The New Look of Flex

10/31/2008 02:51 am by ScaleNine Blog in flex 4

There have been a ton of new specs added for Flex 4 lately, so I thought I’d grab the most recent version of the Flex 4 SDK to see what’s changed since I last checked. I currently have the Flex 4 SDK set up to run in Flex Builder 3, so I just added some components [...]

Strongly Typed Proxies in AS3

10/30/2008 01:00 pm by joeberkovitz.com » Flex in Flex

Something I’ve often wanted in AS3 is a strongly typed proxy: an object that implements a known interface with typed methods, but where very method results in the invocation of some method like invokeMethod(methodName:String, args:Array).

Using 9-slice skins with SimpleButton objects: Scale the skins, not the object

10/27/2008 01:40 am by Manish Jethani in Flex

I’ve run into this a few times, and I keep forgetting about it each time. Here’s the problem: I’m trying to scale a SimpleButton object that uses 9-slice skins, and the 9-slice just won’t work. button = new SimpleButton(); addChild(button); button.upState = new upSkin(); button.overState = new overSkin(); button.downState = new downSkin(); button.width = getCalculatedWidth(); What am I doing wrong? It turns [...]

That’s right kiddies, I just got bit by the new security restrictions in Flash Player 10. A developer I’m working with claimed his new image save feature worked. I tried it, and it didn’t.

Flex Drill Down Charts

10/22/2008 06:06 pm by Flex RIA United in Flex Example

The shout “Drill, Baby, Drill” reminded me to put out the Flex drill down chart sample. One benefit of applying RIA technologies is for data visualization. Flex framework comes with fairly rich set of charting tools. A drill down chart is very good way of looking into data from different levels. If you happened to [...]
