Re: [Flashcoders] Transitions on dynamically loaded swf slow down if you resize that loaded swf file and then play the transition.
Hi Vivek I didnt understand much about your problem from the explanations. But as for my understanding these might be the issues.. I guess the transitions clip might be heavy . so only when resizing it doesnt play at normal speed what u expected. I guess you can try out some way of transitions using the tween class. It might improve the performance. If the transitions is not using tween motion..Could you send me the code for better understanding. So it might be helpful to predict the problem. In the second case i guess there might be some issues with the toggling variable or other. If you send me the code for this too it could be resolved cheers Durairaj On 5/21/07, Vivek Lakhanpal [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Everyone, I have a very unique problem. If i play transitions on dynamically loaded swf files in my container swf file. They all play nicely until i resize them. When i resize the dynamically loaded swf files as per the size of the container file the transition slow down to almost 0speed midway for few millisecond and then play. 2nd problem is that the container file i am referring here is a player which plays a slide show in it. For a better client experience i am loading all swf files into dynamically created child container clips, after loading each swf file i stop it and set their visibility to 0. Now the problem is that When i play the slide on it's turn and make it visible almost none of the transition plays. I have to make it play the other way. I play the slide when it's turn comes, set it's visibility to 1 and then set an interval of almost 500ms after which i play a transition on that slide/clip and it player nicely. I am not sure why is that. Any suggestion or help in this regard will be highly appreciated. -- Thanks Regards, Vivek Lakhanpal.

Re: [Flashcoders] Transitions on dynamically loaded swf slow down if you resize that loaded swf file and then play the transition.
Hi Durairaj, Thanks for looking into the problem. Let me try to rephrase it once again. I have a flash player in which user can play slideshow (e.g. http://www.authorstream.com) now in this player as you can see the dimension of the player is around 400x300 approx. But the slides being loaded are 720x540 for some unavoidable reason. Few days back a requirement came that we have to put up transitions in this player as you see in the PowerPoint show. So i have imported transition classes in the player and tried to implement the transitions into the loaded clip (slides converted to swf from ppt). Now as you can see the player is of shorter dimensions then that of slides being provided to the player. So i have to resize the slide after loading them into a clip. Here starts the problem. On a button click (next of play button or at end of slide) I load next slide into the player. I have a function which load slide into the player. This function first show the dynamically loaded clip into player on top of already loaded clip and then hide the previous clip by setting it's visibility to 0. Here i was implementing the Transition on the clip by picking up the dynamic parameters being provided to me by the xml. So while playing the transition it will play at certain speed till it reaches a half way mark and then stops for a fraction of second and then again start till finish. If i implement the same code in a player of normal size i.e. where i don't have to resize the loaded swf file it plays smoothly. BTW i have to remove the transition from the current player on the website as it wasn't playing properly. Let me know if you understood the problem. I will try to send you the code next time -- Thanks Regards, Vivek Lakhanpal.

[Flashcoders] Coordinates and Stage align in Flexible UIs
Hi there, Is there a good explanation about how co-ordinates work with Stage Align? I'm building a Flexible UI and all works fine is I use Stage.align to the top left, and set teh scalemode to noscale, but if I want to align it to the center things start going a little hay-wire. I'm trying to leave as much of the design on the timeline as possible, and will be loading in SWF dynamically, so I'm aiming to have the main content centered, and have the UI change around that, rather than positioning it with code, but I've not managed to do that yet.

[Flashcoders] Problem: FileReference onComplete event handler fires too soon - not properly waiting for HTTP status code 200
Dear all, We are trying to use Flash 8's FileReference API to upload the big media files in our web app. In our application we upload big media file first to some transient server and then immediately in the same uploading process we start moving this file to Amazon S3 file storage server. The whole uploading process for big media file can be accomplished within 100 seconds, 200 seconds or even 10 000 seconds on slow connections. Important note: Only after the WHOLE upload process finishes, HTTP status code 200 is sent from the server to the Flash player. Unfortunately, for some reason, FileReference 'onComplete' event handler ALWAYS fires after aprox.10-15 sec of time, regardless the fact that HTTP status code 200 is sent from the server after 100 seconds, 200 seconds and even 10 000 seconds. Why is that? Accordingly to Flash 8 livedocs, FileReference onComplete event handler fires ONLY when Flash Player has received an HTTP status code of 200 from the server . http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Partsfile=2215.html -- With flex regards, Andriy Panas ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

