Re: [Flashcoders] best flash actionscript book/reference
I agree wholeheartedly with the Essential ActionScript 2.0 recomendation but would add that Moock's previous book, ActionScript for Flash MX, is also indispensable. Sure, some of the stuff in it is not necessarily up-to-date but, as a reference to ActionScript's built in classes and methods I find it often makes things crystal clear when the standard documentation has muddied the waters. These two titles should be glued together IMHO! I'd also recommend you take a look at Oreilly's (the publishers of these two books) Safari bookshelf service - it gives you online access to these and loads of other great manuals (no, I have no affiliation with them, just think it's a great service :).

[Flashcoders] Can a NetStream object be a static property of an object
I have a class that is serving as my model and one of the attributes is a NetStream . The class is a Singleton which I am having multiple views check on. one of the properties is a NetStream object. I am finding that at times some other objects that get a reference to that object are not able to control the stream. When I check the value of the netstream they are trying to control I find that they do indeed have a NeStream object. My best guess is that they are not reaching the same NetStream for some reason. Can anyone shed some light on similar experiences. My container class is a static object and so is the NetStream object that it holds.

Re: [Flashcoders] Get the average of 2 colors
Whats the easiest way to calculate the average of two colors? Your answer sounds fine, given that there's not really a precise definition of the 'average of two colours'. But certainly if you were interpolating between colours, that's what you'd do. There are two main ways to combine colours: additively, as you did, or multiplicatively (how's that for a word?), otherwise called 'modulating'. We use multiplicative combinations of colours for things like reflections, where the colour of one object affects the light coming off it. Additive blending is used when we have two sources of colour shining on the same spot. In your case, I'm pretty sure additive is what you're looking for.

If the string can be represented by a real number, here is a solution I've written for you: function parseReal(a:String){ var b = a.split('.'), l=b[1].length, b=[Number(b[0]), Number(b[1])], c = b[1]/Math.pow(10, l); return b[0]0? b[0]+c:b[0]-c; } var s:String = -952.86; var i:Number = parseReal(s); trace(i); trace(i - -952.86); //Output: 0 M.

Re[2]: [Flashcoders] Can't reference a library font from inside a staticclass (?)
Hello Jason, From reading that article, what is SFM? - Shared Fonts Manager www.sharedfonts.com about it. MJ Also, this is recommending using text fields placed off-stage which show MJ all the characters? I wanted to just do this from a class and have MJ minimal interaction with the .fla - the article also seems written for MJ an older version of Flash. Is this really the only way to reference a MJ font in the library from a static class? In AS2 you can use special class for access to formats instead _level0.fmt_container object for example: class FontsLibrary { private static var container:Object; public static function registerFormat (from_text_field:TextField):Void { container = container || {}; if (!from_text_field.embedFonts) { return; } var t_fmt = from_text_field.getNewTextFormat(); var name:String = t_fmt.font; if (t_fmt.bold) { name += _bold; } if (t_fmt.italic) { name += _italic; } container[name] = t_fmt; } public static function isRegistered (font:String, bold:Boolean, italic:Boolean):TextFormat { var name:String = t_fmt.font; if (t_fmt.bold) { name += _bold; } if (t_fmt.italic) { name += _italic; } if (container[name]) { return true; } return false; } } your class: class com.icfconsulting.objects.SimpleTextField{ public static function create(target_mc:MovieClip):TextField{ //(Note:I just want a simple text field, so values are hard coded for now) var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); my_fmt.font = Swis; my_fmt.color = 0x00; my_fmt.size = 16; target_mc.createTextField(tf_txt,0,20,20,200,20); target_mc.tf_txt.embedFonts = FontsLibrary.isRegistered(Swis, false, false); .. and in the FLA you need register formats, possible using class: import FontsLibrary; class TextFormatsHolder extends MovieClip { function TextFormatsHolder () { for (var i:String in this) { var text_field:TextField = TextField(this[i]) FontsLibrary.registerFormat(text_field); } this.swapDepths(this._parent.getNextHighestDepth()); this.removeMovieClip(); } } add to library in FLA TextFormatsHolder class movieclip and add textfields with embeded fonts. don't set export in first frame and add this movieclip to timeline after preloader. it's just a principle of solution. script not checked. -- Ivan Dembicki [EMAIL PROTECTED] || http://www.design.ru ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Thanks - I might try that script, but is embedding a font from a Class script really need to be that complicated? You said you hadn't checked the script, I myself am not quite sure what it does, so hard to modify for my use, especially not sure about lines like: container = container || {}; ?

