View 2 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Additions Of The Number Data Type?
May 1, 2008I'm trying to get the sum of two number values in an XML file, so I'm doing this:
PHP Code:
_root.gallery_height = myGalleryXML.firstChild.attributes.height; // '200'
_root.spacing = myGalleryXML.firstChild.attributes.vertical_spacing; // '20'
_root.bar_y= _root.gallery_height+_root.spacing;
trace(_root.bar_y); //outputs 20020
The answer is supposed to be 220, but it comes out at as 20020 because the interpreter treats then as strings.
I can fix the problem by casting the type using the Number() method this way:
PHP Code:
_root.gallery_height = myGalleryXML.firstChild.attributes.height; // '200'
_root.spacing = myGalleryXML.firstChild.attributes.vertical_spacing; // '20'
_root.bar_y= Number(_root.gallery_height)+Number(_root.spacing);
trace(_root.bar_y); //outputs 220
This works fine, but is it *the right* way of doing it? Why is Flash treating my numbers as strings?

Flex :: Automatically Scroll To Bottom When New Data Added?
Nov 28, 2009I have 2 questions about flex datagrids: How can I scroll it automatically to the bottom when new portion of data arrived to it (e.g. I added new items). Strange, but seems it doesn't scroll when I use scrolling wheel, is there any trick about it (especially for mac Users).
public function scroll():void {
trace(chatboard.maxVerticalScrollPosition);
chatboard.verticalScrollPosition = chatboard.maxVerticalScrollPosition;
} <mx:TextArea id="chatboard" x="10" y="10" width="310" height="181" text="{chatMessages}" editable="false" verticalScrollPolicy="on" resize="scroll()"/>
But actually it don't work. The text area is not autoscrolled. Seems that 1) scroll is not called after new string is added to chatMessages.

View 2 RepliesFlex :: Convert XML Data To Number Before Filling An AdvancedDataGrid
Jun 16, 2011I import XML data in order to fill an AdvancedDataGrid (using Flex 4.5). This ADG is correctly filled with the data, columns display the right information etc. etc.
I would like to summarize this ADG using
<mx:SummaryRow summaryPlacement="group">
<mx:SummaryField2 dataField="Cost" label="amount" summaryOperation="SUM">
</mx:SummaryRow>
But there is a problem! Indeed, the 'Cost' data are imported as 'Strings' and that is why I cannot do the SUM... I just get a nice 0 as a result! I would like to convert these data into Numbers, so that the addition can be processed. This conversion has to be done before filling the ADG I think.
I already tried to implement a custom summaryOperation but was unlucky...
public function calculateSummary(data:Object, field:SummaryField2, rowData:Object):void
{
var dataField:String = field.dataField;
[Code]...
The Alert always displays a void message, the data are not transmitted to this function I think
There is another thing: the user can insert new data in the XML dynamically and that insertion has to update the SUM result.

View 1 RepliesFlex :: Arbitrary Number Of Anonymous Loader Handers With Individual Data?
May 12, 2009I have an arbitrary number of files that I need to load in an AIR app.I want to iterate through an array of File object and create and launch Loaders for each one's File.url.When they are done (event COMPLETED or IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR), I want to stuff their data somewhere. If they fail, I want to make an exception report. I cannot find any way to reference the File object from the event listener (certainly not the IO_ERROR)The best way would be to create individual event handlers for each Launcher that had the File information "hard-coded" into it. At the very least, I could use the function itself as an index to a Dictionary:
foo(fileToLoad : File) : void
{
var theCompletedHandler : Function =
{
[code]....
Can I use event.currentTaget and use the Loader instance as an index? Will that have any weird dependencies ?
Flex :: ComboBox In DataGrid Loses Values When Scroll Horizontally
Dec 14, 2009I have a very strange problem in a Flex 3.4 Datagrid. One of the columns is a ComboBox - I have my own custom renderer for the ComboBox. I use it to select my data and then make a "save" to the db. Upon return the comboBox loses its value. Even stranger is that when I scroll the datagrid area to the left (by moving scrollbar right) - the values in the ComboBox change!! When I scroll the datagrid right (by moving the scrollbar left) - the values in the ComboBox don't change.

Flex :: Flash Sprite Loses Focus On MOUSE_DOWN Event
Jan 15, 2011My Sprite class keeps losing focus when I click with the mouse - specifically after the MOUSE_DOWN event (before the click is complete).
I have set mouseEnabled to false on the children, no change. I added a listener for FOCUS_OUT and noticed that the FocusEvent.relatedObject property is NULL, which is confusing me - doesn't that mean there is no new focus target, the focus is just getting lost?
The exact sequence of events I get, by tracing them, as I click:
[FocusEvent type="focusOut" bubbles=true cancelable=false eventPhase=2 relatedObject=null shiftKey=false keyCode=0]
[MouseEvent type="mouseDown" bubbles=true cancelable=false eventPhase=2 localX=355

Flex :: Custom TextInput Component Loses Focus But Still Contains Cursor?
Oct 29, 2011I have a custom TextInput that listens for the FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN and FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT events:
textDisplay.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN, onFocusInHandler);
textDisplay.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT, onFocusOutHandler);
My onFocusInHandler function basically removes a "promptview" that tells the user to type in a value, with the onFocusOutHandler doing the opposite.
For example, if the TextInput text was backspaced to a blank value and the user clicks out of the TextInput box, it would show a "Please enter a value" light-gray prompt in the TextInput.
This works fine until the user clicks our custom "Clear" button. The clear button sets the text to "", and I can tell the FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT is received because the prompt text is set to visible (its not being set anywhere else). The problem is, the cursor remains in the box as if it still has focus, so if the user immediately starts typing, both the prompt text "Please enter a value" and the user-entered text appears over the gray text, which looks pretty ugly and unreadable.
Why does the TextInput receive the FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT event if it's not actually losing focus?
Actionscript 3 :: Automatically Include A Number Of Images In The SWF File?
Mar 28, 2010i'm trying to include a number of images in my SWF file not by loading them but by embedding them in the SWF itself. I found the following instruction to do that:

Basically, i want to embed a different number of images each time. Is there a way to do that automatically (let's say inside a for loop) or do i have to type manually this instruction for each image i want to include?
