[Flashcoders] Access Amazons Simple storage S3
Hi Has anyone got experience with using flash and Amazons S3? What I have to do is send this key to amazon http://webdeploy/r/mixes/mixreq.aspx?username=+username+mixname=+mixname, _parent; Amazon then returns a unique key to me. I've been trying to use getURL method but all that does is open a web page with the key I need to get printed on it? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
[Flashcoders] pixelizing a bitmap
hello list,
I am making some tests to discover if it is possibile to pixelize a bitmap
with AS3, with a reasonable speed. I wrote the code below, but it works only
with images until 50x50 (in a quadcore). You can see the effect
http://www.andreithomaz.com/labs/files/pixel/teste1.html.
I would like to ask you for advices about how I could optimize it. Or if I
just should try Java/C++.
thank you,

Re: [Flashcoders] pixelizing a bitmap
Hi,
Would it not be quicker to shrink the source bitmap to a size that
is proportional to the pixelized square size, copy the pixels into a
destination bitmap, then scale the destination back to the original size?
Not sure if that works, but just a suggestion.

Re: [Flashcoders] pixelizing a bitmap
You want to create a mosaic-like effect?
Forget getPixel/setPixel/drawrect.. it'll be too slow. Instead, you
should let Flash handle it by creating new Bitmaps, shrinking the image
inside it, drawing that to a new bitmapdata, and then using that new
bitmapdata on the original size.

Re: [Flashcoders] pixelizing a bitmap
hello glen,
it worked fine, thank you. Scaling the bitmaps produces a more discrete
animations (i.e., it is not so continuous; the pixel size is incremented in
such a way that there is no small pixels at the corners), but, for what I
have to do, that is not a problem:

Really the whole goal here is to be able to load swfs (from a different

there any solutions for this type of thing?

[Flashcoders] Using States, MXML, Events, O' My
I have a question about MXML and ActionScript and how they communicate with each other. I'm working with the State tage to change views. I have a Class called SpacePorter; it has 4 buttons that dispatchEvents( MyButton.BUTTON_CLICKED). Space Porter is instantiated into my Home Class. Home class is than created using mxml in my root Application. Now, I want to be able with AS3 or MXML to subscribe to that Broadcast so my State can change, depending on the button that was clicked. I can't quite wrap my head around this with my lack of MXML and ActionScript relations - especially with the CDATA tags. I tried getting the button object through AS, by doing: homeView.button, but it seems as though i can't get to the properties of an mxml (instantiated object) from a AS script inside the script tag. I hope this makes some sense, if need be I can explain some more. Could really use the help on this. This is great real world attempt of me using Flex.

RE: [Flashcoders] Using States, MXML, Events, O' My
If your button in the custom class is broadcasting an event, say for an
example, and event called changed, you can add an event listener in a
script tag in the main MXML. A snippet would be:
private function addListeners():void
{
myCustomClassInstance.addEventListener(changed, onChanged);
}
private function onChanged():void
{
currentState = myOtherState;
}
However, if you class creates buttons, why not have those buttons
created with MXML instead of Actionscript?
There is a great Flex list on Yahoo! called Flexcoders which would be
more capable to answer this than this list.

RE: [Flashcoders] Using States, MXML, Events, O' My
In addition, your custom class can take a reference to the main Flex
MXML class and use that to change the state right within the class
(though this is not good encapsulation practice!)
To do that, (and I don't know why I'm recommending it bad idea
architecturally...but oh well) you would do:
public class MyClass extends UIComponent
{
public function MyClass(app:UIComponent)
{
var b:Button = new Button();
b.label = Click me
b.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
addChild(b);
}
private function onClick():void
{
app.currentState = myOtherState;
}
}

thanks guys this is the code in question:

var optionBtn: String ;
var sceneToUse : Number ;

var mainGapSize : Number ;

var pad: XMLList ;
var option: Number ;
option = i + 1 ;
sceneToUse = USERDATA.sceneToUse ;
pad= SELECTXML [ scene + sceneToUse ][
option + option ].attribute( padY ) ;
normalTemp= getChildByName(square + (i+1)) ;
grayTemp= getChildByName(graySquare + (i+1)) ;
textTemp= getChildByName(text + (i+1)) ;
mainGapSize = (mainBase.height -
(normalTemp.height* numButtons)) / (numButtons + 1) ;
mainSquareHeight = mainBase.height - mainGapSize * 2 ;
smallGapSize = (mainSquareHeight - ( (
normalTemp.height * numButtons))) / 2 ;
normalTemp.x= (((mainBase.width / 2 -
normalTemp.width / 2) + i * 6) + mainBase.x)-4 ;
//normalTemp.y = (mainBase.y + mainGapSize +
((mainGapSize + normalTemp.height )*i) + normalTemp.height / 2) ;
normalTemp.y= pad ;
grayTemp.x= normalTemp.x ;
grayTemp.y= normalTemp.y ;
textTemp.x = (normalTemp.width / 2 -

textTemp.y= normalTemp.y + 7 ;
trace(NORMAL TEMP Y = + normalTemp.y )
if (i == 3) textTemp.y = normalTemp.y + 17 ;
objCords[square +(i+1)+X] = normalTemp.x ;
objCords[square +(i+1)+Y] = normalTemp.y ;
}
};
Basically what happens is that this loop runs through a number of images and
aligns them on the screen. Unfortunatelly due to the privacy of the project
I cant share images but imagine 3 images and they have to be aligned on top
of each other. I tried one more different server and everything works fine
in testing and my personal server but the server where this is going live is
the one that Im having the issues.
One thing that I can say is that i make some javascript calls before this
rutine so I am going to make sure that everything is written properly,
specially with being case sensitive. I just never had this type of issue
before so it is really frustrating.
Thanks again

Re: [Flashcoders] Using States, MXML, Events, O' My
The custom class that has the button event is a composite class inside
another class (we'll call that MainInterActive class). MainInterActive is
than instantiated in a main mxml application inside a state node. I could
try what you mentioned but the composite classes' buttons are not really
available to the main application. Unless there is a way I could subscribe
to that button, although it is a child of the child class in
MainInterActive.
The reason why I'm not creating the buttons using mxml is because they are
doing some funky animations.
thanks for your help on this, any ideas for a resolution on accessing the
button or buttons event?
