SV: [Flashcoders] Input field bug in firefox when embedding swfwithWMODE as transparent og opaque
Hi John, Thanks for your reply. I have looked at mozilla.org but didn't find much. It's really not that fancy - just Windows XP and Firefox (v 2.0.0.4) and since Firefox represents more than 33% of the users these days its a browser i'm afraid we can't just ignore. (http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp ) Unfortunately it was an issue I didn't see coming upfront and since we agreed with our client to suppport Firefox we need to find a way around this. Thanks again.

That might be true. First step would be the Firefox documentation -- check OS & browser version against known issues, and either ask your audience to upgrade or just stopping trying to be so fancy in the frail and varied browsers. It's also possible that this particular content triggers an odd failure in a particular browser brand/OS/version combo -- making a very simple HTML file, as well as a barebones SWF, and testing it on different machines with different keyboards would be the fastest way to detect this. jd ___ 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@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

Re: [Flashcoders] Re: Embed statements in AS3 (not mxml)
"In Flash you embed fonts through the library or by setting a dynamic textfield to embed a particular font." Errr... thanks. But how come my masks don't work when I use device fonts ??? :-) "In that case, wrong list: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/"; Actually, even though I'm using Flexbuilder as a compiler, I'm definitely asking an Actionscript question. I'm looking to do something using Actionscript syntax and all of the available examples employ Flex syntax. "But I'm pretty sure google will return something useful when searching for "AS3 Embed font metadata"" Actually, thank you. That query returned the one example that answered my question: http://www.joangarnet.com/blog/?p=415 The thing I wasn't getting was that you need to directly associate each embed statement with a variable. That should have been obvious, but wasn't. [Embed(systemFont="Arial", fontName="ari", mimeType='application/x-font')] public var f2:Class; [Embed(source="assets/ORG_V01_.ttf", fontName="myUnicodeRangeFont", mimeType='application/x-font', unicodeRange='U+0041-U+005A,U+0061-U+007A,U+00F1')] public var f3:Class; Thanks, Jim Kremens ___ 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
Re: [Flashcoders] getDefinitionByName from external swf
Hey Patrick, this is a snippet from Grant's FlashLib class:
public static function getInstance(className:String):DisplayObject {
var SymbolClass:Class = getDefinition(className);
return (SymbolClass) ? new SymbolClass() : null;
}
public static function getDefinition(className:String):Class {
return (inited) ?
loader.contentLoaderInfo.applicationDomain.getDefinition(className) as Class
: null;
}
I think getDefinition is what you're after. Use the loader object of the
swf you loaded obviously
good luck!

Using getDefinitionByName, can you find a class that's inside a loaded

Like in this example, Test is a class inside "test.swf".

var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE

private function completeEvent(e:Event):void{
var ClassReference:Class = getDefinitionByName("Test") as Class;
var instance:Object = new ClassReference();
}
I get an Error #1065: Variable Test is not defined.
But it works fine if I call getDefinitionByName from within test.swf So is
it something I'm doing wrong or does this method only works within a single
swf?

RE: [Flashcoders] (no subject)
AFAIK, there is no other Button-type class aside from SimpleButton in AS3's
libraries. You could extend SimpleButton and add in a TextField. Then create
a wrapper method to set the text property on your extended button to set the
text on the TextField within.

There's also this:
var ClassRef:Object = getDefinitionByName("flash.display::Sprite");
var element:Sprite = new ClassRef();
That allows you to really use a string and not a class reference,
which is what I think you want...
But, as with Flash 8, the class reference must really exist in your
swf somewhere, so
you may as well do what elibol suggested...

[Flashcoders] (no subject)
hi coder I had to fragment my thread , I'm trying to create a loop in
a as project in flex, in order to set up some buttons, this is the
code for the loop (which is not working and gave me errors every single
time I run .
public function buttons():void{
//line 52// for (i=0; i>myArray.length; i++){
var myButtons:SimpleButton = new
SimpleButton();
//line 54//myButtons.text(myArray[i]);
addChild(myButtons);
}
and these are the errors:
1120: Access of undefined property i. template1 template1.asline 52
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method text through a reference
with static type flash.display:SimpleButton. template1 template1.as
line 54
If you have some ideas about how to do this simple thing , I'd
appreciate any help.

