RE: [Flashcoders] panels / workspace CS4 bug

[Merrill, Jason]

>> maybe I should try the flashBuilder...

Try FlashDevelop - www.flashdevelop.org.  Flashbuilder is still actually
Flexbuilder and you have to pay for it.  FlashDevelop is the best free
AS editor out there.  I don't know why anyone would spend blood, sweat
and tears in the Actions panel in Flash CS3/4 unless they were just
doing some light coding on the timeline.  Just my opinion.

Re: [Flashcoders] panels / workspace CS4 bug

[Pedro Kostelec]

It often happens to me too and it's boring.  But you don't have to reset the
workspace, you just have to minimize the action panel by click on the top
darker bar, then open it by clicking the new Actions buttons and there
resize.

am i clear enough?

Re: [Flashcoders] panels / workspace CS4 bug

[Glen Pike]

No, but I get problems with the docking panel "stack order" messing up 
in CS3 - if I have SWF's that run @ the screen size, the IDE gets it's 
knickers in a twist sometimes and stacks the SWF behind the panels...


Only way to fix is to delete the workspace file - because I have to keep 
doing this, I made a copy of a working file and normally restore that 
which fixes stuff.


The GUI stuff has been really flaky in the last 2 versions of Flash - I 
hate it because redrawing is so slow, before you know it your panel has 
automatically snapped into a "dock" somewhere totally bizarre / invisible...

does it happens to you people too?

[Flashcoders] ? Sync SWF applications cannot be authored for Flash 8

[Andrew Sinning]

I've been playing around with the Breeze Sync SWF SDK for the last few 
days.  It is working for me, although I've got a lot of kinks to work 
out.  I've been assuming that my problems have to do with my 
implementation, but I just notices this message, stated very clearly and 
multiple times in the documentation:


   Sync SWF applications cannot be authored for Flash 8

I'm authoring for F8 and it seems to be working just fine.  Are there 
some surprises out there?


I've just tested the most basic sample project supplied with the SDK, 
recompiled for F8 under:


   Windows IE7
   Windows FF-3.0.4
   Mac FF-3.5.3
   Mac Safari-4.0.3

I have the very latest Flash plugins installed.

[Flashcoders] opening multiple instances of swf in Flash player

[Andrew Sinning]

I'm working with the BreezeServicesEmulator, and it doesn't appear to 
work with swfs running within the browser, at least not using Flash 
Player 8 with AS2 under Windows Firefox.


So, to test my project I need to run one swf with the 
BreezeServicesEmulator and then two instances of the client swfs within 
the Flash Player.  I'm unclear on how to do this.  When I compile my 
movie under CS3, the Flash Player that  opens doesn't have a file open 
new command, or does it?

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 Socket is broken and I need help from Adobe or any Socket Expert

[Cedric Muller]

?

Sockets (not in AIR) are fine by me. I am surely missing the obvious  
here, but sending a 100k data to my socket in Flash works like a charm.


Regarding your trace output, it seems the socket fails at the second  
packet, like it is loosing it is progress


what if you do trace(event.target.readUTFBytes 
(event.target.bytesAvailable));


?

hth timnh,

Cedric

I feel your pain, wish I could help, have similar issues with the  
socket being unreliable...


Maybe we need another "Adobe Make Some..." site/campaign.

"Adobe Make Some {OptionalExpletive[0]} Fixes to the  
{OptionalExpletive[1]} socket, {OptionalExpletive[2]}!"


or similar.  I will put a badge on my site :)

Socket progress events stop firing if "too much" data is coming  
across the socket, and apparently, what counts as too much data is  
very very small.


I'm trying to send 14,522 bytes across the socket to Flash and  
Flash simply stops accepting data after 2 packets and occasionally  
reports 2-3 more progress events of the same size.  Like this:


986 / 14522
4380 / 14522
4380 / 14522
4380 / 14522
4380 / 14522

I'm stripping data off the Socket as it comes in and putting it  
into a ByteArray buffer, so the data isn't just sitting on the  
Socket.


protected function onData(event:ProgressEvent):void
{
socket.readBytes(bufferIn, 0, socket.bytesAvailable);
trace(bufferIn.bytesAvailable + " / " + header.length);
}

Wireshark clearly shows all the data is arriving on the socket,  
but Flash stops reporting all progress after a few packets.


If I drop the bytes per response down to 892, it works fine.  The  
next step up is 1037 and that breaks.  So, it's looking like 1024  
is the maximum size you can send to the Flash Socket before it  
breaks.


I'm at my wits end with this.  There's nothing but people  
complaining about this online and absolutely zero answers or  
solutions.


Oliver?  Anyone from Adobe?  Can somebody please shed some light  
on this issue that has basically halted our development?

RE: [Flashcoders] Runtime bitmap caching causing a MovieClip to notrender

[Andrew Murphy]

Hi.

That sounds like it might be what happened.  The timeline with the gradient 
MovieClip on it is only three frames long, it animates the gradient by setting 
it's properties programatically rather than a timeline animation, and it only 
changes frames using the next() method, but I guess it still counts as an 
animated timeline.

Thank you. :)

F9 brings up the Actionscript editor for an open FLA file.

You can "toggle" the toolbox screen  (left of  2 column view) by 
clicking the rightmost icon in the icon bar of the Actions tab.

Hi,

   Yes and it's a really powerful tool too:
  
   Ctrl + F, or Edit->Find & Replace...  (CTRL + F becomes second 
nature in Adobe's stuff)


   You can search for "Text", or other things (leave "Text" selected, 
type in your term & make sure the ActionScript box is ticked, then press 
Find Next).


   You can replace too...

   It's v. similar to Dreamweaver's find & replace, but not as 
"dangerous" as it won't let you modify external files..

[Flashcoders] Searching all ActionScript in an FLA

[Arka Roy]

I have FLA files from a client with numerous MovieClips and buttons
containing ActionScript all over the place.  I am not used to this, I only
started using Flash with AS3 and have always used a Document Class and
placed my ActionScript in external .as files.
I am trying to search through the ActionScript to find some text.  Is their
any way (tool etc.) to search through all ActionScript in a FLA?   Why
doesn't Adobe put in such a search function, it sounds so basic to me.  Or
am I not understanding something about Flash usage?

Thanks.
