I would like to have a bordercontainer in Flex, that the user can resize on his own with 8 dots in the top left, top, top right, left, right, bottom left, bottom and bottom right (like MS Paint etc.) Does Flex have a default solution for this, or do I have to write it myself?
View 1 RepliesI need to create a dynamically resizable photogallery wherein the menu is going to be placed beneath the image and land on a Y coordinate based on the size of the image.
The following links will help illustrate what I am attempting to accomplish:

Though subtle, the example for 2.html places the numeric menu a few pixels south, and then might need to go north depending on the size of the following - or previous - image.
I want to create animation like this. [URL]I don't know its create from actionscript or only simple flash.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to create a simple resizable triangle that can be controlled by 3 handles on the 3 corners. However I also want the other handles to change their position based on how the length of a specific line changes. On the updateScreen function Ive created, I calculate the change in the length of a specific line depending on which handle is selected. I also calculate the point that is in the center of the triangle. As the length of a specific line increases/decreases, I want the opposite point to get closer/farther from the center of the triangle. Here is some example code from the .fla.

Here's my test application:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

I would expect the mask to be applied when the checkbox is selected, and removed when it issin't. But it doesn't seem to work.However, when you change to , it works like a charm. Can anyone explain to me why?
Note: In my actual application, i'm applying this in a skin to a component that is extending SkinnableComponent which can't use BorderContainer so a solution to this would be great.
I am trying to create a flash wich will have multiple dots to indicate locations, on mouseover to these dots a panel will appear on the right hand side showing some related information.

How might I go about doing this?
I need to round at only the top or bottom of a border container not all four corners, is their some CSS that I can use or do I have to create two new skins. I was reading their used to be a property for this for HBox back in the old days, is their not a property for BorderContainer now?

how can I know how many objects are in my flex stage, so i'll be able to set the bordercontainer the highest depth? what shell i write in the depth property in order the border container would always be on top? (it's important to mention that i created dynamic objects)

Is there a way to easily specify on which sides a border is drawn for Flex 4's Spark BorderContainer?[URL]But that uses MX styling which seems like a hack. Is there a better or 'correct' way without having to build a skin? It seems incredibly silly to build a skin for a 'Bordered' component when this is a very common use case.

When I run this code, my expectation is that TestWindow should not be resizable. however I can resize it without any problem.
I would like to have in my Flex application the ability to post objects (for instance images or text items) where user can drag/drop for absolute positioning on the screen, resize it and rotate it (although not high priority). I'm wondering if there is a library that would do so out of the box or do you recommend implementing my own?

I'm programmatically creating a spark BorderContainer in ActionScript and filling it with a few labels. After I make it visible, it's width is 298 pixels. However, I only know this because I'm taking a screenshot and measuring the width. If I trace() the width, or explicitWidth, or measuredWidth, or getExplicitOrMeasuredWidth(), or getLayoutBoundsWidth() ... ad nauseum ... the reported width is always 42 pixels. Without fail. how the hell I can get the width that is visible on the screen? It's absolutely ridiculous how easy this should be, but isn't.

I have situation like two textfield, one for input and the other for output. Then there comes the problem that for single line input, I type a long sentance but when it shows in the output textfield(because the length is limited there), it only can show part of the text.
Is it possible to define the length of the output textfield change according to the input textfield? Or is it possible that when the input textfield has more text than the output textfield required, then the text shown in the output textfield automatically change into smaller font size?
