Hi Geeta,
please do not open twice threads for the same issue.
I close your first thread here:

Custom Components and Properties in Flex Builder Design View

How do I create a custom component with custom properties
that renders well in Flex Builder design view?
This is a simple HelloWorld example of what I am trying
below. Here is the HelloWorld.mxml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
width="500" height="500">
<mx:Script><![CDATA[
[Bindable]
public var message:String;
]]></mx:Script>
<mx:Label x="100" y="100" text="{message}" />
</mx:Canvas>
And then when I use it in another mxml file, the design view
does not show the label with the 'Hello World' value - instead it
just shows {message} in design view where the label is located.
When I run it as a compiled app in flash, the 'Hello World' is
displayed correctly:
-- HelloWorldTest.mxml --
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
xmlns:views="mypackage.*" width="500" height="500">
<views:SimpleLine message="Hello World."/>
</mx:Canvas>

design view does not do any variable assignments or function
evaluations, so you won't be able to see it even if you don't use a
custom component.

Flex Builder Design View programmatic skinning

I am writing programmatic skins, by extending
ProgrammaticSkin class. If i apply these skins to mx:Button, i can
see the skin in Flex Builder design view. But when i style my
custom component with programmatic skins, Flex Builder design view
does not show the skin, though the skin is applied when i run the
application. Is there a way for me to write my custom classes
(class Node extends UIComponent), and apply skins, so that i can
see the skins in Flex Builder design view.

Actually I found the answer to my question. You can find it
in my blog.

SVG Viewer Error

Hi,
I've been getting the folliwing error with SVG viewer:
XML Parsing Error: mismatched tag. Expected: </svg>.
Any idea what this is??
Thanks
Venus

Venus,
SVG means Scaler Vector Graphics which run to XML standard, this has to be "well formed" and REQUIRES opening and closing tags.
That error is saying that it is finding the opening <svg> tag and cannot find the closing </svg> tag, thus rendering the svg code as not XML compliant and creating the parsing error.
ie.
<svg>
<childtag>
<anotherchildTag>info</anotherchildTag>
..etc
</childtag>
..etc
</svg>(this is missing producing your error)This can happen when you first enter a page with a graph on it that uses page items which haven't been initialised yet.
It doesn't matter if you have entered a default value on the item, when the Graph reads the items value, the default hasn't been set.
I'm guessing here, but I think it produces svg code that is too long and the end tag gets lost. when the parser trys to parse it, the first thing it finds is no closing tag.
To get round it you can use a computation that fires before header to set the default values on your referenced page items.
Let me know if this helps.

Where can I download Flex Builder 3 installer?

My installation of Flex Builder 3 has somehow become corrupt and now I can't import web service (WSDL) files, it returns the error:
Unable to load the file /.metadata/.plugins/com.adobe.flexbuilder.webservices/wsdl.xml
I guess that this will probably be fixed by reinstalling Flex Builder, but I can't find where to download the installer; the links that say "Flex Builder 3" actually lead to Flash Builder 4 pages. I don't have any installation media or a local copy of the installer. I'm using the educational license.
Can anyone tell me where to download the installer?

Cannot run the samples in Flex Builde beta 3

The installation of Flex Builder finished OK. I did choose to
install Flash 9.0 in both IE and FF, but for some reason when going
to the examples it asks me to install Flesh 8.0. Even if I say yes
to th eprompt it doesn't display.
I have even re-installed the flas Active X manually and even
regieterd it as per instructions on the Installation of Flex
Builder 2.0 beta 3 page,, but still no luck...
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

P.S. I asked Chris Agruss (our build and installer guru)
about some
possible reasons why the Flash player installer might have
failed to
work for IE. I've attached his reply.
Rebecca - Adobe
Here are a few cases I know about where the ActiveX plugin
for FP won�t
be installed normally:
� IE is running at the time, and especially if activeX
has been run
� Outlook, or some other program that runs the IE
engine under the hood,
is running
� Older ActiveX version installed that needs some Dark
Magic, or
explicit uninstallation of some sort
In the first two cases, where IE is in use, the plugin will
normally be
installed after a reboot, but until then it will look as if
the
installation didn�t work.

