Re: [Flashcoders] [AS3] Cleaning Up (timelines, movieclips and events)
Frames aren't objects in memory; they are just concepts. (Key)frames are simply time markers when actions occur. Some of these actions are authored as ActionScript code; others are authored graphically, but the latter are the equivalent of writing addChild() and removeChild() statements to the MovieClip. There is one display list that has things added and removed (or transformed or Tweened) as the playhead advances. Objects removed at any key frame therefore should be eligible for garbage collection, assuming no event listeners or other code created a reference to them. Is this explanation helpful? 2009/1/15 Joel Stransky stranskydes...@gmail.com I've read that before. a couple of times. The question here is what happens to frames after the playhead leaves, not when Loader.unload() is called. I wasn't sure if each frame had their own display list or or just one per timeline. It seems like the sensible thing to do would have been to make a Frame class that extends DisplayObjectContainer where their display lists were eligable for gc after the playhead left. I set up the test files with the intention of seeing if fp9 acted that way or not. On Thu, Jan 15, 2009 at 10:55 PM, Jason Boyd jayb...@gmail.com wrote: You are asking a key question with AS3.

Re: [Flashcoders] [AS3] Cleaning Up (timelines, movieclips and events)
Objects removed at any key frame therefore should be eligible for garbage collection, assuming no event listeners or other code created a reference to them. Yes. Another problem is: even if no listener or code references to these objects, they continue playing when they are removed by a blank keyframe. playing means that if the playhead was in play mode, the playhead continues playing, possibly triggering sounds, scripts, etc... :( It seems that as3 dev team just forgot what a blank keyframe is. I'm interested in the topic of removeMovieClip in as3, because it's a convenient use of the timeline, but I didn't take time to establish best practices about it. However here are some tracks or tips: - listen to REMOVED_FROM_STAGE at the top of display list. When an object is removed, stop it. - add complex behaviors to displayObjects (such as listeners, sounds, timers, etc..) using a safe API. That is: when you add something new (for example A) to displayObject B, you listen B's REMOVED_FROM_STAGE to dispose A. I don't want to use a IDisposable interface everywhere. Probably I will use a more brutal approach with a function similar to http://blog.gludion.com/2008/11/script-code-test.html (sorry it's in french but the script is quite self-explanatory).

[Flashcoders] [flash textfield] lose formatting
Hello guru list, A basic question. A designer setup a fla file, with a lot of textfields. He'd adjusted font size, spacing, leading, etc. When I'll use his fla, I have to convert all static fields into dynamic fields, and all looks good. The question and problem is, when I compile and set a text for those dynamic textfields, the textfield loses all formatting it had, so, I need to rewrite via TextFormat. Am I doing something wrong, or isn't possible use timeline text formatting in runtime?

Re: [Flashcoders] [flash textfield] lose formatting
I have already posted that here but, I think this (a single class that is extending TextField) can help you as it is a kind of things Ive already done (and I was bored to struggle with textfield, textformat, style, etc). I've extracted a text tool from my framework: SomaText. It allows you to easily create TextField and apply styles from a stylesheet, you can set a lot TextField and TextFormat properties straight from the stylesheet if you wish. It is a single class that is extending the TextField built-in one, very easy to use. Quick intro: http://www.soundstep.com/blog/2009/01/07/somatext-standalone/ Source: http://www.soundstep.com/blog/downloads/somatext/ List of properties you can use in the stylesheet: http://www.soundstep.com/somaprotest/www/#/stylesheet/css-properties/ And for the curious, SomaText is part of Soma (MVC Framework): http://www.soundstep.com/somaprotest/ Hope it helps.

[Flashcoders] RE: AS3 DataGrid header text alignment problem
FYI I went into the component source code, found the bug and fixed it. It meant deriving a new class from the HeaderRenderer class and then going into the drawLayout function and changing the line textField.width = tmpWidth; to textField.width = width - (txtPad * 2) - paddedIconW; Yes I know the precedence of multiplication means I didn't really need to put the parenthesis around txtPad * 2 but I like to make things more readable. Anyway, assigning the DataGrid's headerRenderer style to the new HeaderRenderer class has everything working properly.

I'm interested in the topic of removeMovieClip in as3, because it's a convenient use of the timeline, but I didn't take time to establish best practices about it. However here are some tracks or tips: - listen to REMOVED_FROM_STAGE at the top of display list. When an object is removed, stop it. - add complex behaviors to displayObjects (such as listeners, sounds, timers, etc..) using a safe API. That is: when you add something new (for example A) to displayObject B, you listen B's REMOVED_FROM_STAGE to dispose A. I don't want to use a IDisposable interface everywhere. Probably I will use a more brutal approach with a function similar to http://blog.gludion.com/2008/11/script-code-test.html (sorry it's in french but the script is quite self-explanatory).

[Flashcoders] help stopping an external clip on as3
Ok Coders I have a loader which loads a external movieclip, and I want it to stop when I say, but unfortunately all my efforts are useless I've been using. in some frame. myLoader.stop(); and nothing or myLoader.stop; and is the same...any ideas? every time is the same error, someone(there is no reference to stop() in the display library???) knows how to stop it?

[Flashcoders] AS3 Nice Knob(s)
I am looking for an AS3 knob that is close to this: http://keith-hair.net/blog/examples/niceknobs/ yet is something I can use in the Flash CS4 IDE - a SWC would even be nice to link up to. The URL above is just an example. Being able to optionally check + or - movements on 360º revolutions (detents) would be a huge plus. If the code is accessible, that would be super awesome for tweaking. Tried googling, haven't found anything close yet.

[Flashcoders] Algorithm for distributing labels along a timeline without overlapping
All, Hope I can phrase this question clearly... I'm working on an application that will display a visual timeline with a vertical orientation. At various points along the timeline, it will display key markers/milestones. Each one of these markers will have a label. The problem arises when several milestones are bunched together. If I draw the label for each marker at the exact y coordinate that corresponds with that particular point in time, the labels will overlap, and are unreadable. One obvious solution is to stack the labels horizontally, but because of the particular layout of this application, that's not possible. So, what I need is an algorithm that will nudge the Y coordinate of various labels just enough to get everything to fit. Then, I'll draw a hairline from the label to the exact Y coordinate on the timeline that it's associated with. I could start with the top label, and then step through each label below, moving them each down enough to remove overlaps. But that could result in a lot more moving than necessary, and won't use space optimally. A better solution would be one that moves some up, some down, to minimize the total distance. Here's an exact example of what I'm trying to accomplish: http://www.smartmoney.com/fundanalyzer/ Is anyone aware of an algorithm that does something like this? Many thanks in advance for any insights or advice! Cheers, Matt ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Re: [Flashcoders] Algorithm for distributing labels along a timeline without overlapping
Check the height vs. y pos of the first and evenly distribute. Something like 'total with in range' x 'height' and then iterate position via start y -= totalHeight/2. rough idea but some where to start. B.

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 Nice Knob(s)
I know most applications use sliders; yet, I actually prefer the knobs that are more realistic. In my opinion, if you are going to make it look like a knob, it should function like one. To create them, I think a good way is to track the mouse's x,y and angle, using the centre of the knob as the origin, and then if cursor.y origin.y disable the knob from moving past given points, unless the user goes backward.
