Flex 3 dashboard

Hi,
I have an application in which I am using the flex 3 dashboard developed by WASI(http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/samples/dashboard/dashboard.html). In my application,I have to position 3 pods.
The code would display these pods as:
- Pod 1 - - Pod 2- -Pod3-
However, I want to display them in the following manner:
- Pod 1 -
- Pod 2- -Pod3-
Could you please let me know how to achieve this?

Thank you for your response. But, I think you mean to say I would have 4 pods, the 2nd being transparent but that would not look good from user point of view. I should have been more clear about the display. Sorry about that. Actually, I wanted the 1st pod width=100%, as follows:
- Pod 1 -
- Pod 2- -Pod3-

Thanks for the link, I did search a little while before making the original post. I guess I wasn't searching for the right thing though.
The method I found listed in here seems to work in IE but not Firefox. It could just be a caching issue though I'm not real familiar with firefox and don't really know how to get it to forget that it's been to a page already.
I also updated the link listed above to ask about any changes in the last upgrade related to this.
This was related to caching in firefox and it worked fine after I logged out of my apex.oracle.com account and cleared the personal cache in firefox and then started over.

Flex 3 Dashboard Displays Differently when Compiled Locally

I am writing an Adobe Flex Developers Center article on converting the Flex Dashboard example application to Flex 4.
http://examples.adobe.com/flex3/devnet/dashboard/main.html
The problem is the application renders differently when you right-click that application, download the zip source file, and compile it locally in Flex Builder 3 (see screenshot below).
Could a few of you please visit the above URL, download the code, import the project, then launch the app and tell me what you see?
After importing you will need to create an empty libs folder and right click another error message to recreate the html templates.
Thanks very much!

Dashboard appln using Flex+Java+MySQL+BlazeDS

I need to develop a Flex Dashboard application contaning Bar charts, pie charts, line charts which should display the data from MySql Database.
These charts should be refreshed every 5 minutes. I am comfortable with Java as backend instead of PHP. Do I need to use BlazeDS?
Can somebody suggest me how to develop this application or send me some sample working code?
Thanks.

For a Flex/Java/BlazeDS you can go to this blog http://coenraets.org/, there's a sample app named SalesBuilder that'll be very helpful for you I think. If you're looking for an example about the timer look at the docs what you need to do basically is add a timer setting the interval, add event listener when the timer gets the determined time and then call your services and so, then restart the timer.

Problems with Dashboard Demo App in Flash Builder 4

I imported the Adobe Flex Dashboard app into Flash Builder 4 using SD 4.1 and selected "Use Flex 3 compatibility mode", but there are still some issues after import.
I'm not talking about having to create the "libs" folder and re-generate the HTML templates. I know why that needs to be done. I'm also not talking about the IStroke and IFill errors you get for the number of arguments to the apply() and begin() methods, as those interfaces changed in Flex 3.5.
But when I get the app launched, the chart datatips are just a black rectangle (no text) and the combobox entry text is invisible.
I'm going to try and fix these, but I thought selecting "Use Flex 3 compatibility mode" meant no changed required?

Here is a simple example. Create a new project in Flash Builder 4 and in the project properties compiler section, select "Use Flex 3 compatibility mode". Then launch the app, hover over a column in the chart and you see black rectangles, not data tips. Why is this and how to fix?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
creationComplete="srv.send()"
height="600">

Dashboard - login screen before all pods

hi
I am using Flex Dashboard framework consisting of pods for my
application. My requirement is to provide user a login screen which
will authenticate user credentials. Once the credentials are
validated then login click should allow the user to go inside the
application.
Since the application is developed using dashboard pods so I
need to know how will I integrate the login screen with pod
framework. User should be presented with the login screen first and
after validate credentials all the pods should be visible.
This is very urgent for me can you please let me know, how
can I achieve the above requirement using POD framework

ViewStack

Workspace manager view

Is there an easy out of the box solution for creating a "manager" view of tasks within Workspace? The requirement is for a user to log in and search all tasks regardless of whether or not they interacted with that task (by default the search templates only show tasks which were assigned to you at some point). I know you could share the individual queues but this gets cumbersome when a manager looks after a lot of employees.

You could also create a group for each user that also contains the manager. This could be done programatically. If the user claimed the task, it would no longer be in the queue. It would not prove any work was done. A flaky thing is even if the user's queue is shared to the manager, the manager will not be able to see the item in the user's queue after being claimed.
I solve the manager review requirement by calling a logging sub process between each step. It writes to a separate table. The Manager logs into a Flex dashboard to review the data and slice up multiple ways. Certain workflow steps may have multiple business process steps. For those, the user sets a status in a drop down before clicking complete. The process is routed to logging then back to the same user step unless the status has been set to the one that exits the loop.

