Flex :: Methods Of Creating Pivot Or Tabular Reports?
May 16, 2011
Looking for some ideas, strategies, tools, etc. on creating reports from Flash Builder / Flex 4. I have a flex application that allows create/read/update/delete of client information from a back-end database. It uses web services (zend amf -> mongo db or mysql). I already have the client data IN flex via the web service as a collection for example. A user requests the ability to generate a report - to display a list of clients under a certain age in a tabular excel style grid (datagrid most likely).
It will be sorted and subtotaled by a demographic such as "insurance type". Ideally the user would like to be able to select the insurance types allowed on the report (or in the datagrid/pivot table). I know one option would be to present the user with a series of check boxes or a multi-select list to choose the insurance types. Then, present them with a data grid or advanced data grid component to display the 'report'. What other techniques, options or components are available / have people used?

I'm currently building an application that is presenting tabular (fetched from a webservice) data and have squirted it into a datagrid - seemed the most obvious way to present it on screen. I've now come across a few limitations in the datagrid and wonder how I might move forward. The data is logically split into groups and I would like to be able to have subheadings in the grid whenever I move to a new group. I would like to be able to highlight individual cells based on their content relative to other values in the row - ie highlight the cell with the highest value in the row. Is this possible with the standard datagrid?

I have a web app that prints reports, most are just one page, or two, so I just create a component that shows the data and print it.
But I have this one report that can have thousands of lines, with a custom format, Flash will slow down with this.
Is it posible to print it without showing the actual data on screen? or is there a component to print reports with custom format?

What if you have methods you want to use in your project, that really have no need of a class, or in other words, there is no need for an "object" associated with it. It's not going to have member variables, so why bother making it a class?
for example,
I want to create a randomNumber method, takes two numbers, low high, returns a random between or equal.
Originally in my code I had a very top level class i just called globalLibrary that extended movie clip, i put my randonNumber method there. Then every class in the project extended that. I got the method scoped properly, but to me it looks like a hack.
For example, the most basic functionality in flash like +, even = , trace, etc. Are these also methods defined in some class that we are extending? Or are they methods that have no object associated since that would seem to make just as much sense.
why can't I just create a file of methods, and import that file and have access to these methods?

Has anyone used BIRT (eclipse.org/birt) with flex or flash builder 4 to display reports to a user? I believe it has the ability to display reports as a web page via php or similar, so I am guessing one way to implement it would be to display the BIRT generated pages in flex inside a web control.how you used BIRT in conjunction with your flash app?

I'm trying to create a function that I can access throughout the program without having to rewrite the entire code each time. I know how to do this in Java, but I'm unfamiliar with the syntax in actionscript.
For those that know Java, I'm looking for something similar to using
public int something(int a, int b){

i have created an object called plane with the bellow methods. I have not defined them anyway on my script file but i am curious to find out why flash does not respond by giving me any errors telling me that the methods i.e pitch to say that they have not been defined? This is something that i would have expected flash to tell me. This results in a successful build and as a result i am able to still run the file. Why does it not notify me of any erross even though clearly they have not been declared anywhere i my script.?
var plane:Object = new Object();
plane.pitch = 0;
plane.roll = 5;
plane.yaw = 5;
I am also using FlashDevelop

Working on some new projects using flash to create the entire site. Now I have some tabular data I need to present in this site, and was trying to think up ways to place the data without drawing each and every freaking table.
Obviously I could spend thousands and get macromedia flex running on our servers, but that is not viable right now....

What's a good way to display tabular (row and column) data? A TextField for every cell seems excessive, especially with lots of data and scrolling.

I've been looking to submit some bug reports regarding CS5.5 Pro and there just isn't an option in the "Report a Bug/Feature Request" form. WHY not?? I paid for CS5.5 and autoformat breaks my code, but there's no way to report it.

I am trying to rotate a symbol about the y-axis, 45 degrees one direction, then back to center, then 45 degrees the other direction. Seems like a relatively simple task, except here is what happens.
Here is the object with no rotation:
Here is the object rotated exactly 45 degrees:
And here is the object rotated exactly -45 degrees:
I need the object to rotate the same as it did the first time but in reverse, otherwise "45" and "-45" are generally worthless numbers to refer to. Is it something to do with the pivot point? I made sure the registration point was in the center when I created the symbol. It doesn't seem to be pivoting the object around the center though. How do I rotate about the y-axis using a pivot point that is actually in the center and gives the same (but opposite) effect when rotating it one way versus the other?

I've read in the flex developer guide that you sometimes need to override one of the lifecycle methods like: commitProperties and updateDisplayList but I've written a few flex apps without ever needing to implement them.when do I need to override them?

Like java, you can specify that method you are calling throws certain exception.
For e.g.- public void getListOfAssessments() throws SQLException;
So, is there any way we can achieve this in ActionScript (Flex)?

I am trying to load a swf(as3) into another As3 Swf with the Movieclip loader. After loading however Loader.width/loader.content.width returns an exaggerated value than the actual width of the swf being loaded. Any pointers on where to begin looking for the discrepancy?
More Details (if it helps)
The swf being loaded has UI components like dropdowns, input boxes and combo boxes (its a Form to fill up), and a coded one-time tween. When the child MC loads into the parent movieclip, the Loader.width value returned is exaggerated by about 28 pixels (although the height remains the same). Loader.content.width also returns a 28 pixel exaggerated value. The Exaggerated value is more than even the stage width of the child MC. The extra ~30 px are upsetting subsequent code in the parent movie to scale and center the loaded swf.
update:
stage.stageWidth returns the correct Value.Code used in the parent MC, to load external SWF:
private var deadURL = "child.swf";
private var deadReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(deadURL);
private var deadLoader:Loader = new Loader();[code].....

I am still very new to Actionscript and have an okay working knowledge of Flex. I am working on an AIR application that runs a SQLite database underneath. The database is only 3 tables (projects, items and types). I was wondering if Actionscript best practices are to use a data access object or layer to store all of my database functions or to just run them inline as needed. I would assume an access layer would be best for interacting with the database for usability, but I can't seem to find much documentation for SQLite in AIR.

How would you go about calling the public properties and methods of a SWF you load in actionscript?
I have been using stackoverflow for years to answer my programming questions so I wanted to give back by writing a guide to an issue I had a lot of trouble figuring out. This is my first user guide so tell me if there is anything I can do to improve it.
