Actionscript 3 :: Bindable Property Change Event In Flex?

Sep 20, 2011

I've got a component called Box.as that has following two properties, and have their getters & setters defined:

private var _busy:Boolean;
private var _errorMessage:String;

In MXML that uses this component I define it like this:

<components:Box skinClass="skins.components.BoxSkin"
busy="{presenter.boxBusy}"
errorMessage="{presenter.boxErrorMessage}"/>

Where presenter variable is defined here in MXML and a Presenter class has boxBusy and boxErrorMessage variables defined as bindable property change events:

[Bindable(event="propertyChange")]
function get boxBusy():Boolean;
function set boxBusy(value:Boolean):void;

[Code]....

PROBLEM is that whenever I change boxErrorMessage for the presenter, I see the affect in MXML but nothing happens at all when I change boxBusy. Is there something extra I need to do with boolean variable?

Flex :: Watching A Bindable Property?

Sep 8, 2009

In my flex app I have a public bindable property.I want it so that every time the value of that property changes, a function gets triggered. I tried using ChangeWatchers, but it seems those only apply to built-in components like a text box change.i would like to do that same behavior with a property that changes at runtime.

Flex :: Make A Wrapped Property Bindable?

May 20, 2011

I have Class1 with a read-only bindable property called age:

public class Class1 {
private var _age:int;
[Bindable(event="ageChanged"]

[Code]....

Of course the [Bindable] tag there doesn't make sense. But how can I achieve the same effect?

I believe I can dispatch some sort of ageChanged event from Class2 up to Class1 and then have an event handler in Class1 dispatch another local ageChanged event to which I bind Class2's age property.

Flex :: Flash Builder 'Access Of Undefined Property Bindable'

Jun 2, 2011

I have inherited an Adobe AIR application, and am attempting to debug it through Flash Builder 4.5. Within Flash Builder, when I look at one of the MXML files, I see warnings for each use of the [Bindable] tag:[code]And there are no missing semi-colons on the lines preceding each warning as per the suggestion in this blog post.The project is configured to use Flex SDK 3.6.Additionally the file will not load in the designer, with this warning:Design mode: Error during component layout. Choose Design > Refresh to refresh design mode.At runtime I am seeing a blank window - which I assume is the result of the bindings not being triggered. Is this tag not available in Flex SDK 3.6?

Flex :: Components Property Change Event

Sep 28, 2010

I have a custom component on which I have bound an array collection to one of its proeprties: <comp:MyComp id="comp" prop="{images}" /> images is an arraycollection In the components' code I would like to know which event to listen on everytime images updates props. I tried a setter on props but the setter only gets called once when props is first set. I tried the collection event but I get "Update" events sent on top of 'add' and 'remove' events and I would rather not have to manage those. So is there an event(flex or otherwise) that is fired every time a component property is updated by a bindable property?

Flex :: Change The Value Of The Source Property To Destination Property?

Flex :: Catch A ComboBoxes Value Before Change With A Change Event?

Feb 3, 2010

I am displaying a combo box in something of a WYSIWYG preview. I want the user to be able to click on the combo box and see the options inside, but I don't want them to be able to change the value. I tried using preventDefault() on the change event but it doesn't work. I don't want to disable it because I do want the user to be able to "look inside" the dropdown.

So I'm trying to block the change, but can't. My next resort is to change the selected index back to what it was before the change, Is there any way to do this within the scope of a ListEvent.CHANGE event listener?

Current Workaround is to basically re-assign the controls selected item the same way I am defining the selected item when I originally build it (a default selection). So a user sees their change then it immediately changes back to the default selection.

Flex :: Combobox Not Updating With Bindable Data

Flex :: React To Change On A Static Property?

