RE: [Flashcoders] zinc issues with AS2
Personally, I've been awaiting a thin layer for this kind of interaction for a long long time. Not only will SWHX have the advantage that it's easy to extend and program, but also it will support the *nix variety of OS's (which I'm sure Zinc doesn't) and will be totally free. How cool is that? Another thought I love is that, seeing as the garbage collector used by Neko is fully supported on mobile platforms and that Neko is built using the basic C libraries, a Neko port to the Pocket PC and Windows CE devices is also possible... That should put Zinc for PPC to rest, too. ;-) Hooray for open source :) Lee -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cedric Muller Sent: 13 June 2006 11:37 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] zinc issues with AS2 I know fatally, I am looking for working solutions, not 2000 functionalities that fail (like Zinc) SWHX will be the only option in a few months, ... when it **matures** ;) cedric Maybe you should start looking into the new SWHX.

RE: [Flashcoders] mtasc and delegate
:) That's no problem. I actually feel much of the event managment code provided by Macr is fairly lacking. The Arp framework helps somewhat to fix this and the ArpX extention by Grant Davies goes one better with some nice system events and what not, but you'd think after all this time supporting AS2, Macr should have got their act together and provided this level of API themselves. Anyway, you'll probably find a couple of other issues with the MX classes when compiling with MTASC, though I forget which ones I've altered in the past. I'm sure you'll have no problems working out the necessary modifications though. Actually, I'm pretty sure there's a patch for the MX AS2 classes on osflash.org. Maybe you should look their and apply it to your existing classes?

Hi Merrill, I am not sure fi you are able to use LocalConnection or ExternalInterface without beining the same application.

You also have the problem you might not be able to trigger the popup from within your website/webpage. Maybe you can make some sort of notification application which can receive notify messages from you server or website, and then show it. Something like that should be possible, but most big companies (like the one where you work for) don't opening ports on client ports.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flash coders content degrading

Yeah, it can be done with the Flashants Ice player - http://www.flashants.com/root/index.shtml It's an ActiveX control you have to install.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash coders content degrading
I dont mean to offend anyone, but this *is* the newbie list - at least in part. There is nothing wrong with that. I have never been to the real newbie list, and would never make it there. Thats probably true for most of the people who might answer a question (though I honestly havent done much of that lately due primarily to workload). But if you are looking for cutting edge stuff that many people havent thought about before, this is probably no longer the place for that. Does that make this list a bad place? No. Does it make the people on it stupid? Hardly. But does it mean that over time you may look other places for certain types of more advanced or specific insight? I think so.

RE: [Flashcoders] Transparent independent window (not wmode)3rd party tools?
Don't you want something similar to the Chromeless windows of Internet Explorer? Google for it, it's a window which out the caption etc. No, that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about a non-square shaped flash file, transparent background, that can be dragged around the browser and outside the browser - our customer wants an odd-shaped application to sit off to the side outside the browser as a help tool made in flash. An install for an additional player is OK, and the Ice player allows this as a wrap around Active X for the Flash player, but it has some incompatibilities with the Flash 8 player.

