Flex :: Get Individual CreationPolicy On Canvas Child Of A TabNavigator?
Oct 19, 2010
Having read about Container creationPolicy (thanks all the references in StackOverflow)I have a TabNavigator and AS code in the initial Tab needs to reference components of second tab (a Canvas with multiple children).But the components of the second tab are null until that Tab is rendered.
According to the documentation as I read it, I should be able to set creationPolicy on the second tab/Canvas to "all"; the TabNavigator will instantiate all its top-level children, even with its multi-view creationPolicy="auto"; and I was hoping that when creating the child Tab/Canvas, that the creationPolicy="all" of that single-view Container would be honored.
But it appears that this is not the case; if the TabNavigator has creationPolicy="all" then the second Tab is populated (but so are the third, fourth, ...); but with "auto" the second Tab is created, but not populated, even though its creationPolicy="all".Is there a way to get just selected Tabs to pre-instantiate?

I'm trying to figure out how to resize a child canvas but I can't quite figure it out. I have a bunch of mini canvas' around a parent canvas like this:
<mx:Canvas width="10" height="10" backgroundColor="#040404" top="0" left="0" id="anchorTL" />
<mx:Canvas width="10" height="10" backgroundColor="#040404" right="0" top="0" id="anchorTR"

I've a custom component where I do some graphics (e.g draw a line) and dynamically add a subcomponent (e.g a label) to it.
If I base the component off Group (which is recommended as per docs since its a spark component) then when I dynamically add a label the graphics part disappears.
However if I base it off Canvas this doesn't happen.
Why is that the case?
Here is the code.
MyComponent.as
public class MyComponent extends Group
{
public var x1:int;

I am creating a tabNavigator object in mxml.
TabNavigator contains navigatorContent objects.
Each NavigatorContent further contains multiple hGroups with three radio buttons in it.
All these elements are populated in the tabNavigator via actionScript code dynamically.
I need to select the second radio button within an hgroup, but am not sure how to do this.
<mx:TabNavigator id="tabNav" height="100" width="500" creationComplete="init();" creationPolicy="all">
</mx:TabNavigator>

I need to add an UIComponent (Label for example) as a child on a canvas and I need to set it on-top (when user click on the label with the mouse, the target event will be the label and not the canvas)I'm sure flash has a solution for that but I can't find it on the net.

I'm trying to skin a canvas with an image (which is essentially a custom border for the canvas). I've been trying the backgroundImage style as well as the borderSkin style. I can't get the image to scale to the full size of the canvas though. I was wondering what the best way to go about this is.[code]...

I got a square component inside a canvas which when clicked shows a glow effect-indicating selection-while clicking somewhere else this effect is removed-indicating deselection.The problem is that the canvas always dispatches the "deselect" event, even if the mouse if over the square.I worked around this by defining a circumstantial function which removes the child's width,height from the parent's "clickable" area.Is there a better way to tell the canvas to dispatch his event only if not over the child ?

I am trying to develeop a Graph Structure with drag and drop features in Flex. I have to connect various components/children on the canvas. Once i drag n drop the components on the canvas, i am using SystemManager event handlers to draw connectors between the components. But, as i click on one component and drag the mouse, the line is drawn on the canvas as long as my mouse stays only on the canvas. If the mouse moves over a component/child(that has been dragged and dropped onto the canvas), the line is drawn to the origin of the canvas from the first clicked component. How shud i recognize the component when i move my mouse over the component? I want the line to be drawn connecting the components once my mouseup event is called.

I am using a Tab Navigator component in which there are three canvas components. When I click one of the canvas (or tab), a Pie Chart is displayed. Actually what happens is that on-click
1. the canvas sends an HTTPService whose url is set to a php file
2. That php file actually gets information from a database. Based on that information an xml file is created
3. Fusion Chart uses that xml file to display a pie chart
The database is being updated after some time. Is there any way the Pie Chart may get updated after every 3 minutes to reflect the modifications in the database? or
Can I send the particular HTTPService again and again after every 3 minutes 'in background'? or
Is there any good way to update the information in a particular canvas (or tab) of Tab Navigator?

