I'm trying to get the position of a FlowElement within its container. I can get the TextFlowline, the start and end position of the element within the Flow and from that I can get the container. I now need to work out how many lines that element sits within the container, work out the top and left of the element in pixels so I can move my viewport to that position.Any ideas? Is there a localToGlobal position for the element?

Is there a template that can be copied and tweaked based on the FlexPMD default ruleset?  The default ruleset seems to be geared towards applications rather than library/framework development and we'd like to tweak the rules so we can get a better picture of what we need to look at adjusting on the FlexUnit project.  FWIW, we've got our new sets of builds setup with FlexPMD, FlexCPD, and FlexMetrics on Hudson.  You can see an example @ http://flexunit.digitalprimates.net:8080/view/Flex%203.5/job/Demo-Versioned-Build/.Any help is appreciated.-Brian

Hi EveryOne,               I went through the FlexPMD DeveloperDocumentation and went through the steps provided. I am using Flexsdk 3.5, jdk 1.6, maven2.2.1 to run maven and for building my own Flex PMD CustomRuleSet but after going to the flex-pmd-parent and running mvn install it is showing error::Unable to load playerglobal.swc.Please give any Suggestions on how to fix it.

I am new to this and it would be helpful if somebody lets me know the steps for installing flexpdm and cpd on windows and test actionscript 2 project.

I excecuted the following commands being in flex-command-line directoryjava -Xmx256m -jar flex-pmd-command-line-1.0.RC3.jarjava -Xmx256m -jar flex-pmd-command-line-1.0.RC3.jar -s "C:\Documents and Settings\mmkrishna\My Documents\Flex Builder 3\SchoolWebsite\src" -o "C:\Documents and Settings\mmkrishna\Desktop\OPDir" . -r custom_ruleset.xmljava -Xmx256m -jar flex-pmd-command-line-1.0.RC3.jar -s C:\Documents and Settings\mmkrishna\My Documents\Flex Builder 3\SchoolWebsite\src -o "C:\Documents and Settings\mmkrishna\Desktop\OPDir"the output directory is empty when i checked .. no pmd.xml created.whats the problem exactlythannks in advance aditya

I know I can get the position as a number of characters in from the root but specifically I need to detect exactly where my element sits within the line it is on and in particular if a LINK element object is sat at the start of the line and is not broken.I know you can set the breakOpportunity property to prevent a link from breaking on a line so can I detect if a link has broken?Surely there's a way to detect where an element or character of an element sits on a line.Any help on this would be appreciated. I've been fighting this framework for the last 4 days now ... I need this to work!🙂

If I create a LinkElement object in Actionscript with the intention to add it as a child to a Paragraph element within my TextFlow object how do I set the text of the link? Do I have to add a Span as well?

I've been searching online for hours about how to skin the scrollbar component thats embedded in the TextLayout component. I'm using Flash CS4 and Actionscript 3. I'm guessing it is very similar to skinning other components, but it doesn't seem to work the same way. Here's one line of code I'm trying:myTextLayoutComponent.setStyle("thumbUpSkin", "SliderThumbUp");where "myTextLayoutComponent" is the instance name of the TextLayout component, "thumbUpSkin" is the Style's skin I want to change, and "SliderThumbUp" is the Class name of a MovieClip in my library.This same code works perfectly with the ComboBox component, UIScrollBar, and similarly with other components.The documentation has all the skins listed in the "Styles" area, but this code does absolutely nothing. Does anyone have a clue how this can be accomplished? I'm guessing I'm very close, but missing something! I haven't been able to find anything online about skinning this new TextLayout component with ActionScript. Any help
