[Flashcoders] [OT] Flash Developer Needed for CD-ROM Project
Hello, disclaimerApologies in advance if job postings are frowned upon on this list. I noticed a few others, so I'm hoping it's okay./disclaimer ForgeFX http://www.forgefx.com/ , a San Francisco-based studio looking to create a long-term relationship with an independent Flash developer to partner with us to produce educational CDROM-based content for a major national publisher. We've worked with this publisher for more than three years and will have a large volume of recurring work for the right partner. The project work involves converting large volumes of textbook content into an interactive CD which presents the content in the form of screens that are similar in functionality to a PowerPoint presentation. Some screens have some basic interactivity or contain a link to video content. This is an off-site telecommuting position. QUALIFICATIONS * Ability to architect an efficient data driven framework and then use that framework to build hundreds of content screens. * Organized and detail oriented. Able to track and manage hundreds of asset files. * Enthusiastic self-starter. Able to work independently and efficiently. * Strong understanding of technical issues around building content for educational environments, including a mix of older Mac and PC machines. * Experience developing educational or edu-tainment content is a plus. * US West-coast candidates preferred. If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, and to give us a sense of your coding experience, please review and submit the results for this short programmer's test: http://www.forgefx.com/contractors/flash/test/ Thanks, Adam // Adam Q.

[Flashcoders] RE: Swf not loading at run time
Dave, I have the same issue with html page not loading my swf runtime objects. All my flash objects are stored in the same directory which is one level below my html directory. When my html page gets loaded, it seems to look for the runtime library file in the same directory as the html page and since it is not able to find it, it does not load any runtime objects. If I move the runtime library file to the html directory, everything works fine. However, from a file organization standpoint, I would like to have all my swf files in a different directory. Is there anyway I can do this? Thanks in advance Regards, Kannan http://www.solution-space.net Message: 6 Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2007 08:57:31 -0500 From: dave matthews [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Flashcoders] RE: Swf not loading at run time To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed hi JohnT, The path to loaded .swf files changes when accessing from an HTML page on the net - it is different than the IDE/authoring environment. For example, with all .swf's in the same folder, the path is direct, the main.swf loads peers from the same folder. When main.swf is embedded in a web page, main.swf loads from the web page's _files folder (adjust file explorer in windoze to show 'hidden' folders)... HTML pages with .swf content store assets in an accompanying 'webPageName_files' folder. So, main.swf must call to the web page's accompanying folder to find the to be loaded .swf files, since main.swf is now outside of the storage folder - the path from the HTML embedded main.swf would be: webPageName_files/to_be_loaded.swf The key is that even though all the .swf files are in the same folder on the server, the main.swf is actually outside of that folder in the HTML page when it is trying to call the content to load. Also, an earlier comment in this thread mentioned case ( capital vs small letters ) on many servers... it's true. hth, Dave_Matthews http://www.2GoTo.com -original--- Message: 10 Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2007 19:38:06 +1000 From: John Trentini [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Flashcoders] Swf not loading at run time Hi guys, I am going insane, please give me a hint, I have a swf embedded in a html doc (the intro). this when completed loads another swf (the main interface).

[Flashcoders] Flash Games With Joysticks
Hi, I was doing a search on how can we play the flash games on TV but didn't got great information.

[Flashcoders] setNewTextFormat
Hi All I have a loop that creates pages, creates textfields then adds text. Some of this text has font tags and some doesn't. I want to use a default textFormat so that an embedded font is used when no font is specified in the text: currentPage.createTextField(my_txt, 1, 5, 5, currentPage._width - 10, currentPage._height - 10); currentPage.my_txt.autoSize = false; currentPage.my_txt.multiline = true; currentPage.my_txt.wordWrap = true; currentPage.my_txt.selectable = false; currentPage.my_txt.embedFonts = true; currentPage.my_txt.html = true; var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); my_fmt.font = Arial; currentPage.my_txt.setNewTextFormat (my_fmt); currentPage.my_txt.htmlText = this.Model.pages[i].text; This works fine for text that has Arial specified in a font tag but for all the other pages which are just text no text appears (when tracing I see that Times is used which is not embedded). Why isn't this working? The setNewTextformat should change the default textformat for the field from then on? I am still getting Times though.

Re: [Flashcoders] setNewTextFormat
hey
one question...why are you mixing html and TextFormat? i try to use one of both.
where did you get the font for each textField from?
so you could do it on that way
var default_font=arial
var html_font=
if(text_html_font==undefined){
html_font=default_font
}
currentPage.my_txt.htmlText =font face='+html_font+'
this.Model.pages[i].text+/font;

Re: [Flashcoders] setNewTextFormat
Some of the text that is being pulled in from xml will have font tags
attached and some won't so I want to se thte default format.
I have got round it for now with an if statement so the default format is
only set if there is no font tag in the string.
However in the case of a string with only part of the text surrounded by a
font tag the rest of the string will still default to the times font which
won't appear.

