Somewhere in the internets I stumbled across some kind of inline function for setting the color of a label.Something like this:color="{data >0 ? 0x006600 : 0xFF0000}Basically, this is exactly what I need in my ItemRenderer, but in an if-else if-else way.The script above says data > 0 then set color to green, else set it to red. What I need is an additional case, that is no change set color to gray.Is that accomplishable with this sort of "inline" function?
I am working on a custom Flex 4 component which is an aggregation of two existing flex components. I would like to be able to specify my own custom properties for the component as well as access the existing public subcomponent properties via MXML. For instance I might want to adjust the font color or style for the label and text input. toy component which aggregates both a label and a text input:
I would like to include an MXML file in my MXML file in the same way you can include an external file in AS3 using the include directive. Using the include directive brings the code from the external file into the original file at compile time placing it in the same scope. For example,
giving a function reference in the result attribute of the HTTPService class like this :
protected function httpserviceCheckUpdate_resultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void { var version:Number = event.result.text.version as Number;[code]....
If both of them are same then how can I provide the event parameter using the second approach (as written in the result attribute of the httpservice class)? Which one of them is the better way of doing things in FLEX.
I'm having a problem that has been really getting to me for the last 12 hours or so and I can't seem to find the answer anywhere. I know it's something simple, but I just don't know the correct syntax.
I've got a Flex Application in Flash Builder 4 with a file called "Test.mxml" which looks like this (simplified):
Does MXML get compiled down to as3 and then converted to flash bytecode? Also, is there a significant performance penalty to compiling mxml vs compiling as3?
I am trying to override a Button class, i have a few properties which i wish directly initialise with the mxml description of the component, like :[code]which function is triggered ( in order to override it ) when all properties with mxml description is fully initialised with their values ?
I currently have a basic application where we have multiple buttons, which have functions activated by "click" event listeners on those buttons. The issue is that each button does more or less the same function; just the data that is loaded for each button is different. How do I make it so I'm able to recycle the same function? In Javascript or AS3 something along these lines would be done...
But that's obviously not how it works. I've tried trouble shooting the issue but haven't been able to find anything. It works when I have each button having its own function, but that seems really silly and shouldn't need to be done.
What I'd like to do: create an MXML component with some children, then extend it via MXML to create a new component with more children, without losing the original set.In other words
create a component bc.mxml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <s:BorderContainer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
A Flex components values are initlized by init methord. In an application flow, How to refresh a mxml component data value ; as init is callled at the start up it self only.
eg. of mxml componet may be as simple as button label or text as complex as repeater whose data provider is a web service ( means a fresh quesy should be made to pull the data and refresh the dataprovider of repeater )
suppose i have 3 buttons(for example say, productin, marketing, sales ) on my main.mxml..once i click on one button it should take me to abc.mxml page with production data, once again if i click on second button it should take me to the same abc.mxml but with marketing data. same as for 3rd button also, how can i achieve this ?
Is there any way to create a textInput box for flex mobile with inline image without using textflow ?Basically i need a text input component , so that user can just use it as normal text input box but to it images can also be entered inline with text. To enter images user can select the image from list and that image will get inserted at the current cursor position.
I have a datgrid with two inline item renderers. The dataprovider for my DG is a nested object (objects within objects within objects i.e 3-layered). Main Object - 1st Level
[Code].....
I use 2 item renderers (one for each datagrid column) which loops thro the 2nd level object1 and 2 respectively (the 2nd level object is a dynamic array of objects, in that the number of objects within keep changing). Within the item renderer I loop thro the 2nd level object using a foreach and then display the data. The data is a linkbutton, which when clicked , calls a remote object function to delete the data from the database
now on the result event of the remote object function call, i call the function to repopulate the DG, so that the updated data is displayed. When i click on the linkbutton in the first row, the backend works perfectly fine (the data gets deleted from the database and the refreshed data is sent back), but for some reason, the deleted data suddenly appears in the 2nd row. When i delete it from the second row, it appears on the 3rd row (nothing happens in the backend since the data is already deleted).. and so on, till it appears on the last row and then the DG looks exactly the way it shld have looked after the first delete.
This is just the beginning. The second item renderer also displays a linkbutton, which when clicked, displays that data in the previous column (the one where this data can be deleted). When i click on 1st row, the data gets added in the previous column of the second row. and so on.. Basically, my DG is acting really weird. I overrided the set data function in the item renderer to refrsh the data and called its invalidateDisplayList. I also call the Datagrid's invalidateDisplayList function after each refresh. The behavior remains the same.
I've been trying to create a custom mxml component that extends another custom mxml component (i.e.MyMXMLComponent -> BaseMXMLComponent -> Group). I've been reading that trying to add visual children to MyMXMLComponent caused error with Flex 3 but that's no longer the case with Flex 4.
What I want to know is whether this is a supported/fixed/documented feature of Flex 4? or just some undefined behavior in Flex 4 that may get changed with future updates?
if this is supported and documented feature, does anyone have link pointing to adobe document stating it as such?
How to style parts of the tooltip e.g. bold? I'm generating a tooltip in an itemrenderer for an datagrid, displaying the column name and then the value: I want to display the value bold...
public override function set data(value:Object):void { var dg:DataGrid = this.listData.owner as DataGrid;[code].....
I am still very new to Actionscript and have an okay working knowledge of Flex. I am working on an AIR application that runs a SQLite database underneath. The database is only 3 tables (projects, items and types). I was wondering if Actionscript best practices are to use a data access object or layer to store all of my database functions or to just run them inline as needed. I would assume an access layer would be best for interacting with the database for usability, but I can't seem to find much documentation for SQLite in AIR.
I have a problem with inline components. I want to reach an inline component from another one.. From the first component, i want to change "enable" value of the linkbutton named "Add" which is in second component. Altough i gave "id" and "className" to second one, i could reach neither it nor its elements.. is there a way to do this?
*in first component there is a text input in "CodedDescriptionItemEditor" component. I want to validate it and according to validation enable the button that i mentioned above..These all are in a datagrid by the way. In datagrid, there is always a row that you can enter data and via the "Add" button you can save it. After save it seems as text..
This is a project I'm working on for a simple demo tutorial application in Flex. I am using mxml pages. You can see to the left that I will have my main application and then other mxml files (In the Examples Package) as the examples that will be loaded into the main application mxml. How can I dynamically pull the value from the object in the list to load the child mxml file into the container that I have further down in the application?
I am trying to turn labels red when they can no longer be added to a list because of size requirements. The renderer works but Flex creates a separate component. I can't think of any good way to get that value to the new component.[code]
I hope I have worded the question ok. I know that you can pass the 'id' of the component but I'm just wondering if there is a more generic way. I have tried using 'this' (shown in example below) but the 'this' keyword refers to the application.
I'm trying to remove the tooltip from the checkbox inside an inline itemrenderer in a datagrid but I still get the tooltip box but with nothing in it. I want the tooltip box removed completely.[code]