Re: [Flashcoders] dynamically naming sound objects?
Offhand I'm not sure of the problem -- anyone else have an idea? It could be as simple as the use of False rather than false in that last line. But I also wonder about two things: First, I would expect a trace of the mySounds array to return a list of paths to the sounds, not [Object Object]. Second, I'm not sure of the implications of using _root as the scope for every testSound object where you're re-using the name for the Sound object. Since you're calling them in a single action sequence, I don't know if Flash has a chance to start loading one sound before it's replaced by the action to load another sound. At best, loading them sequentially into the same Sound object means you can only access the last sound to be loaded. So you might try assigning a unique name to each sound object. - Marc At 05:49 AM 3/10/2006, murder design wrote: paths are ok, playing them without dynamically loading and placing into arrays is fine. the trace of the array results in: [Object Object] four times, however no play. here is my complete code, no errors, but no results: when i give each sound object the same name, does that matter if there is a pointer within an array element for each one? am i going about this wrong... var mySounds:Array = new Array(); var sPath:String = sound/loops/; mySounds[0] = sPath + Accident-Broadkas-8819.mp3; mySounds[1] = sPath + 5-jakkob-2501.mp3; mySounds[2] = sPath + albert-Mikkel_M-204.mp3; mySounds[3] = sPath + delerium-queali-1634.mp3; var sounds_array:Array = new Array(); var sBaseName:String = sound; // load all sounds in loop function loadSounds() { for (var i:Number = 0; i mySounds.length; i++) { sRef = _root; var testSound:Sound = new Sound(sRef); sounds_array.push(testSound); testSound.loadSound(mySounds[i], False); } } ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

When doing complex z-sorting ESPECIALLY when using V2 components, you should use the DepthManager class. it makes life much easier. Essentially the DepthManager provides you with functionality for rearranging depths without explicitly stating the depth numbers... HOW you ask?! Well it just so happens that DepthManager comes complete with a nifty, handy, dandy set of constants (i.e. DepthManager.kTop) These constants place your chosen MC on a single level and consequently shifts all of the prior classes (up or down depending on the constant used). BUT THAT'S NOT ALL!! You also get free sorting algorithms for moving groups of MC's and components ABSOLUTELY FREE! The thing to keep in mind is that you can't use traditional attachMovie calls to move things to the stage dynamically, nor can you use items already on the stage with DepthManager. The reason is because the DepthManager needs to know what it is sorting at loadtime. Here is a snippet example from one of my apps... /**CODE HERE**/ import mx.managers.DepthManager; /*clipped for brevity*/ // Create a container movie clip. _tools_mc = target.createChildAtDepth(_tools_mc, DepthManager.kTop); // //create a name label for this users screen _name_lbl = target.createClassChildAtDepth(Label, DepthManager.kBottom, {styleName:myStyle, color:0xDD, fontSize: 72}); //_name_lbl = _tools_mc.createClassObject (Label,_name_lbl,_tools_mc.getNextHighestDepth(), {styleName:myStyle, color:0x33, fontSize:72}); _name_lbl.autoSize = left; _name_lbl.text = ; _name_lbl.move(55,30); // //create _menuBar to show and hide color _dropDown _menuBar = _tools_mc.createClassChildAtDepth(MenuBar, DepthManager.kTop); _menuBar.setSize(Stage.width,_menuBar.height); /**CODE HERE**/ Now to move these guys around all I have to do is call the depth modifiers to change things around... # DepthManager.setDepthAbove() # DepthManager.setDepthBelow() # DepthManager.setDepthTo() see the documentation for more info... http://livedocs.macromedia.com/ flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm? context=LiveDocs_Partsfile=3458.html Also, see this chattyfig thread... http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/ pipermail/flashcoders/2004-May/111796.html More info on managers from macromedia... http://www.macromedia.com/ devnet/flash/articles/component_architecture_06.html Hope this helps..

