Flex :: Best Means Of Displaying 'Select Language' Interface?
Nov 11, 2011
Well, there is a huge debate going on with the "best way to show users language selection", but no answer.All seem to suck. 2 and 3 suffering from "Country != Language", 1 and 4 suffering from "Cognitively, selecting a word out of a list of words sucks."While this question may seem subjective, it is possible to answer this question in a non-subjective way.Such as if Flex or some Flex component exists as a "Language Chooser" such as that found on a mobile device.
i need help with Strings and URL variables.i created lot of languages in Strings panel (xml filesand folders created too).swf?lang=en.i need help with how to add this variable to as3 -using the strings panel from Flash.if .swf?lang=en - then selected language is english "en" write manually to browser if type "fr" like .swf?lang=fr.
i am working on multi language site. all data is comeing from backhand. every thing is going very smoothly and suddenly I got problem. specail [] Character is not displaying in flash
I have a comboBox and values like basic and advanced. And viewstack container conatains 2 grids.When i select the base option in Combobox, the first grid has to be selected. select the advanced value in comboBox, the second grid has to be selected.
Flex 4 Combobox is extended with a Text Input that helps in getting to the item that is searched for.I have created a Check Box as an itemrenderer for this Flex 4 Combobox. I would like to Add a Select All and Select None options in the drop down of the Combobox. I know that i could accomplish by editing the dropdownfactory in case of a Flex 3 Combobox. But in Flex 4 the dropdownfactory doesnt exist.
When we are building a application in Flex the components that we add are in English. Lets say that i want to change then to French, Spanish or Portuguese. How could i do that?? I've google a bit about it, but nothing good. I didn't look too much, because you guys always now things, and here in SO its more faster to ask than search for it : I think i didn't expressed my self correctly.
I am trying to figure out the best way for doing spellcheck in flex application. I need a support of multiple languages, like: english, russian and so on. Also, I don't need a realtime spellchecking, only in some particular moment(for example, user click button: "check my text"). I found clientside solution here - flex:SpellCheck , but looks like it able to check only english text. So now I am thinking serverside solution, that recieve a text and needed language, check it(for example with aspell) and returns result. How do you think: is this a good way or I am missing something?
Something is broken in my Flash Professional CS5, and it's creating a real pain. When I have finished editing a page of TLF text and want to return to the stage, I find the little left arrow Missing In Action.
I'd send you picture of it, but it can no longer be found. Here is an image that I snagged from Adobe TV to give you a rough idea what I'm saying. The difference is that when I was editing a text symbol, ( before it broke ) then its name would be where Scene 1 appears, and the arrow would be strongly visible ( dark blue? ) rather than grayed out like this one is.
When this first happened it took a while to find any way at all of escaping the edit, but I finally found a really clunky way to get out. I have to save then exit the entire .fla file edit session, then come back in and start over.
I'm running Flash Professional CS5 11.0.2.489, apparently 32 bit code under Windows 7 on a 64-bit i7 processor.
Not surprisingly, this creates a big problem for me, since I have a huge amount of work that must be done quickly. I spent the money necessary to purchase what I thought was the best tool on the market, now I need some help to get it working again.
Yeah, I can't workout how to make them swapVis basically. Any more efficient means/methods would be welcomed.I feel like my code is getting too straight up and down and not looking out to make it shorter etc.
I've been searching around forever trying to find a way to make traversing nested display lists more of a 1-line possibility.In AS2 you could grab a clip just by _container.clip1.nestedclip2.nestedclip3 and it was blatently simple.In AS3, is there any way to do that?So far my only methods are keeping a class level reference to important parts of the UI or doing a painful series of getChildByName chains until I drill down to it:[code]The casting makes the getChildByName method possible.
I overheard some watercooler talk the other day and the subject was using the mic as a means to control the interactivity of a flash site.Example: Every sound that the user's mic "hears" results in an event much like clicking on a button to reveal a dropdown menu.
Or: The more you scream, the more popups appear on the site.
When my language is of Asian origin (Japanese, Korean, Chinese, etc) the title appears correctly on the Alert, but the message does not. I'm seeing the correct localization values EVERYWHERE ELSE in my application except the Alert popup and in one other instance on a mx:Checkbox control.
I've checked my app and the strings are being returned from the resourceManager correctly but just aren't rendering to the screen. Does anyone have any insight as to what might be causing this behavior?
I wish to allow content input in some Flex app I'm developing, using a markup language - Wiki markup / bbcode / similar.I'm looking for some library to render in high quality such markup.
Background story: many users (including me) browse the web from notebooks that are not constructed for sound performance. That means (besides other things) that the sound volume for most videos is too low, especially if the video itself is recorded at low volume.
Therefore...
I was wondering if there is any way of increasing the volume of such a video (especially Youtube, but could be extended to other types), because I'm interested in doing it and even publishing it as Firefox/Chrome/other browser plug-in.
I'm sure this is a easy one but I've been searching for a while how to select a DropDownList element with actionscript. In this scenario, I'd like to be able to specify the selectedItem based either on ddlLabel or ddlData
i have an xml which contains 'interface' sub tag, iam converting xml to object using SampleXmlDecoder. compiler did not allow me to access the value of the 'inteface' attrible of the resultobject.
[Code]....
its treating interface as keyword. the solution for this.
It seems that Flex 4.5 can not compile my old AIR applications that implement the IDisposable interface. And how should memory management be done from now on?
In a flex datagrid, by default clicking on column headers does sorting. I want it such that if a user clicks a column header the entire column is selected. I have the datagrid listening for the HEADER_RELEASE event so I know when the column header is clicked.
How can I have the column and header appear highlighted similar to how a row is highlighted when selected?
Say for example, I have an XML file with 100 "person" nodes, and I want the first 30. Or possibly 51 - 100. Is there any way to do this with e4x syntax to return an XMLList?
in my case I click a button. it calls changeTabState() ; it changes the state and then needs to select a tab using selectedIndex. but that does not work properly. If i go back go the main state and click the button again, it works as it should.Button:
I'm trying to get the sibling of an mxml tag similar to the way siblings are selected in javascript. Is this possible in Actionscript? For example, when I click the TextArea with id textarea1, I need it to tell me that the sibling has an id of rect1 so I can do further processing to it.
I have a datagrid. How can I put the focus on a particular row (ie row #5) of a datagrid via actionscript? I'm partially there, but not quite: stage.focus = myDG; This obviously just sets the focus to the datagrid and not the row.
I am overriding the addItem() function of an array collection and I would like to detect if the added item implements a particular interface. Previously I used the, is operator to detect the class type, but now that I am using an interface for classes I would rather test to see if the object implements the interface. I expect I could just try and cast the object as the interface and see if it's not null. Is this the best way to do it? I could also just create a new addFunction() that only accepts objects of the interface type.
I am building a tabbed interface for switching between various similar layers. Each layer will have a number of graphs. By dragging with the mouse the graphs can be rearranged or even moved between layers. My question is, is it best practice to register a unique mediator for each layer that keeps track of the layers content / organization, or should i keep track of it all with one central mediator.some considerations:
the layer contents and organization will be saved(in a db) so that it can be restored when a user comes back to the app.the layers themselves are functionally identical.the user can add and remove layers at will.
