My datagrid component appears to be broken. When I drag one out onto the stage, its just a square. Nothing in it. Just a square... Then, when I tried to programmatically add it to the stage, using an example straight off the docs, it throws some errors:[URL]
[Code]..
This sounds very bad, especially considering that I need to use the DataGrid to complete my program. What am I doing wrong and how can I fix it? This is AS3, right in frame 1 of the main timeline.
I've added an eventListener to the COLLECTION_CHANGE event that is fired when the grid is finished resorting the items in its dataProvider, after the user clicks on a column header:MyType (myDataGrid.dataProvider).addEventListener(CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE,onDataGridResort);
it seems GMap AF Component is definitely broken and the google maps flash interface at google code, is broken too. looks like there are only two options here:
- move to AS3 (in what spare time shall i learn it?)
- open a shadowbox with the map (rather than pop-up or new window)
I am trying to create a DataGrid component with AS and it's not showing up. Code: import mx.controls.*; createClassObject(DataGrid, "dgTalent", 0, {_x: 0, _y: 0}); dgTalent.columnNames = ["Character", "Allowed"]; dgTalent.addItem({Character: "Affliction", Allowed: "Affliction"}); It's still really basic right now, but I have to keep it that way until I can at least get the darn thing to show up.
I have an SQL database setup which contains Herbal Information such as CommonName, LatinName, MedicalUse etc, and need to display the information in a Flash DataGrid Component. I also have the corresponding PHP script to connect, retrieve, add and delete items from the database. Although I am familiar with Flash in a design sense I have limited experience using Action Scripts and am unable to complete the connection myself.
I've created a "Poster Maker" in Flex. The text part of the poster is written inside a TLF-based RichEditableText component. Users can choose the font for the text using a ComboBox which lists all the device fonts on the computer.
All works well, until Chinese users try to apply a Chinese font and it doesn't work. Here's a screencast of the problem (just over 1 min long). In it you can see I can write Chinese in WordPad and apply the two different Chinese fonts I have on the PC without any problems. When I switch to the Flex app and try the same it doesn't work.I'm at a loss as to why this won't work. The change event of the font picker ComboBox looks like this:
var txtLayFmt:TextLayoutFormat = editor.getFormatOfRange(null, editor.selectionAnchorPosition, editor.selectionActivePosition );
[code]....
Where selectedItem.font is the fontname of the font and is what you see as the label in the ComboBox.
I'm new to Flex/AS3. I've attached an example line chart below. I want to know if this type of graph can be created using the standard line-series chart available in Flex (Flash Builder 4.6), or whether there's something drawn below that is non-standard and would therefore require some rather involved customization. The key features are:
-Different line styles and colors (dashed, dot-dash, solid, thick, thin, opacity) -Placement of units (y-axis "seconds" and x-axis "Hz") -x-axis zoom/pan control bar below graph (move knobs in and out to set x-axis min and max plotted values) -Log x-axis scale, linear y-axis scale -Data Tip (or, some call it tool tip, not shown below) -SI units for x- and y-axis tick labels.
My guess is that everything should be pretty standard to accomplish using Adobe's built-in charting (with the possible exception of item 6, see below). Is that a good assumption?I'm particularly concerned about the x- and y-axis tick labels (item 6). For example, the x-axis tick marks as a number would be:1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000, 1000000, 10000000 but they need to be replaced with SI units, where k=1000, and M=1000000, so the corresponding marks would be (replacing the numbers above with the strings below)"1", "10", "100", "1k", "10k", "1M", "10M".The same goes for the y-axis, where p represents 1e-12, and n represents 1e-9.I can create an algorithm that accepts a number and outputs a string to do the SI unit conversion. But given that, is there a way to easily manage the tick mark labels to replace the default numbers with such strings?
I have defined the datagrid as followsmx:DataGrid id="dg" width="100%" height="100%" >n the part i am trying to get the details from the database and setting the dataProvider for the DataGrid as follows.
var arrayContent:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection(); for(var i:int=0;i<assetClassDetails.length;i++) {
I'm looking for resources on making an interactive charting component in Adobe Flash without use of Flex (or, minimal use). That is, starting "from scratch" with Flash and ActionScript 3.0. Is there recommended reading? Perhaps a good recent book on the subject, or a detailed blog article, or an open source project to look at? I'm interested in the development process, and specific design patterns (for example, extending Sprite as the logical base class for your component).
i'm using flash CS4 and i'm wondering how to place a component into a DataGrid.I was able to grab this script from the live docs on how to place an image to a DataGrid but I want to replace it with a button.
