RE: [Flashcoders] jigsaw performance issue
now for the problem.. if you see the flash movie i've attached, you'll notice that when a group of pieces that are connected to each other are moved sometimes it lags. I've manage to lock down the core problem, which is that it only lags when you drag a piece located from the left / top most of the Group. It wont lag if only you drag the right/bottom most of the Group. The drag method for groups is done customely and it tells the members of the Group object the piece you're dragging, to move as well. The code: It seems you're being unnecessarily complicated here. Why take the pieces, move piece A, remove piece A from the group and then move all the rest? I'd do it all in one loop. As for the source of your problem, I'm guessing it's because the mouse moves while the loop is running. Try storing the _xmouse and _ymouse properties at the start of the loop.

[Flashcoders] setSelection() with TextInput?
Hi all. I've been beating my head against the wall for a bit, trying to get Selection.setSelection() to work inside a component. I've got this code, inside a component which happens to contain a TextInput: private function focusIn(){ trace(answer_ti.text + ] received focus); answer_ti.setFocus(); Selection.setSelection(0, answer_ti.text.length); } Which gets runs when answer_ti fires a focusIn event. This just doesn't seem to work... the trace statement comes up, but I can't see the selection change. Is there anything I've overlooked? I tried to use Delegate for event handling, but it didn't make a difference.

RE: [Flashcoders] Evenly distribute n clips in an area
Hi, this problem was raised in 2002 and sort of solved by Jon Bradley (code below) but not quite the way I need. What I¹m after is a function that divides a defined area into n equal parts and places a clip in each part to achieve even distribution throughout the area. Jon Bradley¹s solution below does this for only the x, y or diagonally across both not throughout the whole area... The math involved is beyond me I¹m afraid. Any ideas? Any help much appreciated.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flash and speech utility
Hi Elena, We did a flash viral where the user typed in a sentence and specified either male or female. It's still live and is here http://www.choicedummies.com/ The details were then sent to a php page which plugged into a server app developed by Cepstral. http://www.cepstral.com/ In the flash a sound object was set up, and then the results from the php script were loaded into it. So it would be something like var speechObj:Object = new Sound(); speechObj.onLoad = function(success) { if (success) { playSpeech (); } }; speechObj.onSoundComplete = function() { stopSpeech (); } speechPostObj.load(speechPostURL + ?sex= + sex + text= + escape(inputMessage)); I don't know much about the cepstral side of it, our server guy did that, but he found it pretty straight forward and it worked reliably. I believe you have to pay for it though. There are probably other solutions out there, but this might give you a starting point. Anyhoo, hope it helps!

[Flashcoders] mpg to fla conversion
I've been looking all over the internet for a tool that will convert a batch of mpg files to flas with (oldskool) video symbols in their library, preferably with the option to have sound as a separate symbol. Flash itself can batch-convert to FLV, but that's not what I need as I need some overlay effects done in the IDE and cue points are simply too unreliable.

Re: [Flashcoders] FLV8/VP6 decoding?
- VP6 is a 'lossy' codec, which means it degrades the image quality of the video. If you convert an FLV to an AVI, you will get a low quality video with a high file size. Any compression you put on top will further degrade the quality of the image. With this caveat in mind, you can convert an FLV to an AVI. The only way I know of is to import your FLV into the timeline of a new flash movie (make sure to set the correct stage size and frame rate). You can then export the flash movie to AVI format.

Re: [Flashcoders] FLV8/VP6 decoding?
Yes I know all about lossy vs not-lossy etc, etc. I have totally other reasons to want to decode FLV8 than quality and filesize. For example, what about generating thumbnails out of FLV8 or convert FLV8 to 3gp for my mobile phone? I can do all these things with FLV7 but bot with FLV8. So I need to decode FLV8 files, with VP6 codec. I can decode FLV7 with Sorenson Spark really easy using FFmpeg or somilar opensource tools. FLV8 is the trouble maker, no tool I have seen supports decoding this format. Any help? On2 has a 'VP6 decoder' (see http://www.on2.com/downloads/vp6-decoder/) but I am unsure how to use it and if it will decode FLV8? -Coderman Mike Cobb wrote: - VP6 is a 'lossy' codec, which means it degrades the image quality of the video.

