Image as Label with Checkbox in Flex - apache-flex

I want to use an image in my checkbox as label, anybody know how ?

When I tried doing the same thing with a RadioButton a while back, I ended up having to create my own component. This is what I did:
IconRadioButton.mxml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:HBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.controls.RadioButtonGroup;
[Bindable]
public var imgLabel:Class;
[Bindable]
public var groupName:RadioButtonGroup;
[Bindable]
public var selected:Boolean;
[Bindable]
public var value:String;
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:RadioButton
id="radioBtn"
group="{groupName}"
groupName="{groupName}"
selected="{selected}"
label=""
value="{value}"
visible="{visible}"
includeInLayout="{includeInLayout}" />
<mx:Image source="{imgLabel}" click="{radioBtn.selected = true}" />
</mx:HBox>
Then you could use it like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
xmlns:controls="com.example.controls.*">
<controls:IconRadioButton
groupName="{group}"
imgLabel="{AssetsFactory.getInstance().iconCCVisa}"
value="{CreditCardTypes.VISA}" />
...
Hope that maybe gets you started or gives you some ideas.

To use image as label, use the following code.
<mx:HBox width="100%">
<mx:RadioButton groupName="Yield"/>
<mx:Image source="#Embed('/scripts/btn_highest.png')"/>
</mx:HBox>

Flex ChangeWatcher doesn't work

I'm trying to implement a binding between some custom-built models and just beginning to dabble with the whole mx.binding.* collection. I tried this simple, stripped down example, but can't get the binding working correctly. Can somebody tell me where I'm going wrong?
// Model
package
{
import flash.events.EventDispatcher;
public class Model extends EventDispatcher
{
private var m_count:uint = 0;
[Bindable]
public function get Count():uint
{
return this.m_count;
}
public function set Count(c:uint):void
{
this.m_count = c;
}
}
}
And this is what the application MXML looks like
// MXML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" xmlns:core="*" creationComplete="this.init();">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.utils.describeType;
import mx.binding.utils.ChangeWatcher;
[Bindable]
public var model:Model;
public function init():void
{
var _this:Object = this;
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, function(e:Event):void {
_this.model.Count++;
});
this.model = new Model();
trace(ChangeWatcher.canWatch(this.model, "Count")); // This always returns false for some reason
trace(describeType(this.model));
}
public function UpdateText(s:String):void
{
trace(s);
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Text text="{this.model.Count}" creationComplete="trace(this);" />
</mx:WindowedApplication>
Update: I tried an even more bare-bones version as shown below.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" creationComplete="this.m_init();">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.binding.utils.ChangeWatcher;
[Bindable] public var m:Object = new Object();
public function m_init():void
{
trace(ChangeWatcher.canWatch(this, "m"));
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Text text="{this.m}" />
</mx:Application>
Still. Doesn't. Work. ChangeWatcher.canWatch still returns false, although the textfield does display [object Object].
public function init():void
{
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, increment);
this.model = new Model();
}
public function increment(e:Event):void
{
if(this.model)
this.model.Count++;
}
<mx:Text text="{model.Count}" creationComplete="trace(this);" /-->
i can give u one example of changeWatcher, that may be some help, right now i m working with this, it's helpful,

I removed all files inside the obj folder under the project and the problem seems to have gone away. It might have been that FlashDevelop was using older compiled binaries out of this folder, which made the output go out of sync with the source code.
Evidence to support this lies in two things. Changing the SDK did not affect the output on my own computer, which ruled out any SDK-specific issues. So I created a new project in another IDE on the same computer and copy-pasted the code into that one. This time it worked. That's when I thought it might be the cache and went in and deleted it.
In hindsight, I should have renamed it, and later tried to compile with the old cache in place again. That would have been conclusive.

Can't understand the exception in Flex?

