 Sajid,
 I can't see any hspace/vspace in your code:
  start code 
Today I was looking at the easter egg of Flash 8 and found pictures of two of 
my friends.br /

 IMHO, you'd better try to make a testing movie (a small file) separated from 
your
 blog.  This is the way I usually do.
  BTW, I've tried the solution  before sending it to list ;-)

 Gregory, I tried using HSPACE as u mentioned and u can see the result here.

 Scroll down a little to find an entry with images.

 HSPACE spoils the layout.
 VSPACE also does the same.

You need to add br tag instead of p AND hspace/vspace attributes
to your IMG.
Current html:

[Flashcoders] browsing Flashcoders archives on local PC

2005-11-24 Thread Gregory_GOusable
Hello Flashcoders,

I'm preparing for MM certification and would like to refresh my
Flash MX 2004 knowledge by reading Flashcoders archives (2003-2005).

They are downloadable as huge (4-5mb per month) text files.

Does someone have experience/tricks/ideas of how to browse them on local PC

Re: [Flashcoders] detecting when mouse goes outside of the flash

2005-11-23 Thread Gregory_GOusable

I'd suggest to use 1-pixel frame (maybe invisible) movieclip. Even
better - 2 such frames,- say, 1 and 2 px from the edge of the stage.
Then it can work as follows:

1) If mouse crosses one of frames, check (setInterval or onEnterFrame) if
it'll cross other right after this. Then:
2) If inner-then-outer = likely it goes outside;
   if outer-then-inner = likely it came back.
3) You can use vars (boolean) like hasCrossedInner etc.

Hope this can help.

Hi coders.

This has been up before, and I have done some own tests and searched the

But I can't find the solution, if there is any.

I want a certain thing to happen in my flash when the mouse moves
outside flash. Since the _xmouse/_ymouse stops updating when dragged
outside you cant rely on them (they do work WHEN mouse is pressed and
dragged out from the swf, but that is of course not a solution)

I have also tried to add a big 'button' which has onRollOut/onDragOut
attached to it, but the problem is that button-events above it will
disable the underlying one.

So what I know of there is no solution to this problem, but probably
some decent hacks?

I am not interested in a solution which requires code in the html-page
or so, but if you have such one I would like to know about it as well.

But mainly I wish to know a solution in which flash internally can say
if the mouse-cursor is outside the flash in the html-page.

Thanks Coders

Re: [Flashcoders] External text from XML file including superscript and italic

2005-11-16 Thread Gregory_GOusable
Paul,

I think it IS possible. Especially if you know what exactly will be in
superscript.
1) As for italic, you can just use i tag or font-style CSS
attribute.
2) As for TM in superscript - in some fonts trade; symbol is
superscript by default. You can always use this font if the string
contains TM and embed the symbol to be sure :-).

It IS possible.
You can define any CUSTOM tag instead of span:
//create a style
this.createTextField(my_txt, 1, 100, 100, 300, 100);
var my_style:TextField.StyleSheet = new TextField.StyleSheet();
my_style.parseCSS(redtext {color:#FF});
my_txt.styleSheet = my_style;
my_txt.htmlText = There can be redtextspecial/redtext fragment in
text;
  
With external CSS it's exactly the same.

 This is probably not possible but it would be nice if it is?

eric,

It's quite strange/funny/having_no_sense for me, but in fact

symbol in the library BEFORE converting to a component.

I have experienced the same thing several times.

So, if you  have been creating MXP files all morning, you've
probably use one fla as a base and just Save as..
The solution is to rename movie clip in the duplicated file (or
library) and only after this convert to component.

BTW, name from MXI appears (maybe, I've not checked it ;-) only in descr at 
MM Exchange.
Strange that MM haven't fixed it in Flash 8 (I'm still using MX 2004).

Re: [Flashcoders] Detect if swf being viewed in html page

2005-11-14 Thread Gregory_GOusable
Paul,

 To detect this, use flashvars. You can send them either as flashvars
 parameter or as part of swf url:
 (for IE Object tag)
 param name=flashvars value=var_name='val1'var_name2='val2'
 OR
 param name=movie value=test.swf?var1=value1val2=value2 /

 Then try to check these vars at _root (as _root.var1 etc).

