This tree is a replacement for the standard flex tree, which is buggy, slow and not very customizable. With version 2.0, you have full control of the source, so you can tweak it to your needs. It has all the functionalities of the 1.4 version, but some of the stylenames have got another name to match the general stylenames of flex (eg. selectionColor), see the docs for that.
Usage:

<tree:FlpTree
	x="100"
	y="100"
	open="_openCheck(event)"
	close="_openCheck(event)"
	width="250"
	height="400"
	openNodeOnHover="true"
	hoverDelay="150"
	dataProvider="{adata}"
	borderColor="#000000"
	borderStyle="solid"
	borderThickness="1" />

If you find a bug in the source, please leave a comment to let me know!

Here’s what you’ll need:

• The source
• The compiled source (swc)
• The docs

Have fun!

Note: This component is written for Flex 3, it’s not tested on Flex 2 nor Flex 4!

Example:

Download: ComboBox.as

Usage: AirAlert.show(‘Test Alert!’, ‘Test Alert!’);
(The same as a normal alert )

Notice: I didn’t copy the Alert.YES / Alert.NO stuff, so you have to use those from the Alert class.
Notice2: You’ll find no license or whatsoever, just use it as you like.

Ow and by the way: right click to see the source and find out how it’s done.

The source seems to be fucked up, here’s the relevant code: http://experiments.flexperiments.nl/3dtext2/srcview/source/experiments/flexperiments/text3d/Text3dFXApp.as.html

• You can now edit any movieclip from the displaylist, not just the deepest ones
• Copy all to clipboard now works as expected
• Scrolling a numeric stepper only scrolls the stepper, not the tree
• It’s now possible to close root nodes
• The console scrolls with the content

And some features are added:

• Copy an object as JSON string (only works for simple / small objects)
• Re-added legacy support for our old (in-house) TFEDebugger

For this update you need to update both the SWC and the SWF / EXE file! But there’s backwards compatibility both ways.

And it’s available at the project page, now.

• FindNode(s) works now properly;
• Selection and multiselect now works
• Performance tweaks
• Other bugs which I forgot about
• Added open on hover

The openOnHover functionality lets a user open a node while dragging another onto it. (as proposed by Jonas Windey). Just set openOnHover on ‘true’ and set a hoverDelay.

Things to do:

• I still haven’t been able to find and fix the strange height bug. Sometimes, a node suddenly changes height, haven’t got a clue why.
• Make the creation of a renderer more user friendly. Probably with interfaces.
• Improve performance when working with huge datasets.

If you find any bugs or have feature requests or anything, just leave a comment below.

The tree now has a main download page, which can be found here. (This page is just an ad. )

Example:

• Send traces / strings
• Inspect objects, movieclips, displayobjects and alter their values.
• Browse through the displaylist of any (flex or flash) application.

You can compare this tool with the debugging options and object inspector of flex, but you now have the possibility to edit all the objects’ variables (only strings, numbers and booleans though) in real time.

How does it work?

Easy!

1. First, download the ASDebugger.swc and the ASDebugger as .exe or .swf (air version will follow on demand);
2. Include the swc file in your flex or flash project;
3. Place a debug statement like this: ASDebugger.debug_prop(<any object>) anywhere in your code;
4. Fire up the debugger;
5. Compile your project;
6. See what it sends to the ASDebugger, change the values you want to change, see your changes immediately!

How do I get it?

You can download the neccessary files from the ASDebugger project page.

Is it free?

For now, yes. But I’m not sure if future versions will be.

I have a question / found a bug / want to request a feature

Please leave a comment on any of the ASDebugger related posts on this blog (this post for instance ). Do let me know what you think!.

I wanna see an example!
