Adobe announced it is halting development of Flash Player for mobile in the browser, but it will continue support for AIR on mobile devices.Will Flex survive long term? I have my doubts.I'll still develop my skills in Flex and see what happens with Flex 5, but I'll also start studying Ruby on Rails, which I actually dislike because it seems so obscure, but there are more jobs in RoR and I hear the pay rates are better.Good job Adobe. Glad to see you're able to get the job done! Not.

I am facing issue in Number to String Conversion. I am using flex 4.5 SDK I have 17 digit numbers and when i try to convert in to string then it is not giving me proper result.Var myNumber :Number = 64336512942563914;Var myString:String  = myNumber.toString();trace(“myString ”+myString);trace(“myNumber ”+myNumber);//out put :myString 64336512942563910myNumber 64336512942563910Its automatically converts 17th digit to “0” valueI have also tried type conversion(Srting(myNumber)) but no Luck same problem ,Also tried directly displaying number in the trace()  function same problem I am getting  Is this issue in the Flex Sting Class?

I imagine I must be missing something, as I've searched a lot and no one is asking this question. We have a TextArea that we allow the user to style (size, color, etc.). We also have Spark TextInputs for forms in the application. When the user copies text, say 60 point red text, they can paste that into a TextInput and it keeps the formatting, thus messing up the TextInput. Is there a quick way to prevent formatting from getting pasted into the TextInput?I have implemented a workaround where we trap any paste events into the TextInputs and use TLF to turn text in the TextClipboard into plain text, but that is not the cleanest or most efficient way to handle it. Is there something simple I'm missing that allows me to block styling being pasted into a TextInput?

We have an application that requires a user to be able to select a font for the RichEditableText.  The user must then be able to specify a new character width for the characters displayed in the RichEditableText field without changing the font size.  If the height is changed, a new font size is calculated and the font size applied to the RichEditableText.  Calculating a new font size from the user specified height can be done through an algorithm.   Is it even possible to change the character width of characters in a RichEditableText field?

In the documentation (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Flex/4.0/LayoutMirroring/index.html) I've read, it says that Halo is not supported for layout mirroring/bidi text. What exactly does this mean?Doing some simple testing with RichText, RichEditableText, DataGrid, and AdvancedDataGrid components, I've found that both Spark and Halo theme will produce a mirrored app with RTL text format. However, the Halo one will only work if TextAlign is set to TextAlign.START for the components. Otherwise the text will be left-aligned.I'm looking into providing full support for Arabic/Hebrew/etc for a large app that has Halo theme. Am I going to run into a lot of complications because of this? Or will it be possible to get around the issues, like in the example above by adding textAlign=TextAlign.START? (that would also be a big hassle, but at least be a possible solution)Thanks,Kyle

Let's start with the goal. I need cookies to work as they do in any 'normal' browser.I have a Flex application that will be calling a webservice(REST service at url http://www.abc.xyz/setcookie) and the service returns a response and a cookie.  The service actually only records any cookies that it gets and returns another cookie along with a message of what it got in the cookie and what it set in the cookie. If I call this service in a browser (Mozilla) then the first time through there is no cookie but one is set and returned.  The 2nd time calling with Mozilla I get the message that there is 1 cookie in the request and one is set and returned. All is well.I code a flex application to simply call this service and try to decode the response. But am having problems.1. Can't find the cookie in the ResultEvent. Look in the headers that are available (using Debug) but they don't seem to be there. Are they in the container? (Browser)?2. When I make an HTTP Request using an HTTPSer

Hello,I've a requirement to tab through all the components that are in the tab order in a screen. But it has to be done programmatically on press of a button, if a user presses tab key on the keyboard, tabbing follows an order as set on the tabIndex property of each and every component. can this be mocked by a button press? if so how can I it be done?

In trying to build entirely from source code, I've come across a dependency on trunk/frameworks/libs/player/10/playerglobal.swc, but I don't see how/where that gets built.

