[Flashcoders] Flash on top of flash
Hi, I’m trying to position a windowed swf on top of another windowed swf on my site. The underlaying swf (windowed) is the main application and now I need to add a separate swf on top of it, which is another application. I tried with some css work including z-layer but without any luck. Has anyone else done this?

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash on top of flash
You won't get much luck overlaying anything on top of a flash player. Not even another flash player. I think that the correct solution here is to use just one flash player that loads both movies. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Flash on top of flash
Try wrapping your swf in a span or div and set the z-index to that.
Also, set the object and embed z-index to inherit in your css.
object, embed { z-index:inherit; }
Work in some browsers, but by-and-large very buggy.
I would go with Henrik's suggestion if you can.
You would think this bug would have been fixed years ago.
But, i digress..
Best,

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash on top of flash
This will probable be inconsistent across browsers and operating systems, however you can always try! Also, if you can get it to work, you may lose all 2D (and in the future 3D) acceleration by the video card, as everything will have to be processed in software From memory, window and direct modes allow for 3d, opaque and transparent specifiy software and allow overlays of other content, eg. html menus popping up over the flash, possibly other flash player instances too. see here for more details: *wmode* - Possible values: window, direct, opaque, transparent, gpu. Sets the Window Mode property of the Flash movie for transparency, layering, positioning, and rendering in the browser. If this attribute is omitted, the default value is window. For more information, see Using Window Mode (wmode) valueshttp://kb2.adobe.com/cps/127/tn_12701.html#main_BrowserSupportForWmodes below. http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/127/tn_12701.html On 21 September 2011 16:09, Mikael Enroos mikael.enr...@paf.com wrote: Hi, I’m trying to position a windowed swf on top of another windowed swf on my site.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash on top of flash
Hi, I had to do some similar hacky workaround for a site that wanted a flash navigation that expanded over the top of HTML. The Flash had to be fullscreen for the intro and then shrink vertically to be the navigation bar at the top of the screen when content appeared. The only way I could figure to do this was to have Flash call JavaScript after / before each transition to change the css and expand / contract the Flash div over the top of the other content. If the non-intersecting parts of your 2 swfs is rectangular, this might work for you?

That question could mean 1 of two different targets: 1. HTML5 - so that the flash app runs in Mobile Safari, integrated with the website. In that case, you need to port or convert to HTML/JS/CSS. I haven't found anything particular hands free to do that conversion, but you could try Google Swiffy if it's AS2 (don't know if it supports Sound). I'm not sure what you'd use for AS3 (there is Jangaroo, but it doesn't convert fla or swf, only AS3, and doesn't run particular well on the current version of iOS). 2. An iOS App Store app, that can be installed through that system. In that case AIR for iOS is probably a good bet. If you don't have Flash CS5 (or 5.5), you can use the free SDK to compile the necessary app. Make sure to use at least AIR 2.7 (especially if you target CPU mode), as it's much much faster than previous versions.

update event and timers,or other process doesent affect each other , but in
flash if u see hthe proccess has affect on each other , the cpu usage goes up ,
frame rate goes down
how can i solve it, is there equal instruction (applicationdoevent in vb
)that we can do it in as3?
please help me

Re: [Flashcoders] Convert flash animation with sound to Ipad
To make an app, you'll want to change the publishing settings to publish as iPhone app. The only thing is, you'll be publishing with AIR 2.0 by default from Flash CS5 - there is a way to overlay the AIR package to get it to work with newer AIR builds (AIR 2.7 is fast much much faster, and supports iPad, retina, etc.). Alternatively, you could use the command line, and not worry about overlaying the AIR SDK: http://icodesnip.com/snippet/actionscript-3/adt-command-line-to-compile-ios-app-in-air-26 You could put that command line in a bat file (and edit it as needed), and run that after you do a test movie from Flash (to generate the swf). I do that to get access to the interpreter builds (which you can't get from Flash's iOS publish dialog) for more rapid iteration (a full AOT compile is very very slow, but produces quick runtime performance, vs. the interpreter which compiles fast, but runs more slowly). This is windows centric, but I found it the easiest entry point to getting up and running with PFI (the old name)/AIR for iOS: http://gotoandlearn.com/play.php?id=133 Kevin N.

Not all is clear for me but I try to understand. 2011/9/21 Kevin Newman capta...@unfocus.com: To make an app, you'll want to change the publishing settings to publish as iPhone app. The only thing is, you'll be publishing with AIR 2.0 by default from Flash CS5 - there is a way to overlay the AIR package to get it to work with newer AIR builds (AIR 2.7 is fast much much faster, and supports iPad, retina, etc.). Alternatively, you could use the command line, and not worry about overlaying the AIR SDK: http://icodesnip.com/snippet/actionscript-3/adt-command-line-to-compile-ios-app-in-air-26 You could put that command line in a bat file (and edit it as needed), and run that after you do a test movie from Flash (to generate the swf). I do that to get access to the interpreter builds (which you can't get from Flash's iOS publish dialog) for more rapid iteration (a full AOT compile is very very slow, but produces quick runtime performance, vs. the interpreter which compiles fast, but runs more slowly). This is windows centric, but I found it the easiest entry point to getting up and running with PFI (the old name)/AIR for iOS: http://gotoandlearn.com/play.php?id=133 Kevin N.

Flash file has not much scripting: stop() and script for navigation buttons. So I have two questions: 1. What format should I save in Flash CS5? 2. Should I have CS5.5 for better result? 3. What should I change in scripting so that play correctly in iPad? I am looking for simple example that can help. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] can flash do more than one thing in thr same time

You have a timer trying to fire 1,000 times per second. It takes longer than 1/1000 second to write to the text field and update it. Of course the timer slows down. Flash is not multi-threaded, which means it can do only one thing at a time. I've heard some talk that there is a new version of the Flash player that will handle multiple threads, but as it stands now, there is no way to make your program work faster except to call the timer less often. Try new Timer(100), which will fire 10 times per second. Then your text might be able to keep up with the timer. It depends on a lot of things--your cpu speed, how many processes are running, and other factors. The only thing I can pretty much guarantee is that you're not going to get a timer to fire 1,000 times a second, at least not if you're doing anything when it fires.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash on top of flash
With that solution, I have an idea. Using Flashvars and javascript. Set up a javascript file that tells when the two flash files are hovering over each other and have it put an invisible png between them. This png will be inside a div, so technically you would put the div between them. Making the png stretch to the size of the bottom swf. Cover it. Basically blocking any flash interactions on the one below? Also, in order for this to work, I think you may want to assign z- index:0 to the body. That way it explicitly sets zero first. extra swf z-index:3 div z-index:2 transparent png img/div main swf z-index:1 Kind-of like an invisible button does inside flash.

Unless you need them to interact. In that case they need to be in the same swf. Best, Karl On Sep 21, 2011, at 6:30 PM, Karl DeSaulniers wrote: With that solution, I have an idea.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash on top of flash
If it's like a popup thing, I guess you'd want to block access - however, that won't work anyway in wmode=window. The iframe is what divides the two swfs, and allows the one on top to display over another swf with wmode set to window (which as I understood it could not be changed), by forcing the browser to create another system window (for the iframe).

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash on top of flash
If one the two swfs need to interact (if I understood) LocalConnection could be used. That works even when two swfs are on different domains, running in two different browsers (as long as they are on the same machine). Kevin N.

That's true. I've done that. I was referring to a drag-and-drop scenario of interaction I guess.
