I've been working with Flash Builder for quite a long time, but just lately, developing a relative small project in Flex, when I try to auto complete the code sometimes the whole application crashes (keeps loading forever). It happened when I was writing <Style source="" /> or even when it was auto generating an handler for an event, so I guess it doesn't depend on the classes I use.
View 2 RepliesI'm working on a project that has a Main.fla and a Preload.fla. I am doing all the coding in Flash Builder 4. Each time I want to test I have to go to Flash CS5, publish Main.swf and then run Preload.swf. Is there a way to automate this process so I can just press the "Run Main" button inside Flash Builder 4 and all that is done automatically?
View 1 RepliesI need to make an auto complete component in flex that fetches the auto complete results from a remote database using a webservice. I have the webservice and querying part worked out. I've already made custom components in action script by extending VBoxes. However I cannot figure out how to generate the popup window that is supposed to show under the text input in my auto complete text box.

Does anyone know if there is a Flex 3 or Flex 4 equivalent to the JQuery DelayedObserver?

If not, how could we go about implementing it in Flex?
my auto complete isn't working.ActionScript Code:import flash.display.MovieClipusing the above, if I type: import flash.display. there is only one item in the auto complete (BitmapData), when there should be a lot more than that. Why are they not showing?
View 9 RepliesI'm working on a Mac Pro with Mac Os 10.6.5 installed with the 64bits version.It was pretty good to see that Flash Builder can now work with Flash CS5. But if I don't work on Flash Builder or Flash CS5 for several minutes, Flash crashes everytime ! I have never worked once on the combo Flash CS5 / Flash builder 4 without having Flash crashing !It is very annoying, and a huge waste of time
View 1 RepliesDoes Flash Builder 4 allow one to automate building Flash CS5/as3 .flas?
View 1 RepliesI started to use Flash Builder with Adobe Flash CS5. Everything seems to ork great, but auto code completion if FB works only for FlexSDK classes. For example, if I'll write "import fl." list with "events;ik;lang; ..." appears, but when I write "import flash." i have ".text" suggestion only. I would be very glad if someone could tell me how to fix this. I couldn't find anything in google (code completion in Flash Pro works great, only in Flash Builder not).
View 1 RepliesIn a Flex Project, whenever there's an error, I fill in the error data into a hidden TextInput then show the control to the user. I want to make it so that after showing the TextInput, it will automatically hide itself after some time with a fade effect.
View 1 RepliesPosted this to the Adobe Support forum too, but so far, no luck there. My Flash CS4 installation on one computer is not giving me the auto complete choices it should for AS3. When I open an FLA for AS3, the ActionScript panel gives me the correct auto complete options for AS3.When I create a new AS file, link it to an AS3 FLA file, the auto complete options in the AS file are AS2 related and I cannot figure out why it's doing this or how to get my AS3 options back.I have some screen shots posted there to show what's happening.

Does anyone know if there is a way to make the new Package Explorer window in Flash Builder emulate Flex Builders 'Flex navigator' window?
Bottom line is I don't always need to peer into SWC's, and I don't like having a 'default package' automatically created for me. Not sure why the interface wasn't made simpler, allowing access to more power and complexity only if necessary. I want to focus on the code, not on how to navigate and use the bells and whistles in the coding environment.
I just upgraded to Flash Builder 4 (beta 2) from Flex Builder 3 which I have been using since it came out. Problem: All the projects that were in my workspace from Flex Builder 3 did not carry over into Flash Builder 4 (e.g. in the "Flex Navigator" view if FB3). Flash Builder 4 now uses the .FXP format to manage projects, but Flex Builder 3 did not. Is there an easy way to get all my projects back into Flash Builder 4?
View 2 RepliesMy question concerns the following tutorial I've been working through:Building a Flex Type-Ahead Text Input
I was successful in enabling a search of available terms using the characters entered in the input, but only irrespective of the location of the characters in the terms. However, I am wondering how one might have the characters match only the beginning of the terms.
For example, suppose I enter the string "app" into the text input. How can I get only "apple" and not, for instance, "pineapple" to appear as an option?
I am using Flash CS5 and I have created a large, rarely changing framework that I don't want to be recompiled every time I use it in my projects.I must be doing something wrong because the "auto-complete" functionality doesn't show the names of the parameters of the functions.For example, I have a function:
public class Hey {
public function show(name:String, num:Number, data:Array):void {...}
}