Feature DescriptionAdd a way for the user to force the text to break and continue on the next column or container.It is an attribute, and you should either be able to apply it to an element to force it to be the last in the column or container, or the first in the next column or container.Related ProductsInDesign has special break characters that can be inserted to force text to continue on the next column, frame, page, even page, or odd page.HTML has the <br/> element, which forces following text onto the next line.The W3C also got a draft document to define the column break. Please refer to http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-multicol/#column-breaksWe bought in some of their definition and expand them to be the container break. Currently, we got the following attribute:columnBreakBefore columnBreakAfter containerBreakBefore containerBreakAfter each of them may be set the value of:autoalwaysinheritauto means:Neither force nor forbid a container/column break before (after, inside) the gene

     I have 3 TFL fields on the stage. They are linked so the text overflow from the first spills into the subsequent fields 2 and 3. I want to change the text dynamically but when I do the overflow text do not "overflow" into the other fields. It is as if they were not linked at all. For instance, when I call: textField1.htmlText = "bla bla bla......"  the first text field displays the text just fine but the "overflow" does not display in textField2 and textField3 eventhough they are linked on the stage and the initial text displays just fine.Can this be done?\\Nick

We are developing conference kind of application in which 4-5 users can have a video and audio chat with each other.My stream is being published to all other users and same time all other streams are retrieved.But before publishing my stream my bandwidth is checked and if it is low (i.e. lower then 80 kbps)My video quality is set accordingly but audio quality is fixed.Now in publishing my stream there is no issue if other users have better bandwidth. They are getting proper voice and video from my stream.But as I have lower bandwidth and if I am receiving more than 2 streams then I am not able to view video properly and even voice gets disturbed.So ultimately I want to adjust the streams I am receiving for the users other than me. So is that possible using some logic via FMS or via Actionscript?Otherwise please hit some logic to handle more streams in lower bandwidth so that at least voice should be clear with lower video clarity. Development environment is Flex SDK 4.5.1 and FMS 3.5 d

Please provide a working multiscreen application with Cairngorm 3.I struggle to work on the sample application projects in trunk with SVN (written by F. Le Droff) but it would be more productive if we can have a full up to date working projects. Thanks.

Hi,I need to compile TLF from  sources and I'm missing some compile arguments.I know I must use Ant and build.xml.Any one has the arguments of  working example?(Flash Builder - sdk 4)Thanks.

How do you allow the popup to be moved about when you open it like this<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"               xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"               xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">    <fx:Declarations>        <fx:Component className="MyAlert">            <s:SkinnablePopUpContainer>                <s:TitleWindow title="Launching World Domination..." close="close()">                    <s:VGroup horizontalAlign="center" width="100%"> &nb

Today, I started to use Flash Builder 4.5 with the new 4.5 sdk. Before that, I used Flex Hero. After compiling my web application I realized that the fonts got thicker, just a bit thicker. I use the TLF which is originally embedded into the sdk.I use cff embedded fonts. By the way it is helvetica. Any idea?I am 100% sure that some change happened in TLF, because the fonts are stored in different swfs which were compiled a few month earlier.And I am also having a strange issue with TLF when I am having EditManager. Look at the "benjaminbalazsisverystrange" text please.http://benji.hu/temp/tlf.pngThe fonts were purchased from LinoType, so the file must be okay.

Hi, up to yesterday I had a problem where an index out of bounds exception (Error #2006) was thrown after doing a compose()/updateAllControllers() cycle several times, with no apparent reason.

I know there is probably a simple answer to this that I'm missing... but when I create a type box, begin to type and then need to start a new paragraph or hit return for whatever reason, my type box ends up with the text overflow "+" I cannot make lists and don't understand what I'm overlooking. I've been using Pagemaker and I'm new to InDesign. Please help!

Hello,I upgraded to Flash 11 from 10.3 and my truncation logic using TLF no longer works correctly with embedded fonts because, it seems, TextFlow is not processing or applying the embedded font until it is rendered in it's container on screen. To clarify, here is the function I am using to calculate the point at which I need to truncate:public static function findLastVisibleIndex(textFlow:TextFlow, width:int, height:int):int {                                         var textFlowComposer:IFlowComposer = textFlow.flowComposer;                                        if (textFlowComposer.numControllers == 0) {     &
