[Flashcoders] Q: Flash, digital audio and Slimserver
Hi I'm wondering if anyone has hijacked digital audiofrom their pc/macs using flash. I'd like to use some of the more sophisticated audio handling abilities in AS3, such as accessing sound frequencies. I'm using Slimserver, a Python/MYsql based music server that also acts as a 'front'end' to itunes, using itunes playlists and streaming digital audio out to a network music device, in this case the Squeezebox. http://www.slimdevices.com/ Someone has already created a Flex based front end to Slimserver called Slimfx http://solaristics.net/slimfx/ I simply want to hijack the digital audio data coming from Slimserver so I can use it to drive a visual Actionscript3 based dynamic display on my mac.

Re: [Flashcoders] export Bitmat with webcam
Have a look at the Matrix (flash.geom.Matrix) class and the Matrix.scale method.
Apply the scaling by providing a Matrix instance in the BitmapData.draw()

Should be some examples in the docs.

Re: [Flashcoders] Append variables to SWF server-side

RE: [Flashcoders] simulating airbrush + calligraphy brush
Hi all, Is there a way to simulate how an airbrush tool or a calligraphy brush works using Flash Drawing API? I'm talking about drawing tools you see in MS-Paint, where an airbrush produces random dots/circles near the mouse cursor while calligraphy brush is like a regular brush but the tip is oval. I know that using capsStyle argument in lineStyle method can produce rounded or squared tip, but no oval. Does anyone know how to create a custom tip (capsStyle) for lineStyle? If the regular Drawing API isn't sufficient, can anyone give any ideas of other ways to achieve this? I was thinking of looping an attachMovie method during onEnterFrame/onMouseDown to place custom shaped MCs. Is this a good idea to go with? This sounds like the kind of thing that would be a bad idea with vectors. If you're doing that style of drawing you're probably better off working with copyPixels and BitmapData objects. With all those dots you might find things chugging.

Re: [Flashcoders] MovieClipLoader woes
Hi Dan (and Muzak), I've posted my solution to the problem, but am not entirely sure that it made the list given the errors we've been having the last few days. In short, it turned out to be a bug (or 'feature') in loadMovie() - if you have the same instance name repeatedly in the hierarchy of your clip (e.g. _level0.inst0.inst0.myclip) then loadMovie() _can_ fail (not always, oddly). Ensuring that all names in the chain were unique (_level0.inst0.inst1.myclip) solved the problem. A more complete explanation is here: http://wildwinter.blogspot.com/2007/02/irritating-bugs-no-1679a-loadmovie-and.html Thanks for the help, Ian On 2/27/07, Holth, Daniel C.

The situation: - Flash 8, running in IDE or as local projector (on Win XP) - A whole pile of successful MovieClipLoader calls have been made (probably 50 or so by this stage), _including_ the very same bit of code which later fails. - Nothing else is loading/streaming at the same time. - Three calls (in rapid succession) are made to a function which does the following: - creates a new MovieClipLoader - creates a new MovieClip (at a new depth) - assigns a new listener for the MovieClipLoader - starts loading a .swf into the clip. The first two times, it works perfectly. The third time, no events are fired and the clip apparently doesn't load. On each occasion, we wait for the previous load to successfully complete first (onLoadInit) before we call the function again. Completely repeatable each time. The loaded .swf isn't doing anything odd (it contains no code whatsoever). *sigh* Any ideas? Or robust alternatives to MovieClipLoader? (Bokel's LoaderClass is a little heavyweight for what I want to do, but I might take a look at it).

Hi folks, I just thought I'd share the solution to this - a very irritating AS2 bug/feature that took me an age to track down. If you have a bunch of nested movieclips and any of them (down the chain) share a name, such as: _level0.nav1.nav.mod0.inst0.clip1.inst0.inst0.inst1.res17 (I know, not terribly readable, but autogenerated by our clip-creation code. Note all the 'inst0's) then loadMovie() (and by extension, MovieClipLoader) will silently fail. MovieClipLoader will trigger no listener events at all, not even an error. And whereas loadMovie() will trace a semi-useful error (that it can't find the clip), MovieClipLoader won't trace anything at all. Changing it to: _level0.nav1.nav.mod0.inst0.clip1.inst1.inst2.inst1.res17 (i.e. getting rid of all the 'inst0' duplicates) solves the problem. Flash itself can cope quite happily with clips named the same thing in a clip chain. It only falls over when loading into one of the children.

RE: [Flashcoders] simulating airbrush + calligraphy brush
This may actually sort itself out - if you're recording the vector as it's drawn (brush mode), a quick stroke will yield less points than a slow stroke - a slow stroke would yield a lot of clustered points which will translate to a higher accumulation of 'paint' in the given area.

