RE: [Flashcoders] RE: Timer object created twice in class
Ah, thanks. The event handler containing the conditional was being called
twice, I had an unnecessary dispatchEvent(e) in another class.
PS: I replaced the actual conditional with (1 == 1) when simplifying the code
to see where what was going wrong, ha. It actually checks to see if at least
five seconds of a video have played.

I don't know where to go to look at the problem so I can troubleshoot it. My client's computers that have IE6 are a couple thousand miles away.

[Flashcoders] omit trace statements from SWCs
I've been working on a component and while developing have been using trace statements. Now I want to "publish" the component for others to use and want to omit the trace statements. I've changed the setting in the FLA that I've used for the component development, but it doesn't seem to affect what happens when I use "export to SWC". I still see trace statements from the component when testing in my test FLA. I'm using Flash CS4 and AS2 (required for the project I'm working on). Any ideas?

Henrik Anderson wrote: It's been a while since I have experienced such an unorganized mess of ideas and a lack of a clear point. I love it. Glad you liked it, but look out, Henrik. The more times you see it, the more sense it makes. The daxophone is famous for the voice-like sounds it makes. I gather that almost all of the audio was done with the various "tongues" of the daxophone. He has created an amazing chorus of stringed musical instruments that, together, 'speak' a very rich musical language that does indeed merit its own font. From Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daxophone ): "The daxophone, invented by Hans Reichel, is a experimental musical instrument of the friction idiophones category. It consists of a thin wooden blade fixed in a wooden block (often attached to a tripod), which holds one or more contact microphones. Normally, it is played by bowing the free end, but it can also be struck or plucked, which propagates sound in the same way a ruler halfway off a table does.[1] These vibrations then continue to the wooden-block base, which in turn is amplified by the contact microphone(s) therein. A wide range of voice-like timbres can be produced, depending on the shape of the instrument, the type of wood, where it is bowed, and where along its length it is stopped with a separate block of wood (fretted on one side) called the "dax." One of the reasons, I think, that daxo.de is so good is because Reichel is deeply familiar with the construction of interfaces with character, via his daxophones and their "tongues". In part, daxo.de is a reflection on what's to keep and what to throw away in our notions of lively, engaging interfaces. ja ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
RE: [Flashcoders] Template w/ XML?
You're setting the text in the text field before the handler
(completeXMLListener) even runs.
Also - Text is a bad name for a function, it's common practice for
method names to be underlined, and also use non-reserved words. Text is
a reserved word in Actionscript. Also - it's also common practice to
capitalize class names.
Lastly, you should declare your methods as public, private or protected,
and specify return types. In this case, I would make them all private.

That got me on the right track. I have one little wrinkle to work out of
this first attempt. Here's my code:
package
{
imports here
class suchandsuch extends MovieClip
{
var pageDetails:String = new String();
var urlXMLLoader:URLLoader;
function suchandsuch()
{
XMLLoader();
Text();
}
function XMLLoader()
{
var urlXMLRequest:URLRequest = new
URLRequest('pageDetails.xml');
urlXMLLoader = new URLLoader();
urlXMLLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
completeXMLListener);
urlXMLLoader.load(urlXMLRequest);
}
function completeXMLListener(e:Event):void
{
var xmlData:XML = XML (e.target.data);
pageDetails = xmlData.DETAILS.toString();
}
function Text()
{
more stuff here
myText.htmlText = pageDetails;
myText.htmlText += "Lorem ipsum dolor sitipsum, convallis
consequat orci."; more stuff
Now, if I put a trace under this line:
myText.htmlText = pageDetails;
I get :
[object textField]
which is what I want. But it doesn't print anything to screen. If I put
the following trace under this line:
pageDetails = xmlData.DETAILS.toString();
trace(pageDetails);
it traces out what I want. No errors. Please advise.
TIA,
John

[Flashcoders] Of Meercats and Music: The Daxophonic Hans Reichel of Daxo.de
Here is a review I wrote ( http://netpoetic.com/2010/05/the-daxophonic-hans-reichel-of-daxo-de ) of a suite of 12 interactive audio Flash works at daxo.de by Hans Reichel. "Hans Reichel (1949) is a German improvisational guitarist, experimental luthier, inventor, and type designer." So saith Wikipedia so you know the statement has passed many semi-clueless scrutinies to emerge supported, probably not without revision. But, yes, he is all that and more. The 'more' part includes creator-of-the-Flash-interactive-audio-visual-daxo.de, which we shall look at. Daxo.de is one of the best hypermedia works of its kind that I've experienced. ja ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Re: [Flashcoders] iPhone viable solutions???
gordon was done as a proof of concept javascript substitute for the plugin - http://paulirish.com/work/gordon/demos/ - it's rudimentary at the moment but if combined with html5, it shows that it's possible for adobe to start taking different routes around the plugin problem a On 30 April 2010 21:36, Karl DeSaulniers wrote: > Yes, for the quake game, because it is a multiplayer game that takes a > dedicated server, > there will always be some setup, but I think that is if you want to > display/host the game. > Not for actually playing it.

[Flashcoders] FocusManager
I needed to know which object was in Focus, so I imported the FocusManager from the fl.managers package which is not included in AS projects in Flex. The whole library is rather bloated, and contains loads of warnings. Is there some other FocusManager I should be using for an AS3 project in Flex? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
