How to skin a PopUpMenuButton

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 09:44:54 GMT

I have lots of nice spark buttons that are all skinned (with the skins referenced via CSS) but cannot find how to skin a PopUpMenuButton so that its style is consistent with the rest of my UI.

Please help! Thanks

Where to start with building a horizontally scrolling menu bar

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:26:40 GMT

I have a number of web and AIR based Flex apps under my belt now but have come across a custom component I need to make and not sure where to start.

I would like to generate a horizontal scrolling menu like this...

... where you hold your mouse down on either arrow, the menu will scroll accordingly.

I have a number of different starting points but not sure what is best... do I edit skins... do I work with lists... scrollers...?

I was thinking I could take a spark list in horzontal layout and edit its scrollers Hscrollbar skin so that the thumb and track were invisible and the increment & decrement buttons appear outside the group - that way I could skin everything up nicely and at the end of the day have a simple list... but no luck with the skins so far.

Any ideas???

Enabling button mode on Accordion item

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 12 Aug 2011 16:34:31 GMT

I have an Accordion with an AccordionHeader skin, and at runtime I add a navigatorContent component a number of times to dynamically create my accordion.

What I need to do is have the cursor change to a hand when rolling over each accordion header (so the user knows they are interactive and clickable!)

I've tried buttonMode and useHandCursor on everything and in every combination but I cannot get it to work. The best I have is to use buttonMode on the accordion, but then the cursor is still a hand when hovering over the navagatorContent (even when its buttonMode = false)

I've also tried using buttonMode in the AccordionHeader skin (as I thought this should be the place for it), but still no luck.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Scaling FXG paths in Flex

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 07:07:51 GMT

I have a tileList with a "tile" itemRenderer - the itemRenderer contains a group of two FXG paths created in Illustrator which result in a graphic representation of a person (think the male symbol on a bathroom door). One path is the head, another path is the body.

My question here is, given that the path is vector, how on earth do I scale the group of paths (and the paths themselves) up/down should the user resize their workspace? - and they'd need to be in pro too, so not stretched.

As the moment, the FXG paths appear to follow absolute positioning so not sure how it would work!?

Thanks in advance

Skin issue until TitleWindow is moved

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 14:07:06 GMT

I have a TitleWindow that contains a number of components, each with their own skins.

My problem is that first the window first launches, the skins don't look great - as though parts are offset.

However, when I move the title window the skins redraw and look great.

I know there is an invalidateNow method but I haven't been able to get it working and not sure if thats the issue anyway?!

See the before & afer below. The image on the right is how it should be, but the image on the left is what is first drawn (until I move the window)

Spark DropDownList label colour on "over" event, but no "over" event exists?!?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 10:32:11 GMT

I'm making a set of custom skins for a spark dropdown list, but I can't see where I change the color.over for the labelDisplay?!?

What I have is a black DropDownList with a black background and cyan text - this is the normal state. When the users hovers over the DropDownList while it is still closed, I want it to invert so the background to go cyan and the text to go black. I can get the background to change in the DropDownList's DropDownListButtonSkin, but I can't find where I change the text.

Normally I would expect this to be in the DropDownListButtonSkin component where there is an "over" state, and I just change the colour of the labelDisplay component there.

However, the DropDownListButtonSkin doesnt contain a labelDisplay component as this is in the parent - the main DropDownListSkin.... but this skin doesnt have an "over" state, so how do I control the colour of the label when the user moves their mouse over it?!?

Many thanks in advance for your help!

I've also posted on multiple sites but still no further....

This is the code as it should be, but I just get the following errors

Referencing custom child components and their properties from the parent

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 17:32:15 GMT

I'm trying to replicate the iphone style search box where the field says "Search" but when you click the text input the "Search" text disappears and a cancel button appears to the right of the input box.

To achieve this, I have a custom border container which has a custom text input component and a custom button component inside it. The text input has the border disabled and focusAlpha set to 0, so all looks good.