Re: [Flashcoders] Embed statements in AS3 (not mxml)
[Embed] metadata is Flex only.
In Flash you embed fonts through the library or by setting a dynamic textfield
to embed a particular font.

[Flashcoders] 'springing' video players, section playback of video
Hi, Is it possible to 'spring' a video player? I am thinking of an interface with nine TV screens, ready to play back a clip. When the user is clicking on one, the others shrink with a 'springing' movement, the clicked on one enlarges, again, with a 'springing' motion. Has any of you done something before? Question 2: or More a confirmation - it is possibly to have a clip played back from a specific start frame to specific end frame on a certain trigger - say a click somewhere else on stage, isn't? Thanks!

[Flashcoders] Embed statements in AS3 (not mxml)
Hi all,
Boy is it hard to get information on AS3 - not Flex, not Flash - just AS3.
How can I embed multiple assets in one class? With Flex, you can
apparently do this:
.myPlainStyle {
fontFamily: "Myriad Web Pro";
fontSize: 24;
}
.myItalicStyle {
fontFamily: "Myriad Web Pro";
fontSize: 24;
fontStyle: italic;
}
.myBoldStyle {
fontFamily: "Myriad Web Pro";
fontSize: 24;
fontWeight: bold;
}
That takes 3 aspects of the same font and embeds them so you have
access to them. Nice.
I'm not using Flex, so my question is how can I achieve a similar
result using the Embed statement that is available in .as files?
Those typically look like this:
[Embed(systemFont='Trebuchet MS', fontName='Trebuchet MS',
mimeType='application/x-font')]
I'd like to be able to include the bold and italic outlines for that one font...
I can't find any documentation on this that isn't mxml!
Thanks,

Re: [Flashcoders] Masks and components
Thank you! That's exactly what I was looking for. I guess I didn't get to the point quick enough that I assumed that components were made with device fonts which wasn't adequate if I wanted to use it behind a mask. Since I was assuming that (and apparently I was right), I wanted to know if and how I could change it. I'm not familiar with the Flex component framework or the CS3 component framework well enough to know if Adobe gave us access to any methods to actually change the properties of the text field(s) in the components. Furthermore, I wouldn't have really known where to look since this component architecture is new to me. So excellent! I'll check these methods out to see if they can accomplish what I want. Thanks very much. Rákos Attila wrote: bgf> I think if it's set to device it still won't work bgf> whether the font is embedded or not (if I put my mask in a layer). Device fonts are not embedded fonts - if a font is embedded, then it cannot be a device font.

Re: [Flashcoders] Grid - getting neighbouring positions
You might repeat the algorithm for getting the first ring on each cell that makes up that ring. A lazy way to do it would be to exclude the cell that the ring is originating from, and any cells that have already been found. A better solution would be to get the angle between the center and the particular cell and take all cells in that area using some calculation that correlates to the rate at which the area of the cells being captured grows. You might need a bigger sample to get a solid formula for growth. In any case, the initial data structure is what determines the algorithm, so it might be best to come up with a data structure that links cell neighbors the way you need them to be on construction in order to process finding those neighbors right from the start. One final approach that hit me just in case you are working with movieclips: Create a circular clip, resize it centered where you are creating the ring, and do a hit test on all the cells. Successful hit tests mean that they fall in the perimeter of the circle. There is a ratio that relates the circle size to the size of each ring, resize at that rate and you will get one ring at a time. Good luck!

