Re: [Flashcoders] frame rate guidelines

2008-02-22 Thread Bob Leisle

Hi Dave,

Probably the best guideline to use for frame rate is the capacity of 
your end users' machines, that and the fact that the Stage.frameRate 
setting is a speed limit, not a guarantee. The processor capacity and 
the complexity of your swf in terms of processor usage (calculations, 
redraws, etc.) will determine what speed is actually reached. If you are 
doing a lot of animation, you'll want a reliable frame rate for your 
intended users. If you're doing forms only, frame rate is nearly irrelevant.
15 fps is reliable for most programs running on all but the slowest 
machines.

30 fps is reliable on most modern machines.
If your program is fairly easy on the processor and your expected users 
have faster machines, 60+ is probably ok, but you may want to allow for 
the cases where that speed is not possible.
Bottom line is, you're going to have to find your own balance in how 
much "cool" your users can afford.


hth,
Bob

AW: [Flashcoders] frame rate guidelines

2008-02-22 Thread Patrick Jankun
You will find the answers in the Documentation of class flash.display.Stage

 "When a MovieClip is playing, it progresses along its timeline at a
speed 
dictated by the frame rate of the SWF file. Alternatively, you can override 
this setting by setting the Stage.frameRate property in ActionScript."


Hope this helps, never tried to change the frameRate when a movie was
playing

General Guidelines are, that 30 frames looks good, but 60 looks better ;]

Re: [Flashcoders] lightweight AS2 combobox?

It wouldn't take much to get that working, unless you needed the keyboard to
work & solve any focus issues. if its a click to open, scroll & select, you
can do that with a mc, your own scrollbar & a mask.

depends on how much functionality you really need.

You could make a duplicate of the shape, gradient fill it with white from .5
to 0 in the middle like you want, and apply blendmode of add to it.

If you’re developing Flash sites and want to speed up your Flash 
workflow with rapid development and don’t want to have to learn a 
complicated framework API, give Gaia a test drive. :)

Re: [Flashcoders] Graphic design universities

2008-02-22 Thread Pedro Kostelec
Thanks guys. I like your choices, specially Cory Petosky's, but i would
prefer somethink in europe or north america, countries in which people speak
english or french or perhaps spanish (the languages i speak). I believe all
the universitys you recommended to me are great, but the problem is the
language too. I am not going to learn one more foreign language in 2 years!!
And i wonder if they accept the international bachelors degree or not.

Thanks

Hello Norman,

You can see example of moving point along curved path here:

(6 and 7 example)

Sourcecode here:

Re: [Flashcoders] Framerate performance

2008-02-22 Thread Martin Klasson
Hi Stevensacks,

I ended up at your site through the flashcoders-list.
As I do enjoy having an efficient workflow, or wish that I have - I got
your jsfl-scripts.

but I wonder why you, as you are a coder want the same name of
the libraryitem also on the instance - since one libraryitem can
be having mutiple instances.

This is what I have done (having two input alerts):

if (fl.getDocumentDOM().selection.length > 0)
{
var libraryName = prompt("Library Name", "");
var mcName = prompt("MC Name", "");
if(mcName == "") mcName = libraryName;
if (libraryName != null)
{
var newMc = fl.getDocumentDOM().convertToSymbol("movie
clip", libraryName, "top left");
fl.getDocumentDOM().selection[0].name = mcName;
fl.getDocumentDOM().enterEditMode("inPlace");
var tl = fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline();
tl.insertFrames(2);
tl.convertToKeyframes(0, 2);
tl.addNewLayer("LABELS");
tl.convertToKeyframes(0, 2);
tl.layers[tl.currentLayer].frames[0].name = "_up";
tl.layers[tl.currentLayer].frames[1].name = "_over";
tl.layers[tl.currentLayer].frames[2].name = "_down";
tl.addNewLayer("AS");
tl.layers[tl.currentLayer].frames[0].actionScript =
"stop();n";
fl.getDocumentDOM().exitEditMode();
}
}
