[Flashcoders] Hide scrollbar until enough text to require it (UIScrollbar)
When I include the UIScrollbar in my flash movie, the bar element appears even when there is no text yet in the input text area and unfortunately it isn't that pretty on its own. So I would like this not to appear until there is enough text to justify its appearance. The arrows do not appear until such time. Any help much appreciated.

[Flashcoders] I get a mcl onLoadError, server log claims file got server...
Hi there,
I've got a Player preloading a large SWF, with a movieClipLoader.
When an onLoadError is received, an e-mail is send to me through an
ASP page, with all the details of the platform.
I get mails where onLoadError was called, but the file exists when I
click the link. Moreover: the server log claims a 200 response code
for the file. When I include a string
onLoadError{
sendASPmail(loaded +holder_mc.getBytesLoaded())
... the size of the holder is never 0, and it keeps on loading!
Any ideas to what may trigger this false onLoadError? I get them on
all platforms and plugin versions...
thanks,
Sander.

[Flashcoders] Degrade AS2 code to AS1 - how to?
Hello Flashcoders, I have a client who wants to make significant improvements to their flash site (quite big). However, as site currently uses Flash 6 (or even 5) style programming, even (!) with NO external files, they insist that all should be done in the same manner. Mean no classes, no ext. files. Hope I'll be able to avoid distributing code to clips ... :-( All you know how non-convenient this approache seems now, after 2 years of class-based OOP in AS2. So, as there's a lot of coding, I'd like to use AS2 where possible during development. Question: Is there a way to automatically (or semi-automatically) convert AS2 code (with or w/o external classes) to AS1-styled code w/o ext. files?

Sorry, you can't do that with the V2 component. However I don't see
why you want to... The way it works now is you set the contentPath to
the linkage ID of a clip in the library, then attach the individual

than the old way... why build content outside the pane then put it
inside? ... instead just build it directly inside the pane from the
start.

I have tried using both content (which is read-only) and contentPath
(which seems to target a enternal source, or a movieclip in the
library with a linkage set). The problem is I am dynamically creating
the clips first on the stage, then placing them in the scrollpane, so
it does not contain a linkage in the library.

RE: [Flashcoders] Degrade AS2 code to AS1 - how to?
Why would using external files make any difference to the performance. The As is added to the swf at compile time so the client would never need know ? Other way to address this is to provide two costs. One for the way you wish to do it, and one for his way which should be 2-3 times more expensive. That way he/she has no choice. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gregory Nikolaev Sent: 02 December 2005 11:45 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] Degrade AS2 code to AS1 - how to?

ttl is the time to live, e.g. the depth of the recursion. 0 is unlimited.
indent and traceID are best omitted initially.
so, to trace all, you would simply say:
objTrace( _root, _root );
to trace all clips, but not objects and arrays:

Hi Rishi You've posted on this several times now with the same question and have been given good advice - ie. Check out the displacement map filter option. Your only other option is to get the array of pixels for an offstage text box and work out the transformations yourself and apply them to an empty bitmap with setpixels. There may be examples of this kind of code on plugin writing sites for things like lens, pinch, punch, sphereize and cylindrical wrapping - you'll have to trawl google for this.

Another way you can do this is by using a combination of the BitmapData.draw method and the Rectangle object.

RE: [Flashcoders] Changing a textfield on a dynamically addedmovieClip
Radley,
Thanks for the response but I can't do that because at that point the movieclip
hasn't been initiated yet.
I'm using a listener to tell when the movieClip is initiated. 'labelText' is
just a variable attached to the movieClip so I can grab it later.
I'm looking for the code that lets me grab 'labelText' from within a listener
object. Here's what I have
loadListener.onLoadInit = function(movieClip){
trace(Button init | Name = + movieClip._name);// which
returns the corect value - 'selectBtn_0' or 'selectBtn_1'
trace(moveClip.labelText = + movieClip.labelText);// which
returns 'undefinded' - I want it to return 'One Player' or 'Two Player'
movieClip.btnLabel.text = movieClip.labelText; // puts
'undefined' correctly in the textfield - but I don't want 'undefined', see above
}
I know that 'labelText' is attached to the movieClip because outside the
listener I have this trace:
trace(this[tempBtnName].labelText= + this[tempBtnName].labelText);
returns 'One Player' or 'Two Player' as exspected
Thanks again,
Rich