Configure JNDI for BlazeDS

Hi everybody, I'm having some problems.
Actualy I have a Flex project, configured with BlazeDS that will work as a dashboard for a system.
The system is a java web project that need send messages to the dashboard.
The main idea is to configure blazeDS in a server and run the java web aplication and the flex dashboard in another one.
How could I configure flex application and java web application to consume and produce messages using the blazeDS that is hosted in another server?
Some people told me that I need to use JNDI but I didn´t understand very well. Could anybody help to config the tomcat´s context.xml file and the configurations flex file from flex application and java web application?
Thanks,
Paulo Fabiano Langer

>>How could I configure flex application and java web application to consume and produce messages using the blazeDS that is hosted in another server?
Configuring a Flex application to use BlazeDS when the Flex application and BlazeDS are hosted on different servers is pretty easy. You just need to make sure when you compile your Flex application that the services-config.xml file that you compile against contains all the correct information to connect to the BlazeDS server. For example if you have a channel definition in your services-config.xml file that uses tokens you would need to replace the tokens with hardcoded values that pointed to your BlazeDS server.
<channel-definition id="my-amf" class="mx.messaging.channels.AMFChannel">
    <endpoint url="http://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/amf" class="flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint"/>
    <properties>
        <polling-enabled>false</polling-enabled>
     </properties>
</channel-definition>
If you plan on deploying your Flex application on ServerA but BlazeDS is running on ServerB the above code won't work because {server.name} will be replaced at runtime by ServerA because this is where the Flex application will be loaded from. You'd need to replace {server.name} with ServerB so that when the Flex application got loaded from ServerA it would know to connect to the BlazeDS server at ServerB.
Also, when deploying your Flex application and BlazeDS on separate servers you will need a cross-domain.xml file on the BlazeDS server to allow the Flex application to communicate with it. This is because of the way that security works in the Flash player. For more information on security in the Flash player and cross-domain.xml files take a look at the following chapter in the Programming ActionScript 3.0 guide.
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm?href=00001950.html
If you want your Flex application and your Java web application to both produce and consume messages using BlazeDS you are going to need to use JMS. The following article on using BlazeDS and JMS should help you.
http://www.joshuaostrom.com/2008/08/01/tunkey-blazeds-jms-activemq/
Basically, your Flex application would send a message to a JMS messaging destination in BlazeDS. BlazeDS would send this message into the JMS messaging system. Your Java application would be subscribed to the same JMS topic/queue that BlazeDS was configured to use and so would receive the message the Flex application sent to BlazeDS. Sending messages from the Java application to be received by the Flex application would basically work the same way in reverse.
Hope that helps.

Urgent:Flex 3 Dashboard in Flash 4

Hi
I have a need to implement dashboard for a project.
I tried using the dahboard example bundled with Flex 3.
It works all fine.
However, when I try to compile it using Flash 4 I am facing a peculiar problem.
Everything else works fine except that when I minimize a pod it never gets maximized.
I checked for the event listeners.
There are two event listeners attached to the title bar of the panel.These dispatch the maximize event.
However, after putting debug points for the method calls, I found that incase of flash 4 these events never get invoked.
Can anyone please help me with this.
Appreciating all your help,
Yukti

Hi, I am having same problem as you described and found out the way to set up the CSS file. Now it hooks all the buttons and so on properly. But minimized button still doesn't go to maximized. I thought it has some problems with EventListener. Couldn't find how.
Is there anything that I should change to get minimized pod back to maximized?
Thanks in advance!!

Add Xcelsius Dashboard to Web Dynpro via Flex Wrapper

Hello all,
I'm trying to get my application, similar described in [https://websmp105.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001894392008E.pdf].
When running the app in Flex Builder 3 i got the following error in firefox(i guess flashplayer debugger?!)
SecurityError: Error #2047: Verletzung der Sicherheits-Sandbox: parent: file u2026bin-release/xyz.swf kann nicht auf file u2026bin-debug/xyz.swf zugreifen.
     at flash.display::DisplayObject/get parent()
     at mx.managers::SystemManager/executeCallbacks()
     at mx.managers::SystemManager/docFrameHandler()
Help: Because the description of the error is in German, I'll try to translate: file xyz.swf cannot access file xyz.swf!
(xyz.swf) is both times in the same folder, so I suggest, that would be the same file... But where can I change that? And where in Flex Builder do i have to add my swf exportet from Xcelsius? Any help available?
Thank you very much in advance.
Edited by: Bonita Boehmer on Jun 20, 2011 3:53 PM

Thank you very much for your fast reply.
I found that documentation before, but my Slider is embedded in an Xcelsius-Dashboard. I tried to get the event-handling working, but only in VC, and not in Web Dynpro4J.
I use the GenericXcelsiusWrapper.swf as Wrapper for the Xcelsius Dashboard, and I can write data in the Flash Island and display it, but after a change in WD the changed value will not be displayed in the TextView.
Do I have to handle an GAC-Event-Property, and if yes, which name should I use?
Hope, anyone has experience with that or has a document, because I didn't find any, and can help.
Best regards,
Bonita