 BTW, Actionscript.org uses this to hide emails from spammers.

RE: [Flashcoders] special characters

Enrico, I tried what you've described - indeed!
you wrote:
How can I write the '' char, inside an html dynamic textfield?

In fact, writing  char isn't a problem, but loading it from text
file is: it's either recognized as tag or (if you use lt; etc)
another variable.
But if you try create a local var with html inside it, everything is
ok.
Solution:
1) I'd suggest to use XML file with CDATA instead of plain text.
Do you mind?
2) If the first doesn't fit you, maybe try to use another
char/combination in your txt file, then after loading replace them
with  or  using string manipulations. And then assign this string to
a textfield.

 If, instead than '' I write %3C, Flash recognize this like '', and it
 think that is a tag open, then - without the expected tag close - the load
 of following text stops.
 Trying to find a solution to this, I have met another strange behavior:
 thinkin' that, if the problem is the 'open without close tag', I wrote
 something like this
 condition 1: %3Cfont color=#ff%3E/font condition 2
 where, obviously, white (#ff) is the background color; well, Flash show
 like below!
condition 1:  condition 2
 Then, what it done is the follow:
 - don't stop the following text loading
 - don't show the char ''
 - instead show the char '', that should be white (no visible) ...
 I'm upcoming to become crazy!

 Besides the security stuff - already added the webserver to trusted hosts

Re: [Flashcoders] How to draw a copy of a curve?

2005-11-03 Thread Gregory_GOusable
OK, thanks to Jon for giving me a hope :-)
I'll try to be more specific now.

I'm developing  a product, Dynamic Blend Flash component which
allows you to dynamically build blend groups based on your symbols.
Have a look: http://www.gousable.com/flash/dynBlend.html

*Blend* tools in CorelDRAW or Freehand allow to apply blend to
curve, which is very useful for creating visual effects.
So, I'd like to implement this, too.

The problem is that, unlike Corel, I can't know the user's curve
parameters and have to determine them in runtime.
I think the solution is to create a copy of user's curve (or parallel
one).
Do anyone know the appropriate algorithm (cubic curves etc)?

For now, user can only imitate applying to curve using some
tricks...

Thanks in advance.

In MX 2004, you can write the help in form of HTML files (number of

Then, add the tag for each html file to your .mxi like that:
file source=_your_path_/file_name.html
destination=$flash/HelpPanel/Help/_your_folder_ /

See Extending Flash Help Panel Content article in Flash
Documentation on MM site.

frcfc flash movie it was something that only worked right in IE. Others may
frcfc have more experience, but that was the issue I ran into when I tried to
frcfc do it.

frcfc Gregory, I'm on a Mac and have tried to do just what you're trying. 
frcfc I've had no luck with it on the Mac at all.  Had the same results in the
frcfc other browsers as well.

frcfc We never found a way to get it to work.  Sorry!

 I'm working on a floating Flash ad which will be placed over a HTML 
 page (DIV layer, wmode of movie set to transparent).

 But I'd like user to be able to click links through Flash movie (as 
 just about a half is really covered by flash symbols etc).

 I've tested it on the Windows platform with different browsers.
 Results:
 - OK with IE4+
 - NO with Opera, Netscape, Mozilla/Firefox etc.

 Question to Mac users:
 Please test if you can click links through Flash movie. Just go to:

[Flashcoders] Flash project FLP files are useless

2005-11-01 Thread Gregory_GOusable
Hello Flashcoders,

  From time to time I'm trying to find improvements for work process
  ;-)
  So, I tried Flash Projects feature/panel of MX 2004 Pro.
  And... found it useless:
  - to use version-control, one need MS Visual SourceSafe Client
  version 6 installed. Besides, it doesn't make sense if you work
  alone.
  - to manage projects, I don't need it either. I use SciTE/Flash
  for editing .as files and Flash authoring only for drawing and
  assembling the swf. In fact, now I use #include file_name or ext.
  classes instead of all_code_in_one_frame approach even for small
  projects.

  Question:
  Have anyone found any use of  Flash Projects feature/panel? Maybe in
  Flash 8? Of course, excluding version control for workgroups.

  Thanks.
