[Flashcoders] ComboBox not dropping down in browser?

2008-10-31 Thread Preston Parris
I have a combo box that I just styled, everything works perfectly in the
flash ide, all of the data populates, it drops down, is styled fine, Now
when I open it in the browser, I click to drop it down, nothing happens. If
I click it then tab to the box it shows the yellow outline of wear the
content should be yet nothing is there, also my font styling for this box
seems to have no effect in the browser, yet like I said in the ide,
everything is perfect.
thank you to anyone who can help, I will continue my struggle, haha.

RE: [Flashcoders] ComboBox not dropping down in browser?

2008-10-31 Thread Karim Beyrouti
The problem with the drop down not working could be you removing some needed
assets from the styling MovieClips. I suggest if you need to remove some
bits of components you just test a lot and try to set the alpha to 0 from
the palette if you need to remove something... 

As for the fonts - I had some issues. This code worked for me (AS3 FP9):
Note GothamMedium is embedded in the lib.

code

var tClass:Class= getDefinitionByName(GothamMedium) as Class;
Font.registerFont(tClass);

var tf:TextFormat   = new TextFormat();
tf.font = Gotham Medium;
tf.size = 12;
tf.bold = false;

cmb_mc.dropdown.setRendererStyle(embedFonts , true);
cmb_mc.dropdown.setRendererStyle(textFormat , tf);
cmb_mc.textField.setStyle(fontFamily , Gotham Medium );
cmb_mc.textField.setStyle(embedFonts , true );

dob_txt.embedFonts = true;
dob_txt.setTextFormat( tf);
StyleManager.setStyle( textFormat , tf)

/code


Hope this helps



Karim

It's possible that if your movie is a one frame timeline, you need to
initiate all the ComboBox params after one frame.  I can only speak for
V2 components in AS2, but I have always needed to set up components
after one refresh.

[Flashcoders] Times per minute, and how much, data can pass to server without crippling it?

2008-10-31 Thread Anthony Pace
How many times per minute do you think it would be safe for a user to 
send this data to the server?  So they can have the most up to date 
information possible.


I am trying to avoid locking a file based on the user that is viewing 
it, because I want everyone to be able to view it at the same time, and 
I want to know that if I have 100 users sending and receiving this much 
data how often they can check and receive data without crippling the server?


This is how I am refreshing data:

   computer sends fileID# and updateCounter#
   |
   |
   server get fileID# and updateCounter#
   server checks against DB for changes to file by comparing
   updateCounter#
   (could also be timestamp) results in 2 scenarios

   _scenario1_
   if change is made to file server sends back file data and a command to
   use that data to refresh the UI.

   _scenario2_
   if no change has been made
   no data is passed back

2008-10-31 Thread Anthony Pace

I personally wouldn't use this...

This will only work on windows if your in IE:file:///C:/pathname 
here   and choose your target


Not a great help.
