Flex :: Update Datagrid Automatically In Actionscript Without Mouse Events?
Jun 25, 2011
Im working with a flex application that pulls data from a java class file using message handler event. The received message string is added to ArrayCollection. The string consists of codeID and other values related to codeID. Had displayed the detail in a datagrid. The codeID is randomly generated and is pushed to flex for every second. Now, the problem is, I needa update the datagrid cell values, for instance, if i have pushed codeID's of (0001,0007,0005,0003) to the front end, that displays the corresponding values of each codeID in the datagrid, second instance of (0001) should update records in the existing row of (0001). I tried to check the existence of codeID in ArrayCollection using search algorithm, but dont know how to proceed further.

I have a custom <mx:DataGrid /> that is updated with data from a ColdFusion server every 60 seconds. I've noticed that every time the DataGrid updates and redraws the scroll position is reset to the top.
Is there a way I can preserve the scroll position for my DataGrid?

In my Flex Project using Cairngorm, I have a model that stores a bindable ArrayCollection displayed by a DataGrid. My problem occurs when the model is updated by the responder (from a Java service, after an "update" event), because the focus located in a cell of the DataGrid is lost (the scroll position il also lost). So, I retrieve the position before the update, with DataGridEvent.ITEM_FOCUS_IN event :
myModel.focusedCell.rowIndex = e.rowIndex;
myModel.focusedCell.columnIndex = e.columnIndex;
But, from where restore these parameters ? How to trigger this update only when the model is updated ?

I have a Datagrid that is being populated by an ArrayCollection (rows) of Arrays (columns).I need to update the headerText of each column based on a List that will correspond with the total number of items within each array in the arraycollection. What is the best way of doing this? I know that I can set a listener in the List and update the headerText using (matrixDatagrid.columns[i] as DataGridColumn).headerText but I am looking for a cleaner solution.

The checkboxes are updated correctly when I select one or more datagrid rows but when I select a checkbox for the first time the checkbox does not refresh until the pointer moves out of the datagrid row. How can I fix this?

OK I have an AdvancedDataGrid. The data I feed it is XML that looks like this:
<stat associate="Sam Smith" date="07/08/09" customer="James Frank"/>
<stat associate="John Doe" date="09-07-08" customer ="Amanda Jones"/>
<stat associate="John Doe" date="09-07-09" customer ="Henry Scott"/>
But I am grouping by associate so it ends up looking like a tree like this:

How can i update multiple cells of the same row changing the value of a single cell of the same row ??
Example: id, height, weight, fat percentage, corporal mass. When i change one of the values in a row (except id of course) the corporal mass cell value must change using a formula like: (height/weight2)*fat percentage*100. Is this posible with Datagrid or AdvancedDatagrid in Flex ??
I tried using custom item renders and inserting actionscript code inside the datagrid with no good result.

I have a component A in my flex project where people can vote for their favourite artist. Someone "likes" an artist, it get's updated in my database. There is also a component B that shows a chart of the most liked artists. I call the data from the database on creationcomplete in Flex. The problem is that when a person first votes on an artist, it will not be visible in the datagrid untill the user reloads the main page (?) or reopens the entire application. So i was wondering how i can update the datagrid everytime someone adds a vote to my database. I'm now using an update button, but that's not very user friendly of course.

To situate things I am working on a translation utility with a datagrid having 3 columns : translation code, reference text and target text.
The DataGrid's dataProvider property is bound to an ArrayCollection instance. The user can edit the grid and on a successful edit, the underlying collection is updated using the setItemAt() method. The collection also has a filter function to make it easier to find certain texts.
When the user clicks the 'apply filter' button the filter function is updated. This works well. The problem I have is that rows are hidden as soon as the underlying collection item change in a way that doesn't comply with the filter. The row is hidden immediately, which is not very user friendly. Rows should only hide (or be shown) when the 'apply filter' button is pressed.

I have an AdvancedDataGrid that uses HierarchicalData to display data in a tree format. For one of the columns, I'm using an AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider to conditionally display an image if certain conditions are met. I'm currently using the ToolTipManager to display additional information if the user mouses over the image.Here's what I would like to do:Instead of showing the toolTip when the user places their mouse over the image, I would like to automatically display the toolTip whenever the image is visible in the AdvancedDataGrid. If the user scrolls through the AdvancedDataGrid, the toolTip should move and follow along with its image accordingly.
Sample AdvancedDataGrid:
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid id="myAdvancedDataGrid"
displayItemsExpanded="true"

I want the selectedIndex to remain the same. So, if I delete item 2, the next in the list should be selected. The problem is that if I delete item 2, item 3 will be selected and I have no idea why.

I am looking to provide some UI functionality using the mouse- I have two distinct UI events to be achieved via mouse
a) change value
b) delete object
I don't seem to have sufficient mouseclick events for both. I am avoiding using the right click as it has some default options(whose signing off will affect the whole project- not just this). I have mouse click used for change value- how do I use the doubleclick as the single-click events seems to get invoked prior?

