[Flashcoders] Preloaders and Classes/Audio ...

2007-01-31 Thread Stephen Ford
As I understand it, the best way (or one of) to have a preloader start at 0% 
when using classes is to uncheck 'export in first frame' for all clips 
associated with a class in your movie, and set the export classes frame (in 
publish settings) to a frame other than frame 1. Then dump all clips that use a 
class onto a frame somewhere that the timeline never reaches. Finally, create 
an AS1 preloader (i.e: a preloader that isn't a class). And your set.So my 
question is - whats the best way to do the same (i.e: preloader starting at 0%) 
when using Audio ?. Is it just a case of unchecking 'export in first frame' on 
all audio in your library, then create an audio clip with a bunch of keyframes, 
each audio file from your library assigned to a keyframe 
?Thanks.___

RE: [Flashcoders] Remove / Hide a video component

2007-01-31 Thread Paul Steven
Further to my last problem, I am also having a problem removing a custom UI
seekbar.

It seems that once the SeekBar instance has been associated with the
FLVPlayback instance, it will remain on screen even when I try to set its
visibility to false.

I am using the Flash 8 FLVPlayback Component and the FLV Playback Custom UI
SeekBar

I associate the two as follows:

my_FLVPlybk.seekBar = mySeekBar;

The seekbar functions correctly.

However if I navigate to a different section that has no video, the seekbar
remains on screen despite the fact I call this code:

if (Section_Data[currentSectionIndex].videoClip == none) {

 trace (Hide Video Elements);

 video_bg._visible = false;
 play_btn._visible = false;
 pause_btn._visible = false;
 mySeekBar._visible = false;
 my_FLVPlybk._visible = false;
 my_FLVPlybk.stop();

}

All the other elements are hiding correctly. My feeling is it has something
to do with the fact I am only hiding and stopping the actual video. However
I have not found out any other way of removing the video apart from this
way. Setting the contentPath= gave me an error.

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks

Paul

Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Remove / Hide a video component

Thanks - yeah you are right, I was mistaken that the video was still there
as I had a black overlay movie clip the same size as the video on a higher
layer.

However I notice that even when the video component is not visible, the
video still plays - so if a user navigates to a section with no video, I can
still hear the video playing. I guess I could just stop the video, but I
wondered if there is a better solution.

Thanks

I just did a quick test and dragged a component on stage and set
myvid._visible = false;  and it seemed to hide the component just fine

Failing that you could always change it's x or y position to somewhere off
stage like
myvid._x = -1000

 I have a flash 8 movie that is composed of 60 sections and hence there are

 Some of these sections include a video clip playing and I have used the
 Flash 8 FLVPlybk component.

 What I would like to do is have this on stage in the correct position and
 then hide or remove it for sections that do not have an associated video
 clip.

 I have tried the following with no joy where my_FLVPlybk is the instance
 name:

 my_FLVPlybk._visible = false;
 my_FLVPlybk.contentPath = ;

 I would appreciate any advice on how to remove the video for sections that
 do not have video.

 For sections that do have a video I am setting the content path as
 follows:

 my_FLVPlybk.contentPath = media/video/1_0.flv;

 Thanks in advance

Re: [Flashcoders] full screen window

2007-01-31 Thread Henry Cooke


if opening a fullscreen window on a click is possible then y can't on
onLoad event.



It's a matter of user experience. If they've clicked a link, you can be
pretty sure they wanted the popup. If you're doing it in an onLoad:
1) the user hasn't asked for it
2) it could be used to mislead the user (imagine opening a fullscreen window
which looked exactly like a maximised browser, but every click redirected to
evil spyware... it has been done, apparently). This is why the security
restrictions are in place.

The best user experience would be two windows: have a launch page
with a link that would open a new JavaScript child window, and tell
the user that the course is going to open in fullscreen. Then you can
control the size and properties of the window as much as you like,
and the user doesn't get the surprise of  his/her browser opening way
up unexpectedly.