Re: [Flashcoders] dynamically naming sound objects?
I can think of 2 possibilities causing your trouble: 1. By using 1 name for all your Sound objects, each one is over-writing the one before it. So what you end up with is 4 references to the same Sound, the last one in the loop. 2. It's possible that you're trying to play the sounds before they're completely loaded. I played with your code a bit and this works: code var mySounds:Array = new Array(); var sPath:String = ../mp3/; mySounds[0] = sPath+soundD_DIP_you_know_this_word.mp3; mySounds[1] = sPath+soundD_NAR_a.mp3; mySounds[2] = sPath+soundD_NAR_a_(art).mp3; mySounds[3] = sPath+soundD_NAR_a_capital_b_looks_like_this.mp3; var sounds_array:Array = new Array(); var sBaseName:String = sound; // load all sounds in loop function loadSounds() { trace(loadSounds); for (var i:Number = 0; imySounds.length; i++) { var sRef = _root; //var testSound:Sound = new Sound(sRef); this[testSound+i] = new Sound(sRef); var rfcSound:Sound = this[testSound+i]; rfcSound.onLoad = function(success){ if(success) { // prove the load is complete trace(this+: dur:+this.duration); } else { trace(Not loaded yet); } }; rfcSound.loadSound(mySounds[i], False); sounds_array.push(rfcSound); } } loadSounds(); // // test to play sounds // make sure the start() call comes after the load is complete onInterval = function(){ clearInterval(nbrInterval) for (var i in sounds_array) { trace(tick); sounds_array[i].start(); } }; nbrInterval = setInterval (this, onInterval, 1000); /code hth, Bob Marc Hoffman wrote: Offhand I'm not sure of the problem -- anyone else have an idea? It could be as simple as the use of False rather than false in that last line. But I also wonder about two things: First, I would expect a trace of the mySounds array to return a list of paths to the sounds, not [Object Object]. Second, I'm not sure of the implications of using _root as the scope for every testSound object where you're re-using the name for the Sound object. Since you're calling them in a single action sequence, I don't know if Flash has a chance to start loading one sound before it's replaced by the action to load another sound. At best, loading them sequentially into the same Sound object means you can only access the last sound to be loaded. So you might try assigning a unique name to each sound object. - Marc At 05:49 AM 3/10/2006, murder design wrote: paths are ok, playing them without dynamically loading and placing into arrays is fine. the trace of the array results in: [Object Object] four times, however no play. here is my complete code, no errors, but no results: when i give each sound object the same name, does that matter if there is a pointer within an array element for each one? am i going about this wrong... var mySounds:Array = new Array(); var sPath:String = sound/loops/; mySounds[0] = sPath + Accident-Broadkas-8819.mp3; mySounds[1] = sPath + 5-jakkob-2501.mp3; mySounds[2] = sPath + albert-Mikkel_M-204.mp3; mySounds[3] = sPath + delerium-queali-1634.mp3; var sounds_array:Array = new Array(); var sBaseName:String = sound; // load all sounds in loop function loadSounds() { for (var i:Number = 0; i mySounds.length; i++) { sRef = _root; var testSound:Sound = new Sound(sRef); sounds_array.push(testSound); testSound.loadSound(mySounds[i], False); } } ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com -- Thanks, ~ Bob Leisle Headsprout Software Engineering http://www.headsprout.com Where kids learn to read! ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
[Flashcoders] Re: fscommand breaks when embed tags dynamically generated
There was some old discussion about this, here are the relevant links : http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/pipermail/flashcoders/2004-November/126756.html http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/htdig/flashcoders/2004-December/126914.html In a nutshell, I am seeing the same problem. I have a webpage that dynamically writes out the object tag info into a div when a user clicks on a link to bring up the appropriate flash file in that div. I have my VBScript function and javascript function in place and the appropriate fscommand in my flash file, but the fscommand will not work in IE, only in Firefox/Mozilla. If I were to write out the object tag, even with javascript, when the page was loaded, fscommand works fine from IE and Firefox/Mozilla, but I need to be able to write it out after the page has loaded, when a link is clicked. The user in the messages referred to above says he worked around the issue, I was hoping he or someone else here could help me out with some ways to get around it. getUrl and the javascript/flash interaction kit both work fine except I'm sending data from flash to javascript once a second so under most default configurations of IE I get the link clicking sound every one second, thats why I'm using fscommand instead. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

RE: [Flashcoders] puzzle: how to verify piece-fitting?
I can't off the top of my head think of any visual ways of doing it, but you can check the relationship of the pieces to each other. For instance if piece A can only fit to the left of B and the bottom of C (it's the lower left hand corner) then you could check those two distance relationships and the rotation of each. You'd have to store all of the right relationships somewhere, such as in the piece instances. Is this the kind of solution you're looking for?

[Flashcoders] Still need help-Can't reference library font from class
I finally did get this to work by trying it in a fresh .fla, but now I'm seeing this issue: When I do this: import com.icfconsulting.objects.SimpleTextField; tf=SimpleTextField.create(this) It's fine, the text field show and with the right font. But when I try and set the text on the text field it returns, like this: import com.icfconsulting.objects.SimpleTextField; tf=SimpleTextField.create(this) tf.text=hello, hello! It just shows blank, like setting the text on the text field my class returns screws it up somehow. Any idea what's up? The class code is the same, and I am trying this in a new fresh .fla with a Swis font in the library. Why would adding that one line screw it up again? My simple class test file is as follows: class com.icfconsulting.objects.SimpleTextField{ public static function create(target_mc:MovieClip):TextField{ var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); my_fmt.font = Swis; my_fmt.color = 0x00; my_fmt.size = 16; target_mc.createTextField(tf_txt,0,20,20,200,20); target_mc.tf_txt.embedFonts = true; target_mc.tf_txt.text=Hello world; target_mc.tf_txt.setTextFormat(my_fmt); return target_mc.tf_txt; } } Jason Merrill | E-Learning Solutions | icfconsulting.com NOTICE: This message is for the designated recipient only and may contain privileged or confidential information.

right, that's referered to as re-parenting a movieclip...changing the parent of a clip. can't do that in AS1 2. the usual solution is to attach a clip from the library at the spot where the clip you were dragging is dropped. pretty much a slight-of-hand trick.

