For an old project I did this 'Gradient Tween Editor' which might be a
good
starting point for what you want to do:
http://motiondraw.com/md/as_samples/t/gradientTween/asynchronousTween.ht
ml
Here's an example (on the right-hand side) that tweens from one gradient
to
another over time:
http://motiondraw.com/md/as_samples/t/gradientTween/asynchronousTween.ht
ml
On the left is the same tween, but not over time but from top to bottom
-
the first horizontal, 1 pixel high stripe corresponds with the 'first
frame'
of the tween on the right. The stripe at the bottom corresponds with the
'last frame'.
See the code below!

Subject: [Flashcoders] dynamically tween gradient
I'm building a website. The background for each of the sections of the

is a different colored linear gradient. Does anyone have any ideas on
how to
build a class, prototype or series of functions that will dynamically
change
the background gradient from one colored gradient to another over a
period
of time? If anyone has any pre-built code and wouldn't mind sharing I

RE: [Flashcoders] problems with dynamic text field autosize property
I think you may be right. If you look at my code it works perfectly. I'm
just pissed that it took something as stupid as getting the height of
the textfield in 3 different variables. It actually works on the 2nd
variable. You see I put all my code in functions. But, I don't use
classes and prototypes and the like. I was thinking maybe it had
something to do with that. Thanks for answering though. I posted the
same question on a couple of forums and got no response at all.

[Flashcoders] problems with dynamic text field autosize property
Hi Everyone,
I'm having a problem with the dynamic text field autosize property. The
problem I'm having is that I'm not catching the correct height of the
textfield directly after the textfield is filled with text. In other
words, I create a dynamic textfield and give it a set width and then I
set all the properties (selectable, multiline, wordwrap, embed fonts,
autosize, html etc). Then I fill it with html text and then I get its
height. If you will look at my code below you can see that I have the
variables a, b, and c all set to question._height. Every single time I
test this and trace it in the output window I get a =34, b=92, and c=92
(92 is the correct height of the textfield). Does anyone have an
explanation? The text I'm filling the textfield with is loaded from the
data base way before this code executes. It seems that the code is
faster than the textfield can fill up. Is there anyway to detect when
the textfield has filled and autosized?
test_mc.createTextField("question_txt", 1000, 0, 0, 385, 0);
question = _root.test_mc.question_txt;
question.selectable = false;
question.multiline = true;
question.wordWrap = true;
question.embedFonts = true;
question.autoSize = true;
question.html = true;
//flash is taking too much time rendering out this text
question.htmlText = ""+myHTML+"";
//the following is jerry rigged and needs to be fixed
a = question._height;
trace("a = " + a);
b = question._height;
trace("b = " + b);
c = question._height;
trace("c = " + c);
Thanks,
Scott

I'm thinking that you are setting the visibility of the movieclip before
it's instantiated. I'm not certain, it's either this or the movieclip is
set
to be visible at some point after you set it to be invisible.
At this point I can only give you an idea of what could be happening. I

RE: [Flashcoders] SeekBarHandle ??? -- still problems
Thanks Elibol for the traceClip function. I ran your function on my
seekbar that is named 'seeker';
It traced back:
'seeker: _level0.seeker
progress_mc: _level0.seeker.progress_mc'
So it is telling me that the seekbarhandle is named progress_mc (I
guess).
But when I write a piece of code like
_level0.seeker.progress_mc._visible = false;
or
seeker.progress_mc._visible = false;
or
progress_mc._visible = false
It is still visible.

Look for the instance name using the flash debugger. You can also use a
recursive function to trace out all instance names of movieclips.
Something
like this:
function traceClip(mc:MovieClip){
trace(mc._name+': '+mc);
for(var i in mc){
if(mc[i] instanceof MovieClip) arguments.callee(mc[i]);
}
}

RE: [Flashcoders] FLV Playback Issue From Network Path
Yes, we read and tried the livedocs article about using a .cfg file and that is still no solution for us. The application we are trying to build will run in a WAN. This means that the .cfg file will have to be installed on many users' computers. This is completely out of the question. As far as the player, we are using a version 7 .exe. The client is limiting us to UNC paths. This is killing the whole deal because it seems that .flvs and the components and stuff that were built to play them only work locally (on your computer) or over http. We have been researching and experimenting with this problem for a long time and I don't think there is an answer. Macromedia has screwed us again. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of JesterXL Sent: Monday, April 24, 2006 3:08 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] FLV Playback Issue From Network Path Regarding Flash 8, I'm sure you've followed the awesome suggestion here on creating a .cfg file: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/w whelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=1611.html Since the global security settings won't really mean anything in this case since you are running local, perhaps the .cfg +/- the registry suggestions are ok.

RE: [Flashcoders] problems with unc paths in flash 8
With the way the client wants this app set up, there will be no browser involved. Basically the interface will be a flash 7 (I wish 8) exe that people in the company will run on their computers at work (around the country). The exe will get UNC paths from a database and use those to play the flvs within their LAN. Basically the app is video heavy! So they don't want to install the videos and so forth on each of the computers. They can't play them over the net either because they weigh so much. There are also security issues they have with internet -- so that is most definitely out of the question with them. My fellow programmers and I have read every bit of documentation out there on all the new flash 8 security stuff. We didn't find anything. Doesn't mean there wasn't something there. I was recommended to this discussion list by a friend and I wanted to see if anybody here knows anything. Like I said it works in Flash 7 exe, so I do have a work around. I just really want to use the new Flash 8 components.
