I have a TextInput control which has a search functionality for the people in the system.It works fine. All I need is to style it in such a way that, it will be having search image on the right, which when clicked, will search. Its actually for look and feel part of the application, which will make the search box look much better.
It is exactly similar behavior implemented in search box embedded in Firefox.
I have an application which displays employee information. If the user opening the detailed employee information page is not authorized to make changes I set the TextInput to disabled. Some users are reporting rendering issues with this. The TextInput's text value does not appear inside the box but is misaligned and is outside of the component. You can see the screenshow below of the disabled ID column where the numbers which are supposed to be in the TextInput box are far off to the right.

View 1 RepliesI want to modify the Flex 3 TextInput control to accept a tab character as valid input (The app allows the user to enter an arbitrary delimiter string for file output formatting, and tab is a common use case). However, clearly in the default implementation the tab key changes the form focus away from the selected control.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to have a popup window with an immediately editable TextInput. This means that the user should be able to type inside the TextInput once the popup is displayed.
The problem is that I can't focus on the textInput. What happens is that when pressing a key for the first time, no text is inserted, only after a second key is pressed does the component gain focus and the user is able to type. For instance, typing "test" once the popup opened results in "est" being displayed...
For some reason the component only gains focus when the user explicitly clicks on it or types something. Programmaticaly setting the focus does not work.

I need to handle diagraphs and then convert them on the fly to the proper unicoderepresentation. For example when the user types in:SxMy app needs to replace it with:ow, I've been able to do the replacement no problem. The issue though is that once I've done the replacement, the cursor goes to the beginning of the textbox rather than the end.As I'm trying to update the user's text on the fly, this obvious doesn't work.

View 1 RepliesI'm using a lineseries chart, but it gets fairly slow to re-render when I add a new point when the total # of points is ~1200 points. Granted, this is running on a fairly slow PC (~600 MHz). Reading the Flex documentation on how to speed up rendering (turning off dropshadows, turning off filterData, etc...) doesnt seem to help. I bound my chart to an ArrayCollection (rather than the array I used before which I manually updated) and it doesnt seem to be any faster. Adobe's documentation seems to have me believe that the Chart looks only at what changed since the last time it was updated, but i'm only adding one point!
If their info is correct, why does it take significantly longer (5 seconds) to update one point when I have ~1200 points then when I only have 2 points (instantaneous)? FYI - When I add a new point to my ArrayCollection, I have to do a "AC.refresh()" to get the DataBinding to pick up the new data.

View 3 RepliesI have a component that has a sub-component they both use a shared variable from the model. The shared variable needs to be set by the parent component before it can be used by the child component. I did like this in the parent component:
<mx:Canvas
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
...
creationComplete="group1_completeHandler(event)" >
[Code]....
But for some reason when the code inside myCustomComponent tries to use myVariable for the first time I get a "null" object error. This means I guess that the child component gets rendered before the group1_activateHandler gets called and consequently myVariable gets set.
What should I do to ensure that the parent container initializes the variable before the child component gets created?

View 1 RepliesI'm currently upgrading an app from Flex 4.1 to 4.5.We've noticed that the Arial font is rendered differently between the two versions when used at small sizes.Here's a simple app example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"[code]....
When run against the 2 different sdks, here's an image of the font rendering we get:
Note that in 4.5 the font looks slightly squashed.
What's the cause of this, and how do we resolve it?

View 2 Repliesi have a datagrid which contains a number of itemrenderers, it is populated each time a user does a search. Is there an event which can tell me when the datagrid has completed rendering all new rows and item renderers?
I need to trigger an event once everything has been created so that i can resize then container which holds the grid.
Currently im using DataGridEvent.HEADER_RELEASE and CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE events to manage this however the problem with these events is that they get called as each new row is being added to the datagrid.

I have an mx:TileList which is bound to an ArrayCollection.I have some code that displays a "Loading..." message before modifying the ArracyCollection and some code after that hides the loading message.For small data sets, it works fine. However, I noticed with an array size of about 50~ and larger, flex will hide my loading message before the TileList is finished rendering the new data and I'm left with a blank screen for an odd second.Is there an event I can listen to that is called after the TileList is finished re-rendering? Code looks something like this:
loading_message.visible = true;
for each (var x:Object in new_data) {
tile_list_data.append(x); // bound to my_tile_list component[code]..........
In this example, loading_message appear, disappear, and then the flex app will lag before finally revealing the updated TileList.
The dataProvider for my grid contains several objects. Some of which have a Number value, and some Boolean values under field 'value' (other fields are used in other columns).I would like to be able to render differently for each data-type, i.e. have a checkBox for booleans, and a label for numbers. Furthermore, I would like to be able to edit these fields differently, unchecking the checkbox for booleans, and using a numericStepper for Numbers.
Just FYI, I decided to go with AdvancedDataGrid, to take advantage of the styleFunction property, nothing more..Tried to used spark-states, which didn't seem to work as I'm using an AdvancedDataGrid. I'm not sure what the problem was.
Beginner Question: I am using the IFrame Component for Flex in Flex 4. The code below works when it is put at the top of the scrolling area. However, if I put it where it below the viewable area it will not render. I am a complete beginner to Flex. The interesting thing is when I resize the window while the HBox is in view, the Iframe will load. But scrolling to it will not. Below is my code. I have made sure everything is visible=true but it seems like I need to add a listener or somehow trick it to think that the window has been resized to get it to render. Anyone with an idea how to fix this?
