[Flashcoders] How do I remove methods of superclass in AS2?
Hiya, thanks for checking this. I have a custom class that I am using
as kind of button. The thing is I now want to remove the onPress and
onRelease methods as there is a nested movieclip I want to attach
these events to.
What I would like to know is can I remove or nullify the methods of a
superclass from the subclass?
Any help very much appreciated, an outline of my code is below.
Thanks :)

RE: [Flashcoders] How do I remove methods of superclass in AS2?
How about:
class Classes.NoAnswerBut extends Classes.AnswerBut{
function NoAnswerBut(){trace(NoAnswerBut created);}
public function onPress(){}//no actions here
public function onRelease(){}//no actions here
}
Another option is to override the actions.
Otherwise if you want to get rid of the mouse events you could do this:
class Classes.NoAnswerBut extends Classes.AnswerBut{
function NoAnswerBut(){
trace(NoAnswerBut created);
onPress = undefined ;
onRelease = undefined ;
delete(onPress);
delete(onRelease);
}
}
However, I recommend this one:
// superclass
class Classes.AnswerBut extends MovieClip{
function AnswerBut(){
trace(AnswerBut created);
onPress = _onPress
onRelease = _onRelease
}
public function _onPress(){
//actions here
}
public function _onRelease(){
//actions here
}
}
//subclass
class Classes.NoAnswerBut extends Classes.AnswerBut{
function NoAnswerBut(){
trace(NoAnswerBut created);
// not sure if you even need to do this:
// as long as you don't call super();
onPress = undefined ;
onRelease = undefined ;
delete(onPress);
delete(onRelease);
}
}
Hope this helps...

The height and width are both set from the same XML source; W: 100 H: 80 // START OF FLOW Push the increase button, here is the code from the button selectedImage.width *= 1.1; selectedImage.height *= 1.1; imgWidthVar *= 1.1; imgHeightVar *= 1.1; The image and bounding MC change in size, here is the Trace info of the values (please note there has been no rotation)...

[Flashcoders] PrintJob - Mac vs. PC PDF error
Hey all, I have a project containing a diagram that needs to be printed. Often the diagram is too large for a single page, so it's sliced/spread over multiple pages. Further, there's an option that the page may include a header and footer. The code was all developed and tested on a Mac and works great. When we print on a PC, we get a PDF error. In most cases the print will still work, but in one specific case (multi-page with header/ footer) it doesn't work at all on PC. Curious if anyone has seen this issue before...

Hi Glen thanks for your reply, this is a continuation really from what you told me about Pythagoras to do this i need the actual image height and width. Normally i would do it this way but when the selected image is rotated selectedImage will be wider than imageWidth and will not output the correct information.

Re: [Flashcoders] PrintJob - Mac vs. PC PDF error
Hi, I have been doing some work with PrintJob in AS2 Flex recently. I managed to get it working okay for single pages in AS2 and 2 page spreads in AS3, not sure what you mean by a PDF error, but are you sure it's not your printer driver. I have been using CutePDF Writer which has been fine on the PC. For Mac, I think it was the Acrobat printer, but not 100% as it was a friends computer. Can you be more specific about the error - does it occur when printing, or is it when you open the resulting PDF? I have not done header footers yet, but I guess this is just a case of making up your MovieClip / Sprite to include these, so should not have much of a bearing...

events as you suggested
onPress = undefined ;
onRelease = undefined ;
delete(onPress);
delete(onRelease);
but now my nested mc will not fire any mouse events, I am guessing
that these mouse events have been removed for any nested clips in
that mc too. I've un-nested my movie clip to solve the problem and it
all works fine.

