Flex :: Displaying The Background In VBox While Using WindowShader
Nov 20, 2009
I am using a WindowShader in my website. every thing is working fine. but for somereason i am unable to display any background for my "home_feeds" VBox. If i add components on it, i can see them. But they backgound is not working. Even if i remove every thing from the Canvas(with home_feeds) i still dont see any background. But if i remove the comments from my mx:List.. i can see the background.
Where the height and width of vBox was 250 x 350 and the height and width of background image was 400 x 400.The problem is that the background image doesn't show the full image. The image has cropped. How can i show the full image as a background image?
I'm trying to programmatically(yep, must be this way) style/skin a VBox so that its top right corner is rounded, and it gets a two colors gradient brackground.
Modifying examples I found around I was able to accomplish both effects(corner and background) but only separately:
VBox with not all rounded corners: [URL]
VBox with gradient background: [URL]
But what I need to do is to apply both at the same time. And all my coding attempts so far have failed silently.
I have a VBox with fixed width and height, and I add image objects with fixed width and height. I find that if my objects' height exceed the VBox's height, it doesn't show the object. I tried validateNow(), but it doesn't work. The object is added, but VBox just doesn't display it, so it leaves a blank with a same height as my other object.
I have the following application and I am trying to put a scrollbar somewhere inside the TabNavigator, preferably on the innermost Vbox, but the scrollbar always ends up on the Panel. Is there some kind of property which controls this? I thought height=100% would have controlled it but it doesn't seem to work.[code]
I am having troubles adding a radiobutton to a VBox in actionscript.
var radioButton:RadioButton = new RadioButton(); radioButton.groupName = "source"; radioButton.label = "label";
[Code].....
I first created these radiobuttons in mxml and it worked fine, but now that the radiobuttons need to be dynamically generated in actionscript it doesnt work.
When stepping through in the debugger I get to a binding error (1009) when trying to execute the addchild statement and nothing shows up in the VBox.
How do I add a border to a Flex VBox? My VBox is the renderer of a List. I've tried the following without success (in particular VBox's borderVisible="true" borderStyle="solid" borderColor="0x888888"):
I only really need the HBox answer but figure that if we get a good answer in here I'm trying to do a similar thing with a VBox. It would be nice to know this in both actionscript and MXML. So I have an HBox that I want some text aligned from the left and some radios from the right. Like so:
I am in need of a strange solution. I have one requirement in which I am displaying two components in a VBox. But on click of the main container I need to maximize that and need to display the components in horizontal. I was just wondering whether I can change the VBox to HBox and viceversa dynamically using actionscript or some other way.
In flex, I am using VBox & HBox to stack components. When I try to get x,y coordinate of a component, I always get 0. If I specify cooridnate like mx:VBox x="120", then I get the value.
How can I get the coordinate without explicitly stating it.
I'm having a problem when adding a child to a VBox component. Is it not the same thing?:
List Item:
<mx:Script> <![CDATA[ public function addChildren():void {
[Code]....
I am injecting two properties (question and answer) to the FaqItem component from an auxiliar file (using BabelFX) that depends on the id of the FaqItem, but it is only working when I choose the second option. If I use the first option, I get a child but with the text in question and answer fields is empty. I need to use the first option.
I have a VBox. I fill it with some children. Each children having a different height. I didn't specify any height to my VBox. So that it will resize to it's content. Ok. But how can I now read the height of my VBox? I mean how can I find out how much space it takes? I tried to use myVBox.getRect(this).height but it always returns 100 ...
I have VBox that contains two Hbox. The first hbox is not included in the layout while second is. After a event occurs, first hbox is visible & included in the layout. But the problem is the second hbox does not move down & first & second are overlapping. I tried using the co ordinates x,y, move it does not work.[code]Why are both of them overlapping & how can i get second box after first one.
I'm trying to style vscrollbar and hscrollbar inside a Vbox.But there's always a white square thing at the right bottom cornor which can not be styled.
I have a VBox containing a bunch of panels. I have implemented dragging and dropping but I need to be able to scroll automatically when the item is drug near the edge. I am having mixed results. I can get it to work, but not well. My example is below. It works if the user bounces their mouse around a little near the top or bottom edge, but I want it to work if they just hold the mouse there.[code]So if they are within 50px of an edge then it should scroll by 50px. I've exaggerated the numbers just to get an affect.
I have the following site which I need to have a background displayed in (this blends with the background of the flash movie): [url]....
However, when I add the CSS background image property to the HTML file, nothing happens. The site still displays with a white background. There is no error in the code so I am very confused as to what's going on with this. Here is my HTML code. [code]...
I'm trying to add some animation into my flex application, so I've made an animated .swf that I want to embed into the application. The problem I'm having is if I use a SWFLoader, it comes up with a solid background colour, the same as the container window, I can't seem to get rid of this,
I have searched the internet thoroughly for a resolution and spent an entire day at work unable to sort this problem out. I am using Flex 3.2 sdk and Adobe Air 1.5.0
Embedding as a symbol is also a possiblity I've tried, and would prefer to do it that way if possible as it will make it easier to add code to stop/start the animation at different positions.
The component I am adding the animation to is a TitleWindow, not sure if thats relevant but maybe it makes a difference!
As the title already states i have a (big) problem importing a PNG in a Flex 4 application.Created a PNG file in Photoshop with transparent background. Loaded in Flex application using this code:[code]So when the complete event fires the data has been loaded and it is possible to assign the data loaded to the image component named Thumbnail:[code]Unitls now everything works as expected!But when i try to send the Thumbnail component's data to a WCF service i receive a photo with white background:[code]
I am currently playing with the events. I am trying to create a mouse down listener for a VBox. The issue I am facing is, the listener gets invoked only when I click exactly on the border. I need to cover the whole GroupBox for the mouse down.[code]
I am trying to place an image besides the label in y-axis. So I have created a custom label renderer(A HBox containing and ). The source for the image has to be set based on a property present in the data provider. The problem is, I am not able to access the BarSeriesItem in the fnSetSource() method.
I have a VBox who dynamically adds and removes children programatically. The height is set to 100% and verticalScrollPolicy=auto.When a user wants to add another child to that Vbox, I want it to autoscroll to the bottom of the VBox since that is where the child is added.
I've tried every solution I could find online, but no matter what, the verticalScrollPosition and maxVerticalScrollPosition are both ALWAYS equal to 0. Even if I manually scroll to the bottom of the VBox and press a button that alerts these numbers.(Even after 'validateNow()' as well).
The only time I can get these numbers to change programmaticaly is when the VBox height is set in pixels, which I don't want since the children all have varying heights.Plllease tell me that it's possible to set verticalScrollPosition without hard coding the height in pixels? Am I missing something totally obvious here?
Inside a VBox I have VideoDisplay that call by dynamically. Vbox is inside a viewstack and I have a linkbar also. My need is when I click first one the first video will show and all the others deactive like that.
My code is shown below <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="[URL]" layout="absolute" backgroundGradientAlphas="[1.0, 1.0]" backgroundGradientColors="[#837575, #E5E6BA]" creationComplete="showXML ()"> [Code] .....
