In Flex you can use Declarations tags fo non UI elements.Problem:The order of classes inside the Declaration is sorted ascending or something...Meaning that in this example, AClass will be instantiated before BClass:
<fx:Declarations>
<local:AClass />
<local:BClass />

I'm building a Flex/Flash Builder 4 application that loads data using E4X/XML, like this:I originally build an application that was a single MXML file which loaded this XML file and built a form from the data.I've now build a main menu screen with a button to load the form screen as a seperate module. How do I get the XML declaration to work in this module without loading it again.
View 1 RepliesHow do you add an XML declaration - < ?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"? > - to a Flex XML object? The same thing you could do with the old XML - new XMLDocument class and the xmlDecl property.

View 1 RepliesI am creating an order form for my flash site. I have never done this before in flash but I have in visual basic. I have a few questions:
1. Is assigning variable names to checkboxes and radio buttons the same as in visual basic? I mean i know that you probably assign them in the properties. ex..say i name a radio button 'radio1', to run a check in my actionscript whether radio1 was checked or not would it be something like if(radio1){}
2. After the person fills out the form I would like to have the results of the order sent to a pre-specified email adress in a certain format. What would be a good way to do this?

View 2 RepliesI hava a project in flashdevelop 4.0 and I used flex sdk 4.0.
Although I add support for FP 11 in flex config file and also in project settings and compiler options, I still get my project stated after comiplation in FP 10 not FP 11. (I uninstalled FP 10 with adobe unninstaller).
And also when I embed the swf in html page with swfobject I keep getting that I need to install FP 11 which is already installed.
So I am asking is it neccesary to migrate to flex sdk 4.5 in order to use FP 11?
If this is not a programming question than move it, but I dont know where to place it elsewhere.
I'm wondering if is there any way to mimic the same behaviour we have for top level classes in AS3 for example:

I am trying to print a string with html formatting. Part of the formatting includes font face. I have found that my print job will not print any string that includes a font face declaration. I'm guessing because the font isn't embedded, but I'm not positive.
This works:
string = "<b>bold</b> not bold";
Doesn't work:
string = "<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="12" COLOR="#000000" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">this is my string</font></p></textformat>";
How can I get around this. I need the ability to print any font on a users computer.
I have a component called a TableDataViewer that contains the following pieces of data and their associated set functions:[code]This component is nested in another component as follows:[code]Looking at the trace in the logs, the call to set table is coming before the call to set dataSetLoader. Which is a real shame because set table() needs dataSetLoader to already be set in order to call its load() function.So my question is, is there a way to enforce an order on the calls to the set functions when declaring a component?
View 1 RepliesI've got a component written for my app by a third party developer and am trying to integrate it, but I've found a bug that seems like it's either a compiler bug, or there's something with how Flex and static variables work that I wasn't aware of.Basically, I have this:
public class ModeChangeController {
public static const DISPLAY_MODE:String = "DisplayMode";
}[code]...
If I use //V2 (i.e. comment out V1), a bug occurs at the startup of the application (some TextFields are uneditable and contains no text), but with //V1 and not V2, it works fine. If I comment out both, that also works fine (I don't get the TextField bug).It took me a while to figure out that it was that static const String that was causing the issue, but I'm still not sure why or if there's something I can do about it except for just moving the DISPLAY_MODE to Events (which is what I've done at the moment, but it's not a particularly nice solution).There are no errors in the log. The order of the includes in my BorderContainer code doesn't matter. I've googled for "as3/flex static initialization order" but haven't found anything.
Clarification: showInitialView() never gets called. It doesn't get there before the other bug shows up. Just having the V2 line there causes the problem.
Update: I've fixed my problem with the TextInput strings not showing: Turns out that adding the component caused the Tahoma font to not show up. However, setting the font-weight to bold fixed that problem, or switching to Arial. With that said, the original question still stands, because when I ran it without V2, it found Tahoma with normal font-weight.
The flex DataGrid colums are arranged alphabetically by default. I need to order the DataGrid colums as per the order in its dataProvider. The dataprovider is the result of the HTTPService . And the number of columns is not known to us . The number of columns depends on the HTTPService result.

this should be easy, but I can't figure it. How do I get an XML declaration in AS3? I need to get any encoding= parameter. For example this XML:

