Text reversed (mirrored) in menus, lists & popups

Hi there
I've just installed the latest trial version of FlashBuilder with the Flex SDK 4.1.
After compiling and running my project all my popups (TitleWindow + Alerts) are reversed and the text inside them is reversed. Also all the text in my menus are reversed. By reversed I mean that it looks as if one is looking at them in a mirror.
Why on earth would this be happeining?
Cheers
Tracy

This is happening because the biggest change in Flex 4.1 is the ability for layout mirroring.
"Layout mirroring refers how containers and controls are drawn on the screen. The default direction is LTR. You can change any container or control that implements IVisualElement to lay out from right to left by setting the layoutDirection style property to "rtl"."
I experienced the same problem as you..however it went away and I'm still not sure what I did to make it work all of a sudden.. but I'm very curious also

How to set "Display as Text" field with AJAX select list

thanks Denes for your posting. I'm trying to use the Denes Kubicek code to populate a "Display as Text" field. It works for Text Field (disabled), but not "Display as Text" field(saves state) . In my applciation I need to show this field only (not the disabled text box) when a select list value is changed. any ideas to modify the code below are appreciated.
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:80:3418128396960418::NO
here is the code from the url above
1. Create an Application Process - getDet:
DECLARE
my_det VARCHAR2 (200);
BEGIN
SELECT ename || CHR(10) || job || CHR(10) || mgr
INTO my_det
FROM emp
WHERE empno = :P80_EMPLOYEES;
HTP.prn (my_det);
END;
2. Put the following in the Region Header of your page:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function f_getDet ()
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,&APP_ID.,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=getDet',0);
get.add('P80_EMPLOYEES',html_GetElement('P80_EMPLOYEES').value)
gReturn = get.get();
if(gReturn)
{ html_GetElement('P80_DETAILS').value = gReturn }
else
{ html_GetElement('P80_DETAILS').value = 'null' }
get = null;
</script>
3. Put the following in the HTML Form Element Attributes of :P80_EMPLOYEES:
onChange="f_getDet()";

Arie,
this works fine on normal page, except page zero. I have the AJAX select list and "Display as Text" field on page zero. The "Display as Text" field doesn't show the the value when AJAX select is changed. I'm using similar code as used in my other APEX page on OTN site. I tired to display the gReturn value, just before calling "setDisplayOnlyNode" function in the code below and it's showing correct value, but fails to display the value in the APEX field on page zero. Any ideas are appreciated.
Thanks,
Surya
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function setDisplayOnlyNode(pItem, pValue)
{ var textNode = pItem + '_DISPLAY'; $x(textNode).innerText = pValue; }
function f_getDet ()
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,&APP_ID.,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=getDet',0);
get.add('P1_EMPLOYEES',html_GetElement('P1_EMPLOYEES').value)
gReturn = get.get();
if(gReturn)
{ setDisplayOnlyNode('P1_DETAILS',gReturn)}
{ html_GetElement('P1_TEST').value = gReturn }
get = null;
</script>

Hiding Hit list popup and getting multiple values in Search help

Hi,
I have a special requirement where I am using a search help for filtering data. My requiremetn is the data which I am getting in Hit list popup, I want all that data in a internal table for further processing also I dont want that hit list popup. Is there any method or something which can be used in search help exit to hide the hit list popup dialog and returning all the records which is fetchec in the record_tab.
Thanks
Tanmaya

Hi,
I dont think you can make thru search help. Instead, I can advise you:
Instead of using a search help for multiple selection, have a button placed at the table control, so that once you press that, you get the desired values(just as in SH) in an ALV display. Then you can make multiple selection and call the table control again and pass the values to the internal table used for the table control, so that the table is filled with the desired values.
Hope this helps you.

Rich text data type for external list

Hi,
I need to create an external list with one column as rich text type where they can highlight the text and all.
How this can be done, since with external lists the column is rendered as single line of text?

Hi,
External content types are made up of fields whose types are a subset of the primitive types of .NET. For each such .NET type, a rudimentary mapping to SharePoint’s field controls exists, describing a field’s visual appearance. Fields of type string for
instance will, on the new and edit forms, render as a single-line text field. With regular lists, using the browser interface, you can easily turn a string field into a multi-line text area or a Rich Text field, but not so with external lists. At least not
unless your forms are InfoPath-based.
Please take a look at these resources:
Evaluating Business Connectivity Services in SharePoint 2010 for web service, read/write use
Customizing the External list
Multi line text box in External List edit form

Do swing components work in sub-menus of popup menus??

