I was very impressed with the new components that you made using flex 2. I never realised that there are so much that you can do with flex. I guess the only limitation is your creativity.
I am planning to use flex 2 on a quite large project once it’s released. but one of the requirements i received is that the new system needs to show a monthly based calendar. something like what laszlo < a href=”http://www.laszlosystems.com/lps/sample-apps/calendar/calendar.lzo?lzt=html”>has done.
As a newbie to flex, i have no idea even where to start. Could you give me some hints or could it be one of the components that you might consider to build?
I was trying to compile and see your fabulous component in local and is not working. Do you plan to update the code to work with final release of Flex 2? Hope to hear from you :)
Your fisheye component is so cool, i am trying to use it now in my flex2 app. I am having trouble getting it to compile. I have extracted the qs directory to my source tree, and i am creating the component in action script. Here is my code…
import qs.controls.*;
private var fe:Fisheye = new Fisheye();
————— compile errors —————
FisheyeBase.as(116) col:43
_itemRendererFactory= new ClassFactory(CachedLabel);
i can not find CachedLabel anywhere in the source.
do i need charts? i get another error saying mx.charts.chartClasses.RenderData not found.
Ely – certainly you know your stuff when it comes to Flex and are able to bring out the very best. Hats off! (You’re also a gifted presenter – enjoyed your talk at MAX Barcelona)
What frustrates me is that your components require an incredible insight in Flex’ inner workings, insight that seems hard to acquire. For example, you override functions that are barely documented if documented at all.
1) How are we non-Flex-SDK-team members supposed to know what you know?
2) Would you mind in the future documenting your code a little more and better?
I think it boils down to the insufficient Flex SDK documentation?
Any update by chance on the FishEye (the fixed height/width) ?

I think you still have the beta2 file uploaded in the sample page.

I really dig this app. I Thanks for the inspiration and the code. I’m a newbie to programming, this will be fun to learn from.

Beautiful! I’m a bit of a Flex newcomer, how do I add an event listener to the fisheye list to listen for selections precisely?
I’ve tried doing:
fisheye.addEventListener( “change”, menuSelect );
inside of a “creationComplete” block.. Is this the correct way to do things?