Re: [Flashcoders] MC position at any given time
Tween is prob. doc.'d in flash 8 help, I'm guessing. If you're using the ZigoEngine you would do mytarget.addListener(listenerobj); then create an onTweenUpdate method in listenerobj. But typically using the callback param is easier: function triggerSquare2() { if (square1_mc._x 100) return; // only start the next tween once. if (ZigoEngine.isTweening(square2_mc, '_x')==true) return; ZigoEngine.doTween(square2_mc, '_x', 200, Strong.easeInOut); } ZigoEngine.doTween(square1_mc, '_x', 200, Strong.easeInOut, 0, { updscope:this, updfunc:triggerSquare2 }); In your situation it would be just as easy to use a setInterval or onEnterFrame method to do the same thing, plus that way you could kill it when the second tween starts -- the above way fires the function every update.

Re: [Flashcoders] Stylesheet Formatting of Default Tags
You may be right. It could also be a simple limitation of how the HTML parser links up to the CSS parser. Still, it would be good to know why certain tags are redefinable by CSS and some are not, so at least I could figure out if there's a fix by extending some class or other. On another note, I wish the HTML parser was inherited from the XML class so it could be extended. Built into the player as it is means rebuilding the parser from the ground up just to add functionality, and who's got time for that? __ Joseph Balderson, Flash Developer RIA Specialist http://www.joeflash.ca | 416-768-0987 Writing partner, Community MX | http://www.communitymx.com Développement Bilingue/Francophone disponible GregoryN wrote: Hello Joseph, I think default tags are closely connected to TextFormat properties.

[Flashcoders] error where drawRoundRect draws an ellipse instead
Recently I've had a problem using the Graphics.drawRoundRect method. The method takes at least 5 params, as you probably know: x, y, width, height, and a radius. Regardless of what the radius is set to, I'm encountering an error where if the height and width are both negative, flash draws an ellipse instead of a rounded rectangle. So, content.graphics.drawRoundRect(0, 0, 10, 30, 0); correctly draws a rectangle, while content.graphics.drawRoundRect(0, 0, -10, -30, 0); incorrectly draws an ellipse. Has anyone else encountered this situation? I've tried googling around for a while and checking through the documentation, and I can't figure out why this would happen. Flexbuilder doesn't allow me to debug into the drawRoundRect method, so I can't see what's going on internally. I have a few work-around in mind, but it doesn't seem like that should be necessary.

Re: [Flashcoders] setSelection() with TextInput?
Hi Haikal, I've just been doing exactly the same thing for the past day - beating my head against the wall for this same reason. I am not working with any components, but trying to use setSelection within a class to select text in a text field nested within a movieClip - and getting the same non-result. Infuriating. So, what I finally came up with that is a lame hack but seems to work is using a setInterval to call setSelection a tenth of a second later. So basically it's this: class myClass { ... (var declarations, constructor, etc.) ... private function onMouseUp ():Void { clearInterval(selectionRunner); selectionRunner = setInterval(this, selectString, 10); } private function selectString () { clearInterval(selectionRunner); Selection.setFocus(myField_txt); Selection.setSelection(0, myField_txt.text.length); } ... (mode methods, etc.) ... } If anyone else has a better solution (or even better, an explanation why this problem occurs in the first place) I'd love to hear it. Cheers, -DB Hi all. I've been beating my head against the wall for a bit, trying to get Selection.setSelection() to work inside a component. I've got this code, inside a component which happens to contain a TextInput: private function focusIn(){ trace(answer_ti.text + ] received focus); answer_ti.setFocus(); Selection.setSelection(0, answer_ti.text.length); } Which gets runs when answer_ti fires a focusIn event. This just doesn't seem to work... the trace statement comes up, but I can't see the selection change. Is there anything I've overlooked? I tried to use Delegate for event handling, but it didn't make a difference.

[Flashcoders] TextFormat Font Face = 'Wingdings' or 'Webdings'
I'm building a text editor in Flash as part of my application and came across a bit of a head scratcher for applying the Wingdings and Webdings fonts to an HTML Textfield. The following works fine: testFormat = new TextFormat(); testFormat.font = Arial test_txt.html = true; test_txt.htmlText = Hello; test_txt.setTextFormat(testFormat) However, I can't figure how to get Wingdings or Webdings to work in the 8 player. None of the following work when substituting for line 2 of the code above: testFormat.font = Wing Dings testFormat.font = WingDings testFormat.font = Wingdings testFormat.font = wingdings testFormat.font = Webdings testFormat.font = WebDings testFormat.font = Web dings testFormat.font = webdings ?? Even applying those fonts directly in the IDE to the textfield doesn't work. Does the HTML rendering/ TextFormat Class in the Flash 8 player not support Webdings or Wingdings? They are standard windows fonts, I have them installed as well as my users, and those faces work in normal HTML. What gives - or am I just using the wrong keywords for the face value of each font?

