Flex :: What Is The Purpose Of XxScrollPosition In LayoutBase For A List
Sep 1, 2010
When writing a custom layout for a List, what considerations need to be given for using the horizontalScrollPosition / verticalScrollPosition properties on the LayoutBase class itself (as opposed to the corresponding properties on the layoutTarget)
Looking at the HorizontalLayout class as an example, it always references and updates layoutTarget.horizontalScrollPosition. Is the horizontalScrollPosition of the LayoutBase class ever referenced / used?
What's the relationship between the property on the layout instance, vs the property on the layoutTarget instance, and when should each be used?

I'm trying to make a variation on Array for a very specific purpose. When I have the following:
public class TileArray extends Array {
// Intentionally empty - I get the error regardless
}
Why can't I do this?
var tl:TileArray = [1,2,3];
despite the fact that I can do this
var ar:Array = [1,2,3];
The error I receive is this: Implicit coercion of a value with static type Array to a possibly unrelated type

Here is a snip from within my code:
[Code]...
The 'recommendations' dataProvider is an ArrayCollection of String, which are generally sentences about as long as this one. By setting the variableRowHeight and wordWrap properties as shown, if a sentence is too long to fit on a single line, everything works fine- the row expands and the messages show on two lines, or occasionally three.
The space allocated for this panel within the entire canvas means if the total text size of 'recommendations' exceeds six lines, I need for the entire list scroll. This is also working just fine. The trouble is when using the mouse wheel to do the scrolling- Flex scrolls both the entire list and the single item where the mouse is hovering. Often this results in only the second half of a sentence being visible. Non-programmer friends I have asked to look at this noticed this, and tell me it as a problem. If a user does not notice the dual scrolling, and sees only a fragment of a sentence, it will be perceived as an error in the application.

When a user selects a category from the first drop down box then i want the 2nd drop down to be updated based on the selection of the first drop down. I have created multiple ArrayCollections whose names are set to the "data" values of the first drop down, for instance:
[Bindable]
public var countries:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
{label:"USA",data:"USA"},

I'm trying to animate a list as I delete the top row. All the examples I can find use itemsChangeEffect to bind to the effect, but this property exists only in MX lists, not spark lists.
Any idea how I can get the same effect done in Spark Lists?
I'm trying to remove the top most item in the list with a slight fade out effect before the rest of the items move up to replace the gap.

The traditional way to assign an icon would be to use the icon field of the item renderer,which reads the value of "icon" property in your data, for example:
listData.addItem({label: "Logout", icon: "com.classpth.DefualtThemeLogoutIconClass"});
But i want the DefualtThemeLogoutIconClass to changed to another class: ightThemeLogoutIconClass when the theme is changed.The only way to do this would be to use a style declaration containing a classReference to the icon, and change its the value in each of the CSS files of the various themes.The question is, is there any way to assign this style to an icon in a List, something as easy as intuitive as list[0].getIcon().setStyle("styleName");

The use I have for it is for storing user credentials, and calling a transfer object that functions as a sort of "cache" for the current session in all of the flex modules.
Thinking about objects that have to be present in every module. Is there any alternative to a singleton instance for this?

I am trying to use an existing link with a flash file that is functional to also link to another page at the same time. Basically I am using Joomla and I have a flash file that has menus and pictures and such. I want to be able to click on a link within the flash file and still have it do its given function of pulling up an image or opening another menu or whatever the current function of that link is. The problem I am having is that I also want this link when clicked to navigate to a specific url to show aditional content on one of the Joolma pages.when one of the links in the flash file is click and it pulls up a specific image within the flash file.I want it to also pull up text or other content below my flash file that goes along with the image.

I am currently migrating from RubyAMF to PyAMF. In RubyAMF you can return a FaultObject deliberately like so:
render :amf => FaultObject.new("Thats not your pie!")
Is there comparable functionality in PyAMF? I've searched the docs and can't find any mention of it.

If you want to use content on another server, that server needs to host a crossdomain.xml file allowing access. If this file isn't there, flash won't let you access it. Given that it's easy enough to just write a proxy (say a php script that curls the external URLs) what is the purpose of this restriction? It seems that the content is still 100% available to external people, but there is just one extra hoop to jump through.

whats the purpose of having to have an extra class such as abstract class in Flash where the methods has no implementation,but the subclasses declare those implementations.The advantage of having the methods declared in subclass than the superclass is that it would not affect the other subclasses when there are certain changes.That makes me wonder, isn't it better not to extend(inherit) empty methods but directly create a class as its own? unless there is something that the child could use from parent.Anyone could give me examples of how applicable using abstract classes/interfaces?

I'm using Actionscript. I'm currently working on a small game - In the game, I'm using a global variable called _global.battle to track, at where the player is (more difficult battles are being unlocked with story progression). I want the player to get from a town to a map where - depending on the variable, a certain number of battle locations is selectable. I put the following code on the button that let's you access the map:
ActionScript Code:
gate_btn.onPress = function(){
if (_global.battle = 1){gotoAndStop("map",1);}
else if (_global.battle = 2){gotoAndStop("map",2);}
else if (_global.battle = 3){gotoAndStop("map",3);}
else if (_global.battle = 4){gotoAndStop("map",4);}
else if (_global.battle = 5){gotoAndStop("map",5);}
}
My problem is the following: if I switch the variable to 2 (or higher), the button ignores this and sends me to "map",1 - and assigns the variable the value 1 again. I have no idea why it does that. I don't have any other code with this variable except in my title screen, where I give it the value 1 and on another screen, where I give it the value 2 (by doing this: _global.battle = 2;).

Can someone explain to me why they're so beneficial to have been added to CS4/CS5? Except I understand that movie clip symbols can be adjusted using the 3D tools but is that the only difference?

I'm building a networked client app with Flash Builder, and would like to be able to set environmental variables or #define's such as server's hostname and port. For debugging purposes I want to connect the client with different servers (and for other devs too). In C/C++ I'd define TEST_PORT=8888 or something in the IDE or build environment, that way I wouldn't need to commit a settings file along with the client. But not sure what's the standard for Flash Builder.

I'm looking for a really really small linux distribution or process of making my own that's sole purpose is to get an air application to launch full screen and stay there; Essentially I'm building a home kitchen computer that runs entirely as an AIR app.
I have looked into using windows xp; and windows xp embedded but they pose so many issues I figured I'd try modern linux.
I have also seen TinyCore Linux which looks interestingly small but not sure what issues that poses in regards to running AIR and "hardware" accelerated display. I've also thought about stripping down an Ubuntu installation but I'm sure somebody must have done this already; google is just failing me right now.

I want to create a list of progress bars and update the list accordingly.I have group data in an Array as
<mx:Array id="arr">
<mx:Object label="Group One" min="0" max="200" currentValue="60" />
<mx:Object label="Group Two" min="0" max="300" currentValue="50" />[code]....
The values in the array object indicate name of group,minimum,maximum and current value for the group (to be used in progressbar).I used the list with "mx.controls.ProgressBar" as itemRenderer as
<mx:List width="100%" dataProvider="{arr}"
itemRenderer="mx.controls.ProgressBar"/>
Now what I need is whenever currentValue field of Array "arr" changes i want to update the progressbar "progress" value to currentValue (where min and maximum value of progressbar are stored in Array "arr").

I'm a bit confused with the purpose of these programs. For example if I want to create a game or utility app that runs on air. Can I design it in Flash Professional and later open in Builder for more heavy coding? Or is Catalyst supposed to be used as the design program?
I used to think that you design stuff in Flash Professional and then open the project up in Builder to do more deep coding.