Unfortunately swf studio has not been updated for vista yet. As a result you have to have administrator rights to run the flash app. Even more annoying is the fact that if you just run the application by double-clicking the exe (or through an autorun file on a CD-ROM) the exe won't start but will still be listed in the task manager. This means that you manually have to quit the application in the task manager before you can start the exe as an administrator. The worst thing about this whole issue is that Microsoft didn't think it was necessary to inform the user in any way when he tries to run a legacy exe. No error message - nothing. The app just won't start. So my question is: Are there any workarounds yet? Do other swf wrapper tools already work with vista?

i have a Sound object called mySound
i set it to load an mp3 and set is streaming to true as follow:
mySound.load(file.mp3, true);
so it plays and buffers the mp3 untill the load is complete.
Actually i need my stop button to stop the song and to stop it
buffering!!!
as in buffering will let the movie itself load the external swfs
very
slowly. is there something that pauses streaming i can use in
this case
Thanks so much

RE: [Flashcoders] ColorMatrix
Hi Misa,
My EasyTween class has functionality to tween color tints the way you're
wanting.
A description of use is found here:
http://blog.dcholth.com/2007/02/23/easytween-explained/
And you can download the EasyTween.as file here:
http://blog.dcholth.com/downloads/
The only problem with tweening colors, is you may notice it tweens
through what looks like random colors before it gets to the one you
want. This will depend on which color your tweening to and from because
its actually tweening the individual hex values of the color. Tweening
from the original tint (which is none) of the MovieClip shouldn't have
this problem and should go right to the color you want.
If you end up using it, please let me know your thoughts on it, as
you'll probably be the first person to use it besides me :)
Hope it helps!

Subject: [Flashcoders] ColorMatrix
Hello flash coders,
I need some help with color transformations. I want to change dynamicly
the hue of a MC with a transition/tween, something like fading from one
image to another with different colors. I tried both G. Skinner's and M.
Klingman's colorMatrix class, but the tweening they use is bound to some
object. In G.S's demo there's a scroll bar, and in M.K's he uses two
images. I want to use one of their classes but be able to transform the
color of one MC just with a function: onSomeEvent ... { tweenHue for
myMC from thisHUE to newHUE }.
Thanks in advance

Re: [Flashcoders] path/attachMovie problem
Hi
In order to reference movieclips using an index you would need to
keep them in an array. Alternatively if you don't need to reference
them by name, you can use the return value of attachMovie() to keep a
reference:
for () {
...
var mc:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie(butTemp,but+i,i+50);
mc.id=i;
mc.but_txt.text = songname[i];
mc.band_txt.text = songband[i];
mc.info.contentMain.info_txt.text = songinfo[i];
mc.rotate.aside.loadMovie(aside[i],1);
...
}
This works no matter where you attach the movieclip as 'mc' is a
reference to it.

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] simulating airbrush + calligraphy brush
apply the airbrush effect in a bitmap along the path - this way you
can assign different brushes to the path after it's been
drawn, undo
points etc.
mmm.. love the idea... but, what do you mean by placing
bitmaps along a path? did you mean it will also stretch or
just show for every vertex of the path? can you give me
pseudo-code of how to do this?
Depends how you want to do it, but the simplest is to work with a spline.
One method is to take one brush point every few moments and turn this path
into a Catmull-Rom spline. Then you can draw as many points along the spline
as you like. A quick guide to catmull rom splines is here:
http://www.mvps.org/directx/articles/catmull/, but in essence:
function catmullPoint (p0, p1, p2, p3, t) {
// where p0 to p3 are points, and t is the fraction of the distance between
p1 and p2
return 0.5 * (2*p1 + t*(p2 - p0) + t*t*(2*p0 - 5*p1 + 4*p2 - p3) +
t*t*t*(-p0 + 3*p1 - 3*p2 + p3))
}
So if you have a list of points p0, p1, ... , pN, then you can draw as many
points along the spline as you like.
Flash uses quadratic bezier curves in the drawing API and cubic beziers in
the actual application - a cubic bezier and a Catmull-Rom spline are
essentially the same thing but with different parameterizations.

Re: [Flashcoders] simulating airbrush + calligraphy brush
yeah.. i usually just use lineTo in a loop while the mouse is pressed.. no
curveTo as i thought it's unnecessary.
so I just need to place the bitmaps after the lineTo? is that all? if I need
to stretch the bitmap, say from the last point to the current, is that
possible? or by just placing the bitmaps per point will suffice?