On 6/13/06, Merrill, Jason [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm on both lists, and the newbie list is more advanced than you would think. Most of the questions there could easily be posted here. There are newbie questions of course, but a majority of the subscribers are intermediate to advanced Actionscripters. But what's the point of having two lists then? I don't and I can't read all of the messages here. I also found myself reading it far less than I used to. I like to help people when I can once I'm here, but I come here because there is the benefit of learning about issues others face so I'm aware of them should I run into them in the future. It helps me to know what is going on in the Flash world, what kind of tools are out there and what techniques people use. You know, those moments when you remember you read something somewhere and begin to look it up because you know there is something out there that might be helpful in the situation you found yourself in. However, when I read questions that show somebody didn't RTFM, I just roll my eyes and move on. If that happens too often, I just don't read the list any more. I don't consider that an elitist attitude at all, it really is only the short moment when I decide where to click -- I tend to click on, say, the haXe list or osflash as soon as I notice a new mail arrived because I find it exciting, but to be honest, when I click on FlashCoders, the motivation is, well, distraction. That's sad, and I really miss the discussions that used to be here during times when hot topics were whether to use Rebel Alliance style inheritance or to better stick with the docs and swallow that extra instantiation of a prototype object. Those were the kind of threads that drew me to this list, and I have learned a lot just by reading discussions between some of the resident AS Gods. I guess what it boils down to is that I need the feeling that the list is relevant to my needs to keep reading it. In fact, newbie questions are only part of the issue, the other is simply that Flash has grown and there are areas that don't affect me, no matter how sophisticated the question may be. For example, I don't use the Macromedia/Adobe components, so I consider questions regarding them as noise, even though they are of course totally appropriate to ask here. That there are obvious beginner questions is just something on top of that that lessens the value the list has for me, personally, and that seems unnecessary since there is a list specifically for FlashNewbies.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flash coders content degrading
Before Flashcoders was around, people had to solve their Flash problems on their own. After Flashcoders was around, some people didn't know about it and had to solve their Flash problems on their own. Bottom line is - the solutions are out there and many people don't take the time to try and solve their problems on their own before taking it to the list. They think that it will be faster if they just ask the list, without realizing they are robbing themselves of an important exercise in training their own resourcefulness and problem solving abilities, and at the same time degrading the signal to noise ratio of Flashcoders. I can't tell you how many times in the past three months I've seen the same exact newbie issues repeated over and over. Flashcoders is not supposed to be the newbie arena. It's become the newbie area because help vampires have infested it. If a question is 'beneath you' you got more problems than newbies. Nobody demands that you answer, so whee, get off the list then. I recommend reading some Ayn Rand. Just because you need doesn't mean you're entitled. Hasn't history proven that communism doesn't work? Don't expect others to help you simply because you need help and aren't willing to help yourself. Telling the Flash veterans to help me, ignore me, or piss off is eventually going to reduce this list to newbies helping newbies. Your response to Try searching the archives or google for your answers before asking the list is If you don't want to help me, shut up. Apparently, petulant children have taken over. The internet is the world's most comprehensive encyclopedia. While wikipedia might have fallacious information in it, it's very rare to find misleading facts about Flash out there. This article sums it up very well. http://www.slash7.com/pages/vampires It's so regular you could set your watch by it. The decay of a community is just as predictable as the decay of certain stable nuclear isotopes. As soon as an open source project, language, or what-have-you achieves a certain notoriety-its half-life, if you will-they swarm in, seemingly draining the very life out of the community itself. The chief indicator of a Help Vampire problem is the lack of helpfulness-the community may still appear to be bustling and lively, but if on closer inspection the conversation is all towards the shallow end of the pool, with moderately difficult questions going unanswered, then a Help Vampire infestation is likely. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Perfect example of what we are talking about: I have a noobie question that cannot be answered on the noob list. I know it is a noob question because I have been told on this list that it is. But even though I have tried all suggestions I still can not get an mp3 player to get it's xml list through a Flashvar in the embed tag. I'm going to get sort of unfriendly for a moment. I hate to, but I think this illustrates the topic at hand. Matt, What makes you think it can't be answered on the newbie list? And if you've been told it's a newbie question, then why NOT ask the newbie list? We've actually answered your questions here on Flashcoders regarding that a hundred different ways. I think the real problem here, Count Chocula, is you're not employing basic debugging routines. You're also assuming that to get an mp3 player to get it's xml list through a Flashvar in the embed tag is a single problem to tackle with a single answer. It's not. That's two separate issues to tackle at minimum. First tackle getting a string from Flashvars. Then push that string to your mp3 player and debug that. I think the trace() function will help you a lot. At least spread some around and tell us what you see. That will be a lot more useful to us in helping you than just complaining you still can't get it working and asking us to use our please use our Actionscript Super Powers to save you. :) Jason Merrill Bank of America Learning Technology Solutions -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:flashcoders- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matt Mc Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2006 12:21 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Flash coders content degrading Hello I am a Noob, I have a noobie question that cannot be answered on the noob list.

