[Flashcoders] Anyone know of good mac app that will trace outside of Flash
Oops, sorry pressed send too quick on that one, here's the complete message Hiya, I have been using XTrace (http://mabblog.com/xtrace.html) and it is a great application as it allows me to view my trace messages with different colours outside of the Flash IDE. My problem is that after a short while the window disappears so I can't reference my trace messages while I edit my code in Textmate. Does anyone know of another tracing app that would float above all apps as XTrace does and woul allow me to look over trace messages in this way? Cheers!

[Flashcoders] AS3 Function question
Hi list, I have a function in AS3, and it takes two arguments, but sometimes i want it to have 1 argument. But when i run it now it errors: 1136: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected 2. How do i do this? keep one arguments standard in the function brackets and check for the second argument with the arguments array like in AS2? Help would be advised, Thanks, Sidney ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Anyone know of good mac app that will trace outside of Flash
Hi Ali, I use XRAY from Blitz (http://osflash.org/xray) its is a very good debug / logger tool. and it just uses a SWF that you run.

RE: [Flashcoders] AS3 Function question
Hi,
maybe is possible solution via ...(rest) parameter?
function methodName (...argumentsArray) {
}
Example:
public function addArticle(name, ...attribs) {
}
And method invocation:
addArticle(article_1, argument_2, argument_3, argument_4);

[Flashcoders] Flash player 9.0.47 serious issue (maybe some 9 versions before too)
I find the following:
When following the methods described by Daryl Theo (at
http://darylteo.com/blog/2007/11/16/abstracting-assets-from-actionscript-in-as30-asset-libraries/
)
to duplicate DisplayObjects works fine in flash player 9.0.115 (latest). In
version 9.0.47 it repeatedly crashes the browser (both firefox in ie)... I
wonder
if anyone else has this problem. To reproduce, simple instal 9.0.47, follow
the steps by Daryl, and voila, a browser crash.
In short, make an swf, with document class Circle
then load in your main swf, with the following code in the onComplete
handler;
private function onComplete(e:Event) {
var appDomain:ApplicationDomain = e.target.applicationDomain;
var skinClass:Class = appDomain.getDefinition
(getQualifiedClassName(e.target.loader.content)) as Class;
trace(CLASS: + skinClass);
//var tmp:* = new skinClass(); - uncommenting this line
crashes the browser
}
Any ideas, or other ideas to clone a displayobject?

RE: [Flashcoders] multiple TextFormats in one TextField
Thanks Gregory. That's exactly what I did and it worked perfectly. - MM 1) in a loop (or in any other way), you create the resulting text with default formatting. 2) at the same time, you record (in arrays) - start/end positions of each string - its TextFormat 3) When the result text is ready, just apply TextFormats using recorded positions. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash player 9.0.47 serious issue (maybe some 9 versions before too)
Actually, the trace doesn't really matter. The point is, flash player of
that version keeps crashing whenever I try to get a class definition from an
external SWF, and after this instantiating that class.
the line producing the crash is then this one; var tmp:* = new skinClass();
On Feb 7, 2008 5:49 PM, Kenneth Kawamoto [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Oops you said Circle was the Document class.
var appDomain:ApplicationDomain = e.target.applicationDomain;
var skinClass:Class =
appDomain.getDefinition(getQualifiedClassName(e.target.content)) as Class;
trace(skinClass: + skinClass);
then it's the same as yours basically. Sorry about the noise!

wonder
if anyone else has this problem. To reproduce, simple instal 9.0.47,

In short, make an swf, with document class Circle
then load in your main swf, with the following code in the onComplete

private function onComplete(e:Event) {

var skinClass:Class = appDomain.getDefinition

crashes the browser

Any ideas, or other ideas to clone a displayobject?

var mcB:MovieClip = this.attachMovie ( myMovie, mcB,

// Quick way of grabbing the initial settings from another clip
// NOTE: These will just be set when the clip is instantiated - not ideal
for getter / setter information

