First, what I’ve found out that namespace mx was change to ns namespace. xmlns:mx=”library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo”
xmlns:ns=”library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx”

some properties was renamed e.g BitmapImage resizeMode to fillMode, some properties was removed.

But I’ve stuck on 1 problem… from flash.* packages, there is just flash.text.*, all other flash.* packages are not inside. So e.g. I can not use MouseEvent and similar stuff

Does anyone know if I don’t see anything obvious? Does anyone use latest stable nightly build of Flex 4? (I’ve tried also latest nightly build Flex 13963, same problem)

I really want to use it, because I know, there is some important things fixed. Please let me know, if you have how to fix problem

Thank you very much

var pp:PerspectiveProjection = new PerspectiveProjection();
pp.fieldOfView = 11;
 
this.transform.perspectiveProjection = pp;

it’s easy and it works. But problem is, that after setting of perspectiveProjection all children interactivity (mouse click, rollovers and rollouts) stops working and this is really big issue. I’ve tried everything I know to prevent this, but I could not make it work. So I’m trying to write this post to get help on this (if it is possible).

Let me know if you have similar problem and please vote for Adobe bug(s) I will post later to let Adobe fix it ASAP.

Some links with this issue on net:

• http://old.nabble.com/Setting-perspectiveProjection-disable-children-interactivity-td21207809.html
• https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-2445
• https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-1609 This is even marked as resolved by Adobe

Let me know if comments if you know anything about this problem. Thank you

1. Wordpress plugin Permalinks Changer

When you want to change your permalinks structure in Wordpress,there is easy way if your are Wordpress semi-advance user. But there are also Wordpress Newbies, which want to change Wordpress permalinks structure as well. I’ve created small wordpress plugin called Permalinks Changer, which helps you to change you permalinks structure in more friendly way. This was implemented as help to one of my friend in some private interner marketer forum. Now there are just 3 simple possibilities of permalinks structure:

• use your post name in URLs
• use category and post name in URLs
• reset to default permalinks structure

If you have any idea how to make life easier for Wordpress newbies, please leave a comment with your suggestion.

1. Problem with XML attributes in AS3.0
2. Unable to export SWC oem
3. Numeric sorting of Flex DataGridColumn

This is quick example for Numeric sorting of Flex DataGrid columns. If you want to sort column in DataGrid, default sorting is sorted by String and not by Number. If you have just one numeric column, you may create custom sort function and set sortCompareFunction for given DataGridColumn. If you have more such columns and your dataProvider is ArrayCollection, which consists of many objects, better solution is override DataGridColumn and implement compare function inside this class. Here is class

package com.flexets.components.dataGridClasses
{
	import mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn;
	import mx.utils.ObjectUtil;
 
	public class NumericDataGridColumn extends DataGridColumn
	{
		public static const NUMERIC:String = "N";
		public function NumericDataGridColumn(columnName:String=null)
		{
			super(columnName);
			initCompare(NUMERIC);
		}
 
		function initCompare(numeric:Object):void
		{
			if (numeric == NUMERIC) {
				sortCompareFunction = numericCompare;
			}
		}
 
		/**
		* Pull the numbers from the objects and call the implementation. TAKEN FROM mx.collections.SortField
		*/
		private function numericCompare(a:Object, b:Object):int
		{
			var fa:Number;
			try
			{
				fa = dataField == null ? Number(a) : Number(a[dataField]);
			}
			catch(error:Error)
			{
			}
 
			var fb:Number;
			try
			{
				fb = dataField == null ? Number(b) : Number(b[dataField]);
			}
			catch(error:Error)
			{
			}
 
			return ObjectUtil.numericCompare(fa, fb);
		}
	}
}

and then just use NumericDataGridColumn in your mxml in DataGrid like this

<mx:DataGrid id="myDG" width="100%" height="100%" dataProvider="{myDataProvider}">
    <mx:columns>
	<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="id"/>
	<dataGridClasses:NumericDataGridColumn dataField="order"/>
	<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="title"/>
	<dataGridClasses:NumericDataGridColumn dataField="price"/>
    </mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>

So if you have same problems and you have site based on Wordpress, check in your Admin section Settings > Privacy or check html source code for robots meta tag in header.

After this discovery yesterday I’ve found out that even franto.com has same settings and it’s not indexed by google from time I’ve changed hosting provider few months ago. So I have rather changed all my other sites and they are all ok I think I need to create some AIR app for checking such SEO problems…
