Embedded images were not mirroring even when the image component had an explicit layoutDirection set. The fix is to check if the contentHolder is an ILayoutDirectionElement when it is loaded and set the layoutDirection to null (inheriting).QE notes: NoDoc notes: NoBugs: SDK-25943Reviewer: JasonTests run: checkintestsIs noteworthy for integration: NoTicket Links:*********** http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-25943 http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-25943Modified Paths:************** flex/sdk/branches/4.x/frameworks/projects/framework/src/mx/controls/SWFLoader.as

Here's a good one for you ...I have a textFlow running through columns with a nice embedded font. Looks lovely. I then decide to add a completely unrelated Combo box to my app ... and now the textFlow doesn't render with the font. Comment out the combo and the font returns.I don't even know where to start with that one.I ran some tests and even with a completely dumb combo added with no DP it robs me of my font.This is now officially MENTAL!

Flash Builder 4 is now shipping....How about "Flash Builder 4 Plugin for Eclipse"?Anybody know it is released or not? Thanks.

HelloI got a sudden error when updating my SDK to 4.1.0.14965 that is just out. The error is just that TextConverter.importToFlow is not creating the TextFlow, it is returning null, thus the rest of my code gets crashed.I tried to isolate the error as far as I could and here is the status:- everything worked fine till SDK 4.1.0.14883- the TextFlow was not created when the source had an <a> tag (not sure if it happens with other tags) (it does work fine if the source has no extra tags)- TextFlow was created fine if I didn't pass a Configuration (even with an <a> tag in the source)So my guess is that there is some new changes to the Configuration, specially in the link format part, but I could not find anything else that would guide me to solve that. I looked in the TLF release notes, source code, Language Reference and nothing!!Would anyone guess how to solve that?? Was there indeed any update in the TLF source in that section? Is that a bug?This is my importToFlow use:__tfl

What's the fastest way to completely remove all the Flow elements from my TextFlow object? I don't want to kill the TextFlow and I need to keep the containers and composer. It's just the text I want to bin.

Hi. Does Flex MXML have the concept of a subroutine (like VB) or a method (like ActionScript)? Reason I ask is that I have some MXML code which will be duplicated (yecch!) unless I can refactor it into a subroutine of some sort.Ben EthridgeSenior Java Developer / Flex Newbie

Revision: 14999Revision: 14999Author: klin@adobe.comDate: 2010-03-24 13:33:13 -0700 (Wed, 24 Mar 2010)Log Message:***********Merge revision 14996 from 4.x to trunk.Update for implementing ILayoutDirectionElement in BitmapAsset and SpriteAsset. Instead of trying to handle transforming the assets directly, we leverage AdvancedLayoutFeatures to update the transform matrix of the assets. The main difference between the asset implementations and other ones is that width/height and scaleX/Y are tied to each other. The setters of each of those properties will set the backing value of their respective property. Another change is that we use the existence of layoutFeatures to keep track of whether the asset needs to de-mirror instead of using the mirror variable.Also, I removed a FIXME from AdvancedLayoutFeatures. We already short-circuit this in the classes that own the AdvancedLayoutFeatures. I changed the FIXMEs for the x getters to TODOs.QE notes: NoDoc notes: NoBugs: SDK-25879, SDK-2

I am building a large scale RIA application using Flash Builder 4.  At this point, I have the application separated into 10 modules (there will continue to be more added).  The main module holds navigation and a container to display the other modules.  Each module has it's own data model.  Cairngorm best practices suggest that I should define a reference to each data model in the main ModelLocator.  If I define a reference to each module's data model in the main module's ModelLocator, the compiler would compile each of those data model classes, as well as any classes that its properties are typed as (mainly VO/DTOs), into the main module.  While it is expected that the compiler work this way, it is not ideal.  I'd like each module to be as small and self-contained as possible, but this best practice method bloats the main module.  I currently do not have a reference to each data model on the ModelLocator, and it makes me feel like I am misusing M

The application that I am currently working on requires the ability for a user to log out of the application.  Logging out should effectively reset the entire state of the application back to what it was when the user first showed up to the login page.  The best solution would be to to just refresh the browser, but that is not an option.  I need the ability to reset the ModelLocator so that all of the views that bind to it revert back to the login state.  I can create a reset() function on ModelLocator and manually reinstantiate each property, but I'm looking for a better solution.  Since ModelLocator is a singleton, the static constant "_instance" (along with the "locked" constructor - forcing the user to use getInstance to get a reference) can only refer to one instance of ModelLocator.  I first tried a public reset function that would call the constructor and pass in the reference to the "key" (private function key), which I was hoping would reinstantia

I'm generating a large list of names and flowing them through columns. Each name is a link. This is fine when I use the default styling. As soon as I try to add some formatting with a TextLayoutFormat object the thing takes an age to load and the links become completely unresponsive. I get the spinning icon and then a few seconds later if I'm lucky it will attempt the format on the hover state.This is going to generate my entire use of the TLF in this project pointless unless I can find a less processor intensive way of formatting these links. Is it not possible to just apply a normal stylesheet to the text so I can at least embed a font and change the colour of the text when I rollover it?Would it be better to apply the styles inline?Any help on this appreciated.

I need some function, that parse xml <TextLayoutFormat...../> to  TextLayoutFormat object.sorry for english,is exists that function in TLF API?
