Flex :: Passing Data Into Tabbed Views?
Apr 18, 2011
I have a project that has 4 views where I'm using the tabBar with viewStack/NavigatorContent. I have a couple HTTPServices set up gathering the XML and converting to Bindable ArrayCollections. When and how is the best way to pass that data to such things as charts, dataGrids, etc. that aren't seen until the user clicks a tab? Right now I have each item set up with creationComplete functions that pass it then. Although it seems to be working, is this the best way, or is there something better and maybe even quicker?

I have a SplitViewNavigator with two split views. In one of the views I have a list and in another one I have questions. User must solve the question and when user click send button, he will see another question.
But when user click to send button in one view, how can i know this in the other view? I'm a newbie in Flash Builder and I'm searching for this for hours.

how I would pass a value to "SelectedChild" in ViewStack:
In the example below, I am trying to set a public property in a form called "register" after I have navigated there from another form called "login".
The result I get seems to be a compilation error:
Error: Access of possibly undefined property pagename through a reference
with static type mx.core:INavigatorContent.
vsMain.selectedChild.pagename = "register page";

I'm used to building applications using pure AS3. I always pass dependencies into the constructor of classes I make, but this method seems to not work out well for Flex MXML views. It seems like I should define setters on the MXML class, which map to attributes in the tag/class instantiation. But using this method I cannot specify which properties are required and in what order I expect them etc. What is the preferred method to give a Flex view it's dependencies?

I have a list of txt files and when one is selected it is read and assigned to a string variable. this string is then pushed to a view : pushView(viewer, string), where the string is displayed in a textarea. I want to also pass the relative path of the file also. Is this possible to pass two strings?

We can pass data to the next view while using navigator.pushview, but the data is lost when the back button is clicked (popview).
I have views that make remote calls and I want to keep the data when the user navigates back to the view using the back button so I don't have to make a remote call again.
Is there a way to set a global variable that's accessible from all views, or a way to retain data when a user navigates back to a view using the back button?

My app has 3 categories of buttons, I want to have a tabbed panel I can use to switch between the 3 categories like in this example:
My app is a mobile app though so I can't use mx components. When I try searching for mobile tabbed navigation etc., I come up with only viewnavigator examples.

I am working on a Flex TabbedViewNavigatorApplication with three tabs (ViewNavigator elements). I would like to switch from one ViewNavigator to another based upon a user action (via ActionScript code).I know that switching between Views uses pushView and popView, but I'm working with ViewNavigators, and my searching revealed nothing useful.I'm trying to switch from Tab2 to Tab1 when an event occurs. In this case, Tab2 contains a list, and when the user makes a selection, I want to jump back to Tab1.
<s:TabbedViewNavigatorApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

I have an sqlite db in an application and am stuck on how to pass the data that is retrieved from the db into multiple textboxes. I can get the first selection passed into the components just fine, but my problem comes in when I try to pass a second data selection into a different textbox while keeping the data from the previous selection the same in the first textbox.Basically, the user selects a recipe and that recipe is passed into textbox 1 Then another recipe is selected and that recipe is passed into textbox 2. *The recipes are selected from a different view, if that adds anything to the problem. After being selected, the view is returned to where the textboxes are.I'm not looking for someone to code this for me, but rather on how I would do it. I should be able to do that. =)My Text Components
<s:Group id="group1" x="412" y="156" width="200" height="206" contentBackgroundAlpha="1.0" >
<s:TextInput id="tText1" x="22" y="30" width="157" height="25" fontSize="12"
text="{data.kTitle}"/>

I have a main mxml file (flex4) and want to pass a parameter (user_name) to a component in a directory called components. When I run the program, the user_name is NOT being sent from the main to the component file. (Interestingly, if you make the component visible, you can see the parameter has been passed).
I have hacked much larger files down to get the following two files:
Main
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" minWidth="955" minHeight="600"

Im a complete beginner in Flex programming. I have an application with a main .mxml file, and a certain class Foo that I call from the .mxml. In Foo, I make a URLRequest and listen for the Complete event. Then I found myself with the returned data in a Foo function, but I have no idea how to communicate it to the .mxml part of the application ! I looked into ArrayCollections but I can't seem to understand how they work. Isn't there a way to modify, from inside the class, a variable with a global scope ?

I know that the best way to make a connection from my main app to my modules is through interfaces.
So, my problem is, how can I implement an interface so my module can send and receive data from my main app?, cuz, I understand that my module implements an interface that is used by my main app.. but, can I do it "viceversa"?
Other issue I have is, why do I need to call my main app children if I can just import a module's class?.

I have a Flex application with three different views. Only one view is shown at a time, and the choice of view depends on what part of the application the user is working with. If it had been an ordinary HTML webapp I would have created three different HTML-templates/pages for each view.
What is the recommended way to handle such application views in Flex?