Arguments aside whether using components is a good idea in the first place :-) I wanted to ask if there are XP Components users in Flashcoders? I'm trying to figure out how they're used from within Actionscript only, and am having trouble in lack of examples. The documentation of XP Components is pretty, uh, light and while it may be sufficient for someone very familiar with component use, for someone who's not extremely familiar with them, some examples would have come handy. If someone here uses them, and happens to have handy a piece of code where XPC interface components are instantiated from code, preferably without use of forms (is that possible in the first place - they seem to heavily advocate use of forms based design), it would be really helpful to see an example.

Re: [Flashcoders] Eolas fix and backspace key flash bug
Is the problem that you can't run Javascript at all, or that you need to put the embed code in html instead of javascript? You could use this patent fix: http://www.unfocus.com/projects/patentmagic/ It still relies on scripting being enabled (so you'd still have this problem for anyone that doesn't have JS enabled - if they don't have JS enabled, they probably don't have ActiveX enable either though), but you can at least use your html markup to embed the flash movie. Kevin N. Alec Matusis wrote: I have to embed flash applets into web pages directly, without Javascript Eolas workaround. The users therefore have to click to activate the flash movie in IE. After that, the Flash movie properly receives the text input, EXCEPT for Backspace and Tab keys. Pressing Backspace has an action of Back button in the browser, it takes a user back one page. Pressing Tab moves the focus into another object in the browser. So it looks like when the control is activated , the Flash receives only a PARTIAL focus: it accepts all text input except Backspace and Tab.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flash coders content degrading
Bottom line is if someone gets stuck they are going to find help where they can. To tell you the truth I would post just about any place to be able to get an answer just so I can go to sleep one night this week. Some of us are not action scripting for fun. We are working in the real world, I am a designer I am learning flash and can make my way around the flash design environment just fine. If I knew enough about action scripting not to need help (noob) than I wouldn't really need this list now would I. Also if the Noob list wasn't so Noob I could get my problem solved their without getting spurned by an elitist. I've got four words for you. Buy a freaking book. :) There are NUMEROUS books out there on the subject. There are books dedicated to helping designers learn how to code in Flash from a designer's perspective. I'm sure you'll find something at Amazon or your local bookstore. When I wanted to learn Ruby on Rails, I went out and bought a few books. I read them from cover to cover and then I started coding, referring back to the books when I needed assistance. If I came across something the book didn't cover, I'd run a bunch of google searches. Finally, if I couldn't figure something out, I'd hop on the IRC channel and ask very specific questions which would lead me towards the solution, not asking for the solution. Here's the truth. Programming is not for everyone. It requires a type of patience, perseverance, and masochism that few possess. Maybe you're just not cut out for it. That doesn't mean anyone is better than you, just different than you. If your strength is design, I say follow that path because programming really can be frustrating for many people. I can't draw a button. Anytime I try I end up frustrated. Imagine if there was a mailing list for designers and I got on and asked questions about how to draw buttons. I might get help at first but eventually people would say Go buy a book on drawing and practice. I have friends who have been drawing since they were children. They have a sketchbook and always have some book like how to draw faces, or arms, or animals, or whatever. They're constantly practicing techniques. It's no different.

Originally: I have to embed flash applets into web pages directly, without Javascript Eolas workaround. The users therefore have to click to activate the flash movie in IE. Using noscript doesn't fix the EOLAS click to activate *feature* and the focus bugs that it likely creates. Getting back to the original questio, I can't replicate the BACKSPACE issue, but I definitely see it with TAB. One possible workaround could be to set a textfield off stage. Tab will still go through the movie before going back to the browser, so maybe setting a onSetFocus handler to look for that and then manually refocusing on that one text field? Might keep IE at bay, but I haven't tested it. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

RE: [Flashcoders] Re: Flash coders content degrading (Mark Winterhalder)
You do realize that this is, and always has been, an unmoderated list, right? Now that isn't true at all. I remember back in the early years the OT police jumped on anyone who posted OT stuff. Brendan was behind most of that, and since his departure it seems the list has slowly gotten more and more out of control. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Mark, I think a bit of confusion. It was in ken's posting, and he put your name in the subject line. Dave then responded to ken, not you.
