I found one solution for the panel problem is to create a skin file… the one that FlashBuilder 4 auto-generates works fine. It implements the title as a spark label which works correctly.

Hello, thanks for the awesome code. My dataprovider is an XML Collection, and my datafield is often like “stats.sensors” which didn’t work. So here’s my little modification (part of):

var fieldDepth:int = fieldName.split(”.”).length;

var fieldsNames:Array = fieldName.split(”.”);

var value1:Number = (obj1[fieldsNames[0]][fieldsNames[1]] == ” || obj1[fieldsNames[0]][fieldsNames[1]] == null) ? null : new Number(obj1[fieldsNames[0]][fieldsNames[1]]);

Not to do the “me too” thing, but you really need to check out my blog post about this exact thing from late 2009. It also will show you how to optimize your font embedding, something you’re missing here.

[...] In my last post about this I found an ugly workaround in order to get embedded fonts to work in both MX and Spark Components. Since then I’ve learned the best way to do this is simply to select the checkbox in the Project Properties -> Flex Compiler -> “Use Flash Text Engine in MX Components” checkbox = true; [...]

Comment on Installing Flex 3.3 SDK + Data Visualization 3.3 SWC by Venkat

Why do I get watermarks, when I use ? If a license is required to remove watermarks, I have another question. Is “datavisualization_sdk3.3″ part of Flex SDK or part of Flash Builder?

Comment on RemoteObject ActionScript & Java Serialization Tips by Raghuvir Konanki

Hi,

I really liked this article. Infact these are the most common issues faced by the users. Now, I have a problem for which I am unable to find the solution. After hosting my application on tomcat, and when you leave tomcat idle for a long time the problem that arises is the arraycollections in flex are not being populated with data but my hibernate queries are executing as they should be. I’m guessing this should be a problem on the flex side. The integration that I’ve used for my application is
Flex + Cairngorm+ BlazeDS + Spring + Hibernate

Any thoughts ?

Thanks,
Raghu

Actually, the preferred way is to unpack the archive in /usr/local and then make a symbolic link:

ln -s apache-tomcat-6.0.14.tar.gz tomcat

That way, when you upgrade Tomcat later, all you have to do is to point the symbolic link to the new version.

Yup, worked for me with 3.6.16736 nightly. I copied it from a windows box to a mac and it was broke until I did this. Most grateful
