TabNavigator question

I have a tabnavigator that I'm unable to set the background color for the tabs within my style (backgroundColor: black;). I can set the font size and color, just can't set the background color. Does the tabnavigator somehow use its parent colors for the background color?

BackgroundColor isn't an inheriting style. Did you set it in the
firstTabStyleName, tabStyleName, lastTabStyleName declarations?

Code Structure / Component Question

I'm new to Flex and trying to learn as much as I can on my own without help, but I've run into a question that I'm not finding an answer for.
I've read about creating MXML components and understand that, as well as creating AS classes, that that makes sense too.
I have code in the default package which displays the Datagrid component (MXML) but also has ActionScript code in the same source file to load the datagrid via PHP (HTTPService) as well as define what happens when cells are updated (sending data back to update the DB via PHP).
This is all pretty much a self-contained "component" for manipulating data from a particular MySLQ table from this single datagrid. I have the grid displayed on one tab of the tab navigator.
My problem is that I'd like to create a similar datagrid on a separate tab which does the same thing for a different table. I know this code needs to be separated and not in one MXML file, but I'm not finding how to either structure my project to do this, or else make each datagrid (along with the associated AS code) into a separate component.
Would appreciate any help or examples you may have.
Thanks,
Gary

Thanks for pointing me in this direction -- I had started that way, but got confused. Here are the first few lines of my current code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
 width="998" height="656" creationComplete="init()" layout="absolute">
 <mx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 import mx.controls.Alert;
 import mx.events.PropertyChangeEvent;
 import mx.events.CollectionEventKind;
 import mx.events.CollectionEvent;
 import mx.events.DataGridEvent;
 import mx.controls.TextInput;
 import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
 import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
 import com.adobe.serialization.json.JSON;
 import com.adobe.viewsource.ViewSource;
 [Bindable]
 private var callbackUrl:String;
Naturally, my datagrid tag is dozens of lines below this:
<mx:TabNavigator x="23" y="10" width="831" height="506">
<mx:Canvas width="100%" height="100%" label="Learners">
<mx:DataGrid id="dgData"
x="27"
y="19"
width="778"
Can you show me a quick example of how I'd put this together with the top tag as you described?
Thanks again,
Gary

Style not applied to tab in TabNavigator?

Hi
 Here is the sample app
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
 layout="absolute" width="100%">
 <mx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 import mx.containers.Panel;
 public var count:Number =0;
 public function addTab():void{
 var pan:Panel = new Panel();
 pan.name="Tab " + count;
 theNav.addChild(pan);
 count++;
 public function removeTab():void{
 var childNum:Number = theNav.getChildren().length;
 if(childNum>0){
 theNav.removeChildAt(childNum-1);
 ]]>
 </mx:Script>
 <mx:Button label="Add Tab" click="addTab()" x="24" y="26"/> <mx:Button label="Remove Tabs" click="removeTab()" x="104" y="26"/>
 <mx:TabNavigator id="theNav" x="36" y="76" width="100%">
 </mx:TabNavigator>
</mx:Application>
Try adding a tab and then removing it using the buttons provided. Then again add a tab by clicking the button. Notice that the tab bar does not show the style of the one and only tab as selected. Is this a known issue?..
Thanks
Dharmesh

Sorry, just answered my own question. The previous editor had applied a separate character style on top of the paragraph style.
Don't know why, it doesn't serve any purpose except to confuse...
Fell for it!

TabNavigator tab selection event

I've been trying to trigger an event when i click on the tab in a tabnavigator.
The problem is that if i try to use the "change" event, the events for components inside the tab navigator are being fired and thats causing me problems. Could you suggest an alternative to "change" with a specific event that would enable me to fire a specific function only when i click on the tabs?
I know the question is trivial but I couldnt find an answer anywhere.
Thanks in advance

TabNavigator: Adding Tab Dynamic

Hi,
I would like to create an application that is using a
TabNavigator to show different information (tabs) when user press
different buttons. I create a button and call a function to add a
tab into tabnavigator to show a custom control (base on Panel). I
try it and the program can add the tab and show the correct
information. But I don't know how to add the label on the created
tab. Also, can it be any simple method to check it the information
is shown already in tabnavigator?
The function is listed below:
private function addUserRequest():void {
var ur:DisplayObject = tabControl.addChild(new userRequest);
var tabNdx:int; // Tab Index
tabNdx = tabControl.getChildIndex(ur);
tabControl.selectedIndex = tabControl.getChildIndex(ur);
return;
//end of function
Thanks a lot!
Wilson

If
UserRequest is a custom component which extends
Panel, the label of the panel will be used as the label of
the tab when it's added to the
TabNavigator.
In order to do this you'll need to define
ur as a compatible type which has a label property, i.e. as
a
Panel or as a
UserRequest (or whatever it's called):
var ur:Panel = new UserRequest(); // UserRequest is subclass
of Panel so compatible.
ur.label = "A Label"; // I can set this because I am a panel
tabControl.addChild(ur);
I'm not sure I understand your last question. Do you want to
know if the tab with that label already exists?