OK

Re: [Flashcoders] Very large html document created by Flash 8 Publish

2007-01-31 Thread Jim Berkey
All of the text and links used in a swf are by default published  as comments 
in an html page outputted by the Flash IDE. The reason is to show that data to 
Google and other search engines. All of those comments may be deleted without 
any adverse effects to the swf or viewed page. And Google now claims that it 
can 'read/index' the text inside swf's anyway.
Also, many of us use Geoff's SWFObject js. to not only embed the swf more 
invisibly cross-browser, avoid the 'click to activate' in IE,  and it gives the 
opportunity to place whatever alternative content you wish in a div that is 
much more search engine friendly and offers graceful degrading.

RE: [Flashcoders] Very large html document created by Flash 8 Publish

2007-01-31 Thread Jim Berkey
The comments with text and url's have been inserted for a long time, usually 
there isn't such a large amount that one noticed it. Geoff's javascript 
solution has been generally regarded as the best/easiest to implement, fully 
xhtml compliant method to place swf's on pages for some time now.
http://adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/swfobject.html

I place all of the searchable content in the swfobject div, right after a 
comment about installing the needed flash player to see the Rich Internet 
Content, complete with lots of h1, h2, p text that search engines love. 
Browsers with the flash player installed never see it, only the actual swf. 
Browsers without a flash player installed see this text content instead of the 
swf.

[Flashcoders] load image from local machine into browser based swf?

2007-01-31 Thread Aaron Haines
I'm guessing that this isn't possible, but I would love someone to prove me
wrong ; )
 
Is there any way to allow the user to select an image file on their local
machine and then load the image directly into a SWF running in a browser
from a remote server without using any server-side script?
 
Any ideas much appreciated
Thanks

Where is the images folder relative to the location of the HTML that
enbeds the Flash?  Paths from the .swf are relative to the HTML, not to
the .swf.

Hey, I am looking for some US based or English speaking Flash
Programmers to help out with me on a small project. This is very small

information then I can add you to my contact page as a member in the
project and add your website to the affiliates list.Heres what I  
need...I need a Flash Media Player with the following features:

- A watermark that cannot be covered up in any mode (probably just a
20height x 300width area at the bottom of the program so I can add  
alogo at the bottom using an external file)- 3  
modes:- Music mode: Mode with just the basic controls for  
music player and the list of songs on the playlist  
- Preferable height x width would be 115-130 x 300-350-  
Video mode: Just the video on bottom with the basic controls on  
top. - Preferable height x width would be 450-500 x  
450-500

- Fullscreen mode: Music and Video, it will have the controls in
the top left corner, small, and the playlist or the video in the rest
of the screen - Preferable height x width would  
be... erm... Fullscreen? 100% x 100% xD- Compatible with M4A,  
MP3, WMA, M4V, AVI, and WMV audio and video files.- Compatible  
with M3U, XML(preferably), PLS, and any a short list of other  
common playlist files.

- The text in the flash variable f should be used to load the audio,
video, or playlist file using, say, ./load.php?file=$f or something.
- This will give me the possibility of using a PHP to my advantage
so I can use a MySQL DB to save video and music files and not worry
aboutthe downloading and distributing of songs and  
videos illegally.- And a few others.I

may or may not pay you, give me a wanted salary and I may give you
commission, but I do not have money atm to give away. It would be  
great

if someone could help me though, and I am looking for someone who can
voluntarily help me through out the project when I need help.Thanks  
for your time, if this is possilbe thanks ALOT!And if I do end up  
getting money off this I might be able to try and find a way to pay  
you.Of course, as I said, all credit goes to you. You will be added  
to my Contacts page as a member of the projecteven if you will have  
nothing to do with me after this. You can add any info you want on  
the contacts page,including, email, name, location, job, resume,

[Flashcoders] onLoadInit running when swf doesn't exist

2007-01-31 Thread Danny Kodicek
I've got some information that might either be contained in a swf file or an
xml file. What I'm doing (stripped down) is this:

function loadText():Void {
var tSwf:String = pPath + texts.swf;
var tContainer:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip(txt,
this.getNextHighestDepth());
var tLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
tLoader.addListener(this);
tLoader.loadClip(tSwf, tContainer);
}
function onLoadError(tContainer:MovieClip):Void {
tContainer.removeMovieClip();
importText(pPath + texts.xml);
}
function onLoadInit(tContainer:MovieClip):Void {
stuff here
}

So it tries to load in the .swf, and if this isn't found, it looks for the
XML. Running locally, this is working fine. But running online, it's
failing: despite the fact that the swf file doesn't exist, it's running
onLoadInit instead of onLoadError.

