  • TimeDateAxis

    I’m going to try to shift the focus of my blog a little bit more to examples and away from the “I have this problem bla bla”. Well I just try to blog more because it a bit quiet here. I’m going to post some things that is useful for myself to archive and maybe…

  • DataGrid doesn’t update rowCount correctly

    I have an Bindable ArrayCollection with values and DataGrid that should show all the values (or rows) without the ugly scrollbars (I hate scrollbars). This is working correct by setting the rowCount property in DataGrid like this:  rowCount = “this.ArrayCollection.length” the tricky part is when you add items to that ArrayCollection on application run. Somehow…

  • Strange behaviour of Tree component

    I’m  making a tree like menu structure. It is already a hacky business but now I encountered another problem. And I have no clue where it is happening and if I do something wrong or Flex is messing it up. I have a Tree component that uses a tree renderer to render the items. In…

  • How to save files from Flex to your server with PHP

I think this is also cool in…

    I try to create my own extension with a saved AIR file. The point in doing this is that the user knows what files are created by what program and a file without an extension is just plain ugly. When you save a file in other programs you can choose to overwrite a file (that…

  • How to find an address with Google maps Flash API

    After the Flash Google maps API release I spend some time to see what is possible. I started with the documentation from Google. In there documentation they are using the latitude and longitude coordinates to set the center of your map. This is not really a human readable way to do it and personally I…

  • More playing with 3D and 3D physics engine

    I extended the Flex 3D example of my previous post some more. Now you can drag (left mousebutton) the objects and bounce them into each other. I think the smart visiters will see that it look a little like TileUI from Doug McCune or TileUI copy of Bill White. I tried to make something like…
