Re: [Flashcoders] Question regarding Bitmap distorting bottom half of Stage elements
sounds like you need to use 2 bitmaps drawn with copypixels and a clipping rectangle to capture the correct half and scale the bottom half with something like the flash and math BitmapTransformer http://www.flashandmath.com/intermediate/gummy/ hope this helps a On 16 June 2011 20:48, Eric E.

Re: [Flashcoders] Question regarding Bitmap distorting bottom half of Stage elements
Hi Eric, You could try making a shell MC that is duplicated so you have two MCs with the same content right on top of each other. Then mask one so it shows on the top half and the other to show on the bottom. With the one on the bottom being a lesser z access, and covered by the top (non-distorted view) you then distort just the mc on the bottom. You could even copy the bottom MC into a bitmap image. (hiding the real bottom mc) Then you can put your transformations on that copy and just recreate the bitmap of the bottom mc as you need for updating. Then you only have to update one MCs content and both will populate. Giving you the effect you desire with a little control. Well, something along those lines anyway.

Re: [Flashcoders] E4X: reading CDATA
CDATA is just an encoding trick to force the parser to not parse the data as containing tags. It represents plain old text so treat it like plain old text. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] E4X: reading CDATA
The cdata tags shouldn't be included in the read data. CDATA tags are part of the xml standard and are only used to wrap tags that could break the XML format - making the content safer, but without changing the content. This: nodeTest/node Should read the same as this: node![CDATA[Test]]/node So you shouldn't have to extract anything.

RE: [Flashcoders] E4X: reading CDATA
Sure...the reason is that in all the xml files I'm pulling in, I know the
structure, it's the same for all. There's only one item tag in each xml
file. So, I don't need an xmllist, given that there's only one item, I can
just call toString(). But, I see where you're coming from with an xmllist.
That would be the way I'd go if there were more than one item tags in each
file. Maybe the name of the tag, item, is misleading. I suppose that would be
a case of semantics.
Ultimately, I only need to call this line (using Greensock's XMLLoader):
private static function getTextContentComplete(le:LoaderEvent):void{
var xmlData:XML = XML(le.target.content);
var cdataContent:String = xmlData.toString();
// not needed...strip CDATA tags: string.replace(new
RegExp((^\!\[CDATA\[)(.+)(\]\]\), gi), $2);
// populate my textfield.htmlText with cdataContent;
}
Each xml file I read in has this structure:
===
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
item
![CDATA[some html formatted text]]
/item
Hope that's all clear.

I used BunnyMark (and the blitting counter part) for context: http://www.iainlobb.com/bunnies/BitmapTest.html iPhone 3GS results: Display List CPU: ~18 fps Display List GPU: 24 fps (constant frame rate) Blitting CPU: ~19 fps Blitting GPU: I have to retest, my build was screwed, and it got late. :-) I'll test iPhone 4 next. There is a problem though - I don't trust the numbers on the CPU. It looks choppier than the frame rate would suggest, with some noticeable hiccups that aren't reflected in the frame rate number. I suspect the problem is that Flash is skipping frames during rendering, but the ENTER_FRAME event is still ticking the FPS meter. Is there a way to ensure an FPS measure only ticks if there is a RENDER event? Would moving it from ENTER_FRAME to RENDER actually do that? I've only ever used RENDER with manual stage.invalidate() calls in ENTER_FRAME (and display list access all in RENDER, which might just be incorrect usage), and I suspect I'm actually disabling built in frame skipping by calling invalidate on every ENTER_FRAME event (because if the frame rate slows, so does the game logic) - I'm not really sure what the right way to use RENDER is. So I guess that's the question, if I don't bother with stage.invalidate() and continue to do my display list stuff in ENTER_FRAME, and only measure FPS in RENDER, will I get a more accurate framerate value?
