Improvement details on Kalileo 2.2

by Steeve Cayla published on 16 Nov, 2011

The new Kalileo release is rich of interesting features. We have been working especially on resolving some performance and aesthetics issues. In this blog ticket, we will give a concise overview of some of these features.

Bitmap panning as a solution for large graphs

Many customers have expressed their satisfaction on the rendering and layout speed of large graphs. But, when speaking about basic interactions with such graphs, they noticed the low speed and lagging effects especially when panning which is the most basic interaction with huge diagrams.
Before speaking about the solution we have included, it is obvious to precise the meaning of a huge graph from Kalileo consideration and with respect to Flash Display List limitations. A huge graph is a graph containing more than 1000 elements including nodes and links (without consideration of decorators). The number definition may be doubled when using Sprite based elements on any components of the Kalileo product. From such definition, any Flex/Flash developper can deduce that changing the position of each of these elements at once and at each mouse move event leads inevitably to performance problems. In order, to get rid of these repetitive displacements and their performance impact, we have added a bitmap panning option on the PanAction via its PanActionData (enableBitmapPan property). When activating this option, on each panning action start (Mouse Down event), a bitmap of the Visualizer is computed, all graph artifacts are made invisible to let the user pan the Bitmap exclusively to the chosen position (Mouse Move event). At position validation (Mouse Up event), the computed Bitmap is deleted from the DisplayList to show and validate the new positions of the graph elements. The result is very interesting and we think that such solutions may be extended to some other interactions (Zoom, Node displacement with huge link dependencies....).

Enhancements on the Hierarchical Cyclic Layout

Flow diagrams are generally organized via the Hierarchical Cyclic Layout for the best aesthetic representation. The previous versions of Kalileo have some aesthetic issues when combining link anchoring, edge crossing minimisation and Hierarchical Cyclic Layout. In the research field, this kind of problem is addressed via link routing techniques that can lead to serious performance falls especially when performing these computations on a Web context.
Considering these facts, we have enhanced our layout with:

  • Better support of anchors when computing an edge's path via a proprietary local node routing. The aesthetic result is not optimal but can be considered as a good deal between performance and aesthetics;
  • Consideration of link anchoring on nodes when dealing with edge crossing minimization problem;
  • Support of overlapping links' segments separation on both orthogonal and free links' shape.

Enhancements on links support

In many use cases (BPM, UML...), diagramming experience needs to integrate algorithms to avoid links overlapping with nodes or links segments. These algorithms are generally considered as Edge Routing algorithms.
In the previous versions, a general edge routing algorithm has been proposed and acts on the whole graph. But, as we are aware of our customers needs, we have noticed the need of live edge routing meaning that any new created link need to be routed to minimize overlapping with all the other graph elements in a pseudo-immediate manner. Thus, we have provided several methods to perform routing directives pragmatically. A great enhancement has been also performed on the LinkAction behavior and customization level with:

  • the support of link routing with respect to anchoring constraints;
  • the support of live routing at link creation time (via enableRouting on the routingParam of LinkActionData) and event at link pre-creation when the user moves the ghost link (via enableDynamicRouting on the routingParam of LinkActionData);
  • the ability to automatically nudge overlapping link segments for more visibility. This feature can be activated or not within routing via (enableNudging and enableDynamicNudging on the routingParam of LinkActionData);
  • the auto-assignment of link extremities anchoring if the source or/and the target have anchors with respect to the created link shape.

We are aware that edge routing algorithms are continuously enhanced and we will be following these enhancements.

Besides, links extremity and anchoring can be modified by the user by just dragging the extremity to target/source node of your choice or to the requested anchoring position. This behavior can be totally customized and live link routing is also supported on the ExtremityChangeAction via its ExtremityChangeActionData.

Kolbert Released!

by Steeve Cayla published on 06 Oct, 2011

Dear Kap Lab community,
We've just released version 2.1 of Kolbert today.

First, please welcome Pictogram Chart! Pictogram charts are diagrams that use same-sized pictograms to convey number data.
Because in some charts variation in size does not allow accurate comparison (wider images can lead users to think that the data values are larger, ...) repeated pictograms represent a fixed value that can be counted if necessary.
Take a look at our demo to see it in action. By the way, this is our first Spark based component!

Speaking of which, Elastic Search is also based on Spark architecture now. You can now customize the filters as you wish.

If you played a bit with the Pictogram Chart demo, you may have noticed we updated all previous Kolbert demos with a new look: Treemap, RadarChart, RingChart and Elastic Search.
As usual, the source code is available for all of them!

