[Flashcoders] transparent background in Projector (Screenweaver)
Hi all, i've made projector (walking insect) with transparent background, and it's killing all my CPU. there is 3 pieces of them, i've tried just 3 squares and it is the same, i can see on my comp redrawing sprites and have 50% CPU (dual processor, 2 GHZ) on other computers, redrawing is not visible, but 100% CPU (or 50% for dual) I think the problem is creating dynamic mask (flash with desktop), but I dont know how to fix it. Should I use other projector then Screenweaver? Btw, i found same problem with some GameHouse game, when it was in fullscreen, all was right, but when i switch off fullscreen and game was in transparent rectangle (desktop was visible outside the game), mouse was flickering, CPU full, i almost cant do anything but another games was ok after switching off fullscreen, so this can be problem with some settings maybe... i dont know, maybe some games was Shockwave, some Flash, really dont know, but I think 3 movings squares on desktop should not take 100% CPU Can someone advice me, what's is the problem?

RE: [Flashcoders] HELP : File Access in FLASH
1: Take a look at SWFStudio as an alternative projector creation software. www.northcode.com 2: As for the different levels. Using levels makes the flash player treat each movie in a different level as separate movies. They cannot access each others libraries or code. I had to use levels as a workaround in the past for using assets in the libraries of dynamically loaded swf's but this led to more issues. Best thing is to not use levels for loading movies if you need to share assets from loaded libraries (I am assuming this is why you are using levels) you should look into using shared libraries. If you import one movieclip from a shared library into the host library include that shared movieclip on the timeline it will force all other available assets in that library to become available in the host movie. 3: are you including the path to the mdm intrinsic classes in the publish settings for your movie? The only reason I can think that the movie will not compile on the lines you use the mdm classes is that It cannot see them.

Hi, why when i compile swf that uses mdm sentences it compiles with error? :'( i will cry! Try following the instructions on this forum post: http://www.mdmforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=11941 It shows you how to install the mdm class package - this should get rid of any compilation errors from mdm code. For whatever reason Zinc doesn't install these classes to your classpath as part of its own install - so your compiler will naturally complain.

[Flashcoders] optimizing an animation?
hi! i have a performance problems with a site. the site has four content areas with navigation between them, so that when you click on an icon the section zooms in from and icon size to full screen and the current sections zooms out at the same time. zooming and positioning is done with zeh fernando's mc_tween. the problem here is simple: the animation chokes. it almost looks as if there was a start frame, an end one and two or three frames displayed in between (it takes around a second). also there is a section with a news. news are diplsayed as list of titles. when clicked an item expands pushing the list down and the news copy shows in this space. textfields are created dynamically as the news are read form an xml file. backgound and buttons are attached dynamically too. the problem: it chokes too. this is weirded as tweening is very bad for the first time but then i smooths. any hints about how to address this? how to optmimize animation? what to use and what to avoid? thanks, michal ___ 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] Text arching
Hello, I have following question. I saw nike's unifrm builder, Nike Uniform Builder(http://www.niketeam.com/v2/new/Sport...T=BBMCAT=UNI), they built uniform generator using Flash, the only thing wondering me is, how did they manage to arch the text, if anybody has any clue then I would be very happy to see little bit of action scripting. I want different arching with click of a button or something like that, I am attaching a sample of arching that I am looking for!

Re: [Flashcoders] optimizing an animation?
I've seen this mostly when the MC being tweened either has a lot of vector information or large (physically) bitmaps. - If it's all vector being zoomed, either optimize and cut down on the vectors or, create a new frame in the MC with 'some elements' only, goto that frame while zooming, do a callback function on the MC_tween to then go back to the frame you want once the tween is complete - If it's bitmaps being zoomed, they may have too much information to render quickly - try reducing the amount of pixels in the bitmap (like 50% scale) then stretch it 200% when it's dynamically attached - this will lower the quality but speed up the zoom (you can try this just to test if it is the bitmap causing the problem). - In general, disable elements one at a time and keep testing the movie to find the offending elements that are causing the chugging.

