Scrolling automatically to the bottom of a textarea control in Flex

09/25/2008 07:55 pm in AS3

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)

History of RIA

09/25/2008 07:30 pm by Flex RIA United in Thinking Loud

The history of RIAs has been at the back of my mind for quite sometime now. I was hoping to learn a little about it and share it with you, but I failed miserably. I confess that my quests have only been shallow googlings. The inane investigation invariably raised another associated curiosity: History of the [...]

09/25/2008 05:59 pm in 3D (Away3D , Papervision)

I’ve updated the library with the following primitives: Cylinder; Cone; Sphere; Plane; So check the code. To add them to the view just add it as a child to the View3D instance, like so: [-]?View Code XML<primitives:Cube id="cube" z="200"/> <primitives:Sphere id="sphere" x="200" radius="75" /> <primitives:Cylinder id="cylinder" x="-200" radius="-75" openEnded="true" bothsides="true"/> <primitives:Cone id="cone" z="-200" radius="-75" openEnded="false" bothsides="true"/> <primitives:Plane id="plane" bothsides="true" width="75" height="75"/> Easy to use and [...]

09/25/2008 03:09 pm in AIR

You can enable the hand cursor on a MovieClip by defining the following statement MovieClip.buttonMode = true; However the solution does not work in-case you have a dynamic textField in that movieclip.

Using the Bookmarks View in Flex Builder 3 for your presentations

09/25/2008 12:46 pm by Marco Casario | RIAvolutionize the web in Flex

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

09/24/2008 08:44 pm by Flex RIA United in Technology

It looks not as cool as iPhone. Developers might buy it because it’s another sandbox to play with. Consumer? for $25 bucks more, most of them will go with iPhone, I think. How do you think?
