Flex 4 is build around TLF and to embed fonts you need to add "embedAsCFF:true" to the Embed statement which is a Flex 4 (or greater) option.

06 Apr: Use Vellum (Text Layout Framework) in Flex 3 with Embedded fonts
posted by: martijn, at 6 April 2011 22:42 GMT+1, 6 April 2011 22:52 GMT+1
Vellum or Text Layout Framework (in short TLF) is a Flash framework build upon the new Flash Player 10 text engine which enables developers better text handling. Great!But I needed to use TLF in a Flex 3 project, this is a way I found to embed fonts for TLF in Flex 3: http://martijnvanbeek.net/projects/embedfont/Please note: This is a dump of a test project and is absolutely explained etc.

26 Nov: mx:Container focus hack
posted by: martijn, at 26 November 2010 12:16 GMT+1, 26 November 2010 12:25 GMT+1
Just FYI when you want to have fullaccess to elements within a container/canvas that can scroll the following hack works great but it feels like a huge hack. Create a new class that extends container/canvas and put the following code in it:override public function addEventListener( type:String, listener:Function, useCapture:Boolean = false, priority:int = 0, useWeakReference:Boolean = false):void { if ( ! ( type == MouseEvent.CLICK || type == MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK || type == MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN || type == MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE || type == MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER || type == MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT || type == MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP || //type == MouseEvent.MOUSE_WHEEL|| type == KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN || type == KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP ) ) { super.addEventListener(type, listener, useCapture, priority, useWeakReference); } };Ugly but works!

24 Aug: XPath Analyser Project
posted by: martijn, at 24 August 2010 12:49 GMT+1, 25 August 2010 22:35 GMT+1
Today I'm releasing a very simple project: XPath Analyser. I wrote the project because I missed a tool that could help me out writing XPath queries.The application can test XPath 1.0 style queries and for good error reporting you need the Flash Debug Player. The project heavily depends on the as3xpathlib written by Andrew Lewisohn (alewisohn).