Right now all the sounds (78 of them) on my guitar play using the roll_over event but that doesn't give the user much control over what sound is played.
The actionscript im using to play my sounds is this;
for(var i:uint = 0; i < buttonArray.length; i++){
buttonArray[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, buttonRolledOver);
}
[Code]....
What i want to do is only play a sound with the roll_over event when the left click is held down.

I have a project with an XML Connector that goes out and gets data from an xml file and displays it in a label in my flash. It does this when the swf file loads using ActionScript in frame 1. The ActionScript is simply: this.labels_xc.trigger(); It loads the data from the XML file no problem. But the data in the XML file changes every so often. How do I get the swf file to go out and get the new data on a regular interval (say every 2 minutes or so)? I've looked at scripts with timers and I can't figure it out. Here is the url to the page I'm testing it on:[URL]

I am trying out the following code, so that whenever I make a movieclip null, the array containing it's reference too becomes null. I understand the following code cannot do this, but I want somehow, the array can provide information, if the movieclip has got null.
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
var a_arr:Array = new Array(a_Mc,b_Mc);
trace(a_arr);
a_Mc= null ;
trace(a_arr);
Output is:
[object MovieClip],[object MovieClip]
But I want something like null, [object MovieClip ]

I want to replicate the standard startDrag/stopDrag events with my own routine to alter things a bit, and I run into some kind of event propagation or bubbling problem. Here is my code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute"
mouseDown="mouseDown = true" mouseUp="mouseDown = false"
[Code].....
The problem with this code is that as you drag the object to the right, you will see in the trace that occasionally some random localX values arrive there, resulting in the object jerking from side to side.

im working on:[code]For more detailed comprehension: corner is the black corner with the (i) and 'Promotion', text is some random text that can be displayed in the white remaining space, container contains corner and text, and finally this class contains container!I need to retrieve the event mouseevent.rollover/rollout from corner.And what's wrong?
1. When I put the mask on container (container.rawchildren.addchildren + container.mask = mask) and the dropshadowfilter on container (container. filters = [glow]), I cannot detect the mouse events.
2. When I put the mask on the promopanel (this.rawchildren.addchildren + this.mask = mask) and the dropshadowfilter on promopanel (this.filters = [glow]), I cannot detect the mouse events.
3. When I put the mask in a component and the filter in another, it does not work either.
4. If I remove the mask OR the filter, it works!! But I need them both...
So, does anyone has an idea on how to make this work? I've been trying to look for issues with filters, masks and mouseevents but haven't found anything that could enlighten this issue.

I am implementing an application timeout feature (flex4). What I am finding is that mouse and keyboard events, which I have listened to with :
FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, resetLastActivity);
FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, resetLastActivity);
are being masked by the existence of any popup windows. The code is in a component, in the constructor. The component is added to the main application in the block.
How can I get these system generated events to not get stopped by PopUpManager display objects?

Is this the most efficient way to listen to mouse events on the background of a group?
<s:Group width="200" height="100" rollOver="group1_rollOverHandler(event)" rollOut="group1_rollOutHandler(event)">
<s:Rect width="100%" height="100%">
<s:fill>
<s:SolidColor alpha="0"/>
</s:fill>
</s:Rect>
</s:Group>
seems pretty minimal, but alpha = 0 is not the most efficient thing out there.

I have made a hierarchy in which there is a main page, using add element i have attached a component mxml of type group. There is a single button on main page when clicked it should add children of type group in that group type mxml component along with two buttons. Now using one of buttons i am attaching another component mxml type group. the problem is even they overlap i can still excess the children groups of first group component mxml.

If my understanding of Flex is correct, skins in Flex are just DisplayObjects that are added as children to UIComponents to create the visual representation of the object. But if my understanding of the Flash event model is correct, if there is a non-transparent DisplayObject on top of another, mouse events will go to the topmost DisplayObject. The overlapped DisplayObject won't receive any mouse input.
So how is it that skinned Flex UIComponents work at all?

I have a BorderContainer with some instances of spark Line. I need to select this lines by clicking on this. But adding event mouse click listener fails. ASdoc [URL] says that line have only activate and deactivate events. Any best way to detect whether line clicked (use another line class?). I think that catching of clicks in the bordercontainer is bad solution.

I have a Group on my View, and i'm trying to fill it with some collor and add an mouse event on it, all dynamicaly.the problem is, when i add the mouse event, the group simply turns invisible again. It still exists on the view and responds normally to the mouse event, but i cant see it.here's an code example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" title="HomeView" creationComplete="onCreationComplete()" >[code]......
without the mouse event, the group is visible, but it vanishes when i try to add it. i've tried with other events, like the ENTER_FRAME Event and it works normaly, but all the mouse events that i tried turn the Group invisible.i've actually solved my problem using the opaqueBackground property, the Group don't vanish when i add the event this whay. But now i'm curious about the reason of this behavior.
