Re: [Flashcoders] RE: retreieving a node that contains a specific attribute from an XML list
You can pick nodes by adding a comparison into your XML path
Conteudo.(@id == link) will give you the correct node too

Hi,
thank you all.
I've managed to do it like this, based on what Cor wrote me:
function clickItemTitle(e:Event):void {
_link = String(e.target.frameLink);
var node:int;
for (var i:Number = 0; i conteudo.length(); i++)
{
if (conteudo[...@id == _link)
{
node = i;
}
}
trace (node: + node);
then I just use conteudo[node] to access the content.
I was trying to do that without using a for loop , but maybe it
wouldn't be possible. anyway I believe there's no need to avoid a loop
here, even if there's 1200 nodes in my XML, right?
Allandt, I actually didn't understand the use of toXMLString(), at
least in this situation..
cheers!

from an XML list.
I have an XMLList and I would like to retrieve a node in this list
that contain a specfic attribute.
here is how my XMLlist conteudo is organized. trace (conteudo)
throws:
slide id=apresentacao
titApresentação/tit
txt (lots of text...)/txt
/slide
slide id=sumario
titApresentação/tit
txt (lots of text...)/txt
/slide
etc...
I've tried the following ways:
//gets all nodes that contain the attribue id. that is , the
same
as trace(conteudo), cause every node contain an
// id attribute. i don't need them all to contain the
attribute, but i've made so, trying to avoid errors. so there a lot
of
// nodes in which the id attribute is equal to .
//trace (conteudo.(hasOwnProperty(@id));
//this one doesn't throws an error, but doesn't retrieve anything

// why it doesn't work like this? same reference errpr

RE: [Flashcoders] Re: time based smooth animation w/ GTween. HELP!
Hey Isaac. What exactly are you trying to accomplish with the
renderTime(10)? Your example tween was only 1 second long, so where does the
10 come from? If you want to skip to a certain time in a TweenMax tween,
make sure you're using the latest v11 (http://blog.greensock.com/v11beta/)
and just set the currentTime property like myTween.currentTime = 10 would
make it go to the 10-second point. Or use the currentProgress property
(always between 0 and 1 where 0.5 is halfway finished) like
myTween.currentProgress = 0.5. Dont use renderTime() - use the currentTime,
currentProgress, totalTime, or totalProgress getters/setters. The
convenience of these getters/setters is that they can easily be tweened for
advanced effects.
And there's an easier way to accomplish your repeatReverse() functionality.
Just use the yoyo and repeat features like:
var plantaTween:TweenMax = new TweenMax(planta, 1, {y:414, repeat:1,
yoyo:true, ease:Sine.easeInOut});
That'll repeat it once and since yoyo is true, it'll play forward the first
time through and backwards the second time through.
Full ASDoc documentation is at http://www.greensock.com/as/docs/tween/
Again, make sure you've got v11: http://blog.greensock.com/v11beta/. Feel
free to use the forums at http://forums.greensock.com for these types of
questions. I try to be pretty active in responding there.
Jack
PS For the record, TweenLite/Max does NOT use a Timer to drive updates. It's
ENTER_FRAME driven which is generally optimal for many reasons (I won't bore
you with an explanation here). You can have any tween base its timing on
frames instead of time if you prefer (new in v11) by setting useFrames:true.

Hey Joel, so, I´m giving a try with TweenMax.
as far as I understood, tweenmax´s default timing mode is set to time
based , not frame.
how can I change then the renderTime? I-ve tried to do so but no success.
var plantaTween:TweenMax = new TweenMax(planta, 1, {y:414, onComplete:
repeatReverse, immediateRender:true, ease:Sine.easeInOut});
// TweenMax.renderTime(10);
// this doesn´t work, how should I set it ?
function repeatReverse():void
{
plantaTween.reverse();
}
thanks!

Grant has now merged forces with Jack Doyle, author of TweenLite, TweenMax
and TweenGroup. The syntax is almost identical and I think you'll have an
easier time achieving the effect you want. A tweens pulse can be updated
via a setInterval, use of a Timer object, based on the milliseconds a flash
movie has been running (getTime) or Enter_Frame events. Enter_Frame has
proven to be the most reliable but due to differences in computer speed and
network conditions none of them are bullet proof. TweenLite, I believe uses
a combination of enter_frame and a Timer where the pulse is updated via
enter_frame and the Timer object is then used to determine exactly which
frame of the tween is to be rendered. This means if for some reason the
flash movie lags, you may see a jump in animation in order to complete in
the time you've allotted. You do not have to specify this when using
TweenLite but keep in mind your movies framerate, the distance of the tween
and the amount of time you are allowing for the tween to finish all factor
in to the smoothness of playback.

Hello!
I would like to create a time based and very smooth animation with

But I´m used to GTween , though.

I´ve read the following examples in Gtween´s documentation and
somewhere else but i can-t quite understand it ..
GTween.timingMode = GTween.TIME;
at http://www.gskinner.com/blog/archives/2008/08/gtween_a_new_tw.html
should I use:
plantaTween.timingMode = GTween.TIME;
or:
GTween.timingMode = GTween.TIME; ?
What does the latter exactly means? it doesn´t do nothing. maybe cause
the default timeInterval property is 25ms. how do i set it ?
the first one throws a reference error Error #1056:
and i-ve seen this also at the documentation
http://www.gskinner.com/libraries/gtween/docs/
Implementation
public static function get timeInterval():uint
public function set timeInterval(value:uint):void
Implementation
public static function get timingMode():String
public function set timingMode(value:String):void
but cannot figure out how to implement it...

Re: [Flashcoders] Loading local files with query strings
Appending arguments to the end of a swf file acts the same as setting FlashVars. So, I take it you are trying to pass an id to the loaded in sub swf? Another way to go about it would be to wait until it loads, and then access the contents of the subloaded swf and set variables that way. Or you can just use a static var like MyApp.varName = value; and then the subloaded swf can check for MyApp.varName - Taka On Mon, Sep 14, 2009 at 11:48 AM, Ian Thomas i...@eirias.net wrote: Don't use query strings?