I'd like to make an application for PlayBook (using Flex) that has the UI similar to the PlayBook web browser. By similar I mean I want to implement a menu that is shown when the user swipes down from the top bezel of the tablet. I like this feature because I can draw on it, place tons of other objects and handle all kind of events without using screen space when not needed. Plus the PlayBook does not have a "Menu" button like some phones have.Depending on configurations chosen from the first view a number of other views will be pushed onto the the stack view. When the user will access the pull down menu I'd like to show in form of thumbnail snapshot my main (configuration view) and the rest of the views that are on the view stack. This will basically show the user what is going on in different view and let him choose to which one to switch.[code]The menu is accessible from any view, but the code for event handler is in my main MXML file (project.MXML), I found this to be the only way of having one menu for all the views. I managed to pull down the menu from any view and displaying a thumbnail of the current view.
How to get access to all the views. I've been trying all day and all my trials give me access to the active view and my menu object. Here is some code to show what is going on:[code]As I mentioned above this for loop will successfully do the job for the current view then it will crash.Does anyone know how to loop through all the views? This is my first application with flex so if there are any alternatives to my approach I'll be glad to try them. Although I'd like to stick with a single ViewNavigator as opposed to tabbed navigator and multiple views instead of states.

I have an ArrayCollection bound to a view, I use a filterFunction on this view to only display parts of the contents. Additionally I have another component where I want to display other parts of the ArrayCollection.
What I would like to do is wrap ArrayCollections around each other, meaning I could have one ArrayCollection containing the model data, and then two separate outer ones where I can set the filterFunction property (setting this in the model seems inappropriate in all cases). Is this possible somehow? If not, how else can this be solved, preferably without forcing model logic to end up in my view?

Often multiple instances of the view component would be used in multiple places in an application. Each time I do this, I register the same mediator with a different name. When a notification is dispatched, I attach the name of the mediator to the body of the notification, like so:

How do you define a global variable that is accessible across all views on Flex mobile / Flex 4.5/4.6
(Edited for clarification)
Is it still necessary to have to use a separate global class?
(additional) There is a new PersistanceManager in Flex 4.5, is there something like a GlobalObjectsManager that can be used to just set/get stuff in memory?

What are the criteria for decomposing a Flex applicaiton to views? I find quite difficult to apply the Single Responsibility Principle in this context.I've come to the following conclusions through my experience:More monolithic approach(e.g. one view per tab, lots of panels in the same tab)Very easy communication between components as only one Presentation Model is used Cannot use multiple States, only on the top level component.More modular approach (e.g. one view per panel)(the opposite to the monolithic one)

I was wondering best practices for views of inherited classes in PureMVC in this situation: Multiple classes inherit a BaseClass (lets say InheritedClass1 and InheritedClass2) Each InheritedClass has a respective view (derived from a base view class, but each unique) With a given dataset (lets say ArrayCollection of InheritedClass1/2 Objects), the respective views need to be dynamically loaded. The dataset is relatively large, so a TileList would be nice (since it only instantiates objects which are currently displayed) I can think of a couple solutions, but I find them to be too "hackish" to be the best solution:
In View: Repeater over a BaseClassView which attributes a view to a State (set to the "InheritedClass1" state to add a InheritedClass1 object) Pros: No unneeded memory increase (States' objects are instantiated when needed) Cons: View is dependent on the data types, so adds coupling In Mediator: Loop over the ArrayCollection and addChild() the views based on data type Pros: Works. Cons: Mediator is adding things to the View, which defeats the point of the separation of Mediator and View. Slower than a Repeater.

I have data model (dataProvider as ArrayCollection) i want to display in few views , each view should show filtered data. As you probably know, filterFunction is property of ArrayCollection,so I can't use this solution (unless creating new instance of ArrayCollection for each view on top original and impementing filterFunction).

I'm looking to create a flashBuilder document which uses seperate MXML files as "views" which are controlled by states - I believe it's a design pattern of sorts but I'm relatively new to FlashBuilder. I was wondering if anyone knew what design pattern it was and if I can be pointed in the direction of some good references! FYI I'm looking into using FlashBuilder to design Android apps

Im trying to use dynamic SQL tables on my PHP server so I need to pass the table name to the PHP script. I don't understand why the Data Management system that sets up CRUD won't allow this extra parameter. It says it can only have one input: item. I can get all records, but when I try to create, update, or delete I get an error.
Or is there another way I can pass the tablename variable to the php file before I call any functions?

We have implemented a Flash photo slideshow on our site and it works just fine for most of our users. Whenever the xml.load(success) returns false I have the Flash email me a debug report. For the life of me I can not find a common thread between all of these people having problems with the Flash. I don't think it's a cross-domain issue because it works for most people, and I have the crossdomain.xml files where they should be.