[Flashcoders] FLV Streaming causes browser crash when closing a window
Hi coders, we are currently working on a media player for streaming video playback. The stream comes from a FMS. Our customers are working with Windows and every time they close the popup containing the player the browser crashes badly. We could reproduce this *only* on Windows for IE6, IE7, Firefox 1.5x and Firefox 2.x. This does not happen every time but often enough to be annoying (dependent on the player in one out of five tests). The critical moment seems to be the time when the stream is buffering before it is playing the first time. When the clip is running a crash seems to be less likely (1 out of 15 times). Even if the browser does not crash it takes a noticably long amount of time for the popup window to close. We even checked this behavior for other players, e.g. the popular flash media player (http://www.jeroenwijering.com) and with a simple test file built with MM components. The results have been the same. In fact our player seems to be the most stable. Here are two test pages that open a popup: flash media player: http://www.rocket54.de/player/test_fmp.php simple MM component test: http://www.rocket54.de/player/test_comp.php Using progressive FLV (not streamed) everything works fine – it seems to be a problem with/when streaming only. Could this be a problem with the FLVs or the FMS? Does anybody have a clue on this?

RE: [Flashcoders] setNewTextFormat
no danny. setNewTextFormat means that all NEW text in the textfield will be formed. setTextFormat is only once and not for new text. and if you do some new text via AS setNexTextFormat will work fine.. Not for me, no. I always have to run setTextFormat after setting with AS, whatever I do with setNewTextFormat.

Re: [Flashcoders] FLV Streaming causes browser crash when closing a window
for me its difficult to determine which port it is on as we open connections on rtmp 1935,443,80 and rtmpt 80 concurrently. it mostly occurs for me when i try to close a browser where none of connections have succeeded (obviously if one succeeds all the others get closed).

[Flashcoders] crash when using local shared object
Hi, some of our clients are experiencing a crash when data is saved to a local shared object. It seems to occur under the following circumstances: * the user has not previously allowed the player to save the data so a security box is displayed, asking for more priviliges * the user allows or disallows in doesnt matter * a flash ocx error occurs and the app crashes Happens on flash player 8 and ie 6 and 7. Any ideas? regards JC ___ 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] FLV Streaming causes browser crash when closing a window
Hi Johannes, maybe this is a help for you. We finally found out that the problem does not occur when the stream uses the FMS port 1935. As soon as we use the tunneled protocol (port 80) the browser crashes when closing the window. OS X seems to handle this pretty good but windows does not like it at all. It is very strange that Adobe does not seem to be aware of this behavior. Cheers Olaf On 6/12/07, Johannes Nel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: for me its difficult to determine which port it is on as we open connections on rtmp 1935,443,80 and rtmpt 80 concurrently. it mostly occurs for me when i try to close a browser where none of connections have succeeded (obviously if one succeeds all the others get closed).

Our customers are working with Windows and every time they close the popup containing the player the browser crashes badly. We could reproduce this *only* on Windows for IE6, IE7, Firefox 1.5x and Firefox 2.x. This does not happen every time but often enough to be annoying (dependent on the player in one out of five tests). The critical moment seems to be the time when the stream is buffering before it is playing the first time. When the clip is running a crash seems to be less likely (1 out of 15 times). Even if the browser does not crash it takes a noticably long amount of time for the popup window to close. We even checked this behavior for other players, e.g. the popular flash media player (http://www.jeroenwijering.com) and with a simple test file built with MM components. The results have been the same. In fact our player seems to be the most stable.