I want to have a JSlider as a component of a sub-menu of a pop-up menu. it shows up but acts very strangely. If I grab the slider handle and drag, nothing happens. If I click to one side of the handle, the slider makes single steps repeatedly until it catches up with the position i click on.
On the other hand, if I add a JSlider to a top-level pop-up menu, it works just fine.
are swing components supposed to work in sub-menus of popup menus??
i'm running java 1.5 on Windows XP.
Thanks, - Conal

The music store is part of iTunes. That is why they are together on the menu. As many topics would offer the same advice for music in your library or music in the store, grouping them together makes sense in terms of reducing redundant entries.
Sorry you found it confusing. I, too, once found some things Apple a bit different. That was about two years ago when I bought my iBook. StarDeb is another recent switcher. And I feel confident in saying this: either of us would be more than happy to help you with anything that gets "lost in translation". We both know there is a learning curve when you move from the XP world to a more fruit-based view of things

Template Text Appears Reversed "Mirrored" After Burning

Greetings, I am using DVD Studio Pro 3.02 with Final cut 4.5
I have imported my Video asset with Markers created in Final cut, into DVD Studio, I drag the asset to the menu stage, and am asked to build a menu index I pick a template with the right amount of buttons, edit the text on the buttons for proper spelling an capitlization... Hit the preview button, all looks great... I burn a DVD, it pops out, pop it into a P.C. or apple and all the text is reveresed, backwords, DVD plays fine. What is up?
Sam

It is a known bug with an incompatible graphics card in some [older] Macs. If you change your preferences to 'software encoding' instead of 'hardware encoding' in DVD SP, the problem should go away.
Also have a search of previous threads for "backwards" et c. for more detail.

Menus : Lists ot tabs

Hello,
I am looking for a way how to do the menus of my application. After reading some thread in the forums and some dicumentation, I have questions :
- What are the advantages of using tabs vs lists ?
- can I use PL/SQL to define the menu options (texts) programmatically rather than making static assignments with the Application Builder.
Any help is welcome.
Marie.

Hello,
- What are the advantages of using tabs vs lists ?I like using lists instead of tabs for 2 reasons.
1: It is a seperate template from the page template which give me slightly greater control of the layout and makes maintence easier.
2: I find the tab control interface slightly cumbersome where as creating and maintaing lists is straight forward. But creating parent/child tabs is more difficult using lists but I usually only use one level tabs anyway.
- can I use PL/SQL to define the menu options (texts)
programmatically rather than making static
assignments with the Application Builder.Or just use substitution tags.

Reading text file to make a list

Hello ,
I want to read a specific column from the text file if the columns are separated by a space.
When the whole file (as shown here http://imageshack.com/a/img834/6321/k55hx.jpg
) is read its column1 names should be visible in a drop list and whenever a name is selected from the list it should select its respective value from column2 in the text file and display the value in indicator.
I tried as shown here(http://imageshack.com/a/img829/6821/x4h0.jpg ) and got the output like this(http://imageshack.com/a/img840/1431/ior7.jpg ) but I am unable to get the required.
Can someone help me out with this.
Thanks.

Hi stefan57.
If I understand you correctly, you are trying to make a dropdown list with the values from the first coloum, and when the user changes this values, you want the data to be shown.
I have made a small exampled that demostrates how this can be done.
(please note, that this code should be further improved, eg. by implementing proper error handling)

Why aren't my contacts showing up in text messages or the call list?

I sync my iphone only with my exchange contacts. It was workng fine until yesterday. My contacts list show up in the contacts app with the correct names, but the text messages and missed calls/voicemail list only shows numbers... not showing contact name. What can I do?

I am having the same issue and it all started after the update I downloaded last night. I have tried calling *288 VRZ support option and afterwars performed a soft boot with no fix. The +1 for USA option is not one I can even imagine doing with over 2000 contacts... There has got to be an easier solution...???

Text buttons in a data list?

Is it possible to create a series of text links in a datalist? If not explicitly in the UI, can this even be emulated by creating text buttons and attaching them to the datalist?
In either case, I'm not able to achieve this. For example, when I create a text button and add it as an item to be included in the repeating objects, the editable text column in the datalist disappears (which I suppose I can understand) but the end result is a repeated button whose label is exactly the same every time it's repeated. In other words, when I change the text of one, all of them change.
I'm trying to create a data list where different headlines are hyperlinks with hover states. This seems rudimentary... I must be missing something?

It's not yet possible to draw links from a data collection using the Catalyst UI. The closest solution I was able to come up with for Fc is to set a "Go to URL" interaction on items in a list, so:
Select your list, then
Add interaction > On Select > Go to URL > Enter your url > When a specific item is selected > then chose the corresponding item #.
Of course, that solution is better for fixed content or prototyping. For full data binding and support of dynamic sources, Flash Builder is the best solution.
