How to search in Flex SDK files in Flash Builder

Hi there
I want to search Flex sdk files out from flashbuilder - like I can do with the menu search->search dialog. Is there a way to do so? I am interested in it because sometimes I do not only want to hit F3 to go to a source file - I would like to serach the SDK.
Thanks,
Marc

Thanks Mich - very helpful. This is easier than searching the google trunk - here on my sytem it is CTRL+SHIFT+T.

Any tutorials on how to use the daily build of the Flex SDK to create Flash Player 10 content?

Is there a tutorial on Adobe on how to use the daily build of
the Flex SDK to create Flash Player 10 content?

The approach you take might depend on a few things, but it boils down to using mouse interactive coding to trigger whatever effect you eventually realize. The code you use will depend on the version of Actionscript you plan to use.
You could make this as a movieclip that is normally stopped at its first frame and when you mouseover or click the movieclip, it animates along its own timeline to its enlarged state. If the thumbnail is very small and the larger version is substantially larger, and both need to be clear images, this might be the better approach.
If this only involves enlarging something, you could also probably realize it just using Actionscript Tween coding rather than timeline animation.

The selected Flex SDK does not support building mobile projects

I am unable to create a new Actionscript Mobile project. The new project dialogue gives the error: "The selected Flex SDK does not support building mobile projects." I tried seting the default Flec SDK both to the SDK included with Flash Builder 4.7, and also to a version of the 4.6.0 SDK (build 23201) with AIR 3.3 SDK overlayed on it, which already existed on my computer. Both resulted in the same error. Any ideas?

Hi ,
Actionscript Mobile projects use AIR SDK by default in Flash Builder 4.7 . Flex SDK won't be used for Actionscript projects.
Could you please try creating an Actionscript project in fresh workspace and let me know if the issue still exists.
Also attach screenshot and error log if any.
Thanks,
Sanjay

Overlaying adobe air sdk 13 in flash builder 4.7

After overlaying adobe air sdk 13 in flash builder 4.7 I have followed the step mentioned on adobe site.
i am getting lots of error in flash builder 4.7 after overlaying.
Can anyone please suggest me how to get it done for flex mobile project.

You are probably missing the updated flash debug player that describes all the new methods to the application.
There is a good walkthrough of how to upgrade flash builder to a new library version, this is described in the first video of hsharma's starling tutorials.
Its very annoying though, i wish adobe would really build in a feature like this to update libraries.

How to put ActionScript into Catalyst project via Flash Builder?

I don't know if this is the wrong place to put this, but I need to add some ActionScript into my Catalyst project... from what I understand, it can only be done via Flash Builder. Am I right? How?

Hi Alex,
To edit the code of a Flash Catalyst project, you can import it into Flash Builder as follows:
File > Import > Flash Builder Project
Select the FXP file from Catalyst
Make sure "Import new copy of project" is selected, then hit Finish
I'm not sure where you got the ActionScript code that you're planning to use, but it may be difficult to integrate into your project if it's not designed for use with Flex (a lot of AS code snippets you'll find online are just for general use in Flash, not tailored for Flex applications). But you'll probably want to do something like this:
Locate the image you want to make random. If you're having trouble doing this, switch the view to Design mode, select the image with the mouse, and then switch back to Code mode to see the corresponding code highlighted.
If there's no id attribute set on the image, add one (so you can refer to it in code later).
If the tag is s:BitmapImage, change it to mx:Image (this is needed to make the contents dynamic)
If the root s:Application tag doesn't have a creationComplete handler, add one (type it partway, then hit Ctrl+Space, then choose "Generate Handler").
In the handler, add your code to randomly select an image filename.
Then set <your image's id>.source = <filename>
Hope that helps!

Importing Flex 2 projects in Flash Builder 4.5

I have a decent amount of Flash/ActionScript experience, but I'm brand new to both Flex and Flash Builder... so apologies for asking a potentially stupid question.
I just received a Flex project from a client, and I assumed I'd be able to work on it with my recent install of Flash Builder 4.5
But when I go to File > Import Flash Builder Project and navigate to the Project folder, I just get a warning that says:
“The folder does not contain a valid Flash Builder Project.”
I think this project might have originally been developed in Flex 2. Am I doing something wrong, or is it normal to not be able to import older Flex projects into Flash Builder? If Flash Builder can't import old Flex projects, what's the recommended workaround?

dont import it, do it from scratch in fb4

Which AIR SDK version does Flash Builder 4 come with

I have both Flex Builder 3 and Flash Builder 4 and would like to experiment with the AIR 2 Beta SDK.
Does Flash Builder 4 (since it's new) already come with AIR 2, or what do I do to have access to the AIR 2 SDK.
I'm working with the Eclipse plugin edition if that makes any difference, but answers from non-eclipse users are equally appreciated.

The SDKs you get from Adobe (unless specified) come with Air 1.5
If you want the Air 2 beta SDK (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/air2.html) You have to get the Flex SDK of choice (http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Flex+SDK) and the Air 2 SDK. You then overlay it on the Flex SDK (Using the instructions from the previous post)
Keep in mind that we have no idea when Adobe will decide to release Air 2, so if you are developing for it, you might have to wait on your release until they are ready. On top of that, you cannot have a user auto-update from air2beta to air2release. Basically, you can only "play" with it for now

How to use the Google Android Emulator in Flash Builder on Windows 7?

I want to try out Flash Builder to create an app, but I cannot find out how to use the Google Android Emulator in Flash Builder. The simulators in Flash Builder work, and the android emulator is installed correctly and can run. I just can't seem to connect them. How do I do that?