[Flashcoders] Have a problem with my flash site, in 1 or 2 people computer
Hi, I have a weird problem with a site (http://www.2pestudio.com/). The client said that one person tried to see it, but loaded only a green i (on top-right) and the address (just beside the i) and the loader keeps on screen, forever. Weird cause the site has a preloader and only shows those if the xml has loaded, and it has a structure that would really avoid those type of problems. The site is exported to Flash 8 player, and this person that had this problem, said that he loads hundreds of sites, with no problem. Well, I´ll let you know the fla structure down here so you can see that I am talking about: . frame1: Stage.scaleMode = noScale; . frame2: preloader (own swf, css, xml, bg image - the client wanted only one preloader) xml loads with loading only appearing (carregando instead of loading) when it finishes, preloader start loading xml content, bg image, text, etc. when it finishes, after being sure that css is loaded, it goes to frame 4. . frame3: exported library itens . frame4: preloader goes away with transition, when transitionIsComplete, goes to frame5 . frame5. here is where the site is mounted, I use transitions to keep things organized. any part of the i (on top-right) code, is here, nothing before.

Re: [Flashcoders] Have a problem with my flash site, in 1 or 2 people computer
Hi, I went to your site and it loaded fine. I didn't have any problems with it. My guess is either: a) your swf is Flash 9 and the client does not have the Flash 9 player b) your client does not have a current version of the Flash player loaded. I have had clients in the past tell me they cannot see a site I have built - but can see others. Everytime, directing them to Adobe's site to install the most recent Flash player has resolved the problem.

[Flashcoders] Flash + Bitmap
Curious issue that I ran into. I have this small flash app meant to run locally. It basically shows the current webcame stream and when a user hits a button, it takes a snapshot (copy over the video to bitmap object) and then later the user can print it. Works fine. Except when I change the security setting to not be Deny. Everytime you get to the camera part, the security dialog comes up, you hit allow and everything works fine. I want to hide that dialog, so I go to settings and hit allow and check remember this. The camera works fine and no security prompt comes up, BUT, for some reason, if I do this the bitmap object won't make a copy of the video. Is there some additional security that I'm missing there?

Re: [Flashcoders] remove duplicate items in array
You could prevent duplicates from being placed into the array in the first
place. Or

You could rewrite a prototype as a regular function that takes the array as
an argument.

RE: [Flashcoders] remove duplicate items in array
Your function is fine if you want to only remove the 1st occurance of a repeat.
However, 3 in a row will be only reduced to 2. I'm guessing that's what's
happening to you.
In other words, [1,1,2,3,3,4] will properly reduce to [1,2,3,4] with your
function. However, [1,1,1,2,3,3,4] will only reduce to [1,1,2,3,4].
Trace through your function using the above examples step by step and you
should see where your error is.

when i'm happy i'll hit deadline
here's what i ended up with -
var myTempArray:Array = [];
designerArray.sort();
for (var i:Number = 0; i designerArray.length; i++) {
if (designerArray[i] != designerArray[i-1]) {
myTempArray.push(designerArray.slice(i,i+1));
}
}
designerArray = myTempArray;

hi guys
i'm looking for a way of removing duplicate items in an array
i've done this so far
//sort array so all items of the same content are grouped together
myArray.sort();
//loop through items, removing any sitting next to a duplicate
for (var i:Number = 0; i myArray.length; i++) {
if (myArray[i] == myArray[i+1]) {
myArray.splice (i, 1);
}
}
however, i always seems to end up with the first 2 items in the array
being the same (although it works well after that)
i can't figure out why - hope you can help

[Flashcoders] Q:Create and animate diagonal slices from Bitmap
I'm trying to create and animate diagonal slices from a bitmap object. The easiest way to create slices from Bitmaps is via the Rectangle class, but I need diagonal slices. Can this be done via a matrix transform of my bitmap BEFORE I create my slices, or si there an easier way that involves skewing the slices I create using the Rectangle class? Any suggestions welcome!

