Flex :: Grouping Collection Separating Numeric 5 From String "5"?
Apr 8, 2010
I have an advanced data grid. The data provider for this ADG is an ArrayCollection. There is a grouping collection on an ID field of this AC. Example of a couple items within this AC the AC var name is "arcTemplates":
(mx.collections::ArrayCollection)#0
filterFunction = (null)
length = 69
list = (mx.collections::ArrayList)#1
[code]....
Problem: In my AC example there are a few items, items 0, 32 and 56 properly sort and group to their templateTypeID, but item 55 does something weird. It seems to sort/group on the numeric 5 instead of the string "5". Gets stranger. If I change the name property to contain text (so 1234x) it then correctly sorts/groups to the string "5"
In ActionScript I have string as str="subject,r1,r2:a,b:1,2:3,4"; Dynamically I have split this string and build array collection as given below arraycoll.addItem({subject:a ,r1:1,r2:3}); This example of one set. The array collection should be built dynamic. I have tried but not successful.
well i have this string im receiving from an URL: "245500" All I need to do is separate all of the characters, so it would gimme back an array just like
PHP Code:
Array = ["2", "4", "5", "5", "0", "0"]
I've tried using .split(), but since it does not have an index (like a comma or dot), it won't do..
nTest = 1 //numeric sTest = " test" //string sFinal = nTest & sTest //string I get an error with this, because sFinal is a string, and im tryin to put in an numeric value. How can I create this code so that it will work? I want the sFinal to contain "1 test". This code is useless, I know, but this is just an example.
I have an mc.instance name is Twentysecond it has a text box called label When clicked Twentysecond populates a text box and I want to use this code Flash will not let me use an instance name of 22nd.
TwentySecond.label = _name;//(I want this to show 22) onRelease = function(){ myTextBox = _name; // (I want this to show 22nd }
I should know how to do this, but memory is failing.
I'm currently searching google whilst I ask this - I just couldn't find anything on my initial searches.Are there any quick ways to remove all non-numeric characters from a string?For example my string would contain:
'code: 1234'
I would wish to remove the 'code: ' part from the string just leaving '1234'.
I`ve got one combobox wich items are named as alfabetic stringsThen one input textfield where u inser numbersThen in the third element on stage (dynamix textfield) wher the result of the calculation is displayed.The problem is that when i try to transform the text string into a numeric value like this it dosent work (example for giving the string "Leds " a value of 300):
var myNumber:Number = 300; var myString:String = "Leds" (myNumber) This is the rest of the code without the conversion from text to number working good but
I have made a form and want to check valid data i.e if alpanumeric value is req. user cannot enter numeric value and vice versa. I found no inbuilt fn. in flash which could detect whether the entered value is string or numeric.
I am building a remote control, and when i enter txt, right now i can "change the channel" only for a single value 1-9. the way it functions is you hit the number, then an enter button, and the channel changes. The problem is I want to able to enter 2 digits, and the way i have it coded now, it adds the the numbers together instead of reading 1 as 2 , 2 as 4 and so on, here is the code, I'm thinking i should use an array, or a string to get the proper value, but when i use the "+" sign it still adds the number together, how would i express, so it sees 11 as eleven etc?
ActionScript Code: function storePad(evt:MouseEvent):void { var aNum:Number = Number(evt.target.name.substr(4))
I I have an alpha-numeric string as a variable. I would like to extract (from left to right) all of the numbers from the string and then push them into an array. Below, is what I have going so far, but it stops after the first number it meets. I was under the impression that the RegExp.exec runs through the entire string before stopping.
var testMenu:RegExp = /d/; var whichTarget:String = me.target.name[code]..........
when I trace my array, it is just filled with the first number that is encountered. So, in the two examples above the array beomes [1] (when the string that is executed is "menu1sub2hypo3" and then [3] when the string that is executed is "menu3sub4hypo8". It craps out after the first number is reached.What I really want is that the array gets filled with [1, 2, 3] in the first example and [3, 4, 8] in the second example. How in Helsinki would I do that? Does the exec function need to be looped in any way?
Not so important right now but thinking a little down the line: what regular expression would I need to find "25" instead of just "2" if I run this RegExp.exec on a string that may look like this "menu25sub3hypo6"?
LinkeSetFx has its own CollectionEvent, but I don't know how to map the LinkedSetFx event to mx.events.collectionEvent(I want use it in ComboBox). LinkedSetFx is in AS3Commons-collection framework.Here is the url, choose the as3commons-collections-1.0.0.zip, you'll find LinkedSetFx in srcorgas3commonscollectionsfx
How ever I want to be able to do this dynamically.
The usage in the project is to be able to represent any data from a database, with any number of possible groupings on the horizontal and vertical axis.
Could someone offer some guidance on the most efficient structure to get an XML return in order to build these kind's of pivots on the fly. All the examples I have seen are statically defined. What I would like to do is be able to have a structure for a return that could give any level of grouping and data return from a web service call.
