Flex :: Create A PDF Of Web Application Using AlivePdf?
Feb 28, 2011
I have a large web application with verticalScrollBar with few charts and large datagrid. I am planning to create pdf of my web application using AlivePdf.
Right now, Im using below code to creat a pdf of my application, but no luck.
var printView:DisplayObject = new InteractionsAnalysis() as DisplayObject;
printView.width = Application.application.width;
printView.height = Application.application.height;
I have a flex component, a VBox, that has content inside it. Text components mainly.The VBox is holding a report that I want to be able to save to PDF. I am using AlivePdf to achieve this but the PDF produced is blank when viewed in Adobe reader (latest version).When I open the PDF in Notepad++ I can see that there is definitely content in there and the file appears to be structured correctly.This is the method I am using to generate the PDF:
private function doPrint(whatToPrint:UIComponent):void { var printPDF:PDF = new PDF( Orientation.LANDSCAPE, Unit.MM, Size.A4 );[code].....
I need to export charts and data tables to pdf file in flex application.For this we can user AlivePDF but i need to export to local not server.Can we export to local system prompting user to select the location to export?
I'm testing alivePDF 0.1.5 and till now everything's been fine. I'm super interested in the new function writeFlashHTMLText() cause it makes my life so much easier! xD I'm now trying to display the generated pdf in a browser tab/window instead of just saving the file (using the filereference class' save function). I saw that there was a PDF.save() function that allowed that specifying the argument Download.INLINE. However I don't want to use the save function of the pdf class cause I don't want to use a script.
I am creating client side PDF with image using flex and AlivePDF for a web based application. Images have been generated on that pdf but it is creating problem for large size images as half of the image disappeared from that pdf. I am taking the image inside a canvas. How do I control my images so that they come fit on that pdf file for any image size that I take.
I'm trying to create a module for a flex application, and I want to send notifications to clients. I've been looking at the BlazeDS messaging service to push out the notifications to clients, but I want to be able to send certain updates to certain clients. The Flex notification framework doesn't seem to allow this - if we have a field in the message with a value of the user's user id for example, any client could theoretically subscribe to all messages for any given user id, and there's no verification on the server side to make sure that the client that has subscribed is logged in as that user id.Is there something I've missed here, or is the best way to handle this writing my own polling mechanism on the client side?
Is it possible to create a webbrowser inside a Flex (not AIR!) application? I want to display some links in a Flex application and when a user clicks the links, it should open a custom component with some sort of a webbrowsing component. Is it possible?
i am working with Flex for quite sometime. but i hadn't get any chance to even look at Adobe AIR platform. I am planning to do some personal softwares using AIR.
Provided the background that am an absolute zero in AIR, what all should I have in my system apart from Flex builder? And how fast i can learn AIR if I am pretty comfortable in Flex?
I am using flex4, I am seeking the answer to create multi window web application. My application is some sort of complex, currently I only know using PopupManager to create a new window.Should I create each MXML for each window that I want to instantiate? And then load the mxml and put it into the stage? Is there any tutorial describing that? I want the program modular and easy to manager, extend.
The current way I am using is use Group to group up all the controls inside a window, and if user want to open that window, I will display the group and bring it to the front. Is it the right way to do windowing? But I can't support drag.
I want to know if there is any native support for draggable window, or dialog?
Also till now all the controls are put inside a single mxml file, is it possible to put one window(or one group) to be a separate mxml file?
I have a flex application, and I am using a cairngorm structure - src/com/mysite/editor/model/ contains the following two things

I was wondering where the best place to put helper methods is. I need these to be methods I can use outside of the singleton enforced class. Would it make sense to put it in Global Constants? The only thing against that, is I always use EditorGlobalConstants the same way: EditorGlobalConstants.SUPPORT_PHONE An example of a 'helper function' is the following:

I want to create a Custom Scroll bar in my FLEX 3.0 application. Which should enable to use Text instead of |||| that shows in ScrollThumb... I have used mx_internal for changing the style of that but still facing the problem that text is not displayed. here is the code that i have created.
I am trying to create a large flex project. This Project consists of a CORE application, and other sub-applications.The CORE application should contain information that will be shared by all other projects (e.g., link to database, data manager which loads data from the database, application information like height width colors fonts... etc.).
The sub-applications each has a certain task. Each sub-application is a large project by itself so I don't think its a good idea to put all code inside one HUGE project.The CORE project should run the main application, and through a navigation menu, I should be able to click and run other sub-applications.Is there a way to created the CORE application to reference those sub-applications so that I can run them inside of the CORE. At the same time, those sub-applications should reference the CORE applications to get the NetConnection to the database and other important information that they might share?
Does anyone know if there is an option to not create a shortcut to an AIR application after its installation?
Currently, all I have found is an option to choose the location of the application shortcut from within the start menu (in the application descriptor file, using the programMenuFolder option)

I am a Flex/Java developer, in the process of creating a Financial/Trading website for a start-up company.The default look and feel of Flex (out of the box) is pretty plain and bland (in terms of the default styles). Can anybody recommend the easiest way for me (as a developer) to make the website look as polished and professional as possible?
What is am looking for is:
A professional style/theme to the website Use of polished images/icons Use of some Flash components for the intro/welcome page. The quickest way to get this styling/images/icons done - should I outsource this to an on-line company?I have been looking at Flash Catalyst as an option but images need to be created first in Photoshop (which as a product I do not know).
I am trying to use AlivePDF to save a chart into a .pdf file. However, when I try to save my chart, it ends up clipping half of the chart in the pdf so it isn't even fully visible. It seems that the screencapture that AlivePDF took to generate my pdf was too small.I am trying to get a chart from a sample to work with sample code for using alivepdf that I picked off the web.[code]

I am using Flash profassional cs5 and want to create an iPad application but it only allow to make iphone application. It allows to install on iPad but the resolution is very small.
I need to make my Flash application create a connection to a remote application and have the remote application send periodic updates to my Flash animation. The remote app is written in VB 6, and does not support XML sockets. However, I don't need the ability to send or receive XML since I am going to be overriding the onLoad() event anyway.
Or maybe I do need that ability... I'm having trouble getting my onLoad() event to trigger. Right now I'm just testing the onLoad event like this:
[code]...
So, basically I'm trying to find out how I can format the data I'm sending it so that the onLoad() event triggers. I've read that the XMLSocket object listens for the Null byte, so perhaps the data I'm sending it doesn't terminate properly. I need a persistent connection from Flash to the VB app because the VB app will be the one initiating the updates to the Flash application. Is the XMLSocket the way to go here, or is there another class of objects that I'm missing?
I'm developing an application for the Blackberry Playbook using Flash Burrito 4.5 and Flex. I'd like to create a file browser to allow users to load images from the local system into the application. I followed this example [URL] When I click on the Load Image button in the simulator however, the file browser pops up but tells me that "no file was found with the specified filter", even though I don't specify any filter or even if I specify a . filter.
I have a flex application (.swf) and want to create a projector file. When I choose File-> create projector I get the .app file because I work on a Mac. I know I can create both projector formats for windows and mac using the export feature in Flash Professional. But this is not an option since it's Flex.Is there any other way rather than switching to windows to create the file?
I downloaded AlivePDF 0.1.4.8 and 0.1.4.9 from the their site. However, I am having difficulty implement it in CS3 or CS4. The SWC file just won't show as others do.