Anyone have any thoughts?

RE: [Flashcoders] path to upper level folder

2007-01-31 Thread Merrill, Jason
Sounds like you have three folders, not two.  

So if I understand your setup, you would access the images in the images
folder, which it sounds like is one level down from either folder1 or
folder2 -  like this:

loadMovie(../folder_with_images/theFile.jpg)

Ok, so is this what your directory structure looks like:

/PATH/folder_with_images/
/PATH/folder1
/PATH/folder2

?

If so, you would just use ../folder_with_images to access that
folder from the swf/html that's in either folder1 or folder2.

Re: [Flashcoders] onLoadInit running when swf doesn't exist

2007-01-31 Thread Andy Herrman

I've seen issues where a download fails (connection is cut off after
it started) where onLoadInit is called instead of onLoadError.  To
detect this I simply check the bytesLoaded versus bytesTotal on the
movie clip I was loading it into.

It's possible you're hitting the same situation (file doesn't exist,
but whatever is serving it is reporting that in a weird way) so it
might be worth doing that check in onLoadInit.

RE: [Flashcoders] onLoadInit running when swf doesn't exist

2007-01-31 Thread Alain Rousseau
 have you tried defining your listening function before your loadText
function ? Had similar problems when defining the event handlers after the
load() call. Also you could use LoadVars to test the existence of the file
firsthand.

import mx.utils.Delegate;

var fileExists:Boolean = false;
var testFile:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
testFile.onLoad = Delegate.create(this, testExist);

function testExist(success:Boolean) {
fileExists = success;
}

testFile.load(pPath + texts.swf);



Then load either the swf or the xml accordingly.

 Ok, so is this what your directory structure looks like:

 /PATH/folder_with_images/

 /PATH/folder2

 If so, you would just use ../folder_with_images to access that
 folder from the swf/html that's in either folder1 or folder2.

Is there any way to allow the user to select an image file on their  
local
machine and then load the image directly into a SWF running in a

from a remote server without using any server-side script?



I have a need to do this also - to alow a user to select one of their  
own images to use within a swf.


I haven't found any neat way but I've played around with a two-step  
approach as follows..


1. Use FileReference class to browse then upload a file to a remote  
server.
2. Use loadClip to then download that image from the remote site to  
the swf.


I've had it work occasionally, but haven't managed to get it reliable  
and in any case it's a real clunky approach.


If anyone has anything that really works I'd love to know about it.

[Flashcoders] flv playback stalling

2007-01-31 Thread Sam Thorne

Hi All,

I have an flv loading into an instance of flvPlayback, all of a  
sudden it has started freezing about 2 seconds into the playback, and  
just stalls.


The rest of the ui is still interactive, and I can use buttons to  
jump to other sections of the site etc. so it's not that flash is  
freezing up.
I can also open the flv in quicktime and it plays through fine, so  
the video appears to be ok.


The video is playing locally (it will be running from a cd) and is  
not the largest video we're using, so it doesn't seem to be any  
obvious issue.


Anyone got any clues to help me out?

Thanks a lot

My 0.02:

GoF makes me very sleepy - I find it very dry and the chapters very long 
winded.  (Sorry GoF'rs)


Wait's for lightning bolt from on high...

I have read it through once and understood some of it, but I have found 
snippets of information about patterns online which seem much clearer 
and less sleep inducing.


I liked Colin Moock's chapters on patterns from the Essential 
ActionScript 2 books because they taught by tutorials which work towards 
a finished example rather than by printing snippets of code.


I have learnt some C++, but don't code in it so I can sort of understand 
what is going on in GoF.  My AS is better and I find that doing the 
Moock examples helped me more.