Re: [Flashcoders] Random incriments [AS3]
Hi, I am a bit confused as to what you want to do... If you rotate the image, I think it will return the width and height of it's bounding box, but I think you are saying you want to shrink the bounding box so it matches your original size??? - If you do this, you will shrink the image too. I am guessing you are trying to store your original unrotated width and height of the image for later? But you can calculate your actual image size from the bounding box values you have too... From your diagram - I think you have X2 and X on the wrong axis - but using your variables and assuming 0, 0 is at the bottom left hand corner (it may not be in the Flash Player): w2 = Math.sqrt( (WIDTH - Y) * (WIDTH - Y) + (X2 * X2)); h2 = Math.sqrt(Y * Y + (HEIGHT - X2) * (HEIGHT - X2)); Look at Proof #4 on this page if you want to see what I mean. http://www.cut-the-knot.org/pythagoras/index.shtml HTH Glen SJM - Flash wrote: Hi Glen thanks for your reply, this is a continuation really from what you told me about Pythagoras to do this i need the actual image height and width.

RE: [Flashcoders] How do I remove methods of superclass in AS2?
That is why I recommend this approach:
class Classes.AnswerBut extends MovieClip{
function AnswerBut(){
trace(AnswerBut created);
addMouseEvents();
}
public function _onPress(){
//actions here
}
public function _onRelease(){
//actions here
}
public function removeMouseEvents(){
onPress = undefined
onRelease = undefined
delete(onPress)
delete(onRelease)
}
public function addMouseEvents(){
onPress = _onPress
onRelease = _onRelease
}
}
Which you can override in your class:
class Classes.NoAnswerBut extends Classes.AnswerBut{
function NoAnswerBut(){
addMouseEvents()
}
public function _onPress(){
//other actions here
}
public function _onRelease(){
// other actions here
}
}
So that way when you removeMouseEvents(), you still keep the actions and can
re-assign them at the onPress/onRelease handlers...
I would also recomend you use the Delegate class for this... to do something
like ...
onRelease = Delegate.create( this, _onRelease )
keeps the calls in scope if you are assigning events to sub movieclip.

Subject: [Flashcoders] How do I remove methods of superclass in AS2?
Hiya, thanks for checking this. I have a custom class that I am using
as kind of button. The thing is I now want to remove the onPress and
onRelease methods as there is a nested movieclip I want to attach
these events to.
What I would like to know is can I remove or nullify the methods of a
superclass from the subclass?
Any help very much appreciated, an outline of my code is below.
Thanks :)

RE: [Flashcoders] How do I remove methods of superclass in AS2?
Override the functions instead with the override keyword. Something like
this:
override public function onPress(e:Event):void
{
}

Re: [Flashcoders] PrintJob - Mac vs. PC PDF error
Thnx Glen, I forgot to mention this is AS2 (an old project). No Flex involved, just Flash Player 8 ( above). background So, PrintJob offers the ability to spread out a large image over several pages. This works fine. The trickier part is a printout that requires a header MC and footer MC with each page (this is for a building diagram). By header I mean the header contains title, logo, and other stuff. The footer is a legend with parts and specs. Initially I tried to do this after PrintJob was fired, so I could know the size of the printout, but the extra frame needed for the new MCs to load caused the PrintJob to fail. As a workaround, prior to calling PrintJob, I calculate and layout pages for the most common formats. How do I make the pages? There's a couple of extra steps involved, but this is the basic idea: I first add the header and footer to a new page MC. Then I add in a portion of the diagram (via BitmapData) in the middle of the page. This is done for as many pages as needed. Then when I call PrintJob, I don't need to slice and dice... I just print a stack of page MCs. /background For testing, we're not actually printing out on paper, we're just creating PDF print-previews. So, regular slice and dice multi-page PDFs in PrintJob works fine. Also, creating a single page PDF with header and footer works fine, however a PD error message does pop up on PCs (but not on Macs). For a stack of pages (with header): PDFs are fine on my Mac but fail on PC, showing only a single blank page. I'm not familiar with PDF printing on PCs. It's just built-in for OSX so I assume that's the same for PC. -radley On May 1, 2008, at 6:28 AM, Glen Pike wrote: Hi, I have been doing some work with PrintJob in AS2 Flex recently.

