I'm using the MX DateField control in Flex and want to display the date as 01 Jul 2011 or 01 July 2011. Does anyone know how to do this? I tried setting the formatString to "DD MMM YYYY" but it didn't work.
View 1 RepliesIs there any Flex control to select months (any)? Right now I'm using a DateField and allow the user to select any date in a month to select that month.
View 2 Replieshow can I set a default date (day month year) to a dateField component?
I want to load date from a xml file, and show it on the component, and ofcourse, let the user change it...
I have a form in which i add two dates
Start date
End Date
I want to know how i validate that the selected start date is always less than end date(actually an expiry date).
In my site I need to have the date available for viewers. I know how to display the date of the user and I would like to create an onion skin animation for each separate chatacter(yes, I know how to create an onion skin animation but not how to do it separate for each character). My problem is this: I want to display the name of the month, not the number. Now I want each character animated separately in the date animation. for example:
S would appear with an onion skin animation, then about a quarter second later all the other characters with the same animation, E, P, T, E, M, B, E, R, [space], 2, 4, [space], 2, 0, 0, 2. How can I code actionscript so that I can do this with the user's date? Sorry for my lack of description, its late and I can't think well.
Simply as I can put it, I drag a Datefield component on stage and then create a dynamic text field on stage. I'm looking for the actionscript to make the selected date from the DateField also appear in the dynamic textfield.
I've found the script to do this for a numeric stepper
var my_nstep:mx.controls.NumericStepper;
var nstepListener:Object = new Object();
nstepListener.change = function(evt_obj:Object){
myText.text = evt_obj.target.value;
}
my_nstep.addEventListener("change", nstepListener);
I've tried modifying this script to work with the datefield but all I can get to happen is for the dynamic textfield to say "undefined."
I have XML files formatted with XSL. They look great on IE.
Now how do I do the same with Flex (not AIR)? I would like to use something like TextArea and not data grid.
I am building an AIR application and I was planning to include the mx:HTML control but I can't seem to get the control to display. Here is the code:
var tmpHtml:HTML = new HTML();
tmpHtml.htmlText = "<a>This is the sample </a>";
tmpHtml.x = 48;

I am making a form that pass's the Variables over to php. I am using Input text feilds and also a combo box. The text fields were a breeze and the combo box took a little bit of research but I got that working by assigning it a instance name of cBox and then using the following code to pass it through:
Code:
cBoxVar= cBox.getValue();
Now I want to add a DateField using the AS2 DateField Component. How would I pass it over to a variable so when the form collects at the end it will go over to the php?
i have made a list control. i want to display the name of the objects in it in a text control box
the code i am using here is
public function add(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var str:String;
str = mylistcontrol.dataProvider.getItemAt(0).toString();
[Code]....
The problem with this code is i am using index value of 0. however i want to display the name of object on which i have clicked or which is highlighted.
Does anyone know what I need to do to get a flex text control to display cyrillic characters for example. [wvxvw? hebrew?] In addtion to the main .swf (.mxml) file there are font libraries loaded that are also in a seperate .swf The text control is subclassed from Flex.Text and in a seperated .AS file. Then to top it, the actual text in cyrillic is coming from an .xml file.I've tried "<?xml version="1.0" encoding='UTF-8' " in the main .mxml file and the xml file. I believe I've put Byte Order Marks (BOM's) for utf-8 in the .AS file and maybe some of the other files. I've compiled everything with specifying the utf-8 encoding as well. I get nothing where the characters are supposed to be.

View 3 RepliesWhen a Validator (i.e. StringValidator, NumberValidator, etc) dispatches an invalid event due to validation failure, the errorString property of the source control (i.e. TextInput) is set to a non-empty string which creates a red border around the control and shows an toolTip (errorTip) ONLY when the mouse hovers over the control. Question: Can you force immediate display of the toolTip (errorTip) rather than waiting for the user to hover over the control? If so, how?
View 2 RepliesI' m trying to use the DateField control.I can set the current value using the selectedDate field.Adobe says: "Selecting the currently selected date in the control deselects it, sets the selectedDate property to null", so when user selects other date the selectedDate = null. How do I can get the current selected value? I only saw in the debugger that DateField's text property contains the string with selected date? Do I need to parse it back?

I'm using a dateField component (with editable = true) as an itemEditor in a dataGrid. Interestingly, when editing the textInput part of the dateField it doesn't seem to react to an ESC keydown as I would expect, i.e. reload old dateField value and give up focus. This seems to be standard for most other components, but not for as most other components do.
How would you go about implementing such behavior? I can listen to keydown == escape on the TextInput portion, but just realized that I don't know how to tell dateField to give up focus and politely close - in fact I'm not even sure that's the right strategy (maybe I should work at the DataGrid level?
is there a custom component that extends DateChooser that only has the month and year but not the date grid to select a specific day. All i need is the month and year not any specific day. if the month is changed i could use the change event to select the 1st day of that month
View 2 RepliesI am builder a graph that is going to cover an entire month. The user may change the Month/Year but there is no point in choosing a date for the month as it is going to show the entire month anyways. So is there a way to maybe make the DateChooser date always the first and only allow the user to pick the month and year?
View 1 RepliesI want a to user a DateChooser to allow a user to select a date in a given month and year. I want to set the month and year programmatically and only allow the user to select the date/day. I can do this for the year easily by setting the minYear and maxYear to whatever year I want, but I am not seeing a strait forward way of disallowing the user to select a different month?

View 1 Repliesaccording the documentation borderThickness is an applicable style, but when I try to set it to anything (would prefer '0') it says "The style 'borderThickness' is excluded by type 'mx.controls.DateField'."I could style the background color to be the same as the background, but I have an image behind so this will not work.

How to create a DateField in flex, that would disable all the dates before today's current date.
<mx:DateField id="dateField2" yearNavigationEnabled="true"
disabledRanges="{[ {rangeEnd: new Date(dateBeforeCurrentDate} ]}" color="0x000000"/>
I understand I will have to do sometime like the code above. But I don't know how to get dateBeforeCurrentDate, so that all the date from yesterday will be disabled.
How can I detect when a user changes a date field - specifically when they TYPE the date as I have set it to editable:

<mx:DateField formatString="YYYY-MM-DD" id="clinicianAssignedDateInput" editable="true" text="@{this._currentEditEncounter.clinicianAssignedDate}"

The change event seems to only throw when using the calendar pop-up. It is not thrown when the user manually types in to the field. I also tried dataChange.
I have two Datefields .Is there a way that i can set the date of second Datefield to a specified range(say three days ...?. I tried to do it but not worked .. dont know to convert date back to string and format it .. here is the code

I have a Form with several FormItems and one of those include an mx:DateField. I am not sure how I should bind the DateField values. I have tried the following which none work:
<mx:DateField yearNavigationEnabled="true" text="@{dateValue}"/>
<mx:DateField yearNavigationEnabled="true" selectedDate="{dateValue}"/>
Now eventually I am trying to store/retrieve the date as a string in the db.
Regarding the dateField, there is the TextInput and the Icon. I want the icon to appear on the left side of the TextInput instead of it appearing on the right side as it is in the default state.