Re: [Flashcoders] Re: OOP methodology and flash. I'm loosing my faith...
I really like OOP, like Javascript style prototyping and look forward to use a combination of both in AS3. Having said that, I really was not impressed with AS2.0, mostly because of some of it's bugs that made it work in odd ways (mostly related to scoping issues, which are only partially solved with the Delegate Class). So for me I usually prefer either AS1.0, or (I imagine, since I haven't gotten around to it yet) AS 3.0. It's nice not to be locked into either OOP, or procedural, or typed or untyped. It seems like AS 3.0 will let me do the one I want to at the moment (without being buggy like AS 2.0). :-) Kevin N. James wrote: I think that the mixture of prototype based and class based OOP is really interesting. I think prototype based object orientated languages (such as AS1.0 and JavaScript) are really pretty cool and you can do amazing things with them. I read somewhere (sorry can't find link but it was on sitepoint.com written by Harry Fuecks) that one of the leading technical directors at google had produced a patterns book with most of the important patterns completely rewritten for prototype OO languages and many of them were far simpler and much less code. of course there is always the trade off with any dynamic language - the less errors can be caught at 'compile time' the more you have to test the code using 'unit testing' at run time. I take any comments like 'AS2 is crap' or 'PHP is crap' or whatever with a huge pinch of salt. Ask them 'Do you think people at Macromedia/Adobe don't know what they're doing?' usually these people have a computer science degree from Wolverhampton Poly or somesuch and couldn't get a job at Adobe or Macromedia if they promised to work for nothing and give foot massages to all the other developers whilst compiling.

Bad luck, there seems to be no way to send any data back to Flash onComplete. Last option: just send some extra field along with the file upload.

RE: [Flashcoders] Webservices and .NET array serialization
Hi Jason, No worries, I think I was too upset for building a similar sample and only after that to realize that it will never trace Array :) Zoli -Original Message- From: Merrill, Jason [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, August 26, 2006 3:03 AM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Webservices and .NET array serialization Zoli, I see now, yes, thanks. Sorry if that sounded terse, I didn't get what you meant to say at first. I got it working, I think initially my problem was due to the asynchronous nature of Webservices - once I fixed the method handlers properly, and waited for the load, it worked. The problem was compounded by the fact I am creating an RIA that edits another Flash presentation, both of which use Webservices and I needed to be sure they were both ready for the data. In sending data back, I also needed to be sure if I create new arrays of objects, the objects have all the same properties as well, even if they aren't used since the C# script expects it.

Re: [Flashcoders] setSelection() with TextInput?

So, what I finally came up with that is a lame hack but seems to work is using a setInterval to call setSelection a tenth of a second later. So basically it's this: class myClass { ...

This just doesn't seem to work... the trace statement comes up, but I can't see the selection change. Is there anything I've overlooked?

Re: [Flashcoders] jigsaw performance issue
It seems you're being unnecessarily complicated here. Why take the pieces, move piece A, remove piece A from the group and then move all the rest? I'd do it all in one loop. I thought I needed that approach because how would the group know what piece is being moved and how would the other pieces in the group know which to move from? If I just tell the group to move according to current mouse location, all the pieces in the group will position itself to the mouse coordinates, not by where it should be located by the moved piece.. If you have a better solution, I'm happy to hear from you :) As for the source of your problem, I'm guessing it's because the mouse moves while the loop is running. Try storing the _xmouse and _ymouse properties at the start of the loop. within or before the onEnterFrame event? If before, how would I tell the group the current position I want them to be? I mean, I think it's obvious I need to loop _xmouse _ymouse properties, right? If within, wouldn't it be too redundant to store _xmouse + _ymouse properties into a variable before processing it?

=== Joseph Balderson wrote: You may be right. It could also be a simple limitation of how the HTML parser links up to the CSS parser. Still, it would be good to know why certain tags are redefinable by CSS and some are not, so at least I could figure out if there's a fix by extending some class or other. As far as I can judge, all these are deep inside Flash Player - no way to fix, just work-around... On another note, I wish the HTML parser was inherited from the XML class so it could be extended. Built into the player as it is means rebuilding the parser from the ground up just to add functionality, and who's got time for that? Yeah, I wish the same.