SVG Viewer replacement

Hello
Does anybody know if SAP has provided a solution yet to the Visual Composer Design time client's requirement for SVG Viewer? The original text is below from one of their communications.
Thanks
A prerequisite for the Visual Composer design-time client is the installation of the Adobe SVG Viewer. Adobe has announced that it plans to discontinue support for this viewer as of January 1, 2008. Until that time, customers and partners modeling applications with Visual Composer should continue using the viewer as they have done until now. During the course of 2007, SAP will provide a solution so that Visual Composer will no longer require this viewer.

Waiting to see if 7.1 CE will still require SVG viewer

Design view not working after importing project from Flex Builder

After importing a project from Flex Builder to Flash Builder I am no longer able to see anything in the design view. I am using the flex 4.5 sdk.
Any idea how I can get this design view working? I heard it could have something to do with the metadata directory but am slightly lost here?...
Adam

Could you please provide more information as to what exactly are you importing. Also does Design View not lauch at all or does it give errors. Would it be possible for you to share the logs.
Meanwhile you can try cleaning the workspace and importing again to see if that solves the issue.

Nikos,
When using grouped columns you should change the <mx:columns> to <mx:groupedColumns>, I ran this example in a sandbox app and it works fine.
EXAMPLE:
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid id="deals" displayItemsExpanded="true" dataProvider="{flatData}" width="100%" height="373"
        sortExpertMode="true" variableRowHeight="true" headerStyleName="smallHeader" editable="false" fontWeight="normal">
       <mx:groupedColumns>
            <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn width="75">
            </mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn>
            <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup headerText="Client side">
                <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField="customer" headerText="Mon Ref" width="60" editable="true" wordWrap="true" showDataTips="true" textAlign="center"/>
                <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField="product" headerText="MC Pr" textAlign="center" wordWrap="true" width="70">
                </mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn>
            </mx:AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup>
            <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup headerText="Bank side">
                <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField="revenue" headerText="Bank Ref" width="70" editable="true" wordWrap="true"
                    showDataTips="true" textAlign="center"/>
                <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField="cost" headerText="Bank Pr" width="55" editable="true" wordWrap="true" showDataTips="true" textAlign="center"/>
            </mx:AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup>
        </mx:groupedColumns>

Flex Builder 3 Beta 3 Mac OS X Installer Error

I am trying to install Flex Builder 3 Beta 3 on an Intel Mac
running Mac OS X 10.4.11. When I open the installer, the first
screen (which allows you to select languages) works properly. The
second screen, however, does not load properly - I only see a black
background and white text that says "InstallAnywhere by
Macrovision", a thin white line by this, and a grayed-out "N".
There are no buttons or other text on this page.
Does anyone have this same problem? If so, are there any
fixes? I initially had this problem with Mac OS X 10.4.10.
Upgrading to Mac OS X 10.4.11 did not fix the error. A similar
error also occurs when I try to install the demo version of Flex
Builder 2.
Thanks!

Thanks for sending the error log - that provides some good
clues. First of all, I want to ask you about the path listed as
/Users/admin/. Was admin a default user already on your machine, or
did you create and log in as a user named admin?
The installer is failing because it cannot create a folder
under the path /Users/admin/Documents/, whereas usually you should
have full access to that folder if the user named admin has normal
Admin rights.
Here are some suggestions for how you can remedy that:
1) run Apple's Disk Utility, run its Repair Permissions
option, and see if it repairs permissions on that Documents folder
2) manually delete any existing folder named
/Users/admin/Documents/Flex Builder 3/
3) try installing Flex Builder 3 again, after cleaning things
up in steps 1 and 2.
Failing that, try creating a new user on that machine, with
Admin rights, and then see if you can install Flex Builder 3 into
that user account.
Let me know how it goes,
C. Agruss

