Re: [Flashcoders] Webcam color tracking
Hey guyz, Thank you all for the replies. I've sorta hacked it... Before I do the getColorBoundsRect, I now do a threshold on the image to make the colors that are close to what my LED looks like, 100% red. I then do the getColorBoundsRect on the red and that works just fine. Now I'll try different colors of LEDs to see which works best and to make sure there's nothing else in the camera's eye that has the same color. It would indeed be great to see how Grant did his Mister Glove... But I'm guessing it's somewhere along the line of what I'm doing here...

[Flashcoders] What is profile?
All, From toplevel.as (F8): intrinsic function profile(enable:Boolean):Void; Very annoying, as it is typed as function, then references such as: profile.getName(); In a class does not create compiler errors, as some stupid unknown function named profile exists somewhere. Well, it does not exist, as it is undefined. And there is no mentioning of this in the manuel. So, what does it do? Or, what should it have done? I've removed it now, as there is no such global function, and it just suppresses errors. :| -- Morten Barklund - Lead Developer - TBWA\Play ___ 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] Introducing FZip... ZIP it up!
Did you ever write an image gallery or a game in Flash? Did it bother
you to write rather complicated load queues to load lots of small files
such as image thumbnails or game assets like tiles? Are you working with
big text files and need a reliable way to compress/uncompress them to
save valuable bandwidth?
I'm proud to announce FZip, a cute little Actionscript 3 class i've been
working on together with Max Herkender [1] that enables you to load
standard ZIP archives and extract contained files while the archive is
still loading.

[Flashcoders] Drag and drop with Multiple targets function
Hello,
I am trying to create a concise piece of code for a drag and drop that I can
reuse again and again. The dragged item should be able to land on any target
(but only one target is correct - although I would like it to be easy to set
more than one target).
I want it to be customisable just by changing parameters in functions (so
people that don't know actionscript very well can use it). I am not really an
expert at actionscript so any help would be gratefully received!
This is as far as I have got although the drag items only stay on the correct
targets:
_root.result=0;
function dragSetup(clip, targ) {
clip.onPress = function() {
startDrag(this);
this.beingDragged=true;
};
clip.onRelease = clip.onReleaseOutside=function () {
stopDrag();
this.beingDragged=false;
if (eval(this._droptarget) == targ) {
this.onTarget = true;
_root.result++;
_root.targ.gotoAndStop(2);
} else {
this.onTarget = false;
_root.targ.gotoAndStop(1);
}
};
clip.startX = clip._x;
clip.startY = clip._y;
clip.endX = targ._x;
clip.endY = targ._y;
clip.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (!this.beingDragged !this.onTarget) {
this._x -= (this._x-this.startX)/2;
this._y -= (this._y-this.startY)/2;
} else if (!this.beingDragged this.onTarget) {
this._x -= (this._x-this.endX)/2;
this._y -= (this._y-this.endY)/2;
}
};
}
dragSetup(option1,target1);
dragSetup(option2,target2);
dragSetup(option3,target3);
dragSetup(option4,target4);
dragSetup(option5,target5);
dragSetup(option6,target6);
dragSetup(option7,target7);

Re: [Flashcoders] FLV size
Hi Dennis When you choose your compression rate in Flash Video Encoder, and probably other compression tools, you are choosing it in kilobits per second (kbps). Therefore the filesize is dependent on how long the video is, and not how large the dimesions are. You should notice however that the smaller video will be considerably better quality than the large one.

Re: [Flashcoders] How to get the URL of the page that a moive is embedded on?
Here's a mad thought - if you know Apache/PHP you could do a few tricks server side so that the URL: http://someserver/flash.swf actually points to a PHP file (use mod_rewrite). That PHP file could then capture all sorts of details about the incoming request (referring URL etc.) and log it or take whatever action necessary - then if it's happy serving the SWF, pass the appropriate content type and just pass through the content of the SWF file. No Javascript required. Something worth thinking about, anyway. I may try to make it work. :-) Cheers, Ian On 9/14/06, Jeff Mastropietro [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I need a 100% effective way to get the URL of the page that a flash movie is embedded in.

