Actionscript 3 :: Make Sure Flex Components Are Loaded At Beginning
Dec 29, 2009
How can I make sure all the components, even those that are not going to be visible at the beginning, load right away when I start my application?I have an application with a ViewStack whose visible child is set via a sidebar menu. Say the ViewStack has two children, A and B. A is initially visible, whereas B is not. How can I make sure they both load at the beginning, so that when I change to B I don't have to wait for it to load?

I'd like to make a series of components into a solid, consistently repeatable object. For example, suppose I have a "notification" template that I want to add to a notifications area every time something new happens. This template includes an icon (Image), text (label), and some space between these two things.
I want to take a template like that and make it so I can invoke it with a function like add_notification("icon", "text"). How would I go about doing that?

I have a vertical tab-bar with 4 items with different sub tabs. All the four items use data from a single xml file, which is a big file. When the user clicks on a tab, while the data is being loaded this error is shown. TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. I want to disable all the tabs while the xml file is being loaded.

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?

How to make a DYNAMIC TEXT invinsible at the begining and toggle the view accordingly.The Important thing is - I need the text to be invinsible at the begining. The main thing behind my need is WHEN the user GO FORWARD and BACKWARD in the main timeline the visibility of the text box should be unchanged unless the user decide to change it's visibility by clicking "chk_tbtn1" button.
In the code below every time the user go backward in timeline, it makes the txt box invinsible.
_root.my_Dyn_Txt1._visible = false
this.chk_tbtn1.onRelease = function() {
_root.my_Dyn_Txt1._visible = !_root.my_Dyn_Txt1._visible;
};

I've been searching high and low for a tutorial for your Flash movie that will show you how to make the movie ask for the users name at the begining and then it'll disply the name later on in the movie.

The Slider (and all UIComponents) rely on direct access to the 'stage' - which is denied due to recent AIR 1.5 security restrictions. This restriction prevents any UIComponent from working when loaded into an AIR app as a local SWF. The parentSandboxBridge cannot return a reference to the stage.

I have a main movie that loads a child movie clip. The child movie clip is a security access movie with 2 input boxes (standard input box components). When I run the child movie on its own the input boxes work fine.When I load the child movie from the main movie input boxes do not allow me to write in the input boxes. The cursor remains blinking inside the component but does not respond to keyboard.This is the code in the main movie that loads the child:
security.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT, fsecurity);
function fsecurity(e:ContextMenuEvent):void{var loadera = new Loader();addChild(loadera);loadera.load(new U

I have a swc file, loaded in my components panel and dragged it to my library. It is a file which allows flash as3 to evaluate strings as numbers as such. My problem is when I import the file
import r1.deval.D; I get an error message "the class r1.deval.D must subclass flash.display.MovieClip since it is linked to a library clip of that type".
I've been sitting here for hours following the developers guide and numerous examples of how to do this yet have not found the correct process.

when I inserted the code some of the symbols on stage disappeared. This did not surprise me because I did not understand the code, but then when I deleted the code it did not revert back. I dismantled the frame and dragged new symbols on stage and I still could not see them when I tested the movie. Checked to see if any code was written anywhere else but could not find any. The only code I had was a gotoAndStop which I was using simply to view that specific frame. when I removed the gotoAndStop finally the images appeared. If I placed a stop on the frame I wanted to view, then it worked fine but a gotoAndStop did not work as I was left with a white screen. Finally I had to recreate everything in a new document and then the gotoAndStop worked, but I have noticed that if I drag certain components on stage then I have a similar disappearing act.

I've been searching for the last couple days but can't seem to find a basic example of what I'm looking for. I'm developing a Flex 4.5 app and in it I have a viewstack of 2 components that use some of the same services. Currently the only way I can get the app to correctly use the web services is by defining 2 different web services that use the same PHP web service file. For example: I have an app, and within it I have a viewstack with tab navigation of 2 components: #1) retrieve a list of all Salary Employees, and #2) retrieve a list of all Contractors. Currently to get it working I am defining a UsersTableEmployees webservice within component #1 and a UsersTableContractors webservice within component #2, but they both point to the same PHP class, and only differ in the arugment value I pass to them. Ie, getUsers("employee") and getUsers ("contractors"). Of course this is not best practice.
Searching StackOverflow and Google gives me many results about ColdFusion and MVC (example What's the best way to share data between components in Flex?), but I'm still confused. Can anyone here point me to a basic example (even sample MVC) and source code of an app that uses Zend AMF and allows different components to call common web services?

I am working on a text adventure game which will have at least a few components (a text area for narrative and text input for user input) on the stage at all times. Therefore, I have created those components statically through Flash's WYSIWYG design environment. I gave them instance names "myTA" and "myTI" respectively. I was able to get my main class (the document class for the stage) to interact with them (dynamically adding text one character at a time like a typewriter at runtime), but other classes in the same package don't seem able to recognize the stage components. Below is the relevant [code]...

What is the right way for integrating a Flash component into a Flex application? I heard that there are different ways of integration between Flash and Flex: using SWF, using SWC (something else?). What are theirs pros and cons? What are the points of communication between them Flash and Flex? `I'm using Flash Builder 4 for developing Flex. And Flash Professional CS 5 for developing Flash.

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();
