Flex :: TextArea Component Is Null On ApplicationComplete Event
Jun 11, 2010I have a weird issue (weird because it is specific to one component) with applicationComplete in a fairly simple application. All the UI components are declared in MXML.

View 1 RepliesFlex :: 4 AddElement Or Something Wrong With CreationComplete Event?
Aug 19, 2010I am using the new Flex4 Spark stuff but I'm stuck at an awful problem. Let me explain a bit of the situation first. I have a container (mx:Canvas) in which I do addElement() of one type instances (DocumentWindow). The document window class is supposed to be the holder for a view according to the type of the document. The DocumentWindow class extends TitleWindow. I also have a task bar which is a mx:Canvas with buttonBar inside so that the windows should be switchable. So in 2 words I got windows holder and a taskbar. The strange thing comes now: When I put a DocumentWindow with type "doc" (which loads swf made by swftools) the window appears in the windows holder and as task on the taskbar.
But if first I open something else - DocumentWindow with type audio or video which causes the DocumentWindow to instantiate different view inside, the window doesn't appear on the screen neither a task button is being shown in the taskBar. I put a trace() on that and it shows that numElements is increasing, the taskBar ButtonBar.dataProvider.length is increased, so the things are there - just that they stay invisible until I open DocumentWindow with type 'doc'? I even tried to make DocumentWindow not to load the view inside because I thought that the only difference is the view... but then even the 'doc' typed DocumentWindow didn't show. A clue may be that creationComplete is never called until a 'doc' view is added.

Flex :: Does An Mx:Window Component Have It's Own ApplicationComplete
Jul 17, 2011I'm working on an app that, from the Main.mxml, opens one or many Window.mxml instances. When it's done I want all windows to be chromeless so the custom controls need to work. In Main I've added applicationComplete="init();" so the init function gets ran, which contains clickhandlers, which makes the buttons work. However, this way of running an init function doesn't seem to be valid for an mx:Window. I can cheat by not using a clickhandler for the minimize and close buttons with a click="this.minimize();", but I don't know of a way like this to make the move work because it's a MOUSE_DOWN event.
Question 1: Is there a way to have such an init function in an mx:Window?
Question 2: What's a good way to make the buttons on the Window instances all work?

ActionScript 3 :: CreationComplete Event Does Not Show Correct Height / Width
Apr 27, 2011I have an issue where using MXML, the height and width properties of myBox is correctly acquired but using ActionScript the correct height and width acquired is not correct.
my:Tab extends NavigatorContent (This is NOT the tab in a Tab Bar)
com:myBox extends BorderContainer.
<mx:ViewStack id="viewstack_main" width="100%" height="100%" creationPolicy="all">
<my:Tab label="My Tab">
<s:Scroller height="100%" width="100%">
[Code] .....
In the constructor of myBox I set the percentWidth and percentHeight to both 100. In the creationComplete event of the same myBox, I need to access the height and width. This works all ok with the MXML. However using ActionScript I need to add another tab.
var navContainer:Tab = new Tab();
viewstack_main.addElement(navContainer);
var scroller:Scroller = new Scroller();
scroller.percentHeight = 100;
scroller.percentWidth = 100;
[Code] .....
But unfortunately, in the creationComplete event of box, the height and width properties are NOT what is expected (the height & width after setting 100%). It is 112. Why this works with MXML but NOT ActionScript?

Actionscript 3 :: TileList CreationComplete In Adobe Flex 3.0
Jul 3, 2010I have made a tile list is Adobe Flex as follows
[Code]...
the problem is the creationComplete event is not fired for each PageImageRenderer, and it is fired only for the tiles visible at start so the rectangles drawn in initComponents() is only drawn for those tiles with valid values, and when I scroll to next row using scrollToIndex() function the rectangles are shown with previous values. and no initComponents() is called for these tiles? however the data.name, data.class are correctly displayed but not the rectangles, why it is so? What is the proper event against which I should call initComponents()?
Flex :: Performance - Six Seconds Between Initialize And CreationComplete
Apr 4, 2011I'm working with a large flex applications and I have noticed that one of our largest components (with lots of child canvases) takes about 6 seconds between the initialize and creationComplete events.