I would be interested to know if Head First Design Patterns follows the 
same process as Moock - learn by doing.  I can handle that, although I 
will keep delving into GoF, keeping an oven timer handy to bring me back 
from the brink.

The first time I read the GoF book I thought my head was going to explode. A
few years later though when I'm referencing a pattern it's a lot more clear
now for some reason.

Also, It be nice if they revised using java or C# rather then C++.

Good man! Seriously, the world affords precious few opportunities to  
truly geek out on design patterns and such. Internet mailing lists

I have the Head First Design Patterns book, and I have to say I like  
it, in spite of its profusion of clip art and cheesy humor. Despite  
these stylistic affronts, it presents the material in a way that is  
easy to learn.


What's the consensus on the GoF book? I know it's a classic, but so  
is Ulysses and dog if I can read that. I don't have a CS background-- 
Flash is about as far as my programming expertise extends--so the  
Head First style works for me. Is GoF accessible for people who don't

// Add creamcheese to my bagel
myBagel = new CreamCheeseDecorator(myBagel);
trace (myBagel.getCalories()); // 300

 A decorator is meant to be dynamic. It adds responsibilities to an
object at
 run time.

 You take ComponentA and add methods to it on mouseclick, that's a
decorator.

 ComponentB is made up of ComponentC and ClassA, that's a composite.

 My implementation of a mixin which I borrowed from java is really just
using
 composites + interfaces to emulate multiple inheritance.

 Decorators and composites are similar however in that they are both
 structural patterns and define an interface for communicating between
parent
 and child components / classes.

in this case onObjectDrag
stopObjectDrag  triggered byobj_mc.onRelease

This looks more like the Broadcaster pattern or the Event Dispatcher
(a.k.a. Observer) pattern than Decorator.

(Also, it might be better to tie checkForSnap to mouseMove.)

Personally, I'm not a big fan of mix-ins because, well, they're kind
of sloppy. They involve tinkering with stuff that should be off-limits
(and is in AS3, I think). Using mix-ins, you could accidentally use a
non-function as a function. That can't happen if you stick to
strictly-typed programming.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flair Pattern bad mixins good (?)

2007-01-31 Thread Steven Sacks | BLITZ
Yeah, the GoF book is definitely like reading a calculus textbook.  It's
dry and to the point and the examples are in Smalltalk and some C++,
which means a lot of cross-referencing with google.  The concepts they
discuss and the examples they give are helpful to a point but code
examples you can't understand definitely get in the way.

GoF's is good reference book worth owning, and once you grasp design
patterns more firmly, you'll probably get more from it.  Head First is a
lot more accessible out the gate.

Re: [Flashcoders] flv playback stalling

Encoding maybe ?!, Have you updated your FLVPlayback component?  if it was

re-play!

Hi All,

I have an flv loading into an instance of flvPlayback, all of a
sudden it has started freezing about 2 seconds into the playback, and
just stalls.

The rest of the ui is still interactive, and I can use buttons to
jump to other sections of the site etc. so it's not that flash is
freezing up.
I can also open the flv in quicktime and it plays through fine, so
the video appears to be ok.

The video is playing locally (it will be running from a cd) and is
not the largest video we're using, so it doesn't seem to be any
obvious issue.

Anyone got any clues to help me out?

Thanks a lot

If you feel like this:

GoF makes me very sleepy - I find it very dry and the chapters very long

winded.  (Sorry GoF'rs)



then:

I would be interested to know if Head First Design Patterns follows the

same process as Moock - learn by doing.  I can handle that, although I
will keep delving into GoF, keeping an oven timer handy to bring me back
from the brink.



You will probably get a lot out of this book. The examples are (within
reason) interesting, and as with all the head first books and they've made a
very concerted effort to liven up what is to some a fairly dry topic.

I learnt a lot from this book; now if i need to research a particular
pattern, mostly i'll use the internet.

http://www.google.com/codesearch is great for examples.

Also would highly recommend ActionScript 3 Design Patterns by Joey Lott and
Danny Patterson, for any actionscript programmers wanting to understand
appliying patterns in flash/flex, it covers most of the main ones.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flair Pattern bad mixins good (?)

