Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Swap 8 bit palettes
If I'm not getting this wrong, this simple function should do the work
(assuming you have your palette defined as an array)
I've tested in Flash 8 (that's why I'm using Number's instead of int's;
for
AS 3.0 I'd go with int's)
function createPaletteData(palette:Array):Object {
var len:Number = palette.length;
var r:Array = [];
var g:Array = [];
var b:Array = [];
var cur:Number;
for(var i:Number = 0;ilen;i++) {
cur = palette[i];
r[i] = cur 16;
g[i] = (cur 0x00ff00) 8;
b[i] = (cur 0xff);
}
return {r:r,g:g,b:b};
}
var test_arr:Array = [0xff005c,0xfc1236,0x001200,0x180055];
var oArrays:Object = createPaletteData(test_arr);
trace(oArrays.r);
trace(oArrays.g);
trace(oArrays.b);

Has anyone by any chance made a function to dump an 8 bit palette to the
arrays the paletteMap function is asking for? :)
I guess the alternative is to create an image that holds the palette as
pixels in rows, and then use getpixel to pull one rgb at a time to
populate
the arrays.

You can do a lot of color transformations with the color matrix.
If you want to swap the PALLETE, oldschool-style, one color at a time,
you just use the paletteMap method of the BitmapData class. It's only
really useful if you don't have antialias on your image or else it
becomes a monumental task to do anything.

It's a simple operation really, I just wonder if Flash supports it.

I guess not?
Is it possible to swap 8 bit palettes directly in Flash?

Re: [Flashcoders] Question on garbage collection
Erik,
it would be something like this:
var c:Clock = new Clock();
getTime()
setInterval(this , 'getTime' , 1000)
function getTime()
{
var tTime:Time = c.getElepasedTime()
trace(tTime.serialize())
delete tTime; // is this neccessary and if so, is tTime = null maybe
better ???
}

Re: [Flashcoders] Question on garbage collection
That all looks fine. There is no memory leak in the code you showed here.
You do not need to delete tTime as it is declared within the scope of the
function and will be marked for deletion as soon as the function is
complete.
If I run the classes (with the line clockdata = new
ClockData() commented out), the memory is stable in the stand alone
player. In flash the memory is slowly going up, but that is because we
are doing a trace each interval.
Note that it takes a few seconds for the memory to be stable.

[Flashcoders] rectangle (not square) based mousefollower?
hey guys - i have a question that i really hope someone can answer
i have a flash banner that i'm working on that is 300px wide x 250px
deep
i have done a mouse follower that tracks the where the mouse is and
then chooses a frame of animation to show so that the people are
always looking at the mouse (roughly)
http://www.receptacledesign.com/portfolio/theonlinestudio/herbalessence/
this gives a square (actually a circle but we'll used a square for
this) sliced into 8
http://www.receptacledesign.com/publicfiles/area1.gif
however, because the actual shape is a rectangle, i think there's an
issue with the movie choosing a frame for the corners as they're
getting cut off like this:

could anyone tell me how i should amend my maths to make my rectangle
slice more like this:

frames of animation that is governed by the blurDifference variable
as well)

I think you may be over-complicating it. If the angles that your people look
are in 45 degree increments then that's how your angles should be calculated
- i.e. using the square.

Re: [Flashcoders] Question on garbage collection
Erik,
thanks for clearing that up for me. In retrospect it makes sense that
the memory builds up with the trace statement. From now on I will test
for memory leak in the standalone player.

var tTime:Time = c.getElepasedTime()
trace(tTime.serialize())
delete tTime; // is this neccessary and if so, is tTime = null
maybe
better ???

Thanks for your reply Bob, it is for AS2. I read a lot of articles
about
it and understand the general concept. That is why I post the question.
If I understood correctly the posted code should not leave any objects
unreferenced and therefor cleared for deleting.
But the memory goes up anyway. I tested it with only this two classes
instantiated and nothing else.
I am hoping somebody can take a look at the code I posted and give me
the reassurence that I am doing things correctly.

[Flashcoders] AS3 workflow - attachMovie migration
Hello all, this is a more general question about how people are organizing their display code, particularly where attachMovie used to be used in AS2. My UI code basically centered on three things: a list of attachMovie() calls to attach and position graphic elements, event handling for interactive elements, and finally tweening everything into place. In AS2 my swfs were always blank, one-frame affairs that built everything dynamically. I would like to stay within this same framework, but I'm not necessarily trying to replicate my AS2 methods. I would like to maintain my habit of keeping everything OFF of the timeline. Using libraries is slightly different now-- obviously better in many respects -- in that everything is its own object. But attaching library objects to the display list is a bit more tedious and I'm considering the best approach for my UI building scripts. Any insights into others' workflow habits would be great.

[Flashcoders] determining url of container page
How can you determine from within Flash (or php on the server when the request for the swf comes in) the url of the page within which a swf is embedded? Thanks! ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] determining url of container page
In AS2 it's _root._url. In AS3 I think it's stage.contentLoaderInfo.url or something like that. Check the docs on the LoaderInfo class.

_root._url returns the url of the swf, not the html page. At 08:38 PM 2/18/2008, Ketan Anjaria wrote: In AS2 it's _root._url. In AS3 I think it's stage.contentLoaderInfo.url or something like that.