Of course there's an error in the XML or in the .php file, maybe blank space or something else; check the first line of xml which has to start only with the following statement:

Anyway take a look to this page even if it's italian language the code is very simple to understand.
Hope to be useful
I think the problem is in this tag event.result.rss.channel.items it is not items it is item
Remove the extra 's' .....
The example is good...it worked for me...you can use this code below to check
Printing my code here...i added some more stuff to it

Setting up content children for custom mxml component

I am trying to develop a custom component to act as a divider.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:HBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Canvas id="left"/>
<mx:Canvas id="right"/>
</mx:HBox>
I would like to use this component to assign objects like this:
<Divider>
<left>
<mx:label text="Stuff I want to put in the left canvas"/>
<mx:label text="etc..."/>
<mx:label text="etc..."/>
</left>
<right>
<mx:label text="Stuff I want to put in the right canvas"/>
<mx:label text="etc..."/>
<mx:label text="etc..."/>
</right >
</Divider>
Unfortunately, this does not work. I get a compiler error saying :
In initializer for 'left': multiple initializer values for target type mx.containers.Canvas.
What am I missing ?
I ended up finding the solution reading the following from the Adobe website.
Using the technique described as template component, you can specify an array of a certain type of objects. I ended up rewriting my component as follow:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:HBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" initialize="init()">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
[ArrayElementType("mx.core.UIComponent")]
public var right:Array;
[ArrayElementType("mx.core.UIComponent")]
public var left:Array;
protected function init():void
{
var i:int;
for (i = 0; i < left.length; i++)
leftCanvas.addChild(left[i]);
for (i = 0; i < right.length; i++)
rightCanvas.addChild(right[i]);
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Canvas id="rightCanvas"/>
<mx:Canvas id="leftCanvas"/>
</mx:HBox>
It now works as intended.

Working on a Global Search tool - Just like on MAC

Hi I am working on a search tool for my website in Flex. I want it to work exactly like the "Spotlight" tool on MAC desktop. "http://www.recipester.org/images/6/66/How_to_Use_Spotlight_to_Search_on_Mac_OS_X_42.png" The link is to an image of spotlight.
I want to create almost the same thing in FLEX.
What I currently have is a "Autocomplete" box, and I get all the data I want in it. Code for the autocomplete is below:
<auto:AutoComplete borderStyle="none" id="txt_friends_search"
textAlign="left" prompt="Search Friends" dataProvider="{all_friends_list}"
allowEditingNewValues="true" allowMultipleSelection="true" allowNewValues="true"
backspaceAction="remove" labelField="label"
autoSelectEnabled="false" matchType="anyPart"
height="23" right="400" top="1" dropDownItemRenderer="{new ClassFactory(weather.index_cloud_global_search_item_renderer)}" />
And my ItemRenderer looks like :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:HBox
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
width="100%" height="100%"
verticalGap="0" horizontalGap="0"
creationComplete="init()"

import mx.utils.StringUtil;
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
import mx.controls.List;
public function init():void
{
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:HBox width="100%" verticalGap="0" horizontalGap="0">
<mx:HBox borderThickness="1" width="75" borderStyle="solid" horizontalAlign="left" horizontalScrollPolicy="off">
<mx:Label id="type" text="{data.type}" fontSize="12"/>
</mx:HBox>
<mx:HBox borderThickness="1" width="75" borderStyle="solid" horizontalAlign="left" horizontalScrollPolicy="off">
<!--mx:Label id="nameLabel" text="{data.label}" fontSize="12"/-->
<mx:List id="names" dataProvider="{all}"
</mx:HBox>
</mx:HBox>
<!--mx:Box id="colorBox" borderStyle="solid" width="50" height="25"/-->
<mx:Spacer width="15"/>
This shows the type and label of everything, example:
Friends ABC
Friends XYZ
Messages This is the message
Messages example for messages
Files filename1
Files filename123
I believe you get my point there.
But what I want to create is something like:
Friends ABC
XYZ
Messages This is the message
example for messages
Files filename1
filename123
MoreFiles
Can someone plz help me in this.
I actually have no idea how to move forward in this.
Let me know if you want more clarification on anything.