It's XML text that loads externally from a URL using URLLoader. I create the XML object by doing var xml:XML = new XML(evt.target.data) upon load complete. I've tried XML.ignoreProcessingInstructions = false and no effect. xml.children()[0] is the first node, not the declaration. Do I need to manually parse the raw string data that is returned from URLLoader?
I'm currently working on a project where I'm having to deal with a lot of different variables and am wondering if there would be a way to cut down on my declaration ones (there are currently 152 variables dedicated to one small portion of the project.)What I have is a type, which has some subtypes(4), which have even more subtypes(subtype 1a-c: 7 types, subtype 1d: 13), which have yet another set of subtypes(which are basically subtype 1a-c's + few more, and are all applied to subtype 1d.)
View 5 RepliesI have a component that has a sub-component they both use a shared variable from the model. The shared variable needs to be set by the parent component before it can be used by the child component. I did like this in the parent component:
<mx:Canvas
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
...
creationComplete="group1_completeHandler(event)" >
[Code]....
But for some reason when the code inside myCustomComponent tries to use myVariable for the first time I get a "null" object error. This means I guess that the child component gets rendered before the group1_activateHandler gets called and consequently myVariable gets set.
What should I do to ensure that the parent container initializes the variable before the child component gets created?
I have a datagrid and it lists several rows as
seqno | NAME | COMPANY
1 | BOB | D&T
2 | Jenny | M&Y
3 | Jane | D&T
It is possible to have buttons as [MOVE UP] and [MOVE DOWN] so that when I select a row in a datagrid and press one of those button that the order changes and the seqno updates accordingly.
Meaning if I select Jane and press the [MOVE UP] button, the new order would be;
seqno | NAME | COMPANY
1 | BOB | D&T
2 | Jane | D&T
3 | Jenny | M&Y
ActionScript Code:
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clic);
function clic(evt:MouseEvent){
var clip:MovieClip=evt.target as MovieClip;
removeChild(clip);
}
1) Why it's also possible write removeChild(DisplayObject(clip)) and for what? In which case it's necessary?
2) if I write var clip=evt.target it's works too but if I write var clip:MovieClip=evt.target it doesn't work. Why? It's a movieClip that should go in the variable var.
I'm having trouble reading an XMLDocument object that has an xml declaration. When I try to trace the first child of the document I get nothing. I've run into this before but it wasn't a problem because previously I was in control of the format of the xml, so it was no problem to just not have an xml declaration, but for this project I don't have that control.

View 4 RepliesComing from a pure programming background where I have a render() and which image is drawn over which, is based on in the order of the drawn function of the image being called.
But after trying out Flex, I notice that Flex allows images to be created & drawn in the MXML file using the <image> tag and that I can also create and draw images in a AS class file link to that MXML file.
But it seems like any images created in the MXML file are drawn over the images created and drawn in my AS class file.
Is there a way to specify the draw order of the images?
I have been trying to understand the way ActionScript's events are implemented, but I'm stuck.I know that AS is single threaded, which means that only one event handler will be executing at a time, and also means that handlers will be executed in a deterministic order*.For example, consider the following code:
1: var x = {executed: false};
2: foo.addEventListener("execute", function(){ x.executed = true; });
3: foo.dispatchEvent(new Event("execute"));

I'll show you the function first.[code]As you see, the order i put the items in the ArrayCollection is Areal, then Verdi (area, value)When i loop through the collection later, the order changes. Now it is Verdi then Areal (value, area).Does anyone have an idea of what might be the problem?It really ruins things when I pass it over to a PHP-script for table-making in html later.(I have several different dynamic DataGrids that differs in size and "values", so I can't really point directly to f.ex "Areal" in my PHP-script)And by the way, does anyone know how i can remove that pesky mx_internal_uid?
View 1 RepliesI have a checkbox that is bound to a property:
<mx:CheckBox label="Show All" selected="{showAll}"/>
I want to trigger an event when the checkbox is toggled that will read the value of showAll after a change:
<mx:CheckBox label="Show All" selected="{showAll}" click="_list.refresh()" />
Where, in this case, _list is an ArrayCollection object whose filter function depends on the showAll field to choose values.It turns out that this doesn't work, or at least gives a strong appearance of not working (what with the values in the list not changing and all). Is there a documented order of events for this, so that I can discover which events are dispatched in which order, and whether the binding value change will have fired the time the click event is dispatched? Alternately, can someone recommend a better way of doing this?
