- Flex 3 - How can I make links inside a TextArea?
I was working on a project the other day that required me to take user input and parse out the links to make them clickable. For this particular project, I needed to create this as a method for my data class. I’ve stripped out the code for just the url parsing and made it just [...] - Augmented Reality comes to flash with FLARToolKit
Things like this is why I started programming, it is the endless possibilities and the fact that we can now merge the reality with virtality. While the idea of augmented reality has been around for a while, it is not until recently that we could really start working with it at a personal level. I’ve [...] - Flex 3 - Databinding

Example: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ [...] - Flex 3 - How do I make an image behave as a button?
I’ve seen this asked around quite often and as simple as it is I guess there isn’t much info on it, so here is a quick and simple way to achieve this. This can be applied to most UI components. The key is to set these 3 properties: useHandCursor=”true” buttonMode=”true” mouseChildren=”false” You can also add rollovers if [...] - Get them hooked early…

Adobe code name: Thermo Since the start of our developing days, whether creating a website or application there has always been a gap between designers and developers. The back and forth can go on for awhile before the designer’s desired outcome is reached. This week in Chicago Adobe was holding their MAX conference where they showed [...]
