Sometimes the Flex Builder design window crashes

Sometimes the Flex Builder design window crashes in that when
you click on components, you don't see the usual outline transform
box out side the component you clicked on. Also things like the
toggle button bar doesn't switch the viewstack. I have no errors or
warnings in the problems windows.
Any ways round this?

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

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.

Flex Builder in Windows 7

Hi, when I'm trying to install Flex Builder 3.0.2 in my Windows 7, I'm getting the following message: "Please, select another location to extract the installer to". All of the locations I tried didn't work. Did anybody get this situation? Thanks.

Sorry, I'm trying to install Eclipse Plugin and not the Flex Builder.

Osmf sample with flex builder-design puzzle

Good Day,everyone!
It is my first time here.^_^
My puzzle:
I'm going to modify the design stytle of the OSMF example code with the flex builder 3,
but the former design frame cann't be viewed with the "design" tools. The warning indicates that
"Design mode:cann't load MediaPlayer.swc(reason:Error:Load Verify).It may require classes(such as Adobe AIR components)that are not supported by design mode."
I have checked everyting I can, and attampted so many ways,but it doesn't work.
Expecting for your suggestion!
Thanks a lot!
Good Luck！
xiaohui

Thanks for your immediate responding!
I have focused on the DynamicStreamingSample.
I am using the osmf_source_6.
My Flex Builder version is the latest, and the sdk is 3.4.
When I imported the project, I have recompiled the MediaFramework and MediaPlayer project. Meantime, I added the new .swc file in
the BuildPath. Is everything all right?
Excuse me?When I unzip the zip file of the source, I find the MediaFramework.swc in the directory the same as other directores such as
apps,docs,frame and so on.
Why is the MediaFramework.swc file here? Is it different from the .swc which is compiled with the MediaFramework project?
Expecting for your news!
Good day!

Today at GamePC, we're taking a look at the latest build of Windows XP 64-bit Edition, along with performance testing with AMD's Opteron and Intel's "Nocona" Xeon CPU's to see how the OS is shaping up. We're also comparing performance between today's Windows XP w/ SP2 (32-bit) against the upcoming Windows XP Professional X64 Edition release.

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.

Getting the Flex Builder Plugin for Eclipse

I may be a dope, but I can't tell you how long it took me to
find the download for the Flex Builder plugin for an existing
install of Eclipse. If you're looking for the plugin, go to the
last line of the FlexBuilder standalone download page--and then, in
the last line, you will see a link buried in the line--click on
that, and you will get the download. Adobe, this is really, really
stupid way to organize your downloads.

Ha, I'm not alone ;)
Thanks for pointing it out. It might seem obvious once you
notice the link, but I totally missed it.
The Adobe flex builder rips off numerous useful features that
eclipse offers, such as the ability to search all files, and it is
very inconvenient.

Is the Flex Builder Eclipse Plugin Free?

I posted this quesiton in Flex Builder 2 forum but I thought
maybe it's a bit more appropriate here. If not I apologize.
I'm a total beginner to Flex and Eclipse but I'm just curious
if the Flex Builder Eclipse Plugin is free or do I still need to
purchase the $499 license in order to use it? I'm trying to figure
out what I'm going to use to build my Flex apps and I'd like a nice
IDE like Dreamweaver or CFEclipse with the nice prompts and other
features but $499 is quite steep just to get my feet wet.

Jason,
Yes you still need to purchase - you can install the product
as a full install, or as an eclipse plug in. Trying the 30 day
trial for getting your feet wet is the only option currently. Take
advantage of free training from total training:

How to deactivate the flex builder licence from one machine and use it on other machine

Hi,
I have a "Flex builder 3" licence running on my machine.
I have to deactivate that and use it on another machine.
How should I do that? As there is no otpion in flex builder.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Tushar

What happens when you just install Flex Builder on the other machine and enter the serial number? I was not aware of Flex Builder having a mechanism that tracks activations like the Creative Suite products.
If this post answers your question or helps, please mark it as such.
