So many interesting power struggles going on right now between Adobe,
Apple, Microsoft and Google. Makes you wonder who will come out on
top.
Apple vs the World ? Are they idiots or what ?? Definitely: Apple
will come down.
Speaking about the cleaness of code :S
The MS days are far
Wow that is a depressing end to the week and a massive deflation for the launch
of CS5 on Monday which I was really looking to upgrade to as I'm still on CS3.
I got an iPhone a couple months ago on the basis that I might get to do some
development for it. It will be interesting to see how the

Well, they got that one covered with bootcamp. But us Old world mac

I wish we could get the owner of Cydia on here to answer some
questions on non-native and the effects its had on native sales
coding and such.
I'd probably be some good stuff.. encouraging anyway.

another list, there should be a bunch of application developpers HEROES
that get together and build this killer app the iphone won't have.
That would be Zynga with FarmVille. I refuse to think of them as
heroes though.

Sorry, I didn't meant 'heroes' but thought about 'apps' that get
sold ... because 180'000 apps certainly means there are a lot of crap
and non-sense.

I've used Papervision. It's not too hard to use once you get over the
learning curve. It's very well documented - why I choose to use it over
Away. There are books on Papervision and not any of the other ones, and
I learn best with a paper book beside me.

Hi list,
On a custom IDE button component (AS3 CS4) I have a number of keyframes for
up/over/down etc. Each of these keyframes has a textfield and an icon
(labelText and iconContainer). Mouse event listeners control the movement
between the keyframes.
iconContainer has linkage to a class that
One of the links I read quoted someone in saying something like, Apple
dictating you have to develop with Objective-C is like Microsoft saying
you can only use MS Paint to do artwork. That's a little extreme, but
from what I have seen of Objective-C as a language, I think there is
some truth to

That would be cool. However, Adobe reacting by completely pulling its
product line from Mac OS would have their stockholders in an uproar.
Plus, as my co-worker Matt pointed out, Adobe themselves are primarily a
Mac OS shop.
Second that for Papervision - though you should know Matt and I are on
the same team - so we've discussed Papervision a lot together. He's
right in his assessment. If I did decide to drop PV3D, I'd probably
switch to Away3D. To guess based on what I have read, and only what I
have rolling

After some trial and error, it seems that it's caused because of rescaling
and repositioning code:
When the button is scaled down, I'm scaling the icon down so that it's new
dimensions match the old dimensions, and repositioning it to match its last
location.
Moving the iconContainer into a

Doing something just for spite in the business world is not
really all that smart.
It may not be smart business wise, but when a someone attacks you so
bluntly, its not bad form to stand up for yourself. Companies making
decisions on whats most profitable (like Jobs Adobe, sure)
I'm trying to get the line index at the caret index in a multiline input
TextField, but it doesn't work. Any ideas why?
var tf:TextField; // this is my TextField
tf.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, onChange);
function onChange(event:Event):void
{
var caret:int = tf.caretIndex;
var
You have to do something like caret-1, and do some logic to detect if the
current line contains at least one character, and if it doesn't do a line++,
something along those lines.
My suspicion (which I just confirmed) was that the caret isn't actually
counted as a character in the textField,

I was curious, seems to get pretty ugly logic wise actually, this is the
quickest, easiest solution I came up with:
tf.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, onChange);
function onChange(event:Event):void{
var caret:int = tf.caretIndex;
tf.appendText(_);
var line:int = tf.getLineIndexOfChar(caret);
Thanks for the Theory, Carl - I'd elevate it to a Law: It's about harnessing
the iPhone/iPad momentum at any cost - forwarded your insight to my coworkers.
But I wonder how much of this is based on the old MS vs Apple war - calculated
on the fact there's probably more C++ than ActionScript
