/Hi their,
pretty a newbee but trying hard to go FAMES on 'NIX
have ANT working, even executing flash8player via wine and ASDT installed.
Ignoring flashout for the time beign till player 8(.5 ) becomes 
available and a good opportunity to learn to

work with ant (am i wright?).

The only thing I miss is the code completion like in SEPY, where
I can get to (the methods of) the standard mx classes via CTRL+space.
Now I only get asdt to display the predefined snippets or newly declared 
classes'n stuff.
I can't get the std(8) folder defined in the eclipse projects classpath 
nor doing it via the
the declarations of paths in eclipse-preferences-AS2 & MTASC submenu's 
gives me

predefined mx class code hinting.
Is their a way?
What I noticed is that it works perfect if I hard-import the std folder 
in my project's src folder.

But that's not the way, wright?
Hard to find info on this, and some advice about a good workflow setup 
and code-hinting setup

would do me great pleasure!

Thanks in advance,
Latcho

Re: [Flashcoders] 3D in Flash

[Radley Marx]

The simplest approach would be to shoot a series of photos within the  
space and splice them together so they're seamless. This will allow  
for x-axis & y-axis movement (look left, right, up, & down). As for z- 
axis you could fake it by making hot regions that you can click on,  
and then simply dissolve to the new location. By this I mean: there's  
a doorway to a new room - user clicks on it and a cross-fade brings  
you to the new room.


This is essentially what you're going to get with QTVR as well.


If you want to have actual z-axis movement (forward & backward  
motion), you're most likely going to need to do some 3D modeling and  
generate animations for all of the potential positions. You can apply  
texture maps using swift3D or other 3D app and pre-render each  
movement. (Probably the most time intensive approach.)


Shockwave 3D will probably give you the fullest 3D motion experience  
allowing the viewer to move around in any direction. But it's also  
pretty processor intensive.


These last 2 solutions will take a lot of time to create and requires  
multiple skill-sets. If you're green, I'd not recommend either  
without some practice first.

You're loading an outside jpg into Flash. The player needs a moment  
not

only to load the entire image, but also to parse/convert/love the file
and display it in Flash. It shouldn't take a full second for this
happen, but can take anywhere from one to a few frames (depends on

size, number of images, etc).

Simply write a basic loop, based on holderClip._width, that loops

the width is no longer 0. This should be a separate loop/test from

Simply write a basic loop, based on holderClip._width, that loops  
until the width is no longer 0. This should be a separate loop/test  
from .getBytesTotal since you want to be sure its actually fully  
loaded first before you lock up your app in this kind of loop.

[Flashcoders] These [EMAIL PROTECTED] Flash 8 Linkage Publish Errors

[varfoo]

What the *&^%$ is this?

**Warning** The linkage identifier 'BoundingBox' was already assigned to the 
symbol 'com/yellowjacketsoftware/ui/components/Flash UI Components 2/Component 
Assets/BoundingBox', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'Flash UI Components 
2/Component Assets/BoundingBox', since linkage identifiers must be unique.

And how to I get rid of it?  I've already changed the linkage ids on my

I am not a user so I am not an expert on flashorb. But as I understand
it, weborb is just the most recent version that, along with handling
flash remoting also does ajaxy stuff.  I believe the free version is the
standard edition. If you cant find the weborb, I think the flashorb

[Flashcoders] MovieClipLoader

[dancedrummer]

I'm running into a problem that only occurs with Flash8.  I have a swf that
loads additions swf's with a MovieClipLoader object.  The first time I hit
the page it works fine.  On subsequent tries when the external swf's have
been cached in the browser they are not getting recognized as being loaded
by the MCLoader object.  Is not an issue with Flash7.  Anybody here know

Re: [Flashcoders] Xpath and HTML tags inside XML bug?

[grant]

yes doing that, when I do a trace when I have a CDATA section with hello and 
bold tags around it (not typing it as it won't be displayed in the flashlist) I 
see in the text field the hello with the html tags and the same in the trace, 
if I set a string to hello with bold tags around it and assign it to the same 
text field it works... I'll create a demo file and upload soon, I had a 
deadline so ended up using loadvars for the html content and that worked, but 
I've done the CDATA section stuff for my old site and it worked then.