RE: [Flashcoders] masking a clip which uses the drawing api
Is it not possible to mask a clip into which you draw things using the drawing API? I'm not totally sure about masking, but in general, I think there are some bugs or conflicts with a movie clip drawn upon with the draw API and other elements of the movie. I'm not sure this is as related as you would like, but for example, I had an issue with one of those drawn-on movie clips which had another movie clip as a child, which had a textfield on it. It worked fine until the textfield was updated with new data - then the old text still showed, and the new text was also drawn over the top - so it looked like there were two overlapping textfields. If I separated the textfield from the clip being drawn on, it worked fine. I never could figure out the behavior, but I assumed it had to do with the clips and children of clips drawn on by the draw API and the way the player renders them/redraws them. In another case, portions of v2 components always displayed below clips which were drawn upon - the drawn on clips were always on top. Post again if you figure it out.

[Flashcoders] loading xml
hiya -
I'm trying to load some xml from within an object. a little confused
how to handle callbacks.
inside the class (constructor) i create an XML object, call its load func.
class WireMenu {
private var myXML:XML;
public function WireMenu(xmlPath){
myXML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
myXML.onLoad = this.drawMenu;
myXML.load(xmlPath);
}
all good, but the function that gets called back (drawMenu) only gets
passed a boolean/sucess flag. how do i get at the loaded XML data?
the data also doesnt seem to be within the myXML object either...
that method is like this:
function drawMenu(p1, p2) {
_root.dbg.text = drawing;
trace(WireMenu.drawMenu());
trace(myXML.firstChild);// null
trace(p1); // true: so we were able to load, but where did
it go?
trace(p2); // null
}
tx for any help!!

[Flashcoders] swfProxy
Hi guys, Prompted by a question from Jeff Mastropietro, I had a thought about an easy way of stopping deep linking on .swf files and being certain which page was referring to them/embedding them. I've written a quick filter for Apache/PHP. The idea is that the user makes a request to: http://www.example.com/content/test.swf Internally, a mod_rewrite request turns this into a request to a proxy.php file, which then decides whether the client should have access to the real file or not. If it should have access, it passes the .swf straight back to the client. The proxy can also add no-cache headers etc., which might be handy for development. Or you can wedge in any code you like; tracking etc. You can download it here (only 4K): http://www.wildwinter.net/public/files/swfProxy.zip Hope it's helpful to someone!

RE: [Flashcoders] loading xml
It's a scoping issue. Your XML object is calling the drawMenu function
in its own scope and not within the scope of the WireMenu instance.
Use the delegate class when assigning your onLoad handler. Look up the
documentation on the Delegate class for syntax and arguments.

Pranav Negandhi

[Flashcoders] reflection update
Hi peeps, in the http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/pipermail/flashcoders/2005-June/140802.html i described a method for class name reflection I used. I noticed a while ago it's being used here and there (xray, some arp extensions, etc), so you might want to know it's been updated. It's part of the xflas2 package now, and the updates are: - a fix for the flash prototype chain bug was added (mainly meaning that using ClassFinder.getPath(this) in a superclass will work as its supposed to:)) - it can now be used to retrieve class names for objects, functionnames for functions, and classnames for functions (the class in which they have been defined). - partial package names can be registered now instead of root packages. I know from John that he extended his version of it, to include a kind of global sweep of all the classes, I haven't incorporated that yet, but may do so in the near future. Use at your own risk ofcourse:) Note that I use a kind of caching mechanism, which currently doesnt update itself. If you use a scenario in which main.swf loads sub.swf which contains new classes, I assume sub.swf will register its classes on its own. greetz JC ___ 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] Software Development Position
I am all for job postings, but I gotta tell ya, sometimes they just say silly things. 4 years developing flash. must know AS1 and AS2 Software development person (programmed before flash I presume) Background in other languages and systems Familiarity with design patterns Good understanding of basic database issues Not a position for an artist or designer. Must be willing to relocate to Detroit area. Ok, first of all, most people who have been doing flash for 4+ years are artists or designers. Almost no serious programming was even possible in flash before AS2 so by defining 4 years you are essentially insisting that someone *not* be someone who has a background in other languages and systems. I'm not saying they don't exist at all, but it is such a silly requirement because it inappropriately limits the pool. Of course insisting that someone be an expert in AS1 is even more silly. Is this because their job will be fixing someone else's 5 year old spaghetti code? Then the kicker is that this person must be in the Detroit area or willing to relocate. So in my mind, they are looking for the tiny pool of people that studied computer science but were also interested in animation and so dabbled in flash before it was real programmer ready and are willing to move to one of the most depressed metropolitan areas in the US. And I bet they wanna pay like 70-80k. Why cant people write intelligent job specs. Oh and by the way I am not looking for a job I just find this annoying that neither I nor any of the excellent programmers I know (and I know quite a few) would qualify for this job.