Tabnavigator problems

Hi all, I have a Tabnavigator with 5 tabs, each of which has charts of one sort or another. Since migrating to FB4 I get a problem where if the contents of one tab change, suddenly the content of all of them is displayed at the same time which looks absolutely awful. By clicking on each of the tabs the problem is gradually removed. I saw someone else reported this problem on stackoverflow.com:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4638300/tabnavigator-tab-content-retains-strangely-flas hbuilder-4

Just started getting this problem again with Flash 11.2. I have this in Firefox (debug version) :
Version: 11.2.202.228
and this in IE8: (not debug version)
11.2.202.233
Has anybody got any ideas on how to resolve it?

Tabnavigator mouse over event

Hi Guys,
I'm new to Flex and have a dumb question.
How do I get some text to display in a text area (in a
separate panel) when I mouse over a tab in a Tabnavigator
component?
Can anyone help me?

I write the code addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, outEventHandler); in the overEventHandler
The problem is the event will be trigger ceaselessly.
Can I send you the flv file? Please help me to solve this trouble.

Set a style on an inactive tab of TabNavigator

Hi,
For a chat application, I have a TabNavigator with one person
by tab.
When a person speak, I want to change the color of this
specified tab.
Currently, I can change the properties "backgroundColor" on
the tab, but this don't works until we set the focus on this tab.
quote:
// tabs is my TabNavigator
var childIndex:int = tabs.getChildIndex(
tabs.getChildByName("theSpecificUserTab"));
var tabButton:Button = tabs.getTabAt( childIndex );
tabButton.setStyle("backgroundColor", "#FF6600");
I suppose my way only changing the styles of the button when
this button is active.
But the goal is to change the style even if the tab isn't
active...
Is it possible ?
Thanks a lots

Is it impossible or my question is not understand ?
Thanks

Load speed: FLEX MX:TABNAVIGATOR LOAD SPEED VERSUS SPARK:TABBAR

TODAY I NOTICED A LARGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
THE OLDER MX:TABNAVIGATOR
AND NEWER S:TABBAR (SPARK)
Summary:
My test application was built in flex builder 4 and I was using my localhost (asp.net devlepment enviroment) for testing.
Tests I built:
I built many proofs for concept using flex objects, ui and data handlers.
HOW WAS THIS TEST (which I spoke about in the title) CREATED:
I built two components which will be used as CHILDREN to the main application. The fist child component used the SPARK TABBAR and the other child component used the MX:TABNAVIGATOR. The main application declared these children (using action script) initially and a List control actually loaded the children into the main application.
BOTH CHILD COMPPONENTS had 10 tabs....
5 of the 10 tabs contained "grand" child components (none of the components(main application/children/grandchildren) worked with external data)
RESULTS:
THE LOAD SPEED BETWEEN THE TWO CONTROLS was very noticable between the two controls.
THE SPARK COMPONENT (S:tabbar) AVERAGED 3-5 SECONDS TO LOAD
WHERE THE MX:TABNAVIGATOR ONLY TOOK 1-2 SECONDS
HAS ANYBODY ELSE EXPERIENCED THE SAME RESULTS?

It definately seems to fit (pretty good).
My labels in the "TABS" were of different length.

THIS APPEARS TO HAVE THE SAME LOAD TIME as the TabNavigator.
So I have to ask:
What is a permanent fix for this.
Where I can I update my current "Build" for FLEX 4
so my application does not retain this bug.
OR ANOTHER QUESTION...what can I exclude in my declarations to fix this bug.
I would prefer to use the Spark TabBar over the mx:tabnavigator
MY CURRENT "BUILD" is 4.0.1.277662

Don't want TabNavigator to scroll first index

Hi all,
I'm a new with Flex so my question may be idiot.
I use Super TabNavigator and the horizontal scrolling. I would like to scroll all tabs except the first one. Is it possible ?
I imagined to put this first tab out of the TabNavigation and make it look like it was a regular tab, so when you click on it it looks like an activated tab. But I'm not able to disable all other tabs when I do this and it's look like I've got two activated tabs.
Any ideas about how can I do this ?
Thx

If you don't want them to have access to the same books and other purchased media, they would need to be signed into a different Apple ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store. If you don't want them to see the same iCloud email, they would need to be signed into different iCloud accounts with different IDs, or have Mail turned off on one of them in Settings>iCloud. If you want to migrate one of them to a different iCloud account to accomplish this, reply back and I'll explain how to do this.

Selecting View States and TabNavigator Canvases

Hello all Flex fans...
I have two questions for somebody who has done this before.
It will take a bit of explaining so bear with me.
I have a datagrid called "selClaimant" as the starting point
of my application. When I select something from the selClaimant
datagrid I change view states to a view called "ClaimView". In the
ClaimView state I have a TabNavigator control with several canvases
called "Claimant" and "Claims" and several others.
My first question is when I select something from the
selClaimant datagrid how do I ensure that the Claimant canvas is
displayed in the TabNavigator and not the Claims canvas???
My second question is similar to the first but with a twist.
First off the Claims canvas also has two view states (call them
"ViewOne" and "ViewMany"). ViewOne has a datagrid control called
selClaim that allows me to select a claim that has been filed by
the claimant. ViewMany allows me to see all the details about the
selected claim. When I select a claimant from the selClaimant
datagrid I query the database to see how many claims that the
selected claimant has filed. If there has only been one claim filed
I want the starting state to be the ViewMany canvas when the user
clicks on the Claims TabNavigator. If there is more than one claim
in the database then I want the ViewOne to be displayed so I can
select which claim I want the detail on.
I store the number of claims in an array so I can use the
array length to see if I have one or more claims but I am not sure
how to logically force my view state and canvas state.
Thanks in advance to the guru that helps me with this one!!!