Re: [Flashcoders] License rules when distributing Flash exe files?

[Derek Vadneau]

I would definitely contact Adobe/Macromedia about that.  Don't rely on 
anyone else to tell you what you can and can't do with someone else's 
product.

The Flash player is also included with Flash 8 but you can't simply 
distribute it how you wish.  The EXE you produce with Flash 8 contains the 
Flash player, so I'd look a little deeper into it.

http://www.macromedia.com/licensing/distribution/faq/
Check out the question:
Are the debugger or standalone Players included in the Free Licensing 
Agreement?

Maybe you're fine, but there's a link on that page where you can contact 
Adobe/Macromedia, so you can be sure.

Especially if you're planning on doing something commercially I would 
verify the licensing, even if you need a lawyer's opinion.

I'm not trying to scare anyone.  It's just a good idea to cover your ass.

Thank you everyone for the great response.  I will put together a summary of

[Flashcoders] RE: 3D in Flash

[Adrian Showater]

A possible example of the functionality that you are talking about is by
IKEA on http://demo.fb.se/e/ikea/dreamkitchen/site/default.html  They use
the Matrix like 3D spinning views for different kitchen designs. If you were
to combine FLVs of each hotel room like this, with short transitional FLVs
for moving between rooms, I assume that you should be able to simulate a
complete user controlled "walkthrough" of a 3D space as long as you were
only concerned with one viewpoint per room.  But again, I've never tried it,
and I assume that it would take some time to create.

Another fun example that does this for some spaces is the movie Corpse
Brides official site  http://corpsebridemovie.warnerbros.com/ .

RE: [Flashcoders] External text from XML file including superscriptanditalic

[Merrill, Jason]

Italics are easy, just with a  tags if you set your textfield to
accept HTML and enclose the text in the XML with CDATA tags.

Trademark in HTML is usually ™ or ™- don't know if there is a
spec for service mark yet.  But I don't think Flash's HTML DOM supports
those symbols unfortunately.  I have heard of people inserting graphics,
but that's a pain, and not sure if it's the best/only approach.   Maybe
someone else knows.

Re: [Flashcoders] flash and ASP.NET

[hank williams]

I am not a user so I am not an expert on flashorb. But as I understand
it, weborb is just the most recent version that, along with handling
flash remoting also does ajaxy stuff.  I believe the free version is
the standard edition. If you cant find the weborb, I think the
flashorb standard edtion is fine since all that weborb does is add
support for ajaxy stuff.

RE: [Flashcoders] Xpath and HTML tags inside XML bug?

[Merrill, Jason]

Don't know if this helps, but for html, you set:

textArea.html = true;
then:
textArea.text = thestring; 

,but for textField, you set:

textField.html = true;
then:
textField.htmlText = thestring;

But you probably knew that.  I think that's really confusing the way
Macromedia coded that.  Guess their developers weren't talking to each
other enough.  

What are you using to bring in the XML?  Before going to the textfield,
the string is being traced out as having the HTML tags intact or no?

The CDATA tags are correct in the XML as well?

Hi folks,


Is there a way to know if an object belong to a special interface type ?
I assume it's compilie time only ?

What I'd like is to get the same behavior than instanceof but with 
interface.


Any idea ?

Thanks.

[Flashcoders] button width ?

[grant]

I have a button that appears as a highlight behind a text field when the user 
rolls over the button the highlight appears.  I want the highlight width to be 
a little bigger than the textbox so when I populate the text box I measure it 
and set the width of the button, however this doesn't work, when I read the 
buttons width its 0, and this is when the button has been loaded, if i measure 
the buttons width when it receives a onRelease event its a valid width.  Is 
there some way to set the buttons width after loading, right now its giving me 
the bird.

You're totally right. I had no idea that Macromedia did any optimization

it).

OK, I ran some tests of my own. After repeating it a couple of times,
with various outcomes, the trend seems to be that a) the cast is about
10% faster than the equality, and b) the bitwise and is about 10% faster
than the modulo.
I used MTASC to compile, FP8 under wine on Linux, and the ActionStep
Debug Panel (ActionStep alpha 1 has been released! check it out:
actionstep.org).
I decided to go with triggering it onKeyDown, to avoid initialization of
the player and to be easily able to run repeated tests.