This release also comes with several improvements as well as bug fixes. Please have a look at the release notes.

Kap Lab's success depends on your satisfaction so let us know how it goes in our forum.

Klovis v1.0 released!

by Steeve Cayla published on 13 Jul, 2011

We're really excited to announce the release 1.0 of Klovis!
A bit more than a year ago, we decided to open-source some of the components we use in our projects.
Release after release, we added more components and libraries, fixed bugs, added documentation, code samples and so on.

Whether you're doing pure AS3 projects or using the latest Flex SDK version (4.5.1), you will for sure find some
useful components that will save you time in your everyday job.

In order to ease the discovery of the component without the need to browse the documentation in search of
interesting ones, we've started to add demos for some of them. We've made 15 demos for this release, and we plan
to add a lot more in the near future. Of course, we still encourage you to read the documentation, there is a
lot of stuff to discover.

As usual, the release notes contains important information regarding changes in the 1.0 release of the product.

We are always interested in what you think about our products, so please use the forum and the bug tracker
to give your feedback and send your questions.

by Steeve Cayla published on 11 Mar, 2011

Dear Kap Lab community,

2010 was a very rewarding year for Kap IT in France and all over the world through its lab, Kap Lab. We owe it all to you and foremost we wanted to thank you warmly for your constant support and feedback.
Today, after more than one year of intensive R&D, Kap Lab proudly introduces version 2.0 of its Flex Data Visualization components reviewed in 2 new packages: Kalileo for diagramming and Kolbert for reporting.


Kalileo - Kap Lab's Diagrammer and Visualizer reloaded


Kalileo: interactive graph-based interfaces made easy

Kap Lab's Diagrammer and Visualizer 2.0 are released in a merged version for an even more interactive data visualization experience.

Enhanced performances and new features galore!

Optimizations on data processing and layouts computation have been performed and you will find all the features needed to build powerful graph-based applications (BPM, Data Mining, Network Cartography.): smart grouping, new layouts, visual sub-components, zoom effects, import/export, link easing... AND MORE! See the release note and the features tour videos.

Easier integration ever

Architecture of Diagrammer and Visualizer have been deeply reengineered to be based on common foundations, respecting the power and extensibility of Flex components (full CSS styling, fully extensible through public interfaces...). Furthermore our documentation has been totally reviewed, consolidated in one place, Kap Lab's Developer Guide, and embedded with our components. For more integration support, check our website: sample applications, developer videos, forum, migration guide.


Kolbert - Flex Reporting package


Kolbert: Flex package for your advanced reporting dashboards

Treemap, Radar Chart, Ring Chart and Elastic Search are now bundled in a single package: Kolbert.
These reporting components benefit from the same new data processing library as Kalileo, which will enhance parsing performances from 3 to 10 times depending on the input format.See the release note for complete list of changes.


New licenses including full support


New commercial licenses including full support

For Kalileo and Kolbert, community versions remain free and support is now included in the Standard and OEM commercial licenses (special discount for start-ups, academic institutes and open source projects). To existing customers: don't worry, we'll come back to you really shortly with special offers on upgrade. All information available on the new Kap Lab Store.


Anew, thanks to Kap Lab's faithful users and customers (thanks to you!), without whom we wouldn't have made it.

New releases and updates of our Flex development tools

by Steeve Cayla published on 09 Nov, 2010



Dear community,
We release today some new stuff in our Flex development tools.
Firstly, we're glad to announce a new console: ParsleyConsole.
Parsley is our current framework of choice and we thought it would be great to offer the Flex community a console that shows what's happening inside their applications.
We've already provided other frameworks console in the past with the Cairngorm Console and the PureMVC Console and we had a lot of good feedback for them. We really hope you'll enjoy this one as well.

And the good news keeps getting better! We've also decided to publish the source code of all our consoles. (LGPL Licence)
You'll find a link to grab the source code on each console page. Feel free to contribute to any console by adding the features you've always dreamt of.

Last but not least, a new version of the Klovis libraries is available. We added a spark LoginBox/AdvancedLoginBox with a default skin in the Flex 4 UI library.
Most of other improvements have been made in the AS3 library, especially with the collections classes. More info can be found in the release notes.

Stay tuned.

Kap IT Team.

Kap IT launches a new release of Kap Lab on September 30, 2009

by Steeve Cayla published on 01 Oct, 2009


Kap IT launches a new release of Kap Lab on September 30, 2009



Hello Kap Lab Community !