[Flashcoders] help about buttons from xml file.
Hi, I'm creating buttons dinamycally using a xml file, this is my
code:
stop();
menus = new XML();
menus.ignoreWhite = true;
menus.onLoad = function(success) {
//portfolioTag = this.firstChild;
titleMenus = this.firstChild.childNodes.length;
menuContent = this.firstChild;
for (var i = 0; i 4; i++){
// either menu or item
menuContent.childNodes[i].nodeName;
// name of the item
menuTitle= menuContent.childNodes[i].attributes.title;
var buttonsMenu= _root.menu.attachMovie(buttons, menuTitle,
this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.buttonsMenu._x=0;
this.buttonsMenu._y=-10*i;
var newText = buttonsMenu.poa.text=menuTitle;
// action of the item
textMenu= menuContent.childNodes[i].attributes.text;
trace(buttonsMenu);
// variables for that action
}
}
menus.load(txt/poa.xml);
the problem here is that it shows only one button, what about the
rest of them, the output window shows all, but in the swf only appear
one.

[Flashcoders] help with a menu in xml
Hi coders, this is thread is the second part of the other.
well I have the buttons created and I have this onRelease behavior
attached to a every single button,
but when I tried to read into a text field part of the xml(text) this
one only reads one, not the others and when I traced them , they are
there(in the output window) but not into the field as they are
supposed to.
This is my code in as2 again:
stop();
menus = new XML();
menus.ignoreWhite = true;
menus.onLoad = function(success) {
//portfolioTag = this.firstChild;
titleMenus = this.firstChild.childNodes.length;
menuContent = this.firstChild;
for (var i = 0; i 4; i++){
// either menu or item
menuContent.childNodes[i].nodeName;
// name of the item
menuTitle= menuContent.childNodes[i].attributes.title;
var buttonsMenu= _root.menu.attachMovie(buttons, menuTitle, 10+i);
buttonsMenu._x=0;
buttonsMenu._y=-10*i*4;
var newText = buttonsMenu.poa.text=menuTitle;
// action of the item
textMenu= menuContent.childNodes[i].attributes.text;
trace(textMenu);
buttonsMenu.onRelease = function(){
_root.screenTxt.myText_txt1.text=menuTitle+:+textMenu; // loads
good but only one, the rest appears not to be there:(
};
}

menus.load(txt/poa.xml);

RE: [Flashcoders] help with a menu in xml
Your problem might be that your buttons are sharing the same scope when
attempting to access individual variables. When you do something like:
_root.screenTxt.myText_txt1.text=menuTitle+:+textMenu; each button points
to the last variable you created in the loop.
By attaching the data to the button, you can access individual information
using 'this' inside the function.
I haven't tested this, but it looks better to me...
menus = new XML();
menus.ignoreWhite = true;
menus.onLoad = function(success)
{
var target = _root.screenTxt.myText_txt1;
var holder = _root.menu;
var titleMenus = this.firstChild.childNodes.length;
var menuContent = this.firstChild;
for (var i = 0; i titleMenus; ++i )
{
var depth = holder.getNextHighestDepth();
var btn = holder.attachMovie( buttons, 'btn_' + i , depth
);
btn._x = 0;
btn._y = -10 * i * 4;
btn.data = {
text: menuContent.childNodes[i].attributes.text,
title: menuContent.childNodes[i].attributes.title
};
btn.poa.text = btn.data.text;
btn.onRelease = function(){
target.text = this.data.title + : +
this.data.text;
}
}
}
menus.load(txt/poa.xml);

Subject: [Flashcoders] help with a menu in xml
Hi coders, this is thread is the second part of the other.
well I have the buttons created and I have this onRelease behavior
attached to a every single button,
but when I tried to read into a text field part of the xml(text) this
one only reads one, not the others and when I traced them , they are
there(in the output window) but not into the field as they are
supposed to.
This is my code in as2 again:
stop();
menus = new XML();
menus.ignoreWhite = true;
menus.onLoad = function(success) {
//portfolioTag = this.firstChild;
titleMenus = this.firstChild.childNodes.length;
menuContent = this.firstChild;
for (var i = 0; i 4; i++){
// either menu or item
menuContent.childNodes[i].nodeName;
// name of the item
menuTitle= menuContent.childNodes[i].attributes.title;
var buttonsMenu= _root.menu.attachMovie(buttons, menuTitle, 10+i);
buttonsMenu._x=0;
buttonsMenu._y=-10*i*4;
var newText = buttonsMenu.poa.text=menuTitle;
// action of the item
textMenu= menuContent.childNodes[i].attributes.text;
trace(textMenu);
buttonsMenu.onRelease = function(){
_root.screenTxt.myText_txt1.text=menuTitle+:+textMenu; // loads
good but only one, the rest appears not to be there:(
};
}
}
menus.load(txt/poa.xml);
and this is xml
?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1?

