I’ve written a few posts about the AdvancedDataGrid, including one where you can show a Tree inside of it. I’ve never written a post about the iconFunction though, so I thought it would be a good idea to do that. This post described how you can use a Tree in an AdvancedDataGrid where the Tree Node icons are dependant of XML node name and other data in the XML element.

This post is not an example, but a showcase! As you’ve seen, we have been creating WordPress Plugins in Flex for a while now, which you can download for free.
While creating these plugins, we have learned that Flex and WordPress are a powerful combination, which we should use more often. A while ago, I was looking at our website, and saw our comment form, which was not really impressing me. So I started creating one in Flex.

AIR applications that doesn’t need to store data on your computer are extremely rare. That is why I have created a basic application that should help you understand and learn how you can store data in SQLite database. The example is really basic but it should get you an idea on how to do it.

One of the additional controls you get from the AIR runtime is the HTML control. The purpose of this control is very straightforward: show webpages or other HTML content, using it for that single purpose is straightforward and easy, but you can do some more advanced stuff to, for example filling in a form and simulating button clicks from actionscript.

I guess it is well known information already, but since I’ve been only playing around with the new Flash Builder 4 environment for a while I still wanted to post something about the this subject. The Repeater, not just a regular pain in the ass. Flex 4 brings us the DataGroup.

While I was developing in the new Flash Builder 4 / Flex 4 environment yesterday, I tried to use the baseColor property on the s:Application tag to give it a default color, just like I explained in this example. I noticed however, that Flash Builder gave an error that it didn’t recognize the baseColor property…

A while ago, Adobe announced that Flash player 10.1 was coming to Google’s mobile OS Android. I was very happy at the moment: finally I could start building some nice mobile apps using Flex and AIR. A couple of weeks later however, Adobe said that they were not going to support “old devices” like my HTC Hero that’s only 6 months old now for performance reasons. So essentially, i’m fucked and need to buy a new phone again if I want to do some mobile development. Even if you just purchased the new HTC Legend…start crying right now, break your piggy bank and return to the store to buy a new phone: it won’t support Flash 10.1 and AIR.
