360|Flex is coming back to San Jose, CA on August 18-20, 2008. There are 3 full days of Flex sessions that should satisfy everybody’s needs from developers that are just getting started to the most advanced ones. They have a nice schedule so take a look and see what gets you excited. If you are serious about Flex you must attend this conference. The price is only $480 for all 3 days!!!
I also have a 1gb flash drive with content from 360|Flex Atlanta and Europe to give away to a commenter to this post. Just make sure that your email is correct so I can contact you. I’ll randomly select one commenter on August 10th and send him/her the flash drive. Good luck and see you there!

Did it happen to you that you removed or moved around an image or some other flex element and you could still see traces of that element in the initial position? It happened to me the other day and it took me a bit of time to find out a way of doing it. Here is what I came up with: yourDirtyFlexComponent.graphics.clear() or, depending on your application, you might want to do something like yourDirtyFlexComponent.parentApplication.graphics.clear(). Do you know another way of doing this? I would like to hear some alternatives.
Here is what a “dirty” stage might look like:
The demo for the JavaSIG presentation that Felipe and I have today is available to download in zip format here (or in 7z format here - this file is a lot smaller). This time the demo files are broken down into steps. On each step there is new functionality added (from a blank seam project to a fully functional flex - seam project that interacts with a database). There is a readme file that describes what is introduced on each step.
The steps necessary to test this demo are described here. javasig.ear (javasig-step-VI/dist/javasig.ear) can be dropped in jboss/server/default/deploy for quick testing of the application.
