moving up/down if if hits the right/left edge if you continue dragging it up/down (same with left/right edge also)

I tried the scrip from the "dynamic mask":
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
getlimits = _root.normalpic.getBounds(_root);
if (_root._xmouse>=getlimits.xMin && _root._xmouse<=getlimits.xMax && root._ymouse>=getlimits.yMin && _root._ymouse<=getlimits.yMax) {
this._x = _root._xmouse;
this._y = _root._ymouse;
}}

I changed the size of the "normal pic" and it works lovely.. but it's on enterFrame... and I need to react on on press and on release.. : tried to adapt it but cant figure out how.. and besides the script don't allow movement along the edges (like I described above) and if you move the mouse fast enough the window stops short of the edge..

May be this extremely confusing. Here is a very similar example on how it is done. This is actually very similar to what i want to do. [URL] on this link there is count below which increments you hit the download button.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Borders - Code Works Great In Firefox But Fails Miserably In IE6?

Oct 9, 2009

migrating some of my code snippets over from AS2.I tried reproducing one of my most used bit of code - the dynamic border - in AS3, but I have run into a small problem.

PHP Code:
var sw:int = stage.stageWidth -1;
var sh:int = stage.stageHeight -1;[code].....

So this code works great in Firefox but fails miserably in IE6, Flash Player 9. So my question is does anybody have a workaround that works on IE6, Player 9?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Element Is ITooltippable Vs Element['tooltip']

Oct 25, 2010

I've built a rather robust tooltip class recently that attaches and draws a single tooltip sprite to the root, then uses MOUSE_OVER to detect when it is over a tooltippable object, and shows the appropriate tooltip text. At the moment, I'm ensuring that any elements in my application which wants to take advantage of showing tooltips implement the ITooltippable interface, and expose a public getter, get tooltip().

Flex :: Add Element To Top Of List?

Dec 15, 2011

I've got a spark list that gets dynamically filled.So far the new items appear at the bottom of the list. What I'd like to do is to add them at the top.The items in the list have a unique ID so some kind of sorting mechanism would probably do the trick as the new items have a greater ID than the old ones.What I'd like to avoid is some complex method behind this as I'm working on a mobile platform and the list can get quite big so I need this to be as efficient as possible.The list's data provider is an ArrayList that gets updated using binding.

Flex :: Get The Index Of First Visible Element?

Jan 21, 2011

I have a simple list in Flex that is populated every N seconds by a dataprovider. My goal is to avoid scrolling the list after the dataprovider has been changed.

So, before I populate the list, I save the selectedIndex, and once the dataProvider is filled, I call:

list.selectedIndex = index;
list.scrollToIndex(index);

Trouble is that this moves the selected item of the list to the top. The solution would be to get the index of the first element displayed in the list: but I have no idea on how to get that.
