Is it bad practice/design to nest components inside components using Flex 4? Should I simply be creating components and inserting them into my main application as below, or doesn't it matter?

Project. To create a flash box that allows a visitor to enter 1) email 2) phone number 3) preferred method of contact. Then they can hit submit. That information is sent to a php which sends an email to the administrator letting them know to contact someone. Reason it is done in flash. I have a "tab" graphic appear and in the tab is the entry form. When they hit submit the information is sent and the tab lowers out of site then raises back up with a confirmation message that the message was sent.
Problem: The tabs work in annimation. I know that the code works to send information to php and that the php works to send the email. But, my issue is with the GUI. When the flash is rendered, the field boxes do not show up. See image below. Setup: To get the fields to move with the tab I have them as separate objects within the symbol of the tab that moves.

how to get this to work, but I've finally gotten Loadvars working dynamically. However, now I need to take the "avatar" variable and use it to populate a list component. I keep reading dozens of different ways to do it - turn your variable into an array in Flash, etc. What is the best method?

I have bought some flash components that used to work in Flash 8 and CS3, but suddenly they do not appear in my components list within Flash CS4 ! I have reinstelled them with components exchange and apparently they are successfully installed , but once I enter Flash CS4 there are not.
View 3 RepliesThis might seem a silly question but I am sitting here for a few hours wondering how I could change the text color for my components.
For example I have a DropDown Component and I change its skin (all the states) and put in a dark skin (I dragged the component on the stage and edited it). The text on the component, however is black and cannot be read. How could I change the component's text to white.
why are those "values" input and component windows so badly designed, not resizable (well kind of albeit terribly badly) etc... This is an eyesore and a practical pain in the a**. Seriously Adobe... all these talks about "accessibility" etc... shouldn't it start in your own software ?!? You can fix this it's 2010.

View 9 RepliesI've got some dynamic text fields that have tabindex properties on stage.
There are some V2 components in the swf as well, so there is an instance of the FocusManager running.
I've got a pause button that I use to pause the playback of some other animations that are playing.
When I click the pause button I would like to have the focus go away from text entry fields (if they have it).
Is there a way to tell the FocusManager that nothing should have focus?
Selection.setFocus(null)
FocusManger.setFocus(null)
None of those work.
There is also an off-stage dummy text field that is used to capture focus for some other stuff in this file, but that doesn't work either.
The content that gets paused is variable and could have all kinds of designs and layouts, so having it respond to some kind of pause event is out. I need it not to be aware of the pause state. I just need the pause state to grab focus.
I have a dozen different custom components in my flex app. I want to use an external xml config file to load the components at run-tine. Can someone tell me whats the best way to architect this? I want to load these components and add dataProviders and event liseners to them at runtime.
View 1 RepliesI am mostly intersted in modyfing the components appearance in Flash (CS4) than pulling an swf file which I could include in swf-lib. Right now I am kind of forced to make it via movie clip export it, and build functionality in Haxe.Which as you imagine is not handy and timeconsuming (especially that fl.controls used to work for me very well, I barely had to modify any mechanics, sometimes was just adding functionality).

so I am trying to drag around some images in a canvas. I am adding eventlisteners to the components and calling startDrag() and stopDrag() to pick them up and stuff:
component.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, component.startDrag)
The problem is that it is selecting the image at its (0,0) location and not where I initially click on it. So there's a sudden "jump" when I click on the image. It is not smooth.
I noticed that startDrag() has two default parameters, one of them is lockCenter and it is default to false. Maybe do I set it equal to true somehow? (I don't know how to pass arguments to my second parameter in addeventlistener)
Another question: if I want to add more conditions to it, like make a new function that uses component.startDrag(), how do I pass the component to this function while adding event listener to it at the same time? for example: I want to do:
component.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, some_other_function);
where some_other_function uses component.startDrag();
I have a component

I am trying to wrap some text with a component but can not figure out how to align them correctly. Here is what I am looking for:If you have not entered your credentials, enter your credentials by clicking Set Credentials.
The "If you have not entered your credentials, enter your credentials by clicking" is a string.The "Set Credentials" is a button so it can be clicked by the user.I tried putting the string in a textarea which wrapped the text but could not get the button to horizontally align with the text. I also tried adding them both with Tile, then I do not get proper wrapping.
I am using IFrame and adding it dynamically, and it hides a new Alert.show and a previously made TitleWindow.How do I arrange it to go back or to make that Alert or window on top of all ?

I'm used to item renderers in Flex but inexperienced with Flash AS3 components.I want to create a List that renderers items like this:
1) a slider
2) a couple of text fields that my designer can place and style as he likes
It's a survey form. I expect to grab the _listData.owner and dispatch the user inputs and bubble them up to the form.
1) drag a list onto the stage
2) create a symbol in the library with the base class of com.blah.skins.renderers.SurveyItemRenderer
3) Export this class as SurveyItemRenderer
4) set the list's cellRenderer style to SurveyItem renderer
5) give the list data to show
I tried using CellRenderer, but the class seems to reject being associated with a symbol (and I could not find any examples of CellRenderer being used that way), so SurveyItemRenderer implements ICellRenderer.When I run it, other library symbols and graphics shows up in the renderer--WITH THE EXCEPTION of the slider. Other Flash components that I put on the stage do not show up either, until you roll over (Button), or if they have text in the them (Label). Slider never shows up.
Components will show up on the stage, just not in the SurveyItemRenderer. WHY NOT? I feel like I'm missing something basic. Here is the class, minimal because I'm still testing:
Code:
public class SurveyItemRenderer extends MovieClip implements ICellRenderer
{
protected var _listData:ListData;
protected var _data:Object;
protected var _selected:Boolean;