Macromedia Flash is a widely distributed application and is used to create simple motion graphics, video and animation for interactive websites. A plug-in adds a specific feature or service to a larger system, such as Macromedia Flash. The first vulnerability affects the Macromedia Flash Action Define Function Memory Access plug-in. This plug-in is vulnerable to an input validation error, which is when data that's entered exceeds the accepted boundaries of the application. This violation causes the application to crash, creating a Denial of Service (DoS). The second vulnerability affects the Macromedia Flash Array Index Memory Access plug-in. This plug-in is also vulnerable to an input validation error, except it is exploited by entering non-standard code into the application causing it to crash, creating the DoS. This occurs when an intruder would entice a user to download the malicious code. These vulnerabilities could result in an intruder gaining full access, executing non-standard code or causing a DoS. Macromedia Flash 6 and 7 are affected by both these vulnerabilities. The JTF-GNO has not received any reports of DoD incidents in regard to these vulnerabilities. However, a public Proof of Concept is currently circulating in the wild.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flash security advisories from U.S. Navy/Marines?
The vulnerabilities were reported on Bugtraq (http://search.securityfocus.com/swsearch?query=macromediasbm=%2Fsubmit=Se arch%21metaname=alldocsort=swishlastmodified) a couple weeks ago. The vulnerabilities involve an attacker creating a malicious .swf file and tricking a user into downloading it, similar to a web site tricking a user into downloading a virus. If you're creating a Flash application/animation for a customer, though, it's obviously not malicious, and thus the application itself is not susceptible to the attack. The problem will be political, though, convincing your DoD customer your application isn't vulnerable. Of course, the reason to ban Flash player is less about interfacing with your benign application, and more about worrying that a user will inadvertently connect to another site that *does* have a malicious .swf file. The bug is in the Flash player, and can lead to compromise of the client's system. -Chris -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Merrill, Jason Sent: Friday, December 02, 2005 1:51 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] Flash security advisories from U.S. Navy/Marines?

RE: [Flashcoders] Screen Capture with Flash
Camera is encoded in the player using the Spark codec and Microphone is encoded using the NellyMoser codec. You can encode the screen with Flash Player's video encoding, but first you have to make the screen available as a wdm video source. You can do this, but you'll have to use an installable tool (like camtasia) to accomplish it. Screen sharing typically uses a different codec, since encoding even 640x480 px using the stock Spark codec would either look really bad or use too much bandwidth. There is no encoding for this natively in Flash Player, and if there were you still wouldn't have access to the screen as a video source. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news...

Re: [Flashcoders] Selection.setFocus()
Hi Manuel,
We are needing something like this as well. We set the tab order in code
or use the accessability window. When we tab to a v2 button then the
tabbing breaks. If it makes you feel any better I could not get this to
work either.
A thing to note is the help docs have qoutes around the setFocus parameter.
Selection.setFocus(this.dataPanel.titleMc.input1.iField);
Also be aware of scope issues with this code. Be sure to trace out your
dot notation paths.
trace(this.dataPanel.titleMc.input1.iField=+this.dataPanel.titleMc.input1.iField)
to make sure you do not get undefined. When writing code like this break
it down and get it to work by itself and move up from there. Listener
objects are notoriously issue prone.

Re: [Flashcoders] Q: Converting from base 10 to hex?
Hi,
nothing, google for 2-complement numbers and you'll see why it shows up as
a negative number.

To start I want to fill with a 50% grey, which as an argb number would be
255,128,128,128
I tried using the following function from Guy Watson's tutorial:
function argbtohex(a:Number, r:Number, g:Number, b:Number)
{
return (a24 | r16 | g8 | b)
}
I get the value '-8355712'
What am I doing wrong??

Re: [Flashcoders] Screen Capture with Flash
Thanks for the info Jim--I was hoping for a different outcome, but its good to know what I'm up against. On 12/2/05, Jim Phelan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Camera is encoded in the player using the Spark codec and Microphone is encoded using the NellyMoser codec. You can encode the screen with Flash Player's video encoding, but first you have to make the screen available as a wdm video source. You can do this, but you'll have to use an installable tool (like camtasia) to accomplish it. Screen sharing typically uses a different codec, since encoding even 640x480 px using the stock Spark codec would either look really bad or use too much bandwidth. There is no encoding for this natively in Flash Player, and if there were you still wouldn't have access to the screen as a video source. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news...

[Flashcoders] List Component
The List Component allows you to set linked symbols as Icons for each list item. I'm looking to use external thumbnails as my icons, but it tends to prove difficult due to the nature of how these symbols are attached. Does anyone know if I'm able to retrieve the 'icon' path and perhaps with some class registration set the content to load a thumbnail? Ideally, I'd like to able to say List.ListItem.icon.loadThumbNailSrc(), just of course not in so many dot notations. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] List Component
Hey John, Just as a suggestion, check out the ghostwire components at http://ghostwire.com They have a list component that I believe is capable of what you are looking to do. I believe you can use either symbols or external files with their list component. Just a possible suggestion. Note: I do not work for them, I just use their components regularily.

Hey Ryan, I know. I know. Its not a hard thing to write but what I generally work on is an Intranet where bandwidth isn't an issue, but developing speed is. So the components are a simple and quick way to get the job done effectively. And to be honest, as far as components go, Ghostwire components are top-notch.

Hi List, I'm trying to figure out what radius to make n number of circles fit around a circle of radius r. Several diagrams later I'd got it down to: sinA = x / (x + r) Where A is half the angle required by each circle ((360/n)/2), x is the radius we're looking for and r is the radius of the circle in the middle. Sadly my maths just aren't up to solving for x... Maths teachers are always teeling you you'll need algebra one day...