RE: [Flashcoders] simulating airbrush + calligraphy brush
Just want to be clear - you're not placing bitmaps - but writing bitmap
data, so once the line is drawn (you'd represent it somehow as a vector
preview) you create some bitmapData which encompasses the line and brush
width, then you'd copy from your brush bitmap into the new bitmap along
the length of the spline.
Using this technique you could vary things like scatter, velocity,
wetness, pressure etc according to how fast the stroke was brushed.

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] simulating airbrush + calligraphy brush
yeah.. i usually just use lineTo in a loop while the mouse is
pressed.. no curveTo as i thought it's unnecessary.
so I just need to place the bitmaps after the lineTo? is that
all? if I need to stretch the bitmap, say from the last point
to the current, is that possible? or by just placing the
bitmaps per point will suffice?

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] simulating airbrush + calligraphy brush
apply the airbrush effect in a bitmap along the path - this way
you can assign different brushes to the path after it's been
drawn, undo
points etc.
mmm.. love the idea... but, what do you mean by placing bitmaps
along a path? did you mean it will also stretch or just show for
every vertex of the path? can you give me pseudo-code of
how to do
this?
Depends how you want to do it, but the simplest is to work
with a spline.
One method is to take one brush point every few moments and
turn this
path into a Catmull-Rom spline. Then you can draw as many
points along
the spline as you like. A quick guide to catmull rom
splines is here:
http://www.mvps.org/directx/articles/catmull/, but in essence:
function catmullPoint (p0, p1, p2, p3, t) { // where p0 to p3 are
points, and t is the fraction of the distance between
p1 and p2
return 0.5 * (2*p1 + t*(p2 - p0) + t*t*(2*p0 - 5*p1 + 4*p2 - p3) +
t*t*t*(-p0 + 3*p1 - 3*p2 + p3)) }
So if you have a list of points p0, p1, ... , pN, then you
can draw as
many points along the spline as you like.
Flash uses quadratic bezier curves in the drawing API and cubic
beziers in the actual application - a cubic bezier and a
Catmull-Rom
spline are essentially the same thing but with different
parameterizations.

RE: [Flashcoders] Beginners/Designers Actionscript
Yes - the Friends of Ed book is probably better, but if you don't have a good enough handle on AS 1, you'll be even more confused by AS 2. At some point, the person in question just needs to jump off the dock and start swimming. :) I have found the OOP aspects of AS2 learnable only by repeated experience - experimenting, trying again, reading, trying some more, etc. The syntax of AS2 is the easy part - the design pattern is what takes time to learn. Focus on the syntax of AS2 (class strucutre, public/private/static, typecasting) and then the actual implementation of practical use just takes practice.

so it plays and buffers the mp3 untill the load is complete.
Actually i need my stop button to stop the song and to stop it

as in buffering will let the movie itself load the external swfs

I think we're all aware by now that the list has problems. I'm sure Dave is looking into the matter and the list will be fixed at some point. Sending me too or unsubscribe me messages is not gonna speed up the fixing process. Instead of whining about it you could simply look into setting up a filter for your mail client. I've already posted some url's that explain how to do that if you don't know how to.. And there's always google.. I myself (and I'm sure many others) am subscibed to about 20 mailing lists and I receive about 30 to 4 emails a month. None of those end up in my inbox. Each mail from this list has [Flashcoders] in the subject line. All you have to do is set up a filter for that and have the mail sent to a seperate folder or whatever else you wanna do with it (block, delete, leave on server, etc..). regards, Muzak - Original Message - From: Kristal Dale [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Sent: Wednesday, February 28, 2007 5:21 PM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Subscription problems Again, I too have tried to unsubscribe (5+ times), no confirmation email is sent.

[Flashcoders] CellRenderer, Datagrid component updating
I have the followinng setup: comboBoxA, a dataGrid, and a cellrenderer in the datagrid which renders comboboxB in each cell. ComboboxA switches the dataprovider for the datagrid, thus changing the datagrid. It's all working fine, except that I cannot seem to get the comboBox within the datagrid to change it's selected index according to the value in the new dataProvider in the datagrid. I have followed the Adobe script examples for (their ComboBoxCell.as file), but the combobox's selectedIndex in the cell remains the same even though the dataprovider changes. It does however work fine for other cellRenderers in the datagrid, like some textInputs. I would ask the question first before posting a lot of code - anyone have any ideas?

