• TextArea auto resizing does not work from flex 4.6

  Hello

  before flex 4.6 on air mobile for android, if the height is not specified in a s:TextArea, auto sizing textArea, since flex 4.6 does not work.

  Thank you.

  Try switching it back on the TextAreaSkin instead of the StageTextAreaSkin.   StageText allows you to get a native text input, but there are limits to the way he plays with the rest of the display list.

• Locales for Spanish does not work in flex plugin

  I use the parameter following the compiler flex with Flex builder 3 and it works very well in local Spanish support.

  -local = en_US, es_US

  But the same setting does not work in eclipse installed with plugin flex4 running on flex SDK 3.5. I'm unable to build the project with this setting. If I remove es) WE then, it works very well.

  Here's my setting of the compiler

  -local = en_US, es_US-allow-source-path-to overlap = true - source-path = locale / {local}

  I've never used Eclipse for flex development, but yes it sounds like you are configuring the sdk ok.

  It fails to build, but gives no error, very weird

• My .as class does not work in flex project

  I have a .as file extended Sprite and restores Visual elements on the screen

  the package of actions {}

  import flash.display.Sprite;

  SerializableAttribute public class Monaction extends Sprite {}
  public void Monaction () {}

  }

  }
  }

  I am trying to enter it in a Flex project, to add these shapes to my stage.

  I created a package called actions carried out under the programme of the CBC and saved the .as file.

  Because it restores Visual elements, I thought that I could wrap as a UI component and add it to the stage. So I created a new MyUIComp.as .as file that basically looks like this:

  the package of actions {}

  import of actionscript. Monaction;
  Import mx.core.UIComponent;

  SerializableAttribute public class MyUIComp extends UIComponent {}

  
  private var myAction:MyAction;

  public void MyUIComp() {}

  Monaction = new MyAction();

  }

  }
  }

  in my main mxml I add then to a UIComponent like this

  < mx:UIComponent id = "actionLocation" / >

  and in the script section, wiring, it:

  private function init (): void {}
  var actionToStage:MyUIComp = new MyUIComp();
  actionLocation.addChild (actionToStage);

  }

  I don't get any errors, but nothing appears on the scene either.

  Can someone be kind enough to tell me what I might have done wrong. I'm kinda new, so maybe I'm missing something obvious.

  Thank you

  David

  P.S. Ideally I would not create a class wrapper MyUIComp to make my class to extend UIComponent. I would use the original class as follows:

  import flash.display.Sprite;

  Import mx.core.UIComponent;

  SerializableAttribute public class Monaction extends Sprite UIComponent {}

  }

  but this double extends doesn't seem to work

  In your custom UIComponent class, your never added your Monaction instance. Try this for the MyUIComp constructor:

  public void MyUIComp() {}

  Monaction = new MyAction();

  this.addChild (myAction);

  }

• Why the camera StatusEvent method does not work in Flex 4.6 Desktop Application?

  Hello

  I have a simple Desktop Application (in collaboration with adobe AIR) that retrieves the web camera, adds two EventListener (activity and event status) and starts the preview.

  The event activity method works correctly while the status event method to notify that the correct connection is never thrown.

  Here is the method to initialize and start the webcam.

  private function videoDisplay_creationComplete():void 
  {
            camera = Camera.getCamera();
            camera.setMode(320,240,15,false);
            camera.setKeyFrameInterval (4);
            camera.setQuality (0,100);
  
  
            videoDisplay.attachCamera(camera);
  
  
            if (camera) 
            {
                      camera.addEventListener(ActivityEvent.ACTIVITY, camera_activity);
                      camera.addEventListener(StatusEvent.STATUS, camera_status);
            } 
            else 
                      textArea.text += "Nessuna camera disponibile.";
  }
  
  //Listener chiamato quando il video o il microfono vengono attivati/disattivati
  private function camera_activity(evt:ActivityEvent):void 
  {
            var str:String = "[{0}] activating:{1}\n";
  
            textArea.text += StringUtil.substitute(str,
                      evt.type,
                      evt.activating);
  }
  
  
  //Listener chiamato quando lo stato della webcam cambia
  private function camera_status(evt:StatusEvent):void 
  {
            var str:String = "[{0}] code:'{1}', level:'{2}'\n";
  
            textArea.text += StringUtil.substitute(str,
                      evt.type,
                      evt.code,
                      evt.level);
  
            switch (evt.code) 
            {
                      case "Camera.Muted":
                                Alert.show("User denied access to camera.");
                                break;
                      case "Camera.Unmuted":
                                Alert.show("User allowed access to camera.");
                                break;
            }
  }
  
  
  

  Thanks in advance.