If you are looking for one of the what I suspect is few hundred people who have your qualifications and then you want to move them to detroit you better be paying at *TON* of money.

Almost no serious programming was even possible in flash before AS2 so by defining 4 years I built an entire suite of lead generation and call center applications for a mortgage company in Flash MX using AS 1around 5 years ago which was used on a daily basis by around 100+ employees. I'd say that took some serious programming and a real world app on a fairly large scale! Even before that I built a lighter version in Flash 5 which was pretty robust, there were no components so I had to hack a datagrid of sorts but it did the job at the time, and if you want to go even further back in the time machine, I did a working prototype of a web-based POS system which was fully functional in Flash 4 Using a lot of eval statements, tellTarget . etc. I must admit it really was a pain in the butt!

[Flashcoders] SWFObject 2.0: What new features do you want?
Hey all, I'm working on what will become SWFObject 2.0 (need to update it to support as3 Express Install stuff) and I wanted to get ideas for new features. It currently works fine, and there aren't too many obvious things that could be added, but I wanted to ask and see what sort of 'killer' feature you might want to see in it. So if you are using it and find it lacking in any area, let me know what you would change or add to it. Speak up! So far the only major change is how the Express Install functionality works - because of AS3 I have to put that stuff in a separate swf, so it will be much easier for you all to add that functionality to your site. ___ 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

But the fact is that the whole reason Flex exists is that Adobe couldnt get much real software development going with flash. And even now, though it is much better, there is still a dearth of comp sci educated flash programmers. And most people that have been programming in flash 4+ years dont have a comp sci/structured programming background. Again it doesnt mean there arent any. It just means there arent *many*.

RE: [Flashcoders] Software Development Position
I understand what you mean in regards to AS2 application development. Until MX 2004, Flash as a common mainstream application was pretty unheard of by the general public. That's not to say it didn't happen though... I definitely disagree with the first thing you mentioned about there not being a lot of guys who used Flash as an application platform before AS2. I can look at a lot of guys on this list who've been here for a long time and helped pave the way for the modern Flash Platform. Claus, Grant, Dave, Samuel, Jesse, Brandon etc. have been on this list since I first joined up 6 or 7 years ago and posted several examples of applications over the years to demonstrate the abilities of Flash. Heck even I did a single large app with Flash 4 (Whatta pain!), 4 more with Flash 5, and than a ton since with every other version... The one thing that I do find somewhat laughable is the necessity to state that a CompSci background is important. For all intents and purposes, by education I'm a designer.

Re: [Flashcoders] Huge block of scrolling text: Choppy animation.
The fastest way to animate this is to use runtime bitmap caching, mixed
with the scrollRect property.
// this is almost pseudo-code, untested, but you should get the idea
r = new Rectangle(0,0,width,height);
container.cacheAsBitmap = true;
container.scrollRect = r;
container.onEnterFrame = function(){
//modify the scrollRect to move the text
r.y += 1;
container.scrollRect = r;
}
This will convert the text to one big bitmap, and use fast pixel copying
to display just the rect you want.
Peace

Its just statistics. It has taken a while to get flash established as a platform. Even now, the flash programmer numbers are weak relative to the market. The community is small.

Re: [Flashcoders] Hex to HSB
No, pretty much the way hsb -- rgb works, you need to have the numbers
separate. You could probably create some awkward transform that tries really
hard not to break them up, but it would end up being a lot more complicated,
and not worth it.
Besides, going from 0xRRGGBB to 0xRR, 0xGG, 0xBB is very fast (just 3 ANDs
and 2 bitshifts).
// takes a color in the form 0xRRGGBB returns an object with the fields r,
g, and b
function hex2rgb(c:Number):Object
{
return {
r:(c16)0xff,
g:(c8)0xff,
b:c0xff
};
}
// takes an object with fields r, g, and b, returns a color in the form
0xRRGGBB
function rgb2hex(c:Object):Number
{
return (c.r16) | (c.g8) | (c.b);
}
and then here's a quick test:
var c = hex2rgb(0xabcdef);
trace(r=0x+c.r.toString(16)+ g=0x+c.g.toString(16)+
b=0x+c.b.toString(16));
trace(color=0x+rgb2hex(c).toString(16));
then, assuming your rgb2hsv and hsv2rgb functions take an object as input,
you could do:
// read in hsv from a pixel
var hsv:Object = rgb2hsv(hex2rgb(bmp.getPixel(x,y)));
// transform hsv.h, hsv.s, hsv.v, etc
hsv.h /= 2;
hsv.s = 50;
hsv.v = Math.random()*100;
// put back our transformed pixel
bmp.setPixel(x,y,rgb2hex(hsv2rgb(hsv)));