Re: [Flashcoders] Subscription problems
Put a filter in your e-mail client to dump all of the Flashcoders e-mail into a separate folder and one a month delete the contents until you can unsubscribe. I subscribe to quite a few lists and everything gets sorted on its way in so that I can deal with each list in its turn. If your e-mail does not support filters, get Thunderbird. No one wants to pause the list for a few people who are having trouble organizing their incoming e-mail. This list is the lifeblood of anyone serious about coding in ActionScript (unless you would like to answer all of the questions while the list is paused) Ron Chanda Dharap wrote: Hate to add to the spam, but please, I've been doing nothing but deleting my inbox since last night.

Re: [Flashcoders] path/attachMovie problem
thanks alot!
I think this will help..
Le 28 févr. 07 à 16:46, Chris Bowley a écrit :
Hi
In order to reference movieclips using an index you would need to
keep them in an array. Alternatively if you don't need to reference
them by name, you can use the return value of attachMovie() to keep a
reference:
for () {
...
var mc:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie(butTemp,but+i,i+50);
mc.id=i;
mc.but_txt.text = songname[i];
mc.band_txt.text = songband[i];
mc.info.contentMain.info_txt.text = songinfo[i];
mc.rotate.aside.loadMovie(aside[i],1);
...
}
This works no matter where you attach the movieclip as 'mc' is a
reference to it.

[Flashcoders] Editing .as files with vim editor (non-english chars broken)
Hello, is anybody using the Vim editor on Windows for editing ActionsScript files?

The russian text is displayed twice as long as it should be and there are repeatable P and C characters - which is what I often see in other programs, which mistake Unicode text by the Windows-1251 text.

Re: [Flashcoders] simulating airbrush + calligraphy brush
If you want to simulate a painting application you have to be mindful of how artists work. You WILL have ten of thousands of strokes being generated which will at some point (depending on the users system) slow down the flash player. Many artists do lots of sketch style mouse actions where they may draw 500 tiny lines just to outline their drawing, and then another 5000 lines filling in an area with shading and color. Placing these thousands of bitmaps will slow things down more so than using a more efficient method of modifying bitmap data. On 2/28/07, Guntur N.

[Flashcoders] Dragging a clip gives erratic ._x numbers
Heya folks, This is baffling me (and making me very annoyed), and I haven't found an answer elsewhere, so here goes... I have a main movie with a custom drag scrubber control. At the core of my app (Flash 8 Pro) is this scrubber that needs to simply return its position so I can use it to display the proper frame of a movie clip (with many frames). Problem is that dragging the scrubber in one direction very slowly will frequently get erratic and NOT just increase or decrease relevant to the drag direction. Now, I originally thought it could be poor rounding math code on my part, but I finally put a text counter on the screen that simply displays the value of mcTheMovieClip._x which is the dragged clip. Here's what I mean by erratic: Dragging from left to right, ._x reports: ..101, 102, 101, 102, 103, 104, .. What the friggin' poo?? What exactly causes a dragged movie clip to jump back/forth a pixel or two? It's making an accurate, consistently one-directional drag behavior to be roughly impossible! I'm miffed, but hopefully somebody has a clue on this and would be so kind as to throw down some helpful bits. Thanks!

Re: [Flashcoders] Skewing MovieClip??
Skewing isn't available but is possible. In order to skew a clip (skewClip) the clip needs to be nested inside another movie clip (containerClip). To skew - rotate both skewClip and containerClip in opposite directions and modify either the _xscale or _yscale of containerClip... the result s a skewed skewClip. I'm not certain of the math to make this readily usable but this technique should offer a start.

Re: [Flashcoders] simulating airbrush + calligraphy brush
What about creating a function that acts as sort of a History (like the way Photoshop does) - only, in addition to recording each action the artist performs on his project, it also does the following: The application creates a TEMP folder for each new project. Inside each project folder, a log file (the Historical action archive) is created, which keeps the User's last X number of actions, which can be backed out of (undone), to some set limit (The Undo Threshold). As the Undo Threshold is reached, the application fires off a Screen Capture of whatever is currently on the Canvas (stage, paper, background, or whatever) and stores it, along with the historical information, in the project folder. (the images could even be constantly replaced, as the threshold is reached, so it doesn't gobble up disk space) As the User continues to work, the History Log keeps track of every action that is taken. Within a span of 100 actions, for example, 75 can actually be undone. With every 20 - 25 actions taken, the application does an automatic Screen Capture. Once the Undo threshold is reached, the canvas (the bottom-most layer?) is [hopefully] inperceptively replaced with the Screen Capture (.jpeg image ? or whatever's clever) from a hundred moves back. Did that make any sense??? Hey, what do you want for a 10-minute [possible] solution?! :-P .

You would need access to the unmanaged code area (for other readers).