Flex Builder 3 installation hanging on Mac OS X Leopard

Hi,
Excited to get going with the tutorial. Slightly disappointed by the installation of the Flex Builder 3 on my Mac OS X Leopard installation. I followed all instructions, ensuring that I closed all my open apps beforehand. The installer has been sitting at the "Installing..." stage with the message "Please wait, Abdobe Flex Builder 3 is being configured for your system. This may take a moment...". It's been displaying that for 20 minutes now, so I think it's safe to say it's not going to come back.
Looking around for clues, I can see another windowtitled "Flash Player 9 Silent Installer" which has a 100% blue progress bar below a label "Iterms remaining to be installed: 0"
Recommendations anyone? Am I safe to force quit the installation and retry? All tips welcomed!
Stuart

It sounds like you have (or had... this was a month ago) the same problem as me. My solution is posted here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4052808

Flash builder 4 installation somehow broke my flex builder 3 debuggin/running/profiling launch.

After installing flash builder 4 neither it nor flex builder 3 has been able to launch swf:s from flex. After hitting run or debug flex gives a prompt saying "Flash Player not Found. Flex builder cannot locate the required version of Flash Player. You might need to install Flash Player 9 or reinstall Flex Builder. Do you want to try to run your application with the current version?". The popup itself happened before installing flash builder 4. But normally I would just hit yes and it would use whatever flashplayer is default.
Now if I click yes it launches command prompt with a path to flex builder 3 installation folder. When running from flash builder 4, same happens except the path is the installation folder for flash builder 4. Flex then starts waiting for connection from debugger and after a while it prompts a timeout message. The command prompts title is ...\workspace\project\bin-debug\filename.swf.
When opening the swf files directly from windows they open fine.
I used the uninstaller software for flash player and then fetched both fp9&10 and reinstalled them. Which didn't help. When launching to browser everything works just fine, the problem occurs only when launching to standalone player. I tried to check registry settings if there would be something wrong, but all the paths for flashplayers seem to be ok.
Is there any other hope to fix this than reinstalling flex builder 3 & flash builder 4 from scratch?

You need content debugger FP installed
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html download it from there and install and you should see the problem go away

Bug in the flex builder installer

I found a bug in the Flex builder installer, while someone
tried to install Flex on top of our EasyEclipse eclipse distro.
I am making a post here since I could not find a way to
report a bug anywhere on the Adobe web site :-\
So the bug is that the installer is looking for an eclipse
installation that is packaged exactly like the Eclipse platform,
but also specifically checks for the presence of features named
org.eclipse.rcp and org.eclipse.platform.
Yet the flex features themselves do not care about other
features only about the platform plugins to be present, as it
shoudl be.
It is considered a bad practice by the Eclipse platform team
to have a dependecy on features, and it is recommended to use
instead plugin depdencies.
See
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Version_Numbering#Versioning_features
As a result, Flex cannot be installed anywhere but on a vanilla
Eclipse.
EasyEclipse does not ship the base features of the Eclipse
platform, yet all the Flex plugins dependencies are statisfied.
See our forum for more details:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3982548

Getting back to the original message in this thread, I want
to post an update about what I learned on digging deeper. The Flex
Builder 2.0.1 Plug-in version does not require a vanilla eclipse to
install into, but it does impose some minimal constraints. Before
release, we installed FB 2.0.1 Plug-in successfully with several
customized Eclipse configurations, including RSA7 and BEA, each of
which uses a different folder configuration for its product
extension point.
I took a close look at the dependency list for our FB 2.0.1
features, and these have been plugin-based dependencies all along,
not feature dependencies. I understand why it might appear as if
they're feature-based though, because our installer requires that
the feature named org.eclipse.platform be present.
We have the installer look for that feature, because that's
the way Eclipse's update manager reports what's already installed
and available. Eclipse's commandline API for updates only provides
Feature info, not Plugin info:
http://help.eclipse.org/help32/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/mis c/update_standalone.html
The FB Plug-in installer checks for the existence of
org.eclipse.platform so that we have some assurance that the
version of eclipse proposed is at least version 3.1.2 or higher. In
our next release, we'll explore alternate way of gleaning this same
information, with the intention of allowing plug-in installs into
products such as EasyEclipse that don't include any Eclipse
features in their products.