[Flashcoders] Import image on runtime

In an Air - Flash CS3 application I am trying to Import an image with
browseForOpen() and getting the event.currentTarget of the File Object and
converting it to a BitmapData like this:
private function OnFileSelect(e:Event):void {
var BD:BitmapData = new BitmapData(300, 400, false);
var B:Bitmap = new Bitmap();
BD.draw(B);
addChild(B);// just in case
}
It is not working... Have I missed something?
Thanks

Re: [Flashcoders] PrintJob - Mac vs. PC PDF error
Hi, It sounds like you are going through the right process. Are you checking the return value of PrintJob.addPage() If it does not like what you are doing, it will return false, so you can catch this and maybe trace out an error to see if that is a problem I have just been using BitmapData to create a flat image of something I want to print and I found that I was ending up with blank pages unless I specified the 2nd matrix parameter of the BitmapData.draw method Don't know if that helps. PC's - you may need to install a PDF printer driver - like CutePDF Writer, which is free - unless you already have something there which does this. Saying that I noticed that Vista has a Microsoft Printer Driver that will create images in XP? format - you can do the same thing with this to save paper... I would recommend trying another printer driver to make sure your current one is behaving properly and eliminate that as the problem. http://www.cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp Glen Radley Marx wrote: Thnx Glen, I forgot to mention this is AS2 (an old project).

Re: [Flashcoders] Import image on runtime
You will probably need to load your file as an image/MC/similar first,
then draw that into your bitmap.

Re: [Flashcoders] How do I remove methods of superclass in AS2?
Doesn't make any difference - the same thing works in AS2, you just
don't use the 'override' keyword. Override has been added to AS3 to
perform additional compile checking (and possibly to allow
optimisation), not to add new functionality.
And, from whatever the other bit of the thread was:
onPress = undefined ;
onRelease = undefined ;
delete(onPress);
delete(onRelease);
You don't need both these operations - either setting to undefined
(null is better) or calling delete will do the job, no need for both.

Subject: [Flashcoders] How do I remove methods of superclass in AS2?
Hiya, thanks for checking this. I have a custom class that
I am using
as kind of button. The thing is I now want to remove the
onPress and
onRelease methods as there is a nested movieclip I want to attach
these events to.
What I would like to know is can I remove or nullify the
methods of a
superclass from the subclass?
Any help very much appreciated, an outline of my code is below.
Thanks :)
Ali
// superclass
class Classes.AnswerBut extends MovieClip{
function AnswerBut(){
trace(AnswerBut created);
}
public function onPress(){
//actions here
}
public function onRelease(){
//actions here
}
}
//subclass
class Classes.NoAnswerBut extends Classes.AnswerBut{
function NoAnswerBut(){
trace(NoAnswerBut created);
}
// I want to remove the onPress / onRelease
events in the class
definition here } ___

Re: [Flashcoders] Import image on runtime
You mean Loading it using the path from resolvePath()?

Hi list,
In an Air - Flash CS3 application I am trying to Import an image with
browseForOpen() and getting the event.currentTarget of the File Object
and
converting it to a BitmapData like this:
private function OnFileSelect(e:Event):void {
var BD:BitmapData = new BitmapData(300, 400, false);
var B:Bitmap = new Bitmap();
BD.draw(B);
addChild(B);// just in case
}
It is not working... Have I missed something?
Thanks

Re: [Flashcoders] Import image on runtime
I am not sure because I am not familiar with AIR and files, but to get
BitmapData you usually need a source, I don't think AIR will be able to
join up the source with a reference to a file without you actually
opening up the file somehow.
For Flash / Flex, you have to load it with Image / Loader from either an
absolute path or a relative one. I guess similar rules apply to AIR,
you just get access to the file system here...
Sorry I can't be of more help.
