hey folks
i have a question that one of the designers has posed to me.
With a local connection syncing banner, if i have one banner talking to
another, but when the first banner is setting up the local connection, if
the second banner isn't properly loaded, will it cause the connection to
fail?
Couldn't HaXe a good candidate for a solution?

Thanks.
How do you mean? HaXe will still have the same limitations in the Flash
Player/AIR: no server sockets. Of course, you could write the helper
applications in any language of your choice. I only would prefer some
language which can convert to native executables for OSX, Windows and

You could write a socket server in haXe/neko rather than haXe/SWF.

I'm pretty sure the first call to LocalConnection creates the file if one
doesn't exist regardless of what else is loaded.

If you are going to go this route for later applications, I would use
screenweaver. It allows flash to talk to the neko VM.

Hi Michael,
If your second font is not embedded in any text field but only
available via linkage then while it is embedded in your file it is not
available for usage. To make it available you need to use the
registerFont function with your linked font. After that it should show

Screenweaver is Neko. :-) It just happens to host an instance of the
Flash Player, and so can run AS3/SWFs inside itself.
You can't write a socket server in the Screenweaver AS3 API - however,
you can write one in the host (neko) app, and talk to it via the AS3
API you've pointed out, Anthony.
That shouldn't be the case.
You will have to offset the original mc's x and y by half the width
and height of the original; but the rotation of the wrapping mc should
always take place around that mc's origin.
e.g.
var wrapper:Sprite=new Sprite();
wrapper.addChild(original);
Well, it's a method of the Object class, so I'd hazard to guess it will work
with everything you create.

It depends on the compiler, but in the Flash IDE go into your library, and
click New Font, then embed the font you want. Bold and Italic have to be
embedded separately if required. Remember to turn on Export for Actionscript
as well.
You also might want to look into style sheets. It keeps things

How are you storing the vector art?
You need a way to parse out the data so that you can choose which lines to

Hey, Flash Coders! Wondering if you can help me out with a little problem
I'm working on...

the 2000 curves that are in my piece of art, I'd like to randomly
something I've always wanted to try is write a script for Illustrator that
would output all of the path info including bezier handles to a text file
for use in flash.
Maybe there's something in the api that will help.
A big issue here is that you need a format that can be parsed at runtime.
Which I'm quickly finding out is not all that easy to do with the new Adobe
Format... FXG. :(
I'm writing a tile based game right now, and I want to store my tile library
in a runtime-loadable format, like FXG or degrafa...
Hmmm... well, for the record, my art is currently just stored as a plain ol'
Graphic in my Flash IDE library (after tracing it from a bitmap) although I
can convert it to other formats if need be. I was hoping Flash had some way
of getting at the vector data, given that it's storing it internally
