Flex & custom XMP panels

Post by csuebele »

Just got Flex builder 3, so I'm trying to learn that, but I want to create a custom XMP panel for PS CS4. I put the XMP JAR plug-in in the right location and when I create a new project I get 5 warnings:

The CSS type selector "ComboVox was not processed, because the type was not used in the application.

Same message the other four times but with DateChooser, HRule, TextArea, and XMPSeparator.

Also getting a error alert in the design box:

There is an error at line 99 of your MXML document: The "Boeing" Tag has invalid syntax.

Here's line 99:
<panels:Boeing id="_customPanel"/>

Boeing is the name of my project.

Any ideas on what I'm suppose to do?

It looks like the same warnings I get when I make a panel using the Adobe scope_skins. The css file that goes with that has settings for all the controls, and a warning will be listed for each control in the css that is not also in the panel.

It's safe to ignore those warnings. Or you could rename and edit the css file.

I'm not sure about the other error. I didn't have much luck the time I make a custom fileinfo panel. I couldn't even get the sample panel to show up in Photoshop.
