Yesterday I've blogged on using the Bookmarks View in Flex Builder. I've found another cool feature you can use with Bookmarks to associate a custom keyboard shortcut to create a bookmark. Follow these steps in Flex Builder 3 IDE
This is more for archive sake, but this did the trick http://butterfliesandbugs.wordpress.com/2007/08/20/scrolling-to-the-bottom-of-a-container-or-textarea-automatically/ The real trick is doing it in the valueCommit handler, not the change handler (which is where I tried originally)
This week I’ve been at Oracle Open World checking out all of the new applications Oracle has been building with Flex. Some of these seem to be integrating Flex and ADF which is a great combination of technologies! I’ve recorded videos of some of these applications which I hope to edit and publish [...]
I'm setting up the demo assets I'll show in my speech at the FOTB conference in Brighton. In a presentation where the speaker has to show a lot of code buried in several different classes it's extremely useful to have the ability to quickly access to the right line of code. That avoids the speaker from wasting a lot of time searching for the code or the file he needs and from those embarrassing and long silence moments
My brain almost exploded with meta-geekiness. If you haven’t seen the Nemo 440 AIR app, it’s a SWF decompiler written in AS3 as an AIR application, written by Vadim Melnik. It lets you load SWF files (or SWCs) and it will show you a list of all classes in the SWF, as well as the [...]
In central Atlanta, driving home from a friends house, my wife calls. “My friend came over, but there was no gas on the way here.  She doesn’t have enough to make it home.” “No worries, I’ll stop by a place on the way home, buy a tank, and fill it up.  At worse, I’ll just siphon out [...]
French partner Kap Lab has released some very impressive Flex / AS3 components. Trees, data visualization, component inspection, and more. And they are all free for the download! [Via Michael Chaize].
I’ve been working on a Flex app where I needed to force landscape printing to ensure it would print out well.  Relying on the user to choose landscape won’t work.  Steven Sacks had the original solution in AS2/AS1.  I needed something for AS3 and in Flex.  Darron Schall had some additional advice for Flex 1.5 built [...]
Flex has always provided rich functionality for customizing the appearance of its built-in components. You can start with the default appearance of the components and extensively tweak their properties through CSS styles, or you can completely replace the default appearance by drawing custom vector or bitmap skins using visual design tools, such as the tools [...]

This is my first post in a couple of months, I’ve really been slacking on my blog.. Primarly becuase I spent most of July and August finishing up my last work term @ Adobe, they kept me busy creating a portal system that will be used internally to help manage releases of one of there products. I also [...]
After I posted my technique for using the Flash bitmap drawing methods to perform calculations on arrays, Tom Carden started posting a few test of his own that tried to optimize some code-only algorithms. In his test he got an algorithm that used a hash table lookup method to be almost as fast as the [...]
This Sunday morning seems like a fine moment for one of my increasingly infrequent posts.  It’s a gentle cloudy morning in Philadelphia, where I’m about to attend the ISMIR 08 conference on music information retrieval.  Although I’ve lately been busier than I have ever been in my life, here in Philly I’m isolated enough from [...]

Recently I was thinking about how to do some complex Array manipulation, and how to do it fast. I needed to take a large source Array and filter it two different ways, producing two new filtered arrays, each of which is made up of a subset of the values in the source array. Then I [...]