The tool I'm building is a reporting tool, so users could drag any DB field into column or row potentially so the key thing is the ability to define and build "any structure" a user would want.
When I get a collection back from the service tier, I create an ArrayCollection and apply a sort. When I add an item to the collection later on, the sort is still in place? It seems to be the case. I thought I was only sorting it once, not applying a sort that will stick??Here is the method for adding an item:
private function onAddNewClick():void { var fileTemplate:FileTemplateDetailDTO = new FileTemplateDetailDTO();
I have a flat data array that comes form a remoteobject, I want to group whatever is to be grouped, but leave single items (the ones with no common data with anything else) alone and without grouping, it's annoying to open each node only to find there's just one item inside, so there was no need to put it inside that group anyway. I can't find any reference and I don't know if getting the hierarchicaldata out of the groupingcollection and then iterate thru it would be any good, sounds like a lot of duplicate work.
I have an advanced datagrid that has a grouping on it. With the items inside of the grouping I have it setup where you double click on an item and it will create a popup that allows the user to edit that entry. The problem that I am having is that I can double click on the group title and the popup is activated with blank information.[code]...
Does anybody tried Dynamic column grouping using Hirarchical/tree data structure in Flex advanced datagrid ? is it possible to create a column header dynamically and so the datagrid column with using certain datafield using dataprovider dat.
In my flex application im using two datagridfirst datgrid is for items collectionssecond is for bank details.if i click one row in first datagrid (which has the items collections)...a unique code is taken from the grid(which is primary key).then, i have to select two or more banks using itemrenderer checkboxes in second datagrid(which has the bank details)ow, have to bind the bank details(one or more banks) with that one primary key in first datagrid. to an single array collection... and have to show it in another new datagrid(thirdone)
I am trying something where I have 2 Numeric Steppers. One numeric stepper holds values from 0-230 and the other from 0.00-0.99. My question is how to change the value of the first numeric stepper when the second numeric stepper goes from 0.99 to 0.00. Suppose the first numeric stepper has a value 10 and the second numeric stepper is being incremented continuously. As it reaches 0.99 and on mouse up on the up arrow, 10 should change to 11 and this numeric stepper goes to 0.00.
I want to separate the data from the PHP call to Different CollectionArrays So that I can use the data for a bar-graph;
I created a static version of the bar-graph and separated the Collection array manually I don't want this done manually I need to do it dynamically. So what I am trying to understand is where to put the event-listener how to add to a collectionArray then once the collection array(s) are built. use that information to build the bar graphs...
i have numeric stepper in MXML component.when i entered manually numeric value and press a button to add the current value in my datagrid column row.First time its not effected in datagrid column.But when i clicked second time value effected in my datagrird column. How i can get manually entered value in datagrid column on first click of button.
protected function id_btnAdd_mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { { edlColor = new EDLColor(); edlColor.ColorToString = "rgb(0,0,0)";
I need a small help in Flex Numeric Stepper validation.I have setted a min value to 1 and max value to 10, Now my requirement is when ever user can enter a value other than the range between 1 - 10, i want to display an alert saying "please enter the val's between 1 and 10". I want this scenario to be success in all possible event listeners like Keyboardevents/mouseevents/default numeric stepper events. Actually i am failing to produce an alert if i typed the value as "0". Other than this everything is fine.
I have to put 2 numeric stepper components in one column of a datagrid. I suppose I need to write my own item renederer code for that. How to write a code for putting 2 numeric stepper components in one coulmn of datagrid.
The 2 numeric steppers would work as time (Hour and Min) components. I cannot use readily availabel time components, and hence have to write something of the above for my own time component.
Does anyone know an Actionscript equivalent of the javascript getElementsByClassName.
What I would like to do is add a custom 'stylename' to various components which I can then use to get a collection of these objects and therefore process their visibility property.
The idea is I want to hide various components based on what roles a logged in user has - I just want to make this flexible by adding an array of rolenames to a custom property or use the stylename property on a Canvas or Panel etc.
I have a collection in Flex and I have sorted it by a date field, so the latest elements appear first in my view.
In order to do this I have applied a sort field like so:
var articleSort:Sort = new Sort(); articleSort.fields = [ new SortField('published', false, true), new SortField('id', true, true)]; articles.sort = articleSort; articles.refresh();
Now I want to be able to use a cursor to findFirst() in that collection based on the id. However in order to do that I have to also pass through the published date in the findFirst() method. This is a real pain as I don't have the published date at that time, (or it's expensive to get).
As you can see I am having to get it from the modelLocator in my application, and basically look up the item...
Ideally I would like to pass a wildcard though for the date in the FindFirst() function, as the id is the only thing I care about when searching. However it seems it Flex I can't do that.
The other option that occurred to me is to resort the collection before searching, but that would cause my view to re-render (as it's bound to the collection) on the collections refresh event. Plus it seems rather silly to have to resort in order to search.
