I'm having the hardest time finding a way to simply add rounded tabs to a TabNavigator control.I have seen examples which seem to be really simple but they don't seem to work in Flex 4.5. Here is some sample code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

It looks like the "cornerRadius" property of a Panel only changes the top corners and bottom if using a ControlBar. I'd like to specify a corner radius for each of the corners individual.
I know Degrafa can do this but I'd like to avoid if possible.
How do I change the corner radius of a Label component in Flex. Tried applying style name, and the setStyle('cornerRadius',9) methods, but doesn't work. How can I change the arrow image in the combo box control to a different image?
View 4 RepliesI am using a Tab Navigator component in which there are three canvas components. When I click one of the canvas (or tab), a Pie Chart is displayed. Actually what happens is that on-click
1. the canvas sends an HTTPService whose url is set to a php file
2. That php file actually gets information from a database. Based on that information an xml file is created
3. Fusion Chart uses that xml file to display a pie chart
The database is being updated after some time. Is there any way the Pie Chart may get updated after every 3 minutes to reflect the modifications in the database? or
Can I send the particular HTTPService again and again after every 3 minutes 'in background'? or
Is there any good way to update the information in a particular canvas (or tab) of Tab Navigator?
In my flex application when I added a tabnavigator control and ran the application, I found that a "#" was appended to the url in the browser and whenever I select one of the tabs the url changes to this "myurl#app=7049&c152-selectedIndex=1" reflecting the index of the selected tab, is this a normal behavior of the tabnavigator,
View 2 Repliesin my case I click a button. it calls changeTabState() ; it changes the state and then needs to select a tab using selectedIndex. but that does not work properly. If i go back go the main state and click the button again, it works as it should.Button:

I am working on tabNavigator in flex 3. I have tileList within it. Contents in the tab comes dynamically so I cannot provide explicitly fixed height and width. I need to resize the tabs depending on the contents within it. To resize the tabs I have enabled 'resizeToContent' property of tabNavigator.For some reason it is not resizing as expected. 'resizeToContent' works fine for other child items in tabNavigator but fails when I use tileList as child in tabNavigator that time tileList resizes to its default size(4 rows are only visible). So i was wondering if there any way so that I can force tileList to display all its items without putting scrollbars after its default size.
just by invalidating size on creationComplete ,will that resize all tabs for me. I am having n-number of tabs in tabNavigator as user can add tabs and content within it. how can I achieve this. I am new to flex so just getting confused with its behaviorand struggling with this issue from long time.

View 1 RepliesI'm having sizing issues with a TabNavigator. The direct children of the TabNavigator are Canvases, and within these I am adding Images. I'm trying to resize the images to fit within the Canvas without scrollbars. The Canvas height is set to 100% of the parent, which is the TabNav. Then I'm setting the image.height = parent.height *.9. The result is that Flex is generating scrollbars because the images are too high. It appears that the root cause is that the height property of the TabNavigator is the height of the entire component, including the height of the tabs. I'm assuming therefore it also contains that little strip of space between the tabs and the children of the TabNavigator. This makes sense, but is there a property that returns only the height of the children? I'm aware of the scrollbar policy properties and I've experimented with those. I know I can also try a different multiplier for the image size to get it to fit. It just seems like there should be a property to get the size of the space for the children.
View 1 RepliesI have a TabNavigator component that keeps added a hash (#) to the URL. I need to prevent this. I have it set to historyManagementEnabled="false" but it is still adding the # to the URL when it initializes. The reason why adding this hash is such a problem is because, I am using .htaccess to give my URL a pretty URL like domain.com/designer/category/product/id when the page is really located at domain.com/product.php?pid=id So in order for my assets to load correctly I had to add a base tag like this:
<base href="[URL]" />
But since I have this base tag set, whenever my flex app adds the # to the URL, the page is now automatically redirected to the homepage. Any way to stop the TabNavigator from adding the # to the URL.
I've got a TabNavigator with multiple canvas children. How can i open one of the children with actions script (imagine it as a tab with an intro and after login the tab with content needs to be opened). I have tried this.parentDocument.tabs.selectedIndex(1); but that doesnt work.
View 1 RepliesI created a TabNavigator with a bunch of NavigatorContent inside it, and want to skin just the buttons of the tabs themselves. So I added a skinClass, but looks like in the documentation, there's no skin part to target the button specifically.
Do I have to style the mx:TabNavigator itself to accomplish this? I was hoping not since I don't know how to style mx components and am more comfortable with styling spark.
Is it possible to place the Tabs on the bottom of a TabNavigator?
Currently, I want to see if Flex4 can cretae tabs for me positioned on the bottom.
Currently I can use [URL] for his positionedTabNavigator and yet it looks wonky, when I apply rounded corners on the tab, it rounds the wrong end.
I have a problem with the TabNavigator. The labels of the tabs are getting truncated and once the user places their mouse over the tab it redraws again. Is there anyway to redraw the label of the tab programmatically?