2007-01-31 Thread Holth, Daniel C.

I've actually been reading through Head First Design Patterns, and think
it's a great book!

It uses a lot of example code but they are well thought out and clearly
demonstrate the uses of the patterns.  Granted, many of their examples
are doing ridiculous things like simulating the actions of ducks,
turkeys and chickens through text output, there are other examples that
apply them to real-world scenarios.  What I really like about the book
is how the authors compare the different patterns head to head and
explain how one is different than another.

Another thing I like about the Head First Design Patterns book is that
it states a lot of the advantages and disadvantages of the patterns and
how to work around them.

I have another book on my desk, Design Patterns by Gamma, Helm, Johnson
and Vissides, that reads very much like a college text book - it has
built in book marking ribbons, which is nice.  Is this the one by the
GoF?

My 0.02:

GoF makes me very sleepy - I find it very dry and the chapters very long

winded.  (Sorry GoF'rs)

Wait's for lightning bolt from on high...

I have read it through once and understood some of it, but I have found
snippets of information about patterns online which seem much clearer
and less sleep inducing.

I liked Colin Moock's chapters on patterns from the Essential
ActionScript 2 books because they taught by tutorials which work towards

a finished example rather than by printing snippets of code.

I have learnt some C++, but don't code in it so I can sort of understand

what is going on in GoF.  My AS is better and I find that doing the
Moock examples helped me more.

I would be interested to know if Head First Design Patterns follows the
same process as Moock - learn by doing.  I can handle that, although I

will keep delving into GoF, keeping an oven timer handy to bring me back

from the brink.

 The first time I read the GoF book I thought my head was going to
explode. A
 few years later though when I'm referencing a pattern it's a lot more
clear
 now for some reason.

 Also, It be nice if they revised using java or C# rather then C++.

 Good man! Seriously, the world affords precious few opportunities to 
 truly geek out on design patterns and such. Internet mailing lists 
 excepted of course.

 I have the Head First Design Patterns book, and I have to say I like 
 it, in spite of its profusion of clip art and cheesy humor. Despite 
 these stylistic affronts, it presents the material in a way that is 
 easy to learn.

 What's the consensus on the GoF book? I know it's a classic, but so 
 is Ulysses and dog if I can read that. I don't have a CS background--
 Flash is about as far as my programming expertise extends--so the 
 Head First style works for me. Is GoF accessible for people who don't

 program in C++?

In addition the the books already mentioned, I highly recommend
Refactoring by Martin Fowler and Refactoring to Patterns by Kerievsky
(in that order). Together they show you how to adapt code you've
already created to design patterns without breaking it in the process.
The examples are in Java, which is very similar to ActionScript.

game.swf needs to do a callback.when I try this in the flash IDE
(CTRLENTER) it works and i get the following traces:


 this = _level0.questionBar_mc.game_mc.instance48
 this._parent = _level0.questionBar_mc.game_mc
 this._parent._parent = _level0.questionBar_mc

it is doing a callback by calling a function in questionBar_mc.

Now the weird partIf i publish to html and view it in firefox
(togehter with the lovely flashtracer tool from sephiroth.it)

I cant get to reach the function for the callback and i get this trace:


this = _level0.questionBar_mc.game_mc.instance50

 this._parent = _level0.questionBar_mc.game_mc
 this._parent._parent = undefined

I find it so weird it traces this and this._parent ok, but then  the
this._parent._parent trace undefined.

can anybody give any clues by looking at this code?

thanx a lot!

Wouter

[Flashcoders] Anybody live in or near Raleigh NC, and know Flex 2 / AS3?

2007-01-31 Thread ben gomez farrell

Hi guys, I manage the Raleigh Durham Adobe User Group.
I have a lack of presentations for our monthly meeting on Feb 13th.  So, 
seeing as how I've been having fun learning lots of Actionscript 3 and 
Apollo stuff lately, I thought I would do a meeting on the brand new 
Flash platform stuff.


In addition to Flash and Apollo, I'd love to have an introductory 
perspective on Flex 2...what it is, how to make a sample 
appwhatever.  I personally haven't been using Flex 2, so that's 
where I was hoping someone would volunteer.  Additionally, more 
perspectives on AS3 would be great as well!