Re: [Flashcoders] datagrid icon to delete a row.
Again, not sure how this would work in Flash, but in Flex you would have a cell renderer for the button. Inside the cell renderer you have a setValue() method that allows you to determine something about the data for that row, so you can disable the button or whatever else you need to do. You also have a reference to the list itself through the listOwner property, so when you get a click event on the button you can call listOwner.dispatchEvent() and dispatch a custom event from the list. Since you're creating the event you can easily put the data that applies to that row in there. In the event handler for your custom event you can loop over the dataProvider for the list and check which row matches the data in the event. That will give you the row index. There are lots of other ways to do it, but that's about the most generic, so it should work for most scenarios. Hopefully that makes some sort of sense.

It's all about conversion of units. If the map represents from the left to right 7.65 to 9.34 and the width of the map is 200, than each pixel is 0.00845 units.

Possible you haven't fonts used in example. Just set your fonts in textfields and set embeded character set. Look at registered array and trace your fonts names. Yup - been there, done that. Set the font in the code and in the text field to Arial even. This seems to be an overly complicated way to solve what should be a simple problem. I'm really also trying to figure out WHY my way doesn't work, and so far, nobody's responded to that yet. See my follow up post - I got it working my original way (thanks to Duncan Reid offlist), until I tried to set the text field text a second time, then it disappeared I still don't know why it's doing this.

Re: [Flashcoders] Still need help-Can't reference library font from class
Although I have had my fair share of headaches with TextFormat, I think I may know what is going on here. There are two methods for assigning a textFormat to a textField. These are setTextFormat() and setNewTextFormat(). The way I understand it setTextFormat() sets the style of the text that is currently assigned to the textField BUT any new text assigned by actionscript, by replaceSel() or by the user (in the case of input text) is styled according to the setNewTextFormat() method and if none is given, as in your class, the new text is given some default style, which, as you've noticed, is not necessarily the same as the style you defined by setTextFormat(). so I would try using setNewTextFormat() also and see if that works.

Re: [Flashcoders] What's your job title?
I have a mullet, rented a truck last week, live in the boondocks of Georgia which is 50th in the state for education, a lot of people lack teeth because we produce the most crystal meth out of all 50 states, and I was the only guy in high school to have a car (the rest had trucks). ...STILL, I'm sticking by my Ninja Turtle title whether the south rises again or not.

RE: [Flashcoders] What's your job title?
Come on, lighten up, man... They were jokes, and clearly in no way directed at anyone on this list. So you're saying racial comments about Indians and Mexicans are OK on this list (or maybe even in general) as long as they are not directed at any one person on this list (even though there is a good chance there actually are persons or [related to persons as I am] of Mexican and Indian heritage on this list) and they are also in the form of jokes? Uh, ok. Well... I'm light, man - with my redneck git 'er done comment, and stupid smiley face, I was trying to be light back and not bring anyone down like I apparently did to you anyway - maybe you could lighten up a little too.

Re: [Flashcoders] DataGrid rows with unique background colours?
Hi Adrian - the $5 datagrid extensions at http://www.tufat.com/script5.htmwill let you do this. best, - rajat On 3/10/06, Adrian Park [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm working on an app' that uses the Datagrid component. It would make my client very happy if I could apply unique colours to individual rows in the datagrid and it would enhance the user exeprience of the app' if it were possible. Looking through the documentation, I can't find any way of directly referencing a row or cell in the DataGrid so that's the first problem. If I could get that reference, the next problem is how to apply the colour to the background but I'm less worried about that as I'm sure I can figure that out.

RE: [Flashcoders] What's your job title?
Dude... Chill, seriously. This little subthread has gotten so OT now, its ridiculous. Please note, I never mentioned Mexicans - unfortunately you were the one who took it there. I mentioned going to Mexico, as in the country. FYI... I live just minutes north of the border (and lived in Mexico City for a long time, for that matter) so it's clearly the nearest border to me that I could cross to come back in. Get off your politically correct high horse for a minute and realize that not everything people say like this is racist. That's a really strong word to throw out - unfortunately more and more people are willing to do so these days when they have nothing cogent to say.

RE: [Flashcoders] What's your job title?
So the they in your e-mail was instead referring to the Indians OK.
