Working on automating backups, but can’t find a good way of appending date information to the file name using windows. Maybe just make a little executable?
Meeting with Christie about PPM
The financial POC and PM POC labels (or combo boxes) are switched.
Need to add a search that looks at project budgets – e.e. > $1,000,000,000, or < 0
Add double click to maximize window if easy
Add ability to enter cents in a budget or financial data? (Optional – Trish had this explicitly not be a requirements. It could lead to more errors?)
More commenting. Might finish today- done!
ImageScreen.mxml
TimedImage.as
TimedImageItemRenderer. Added capability to change bg color programatically.
Put together a shell script that backs up project_portfolio and moves the file to another machine in the enclave.
My svn isn’t working. Now it is. Dong fixed, after a few attempts.
More commenting. Maybe add a transition or two. Added transitions and learned a few things.
Components that have a transition must bein BasicLayout, with only x, y, width and height defined. If you need centering, you need to do that programatically, wising things like the FlexNativeWindowBoundsEvent.WINDOW_RESIZE event. Otherwise, the components get confused as to where to go after they have reached their endpoints
Programatically created classes also seem to have some issues. The SequenceScreen creates a series of ImageScreens, and I can’t get the SequenceScreen to work as part of a transition. Interestingly, transitions within a dynamically created ImageScreen work just fine.
Christie has asked Trish and a new guy (Tom?) to look over the beta. I sent a note saying that if everything seemed OK, I’d promote the beta on Thursday.
Working on item renderers and getting a tile layout to have border padding. Not sure why that isn’t working… Turns out that you need to use the left, right, top, bottom attributes.
Wrote up a binomial distribution class. Since I couldn’t find anything easily convertible, I put it up on fgmdev, under development.
Talked to Christie. She’s going to try out the new version and also show Trish. They’ll either call to discuss or I’ll pick up tomorrow
Chris’ first day. Her task list is:
Flex in a week
Mavenize AirFileImageApp, and fix MavenAssist to create Air apps
Start converting VISIBILITY to Flash4 (4.5?)
Working on AirFileImageApp
Trying to add a [Bindable] value that a skin can access. Done – had to extend the SkinnableContainer class with a small actionscript class. Interestingly, it makes <layout> part of the package where the inheriting class is instead of spark.components. . I’m guessing that it’s because layout is a variable?
ItemRenderer – mostly done – working with padding.