Re: [Flashcoders] MS Access?
It's ODBC, not OBDC (I always spell that wrong!!!) 2008/2/7, Juan Pablo Califano [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Dave, in one or two really old, small and low traffic sites, I've seen Access used as the DD.BB (along with classic ASP). Yes, it's SQL capable, you can connect to it through an OBDC driver. But it really sucks... There are OBDC drivers for PHP, so I guess it should be possible to connect to an Access DD.BB. It'll probably be slow and won't be able to handle much traffic, but it should be possible. If your client insist on using Access, maybe it's because they already have stuff developed for Access (tables with lots of rows, views, not sure if there are stored procedures in Access) and they're concerned about the upgrading overhead. Maybe upgrading to MS SQL Server is a more suitable option in that scenario -- not that I've tried that myself, but I've been told that it's easy and sounds reasonable considering both are MS products... On the other hand, I once did an upgrade from MS Access to MySql and it wasn't precisely smooth (in part it might just have been that I didn't / don't know much about MS Access). Hope that helps.

Re: [Flashcoders] How did they do it?? A particular flash site.
Hi, There was a blog article on this - search in Google or something, I think they rendered all the animations out from 3D, but that's all I can remember. Bit arrogant that it won't run and complains about my screen resolution not being 1024 x 768 - dur, it is but Firefox is running with tabs open - although they are designers so we may be able to forgive their ignorance of coders who squeeze their machines for years after the upgrade by dates :) Glen Vlado Krempl wrote: Hello everyone, There is a great flash site that I absolutely love, and just wanted your opinion on how they layed it out.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash player 9.0.47 serious issue (maybe some 9 versions before too)
I'm on a Mac at the moment and I can verify this crashes both Firefox
and Safari immediately. It would be interesting to find out why, but as
this is the old player we are talking about, Adobe won't be looking into.
Since it works on Moviestar (works on both PC/Mac), can you just check
the player version installed with SWFObject and do the ExpressInstall if
Moviestar is not present? (The last time I checked, the ExpressInstall
was not working on Mac at all though, but that's another matter...)

Actually, the trace doesn't really matter. The point is, flash player of
that version keeps crashing whenever I try to get a class definition
from an external SWF, and after this instantiating that class.
the line producing the crash is then this one; var tmp:* = new skinClass();

Oops you said Circle was the Document class.
var appDomain:ApplicationDomain = e.target.applicationDomain;
var skinClass:Class =
appDomain.getDefinition(getQualifiedClassName(e.target.content)) as
Class;
trace(skinClass: + skinClass);
then it's the same as yours basically. Sorry about the noise!

When following the methods described by Daryl Theo (at

to duplicate DisplayObjects works fine in flash player 9.0.115
(latest). In
version 9.0.47 it repeatedly crashes the browser (both firefox in
ie)... I
wonder
if anyone else has this problem. To reproduce, simple instal 9.0.47,
follow
the steps by Daryl, and voila, a browser crash.
In short, make an swf, with document class Circle
then load in your main swf, with the following code in the
onComplete
handler;
private function onComplete(e:Event) {
var appDomain:ApplicationDomain =
e.target.applicationDomain;
var skinClass:Class = appDomain.getDefinition
(getQualifiedClassName(e.target.loader.content)) as Class;
trace(CLASS: + skinClass);
//var tmp:* = new skinClass(); - uncommenting
this
line
crashes the browser
}
Any ideas, or other ideas to clone a displayobject?

This allows the h.264 file to be progressively downloaded. The good news: is that visual hub costs a mere $24.00. And it will do batch encoding. The downside is that it's mac only. Here's how: 1. In Visual Hub, click Mp4 2. check H.264 3. check Hint for Streaming 4. press start That's it. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
RE: [Flashcoders] How did they do it?? A particular flash site.
That doesn't look like Swift3D to me, looks more like faked 3D using Flash transforms or some other tool - but Swift3D does not do fancy morphing of vector shapes like that.