Question one is answered... put this into the action script
that handles the datagrid selected event.
claimantTabNav.selectedIndex = 0;
claimantTabNavigator is the ID of the tabnavigator whose
canvas I want selected. 0 is the first tab in the navigator. Good
thing I grew up on UNIX and can still remember how to count
starting with a 0 instead of a 1. :)

Questions on Print Quote report

Hi,
I'm fairly new to Oracle Quoting and trying to get familiar with it. I have a few questions and would appreciate if anyone answers them
1) We have a requirement to customize the Print Quote report. I searched these forums and found that this report can be defined either as a XML Publisher report or an Oracle Reports report depending on a profile option. Can you please let me know what the name of the profile option is?
2) When I select the 'Print Quote' option from the Actions drop down in the quoting page and click Submit I get the report printed and see the following URL in my browser.
http://<host>:<port>/dev60cgi/rwcgi60?PROJ03_APPS+report=/proj3/app/appltop/aso/11.5.0/reports/US/ASOPQTEL.rdf+DESTYPE=CACHE+P_TCK_ID=23731428+P_EXECUTABLE=N+P_SHOW_CHARGES=N+P_SHOW_CATG_TOT=N+P_SHOW_PRICE_ADJ=Y+P_SESSION_ID=c-RAuP8LOvdnv30grRzKqUQs:S+P_SHOW_HDR_ATTACH=N+P_SHOW_LINE_ATTACH=N+P_SHOW_HDR_SALESUPP=N+P_SHOW_LN_SALESUPP=N+TOLERANCE=0+DESFORMAT=RTF+DESNAME=Quote.rtf
Does it mean that the profile in our case is set to call the rdf since it has reference to ASOPQTEL.rdf in the above url?
3) When you click on submit button do we have something like this in the jsp code: On click call ASOPQTEL.rdf. Is the report called using a concurrent program? I want to know how the report is getting invoked?
4) If we want to customize the jsp pages can you please let me know the steps involved in making the customizations and testing them.
Thanks and Appreciate your patience

Yes, your understanding is correct.3) When you click on submit button do we have something like this in the jsp code: On click call ASOPQTEL.rdf. Is the report called using a concurrent program? I want to know how the report is getting invoked?
No, there is no conc program getting called, you can directly call a report in a browser window, Oracle reports server will execute the report and send the HTTP response to the browser.4) If we want to customize the jsp pages can you please let me know the steps involved in making the customizations and testing them.
This is detailed in many threads.Thanks

Satellite P300D-10v - Question about warranty

HI EVERYBODY
I have these overheating problems with my laptop Satellite P300D-10v.
I did everything I could do to fix it without any success..
I get the latest update of the bios from Toshiba. I cleaned my lap with compressed air first and then disassembled it all and cleaned it better.(it was really clean insight though...)
BUT unfortunately the problem still exists...
So i made a research on the internet and I found out that most of Toshiba owners have the same exactly problem with their laptop.
Well i guess this is a Toshiba bug for many years now.
Its a really nice lap, cool sound (the best in laptop ever) BUT......
So I wanted to make a question. As i am still under warranty, can i return this laptop and get my money back or change it with a different one????
If any body knows PLS let me know.
chears
Thanks in advance

Hi
I have already found you other threads.
Regarding the warranty question;
If there is something wrong with the hardware then the ASP in your country should be able to help you.
The warranty should cover every reparation or replacement.
But I read that you have disasembled the laptop at your own hand... hmmm if you have disasembled the notebook then your warrany is not valid anymore :(
I think this should be clear for you that you can lose the warrany if you disasemble the laptop!
By the way: you have to speak with the notebook dealer where you have purchased this notebook if you want to return the notebook
The Toshiba ASP can repair and fix the notebook but you will not get money from ASP.

Anyone know how to remove Overdrive books from my iphone that have been transferred from my computer? They do not show up on itunes. I see a lot of answers to this question but they all are based on being able to see the books in iTunes.

How do I remove Overdrive books from the library that were downloaded onto my computer then transferred to my iphone? The problem is that they do not show up in iTunes.
I see this question asked a lot when I google, but they always give answers that assumes you can find the books in iTunes either under the books tab, or the audio books tab or in the music. They do not show up anywhere for me. They do not remove from the app like the ones I downloaded directly onto my iphone.the related archived article does not answer it either. I even asked a guy working at an apple store and he could not help either. Anybody...?
Thanks!

there is an app called daisydisk on mac app store which will help you see exactly where the memory is focused and consumed try using that app and see which folders are using more memory