Jun 1, 2009

I'm re-writing an MXML item renderer in pure AS. A problem I can't seem to get past is how to have each item renderer react to a change on a static property on the item renderer class. In the MXML version, I have the following binding set up on the itemenderer:instanceProperty=callInstanceFunction(ItemRenderer.staticProperty)What would be the equivalent way of setting this up in AS (using BindingUtils, I assume)?PDATE:So I thought the following wasn't working, but it appears as if Flex is suppressing errors thrown in the instanceFunction, making it appear as if the binding itself is bad. indingUtils.bindSetter(instanceFunction, ItemRenderer, "staticProperty");However, when instanceFunction is called, already initialized variables on the given instance are all null, which was the cause of the errors referenced above.

Flex :: ChangeWatcher Not Firing On Bound Property Change?

Sep 30, 2010

On creation complete my parent component executes an "init" function which simply sets public bindable variables in child components. I'd like the child components to watch these variables and upon being set use them. However, for some reason the ChangeWatcher is not firing with the change of the variable. Below is my code;

Parent Component

Flex :: Data Binding - Update Multiple Bindable Properties In Specific Order?

Apr 20, 2011

I have a situation where I need to update a DropDownList's dataProvider and selectedItem in a specific order. See the following code ...

<s:DropDownList id="dropDownList"
dataProvider="{someDataProvider}"
selectedItem="{someSelectedItem}" />

In my case, some user interaction produces new values for the bindable variables "someDataProvider", and "someSelectedItem". However, when flex renders the DropDownList, the control's selected value is empty.

The reason for this is that the DropDownList's "selectedItem" property gets bound before the "dataProvider" property. The "dataProvider" needs to be bound first for "selectedItem" to be valid, this is because the new "selectedItem" points into the new "dataProvider".

what is the best practice for updating bindable properties in a specific order? I've come up with a few ways (e.g. using a valueCommit handler), but I wanted to see what the community had to say.

Flex :: Disable/enable A Group Of Components (or Change A Property)

Mar 24, 2012

How can I enable or disable a group of components in flex (flash builder 4)?

For example, if I have a window with several fields, I want to disable them based on the users permissions.

I know I can add the enabled="true" or "enabled="false", and I can also use enabled="{writeAccessVar}"

However, I am looking for more ideas, as I might have more than one group of fields on the screen, or more complicated user permissions.

For example, I will currently have one field with write access, the other fields on the screen read only for a certain user level.

For a higher level user, all fields are writable. Lower level, all are read-only.

Flex :: Get Property Values From Shared Object In Client's Load Event?

Mar 5, 2010

I am using shared object to share data between two users. First user connect to shared object and set some value in shared object. Please consider that second user has not connected with the shared object yet.Now when second user connects to the server and try to get that property set by first user, he could get shared object but could not get properties of Shared object set by first user. I observed few times that Second user can get these properties within "Sync" event between two users. But I would like to get these values for Second user in any stage (i.e. in load event etc.). Whenever Second user tries to get the property of Shared object, the object will reset the actual property value and then return reset value.

1) Is there any way to get all the properties of shared object before sync event called, as I want to get it immediately when second user connect to the application and perform next task based on the values stored in shared object.

2) Is it possible for second user to check whether any property has been set by first user? So that second user can use the property instead of reset it.

Flex Visual Change Event

Oct 10, 2009

Is there not an event that occurs only when there has been some sort of visual change to an object. So for example if it were a video or animated object it would be firing as often as EnterFrame. However, if it were some sort of input control just sitting there doing nothing visually, then the event wouldn't fire until the visual state changed as a result of some sort of user input for example.

Actionscript 3 :: Flex Text Change Event?

Apr 8, 2010

I'm tracking how fast does the text of a textArea change. If it changes faster than 500 ms then i don't want to do anything, but if it doesn't change in 500 ms, i want to call a method.I tried like this:

public function textchangeListener(e : Event):void
{
if(((new Date).getTime() - changeTime)>500)[code].....

This method is the event handler for text change.But the problem is, if it changes only under 500 ms and after that it doesn't change, then my method won't be called. I make this for a better performance, so the prepareText() is called only when the user stops typing for 500 ms.