  Greetings

  I think that if you already allowed access to the camera (for example the Flah Player asks you anymomre to allow) you wil get event direct activity instead of the status event.

  The status event is absolutely necessary if you get the triggering event. You can check current FPS the camera and if is > 0 for an interval of shor your camera works very well.

• Why addChild (new Shape()) does not work?

  I would like to know why the following code does not work:
  
  < mx:Application >
  ..
  private function doShape (): void {}
  var aShape:Shape = new Shape();
  this.addChild (aShape);
  }
  ..
  < mx:Button click = "doShape ()" / > "
  < / mx:Application >
  
  According to the docs, addChild() takes a DisplayObject instance as a parameter. The shape is a DisplayObject. However, I get an error (#1034) that the form cannot be converted to mx.core.IUIComponent
  
  I don't understand what the problem...

  Yes, it's always a witch hunt in a first time. Flex containers (for example, canvas, Panel, etc) may have only UIComponents and children, not only of DisplayObject. The thing is, one UIComponent can have simple DisplayObjects as children, so you have to wrap your form:

  var temp: UIComponent = new UIComponent();
  temp.addChild (aShape);
  this.addChild (temp);

• Calling a Flex action when you display a view html Bridge does not work

  Hello

  I have a second question.

  Our plug-in displays a view of the hosts using the html bridge code.  When our view is active and the user

  call the context menu in the Navigation on the left - and attempts to perform an Action (for example: Host disconnect).

  the container (IFrame) in which appears our point of view, is made to have a bright white background, and the action does not work

  work - no dialog boxes don't start or anything like that.

  Is there anything I can do to prevent this?

  Thanks for some tips more

  Cathy

  Hi Laurent,.

  I made a Plugin Acme - it does nothing except show a label and a text.  Then I added this to my plugin.xml for a host.

  The first photo shows just the plugin at the beginning.  Then I call the contextmenu - and select "Disconnect" - the third watch

  what looks like the view, and it's normal 'disconnect' are you sure... box is not running...

  But I noticed that I use the sdk 6.0ga - so maybe I should try with update 1?

  But for our production, we use the sdk 5.5, because it must operate on 5.5 as well.

  I also tried another host of Actions, such as alarms-> new alarm definition - but that works properly.  I don't know what could be the difference.

• Class Timer does not work

  I needed a periodic showStatus funcation and read the setInterval docs where he suggests to use the Timer class instead.

  I gave it a try, it won't work. However, setInterval works

  Compiled with flex sdk "Version 3.3.0 build 4852.

  The player comments send me to http://www.Adobe.com/software/Flash/about/ which indicates that "you have the version installed in 10,0,32,18"

  Here is the code with setInterval enabeld (works) just comment this line and uncomment the section that uses a top clock to test the other case.

• File.upload ActionScript does not work on Air SDK for iOS devices

  I try to use the ActionScript File.upload to transfer a file on Air SDK for iOS environment, but the File.upload does not work properly.

  When it is run on the simulator of the Air, it works very well as expectedand the file is successfully downloaded to the server. But when run on iOS devices (in my case, iPad), as I explained at the beginning, no event on the file upload handler is executed and not the http request has even hit the server. So I think that the problem may come from the client side.

  During my attempt to solve the problem, I found something complicated about this problem on iOS7. In other words, if you call the URLLoader.load method (although the URLLoader.load points to an address non-existed) before calling the File.upload method, the File.upload will work as expected on iOS7. Specifically, when the above OnTrickyButtonPressed method is run before the OnUploadButtonPressedmethod, File.upload will succeed on iOS7. But this only happens on iOS7. On iOS8, File.upload still refuses to work, regardless of knowing if the URLLoader.load is executed before.

