Re: Re: [Flashcoders] Progressivelly download (and show) a jpg image
Please people, update your facts, since Flash Player 8, Flash can dynamicly load progressive jpgs, along several other image formats as stated in a previous message.. Yet I don't know if Flash can be triggered to show the image displaying progressivly, In my experience when I just do a simple loader with a MovieClipLoader, it is displayed after it is completely loaded, not a second before :(. good luck, Joeri On 7/2/06, Marlon Harrison <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I may be wrong, but I think the only way to achieve that effect is to simulate it once the image is completely loaded.

Re: [Flashcoders] Issue with reapeat test publish
Thank you, Dave, for your response. While I realize that I am simulating download, this does not produce the problem that I am speaking of. I still get the same issue irrespective if I am under download simulation or not. I can close the window, re-publish, and then select "simulate download"... and everything will work fine with correct download simulation. If I then press ctl-enter again, no dice... the .swf will just sit as if none of my classes have been loaded or processed. I *have* been closing and republishing each time, obviously that's the only thing I can do until I find what is causing this issue. If anyone can provide any more information as to the root of this problem it would be greatly appreciated. Just to clarify what has already been said, Ctrl+EENTER once compiles and run, again runs using the bandwidth profiler, and again goes back to running it normally, and so on and so forth. If you're having problems even when running it normally - things that should happen aren't happening - then one common caveat is that you have some class that depends on initialization... running by Ctrl+ENTER again doesn't properly reset some variables (including all _global variables) so sometimes it's as if a class isn't recreated or restarted. This problem can also appear even if you're not using AS2, because like I said, it's just that it won't reset _global variables. That just happens to include static vars inside classes. There's no usual workaround that I know - personally, I have always had to take that into account when creating my classes, but it's something that changes from class to class so there's no common solution. - Zeh ___ 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

Re: [Flashcoders] Issue with reapeat test publish
Hi guys, I'm not 100% certain, but I think that the issue has to do with the root level name space not refreshing. I think that global variables and/or classes that have static information may not be reloaded completely. You can probably test that theory by hard coding a static var in a class and tracing it at the beginning of the movie, and then using code to change the value. Then do control+enter again and see if it reset back to the original. I think if the class is completely instance based (not a singleton and no 'static' members) then you probably won't have the issue.

RE: [Flashcoders] duplicateMovie / setInterval problem
You need to dispense with the for loop (which creates all your duplicates in one shot) and use setInterval to call a function instead (dupMC() below.)

Has anyone here implemented tabbed browser support in Flash? i.e. links in Flash content that can be opened in a new tab?

The problems are ... 1) With getURL(), how would you specify "new tab"? 2) With anchors in htmlText, Flash Player provides the context menu. The Flash Player browser plug-ins include in the context menu the option "Open in new window". The freestanding Flash Player omits this option. (fyi ... a swf with an anchor in htmlText can be found here: www.oman3d.com/tutorials/flash/loadvars_bc/ ) 3) With Javascript, as a Flash/ActionScript developer I don't know how to code this solution. (fyi ... I did some google searchs on this with no luck.) If anyone can point me to a Javascript code solution, it would be much appreciated. Note: For those from Adobe that read this list ... With IE7's release and it's support for tabbed browsing, if Flash Player provides no support for opening links in tabs it will be increasing apparent that Flash Player is essentially unaware of tabbed browers.) ___ 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

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 - why no properties in interfaces?

So I'm wondering what's the reason that Adobe still hasn't added interface support for properties. After all Java has them and even haXe supports them too. I know there is some workaround by using inheritance but that is rather sub-optimal in my opinion. Does somebody know an answer for this and maybe has a good solution?

Re: [Flashcoders] Progressivelly download (and show) a jpg image
You can 'fake' something by downloading a very small version of the image (like 3K) and scale it to the final size, once that has loaded, display, then start loading the full size version. I've done this before with very large file sized images. You could even use a PHP script using the GD library to generate your small version from the final image on the fly so you don't need 2 versions of each image.

Re: [Flashcoders] Progressivelly download (and show) a jpg image
It's possible.. but not using loadMovie.. you'd have to make something serverside that read the image and sent it byte by byte.. kinda like a reverse on those samples that saved images to the server using bitmapdata. definitely not an optimal way to load an image. maybe there is a better way in as3 with bytearrays, but i don't know enough about that yet :) -- Michael On Jul 2, 2006, at 11:50 AM, Marc Hoffman wrote: I might be wrong, but I don't think you can download progressive jpgs, therefore you won't have anything to display until the jpg is completely loaded.

Re: [Flashcoders] Ajax and ActionScript 2.0
Could somebody share with me 1 example where "AJAX"/XMLHttpRequest succeeds where Flash fails ? The term AJAX is thrown around loosly these days to sometimes mean anything JavaScript. I've seen both Flash using JavaScript and JavaScript using Flash (FJAX) for server communication. I can't say how much either solution makes sense, but at least they're working together instead of succumbing to the old Flash vs. JavaScript and Which is Better? debate. There are so many useful things they can do together. Look for the Browser Power for Flash session at the next FlashForward. It is all about Flash and JavaScript and some really cool stuff they can do ... well worth your time. There will also be some previews on the subject coming soon to uFlash.org.

Re: [Flashcoders] Accurate duration info from the Sound Class

[Flashcoders] symbol drag in library crashes Flash API
I'm working on an inherited project. To start organizing things, I created a folder in the Flash library and started dragging movieclips into it. The API immediately crashed during the drag. This happened over and over, even when copying all frames to a new .fla. It was not happening with any other movies. I discovered that removing one particular bitmap from the library eliminated the crashing problem. It's a 10x10 pixel gray gradient jpg that the last author was stretching about 800% to create a shaded border. I first tried exporting just the bitmap from Flash, as a png, and importing the png to replace the original jpg, but that didn't help. So it wasn't the jpg itself, but maybe something about how it was being used. But replacing all instances of the bitmap with a gradient vector, and then deleting the bitmap from the library, fixed the problem. I'm baffled and would like to understand it. Does anyone here know what exactly was going wrong? - Marc Hoffman ___ 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