Since you're offering a bounty, I'll submit a different answer (as the previous one is technically valid).
Step #1: Download the Adobe Autocomplete Component integrate the class into your project.
Step #2: Create a new component that is derived from AutoComplete (I called mine SpotlightField.mxml)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<AutoComplete
xmlns="com.adobe.flex.extras.controls.*"
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
creationComplete="init()"
labelField="value"
itemRenderer="SpotlightFieldRenderer">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
private function init() : void
{
this.filterFunction = substringFilterFunction;
}
private function substringFilterFunction(element:*, text:String):Boolean
{
var label:String = this.itemToLabel(element);
return(label.toLowerCase().indexOf(text.toLowerCase())!=-1);
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
</AutoComplete>
Step #3: Create the ItemRenderer you want to apply to this new component (I called mine SpotlightFieldRenderer.mxml). Note that the code is the same as the previous example, but I'll post it again for completeness.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:HBox width="100%">
<mx:Label width="100" text="{data.type}" />
<mx:Label text="{data.value}" />
</mx:HBox>
</mx:Canvas>
Step #4: Update the AutoComplete.as class as follows:
/**
* #private
* Updates the dataProvider used for showing suggestions
*/
private function updateDataProvider():void
{
dataProvider = tempCollection;
collection.filterFunction = templateFilterFunction;
collection.refresh();
sort_and_filter(collection);
//In case there are no suggestions, check there is something in the localHistory
if(collection.length==0 && keepLocalHistory)
{
var so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("AutoCompleteData");
usingLocalHistory = true;
dataProvider = so.data.suggestions;
usingLocalHistory = false;
collection.filterFunction = templateFilterFunction;
collection.refresh();
}
}
private function sort_and_filter(source:Object):Object
{
if (source && source.length > 1) {
trace (source.length);
source.sortOn('type', Array.CASEINSENSITIVE);
var last:String = "";
for each(var entry:Object in source) {
var current:String = entry.type;
if (current != last)
last = current
else
entry.type = "";
last = entry.type;
}
}
return source;
}
You'll notice that the sort_and_filter function is defined, and called on the collection within updateDataProvider. The app now looks like this:
That's it. The sample application now looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" xmlns:local="*">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[

private var items:Array = [
{ type:'friends', value:'abc' },
{ type:'friends', value:'xyz' },
{ type:'messages', value:'this is the message' },
{ type:'messages', value:'example for messages' },
{ type:'files', value:'filename1' },
{ type:'files', value:'filename123' },
];
]]>
</mx:Script>
<local:SpotlightField dataProvider="{items}" width="400" />
</mx:Application>
Let me know if you have any further questions. There is still a bit of work to do depending on how you want to display the results, but this should get you 95% of the way there ;)
You may want to try something like this. This is just a sample I whipped up, but the basics are there for you to apply to your solution. What this is doing is creating a custom item render (as you've already done), but the container that it's rendering, it adjusts the data set slightly within set dataProvider so that it sorts and filters.
Obviously, you can expand upon this even further to add common icons, formatted text ... etc. The renderer has an explicit width set for the first "column" text. This is to better align results, but should probably be done while the list is being built (based on the string lengths of the values in the result set). Cheers ;)

How content dynamically updated in flex

i need your help about below purposes.
problem-1:In php we can easily move one page to another and easily use different type of function from those pages.In flex3 how i can use different type of .mxml pages like php. Please guide me with tutorials.It will really helpful for me.
problem-2: In same page some content dynamically updated its resource by done one task.How can i do that please guide me.
Rather than treating your Flex application as a series of pages, you may want to consider an all-in-one SWF instead. This greatly reduces navigation time, at the cost of a longer initial download. You can switch among different views using tab pages or view stacks. As far as keeping your functions for each page separate, you can do this by implementing each logical "page" as a separate MXML component. Your top-level application MXML would look something like this:
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
xmlns:my="com.mycompany.myapp"
>
<mx:ViewStack id="pageViewStack" width="100%" height="100%">
<my:MyComponent1 width="100%" height="100%"/>
<my:MyComponent2 width="100%" height="100%"/>
</mx:ViewStack>
</mx:Application>
For your second problem I have 2 files