Re: [Flashcoders] optimizing an animation?
Another approach is to switch to a single bitmap for the whole MC, scale and tween, then switch back to your vector version once the tween has finished.

Its called first and is faster because its invoked as soon as you have data, and before you actually parse or process the data. onData is always gonna be called first. onLoad is called when the call has totally completed, there fore at the end of the process, whereas onData is at the beginning.

Re: [Flashcoders] Fjax... does this seem ridiculous to anyone else?
It can do limited cross domain xml loading (obeying crossdomain.xml policy files of course), unlike the JavaScript XmlHttpRequest object. So if nothing else, it could work as a client side proxy, for those that can't run server side proxies, or just want less traffic to run through their server.

Re: [Flashcoders] Re: loadvars vs xml onData
The tests i ran were something like this: create an xml object add a callback for its onData 30 times, get the same file from the server and get an average of the time between the load() call and the onData invocation. repeat for loadvars compare results. I've done tests against a server that might as well be called local, but on average loadvars gave me around 20 ms, while xml gave me between 25 and 30. I know loadvars extends object, wheras xml extends xmlNode which again extends object, so i don't know.. I always thought all classes that load content and have an onData event inherit the same functionality but override on the onLoad... - Andreas Mike wrote: That is really weird.

Re: [Flashcoders] Loading external SWFs with a different frame rate
I don't think it's possible to run the loaded swf at a different frame rate from the container, but I have read (and I even got it to work once) that you can force the parent clip to take the frame rate of the loaded swf, by embedding a streaming (I think) sound file (even if it's silence) into the swf that will be loaded. I'm pretty sure that if you can get this to work, it will slow down the parent swf's frame rate though. Kevin N.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash for forums
I vote vBulletin. It's under active development and gets better all the time. It's already very very smooth and quite powerful. Worth the $100 or whatever they ask for it. phpbb is a great open source effort, but just isn't as nice or powerful overall overall.

Re: [Flashcoders] Text arching
I'd like to recommend Text2Curve component for this: http://gousable.com/flash/text2curve.html It has a lot of advantages over TextOnCircle Weyert mentioned: - can place text along ellipse or sine, not only circle - more methods to manipulate this text - can be used in Flash IDE, even rotated/distorted there. - some more :-) Recently version 1.6 was released with more useful features. BTW, reminding some recent threads in this list: - it manages to evenly distribute objects (letters) along the ellipse - starting point can be moved (along the ellipse) at any distance. == Quotation: == === New in version 1.6 (see samples 6 and 7): - Center Text parameter allows text to be centered by the top or bottom point of the curve (round or ellipse). - Letter Spacing parameter adds some more space between letters (in pixels). - Start Point parameter allows you to change the distance along the curve (in pixels) from 0 point (marked with cross) to the first letter. Some kind of indent. - Some properties added to access via Actionscript - Updated help system === Description: Text2Curve Flash component allows you to place dynamic text along one of pre-defined curves. Unlike similar tools in programs as Illustrator, CorelDRAW or Freehand, it allows doing this dynamically, e.g. as a movie is playing. Text along the curve (circle, ellipse, wave and so on) is broadly used by designers to create artistic effects. Can be used as a component in Flash MX 2004 or later. Resulting movie require Flash Player 7 or later. The package contains complete Help system with API documentation and samples. === Features: - Place dynamic text along one of pre-defined curves. Broad range of parameters can approximate almost any curve you need. - This text remains dynamic and can be changed at runtime. - Use your favorite font (just embed it). - Interactive Live Preview. Edit Text2Curve component in Flash IDE like any other movie clip. No programming needed. - Using class constructor, you can create Text2Curve objects from scratch at runtime with Actionscript. - Scale, rotate and distort text along the curve in Flash IDE or at runtime via Actionscript. - Animate text along the curve either with timeline-based motioin tween or Actionscript. - Help system with illustrations and API documentation. You can also dynamically: - Change text to be shown; - Change text or curve's parameters and then update the view using redraw() method. -- Best regards, GregoryN http://GOusable.com Flash components development.

From the online samples, I don't see any demonstration of the claimed ability to distort the text, just to place the letters along different curves. Am I missing something?
