[Flashcoders] Flash CS4 stage width x height

2008-10-16 Thread Cedric Muller

Hello list,

What are the width + height capabilities of flash 10 ?

up to CS3, only 2880 x 2880 were possible. Now I have a 4 full HD  
screens setup that would need to be handled by Flash :(


Any ideas ?

tia,
cedric

[Flashcoders] CDATA whitespace issue

2008-10-16 Thread Allandt Bik-Elliott (Receptacle)

hi folks

i'm writing some xml for my site to load in content and, because i  
want to use html, i'm using cdata in my description nodes.


The problem is that if i do the following:

[xml]
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
site
blog
/blog
portfolio
carousel
carouselItem name=Test imgUrl=icon_logo.png 
linkUrl=
description
![CDATA[p class=headingHeading/p
pDescription from xml./p]]
/description
/carouselItem
carouselItem name=Test imgUrl=icon_logo.png 
linkUrl=
description
![CDATA[p class=headingHeading/p
pDescription from xml./p]]
/description
/carouselItem
/carousel
/portfolio
contact
/contact
/site
[/xml]

which is the best structural way of creating it (in my opinion), the  
CDATA keeps the whitespace between the 2 lines which means that the  
best way (in as3's eyes) for me to do this is:


[xml]
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
site
blog
/blog
portfolio
carousel
carouselItem name=Test imgUrl=icon_logo.png 
linkUrl=
description
![CDATA[p class=headingHeading/p
pDescription from xml./p]]
/description
/carouselItem
carouselItem name=Test imgUrl=icon_logo.png 
linkUrl=
description
![CDATA[p class=headingHeading/p
pDescription from xml./p]]
/description
/carouselItem
/carousel
/portfolio
contact
/contact
/site
[/xml]

which is jarring to write (again, my opinion). Is there any way (like  
the old ignoreWhite param), that i can get as3 to strip the extra tabs  
and linebreaks (even within CDATA)?


thanks
a

Re: [Flashcoders] CDATA whitespace issue

2008-10-16 Thread Cedric Muller
I don't have the answer, but since you are using html, can't you just  
add br instead of linebreaks ?

p class=headingHeading/pbrpDescription from xml./p

Sometimes, I strip linebreaks from the text I parse in xml, but by  
doing this, you have to know for sure when you can apply such  
'hardcore' rule. This could result in breaking the readability of a  
paragraph.

hey cedric - thanks for your response

the linebreaks are purely aesthetic, to make it easier to write  
directly in the xml doc but, as you say, they could be stripped (i'm  
using p tags already but the net result is the same). I'm really  
just seeing how far i can go in my xml - the first option is my best- 
case scenario

yes I know, I am facing the exact same problem.
I love best-case scenarios, but with xml I couldn't achieve the first  
option, unless rendering the xml from a cms.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash CS4 stage width x height

2008-10-16 Thread Zeh Fernando
Flash has extended the limit of BitmapData instances, that were previously
limited to 2880x2880, to 4096x4096 (or, rather, any size that has a maximum
of 16,771,216 pixels, with a maximum of 8191 for either size).

I had never reached an actual *stage* limit, but then again I'm restricted
to normal human screen sizes. But since that bitmap size was extended, and
it's the same value, I'd bet that the stage now can be bigger too. I heard
this is the case with AIR applications (because apparently the AIR screen
composition relied on some Bitmap feature), so it must be with regular Flash
too.

Zeh