Here's the code:

var bench:Object = {};
bench.onKeyDown = function () {
var repeats:Number = 50;
var i:Number = repeats;
var foo;
var start:Number = getTimer();
while( i-- ) {
foo = ( Math.random() * 10 )|0;
}
var overhead:Number = getTimer() - start;
trace( "overhead: " + overhead );
i = repeats;
start = getTimer();
while( i-- ) {
foo = ( Math.random() * 10 )|0 % 2 == 1;
}
trace( "modulo, equality: " + ( getTimer() - start - overhead )
);
i = repeats;
start = getTimer();

foo = Boolean( ( Math.random() * 10 )|0 % 2 );

guess what checkbox would be.

I've tried:

oncommand
onchange
onchanged
onselect
onselected
onbiteme

I have a flash page that includes several sections of text that are read in
from an XML file.

I have worked out how to do this assuming all the text formatting is one
style. However I would like some of the text to be in italic and it to
include the "TM" as superscript.

Ideally I could just write the text in the xml file as I want it to appear
on screen in the flash movie. Can anyone advise me if this is possible and
how. Or if it isnt possible then what is my best option.

Basically the client will be updating the content of the site by replacing
the xml files and the text needs to have italics and superscript. I do hope
this is possible:)

Many thanks

if (!pDiv) pDiv = 1;
if ((pSize / pDiv) < 81) return pDiv;
return calcFSize(pSize, ++pDiv);
}

then divide each font size by the scale, draw the text and scale the whole  
text block by 100 * scale.


Hope that helps.

Hi,
Does anyone know about what is the maximum font size can be
given toHTML text in Flash?
If I create a HTML text field and change the font size to > 127
pt, when I compare the SWF text size and text size in Flash
authoring, SWF  text size is smaller than what is in the authoring. When
I trace textField.htmlText the size comes out to be 127, but it
writes the  correct HTML tags to SWF file with whatever size was
given.

I couldn't figure out about this type of behavior?
Does anyone have clue about this?

[Flashcoders] 3D in Flash

[nik crosina]

Hi guys

I am trying to find the best way forward here...

We have to create a 3D looking hotel lobby from which the suer can move into
the kitchen, bar, hotel room, etc.

Has anyone of you done something similar in 3D and in FLASH, or is this too
much pane. I am thinking about skewing photographs or illustrations of
walls, floors and ceilings and allowing the user to determine the movemnet
around in the space which then will cahnge the perspectives, etc.

Is it too much pain, or is it doable?

Other options we are considering at the moment are QTVR, and 3D modelling
output to either video (and Flash) or Shockwave 3D via Director.

What you think?!

Re: [Flashcoders] Xpath and HTML tags inside XML bug?

[grant]

I'm having the same issue even without XPATH, I have a CDATA section in my XML 
and the text field renders the text and the HTML tags without rendering HTML, 
if I cut and paste the HTML to a string and set the text field to that it works 
as expected.  I've done this before and it worked, difference now is I'm 
compiling with MTASC and using flash 8 IDE.  I'm going to try a standalone fla 
test and compile with MM compiler and flash 7 to see what the issue is.

Re: [Flashcoders] flash and ASP.NET

[grant]

I've used the flourine pre-alpha, it works fine..

I used it in a demo of ARP extensions (flash RIA) but you can download the .NET 
piece to look at how it works, was pretty easy and transparently comparable to 
MM's .NET remoting framework.

Re: [Flashcoders] Who wants MIDI in the Flash Player?

[Tyler Wright]

I know people who know what they're talking about.  ;)

I've been fortunate enough to work on a project with some amazing developers
and experience the difficulty it is to get Flash to communicate with other
applications.

Thank you everyone for the great response.  I will put together a summary of
this conversation and respond or post it to my blog for your approval.  I
want to make sure it's a fair and unbias (as much as possible)
representation of the developer community before I send it off.

Thanks again!

Tyler

RE: [Flashcoders] simulating narrowband connection

[Alistair Miller]

I have been using a product called netlimiter. Which does a very good job!

The good thing about this is it also lets you limit the connection speed to
files ran of local network servers :o)

Gives stats and other info as well, I found using this in conjunction with
trace plus is a fantastic way to test and debug all internet applications I
build (netlimiter is pc based).

Hope this helps