So if you're in this area, and know this stuff, and want to show off 
some of your work, or just the topics in question, I'd love to have 
you.  I personally don't care if you want to put together a formal 
presentation, or just talk informally about this stuff based on your 
experiences.

The February 13th date is flexible, but that's what I'm shooting for.

Thanks everyone!

   and information then I can add you to my contact page as a member
   in the project and add your website to the affiliates list.Heres
   what I need...I need a Flash Media Player with the following features:
   - A watermark that cannot be covered up in any mode (probably just
   a 20height x 300width area at the bottom of the program so I can add
   alogo at the bottom using an external file)- 3
   modes:- Music mode: Mode with just the basic controls for
   music player and the list of songs on the playlist
   - Preferable height x width would be 115-130 x 300-350-
   Video mode: Just the video on bottom with the basic controls on
   top. - Preferable height x width would be 450-500 x
   450-500
   - Fullscreen mode: Music and Video, it will have the controls
   in the top left corner, small, and the playlist or the video in the
rest
   of the screen - Preferable height x width would
   be... erm... Fullscreen? 100% x 100% xD- Compatible with M4A,
   MP3, WMA, M4V, AVI, and WMV audio and video files.- Compatible
   with M3U, XML(preferably), PLS, and any a short list of other
   common playlist files.
   - The text in the flash variable f should be used to load the
   audio, video, or playlist file using, say, ./load.php?file=$f or
something.
   - This will give me the possibility of using a PHP to my
   advantage so I can use a MySQL DB to save video and music files and
not worry
   aboutthe downloading and distributing of songs and
   videos illegally.- And a few others.I
   may or may not pay you, give me a wanted salary and I may give you
   commission, but I do not have money atm to give away. It would be
   great if someone could help me though, and I am looking for
   someone who can voluntarily help me through out the project when I
   need help.Thanks for your time, if this is possilbe thanks
   ALOT!And if I do end up getting money off this I might be able to
   try and find a way to pay you.Of course, as I said, all credit
   goes to you. You will be added to my Contacts page as a member of
   the projecteven if you will have nothing to do with me after this.
   You can add any info you want on the contacts page,including,
   email, name, location, job, resume, etc...

[Flashcoders] needing sites built

2007-01-31 Thread TexasPartyPics
 
The first two sites are similar and may possibly be done as one  project.
 
I need a world-class professional site built for boudoir and portrait  
photography for a female photographer/ business partner. Samples of her work 
are  at 
_www.sensorydreams.com_ (http://www.sensorydreams.com/)  . I want a  near 
clone of _www.alisamurray.com_ (http://www.alisamurray.com)   except no intro 
needed, and only only 4 or 5 links. One of the links will  be to photo proofs. 
If 
you do not have coding skills for this part I can have  someone else build 
it. Basically need to host photo proofs that can be clicked  on and prints 
ordered. Payment processed through PayPal for this site, then the  email with 
the 
order info goes to an email address. An example of the proofing  system (more 
complex than needed) is at my old site at _www.texaspartypics.net_ 
(http://www.texaspartypics.net) . I need this  site as soon as possible.
 
 
I also need a new site for my event photography. It was 
_www.texaspartypics.net_ (http://www.texaspartypics.net/)  but I have sold  
that business. The new 
name is Houston Photo Works. Nearly the same as the above  site, with 
different colors. But if you are a great designer with ideas I would  gladly 
hear 
those. Needs a robust photo proof gallery that can host multiple  events for 
multiple groups. This can be the same as for the above site, but  payment would 
process through a cc merchant. Order info just goes to an  email address.
 
A third site is an online gallery and store for my wife, who is a  painter 
primarily of nudes and landscapes.
 
Please let me know if you are available and interested in building any or  
all of these sites. I can provide detailed information and content as  
requested.

Did you import the vector artwork from Illustrator by chance?
I had a similar problem when importing from illustrator.

If so, make sure nothing in illustrator is grouped, and convert everything
to fills. make sure there is no transparency.

both the swf and htm did not play on firefox.
