I need to design usa interactive Map in flex - apache-flex

i need of simple UsA map in flex ,all Area need to be click able as button .
Is there any tool available for designing buttons in various shape in flex or any build in free map is available in flex.
As vector format so that zoom in will not affect the quality.
i need to design like as shown in this site
http://www.futurevision.com.ua/products/usa_flash_map.php

This is the Degrafa Map Demo. It is still in the samples section so perhaps the site was down at the time.
data viz sample page here:: http://www.degrafa.org/samples/data-visualization.html
Load the "Map Dashboard" sample and Right click/View source to get at the code.
Cheers
Jason.

I posted a similar question a while ago but needed more customization.
I used SVG path data in Degrafa to create custom maps of the world, continents, USA.. for a customer. Degrafa used to have a nice US map demo (with source code) as part of its samples, but it disappeared from the web. I don't know of any tool that would help to design clickable Flex shapes. I have no doubt though that Degrafa will provide more support and tools for converting and using SVG.
Some products I found: ilog, ArcGis
And also found this open-source library : GeoVis (birdeye)
But it's very unstable and haven't seen many changes recently.

I'll do that (or, I'll have a designer to do that) in illustrator, and then import the vector format in flex, with the [Embed] metadata.
I don't know if it is a downside for you (for me is a plus), but in this way you have to do everything in code, not with the FlexBuilder UI.

ZXing.Net.Mobile customising scannable area in xamarin.forms

There is an overlay feature available in the library. The overlay feature is nice but functionality wise it is just there to mask the UI.
Is there a way to customize the scannable area, I mean reduce the area that is scannable on the screen? When this can't be done there is no point in having the overlay right? The overlay does not really do anything.
This android app which uses the core Zxing library developed in java by the Zxing team https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.zxing.client.android you can see that - if the barcode/qr code lies outside the scanning area, it does not process it. That is what I am looking for. Is this possible?
According to this link github.com/Redth/ZXing.Net.Mobile/issues/87
the author of the library says
Unfortunately there's not a great short fix that I can think of for this scenario. Yes I could only check a certain region, but what would the region be set to? It makes sense to use the non-gray areas if you're using the default overlay, but if you use a custom overlay, you might not want the same region checked.
Just need some time to implement it (on ALL platforms - which is what takes so much effort).
It has been a more than a year since this issue was raised on github, so I don't think it will be implemented anytime soon.

How to make a draggable and scrollable map with inertia. C#

i am actually trying to follow this tutorial: "How to create a HTML draggable and scrollable map with inertia using Phaser framework" (google it, www. emanueleferonato .com)
Im using Unity but i configured it "pixel perfect" so i can use directly pixels like in AS3 and flashdevelop.
I basically need to make a map for the game where the player can drag in the X axis of the map.
I have no clue of how to do it, also it should have acceleration and deceleration.
Edit:
As i say before, i am using a custom framework that does not allow components, or UI, it works like FlashDevelop and AS3, so imagine the answer is in AS3.
Thanks!
I recommend looking up Unity's UI documentation (AND TUTORIALS!) :D They have really good articles, and the forums are a great resource too.
Regarding your specific problem- Scroll Rect is what you are looking for. You can implement 2D dragging, along with acceleratoion, deceleration, and other kinds of UI physics (inertia, elasticity, etc.) with it.
Please look for tutorials if you're just beginning to dabble with these. I hope that helps!

How to render OpenStreetMaps?

Did you know a way to render the .osm format given by OpenStreetMap in Php, JavaScript, ActionScript or other web plataform? What do you recomend to implement it? Where can i find good examples in the plataform you suggest? Thanks
You can find the information here on several rendering softwares http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Rendering
Also look at Cartagen which is an MIT Media lab project that renders OSM and other data in a HTML5 Canvas element dynamically on the client-side. http://www.cartagen.org/

Is there a list of reserved FlashVars names?

Currently I work on localization for a Flex application. From an article I know that you can control the localization with the following FlashVars:
resourceModuleURLs
localeChain
Are there any other FlashVars reserved by Adobe that a Flash/Flex Developer should know about?
I recently was playing with ContextMenuItem and found a list of words that cannot be used for a caption or label in a ContextMenuItem. Not sure if it helps.

Also a hack was suggested here, although I never tried it personally.
This article has a fairly easy tutorial. The conversation in the comments will cover a few best practices for you as well.
Here is an adobe livedoc on runtime localization that you may not have seen yet either.
This final link provides an update on the changes in the localization API made in Flex 3 and documents the deprecated and new classes/methods, etc. (a list with examples is at the bottom of the document).
On a side note if anyone is looking for a tool to help out with translations David Deraedt wrote some nice air apps called Lupo Localization Studio that are reasonably inexpensive.

Flash google map like http://online.wsj.com

I want to show flash google map as given on below link
http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/info-FDICBANKS111609_RETRO.html
Can anyone please help me from where can I start?
Is there any ready map available like that?
There's a sample Pan/Zoom Flex Application with source for moving around with a Map, which is pretty neat.
Then there's the Google Maps API for Flex, and they have a few examples and base projects you could use to get started.
TriceDesigns has a GoogleEarth Flex Example (with source).
And here's some other examples with source:
Basic Map: Source
China Relief: Source
Smart Info Window Demo: Source
Orthogonal 3D Map: Source
I would start with the Google Map API Flex Library, and one of those projects, and just go from there.
Hope that helps.
You could look at amMap for flash and flex maps and charts (there's a free and a pay version).