For some reason, in the past few days, the auto complete feature doesn't work well when I'm creating a new class file. I'm trying to write a new class which uses away3D, and even though the auto-complete works well when I start a new AS3 file, it just doesn't work as far as away3D is concerned when I try to create a new AS3 Class file. Other features of the auto-complete don't work as well, for some reason.

View 1 RepliesI'm working on a large-size dual AS3/Flex project (some parts are pure AS3, other parts are Flex), and I'm experiencing a lot of Flash Debugger crashes.
These crashes aren't completely random - it seems like I can get them to occur with greater consistency when I perform certain actions in my app. However, at the same time, they aren't consistently repeatable - sometimes a set of actions causes my app to crash, and other times, the same steps execute fine without a crash.
I have two questions (carefully worded to remove my personal bias

Coding a Flash program I've encountered a bug which crashes Firefox 3 when I go fullscreen - the other browsers work, and Firefox 4 work if I set params.wmode = "direct"; in the html file.
Googling I noticed it's very common and there are tons of "client-side fix" results, but I'm interested in fixing it myself if it can be done.
When setting up a source control repository for a Flex Builder workspace, what do you consider to be worth checking in? Do you exclude the workspace .metadata folder but keep the .project and other project specific files? Keep both? Throw away both? Is there a guideline you use to decide which is worth holding onto or do you do it out of practical experience?
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to upload a complete folder with subdirectories and files (in the subdirectories) in Flex?
I am using a Flex / BlazeDS / Spring application. The question is not how to transfer the data to the server.The question is: if it is possible to get access to the files and subfolders (recursive) with Flex?
From a video on AdobeTV, I tried to play with example empWeb (LiveCycle Data Services).In Flex Builder 3 (FB3) everything works fine. When I tried this on Flash Builder 4.0 Beta (FB4) it doesn't work. When I replaced original xmlns declarations (2009, spark, halo)with declarations from FB3 (2006) it works. Could you explain why?I'm using the default SDKs (Flex 3.2 for FB3 and Flex 4.0 for FB4). I investigated this (please see 3 source code examples). Source #1 works OK in FB3 and FB4, Source #2 gives a FB4 compilation error message: [code]
View 1 RepliesI have a Flex module created in Flash Builder 4 as a swf file. I am trying to load and run in within a Flash application. I can get the module loaded but I can not get the flash application to access any module functions. Here is how I load the module in Flash and the error I get. If I change the module to an application type swf then it loads and runs but now I have two applications on top of each other. I would like the loaded module swf to be able to have access the Flash stage object.

I just got CS5 master suite which includes Flash Builder 4 and Flash CS5 Pro. When I create a new AIR app in CS5 pro it says "AIR 2" but when I create a new AIR project in Flash Builder I do not see anything indicating that it is AIR 2 or 1.5?
Is there a way to tell which AIR runtime it is using?

View 1 RepliesI'm setting up a build system for a Flash Builder 4 (Flex 4) based project; and I'm struggling to get a setup that compiles in the IDE the same as it does from the command line on the build server.I come from a C# background; and my expectation is that I'll be able to create a "solution" with a collection of "projects" that I can compile from the IDE, or from the command line on the build server.The best I've managed sofar is 2 separate build "scripts", a custom ant script for the build server, and the default Flash Builder IDE config based on a workspace; but this is making my DRY daemons jump around in fury.