Hi Pahup,
Thank you for your reply!!
I adapted an Android App using Flash CC on a Mac. I already published this App for the Apple App Store. When I published the App for Android I chose Air 3.7.xxx for Android. I also created the p12 certificate using Flash CC in the publishing settigns for Android. So my App is theoretically finished and ready for Upload.
When I went to the Google Play Store Developer Console I had the options to
1.) Upload APK
or
2.) Prepare Store Entry
...so I prepared the Store entry first. When I go to "APK"-Tab in the console it looks like this:
... it says "Upload APK" and the Button below "Get Licence Key". When I click on the license Key Button it looks like this:
So I think I should enter this RSA-Key somehow into my App BEFORE uploading it to the Google Play Store. This is recommended when an Ap is set to be paid. My Application is set to paid.
I did not use any kind of licensing API (until now - cause I don´t know how and what it is for)
This is all new to me. It is the first App I want to bringt to the Android market. I really hoped it would be as easy as getting an app into the Apple App Store. I found so many step by step instructions for dummies on "How to get an Flash iOS App into the App Store plus creating all the certificates needed", so I thought it would be the same for Android. But there is no help at all at the moment. I am totally confused.
So any help, hint or instrusction would be great!!
By the way - this is the App I want to get into the Google Play Store

How to search for names of files in a folder

I've been searching this for awhile and haven't found anything so,I have a game and a game map editor or what not.. and you know when a user clicks on what map they want and such, but how can I search the files inside of a folder? I found JFileChooser but I don't really want to use that because it just wouldn't be right ... so any help would be nice, a link to somewhere, or another word to try and search
thanks

Look at the File API...
list() or listFiles() methods will return an array with every file and directory within a directory.

How to modify and compile SDK 4 frameworks file in Flash Builder 4

Hi,
I would like to modify \Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\4.0.0\frameworks\projects\framework\src\mx\core\ScrollControlBase.as file for testing of my application. How do I get FlashBuilder 4 to compile that file and include it into my build.
Thanks
Jerry

You can actually just take the source for that file and put it in your project in the correct package. So create the mx/core/ folders inside the src folder. and then create a new ScrollControlBase.as file with the contents you wish to run.
This is often called monkey patching because the files in your project folder have higher precedence over the ones in the sdk. Allowing you to override them.

Compiling an existing as3 packag with flex sdk (for a flash/flex/as beginner)

Hi
I am new to flash, flex, mxml, and actionscript (with a strong background in c, python, and scheme and some background in Java, VBA, and Javascript). I have a website for which I would like to develop some simple swf content. Basically, I would like to load esri shp files at runtime (and display a series of them as an animation) using these APIs.
I have read through some flex getting started material, but I have found that there is no better way to learn a framework/language than to look at and modify existing code. Happily, I've found a sample that is both salient to my project and about the right level of complexity.
I have the Flex SDK 3 and have created some simple movies. However, I haven't managed to compile the example as3 source code to a successful swf movie. I'd like to write mxml for layout/structure and as3 for functionality, and compile with mxmlc, period. Most examples I've found use of Flex Builder, Adobe Air plugins, other IDEs, etc and so they aren't very helpful.
Here is a link to the content I'm interested in, and more importantly the as3 source packages (zip or browesable) that I'd like to compile. There are two: ManualCartogramTest.as and USStatesCartogramExample. I can use mxmlc to compile either one sucessfully, but the resulting swf file displays nothing. It seems that I should use the ManualCartogramTest class to create an instance of it, but none of my efforts have worked.
Can anyone help out? How should I generate the swf movie given one of these packages? What key piece am I missing?
Jeff
For completeness, here is another example using the shp/dbf packages (from the creator) that I just can't figure out what to do with.

1. Perhaps this wasn't the right forum.
2. I had to use set -use-network=false to enter "local-with-filesystem" mode. Unfortunately, it took a while before I finally used a flash player that told me the problem instead of silently failing. The linux standalone or linux debugger from adobe was key! Gnash, swfdec, and my firefox plugin hid the problem.

How can I mask on flv file in flash cs4?

Hi,
I am new to Flash CS4. I saw one video on how to use flv file in flash and mask it. It is working fine when I am using the following option while importing a video file to flash:
Load external video with playback component
But when I tried with the following option it doesn't show the background, it shows only movie which is playing nicely. But not the background which has a bill board.
Embed FLV in SWF and play in timeline
It seems the mask is not working with this option.
How to solve this problem? Please help.
Actually it should be like the above.
But when I am using the option Embed FLV in SWF and play in timeline while importing the flv video, getting the result like below: It is not showing the Bill board as above.
See the layers created:

Hi,
I Tried with CS4 by creating mask layer and importing video , layers created were same as you have created and it is working for me .
Here is the screen shot of the .fla file.

Flex SDK 4.5 && flash player version

Why does Flex SDK 4.5 requires minimum flash player version 10.1 not 10 ?

I think the question was "Which flex components will not work in right way if we compile project with Flex SDK 4.5 and then run it in Flash Player 10.0 enviroment?"
For example - as I understand some new components in Flex SDK 4.5 use flash.globalization classes - so new spark formatters and ?validators? will not work in in Flash Player 10.0.
    * spark.formatter.NumberFormatter
    * spark.formatter.CurrencyFormatter
    * spark.formatter.DateTimeFormatter
    * spark.globalization.SortingCollator
    * spark.globalization.MatchingCollator
    * spark.globalization.StringTools
Also we have to pay attension to 'string sorting' functionality - because it could be dependent on flash.globalization also.
Are there another 'danger' components in Flex SDK 4.5 ?