  I think in my case, the problem is not the problem of sandbox or a session of Firefox problem described in the two links below, because not even a http request hit the side server. It seems that the Air SDK for iOS comes to fail send the http reason request any.

  http://StackOverflow.com/questions/351258/how-do-i-make-Flex-file-upload-work-on-Firefox-a nd-safari

  To make my problem clear, I list my environment below:

  • Development environment: Windows7 (64-bit) / Mac os 10.9.4 (tested on both OS platforms.)
  • IDE: Flash Builder 4.7
  • Air SDK: 3.8 / 16.0.0 (after that I have updated to the latest Air SDK 16.0.0, problem persists.)
  • Application server: Tomcat7 + spring

  Finally, I want to mention that download the file using URLLoader.load isn't an option in my case because I want to download large files in the future, which cannot be addressed with the URLLoader.load.

  I struggled with this for days. If I really appreciate it if anyone has an idea about this.

  Thanks in advance.

• AIR 4.0 captivates runtime does not work: alert "requires a version of Adobe AIR.

  I create a captive AIR runtime application, and it does not work on a target computer Windows *. Instead of this, the following alert:

  This application requires a version of Adobe AIR, which can not be found. Please download the latest version of this run of http://www.adobe.com/go/getair, or contact the author of the request for an updated version.

  How can I present the captive runtime differently so it does not appear this message? The application is a pure ActionScript application compiled with the binary adt of the stand-alone version of the SDK software (this is not Flex).

  In addition, I am troubled that a captive runtime ping Adobe AIR application somehow. I see occasional pings to an adobe site at launch of the application (something like airdownload2.adobe.com, if I remember correctly). No I do not use service calls in my application at this stage of development, it is very simple and should not be the net ping at all. Why is this happening? I need to disable it too.

  * Problem occurring only on a Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit specific computer. It's unfortunately the thin client machine so I can't tinker with it.

  SOLVED

  It turns out be a case of user error.

  The client, on the problem machine, has been stealthily in the zip package using some owner zip utilities that they have configured on their machine and double-clicking the exe file it there instead of having unzipped the package and running exe Explorer file. The error message is misleading.

  Obviously this question will be avoided for the retail version after that a Setup program is built.

• Tab order does not work on the image Panel and group tags

  I write code to control the tab on several tags such as "img", "Control Panel", "LinkButton",... and pie charts. When I run my program flash, tab indexing does not work. It works on the pie chart and "link button" tags, not on 'img', ' ', tags "group". I also tried to "activate the tab" on these fields and the true chilern tab, but no help.

  on the other hand when I disable the tab on the pie chart, and a link button, yet the tab is activated. It seems no matter what I do about the tab order, it does not reflect when I run my program.

  I really appreciate if someone could help me, I'm working with the sdk flex 4.1

  In Flex, components that receive focus must implement IFocusManagerComponent.  Most of the containers are not.

• points or note text box does not work

  that does not show anything useful.

  But if you draw the text property of a textfield and he reveals what you expect, but you don't see anything in the textfield, allow the border of the textfield object to make sure that you can see your textfield.  If you can't, embed your fonts.  If this does not work, check the color of your font.

  Hi Marco,.

  unless something has changed between the versions documented limits include:

  -support for the plugin (version 8.1) or later version PDF - with api to check the availability of DURATION if it is available on the machine

  -support for the version of the Flash plugin (without external dependencies)

  So that other plugins are not supported:

  The characters that are part of left right scripts are defined by default left to right. The characters that are part of right to left scripts (for example, Arabic or Hebrew) are defined right to the left. Characters such as punctuation (or the registered trademark symbol) is set according to the default direction. So in your example the trademark symbol filed out on the other side because his game rtl. Had you set the Arabic or Hebrew, it would come out right on the left. The default direction is also used to determine if the dash, for example, should go left or right.

  You want your English text to come out right on the left? What effect you are trying to get?

  Thank you
