I have a web app that prints reports, most are just one page, or two, so I just create a component that shows the data and print it.
But I have this one report that can have thousands of lines, with a custom format, Flash will slow down with this.
Is it posible to print it without showing the actual data on screen? or is there a component to print reports with custom format?

View 1 RepliesLooking for some ideas, strategies, tools, etc. on creating reports from Flash Builder / Flex 4. I have a flex application that allows create/read/update/delete of client information from a back-end database. It uses web services (zend amf -> mongo db or mysql). I already have the client data IN flex via the web service as a collection for example. A user requests the ability to generate a report - to display a list of clients under a certain age in a tabular excel style grid (datagrid most likely).
It will be sorted and subtotaled by a demographic such as "insurance type". Ideally the user would like to be able to select the insurance types allowed on the report (or in the datagrid/pivot table). I know one option would be to present the user with a series of check boxes or a multi-select list to choose the insurance types. Then, present them with a data grid or advanced data grid component to display the 'report'. What other techniques, options or components are available / have people used?
Has anyone used BIRT (eclipse.org/birt) with flex or flash builder 4 to display reports to a user? I believe it has the ability to display reports as a web page via php or similar, so I am guessing one way to implement it would be to display the BIRT generated pages in flex inside a web control.how you used BIRT in conjunction with your flash app?
View 1 RepliesI have a Flex 4.6 web game which displays 2 Lists with virtual layouts with 2 custom item renderers. The renderers consist mainly of BitmapImages displaying user avatars + few Labels.
The Lists are being updated often over TCP socket with gzipped JSON data. I merge that data into 2 ArrayCollections serving as dataProviders for the Lists. This seems to work well, the Lists do not flicker and are updated correctly (I've monitored debug traces a lot to get it right).

I'm trying to show image files (jpg, png, gif) that can be larger than the available display area. I've embedded an Image inside a cCanvas (to get scrolling), but the large images are not completely displayed.
Very large images (e.g. 2480 x 3507) have the top or the top and bottom of the image clipped withing the scrolling Image.
What is the largest graphic one can display using the mx.controls.Image ?
I've an AIR app which prints a couple of DataGrids with approximately 3 pages worth of data each. I get great-looking printouts, but the printing is slow - I noticed that printing these 6 pages + a title page and a page of lightweight images was sent to the printer in a file of almost 50 MB (on Windows). Is this a normal size for a printed DataGrid? Is there anything I can do to make it smaller and faster?
View 1 RepliesI have the code to copy parts of a huge loaded BitmapData to a target BitmapData that is just the size that I can display. I think I have set the scroll bars of an enclosing Canvas to show the size of the larger image and allow the user to scroll. Now I need to put the selected pixels on the screen. When I try to add a Bitmap component as a child of the Canvas, it get an error because Bitmap is not a UIComponent. What's the best way to put the target BitmapData into an Image component?

View 1 RepliesFlex 4.5+ is I guess everyone is working on nowadays so I asked this question since I haven't yet find working both spark datagrid and the mx printdatagrid components together.
What I'm trying to achieve is to print all the data inside my spark datagrid. So when I do my research, we use the PrintJob or the FlexPrintJob classes.It works fine but when I need to print multiple pages since the data on my spark datagrid is quite long, I can't somehow find a way how to do it.The print output is only upto where the height of my spark datagrid.So in my research, they somehow managed it to use the mx:PrintDataGrid component.But sad to say, they did it with an mx:DataGrid also.how to use the mx:PrintDataGrid along with s:DataGrid.
var printJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
if (printJob.start())

If converting a spark datagrid columns to the mx datagrid columns is not possible, is there a way that I can print all the data on the spark datagrid using multiple pages?

I've set up an application to print the current state of the control I'm using (in this case an ArcGIS server map), but I'd like to set up a print function that uses it's own template to print rather than grabbing the state of the application.
I've attempted to do this by setting up a flex component that lays out the items I want to print and instantiating it when I call the FlexPrintJob. Unfortunately, simply instantiating it results in getting a blank green square.
There are two main questions about this that I'd like to put out there. First, what needs to be done to print a newly instantiated template rather than just grabbing already existing controls from the screen? Second, for more controls that need to load complicated data from multiple sources, like an ArcGIS map, is it possible to instantiate them in that kind of environment, or is there a way to take an image of the control in the application and print that?
Is there the way to print pdf document from flex?

View 1 RepliesI am trying to load a swf(as3) into another As3 Swf with the Movieclip loader. After loading however Loader.width/loader.content.width returns an exaggerated value than the actual width of the swf being loaded. Any pointers on where to begin looking for the discrepancy?
More Details (if it helps)
The swf being loaded has UI components like dropdowns, input boxes and combo boxes (its a Form to fill up), and a coded one-time tween. When the child MC loads into the parent movieclip, the Loader.width value returned is exaggerated by about 28 pixels (although the height remains the same). Loader.content.width also returns a 28 pixel exaggerated value. The Exaggerated value is more than even the stage width of the child MC. The extra ~30 px are upsetting subsequent code in the parent movie to scale and center the loaded swf.
update:
stage.stageWidth returns the correct Value.Code used in the parent MC, to load external SWF:
private var deadURL = "child.swf";
private var deadReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(deadURL);
private var deadLoader:Loader = new Loader();[code].....

View 8 RepliesI'm using AlivePDF to create a PDF file, then save it to the desktop. I can then use an HTMLLoader to display my lovely PDF file.
Now, the print button in Adobe Reader works fine. However, there will be young children using the app, so I'd like to have a big "Print" button right above it. I figured I could just start up a print job and feed it my HTMLLoader. This won't work because the HTML loader rasterizes the content.
