I'm creating a HTML Component in Flex, loading a URL and then capturing that element and converting it to a bitmap to try and replicate a sort of automatic screenshot saving process.However the bitmaps that it is producing do not contain any flash elements from the HTML.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to get the bitmap data from a component using ActionScript? I dynamically load an image. onComplete I create a Flex Image component and add the loaded image to the source

Later I want to create a new Image component and get the bitmapData from the first Image. I have tried this canvas.getChildAt(0) Which seems to give me the Image, but I can not figure out how to get the bitmap data. canvas.getChildAt(0).bitmapData; gives me a compile error "... undefined property" how ot get the bitmap data so I can use it in my new Image component?
I am trying to take images I am placing in a flex canvas component to a bitmap. I was able to get to the point where I'm not getting an error but then no image shows up and the image I save out as a jpg is blank. I imagine I'm not setting the bitmap data correctly but can't figure out what I am doing wrong.
Here is the code where I am converting it to a bitmap:

I can't seem to find anything in Adobe's documentation about accessing the HTML of a web page through the HTML component in AIR.
I've looked into "domWindow", but that seems to only return Javascript.
Is there a property I can access that has the whole of the HTML in string format or do I need to use URLLoader or something like that?
Is there a way to display a web page in a flex component like Canvas, Hbox or TextArea?

I'm loading a webpage inside a HTML component in AIR. By default, when something is clicked the next page is loaded inside the HTML component itself. I want the links from that page to open in an external web browser.
View 1 RepliesI have the following component in an AIR application from Flex 4:
<mx:HTML id="viewObject"
x="10" y="42" width="634" height="313"
location="http;//localhost:8080/mypage.php" />
Now I want to run a javascript when the page loads but the javascript isn't inside the target page. I want to run the following javascript:
javascript:alert('Hello world.');
I tried approaching it by setting the location property again to the javascript after the page has loaded like below.
<s:Button x="10" y="10" label="Button">
<s:click>

View 1 RepliesI have a component "child" which has a cancel button. Now this component is placed in a state called "newChildComp" I also have another component called "parent". In the parent component, i have a button that dispatches an event. Here is the event code:
[Code].....
so, basically,i am checking to see if the cancel button component in the Child component, while i am still in the parent Compoent, was clicked, if it was clicked, call the cancelButtonHandler. The problem is by the time the addNewChild handles the event, that cancel button was still null. My question is how do i solve this without using the itemCreationPolicy on the cancel button?
I'm working on a Flash game and I'm using button components in the UI. I like that the key functionality is built into them and that they are fairly easy to skin. The problem is, I need to be able to skin them with a bitmap (specifically a PNG) using AS3. I've found a couple of Flex frameworks out there that might help but we're not using Flex in our development process.
View 4 RepliesAfter setting an control's location to some site. How could I then take a peek at the associated HTML? I notice that as soon as I set Location, htmlText becomes null and vice-versa... So how would one go about looking at the HTML displayed in the control in TEXT form?
View 2 RepliesNot really looking for a code example here, just an idea of what I should start looking into.
So here's the question.
Is it possible to change the HTML, or even run javascript into an HTML component after load?
I would of course need to have a listener, and when it fires, then do... something.
Do you know what that might be?

View 1 RepliesI'm building a top view 2D map, that it's objects are stored on the server.The kind of objects are 10 and might be a photo, label, button, lists, mix of them or labels with tooltips.The component must request the "areas" that are missing on screen.An area is 1000x1000 px and is cached in flex.To move in the map, will be like in google maps (drag-and-drop).I should be able to have another list and move objects from one to another using drag-an-drop on objects. Ex.: I grab an objects from a list and I move it on this map, I release the mouse button and the item is placed there.Now the problem is: I build a custom component for this trying to emulate the item renderer for performance and recyclage, implement drag-and-drop on objects and request the areas that are missing?
or
I extend the List component from spark and I add some features as multiple kind of itemrenderers and use recycle on them. Of course it must be able to request the missing areas on the screen and cache it's data.Maybe create a custom layout is needed too.What I need is something that must be really fluid, so the lighter this component is, the better.
UPDATE: *There will be not any object over another.
*I will not use hitTest on bitmaps because all bitmaps are wrapped in another component,as they,for now are itemrenderers.
Anyway I already begin to do this using a class that extends the SkinnableDataContainer and a custom layout. As the layout is not like a grid, is sparse, random items at diferent points(x, y).How to get the localX and localY, relative to item renderer and not to the Spark List, from a DragEvent in Flex 4?
I have two components. One is called "InsideComp" and one is called "OutsideComp". OutsideComp has InsideComp as one piece of its component, and in my main MXML file, I have embedded an instance of OutsideComp. How do I access a public variable of InsideComp within my main MXML file?In Actionscript, I could just do something like:OutsideComp.InsideComp.valToChange = 5; But I dont know how to do it in MXML. I know this is probably an easy question.

I'd like to use a button within a component to remove it. So, you click it and the component is gone. But, I haven't figured out how you reference the component from within the component. What should I put in click=""?

I have a window on my Flash stage that has some scrollable copy in it. The problem is, I can't seem to have any formatting for the text ... if I select a word or two to make bold, it all turns bold. I gather I need to use the "Display Text as HTML" checkbox and then paste in some HTML formatted text but this doesn't seem to work. I searched this forum and found that others were designating "htmlText" in Actionscript instead of just "text" ... that didn't work either. I probably just did it wrong, or maybe it's becuase I'm using the UI component "UIscrollBar" for it's scrolling of the text.
Is there anything else I need to do to be able to format some text with strong tags and maybe some href links?
I have my properties inspector with the following check marks:
Display as HTML

I'm trying to do to familiarize myself with flash. I'm loading an external XML document into a Flash AS2 project using the XMLComponent. I'm able to get everything to display properly within my lists except for my hyperlinks.
I've enclosed my hyperlinks in the XML document using the <![CDATA[hyperlink]]>. Once the movie launches.....the full URL tags are being displayed: (eg. <a href="http://www.google.com">Google</a> )
My hyperlinks are in there own seperate List component.
I've actaully got all of this working.All I need now is to make the comboBox text HTMLtext so that I can use the HTML tags to color the text different colors or bold them.It might be important to mention that I need to change only some of the things listed, not the entire list. So if my list on the comboBox is "item 1", "item 2", "item 3", "item 4", I only want "item 1" in bold and colored red.