Re: [Flashcoders] Slow Audio on Mac, but not PC??
Hi Jay, If it's set to 'event' it will play pretty much independant of the timeline and if your machine is beefy enough to keep up with the animations while it's playing you probably wouldn't have noticed it. if you set it to 'stream' it will play at your movies framerate and skip frames to keep up with the audio if it has to, if the animations are too much. if you have it set to event now and switch it to stream you'll probably have to move some keyframes around to sync everything back up. the 'event / stream' settings are in the properties tab. click the first keyframe where the audio is, check to see if it's set to 'stream' or 'event' under the 'sync' option. I'm not sure what it defaults to, i vaguely remember it defaulting to 'event'. if this is in fact the issue your experiencing, you'll just have a little extra work on your hands moving some stuff around to sync up. hope this helps, Dunc On 6/18/07, Jay Carlson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Dunc, hey, the audio has just been dropped into the frames where I want it to start (event?)...should I change that to be brought in dynamically?

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash 8 slow animation online, but not local??
Jay Carlson wrote: so I've made a short commercial using a lot of keyframing with text and such that has embedded audio to go with it. I have the audio aligned with the text and it works fine when I test the movie and also when I publish it. but when I stick it on the web, the animation is slower than the text and it gets off. it's almost like the publishing didn't work correctly. is there a way to correct this so the audio is lined up? why would it be slow in a browser and not on the published file? it can't be connection because I'm running some nice fast internet. I'm not sure of the situation there, but browsers definitely impose their own overhead... people regularly see faster performance in Projectors, for similar content on a similar machine, than they do in any one browser, much less the entire set of browsers that your audience might use. Have you tested that file on a slower computer yet? One mistake I see lots of people make is to set a high framerate, in hopes of making things smoother. What this actually does, though, is play faster on faster machines, and slower on slower machines. Setting a reasonable framerate (like, say, the 24-30 fps that movies and TV use) means that more machines will play that content at the same speed. Other possible factors for slower browser performance include the surrounding HTML... most browsers are configured to support only two network requests per domain at a time. If you're streaming in a SWF, then any spacer GIFs or stylesheets or external .JS files or other material can also make things noticeably slower than when playing cached local content. There could be a couple of different causes at play here, but the above are two of the big general issues. D'you think either might be affecting you here...? jd -- John Dowdell .

[Flashcoders] Loading a swf from another swf
Hi Everyone,
I have a swf file, that loads other swf files.
I have code in my loader swf file:
function init(){
var url:String = "page1.swf";
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
ldr = new Loader();
ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaded);
ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,
loading);
ldr.load(urlReq);
}
This works when all the files are in the same directory and I run it
locally.
This doesnt seem to work when I publish to my webserver. I put all the
files into the
same directory, but the swf file can seem to get the other swf files.
I always get a URL Not Found. error. What am I doing wrong?

Re: [Flashcoders] Re: External preloader using loadClip() - is it a good idea?
Hello all again,
I've solved my problem of the loadClip('Main.swf', ...)
delivering the same old version of the Main.swf by
the standard trick of appending a random string.
The minor problem left is that I have to copy my
authentication variables manually by doing:
target_mc.userid = _root.userid;
target_mc.pass = _root.pass;
That is why I'm asking about _root. If I could
load the Main.swf inplace of the "root MovieClip",
then I maybe wouldn't need the copying above.
Regards
Alex
PS: And here is my current code (seems to work...)
var depth:Number = 10;
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var cont_mc:MovieClip =
this.createEmptyMovieClip('cont_mc', depth++);
var load_txt:TextField = this.createTextField('load_txt',
depth++, Stage.width / 2, Stage.height / 2, 200, 100);
var now:Date = new Date();
var tries:Number = 3;
mcl.addListener(this);
// append epoch seconds to prevent loading from cache
mcl.loadClip('Main.swf?' + now.getTime(), cont_mc);
function onLoadProgress(target_mc:MovieClip,
loaded:Number, total:Number):Void {
load_txt.text = Math.ceil(loaded * 100 / total) + '%';
}
function onLoadInit(target_mc:MovieClip) {
load_txt.removeTextField();
target_mc._lockroot = true;
target_mc.userid = _root.userid;
target_mc.pass = _root.pass;
target_mc.play();
}
// workaround when testing locally (strip the seconds)
function onLoadError(target_mc:MovieClip, error:String) {
if ('URLNotFound' == error && tries-- > 0)
mcl.loadClip('Main.swf', cont_mc);

