Flex :: Detect The Change In HSlider When Value Is Updated?
Jul 6, 2011
Is there a way to detect the value change in HSlider (in Flex 4.0) without touching the slider.Basically, what I wanted is to detect if the slider value was changed programmatically.
I am writing a web application that will serve as a configuration for a random data generator that I have written in Java.The values that I set in this application will write to xml. The xml data is updated by a file called simulationParams.as and that file is added to each child in the "viewStack" so that when I change any of those values the simulationConfig file will be automatically updated.The problem is that when I press the randomizeBtn the proper events are fired and the listeners grab those events.My problem exists when I uncheck the randomize button.For some reason an event is triggered or the listener isnt listening so that when I uncheck randomizeBtn the values go back to their last position or value on the slider. Ex. if my initial value is 0 then press randomize the slider will go to 100. The config file updates and all is well.When I uncheck the randomizeBtn, the sliders value goes back 0 but the config file isnt update.The same thing happens when I press the useDefaultBtn for both selected/unselected, nothing gets updated.[code]
I was wondering if it is possible to make and App capable of listening when the user "adds" new files to a directory.
Example:
The User opens up our Application. The user adds new files on the desktop (using the Microsoft Explorer). Our application automatically detects that new files have been added and executes a function or whatever.
Maybe, this could be done using a programming language like Visual Basic and open the executable with the NativeProcess api and listen for an stdOut event.
I have objects placed on the screen using x/y coordinates. I want a way to update that based on changes in Screen Width/Height. So if used re-sized browser window x/y should change. How do I cick off a function every time the screen is re-sized.
I'm using a hslider to select a range of values. However, I only have 5 values.The problem I'm having is that the dragging of a thumb does not look too good and the values of the thumbs are displayed in labels, beside the slider...I was then thinking about how to improve the look of the dragging and the slider.I came up with this: having an image that would behave like a slider. For example, something like this: a background image (sorry for the "drawing")
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
With 2 thumbs (min and max values) that would stay in the middle of each box.
i am required to zoom a canvas through Hslider. The problem is after zooming the canvas i cannot scroll to the extreme left and top of the canvas i.e some part of left and top canvas are not visible. i cannot find the reason. The source code for the example is given below.
I am going to use a HSlider to set a range of values. I would like the left thumb to look like ( and the right thumb to lok like ) so they appear to encompass the range like (range) instead of |range|. I only know how to set the skin for SliderThumb which will set the skin for both. Does anyone know of a way to set a different skin for each thumb?
I'd like to create an HSlider so that the skin of the track is different on either side of the thumb. So, for example, the track on the left side of the thumb is green, but red on the other.Is this possible or will it take a custom component?
I am trying to create a simple Music player has play/pause button and an HSlider that shows the position of the song as it is playing using a custom SliderThumbClass. I would like allow the user to drag/drop the sliderthumb or click on the sliderbar to change the position of the song currently playing.
With the code I have below, if I use the sliderThumb to change the position of the currently playing song, it works great. But I if I click directly on the slidertrack to jump ahead/back, the current position doesnt move and there is some flashing of the current position, but it jumps back to where it was and continues playing the song. This does work if I am in the paused state.
As expected, thumbDrag/Press/Release events are not triggered when the user clicks on the sliderTrack - What events should I be subscribing for to handle this case?
I have created a 3 skins with degrafa. One for the track, one for thumb and one for the datatip. I had no problem attaching the skins for the track and thumb of the hslider component. But how can i skin the datatip?
I have a simple application that consists of a HSlider and a list that contains a item renderer with a border container managed by a tile layout. For some reason when moving the slider to reduce the size of the item renderer it only reduce to a certain size and wont reduce any further. I use the same principle in flex 3 (with mx components it works fine).
Does anyone know how can the horizontal control line be removed or made invisible. What am trying to say is, I just want to show the drag-thumb and not the horizontal line.Is there a way to do so, with out using skins?
i have one value in text box(eg:1200) once i drag the HSlider from left to right text box value to increase 1200+150 for each intrevel.if right to left has to decres 150 as same.
I remember using values array on good old mx:HSlider, is there any workaround for s:HSlider?!Basically I need slider to choose values between 300 and 2500 in following steps 300,500,1000,2000,2500.
I have a datagrid in my Flash app whose data keeps updating quite frequently.On every update, I need to change the cell color of only those cells whose data has changed.That too, if the updated value is less than the older value then the cell color should change to RED else, GREEN.I have tried using labelFunction, cellrenderer, etc. But to no avail.By no means, I am able to access the present data in the cells to compare it with the new data.
I don't see any similar tutorial enable you to get the time position when the mouse cursor is on that hslider position, how do I make it possible like Youtube's feature? With this trick, my application would be perfect! Using Flex 4, I hope the code is not too difficult.
I am drawing a cellular automaton simulation on a Flex Canvas. I alternate computing the state of the automaton with updating the graphics on the Panel. However, the updating of the Panel does not seem to be "keeping up" with the update of the CA state.
I'm wondering whether I am doing something wrong with my handling of the graphics code. The code is below. Sorry it's so lengthy, but I don't think the problem will happen with anything simpler (well, it probably will, but I'm not certain I want to take the time to find it).
I have multiple mc (from the same parent), and I have changed the _name property (depending on their depth) thro action script, my question is how do I *refresh* them (without removing and attaching them) so when I refer to them by _name I know I am refering to the "updated" mc after _name change.
problem-1:In php we can easily move one page to another and easily use different type of function from those pages.In flex3 how i can use different type of .mxml pag
In the code below, the presentedAlbumIndex is used to control the selectedIndex of the TileList. Item "five" is initially selected. Whenever the button is pressed the first item in the array is deleted, and the presentedAlbumIndex is decremented.
In theory, the selected index should stay with "five" every time the button is clicked (until "five" is itself deleted). It works this way for the first button press. However, on the 2nd button press the highlighting changes to "six" for some reason. Also, the TileList selectedIndex is always one behind.
I tried looking into ListBase and monitoring selectedIndex. It looks like the selectedIndex is updated initially to the correct index, but then it reverts back at some point to the correct index+1. I do not know why it's setting back.
It seems it's due to the fact that I am doing a data provider delete and index change in the same operation.
Is there some function in TileList I could override to keep selectedIndex up to date?
I have two tables: Person {pID, pName, deptID} and Departments {deptID,deptName}An SQL statement like this gets me the name of a person and the department name:
SELECT pName, departments.deptName FROM people INNER JOIN people.deptID = departments.deptID;
The above works fine. I have a Flex DropDownList that is populated with deptNames. When I click the submit button, I am able to obtain the ID of the selected department without problem:
protected function button_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { person.pName=pNameTextInput.text; person.deptID=pDepartmentDropDownList.selectedItem.deptID; //ID of selected department obtained correctly. if (person.pID == 0)
[code]....
From the comment above, I see that adding person will indeed add the attributes of the person object to the datagrid, except that one attribute is a foreign ID (deptID) from departments.
i am working on an aplication using flex,adobe air...i have a datagrid with a XML as my dataprovider...during the execution of program my XML is updated....after XMl is updated and saved my datagrid should also get update..I have used Dataprovidername.refresh() method but it is not working.
I have a MovieClip which is just a progress bar animation with about 100 frames. Then I load a zip file using a URLStreamLoader and subscribe to the ProgressEvent.PROGRESS event. After loading starts I receive notifications correctly and I set the bar's corresponding frame using gotoAndStop(). Everything seems to work fine except for the animation not being visually updated.
It seems that the scene won't refresh until the zip file is fully loaded.