Re: [Flashcoders] Dragging a clip gives erratic ._x numbers

I have a main movie with a custom drag scrubber control. At the core of my app (Flash 8 Pro) is this scrubber that needs to simply return its position so I can use it to display the proper frame of a movie clip (with many frames). Problem is that dragging the scrubber in one direction very slowly will frequently get erratic and NOT just increase or decrease relevant to the drag direction.

[Flashcoders] Flash 9 AS3 Resource Management
Hi everyone, Does anyone have some tips or tutorials on how to handle resources and performance issues in flash. I have more of an application than a flash file and things start to slow down after a while. I'm thinking the garbage collection mechanism in flash isn't deleting the objects which aren't needed anymore. I was able to improve performance somewhat by overriding addEventListener to put the event listener into an array of objects which I then reference values from. When a SuperMovieClip object is removed from the stage an event listener for that event goes through the array and removes each of the listeners. If it is added to the stage again all the listeners are re-added from the array. Theres some other slow downs I can't account for. It would be nice if there was a debugging tool or something so I could see what types of objects are in memory at any time so I can see whats not getting deleted and what keeps taking up resources. I am especially interested in however strategies for dealing with the issues of instantiation, deletion, events, for resource optimization.

Re: [Flashcoders] Dragging a clip gives erratic ._x numbers
Perhaps it's doing some rounding because your mouse is sitting on half pixels and it's not noticeable to the eye (if that's even possible). Have you tried putting a Math.ceil around the _x values to see if it helps always round the value up?

Re: [Flashcoders] Right Click disabling
Hi Andy,
Actually there is a way, though I think it's a metaphysical law that
somebody has to say it's impossible before an answer appears.
I had to do this so that folk could copy paste with ctrl-c ctrl-v and have
the text modified before put in atext field but not allow a
right-click-paste into the text field that could mess up the rich text
properties otherwise.
I only did it for one textfield, though I don't see any reason why you
wouldn't be able to apply the same idea everywhere.
The basic idea is that you create a custom right click menu and trap it's
onSelect event. When that event gets triggered, you create an editable
textfield and set the focus to it, since the object that received the event
no longer has focus, the right click menu goes away.
It was a while ago but I believe this was the snippet that did the trick.
public function onLoad() {
var menu_cm:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
menu_cm.hideBuiltInItems();
menu_cm.onSelect = function(item:Object,item_menu:Object){
GhostObj.createTextField(Paste_txt, 1, 0, 0, 10, 20);
GhostObj.Paste_txt.type = input;
Selection.setFocus(eval(GhostObj.Paste_txt));
}
Capture_txt.menu = menu_cm;
...
Let me know if it works for you,
-Cort

Hi,

I need to turn off the right click menu completely in a swf.
I don't want it to display custom stuff (I can do that), I want it to
detect
a right click but not show the menu. This can only be in a swf, not an

so the compilers don't work.
Please help - this has been driving me wild!

RE: [Flashcoders] Flash 9 AS3 Resource Management
I'd be interested in tools for monitoring this too. To avoid holding onto objects through addEventListener, have you tried the weak reference option? We've been using that increasingly as the default way to add listeners, so objects don't hang around when we think we're finished with them.

[Flashcoders] Getting frustrated. regarding set Interval, and for loop.
Let me explain the problem I am having and then I will send you some code. I
want to load up images in a slide show with set interval, with the images being
called image1 image2 image 3 etc. I want to be coding a dynamic slide show so
that if I change the images I can just replace the mc images.
here is the code I am working on, I am a little new to setInterval (completely
new to that function actually) - I do understand the basic syntax,
setInterval( function (){ //entire function here;},1000);
But I don't know how to run a for loop inside it and pass a variable to it. (I
am a newbie).
function loadImages(){//Ihave this here so I can run an external for
loop.
for(i=1;i6;i++){
setInterval(function(){ //set interval and begins anonymous function
i.e function() -no name
attachMovie(image+i,image+i,41); //trying to attach the images,
image1 - image5
image = eval(image+i);//instance assigned to
variable 'image'
image._x = ((Stage.width / 2)-(image._width/2)); //positioning
image._y = (yFactor);//positioning
oldwidth = image._width; //saving
dimensions for resizing formula
oldheight = image._height;//saving
dimensions for resizing formula
image._height = yheight; //image height
set to variable
image._width = ((oldwidth*yheight)/oldheight); //image width set to
proportions of original
},1000);
//interval to 1 sec. 1000 milliseconds
}//end
for loop
} //end container
function
I am trying to set the images up for a second and then have them switch.
Help me out if you you know a solution. Or even if you see some obvious
errors. Like I said I am new with the set interval. by the way if you like
that little resizing technique, you can use it. Thank you.
Looking forward to a response on this one.