_root is a reference to the root timeline of a swf. Its not a movieclip.
if _root is not a MovieClip, then why are MovieClip methods

And how do I refer to the "root MovieClip" then?
Is "this" in a frame (when I press F9) pointing to the "root MovieClip"?
Can I skip creation of an empty container MovieClip and use
it for loadClip('Main.swf', this)? I've tried and it didn't work.

[Flashcoders] Masks and components
Hey everyone, So this is especially because I want to try Flex out (always been doing Flash). I recently had some Flash CS3 training and got to play for a bit with the button component in Flash. Unfortunately, in the tutorial, I put the button component behind a mask in the demo. Of course, the text for the button label didn't show up - because of the Flash player bug that device fonts behind a mask are a no-no. Is this something that can be solved anyway? I don't know the methods and properties behind the CS3 components or ESPECIALLY the Flex component framework well enough to know if I can access any text fields inside the components to be able to embed the fonts properly and shut off device text on the fields. Anybody with any experience with this? Are components behind a mask a no-go, or is it do-able? Thanks! ben ___ 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
Re: [Flashcoders] Flash8 Remoting 2.0
Make sure your OS is up to date. There's regular updates for msi installers. Windows XP Service Pack 2 contains Windows Installer 3.0. If your OS is up to date, try this: This thread will tell you how to have the installer create a log file.

RE: [Flashcoders] Input field bug in firefox when embedding swf withWMODE as transparent og opaque
Re: Some version of Firefox apparently stops ALT-key characters entered in SWF textfields when WMODE is used. That might be true. First step would be the Firefox documentation -- check OS & browser version against known issues, and either ask your audience to upgrade or just stopping trying to be so fancy in the frail and varied browsers. It's also possible that this particular content triggers an odd failure in a particular browser brand/OS/version combo -- making a very simple HTML file, as well as a barebones SWF, and testing it on different machines with different keyboards would be the fastest way to detect this. jd ___ 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
RE: [Flashcoders] wmode performance headache
I don't have full details about changes in each browser version. There are two performance hits described here: (a) running things in a browser (Projectors (and presumably Apollo) are fastest; different browsers have different strategies in allocating processor cycles to plugins); (b) piping the plugin's content to the browser for compositing, rather than directly-to-screen (WMODE). If your tests show that a particular version of Microsoft Internet Explorer performs much worse than other browsers do, then a good first step is to generalize the observation... confirm it with basic barebones SWF/HTML (no plugin-in-DIV, no rapidfire messaging etc), and confirm it on multiple machines. I haven't heard many people previously report "IE freezes w/WMODE" -- if that were *always* the case then we'd see more of an uproar on the lists. That's what makes me wonder whether there's a particular dependency in this case, that gives you dramatically worse performance than what others see. But there *will* be a performance degradation when playing within a browser, and when asking the browser to blend the plugin's content into its own rendering engine. It shouldn't cause an outright freeze, but there will indeed be a cost to performance. jd ___ 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

Uh, you can still do that with my code - just modify it as needs be. You know how long each array is, you can move out from the center by moving one place back in the arrray in one direction, one way in the other by increasing the position in the array. Take it or leave it I guess.

Re: [Flashcoders] wmode performance headache
In normal situation, flash player draws directly to the rectangular area of screen it resides in . But when wmode is set, the job is routed through browser. So basically, the setting wmode value puts performance at the mercy of the browser . If the browser has a bad implementation of wmode, then it would result in poor performance. Its a well known fact that setting wmode to transparent results in extremely bad performance in Gecko browsers.