[Flashcoders] Fwd: Timeline label question
Hi, I saw something in Colin Moock's book Essential ActionScript 2.0 and I was wondering if someone could explain it. In Chapter 11, he outlines an OOP application framework. In the part where he sets up the timeline in the .fla file, he attaches actions on frames 1, 5 and 15 (these frames are also keyframes). However, the loading label starts on frame 4 so it actually overlaps the actions associated with frame 1. My questions: 1. Why doesn't he start the loading label on frame 5 to correspond to the actions that start on that frame? 2. What is the effect of starting the label on frame 4 instead of frame 5?

[Flashcoders] Extends Array ???
Has anyone been able to get the indexer working by extending Array
class?
Like
Myclass extends Array
{
... Constructor and Other needed elements
}
!!! Usage I am looking for:
Myclass[index]
One of the properties of the prototype is length. It actually gets set
on Myclass during extension of Array but I haven't figure out how to set
the index to respond with at least internal value. Ultimately I would
like to use this in static mode as an actual type.
So this would be in some way custom prebuilt array.
Any other alternatives are appreciated, thank you!

[Flashcoders] FLVPlayback Component on Limelight
Hey Everyone, I've been trying to use the FLVPlayback component and our video server provider is Limelight. Has anyone else had issues? Can you point me in the right direction for fix this? THANKS!

Re: [Flashcoders] FLVPlayback Component on Limelight
Lori, I don't use Limelight and I'm not sure what issues you're having, but if they're running FCS, then these notes that I got from Muzak back when I was trying to get the flvplayback component working with FCS might be helpful: Another important thing to get the FLVPlayback component to work is to put a copy of main.asc in the app folder you're trying to connect to. You can find the main.asc file here (default Flash 8 install): C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Flash 8\Samples and Tutorials\Samples\Components\FLVPlayback One last important thing is to set isLive to false on the FLVPlayback instance (it is by default). This one really threw me off, but thinking about it now it makes sense, as isLive probable means live streaming from a webcam rather than using streaming server such as FCS. This isn't clear in the docs though, at least it wasn't to me.