Now, this is all theoretical, but I don't think flash 8 is fast enough to do
this calculation on a real-time video of any decent size. flash 9 might be
able to handle it.
But if you just want to do some color transforms, i'd suggest looking at the
built in transform classes instead of trying to do it yourself
pixel-by-pixel. These should be much faster, because the transform code will
be native, instead of in actionscript. They are pretty flexible, you can do
a lot with them.

OK - seeing as you asked so nicely
Instead of splitting it up into 3 different components R, G and B then
doing a calculation on each of these in turn to find H S and B ,applying
some transform on H and B and then turning these back into R G and B - then
in turn combining this to find a flash friendly hex value - I'd like to know
if it's possible to go
Hex - Hsb - transform - Hex
or to find HSB from hex do I have to split out the RGB components?
Any clearer?

Thanks, but I was hoping this would be possible without having to
convert to RGB first - I basically want to do pixel by pixel colour
transform on a copy of a video whilst it's being played so it needs to
be ultra efficient.
I'm sorry... but explain to my how a hex number of the form 0xRRGGBB
isn't _already_ an RGB value? :P

Re: [Flashcoders] Flashdevelop and moviecliploader
I use MovieClipLoader all the time, and I just did a quick test (mtasc 1.12,
standalone flash player 9, windows xp sp2):
file Test.as
---
class Test {
static function main(root:MovieClip) {
var txt:TextField = root.createTextField('txt', 0, 0, 0, 200, 200);
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
txt.text = (loaderObj:+mcl);
}
}
commandline
--
mtasc -version 8 -header 200:200:10 -swf test.swf -main Test.as
Output
---
loaderObj:[object Object]
so it seems to work fine for me. not sure what your issue is.

traces out loaderObj: and then nothing. Is there something PECULIAR i

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash upload problems
I've had the same problem with the empty uploads, using PHP on the server. For every file I upload, flash makes 2 requests, the first request with 0 data, and the second one with the actual file. I think it's been replicated by many people. The solution is to just ignore invalid uploads on the server. -David R On 9/15/06, Michael Stuhr [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Muzak schrieb: http://www.osflash.org/pipermail/osflash_osflash.org/2006-February/007266.html *bookmark* This has nothing to do with Struts by the way.

Re: [Flashcoders] Software Development Position
Hank, you don't know what you are talking about. You may be late to the party, but that doesn't mean that everyone was. There are a lot of people (not billions, but a good number) who meet/exceed YOUR requirements who were working in Flash before AS 2 was an option. Seriously, why do you think this list exists? Why do you think AS 2 exists? Maybe the people in your flash programming study group in New York City are there to learn from people like you, and the dozens of Flash programmers with comp sci backgrounds in NYC don't attend your meetings because your meetings are beneath them. I have zero interest in moving to Troy, MI, but those job requirements are not unreasonable. Jason On Sep 15, 2006, at 4:01 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Again it doesnt mean there arent any.

Oh, I forgot, it takes like zillions of people before you can get a list going. Cant argue with that. Why do you think AS 2 exists?

Nah. I have zero interest in moving to Troy, MI, but those job requirements are not unreasonable. You're right. Not if you are uninterested in filling the position. I would love to hear one person who is qualified say they are submitting a resume and would take the job if offered. You havent said you think you are qualified, but presuming for the sake of argument you are, you have proved my point by saying that you arent interested.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash upload problems
According to adobe, the double upload thing is not a bug. It was part of the design. Supposedly to make sure that there is really a server there before starting a big upload. It seems to me this was a *horrible* design decision, but I guess its not a bug since it was their intent. But there are subtle differences between the way flash does things and what is generally expected. I ended up using some server side upload handling code from servlets.com but I had to modify it to get it to work with flash. So I empathize with the backend guys that say they cant get it working. Without server side changes I would have failed too. But the struts issue doesnt make any sense if the problem, as they believe, is in the flash upload code. The bottom line is the flash code is a little bit err... off. So if you want stuff to work ya gotta tweak the server side code or not use flash.