View 3 RepliesFlex :: Flex CreationComplete() Not Executing For Certain Machines
Jul 26, 2011I have a creationComplete="myMethod(event)" in my s:Application, and it runs fine on my 3 flex (Flash Builder 4) development machines. However it is not working on the 2 end user machines I tried it on today!
It is not executing the creationComplete at all, but it is running the application and it seems like all the other code is running fine - with the exception of possibly some other creationComplete code for other components in the app.
On my machines I have tested it under IE 8 and 9, FireFox and Chrome - on all 3 machines.
On these two machines it has the problem on both IE 7 and IE 8. I even installed FireFox new and it also has the issue. After installing the latest flash player and deleting all browser history/cookies it still has the problem.
What might cause the creationComplete to not execute?
Update: I tried using initialize() and no difference.
However, I believe I found the line of code causing the problem:
var isDebug:Boolean = new Error().getStackTrace().search(/:[0-9]+]$/m) > -1;
If I comment that out, it works fine. I need that to know if my app is running in development/debug mode or on an end users machine.

View 2 RepliesFlex :: Events - 4 States IncludeIn And Component CreationComplete?
Feb 2, 2011I have a component that, once it's all ready, I need to set the state based on a variable I'm reading in from XML. I tried doing it with creationComplete, but it's apparently not ready, as the state isn't being set with elements rendering properly, but the states & rendering work fine if I do a subsequent state change with a click action on some element.
What should I do in this situation to make sure the state gets set at the right time & elements that should appear due to includeIn exist so they can be rendered? initialize instead of creationComplete doesn't seem to do the trick for the first time the component is created. Any successive calls to the component are fine.

Aug 1, 2011I am creating game which involves some billiard-like balls to bounce on the screen. I created a MovieClip with only one frame which represented the ball, exported it to the class, extended it to my needs and animated it using Event.ENTER_FRAME. It works fine, but there is something that confuses me -- both, the stage and the ball have only one frame each, so I don't quite understand how Event.ENTER_FRAME works... I mean, if there are no keyframes, how is done the animation? If I used already animated MovieClip, I would have to add keyframes, right?

View 2 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Updating A Var And Firing A Function With It On Creationcomplete?
Dec 7, 2011I'm having trouble with updating a var and firing a function with it on creationcomplete.In the main component i declared a var artist. This var certainly works and has a value. I also need that var in another component: a profile component. I am able to get that var with:
newVar = Maincomp(this.parentApplication).artist;
I use the newVar in an API in the profile component. When i launch the API function with a mouseEvent, it works. However, i want to launch the API function on creationComplete and than the var doesn't work: it returns Null. I hoped that making all the involved vars bindable would help, but it doesn't. Extra code to make my case clearer:In main comp:
public function handleclick(cName:String):void
{
vName = "aVariableIGetFromAnAPI";[code]...
This code works, but point is that this code works if i call it with a MouseEvent, but doesn't when it needs to launch on creationcomplete. Or well, it returns Null instead of a value. I thought that making the involved vars bindable would fix it, but it doesn't.
Flex :: Event Flows For Built-in Event And Custom Event
Aug 22, 2011I hava a custom component and it contains a child icon. If I add a mouse-click event listener to both component(click-listener1) and icon(click-listener2), the event dispatched sequence is click-listener2, then click-listener1. I can understand it. But if I add a custom event to component (listener1), and mouse-click event to icon(listener2), when icon is clicked, the component will dispatch the custom event. In my test, the event dispatched sequence is listener1, then listener2. It doesn't match with event-bubbles rule.
In my opinion The custom event is dispatched in listener2, which triggers listener1. Why event flow sequence is not listener2, listener1?
In component.
icon.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, iconClickHandler);
private function iconClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
