RE: [Flashcoders] Is it possible?
It's possible and common. My opinion is use xml/. Why mess with all that other junk (I've never liked AMF)? Database Web Service XML Flash or in reverse for whatever purpose. You can create a node like class that extends movieclip with xml functionality which knows about it's children and passes the xml on to them for them to parse and initialize their children, and their childrens children if that makes sense. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Glen Pike Sent: Thursday, March 01, 2007 1:08 PM To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Is it possible?

By default flash would be setup to trigger the (in this case) WEB SERVICE and return an ARRAY that contains the info for that profile and also display the results It's not a problem to delegate the arrays out and create container to display the friends list or whatever comes back from the web service in an array if you would know by default how many friends someone had or if, let's say you were only allowed to display 4 friends, but everything will dynamically loaded so during a day it number of friends could change, just like my space. // Here's the Problem So is it possible that after you have received the arrays from the database (web service) and looping through the array to get the actual data and let flash create a container/containers dynamically and delegate and name them depending on the results from the web service call?

Re: [Flashcoders] Set Interval Question
10 seconds. In that 10 second interval, I load, fade in, pause on, and fade out, that image. That is working mostly fine. Accept I have a seperate setInterval starting for the images fade in and fade out functions (1.25 sec * 2). And have it pausing for the remainder which should be 7.5 seconds. Problem is it doesn't work out, and by the 4th or 5th image it is noticably offset. I am guessing this is because of the time it takes to process the code, didn't seem likely at first, but It is not off by much, and it seems to be increasing marginally which means that not much, becomes significant. Long story short, well...point being that I want to be able to call the main timer, and tap into it at 0-1.25 seconds and then again at 7.5 -10 seconds to run the image fade in and fade out. Can I do this, from Honestly, just use any other tweening extension instead. They'll mostly (all?) let you use delays that are properly synced without having to resort to setIntervals at all. You can chose MC Tween, lmc tween, Tweener, Fuse Kit, Animation Package, etc. You'll be doing a favor to yourself when you stop using setIntervals and complex events for something that's supposed to be so simple.

RE: [Flashcoders] Dynamic Flash
Posting the same question under three different subjects won't get your question answered any quicker. Flash is perfectly capable of CRUD communication with a database and displaying it however you like. You're asking for advice on how to set up a relational database and how to write inner join SQL statements, and then how to send that data to Flash. Only one part of that has anything to do with Flash, and it's probably one of the most basic things you can do with Flash (displaying data). I suggest you buy an introduction to Flash book and an introduction to relational database book and get to reading. ___ 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

Basically, your method does what it says on the tin (but does show a

Maybe I'm too thick to see how to do it although I like the idea.

Hi Andy,
Actually there is a way, though I think it's a metaphysical law that
somebody has to say it's impossible before an answer appears.
I had to do this so that folk could copy paste with ctrl-c ctrl-v and
have the text modified before put in atext field but not allow a
right-click-paste into the text field that could mess up the rich text
properties otherwise.
I only did it for one textfield, though I don't see any reason why you
wouldn't be able to apply the same idea everywhere.
The basic idea is that you create a custom right click menu and trap
it's onSelect event. When that event gets triggered, you create an
editable textfield and set the focus to it, since the object that
received the event no longer has focus, the right click menu goes away.
It was a while ago but I believe this was the snippet that did the
trick.
public function onLoad() {
var menu_cm:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
menu_cm.hideBuiltInItems();
menu_cm.onSelect = function(item:Object,item_menu:Object){
GhostObj.createTextField(Paste_txt, 1, 0, 0, 10, 20);
GhostObj.Paste_txt.type = input;
Selection.setFocus(eval(GhostObj.Paste_txt));
}
Capture_txt.menu = menu_cm;
...
Let me know if it works for you,

Save yourself. It's not possible especially in a .swf. They removed

I even tried putting in in a C# windows application with complicated
scripting to toggle a layer above it and faking mouse events that I
wanted to send. I found you can't send fake events to flash. You
would need access to the unmanaged code area (for other readers).
It's especially not possible with a swf or an application unless that
application is a Zinc app or if you shell out some big moolah to Adobe

[Flashcoders] Importing SWF file into HTML web page
Hi, I have a flash web site that I would like to import into a dedicated area within an HTML site as a SWF file. This SWF file will essentially work like a general web site. It has a navigation menu with buttons and sub-buttons. The sub-buttons load swf files and or movie clips within the main swf file. My question is can this flash web site work without any issues if is imported into an HTML site? Or are there limitations to viewing Flash within HTML web sites? About the HTML site: Outside of hosting the mini-flash web site, the HTML site serves as a dashboard for information/content. It aggregates a calendar that's coming from Microsoft Outlook. It also shows a list of links to other web sites. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

[Flashcoders] more _lockroot woes
Hi, I asked a question a few weeks ago about a strange phenoma with _lockroot, losing the reference to the _root I really needed. I seemed to have narrowed it down a little further. Flash seems to lose the way when you reference _root from an instance of a class that is not a movieclip. Especially when that class was already loaded into the parent swf and then used from the sub.swf.

Instead I sent anyone who asked for it an unrestricted PDF as long as they could prove they bought a copy of the printed edition. The result? The book keeps on selling quite well 4 years after it was published and I managed to build pretty close relationship with my readers. I could safely say I have fans, which is a new experience for me.