Is this really a Flex bug, or is there something I'm missing? I'm using Flex 4.5.0.20967, and all of this worked well in Flex 3.5.
Apologies for the rookie Q - trying to learn Flex/Actionscript and just having some basic layout issues. (Using FlashBuilder 4, with Flex 4.5 HERO SDK) I have a TitleWindow, and have embedded a mx:TabNavigator within it. I have then placed a list within the first tab and set its width/height to 100% However, there appears to be a gap between the top of the list, and the bottom of the tab menus. Why is this happening and what is the best way to ensure the top of the list aligns up flush with the top of the VBox?

Having read about Container creationPolicy (thanks all the references in StackOverflow)I have a TabNavigator and AS code in the initial Tab needs to reference components of second tab (a Canvas with multiple children).But the components of the second tab are null until that Tab is rendered.
According to the documentation as I read it, I should be able to set creationPolicy on the second tab/Canvas to "all"; the TabNavigator will instantiate all its top-level children, even with its multi-view creationPolicy="auto"; and I was hoping that when creating the child Tab/Canvas, that the creationPolicy="all" of that single-view Container would be honored.
But it appears that this is not the case; if the TabNavigator has creationPolicy="all" then the second Tab is populated (but so are the third, fourth, ...); but with "auto" the second Tab is created, but not populated, even though its creationPolicy="all".Is there a way to get just selected Tabs to pre-instantiate?

View 2 RepliesI've just recently started out using Flash Builder and have a question surrounding states. In fact I'm not entirely sure it is related to states but read on and I hope it will become clearer. I currently have a custom component that contains 3 comboboxes. This resides in a TabNavigator component. The TabNavigator consits of 5 pages (Tabs). The custom container holding the comboboxes should display the same selected data across all Tabs. ie. If I am in Tab1 and select an item from one of the comboboxes then click on Tab2 I need to mirror the combobox's selection in Tab2.

I am using tab navigator. And it has thee tabs "Search", "Show as text", "Show on map" I have a address search box in Search tab. I would like to hide other two tabs if search has not happened yet. So if user hasn't searched any thing other two tabs shouldn't be visible.
View 1 RepliesI use a flex app (A) to load another flex app (B) using SWFLoader (both built using Flex Builder 3 sometime ago).Everything works fine as expected across all (IE, FF, Chrome, Safari) desktop browsers.However, if I use a TabNavigator within the flex app (B) then when you click on any of the tabs it unloads the flex app (B) and re-starts flex app (A). This behaviour appears to be limited to Webkit based browsers (Chrome & Safari) the rest of the browsers (IE, FF) work fine.

View 1 RepliesI have a Flex 3.5 Air Application; The main window has, besides the header, a TabNavigator. In a Tab, I've put a Google Maps object. It works fine, except that it "loads" very slow and the whole application freezes ( not responding problem ).
Now I would like to fix that but don't really now how to implement one of these solutions:
1) Load the API before the whole application loads.
2) Load the API somehow async, when the tab is clicked. I don't really need a fancy preloader, it's enough that my app doesn't freeze.
Please note that I'm "110%" sure that it's the GoogleMaps's fault since the tab canvas is empty, and no other code is there [double checked that]. Also please note that the map only loads, then I call the setCenter method, so no other operations that could freeze it.
EDIT: I managed to determine that not the Api Object creation is slow, but the actual display of it on the GUI. Here's the line of code. ResellersMapClass only extends the Google Maps API class since I intend to add there extra functionality. But right now is clean.
this.map = new ResellersMapClass();
//between here
this.mapContainer.addChild( this.map );
//and here
If paste the code below into your IDE, you can see that I have a TabNavigator, one of whose tabs' contents are larger than the other tab. I want to get my TabNavigator to resize according to it's selected child, NOT according to the largest of it's children (as it's presently doing). How would I do this?
PHP Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="[URL]">
<mx:VBox width="100%" height="100%">
<mx:TabNavigator>
<mx:Canvas label="Tab 1" width="100%" height="100%">

I was wondering if someone knows how to do what is asked in the title. I have tried setting selectedIndex to the tab I really want them to stay on and that tabs contents aredisplayed, the problem is that the actual tab shown as selected is the one I clicked, NOT the one whose details are actually being shown! It appears that the default behavior is to highlight what was clicked, not what is selected.
I've two tabs- the first one contains a datagrid with users details...so when I double click on a record, it takes me to the second tab which contains a form to change the details of the selected user. Now, the problem is if I navigate away from the second tab back to the first tab without saving the details, i want the application to show me an alert warning me to save the data...and keeps me in the same tab...