I have the custom text input dispatch two custom events (SearchEnter and SearchExit) which is being captured up throughout my application and works great for everything else. However, I need the custom cancel button (a sibling of the text input) to capture the events too, but it doesnt seem to work.

My next approach was to have the custom border container capture the event (which it does), but I dont know how to reference the visible property of the custom cancel button (the child of the custom border container).

The cancel button component is called "SearchCancel" and its id is "searchCancel".... I was hoping that in the border contained base class I could reference it with this.searchCancel.visible = true;

I'm not looking for a new approach to my problem, more the way to access the properties of a child component from the base class of a custom container.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Accessing containers in sibling MXML components

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 11 Oct 2010 13:09:48 GMT

New to Flex, but trying to separate my app into managable MXML components, but I'm struggling with accessing

components in different MXML files.

Simplified view below...

project

(default package)
- Main.mxml
components
- AppAccordion
- Component 1
- Component 2
- Component 3

Main.mxml has the custom component called "AppAccordion" in it with the id="myAccordion".

AppAccordion has 3x canvases which implement each of the custom Components 1, 2 or 3 mxml files. So each "Component N" mxml file appears as a different item of the accordion.

My problem is that I want a button in "Component 1" to change the selectedIndex of "myAccordion", but I have no idea how to do this. I can trace (parent.parent.parent) and this gives me the name of the accordion, but when I try (parent.parent.parent.selectedIndex) it says its an undefined property?!?!

Any help would be much appreciated

Thank you!

Issues with AMD Opteron @1MB L2 cache for CS4

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 13:15:59 GMT

On starting at a non-creative organisation 18 months ago I inherited a 2.5GB, 2.2GHz Dual-Core AMD 1214 Opteron (which I believe has 1MB L2 cache) and an ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT card

In the past I have used dual-core 2.8GHz Xeons with NVidea cards which have been lightning fast compared to this machine.

My main use is for CS4, and the current system is really slowing me down. After a little research, I understand the Opteron to have a server architecture rather than a Workstation architecture and only 1MB of L2 cache. I appreciate there are many factors to consider, but are these two elements really slowing me down?!?

Thanks in advance

Referencing checkboxes using strings of their IDs

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 07 May 2010 13:21:09 GMT

I'm sure this is a really easy one (im a beginner)...

I'm creating checkboxes at runtime and assigning IDs in the format "checkBox_1", "checkBox_2" etc.

I'm also pushing these strings to an array, so I have a list of all the checkboxes I have made (across multiple NavigationContent containers)

I need to loop through the array and convert the string into a valid checkbox reference and grab the label of that checkbox.

What I'm struggling with is that the following throws an error

var myCheckBox:CheckBox;

myCheckBox = CheckBox("checkBox_1");

trace(myCheckBox.label);

and myCheckBox = "checkBox_1" as CheckBox; doesnt work

I'm missing something really basic here

How do I convert a string, and use a string as a property?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 05 May 2010 12:32:00 GMT

I have an array in the following format:

{ownsCar: 'true', ownsBike: 'true', ownsHouse: 'true'}

{ownsCar: 'false', ownsBike: 'true', ownsHouse: 'true'}

{ownsCar: 'true', ownsBike: 'false', ownsHouse: 'true'}

etc ............

And I need to test against each item e.g.

if...

myDataGrid[myItem].ownsCar == Object(myCheckbox).label

... then

if...

myDataGrid[myItem].ownsBike == Object(myCheckbox).label

... then

if...

myDataGrid[myItem].ownsHouse == Object(myCheckbox).label

... then

But I need to build my application where the property (e.g. "ownsCar", "ownsBike", "ownsHouse") is a variable such as:

if...

myDataGrid[myItem].myProperty == Object(myCheckbox).label

... then

I would like to loop through my Array, counting the number of items, and then use each item as a property.

How would I convert the string (e.g. "ownsCar") into a property "myProperty" ???

Many thanks in advance

Chris