[Flashcoders] External preloader using loadClip() - is it a good idea?
Dear flash coders,
I wonder, if it is a good idea at all and surprisingly
can't find any related discussions in the archive -
I have a bigger Main.swf (224 KB, because of playing
card pictures + v2 components) and for preloading it
I've created this (only 400 bytes small) Load.swf
of the same width, height and frame rate:
var depth:Number = 10;
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var cont_mc:MovieClip =
this.createEmptyMovieClip('cont_mc', depth++);
var load_txt:TextField = this.createTextField('load_txt',
depth++, Stage.width / 2, Stage.height / 2, 200, 100);
mcl.addListener(this);
//mcl.loadClip('Main.swf', _root);
mcl.loadClip('Main.swf', cont_mc);
function onLoadInit(target_mc:MovieClip,
loaded:Number, total:Number):Void {
load_txt.text = Math.ceil(loaded * 100 / total) + '%';
}
function onLoadInit(target_mc:MovieClip) {
load_txt._visible = false;
// XXX have to pass variables manually :-(
target_mc.userid = _root.userid;
target_mc.pass = _root.pass;
target_mc._lockroot = true;
target_mc.play();
}
My "universal preloader" kind of works, but
I'm not really sure - because when I (CTRL-)click
"reload" button in MSIE or Firefox, then the Main.swf
displays instantly, without re-preloading again...
(Is there a way to clear flash player's cache?)
One more annoyance is that I have to copy
the _root.userid and _root.pass needed by
Main.swf manually...
And the final (and probably most stupid question)
is, why can't I call mcl.loadClip('Main.swf', _root) ?
Isn't _root a MovieClip too? (Despite rereading docs,
I'm confused by the _root and _levelX stuff.)
Thank you for any thoughts (I'm sure everyone
had considered an external preloader like mine
at some point... So are you using it?)
Regards
Alex

[Flashcoders] Trap mouseDown events
If I have a listener that's getting onMouseDown events, is there any way that I can stop those events getting to it? I'm trying to make an event that happens when I click anywhere *except* certain buttons. I hoped that I could set a flag on clicking the buttons, but unfortunately the onMouseDown event happens first. Otherwise, I'm going to have to do something like setting a flag on the mouseDown, *removing* the flag with the button click, then running my listener action on a timout or enterframe if the flag hasn't been removed.

[Flashcoders] custom mouse pointer using Actionscript 3.0
Hi All,
I tried the example for custom mouse pointer as shown in Flash cs3
documentation. It works fine. But when the pointer graphics is added from
library, it works in a weird way. Mouse gets over the pointer graphics
resulting in flickering and choppy animation.
I have posted the source files here:
http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?t=139310
Here is the code i am using:
// pseudoMouse is the class of an mc in Library
//pad is the instance name of an mc on stage
//When mouseover mc, the cursor shows up
package{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.ui.Mouse;
public class MouseManage extends MovieClip{
private var cursor:pseudoMouse;
public function MouseManage():void{
cursor=new pseudoMouse();
addChild(cursor);
pad.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,mOver);
pad.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT,mOut);
}
private function mOut(event:MouseEvent):void{
Mouse.show();
pad.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, redrawCursor);
cursor.visible = false;
}
private function mOver(event:MouseEvent):void{
Mouse.hide();
cursor.visible =true;
pad.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, redrawCursor);
}
private function redrawCursor(event:MouseEvent):void{
cursor.x = event.stageX;
cursor.y = event.stageY;
event.updateAfterEvent();
}
}
}
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

[Flashcoders] Input field bug in firefox when embedding swf with WMODE as transparent og opaque
Hi, I just finished creating af website where various swf files is embedded transparently. This is done in order to be able to place javscript popup wondows on top of the flash. Unfortunately I discovered that this causes a weird bug in firefox. Apparently no special characters (produces by the Alt Gr key) works in the input fields when running the flash in firefox which makes it hard for the user to type in their email adress for instance. When I set the WMODE to normal everything worls fine again, but then my javascript popups don't work properly. Anyone knows how to fix this and still use the transparent option?