In my flex application when I added a tabnavigator control and ran the application, I found that a "#" was appended to the url in the browser and whenever I select one of the tabs the url changes to this "myurl#app=7049&c152-selectedIndex=1" reflecting the index of the selected tab, is this a normal behavior of the tabnavigator,

I am working on tabNavigator in flex 3. I have tileList within it. Contents in the tab comes dynamically so I cannot provide explicitly fixed height and width. I need to resize the tabs depending on the contents within it. To resize the tabs I have enabled 'resizeToContent' property of tabNavigator.For some reason it is not resizing as expected. 'resizeToContent' works fine for other child items in tabNavigator but fails when I use tileList as child in tabNavigator that time tileList resizes to its default size(4 rows are only visible). So i was wondering if there any way so that I can force tileList to display all its items without putting scrollbars after its default size.
just by invalidating size on creationComplete ,will that resize all tabs for me. I am having n-number of tabs in tabNavigator as user can add tabs and content within it. how can I achieve this. I am new to flex so just getting confused with its behaviorand struggling with this issue from long time.

I'm having sizing issues with a TabNavigator. The direct children of the TabNavigator are Canvases, and within these I am adding Images. I'm trying to resize the images to fit within the Canvas without scrollbars. The Canvas height is set to 100% of the parent, which is the TabNav. Then I'm setting the image.height = parent.height *.9. The result is that Flex is generating scrollbars because the images are too high. It appears that the root cause is that the height property of the TabNavigator is the height of the entire component, including the height of the tabs. I'm assuming therefore it also contains that little strip of space between the tabs and the children of the TabNavigator. This makes sense, but is there a property that returns only the height of the children? I'm aware of the scrollbar policy properties and I've experimented with those. I know I can also try a different multiplier for the image size to get it to fit. It just seems like there should be a property to get the size of the space for the children.

I have a TabNavigator component that keeps added a hash (#) to the URL. I need to prevent this. I have it set to historyManagementEnabled="false" but it is still adding the # to the URL when it initializes. The reason why adding this hash is such a problem is because, I am using .htaccess to give my URL a pretty URL like domain.com/designer/category/product/id when the page is really located at domain.com/product.php?pid=id So in order for my assets to load correctly I had to add a base tag like this:
<base href="[URL]" />
But since I have this base tag set, whenever my flex app adds the # to the URL, the page is now automatically redirected to the homepage. Any way to stop the TabNavigator from adding the # to the URL.

I created a TabNavigator with a bunch of NavigatorContent inside it, and want to skin just the buttons of the tabs themselves. So I added a skinClass, but looks like in the documentation, there's no skin part to target the button specifically.
Do I have to style the mx:TabNavigator itself to accomplish this? I was hoping not since I don't know how to style mx components and am more comfortable with styling spark.

Is it possible to place the Tabs on the bottom of a TabNavigator?
Currently, I want to see if Flex4 can cretae tabs for me positioned on the bottom.
Currently I can use [URL] for his positionedTabNavigator and yet it looks wonky, when I apply rounded corners on the tab, it rounds the wrong end.

I've got a problem while migrating my TabNavigator from Flex 3 to Flex 4.5. Stripped to the bare minimum, the following code will produce the bug, namely that the second child of the TabNavigator fails to be created properly:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application
xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

Is this really a Flex bug, or is there something I'm missing? I'm using Flex 4.5.0.20967, and all of this worked well in Flex 3.5.

Apologies for the rookie Q - trying to learn Flex/Actionscript and just having some basic layout issues. (Using FlashBuilder 4, with Flex 4.5 HERO SDK) I have a TitleWindow, and have embedded a mx:TabNavigator within it. I have then placed a list within the first tab and set its width/height to 100% However, there appears to be a gap between the top of the list, and the bottom of the tab menus. Why is this happening and what is the best way to ensure the top of the list aligns up flush with the top of the VBox?