On 3/2/07, Karina Steffens [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If your mc's reg point is top left: mc._x = _root.xmouse - mc._width/2 mc._y = _root.ymouse - mc._height/2 Incidentally, there's a neat trick you can do to speed up the calculation AND ensure that the result is an integer (so that the clip is aligned to the pixel). It's called bitwise shift right: mc._x = _root.xmouse - (mc._width 1); mc._y = _root.ymouse - (mc._height 1); The benefit in speed is probably negligible in this case. In a test where I ran a calculation a million times, shift right was about 200ms faster than division. (I wonder if the difference might be greater in AS3, though) However, if you also have to constrain to an integer (e.g., using Math.floor()), then shift right is over twice as fast as using Math.floor and division. Basically, whenever multiplying or dividing by a power of 2, you can use shift left (for multiplication) or shift right (for division) and get a faster result that is automatically constrained to an integer. x 1 is equivalent to Math.floor(x / 2) x 2 is equivalent to Math.floor(x / 4) x 3 is equivalent to Math.floor(x / 8) x 4 is equivalent to Math.floor(x / 16) x 1 is equivalent to Math.floor(x * 2) x 2 is equivalent to Math.floor(x * 4) x 3 is equivalent to Math.floor(x * 8) x 4 is equivalent to Math.floor(x * 16) You get the idea -- T.

then

It depends where the registration point of your clip is. If it's at top-left or centre, then the calculation is simple - see all the other posts in the thread.

setTimeout works just like setInterval except it only runs once.
Unfortunately it's not in the intrinsic classes, so either set it up locally
in your intrinsic class definitions (never a good idea), or call it using
array notation; _global [setTimeout].

You should rethink your approach,
I believe it will be easier to just
start a fade in,
wait 10 seconds,
fade out.
When the fade out is complete start over with another picture.
untested code below :
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var curID = 0;
fadeIn();
function fadeIn() {
curID++;
var curMC:MovieClip = image + curID;
myTween = new Tween(curMC, _alpha, Strong.easeIn, 0, 100, 1.5,
false); // or something like that
myTween.onMotionFinished = Delegate.create(this, pauseImage);
}
function pauseImage() {
setTimeout(fadeOut, 7000);
}
function fadeOut() {
var curMC:MovieClip = image + curID;
myTween = new Tween(curMC, _alpha, Strong.easeOut, 100, 0,
1.5,
false);
myTween.onMotionFinished = Delegate.create(this, fadeIn);
if (curID 6) curID = 0; // we start back at the first image
}
HTH !

Subject: [Flashcoders] Set Interval Question
Hello Again,
I have a setInterval issue/question, here it is. I set a main timer.
10
seconds. In that 10 second interval, I load, fade in, pause on, and
fade
out, that image. That is working mostly fine. Accept I have a seperate
setInterval starting for the images fade in and fade out functions (1.25
sec
* 2). And have it pausing for the remainder which should be 7.5
seconds.
Problem is it doesn't work out, and by the 4th or 5th image it is
noticably
offset. I am guessing this is because of the time it takes to process
the
code, didn't seem likely at first, but It is not off by much, and it
seems
to be increasing marginally which means that not much, becomes
significant.
Long story short, well...point being that I want to be able to call the
main
timer, and tap into it at 0-1.25 seconds and then again at 7.5 -10
seconds
to run the image fade in and fade out. Can I do this, from
variableName = SetInterval (function, 1);
use the running timer for other functions?
Thanks again.
If you need clarification about just what the heck I am trying to say.
I
can send in some code.
Thanks,
Paul Vdst

It's called bitwise shift right: mc._x = _root.xmouse - (mc._width 1); mc._y = _root.ymouse - (mc._height 1); The benefit in speed is probably negligible in this case. In a test where I ran a calculation a million times, shift right was about 200ms faster than division. (I wonder if the difference might be greater in AS3, though) However, if you also have to constrain to an integer (e.g., using Math.floor()), then shift right is over twice as fast as using Math.floor and division. Basically, whenever multiplying or dividing by a power of 2, you can use shift left (for multiplication) or shift right (for division) and get a faster result that is automatically constrained to an integer. x 1 is equivalent to Math.floor(x / 2) x 2 is equivalent to Math.floor(x / 4) x 3 is equivalent to Math.floor(x / 8) x 4 is equivalent to Math.floor(x / 16) x 1 is equivalent to Math.floor(x * 2) x 2 is equivalent to Math.floor(x * 4) x 3 is equivalent to Math.floor(x * 8) x 4 is equivalent to Math.floor(x * 16) You get the idea ___ 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] Cache Killer... is it bulletproof ???
I've read that appending a random query string ( example : new Date.getTime() ) to the URL of assets (images, sounds, XML files, etc.) loaded at runtime in the Flash Player ensures that these assets are always loaded from the server instead of being loaded from the cache. I've tested this on Windows XP in IE5, IE5.5, IE6, FF1, FF1.5, FF2, Opera 8, Opera 8.5, Opera 9, Netscape 7 and Netscape 8 and it seems to work very well. However, I haven't been able to test this on a Mac or on Linux. Is this method bulletproof (it works in all browsers on all operating systems)?

Re: [Flashcoders] more _lockroot woes
Yes, I've noticed that too. Classes are only loaded once, so if swf A uses class Foo, and then loads swf B into a lockroot, if swf B also has a class Foo, it's going to be using the class defined in swf A (with the wrong root). Note: it's not just the interpretation of _root. class Foo from swf A might be a totally different (older, for example) version, but that's what swf B will see. --Brian On 3/2/07, Hans Wichman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I asked a question a few weeks ago about a strange phenoma with _lockroot, losing the reference to the _root I really needed.
