I am having difficulty navigating to different MXML pages in my Flex application. I checked some other questions on SO about it but they seemed to be to do with tab navigation. I am trying to navigate from one MXML page to another via Actionscript code.
Does MXML get compiled down to as3 and then converted to flash bytecode? Also, is there a significant performance penalty to compiling mxml vs compiling as3?
I am working on a custom Flex 4 component which is an aggregation of two existing flex components. I would like to be able to specify my own custom properties for the component as well as access the existing public subcomponent properties via MXML. For instance I might want to adjust the font color or style for the label and text input. toy component which aggregates both a label and a text input:
I am trying to override a Button class, i have a few properties which i wish directly initialise with the mxml description of the component, like :[code]which function is triggered ( in order to override it ) when all properties with mxml description is fully initialised with their values ?
What I'd like to do: create an MXML component with some children, then extend it via MXML to create a new component with more children, without losing the original set.In other words
create a component bc.mxml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <s:BorderContainer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
I've been trying to create a custom mxml component that extends another custom mxml component (i.e.MyMXMLComponent -> BaseMXMLComponent -> Group). I've been reading that trying to add visual children to MyMXMLComponent caused error with Flex 3 but that's no longer the case with Flex 4.
What I want to know is whether this is a supported/fixed/documented feature of Flex 4? or just some undefined behavior in Flex 4 that may get changed with future updates?
if this is supported and documented feature, does anyone have link pointing to adobe document stating it as such?
This is a project I'm working on for a simple demo tutorial application in Flex. I am using mxml pages. You can see to the left that I will have my main application and then other mxml files (In the Examples Package) as the examples that will be loaded into the main application mxml. How can I dynamically pull the value from the object in the list to load the child mxml file into the container that I have further down in the application?
A Flex components values are initlized by init methord. In an application flow, How to refresh a mxml component data value ; as init is callled at the start up it self only.
eg. of mxml componet may be as simple as button label or text as complex as repeater whose data provider is a web service ( means a fresh quesy should be made to pull the data and refresh the dataprovider of repeater )
I'm trying to do this using only mxml, no <script> tags, although I don't necessarily need a solution that's only mxml. It was more of an educational exercise to see if I could do it all in mxml. I have a custom component that has a slider and textinput and their value/text properties are bound together. I'm surfacing a few properties of the slider in my component so that it can sort of be treated like a slider.
I would like to include an MXML file in my MXML file in the same way you can include an external file in AS3 using the include directive. Using the include directive brings the code from the external file into the original file at compile time placing it in the same scope. For example,
I have 3 mxml components. In Component 1, I let the users fill in some data. In Component 3 I want to use the data, but I can't find a way to make it work.
I'm trying to compile gui/flex/songs.mxml in the fourth edition of Bruce Eckel's Thinking in Java book and am getting a compilation error with Flex 3.4.
Here is a simplified version of the example that gives the same error:
I've been having trouble exporting Adobe Flex using Adobe Air. I can't find the runnable application Air, and so when I export something to be opened in air it can't be opened. I'm on a Mac Powerbook G4 running OS 10.5.8.
I have one mxml file that process xml, and display the graphics on panel.I need to display first mxml in another mxml file, in some area(HBox, VBox, Panel, dont care). How i can do this?
Is it possible to create an instance of the main MXML and use it inside the ActionScript class.public var obj:classname= new classname();When i try to call a components id through obj.textfieldID... it does not..
I have two mxml files. one is main that is application tag mxml file and another is my mxml component file. I have a viewstack in my main mxml whose id is, say, "mainViewStack". Now I want to set selectedChild property of "mainViewStack" from my mxml component file. [code]...
Flex newbie question: can MXML be generated on the fly, like HTML is generated by a server? If yes, is it ok to do so or am I missing an important Flex architectural principle.
I have a Flex project and am using a trial version of Adobe Flex Builder 3 to build it.
I do the following:
1. Change an mxml file in the project (for simplicity, assume I changed the text in a label).
2. Right click on the project, Export, Release Build
3. Right click on the main mxml file, Run As -> Flex Application
A browser window opens, everything runs fine, but I cannot see the change I made in step 1.
I thought the browser (tried with IE, Chrome) might be caching stuff, so I tried after deleting all temporary internet files, but I see the same behavior.
Is it possible to make some kind of 'dynamic' thumbnails for mxml components which I'm using in my application? By 'dynamic' I mean if I change some layout in mxml component, my thumbnail refreshes according to new layout without any screen capturing,photoshoping or similar
Is it possible to retrieve flashvar parameter in mxml code and if so how? Up to now i have been using Application.application.parameter.name to get what i need.
Can anyone give me some details on the proper use of the tag <mx:SetEventHandler /> used when switching states? The Flex documentation is not very elaborate on this subject. Especially removing event handlers has my interest.
This question is a more specific formulation of my preceding post:[URL}..