We are glad to celebrate today the first Kap Lab's anniversary.

First of all, we would like thank all of you who participate in building the Kap Lab community. It is a great satisfaction for the Kap Lab Team to see the community growing.

During this year we have released:

  • 12 minor releases of existing components
  • A new reporting component: RingChart
  • 2 new tools to optimize Flex development: PureMVC and Cairngorm console
  • An advanced layout for Visualizer and Diagrammer: Orthogonal layout

The amount of subscribers had reached 7,000 in a year; the forum shows a great activity and the amount of download have reached up to 20,000 for Diagrammer, Visualizer and Kap Inspect.

Those results and your positive feedbacks encouraged us. Thanks a lot. Nevertheless we value all of your feedbacks, so we have paid a high attention to your request of improvement.

In priority, many of you have requested better documentation, source code of demo applications, source code of the components and a clarification about our licensing for commercial purpose.
So we have tried to improve greatly packaging and we decided to adjust our distribution policy.

We hope that this new release will satisfy your wishes!
This new release of Kap Lab offers two versions of the components:

  • A community version for non commercial purpose with a small "powered by Kap IT" mention.
    This version comes with better documentation and the source code of demo applications.
    All for free!
  • A Commercial version without any trademark and with components source code for reference.
    This version is OEM compatible.

Moreover we release 3 new components:

  • Elactic Lists : An advanced Flex component for incremental and multi-criteria search in large data sets
  • Java2Flex : An eclipse plug-in to generate from a Java package the Flex foundation on Cairngorm or PureMVC
  • ConfluenceFx : Flex plug-in and Air widget for Confluence enterprise wiki (from Atlassian)

All our components benefit from Kap IT experiences in business application development and IT modernization and reciprocally Kap IT services benefit of Kap Lab products and its R&D Center.
We hope that our efforts to improve our quality and to continue to give you innovative components will satisfy you.

Let us know and thanks again for your trust.

See you soon on Kap Lab or better at Adobe Max '09 : We will be there!


Kind regards.

Flex2Mobile with Kap IT and Open-Plug

by Kap IT published on 22 Dec, 2009

Kap IT@MAX 09 with OpenPlug



Extend your Flex applications to the mobile space with Elips Studio 3.0

The extension of your entreprise applications to mobile can bring great opportunities such as tracking your business activity anywhere at any moment.
However, programming for mobile devices is becoming harder and harder, thanks to the hundreds of handhelds and smartphones available on the market : Many of them are running on various OS, making development, maintenance and testing complex, expensive and recquiring most of the time a strong expertise.

Kap IT is glad to announce its first steps with Elips, a Flex2Mobile solution made by OpenPlug :
With Elips, you can now easily port your flex application to a mobile device without any other development knowledge.
Elips is a cross compiler capable of creating executable code for your mobile OS based on a Flex application source code.
Thus, Elips reduces the gap between developing an application for the mobile and for the web/desktop :

  • No need to re-build your application from the ground up.
  • Reuse the business logic of an existing Flex app
  • Reuse your Flex knowledge

First Steps With Elips Studio 3.0

At Kap IT, we used Elips to build ConfluenceMobile, a mobile extension for ConfluenceDesktop, our widget solution for Confluence enterprise wiki.
It only took a few days to make ConfluenceMobile working on a HTC Touch Diamond:

  • Installing Elips Studio, an extension to Flex Builder/Eclipse
  • Changing the visual and user experience to make it mobile friendly (Basically, keeping the UI simple and small screen compatible)
  • Integrating the existing business logic (Services calls, parsing, model updates,...)

Export a CAB archive from Flex Builder, and voilà, you get a nice app on your mobile that allows you to follow and interact with your entreprise business from anywhere.

We recorded a screencast of ConfluenceMobile running on a Windows Mobile emulator.



See Elips in action at Adobe MAX next week!

For those who plan to attend MAX in Los Angeles next week, OpenPlug will give an overview of the development workflow, from design in Flex Builder to application execution on several devices. The session will take place on tuesday from 4:30pm to 5:30pm. We hope to see you there!

At Kap IT, we are very proud that Kap Lab's components have been selected by Adobe to be integrated in Tour de Flex, under "Data Visualization" category with Diagrammer, Treemap, Visualizer and RadarChart, and also under "Other Components" category with KapInspect.


Do not hesitate to download Tour de Flex, because beyond our samples, it is an amazing tool for discovering flex possibilities, but also for having all the information you need to exploit them (code samples, howtos, ...)