[Flashcoders] RE: Swf not loading at run time
hi Kannan, looks like Muzak posted a link to a relevant page from Adobe in this thread, deleted the email or would have included it - try the FlashCoder's archive maybe. The problem of paths in the IDE vs. full paths used on the web for embedded display in an HTML page is an old one. A useful fix is to use a variable in the authoring environment that contains the full path to the files as they will be set up on the server and splicing that variable to the local path (the local path being used during authoring work). Then, just before the final publishing of the main.swf for the HTML webpage - change the /:pathToServer variable from null/empty to the base URL - which is then used by all the loadMovie calls made by the mainParent.swf and it's loaded children.swf's during runtime. We are jumping from Flash4 (cell phones) to cs3 this month, so no as1/as2 examples... actually, no as3 examples yet either, but here is the code we put on the first frame of the main.swf- leaving the path empty/null for authoring then with the path variable set to the base URL at final publishing for the web: /: = a variable declaration and / was replaced by dots as of as1/flash5; /:pathToServer = http://www.2goto.com/;; then we use '/:internal_window_loadPath' for authoring: /:internal_window_loadPath = (pathToServer) + edictCON/sysEDICT/bwin.swf; 'bwin.swf' is an independent.swf deep in the folder structure that we loadMovie and place in the navigation structure, the 'bwin.swf'(internal_window) then loads or is loaded with outside content from the web or other folders on our server. hope that helps, Dave_Matthews http://www.2GoTo.com ...5 year old example... :) -- Message: 13 Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2007 12:12:07 +0530 From: Kannan Bharadwaj [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Flashcoders] RE: Swf not loading at run time To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Dave, I have the same issue with html page not loading my swf runtime objects. All my flash objects are stored in the same directory which is one level below my html directory. When my html page gets loaded, it seems to look for the runtime library file in the same directory as the html page and since it is not able to find it, it does not load any runtime objects. If I move the runtime library file to the html directory, everything works fine. However, from a file organization standpoint, I would like to have all my swf files in a different directory. Is there anyway I can do this? Thanks in advance Regards, Kannan http://www.solution-space.net Message: 6 Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2007 08:57:31 -0500 From: dave matthews [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Flashcoders] RE: Swf not loading at run time To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed hi JohnT, The path to loaded .swf files changes when accessing from an HTML page on the net - it is different than the IDE/authoring environment. For example, with all .swf's in the same folder, the path is direct, the main.swf loads peers from the same folder. When main.swf is embedded in a web page, main.swf loads from the web page's _files folder (adjust file explorer in windoze to show 'hidden' folders)... HTML pages with .swf content store assets in an accompanying 'webPageName_files' folder. So, main.swf must call to the web page's accompanying folder to find the to be loaded .swf files, since main.swf is now outside of the storage folder - the path from the HTML embedded main.swf would be: webPageName_files/to_be_loaded.swf The key is that even though all the .swf files are in the same folder on the server, the main.swf is actually outside of that folder in the HTML page when it is trying to call the content to load. Also, an earlier comment in this thread mentioned case ( capital vs small letters ) on many servers... it's true. hth, Dave_Matthews http://www.2GoTo.com -original--- Message: 10 Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2007 19:38:06 +1000 From: John Trentini [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Flashcoders] Swf not loading at run time Hi guys, I am going insane, please give me a hint, I have a swf embedded in a html doc (the intro). this when completed loads another swf (the main interface).

should, but when I try it online,
it just doesn´t work.
When I load images and they are not cached:
getBytesLoaded returns: undefined
getBytesTotal returns: undefined
But when they finish to load, and when they start to load when already
cached:

Re: [Flashcoders] flex question(xml based menu)
First off all:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/
Second, Flex is a different ballgame.
Flex has a number of components/controls/containers available that are not
available in Flash.
For displaying images, there's the Image component.
For displaying a number of thumbnails you could use a TileList component or a
Repeater component in combination with an Image
component etc..
If you want to build a menu, there's several options as well: linkbar,
buttonbar, etc..
And it also depends on whether this is an AS3 or MXML project.
So the answer to your question isn't that simple.
I suggest you start with going through the docs and having a look at the
available components.
regards,
Muzak

[Flashcoders] AS2: Multilanguage-Listener
Hi everybody
I’m working on a multilanguage configurator and want to update every
textareas, labels etc. by clicking on one of the available lang-buttons
(english, german, spanish ect.).
My configurator consists of different movieclips/layers of course. Now I’ve
tried to reach this by creating an evenlistener on those buttons, but
without success.
Code (layer: _level0):
var langListener:Object = new Object();
langListener.click = function (EvtObj:Object){
trace(it worked!);
};
// ie: english-button
_level0.langP_mc.en_btn.addEventListener(click, langListener);
Can anyone help?

Re: [Flashcoders] AS2: Multilanguage-Listener
hello :)
you can use my opensource framework and this extensions with the
localization model of ASGard (ext of VEGAS)
Page of the Framework project : http://code.google.com/p/vegas/
Install VEGAS and this extensions :
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/wiki/InstallVEGASwithSVN
Example to use the localization model in the svn of the project :
http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/asgard/system/
My event localization model is based on the W3C dom2/3 event model test
the Localization 02 - Eden.fla example.. i use Eden format to creates
external files to configurate my localizations. but you can use JSON with my
framework or use my framework and this implementation to use XML(in AS2 xml
is no speed... Eden more easy to use)
More information about Eden format : http://code.google.com/p/edenrr/
More information about JSON format : http://www.json.org/
I use eden to create my configuration file too...
http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/asgard/config/
You can use too my Opensource documentation framework AST'r :
http://code.google.com/p/astr/
AST'r is a little application framework to implement
config/localization/sounds/ in a application based with VEGAS.
EKA+ :)

