Here’s a small enhancement to my trick to copy data from an AdvancedDataGrid.

Here’s a small trick to allow copying individual cell data from a Flex AdvancedDataGrid.

I just added a new page called Libagic, from which you can:

• Read the documentation (ASDoc format)
• Read and download source code
• Download the Libagic.swc

for all classes and custom Flex components published on Blogagic.com.

Enjoy!

I recently published Flex custom components allowing to display data as Sparklines. These SparklineChart custom components being highly configurable, here is now their new companion: the SparklineChart explorer.

Sparklines are defined by Edward Tufte, their creator as: Intense, Simple, Word-Sized Graphics.

Here are new Flex custom components allowing to easily integrate Sparklines in any Flex application.

Here are some tips regarding my way of managing Dynamic Flex ToolTips and, in particular, how to update content of a visible tooltip.

After my custom components FadingTextInput and FadingInjector, here is now a Flex custom effect offering similar possibilities. I called it EditInPlaceEffect.

Apply the fading background color effect available in my Flex FadingTextInput in any UIComponent by injecting it using FadingInjector (post updated following a comment from João).

FadingTextInput is a Flex custom component based on TextInput that provides a background color fading effect when its content is modified.

I recently faced a Flex Error 1000: Ambiguous Reference to that puzzled me, I thought I’d share what was the issue and how to workaround it.

This error was raised by the compiler when I attempted to use a property for which I had defined a public getter together with a protected setter.

Using public::myProperty or protected::myProperty fixed the problem!
