DYNATILEGRID

Hi guys, thank you for the comments.

@nfilg: Yes, go for it! Additionally you can easily skin the checkboxes and radio buttons (by using the flash drawing tools).

The only thing I see you will have to do is change the “checked” property of the checkboxes. For convenience I made an array of checkboxes so you can easily iterate all of them unckeking or checking.

If you did not got how to do this, I can update the documentation including a sample of this implementation.

Thank you.

Hi rayzdabar,

It natively supports images and SWF files, not videos. At time I am developing a FLV player component (because I have none yet) an as soon as possible I could integrat it with DynaTilegrid, but if you already have a FLV player component you can edit the previewer item renderer to support this functionality.

Hi shadow,

What is the complete version of your player (including the revision number)?

Goto this page http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/about/

The version needed is 9.0.115.0.

I uploaded the preview again to do not ask for install to 9.0.0.0 and newer versions. It was the number 12 in queue.

Hope you can see it soon.

Thank you.

Hi kengreenwood, I’ve noticed this bug yesterday and already sent the fix to FlashDen. It was number 16 in the queue. I’m waiting.

Thank you.

Hi Idroj,

This file goal is to be a generic tile fashion images viewer. So it gives you the opportunity to customize the item renderers (as you can see in the documentation).

So, the XML file has a simple structure like this:

<rootnode>
    <item>
        <category>1</category>
        <title>Abstract 1</title>
        <price>15.75</price>
        <description>Some Abstract 1 description.</description>
        <thumb>3dabstract/thumbs/01.jpg</thumb>
        <preview>3dabstract/01.jpg</pre>

But, maybe the price it is not important to you, so you create a alternate XML structure, for example:

<pre>
<rootnode>
    <item>
        <category>1</category>
        <title>Abstract 1</title>
        <description>Some Abstract 1 description.</description>
        <thumb>3dabstract/thumbs/01.jpg</thumb>
        <preview>3dabstract/01.jpg</pre>

This modification will cause you to update the XML parser too (in the .fla) and also the item renderer (just open the item renderer movie clip and delete the price text field at stage).

It is important to know that, the category info, such as the label, I manually add on the *.fla* file (I also uploaded the *.fla* file). Additionaly I made the CheckBox and RadioButton classes that will help to determine if a checkbox is checked or not.

Other point is that you have the compareFunction, that determines if a item will be displayed or not. This function you can customize too.

It looks like that:

<pre>
function someMethodName( sourcebject ):Boolean {
    //logic to see if this object
}
</pre>

Where the source is the XML node and the return value of the method determines if that object will be displayed.

So, that is it. 
     
    ...
 
 
     
    ...

Thank you for purchasing Idroj.

Please, if you could, let me know your opinion about this file (also if you have any doubts about how to customize it).

You can send an e-mail to developer.rodrigo@gmail.com.

Note that you opinion it is very important, since possibly, I could make some enhancements in the file and make them available. I will really appreciate it.

Thank you again!

Hi benny_dh, I appreciate your comment, thank you. And, about the “learning so easily”, I think that it is subjective. Note, everyone has a own time to get some understand about anything (learning curve). This do not mean that you start learning something today and you will be an expert on it tomorrow. And I also do not think you are not very well in AS. You uploaded two items and had a lot of sale, come on guy! =)

@shadow66142000: The update to support 9.0.0 player have been commited, so try again and tell me if it worked now.

Hi Idroj,

I will make a full screen sample . I will update the samples of this file and also send a copy to you, ok?

Thank you!

I updated the samples.

It was the number 8 in the queue. I also sent to your e-mail a copy of the new samples.

Hi Idroj, thank you for your positive comments about the file.

I was starting to think it was not useful, but now I really glad that it has some application!

Hope more people can enjoy it!

P.S.-> If you could, let me see the project when it go public. I am really curious to see it.

Hi ottocid,

I received your e-mail. Probably what is happening is: you are trying to put a image that is larger than the itemRenderer.

In your case, this should make it work as expected:

import flash.geom.Rectangle;
scrollRect = new Rectangle( 0, 0, 80, 80 );

You have to put the above AS in the first line of the itemRenderer. This will ensure that all itemRenderers will have the same base size calculation.

Tell me if it worked to you.

These are really cool things, actually I am thinking about to rewrite this file in a more extensible way. The main goal of this file was to be easy to use by both, developers and designers.

To have more complex functionality, I think the core should be rewrite. So, the next version of this file could have this functionallity you’ve suggested.