RE: [Flashcoders] AS2: Multilanguage-Listener
You have to initialize the object before you can add listeners;
var listener:Object = new Object();
listener.click = function ( evt:Object)
{
trace(it worked!);
};
var obj:Object = new Object();
mx.events.EventDispatcher.initialize ( obj );
obj.addEventListener( click, listener );
obj.dispatchEvent ( {type:'click', target:obj } );

[Flashcoders] getBytes...() works only local, not online (except when imgs are cached)
Hi list,
I am facing a problem I can´t solve, and since now, thanks a lot for any
help.
I am loading images and preloading them...ok, nothing new.
For this, I am using loadClip and onLoadProgress to update their bytesLoaded
and bytesTotal, so I can preload them perfectly.
The amount of images to load, vary according to the clicked item.
When I try this local, works perfectly, the bytes amount are updated as it
should, but when I try it online,
it just doesn´t work.
When I load images and they are not cached:
getBytesLoaded returns: undefined
getBytesTotal returns: undefined
But when they finish to load, and when they start to load when already
cached:
getBytesLoaded returns: correct size
getBytesTotal returns: always 0
Here is the code:
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var listener:Object = new Object();
mcl.addListener(listener);
var totalLoaded = 0;
var loaderTime = 0;
function loadImagesToHolders() {
var totalToLoad = txtImagensServicosXML[dataID1][dataID2].length;
//totalImgsToLoad doubles cause it loads both mini and big images
var totalImgsToLoad = totalToLoad*2;
totalLoaded = 0;
listener.onLoadComplete = function(mc:MovieClip):Void {
totalLoaded++;
var id1 = mc._name.slice(5, 6);
var id2 = mc._name.slice(7, 8);
if (totalLoaded == totalImgsToLoad) {
clientes.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (barFullandLoaded == true) {
this.onEnterFrame = null;
barFullandLoaded = false;
if (processStopped == false) {
loader.bar.gotoAndStop(1);
clientesLoaded();
}
}
};
}
};
//waste of code, temp used cause of old problems
mcTotalLoaded = null;
mcTotalSize = null;
totalL = null;

mcTotalSize[mcID] = mc.getBytesTotal();
};
loaderTimer = getTimer();
loader.onEnterFrame = function() {
totalL = 0;
totalS = 0;
for (var i:Number = 0; itotalToLoad; i++) {
totalL += mcTotalLoaded[i];
totalS += mcTotalSize[i];
}
thePercent = Math.ceil((totalL/totalS)*100);
if (thePercent(loader.bar._currentframe*2)
loader.bar._currentframe50) {
loader.bar.play();
} else {
loader.bar.stop();
}
if (loader._visible == true) {
if (thePercent=100 loader.bar._currentframe == 50) {
barFullandLoaded = true;
loader.onEnterFrame = null;
}
} else {

[Flashcoders] PeelBack Ad Unit
Hi - Does anyone have any experience with peelback ad units? I've got one that appears correctly in Safari on the mac, and in Firefox on the pc, but in IE on the pc it won't appear at the correct level - allowing the layers that it should cover to show through. It seems like it would be a div-stylesheet type thing, but careful attention to grooming all the z-index values hasn't helped... perhaps it is a flash thing after all.

Betreff: RE: [Flashcoders] AS2: Multilanguage-Listener
You have to initialize the object before you can add listeners;
var listener:Object = new Object();
listener.click = function ( evt:Object)
{
trace(it worked!);
};
var obj:Object = new Object();
mx.events.EventDispatcher.initialize ( obj );
obj.addEventListener( click, listener );
obj.dispatchEvent ( {type:'click', target:obj } );

Subject: [Flashcoders] AS2: Multilanguage-Listener
Hi everybody
I'm working on a multilanguage configurator and want to update every
textareas, labels etc. by clicking on one of the available lang-buttons
(english, german, spanish ect.).
My configurator consists of different movieclips/layers of course. Now I've
tried to reach this by creating an evenlistener on those buttons, but
without success.
Code (layer: _level0):
var langListener:Object = new Object();
langListener.click = function (EvtObj:Object){
trace(it worked!);
};
// ie: english-button
_level0.langP_mc.en_btn.addEventListener(click, langListener);
Can anyone help?

RE: [Flashcoders] Cycle through XML nodes
As someone that doesn't read Flash help, will not do a Google search, will never register or participate on a Flash forum, will ask the same question enough times an re: has to be added to the beginning to keep it fresh, will always asks the list before logically thinking through any project, let's others do paid work for free, dials 911 about abandoned shopping carts, prefers the title L337 over n00b, and spams technical support for site checks...
