I'm trying to access a CheckBoxList component that is defined in a nextLevelRenderer of a FlexDataGrid. How do you do this?
I thought I could use getLevelForItem( arg ) and pass in the selectedItem for the FlexDataGrid, but I'm not getting anywhere with it.
In addition, is there a good place for flexicious tutorials online? I can't find anything.
how can i access for example, the text of a Input text on the stage, from a movieclip?I need that value from the input text inside my movieclip's actionscript.(Actionscript 3)
View 8 RepliesI am a Flex developer and now I have started learning the fundamentals of iOS, Objective-C, and accessing server-side data. Most of the Flex projects I do are mainly in accessing server-side data with Flex from .Net, Python, and Java since we all know data access in Flex is possible only via 3 ways: Http, Web-service, and Remote Object. Out of these 3, Remote Object is the most reliable, fast and handy.ion is, do we have remote object concept in iOS? I mean is there any interface (like blaze DS, weborb) available on the market forserializing/deserializing Objective-C object type to C#, Java, and python or vice versa?
View 57 RepliesI have an xml class that loads xml data, I need to access the data from another class. I have imported the xml classinto the new class and created a new instance of it. However when I try to access the xml data it is coming back as null. I understand this is almost certainly because when it is called the xml data hasn't completed it's load. How can I get round this?

I have have a problem loading and accessing data from a value object in my new project.. I load an xml file via a service, which contains title and locations of asset files, I need to be able to access the location of an asset file by specifying the title and retrieiving it from a value object.. I'm using the Robotlegs framework, here's an example of the xml:-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<files id ="xmlroot">
<file title="css_shell" location = "css/shell.css" />

After reading data from XML source I like to be able to show one random item from data whenever, say, clicked a button. I think I can accomplish this by storing the data into an array and use it from the array. I would like to learn if possible to do it directly from xml without storing it into another array.
var myXMLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myXMLLoader.load(new URLRequest("XML_NOTES.xml"));
myXMLLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);

How do I access an array inside an .swf that is loaded using loadMovie?
this.createEmptyMovieClip("controlpanel", 999);

I have stored some basic data in a custom class, imported it into a project, and compiled it into an swf. Now, I want to import that swf into the library of a new, entirely separate flash project, and access the data from the original custom class inside that imported swf.

I'm trying to load data from an external textfile, called "config_flash.txt". It works perfectly if applying the fetched data is done within the same function where the loading is done. However, I would like to use the fetched variables in other parts of the script.
Here's what works:
Actionscript Code:
var varLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(new URLRequest("config_flash.txt"));varLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,

So, basically I want the variables/values defined inside the function to be available anywhere in the script. The error that the second code snippet causes is as follows: "1120: Access of undefined property text1/text2".
I am working on a Flash game that uses 2D polygon collision. It seems to me that I could sketch the 2D collision around my objects using the pen tool, and make it invisible by putting it on a separate guide layer.

View 1 RepliesI have a cs3(AS3) datagrid component and I'm tracking which row the user has selected by using ListEvent.ITEM_CLICK to listen for a selection and then event.rowIndex in the handler function and using this index no to select data from the array which was used with the dataProvider. The problem is this. If the user re-sorts the rows using the column headers, this resets the rowIndex (ie the first entry is always row 0) and so this no longer relates back to my array. Is there a way to directly access some or all of the data in the row the user selects?
View 3 RepliesI'm wondering if it's possible to access a shared object's data (once it's been changed) without reloading the swf. Specifically, I have two swfs: one changes the data in the so and lets the second swf "know" via a localconnection. I have a function in the second swf that fires via the local connection.[code]This function looks for the new value however it doesn't show the updated value in my textfield unless I refresh the browser. Thoughts?
View 1 RepliesI've created several textFields, writing:
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0;i<=10;i++){
this.createTextField("texto"+i,i+1,100,100,100,100);
};
That's O.K. But I can't put a text in them... when I write
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0;i<=10;i++){
["texto"+i].text = 15;
};
It simply doesn't work!
Once a button is clicked in a submenu called SelectChar(a menu class extending my menu base class), it dispatches a custom event carrying an array of variables. This event is then listened for in the main Document Class called Engine, where the value of the passed variable can be used. For testing purposes im only passing 1 arguement in the array.
my Error when trying to trace the passed variable in isolation "trace(e.arg[0]);": 1119: Access of possibly undefined property arg through a reference with static type flash.events:Event.
Okay, i hope that made sense... heres the relevent code:

I began with a class for a movie clip rollover function FigureRollOver. It works marvellously. Three things happen:
1) it loads XML from a file "mod1_fig1.xml" and uses another class, XMLMember, to retool the scoping of the XML so that I can get at it
2) an onload call inside of XMLMember calls the myOnLoad function and transfers the XML into an array.
3) so long as the array is finished building, rolling over a movie clip attaches a new movie clip with the rollover text in it.But I don't want all those functions in one because I need it to be more dynamic, starting with being able to load any old xml file instead of just "mod1_fig1.xml", plus it seems lik overbuilding to have all of that in one class, so I've separated out the loading of the XML and building of the array into its own class, FigureXMLLoader. FigureRollOver is then left to just attach the rollover with text in it, extracted from the array built by the new class.
Problem is, though the array builds inside FigureXMLLoader, I can't figure out how to make it available outside the class. I know that I'm constructing things in the wrong order, and that the array needs to be somehow built inside the class function to be available, but I can't figure out how to do that. A cruddy work-around is to put a function call at the end of the building of the array, which calls yet ANOTHER function on the main timeline of my .swf to put the array I've just built into a new variable.This works, but it's messy. It seems like I should be able to have one line of script in the .swf that generates an array on the main timeline (or just a public array) which I can then access from my FigureRollOver class:
var myRollOvers:Array = new FigureXMLLoader("mod1_fig1.xml");
Here is FigureXMLLoader (see comments in the code for more details) which obviously does not return an array as it is, because of all the working around I've had to do. Note the "testing" variable, which can be traced from the main timeline of the .swf, but I will get "not what I want" because of course the array hasn't been built yet, and never will be, inside of the declaration as it is. How do I get it in there so I can return an array?
I want to extend the dictionary class. Everything works so far except that in some of my methods that need to reference the dictionary's content I make a call like:
this[ key ]
It doesn't like that. It just tells me that there's no property 'key'. Is there a way to way to access the data within this class?Also, I'm using an integer for the key.
Edit: I've found that the same behavior happens when you extend Array.
var myArray : Array = new Array();
trace( myArray[ 0 ] );
var myArrayExtender : ArrayExtender = new ArrayExtender();[code]....
Where in this case, myArray returns "undefined" and myArrayExtender throws error 1069. ArrayExtender is an empty class that extends Array and calls super() in the constructor.

Ok, here's my requirement in short-I have a datagrid that is updated every time data update is received.

View 1 RepliesIn flex 3 I have a hierarchical data structure. I would like to display the content of it in a tree. My problem is that I have nodes which data calculated from children nodes. How to structure the hierarchy to make automatic changes to those parent nodes, if their children's data changed? For example:
Every node has a warning flag. If some of the children warning flag changed to true, then the parent warning flag should change automatically set to true. A node integer field is the sum of the children integer fields, and if any of the children changes, the parent integer field "calculates" the sum immediately. Is there an easy solution wit good structuring changes happen automatically, or I have to make some custom functions?