RE: [Flashcoders] Extends Array ???
-
In your bit of code:
Myclass extends Array {
... Constructor and Other needed elements
}
Myclass[index]
I don't think you could ever do that with an array without actually making a
new Array (); so to be able to access the array elements that way, try
using:
var myArray = new Myclass ();
myArray [ index ];
...same as
var array = new Array ();
array [ index ];
-
Not sure if this helps or complicates things - but here are a few approaches
of instances working with static methods/properties of the extended Array
class.
//
// EXAMPLE 1
//
In this example, the preset array values are set through the constructor,
and you can change that at anytime. Each new instance has internal
properties as well and a few different ways in which to talk with the Static
class.
/ in EXAMPLE_1.fla
// import
import ArrayExt;
// set future array defaults
ArrayExt.setDefaults ( [ 'a', 'b', 'c' ] );
// create
var array1 = new ArrayExt ( );
// set new defaults
ArrayExt.setDefaults ( [ '1', '2' ] );
// create
var array2 = new ArrayExt ( );
var array3 = new ArrayExt ( 'blah', 'blah', 'blah' );
// output
trace( '\nArrayExt.defaultArray: ' + ArrayExt.defaultArray )
// 1,2
trace( '\narray1: ' + array1 ); // a,b,c
trace( 'array2: ' + array2 ); // 1,2
trace( 'array3: ' + array3 ); // 1,2
trace( '\narray1.length: ' + array1.length );// 3
trace( 'array2.length: ' + array2.length );// 2
trace( '\narray1[0]: ' + array1[0] );// a
trace( 'array2[0]: ' + array2[0] );// 1
trace( '\narray1.internalVal_0: ' + array1.internalVal_0
);//333
trace( 'array2.internalVal_0: ' + array2.internalVal_0
);//333
trace( 'array3.internalVal_0: ' + array3.internalVal_0
);//333
trace( '\narray1.fullArray: ' + array1.fullArray );//
X,X,X,a,b,c
trace( 'array2.fullArray: ' + array2.fullArray );//
X,X,X,1,2
trace( '\narray1.fullLength: ' + array1.fullLength );// 6
trace( 'array2.fullLength: ' + array2.fullLength );// 5
/ in ArrayExt.as
class ArrayExt extends Array
{
public static var defaultArray:Array;
public static var intervalArray:Array = [ 'X', 'X', 'X' ];
public var internalVal_0:Number = ;
public var internalVal_1:Number = ;
public function ArrayExt ()
{
trace( ArrayExt () - arguments : ' + arguments );
INIT ();
}
// PUBLIC
// getters and setters
public function get fullArray ():Array
{
return ArrayExt.intervalArray.concat ( this );
}
public function get fullLength ():Array
{
return ArrayExt.intervalArray.length + this.length;
}
// PUBLIC STATIC
public static function setDefaults ( array:Array ):Void
{
defaultArray = ( array == undefined ) ? [] : [].concat (
array );
}
// PRIVATE
private function INIT ()
{
// default
for ( var i in ArrayExt.defaultArray )
{
this [ i ] = ArrayExt.defaultArray [ i ];
}
}
}
-
//
// EXAMPLE 2
//
What it comes down to is how exactly you want to use this. If you just want
a class that allows you to have some extra control over the array you can
always make a simple array class with access to a Array utility class.
/ in EXAMPLE_2.fla
var array = new ArraySimple ( 'a', 'c', 'b', 1, 7, 3 );
trace( 'array.sorted: ' + array.sorted );
trace( 'array: ' + array );
trace( 'array[0]: ' + array[0] );
/ in ArraySimple.as
import ArrayUtils;
class ArraySimple extends Array
{
public function ArraySimple ()
{
for ( var i in arguments )
{
this [ i ] = arguments [ i ];
}
}
public function get sorted ():Array
{
return ArrayUtils.sortArray ( this );
}
}
/ in ArrayUtils.as
class ArrayUtils
{
public function ArrayUtils () {
}
public static function sortArray (array:Array )
{
var a = [].concat ( array );
a.sort();
return a;
Re: [Flashcoders] FLVPlayback Component on Limelight
Thanks Helen, but i have all that stuff setup correctly. At least i think so... I have an app folder named test and my videos are in test/streams/_definst_ As well as the main.asc file sitting in the test folder. I've been able to use the Flash Component with FMS before with this setup so not sure whats up. I think its something either with there servers or maybe there is some custom configuration i have to do with NCManager??

[Flashcoders] problem creating multiple instances
Hello, I'm having a problem with one of my class files. I've created a class to control the animation of a 3D plane, but I am unable to use multiple instances at the same time. I'm not sure what it is that is conflicting. Any ideas would be appreciated. I've attached the class file. If the other class files are needed, please let me know. I also have a test FLA that I have been using to test my progress on this problem.

RE: [Flashcoders] problem creating multiple instances
Looks like you're attaching your plane to the same MovieClip instance, thus
destroying any/all objects that was previously on that MovieClip instance.
Depends on how you're instantiating your creationObject. BTW, just a comment
on your implementation: I would use a custom class to set properties for
creation and animation rather than a generic object. This way, you can avoid
having to iterate through the object and then you can just composition your
custom class/object. In Java, this would be equivalent to a Value Object or
a Data Transfer Object.

Re: [Flashcoders] problem creating multiple instances
This is how I am instantiating the creationObject (below). I believe
that if I am passing a different name to the myName property it
should create more than one MovieClip instance.
I'd love to hear more about your suggestion to use a custom class to
set properties instead of a generic object, or maybe point me in the
direction of good tutorial or example. Unfortunately I am a self
taught coder and am not always familiar with some of the best practices.
var myCreationSettings:Object = {
myName:3DCircleOnCavill,

scope:this,
xAxisStart:-20,
yAxisStart:20,
