I realize this is probably a simple question but my google-fu is failing me. I would like to get a windows explorer like file browser to popup when I click a button to select images to upload to my AIR application.However I cannot find a component that handles File exploring. Does anyone know what to use?

View 2 RepliesDoes anyone know if there is a way to make the new Package Explorer window in Flash Builder emulate Flex Builders 'Flex navigator' window?
Bottom line is I don't always need to peer into SWC's, and I don't like having a 'default package' automatically created for me. Not sure why the interface wasn't made simpler, allowing access to more power and complexity only if necessary. I want to focus on the code, not on how to navigate and use the bells and whistles in the coding environment.
I have a flex application mxml file with 3 tabs.the first tab having the link button to select the value in the 3rd tab. Suppose, i have a link button in first atab. And the 3rd tab contains the combobox with values:"basic", "advanced". by default the vaule is displaying "default". When i select the linkbutton on the first tab, the "advanced"should be displayed in the comboBox on the 3rd tab. and the problem is , when click on the first tab link button , at that time the 3rd tab is not initialized. So it is not displaying the "advanced" in the comboBox. selecting the 2nd time on the link button it is displaying fine. But not first time. code: thirdTab.comboBoxId.selectedItem.data = 1;

View 2 RepliesI have a requirement to print a bill from the AIR application.
Following are the constraints.
I need to print to a DotMatrix Printer. I have a complex layout with header, footer and a datagrid with data rolling out to more that one page. I need to have a template to which I will be passing my object.The suffice with the usage of Jasper reports, but I have no server side support.I tried the FlexReport, bentbit and other tools which is optimized for the DotMatrix printers.
Is there a alternative to get the above requirements done. Is there any alternative similar to that of jasper reports without going for a server.

View 1 RepliesIt seems that AIR doesn't come packaged with the powerful FTS module for Sqlite (its a hot requested feature)
What are the some other alternatives I can use? I want to be able to do simple boolean and phrase queries. Support for stemming would be great but not required. I am targeting the mobile platforms.
So far I've thought of three options:
Write a simple inverted index and a scorer Do search on server side (last resort b/c it messes up offline capability) Somehow install FTS module with AIR. First indication from googling is that its not feasible (looks like loading of modules is disabled in air)
I have a really bizarre problem with my adobe air app. I have a method which launches a local HTML file and passes some querystring items to it.
Here is the code:
function printWin(def) {
def = encodeURI(def);
var req = new window.runtime.flash.net.URLRequest('print.html');

I'm going to write an application with the Air/Flex-Framework. I'm looking for Best Practise and general Design Patterns for designing software especially in Air/Flex. I have experience with this framework but never had the pleasure to write a piece of software from scratch.
For instance: I stumbled across lots of software written in Air/Flex with nearly infinity global vars Most of the software I saw was not object-oriented How can I pack the asynchronous method calls nicely?
I'm familiar with general design patterns by gamma. I'm looking more for advise in designing good quality software with Adobe Air/Flex.
Most of the desktop application development I do is in Swing, and I'm curious to hear people's thoughts on using JavaFX and/or Adobe Flex for building desktop applications. Have you had success building desktop apps with these? Or would you stick with Swing for now and use tools to help make Swing development more productive?

I'd like my users to be able to easily navigate their files, which live on my server. Is there an obvious / built in way to build the front end for this in Flex?

View 4 Repliesi have a flex file upload application over https it works fine on all IE browsers. Recently a client with IE9 reported a complaint that she's not able to upload files. can see the error generated is IO Error #2038. The adobe documentation says 2038 is File I/O Error.This error occurs when an application can't get file size, creation date or modification data using the FileReference API.
All i can think of is browser issues like, browser cache, some new configuration in IE9 am unaware of or permission on the client directory.

View 1 RepliesI am just starting to use flash.
I designed a flash site with Flash CS4 and Actionscript 3.0.
I am using this simple preloader, basically I learned from a tutorial:
stop();
//PreloaderloaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, updatePreloader);
function updatePreloader(evtObj:ProgressEvent):void{//container for the progress of the site (download)var percent:Number = Math.floor((evtObj.bytesLoaded*100)/evtObj.bytesTotal);preloader_txt.text = percent+"%";if (percent==100){ nextFrame(); }}
make it refresh properly in explorer 8, as it works well once, but if you refresh, it stops working, and stays on 0%.
I have a preloader with the following code
stop();
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PRO GRESS, onProgress);
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
function onProgress(erogressEvent):void {
var loaded:Number = e.target.bytesLoaded;
[Code] .....
It works great with Firefox and Safari on a mac but when viewing in internet explorer on a pc, the loader does not work at all.
