Flex :: Keep A Nativewindow On Top?
Jul 6, 2009
I need to keep a NativeWindow I am creating on top of the main window of the application. Currently I am using alwaysInFront = true, which is not limited to the windows in the application. I can successfully synchronize the minimize/restore/move/resize actions, so the top window behaves appropriately in those cases. Even though using this option has the drawback that if I alt-tab to other application the window goes on top of the other application.
Because of the above I am trying to get it to work without using the alwaysInFront. I have tried using orderInFrontOf and orderToFront, which gets it in place but when I click an area in the main window the top one becomes hidden i.e. air makes it the top one. I have tried capturing activate/deactivate events but it only happens on the first click, so on the second click the top window becomes hidden again. I also tried making the top window active when the main one becomes active, but that causes the main one to loose focus and I can't click on anything. I am doing this to improve the behavior of a HTMLOverlay I am using - see [URL]

The customer I am working for wants to display popup in an AIR application (designed in Flex 4).I will therefore use TitleWindow and PopupManager for this (or NativeWindow could be an option too).
Pretty basic, I can handle this.
Trouble is, this customer would like this popup to be looking as a Fancybox, that is, with the close button, slightly out of the popup.

I have an AIR application with a system tray icon. When clicked it shows and activates the app. This is working as expected when the app is hidden (docked), however if I select another application so my app is in the background clicking on the system tray icon does nothing.
Oddly I also have a contextual menu on the system tray icon, which has an option to restore, this calls the same event handler as ScreenMouseEvent.CLICK, yet works.
I expect it's something to do with the contextual menu changing the focus, perhaps it's a bug in how AIR works with the system tray, perhaps it's just something I'm missing. Would be good to know if that's the case.

In my AIR application, when a user creates a new project I want a pop-up box to appear where they can enter their project's name in. I understand how this is doable by making my own type of pop-up box, but is there a way to do this using NativeWindows? That is, can I make a window using the system chrome appear which contains a text field and a butto

I have read all there is to read about windows/ native windows in air.
In addition to the main auto-added window, I am creating and (trying to) open two windows when the app starts. It works fine when I test it in flash CS4, but when i publish/install and run it, the windows added through code do not appear.[code]...

I'm having trouble with the positioning of objects within the NativeWindow. So my code below creates a NativeWindow, and then draws a rectangle and adds it to the stage of the NativeWindow. I can't seem to have the rectangle centered in the window. I've tryed playing with the stage scale mode, and align properties. By default the align should be center, but it doesn't appear to be the case. The rectangle seems to be drawn from somewhere between the center and top left of the window. I've also drawn a rectangle onto the main app window using identical code.
Code:
import flash.display.NativeWindowInitOptions;
import flash.display.NativeWindow;
var NWIO = new NativeWindowInitOptions();
[code]....
Left window is the main app, and the right window is the NativeWindow.

I'm trying to make a popup window class which will get a content DisaplyObject, and popup and display it in itself, but I'm cracking my head with matching the size of the content to the window or vise versa... I think that maybe the window is not display all of the stage or something ?[code]...

I have a rectangle with an event listener like so:
rect.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startMove);
private function startMove(event:MouseEvent):void
{
this.nativeWindow.startMove();
}
this works fine.
I also have a button inside this rectangle, and when I click the button the window drags just like if I had clicked on the rectangle.
How can I stop this from happening? I tried removing the event but that didn't work, I don't even know which event to remove, the mouseDown or NativeDrag event... There is no stopDrag() function in nativeWindow.

I'm getting crazy because I can't access object NativeWindow in a "ActionScript Mobile Project", no matter what I do stage.nativeWindow is always null when I test on desktop. If I create a new NativeWindow then it's the stage property that is null. Oddly enough accessing stage.NativeWindow works when deploying on blackberry playbook but not when debugging configuration Launch Method on desktop.
Can't answer my own question but it seems the feature is just unsupported on the desktop I guess the workaround is use Stage.Resize when debugging desktop. reference: The window represents the native operating system window; the Stage represents the content contained by the window. This property is only valid for content running in AIR on platforms that support the NativeWindow class. On other platforms, this property will be null. In Flash Player (content running in a browser), this property will also be null.

How do you find out the size of the system chrome so that I can specify the window size to achieve the stage size I want?
If my main window is set at 800 x 600 (stage), and I create a second window as below, it will be smaller.
public function Main():void
{
var windowOptions:NativeWindowInitOptions = new NativeWindowInitOptions();
windowOptions.systemChrome = NativeWindowSystemChrome.STANDARD;
[Code].....
I assume you increase both newWindow.width = 800; and newWindow.height = 600;to account for the chrome, but how do you find this value?

I have implemented application client-server with spring blazeDs message services using JMS message destination. The idea is a producer declared in Java send message using activeMQ and consumer declared in Flex receives them. I have configured the AMFChannel with a polling interval 0, but I have seen when the consumer subscribes to the destination in Flex, the time request can be of up to 3 seconds.

I am trying to access html files protected by basic authentication. Below is the code to do that but I still get the authentication dialog. I checked the fiddler and found that for the first request authorization header is present but for the subsequent requests which is requested to load the .js, css & images the authorization header is not added. This is the reason I am getting the auth dialog.
Is there a way to add authorization header to the subsequent requests as well?

I have a TabNavigator, and each tab is a Module. One of the modules is labelled Units and the full code of the module is posted in this post. There are several problems:
1) Forms are not populated with data from the datagrid selection.
2) Selecting a row and clicking delete gives the very-common error: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
A trace on the valueObject unit within the selectionChangeHandler function gives NULL. Why? Note: In other modules (other tabs of the TabNavigator), I have DropDownLists populated with units. This means that the valueObject Unit is defined in the other modules. However, valueObjects should be private to modules, and not shared.

I am working on a grid example in flex using advanced grid control. I know we can easily group data by specifying the field name. At the group node level, other than the gorup name I want to be able to show data in the rest of the cells ( calculated data ) and I am looking for some dataRowBound event or similar to be able to hook some data in it.
Example: Grid displaying list of towns grouped by state. At the group level ( for each state) I want to show the total number of towns in each state. Here how can i show the total number in the town column.

I've embedded a MovieClip symbol with the [Embed] syntax into my AS3 project, which I'm compiling with the Flex 3 SDK. That MovieClip has instances of other clips within it that are placed on stage with instance names. I can't just access them by instance name like I would if I were compiling with the Flash IDE. How can I reference them?