Trouble with my DataGrid component (aDg), i want to tell it to got a fixed height, and then have a scrollbar when the lines into the Datagrid are biger than its height, but with this code, it doesn't work, the grid continues to get bigger without scrollbar :
Code: myDP= new DataProvider(fileXML); aDg.dataProvider = myDP;
I'm trying to use AS3_Shim in my alchemy code but it doesn't seem to be working.It always returns a NULL function pointer. There don't seem to be any examples of AS3_Shim's use, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.Here is some example code:
For my project I am using the following:FlashDevelop 3.3.4 RTMFlash Pro CS 5 (libraries only, no code)Some time ago we started using TLFTextfields. One of the things I had to do was include the tlfruntime.swc file from the Adobe Flash CS 5 folder in the FlashDevelop project. Note that I copied this file to the project folder and included it, I didn't just include the file straight from the CS5 path. I have since been given a new computer that has Flash CS 5.5. I recompiled one of my swf libraries in CS 5.5, and now when I run the program, I get:Illegal override of createTextLine in flashx.textLayout.compose.ComposeStateI figure the tlfruntime.swc being included in the FlashDevelop project is out of date and needs to be updated with the one from CS 5.5. So I copied the tlfruntime.swc from the CS 5.5 path, include it in the FlashDevelop project (instead of the older file), but now I get this:
Illegal override of softKeyboardActivatingHandler infl.text.container.TLFContainerController.Can anyone assist with what else I need to do to get TLFTextfields working again in CS 5.5?UPDATE: I have updated FlashDevelop to 4.0.1 RTM, and now I get this error:Illegal override of createGeometry in flashx.textLayout.elements.FlowGroupElement.
my flash trace has broken, both in flash IDE and flex - fdt4, when i run any project, the console output looks like what I pasted below.And it just goes on and on, what is this and how do i get back to tracing properly? I think this emerged when i installed firebug
Wasn't sure where to post this one as I'm not sure where the error is occuring.I have datagrid components being populated from a mySQL DB using php. The grids exist on external swfs being loaded into a parent clip.The datagrids populate locally no problem when tested individually and when loaded into the parent clip. They have also been working from the server in previous days, but I was doing final tests checks on some recent final changes and now things aren't working.obviously I went back and ran through what I changed but nothing really applied to the grids.Codes are below
Code: //DISPLAY ON TAP BEERS var myOnGridArray:Array = [];
I am trying to figure out how to make the datagrid component have alternating row colors.I have poured over the manual but cannot seem to fine a property to support this
I have a DataProvider object which loads an XML object during instantiation. I set my datagrid.dataProvider to the DataProvider object. There are 13 columns, and approximately 40 rows.
Scrolling the datagrid, and resizing columns has alot of lag. Is this to be expected when using the DataGrid component with larger datasets?
I want to have some sort of a list, which will contain movieclips (or thumbnails) ... is this possible to implement using the List component or DataGrid component?
This DataGrid Components is giving me a massive headache. It's a massive pain to customize.I do some work for a graphic designer, who has given me a picture of an element which I'm to implement in an existing AS2-based Flash project (targeted flash version is not important). Here's the picture for reference:
Trying to make the default DataGrid work like this I'm quickly figuring out is nearly impossible. Firstly, I don't think it's possible to make alternating rows fade out like that. I'm willing to accept the fact I'm doomed to solid-color alternating rows for now. My main problem at the moment is that I can't figure out how to change the size of the header. I need a larger font for the header than the items, and I need the size of the header itself to expand. Neither of which I can figure out how to do.
So does anyone know a) how to change the headers on the DataGrid, or b) where to find a more flexible (in terms of skinning) DataGrid component for AS2 which is cheap (preferably free)?
I have a flash website template, Fla File as well as all the source files etc, I have some questions if anyone would be kind enough to help. I am new to Fla files so not sure what to do.
There is some text I managed to edit ok, but others I could not, it appears as if they started as text and have been broken apart and made into a shape? when i click you can only highlight each letter, but not change them. There are two of these, one flies in from left, the other from right.
way to show a jpeg image while a Flash file is loading or better, if they don' t have Flash?
Problem is that when people go to a site and they don't have Flash and can't install it (ie: iPhone), they can't see phone numbers, address etc. which is why that came there. It would sure easier to push Flash if there was a way to have an alternate image to view.
