i = -1 should be i--; that's much faster :)

Hi Anthony,

I didn't test your code, but I think the problem lies in your for loops.
When you get such an error it is probably an index out of bounds.

You could try the following, didn't test it by the way.

workData.sortOn("pm");
for(var i:int = 0 ; i < workData.length - 1 ; i++)
{
if(workData[i].pm == workData[i+1].pm)
{
workData.splice(i,1);
i = -1;
}
}

Good luck,

Bernard

Thanks Jason and Juan,
I tested it out and the splicing works really well. One thing I'm noticing
is when I uncomment and add another index, I get a compile error. I messed
with the splice index number, but received unsuccessful results. Any
thoughts on this?

RE: [Flashcoders] Determining sound sample rate?

[Bernard Visscher]

Well, I was just looking @ my code when you posted this.
I found that I read the channels wrong for stereo (not joint), I use the
channel data to calculate how many samples I need.
I now tried starting @ frame 1 and no problems yet.
So I think it's my mistake, but I can't see why frame 2 always worked for me
:S

About the Meta data, that's true, but that is ignored when the correct seek
is used :)

Onderwerp: Re: [Flashcoders] Determining sound sample rate?

Bernard, are you sure the sample rate is sometimes wrong in the first frame
or you mean just the bitrate? I've put some code together to read the tags
and I always seem to get the right value for the sample rate (even for
Xing-encoded mp3's -- assuming those are the ones with a "Xing" string
within the first frame).

In most cases, it's true that the bitrate in the first frame doesn't match
the bitrate you can read if you hover the file name in Windows Explorer (in
Windows, of course), but that's most likely due to variable bitrates. (By
the way, I'm curious about how the explorer -- or any other software --
determines that "average" bitrate; is it really an average of all frames, is
just the bitrate of a fixed frame... does anyone have any clue?)

Anyway, it seems in some cases, the first frame stores some kind of metadata
(I've seen the string "LAME3.92" within the first frame of a Xing-encoded
file, for instance), so it's probably a good idea to go for the second
frame.

Cheers

RE: [Flashcoders] Determining sound sample rate?

[Bernard Visscher]

I would go for the second frame.
I've done some testing with loading MP3's in bytearrays then creating a SWF
in a bytearray with the mp3 data.
When I use the info from frame 1, 50% of the mp3's play with a wrong
samplerate/bitrate. I think this is done by the Xing encoder.
When I skip frame 1, all is ok.

Greetz,

Bernard

RE: [Flashcoders] [AS3] Using ByteArray as a FLV holder

[Bernard Visscher]

I must correct that, that is a swf hack to inject sound into a swf and the
load with the loader.loadBytes. I'm now trying to do the same with a flv.

I've read a lot and found that injecting bytes into netstream isn't
possible.

How do you do it with sound? For DisplayObject instances, there's
Loader.loadBytes, but I don't see an equivalent for Sound instances.

Hi all,

I was trying to load a FLV in a ByteArray and then attaching it to a
NetStream or something like that to display the flv. No luck yet!
Does someone know how this can be done?
I think I have to replace the data like you "can" do with sound.

[Flashcoders] Weird?? increment behavior..

[Bernard Visscher]

Hi all,

Just tested a simple function to check if the increments are done correctly.
I found the following a bit od.
Maybe some can shed a light on this..

base code:

//code
function test(myName:String,myNumber:Number):Void
{
trace(myName + " : " + myNumber);
}
var depth:Number = 1;
test('name' + depth, depth++); //traces name2 : 1
depth = 1;
test('name' + depth, ++depth); //traces name2 : 2
depth = 1;
test('name' + depth++, depth); //traces name1 : 1
depth = 1;
test('name' + ++depth, depth); //traces name2 : 1
//end code

I believe only the last 2 have the correct behavior, the first 2 don't.

when I test, test('name' + depth, depth++); I expect a trace like: name1 : 1
when I test, test('name' + depth, ++depth); I expect a trace like: name1 : 2

Is it my mind that's letting me down, or is it really a "bug" ?

Don't use the toLowerCase()
Because when I write my name like: "Bernard Visscher" I don't want the
output to be "Bernard visscher" with the lowercase V.

RE: [Flashcoders] String Empowerment

[Bernard Visscher]

Maybe you can do something with this.
It's an implemenataion of the Damerau-Levenshtein distance.
The output is equal to the minimal number of insertions, deletions,
substitutions and transpositions needed to transform one string into the
other. 
Could be handy for a spellchecker...
It's not optimized, just wrote it a few days ago for testing...

private static function compare(first:String, second:String):Number
{
if(first == "" || second == "") return null;

var f:Array = first.split("");
var s:Array = second.split("");

var dist:Array = new Array();

for(var i:Number = f.length+1 ; i--)
{
dist[i] = new Array();
for(var j:Number = s.length+1 ; j--)
{
if(i==0) dist[i][j] = j;
else dist[i][j] = 0;
}
dist[i][0] = i;
}

for(var i:Number = 1 ; i <= f.length ; i++)
{
for(var j:Number = 1 ; j <= s.length ; j++)
{
var cost:Number = ((f[i-1]==s[j-1])?0:1);
var dx:Number = dist[i-1][j]+1;
var dy:Number = dist[i][j-1]+1;
var dz:Number = dist[i-1][j-1] + cost;
dist[i][j] =
Math.min(Math.min(dx,dy),Math.min(dy,dz));

if(i > 1 && j > 1 && f[i] == s[j-1] &&
f[i-1] == s[j])
dist[i][j] =
Math.min(dist[i][j],dist[i-2][j-2]+cost);
}   
}

return dist[f.length][s.length];
}

RE: [Flashcoders] Attention Recursion & Speed Experts

[Bernard Visscher]

I don't know if I understand this correctly, but is it making a array flat?

Then this is the fastest way I think:

var foo : Array = ["a", "b", "c", ["d", "e",["d", "e",["d", "e",["d",
"e", "f", ["g", ["h"]], [[], "i"], "j"];
var fooString:String = foo.join(";");
fooString = fooString.split(",").join(";");
foo = fooString.split(";");

output:
a,b,c,d,e,d,e,d,e,d,e,f,g,h,,i,j

RE: [Flashcoders] 195 ms versus 57 ms ping time

[Bernard Visscher]

I depends...
If you're loading a lot of external resources, all calls will have the 195ms
delay and so it will take longer to load the complete site. It also depends
on the audience, if most people who visit this site are abroad they may be
faster then your local hoster.

But most important is speed (if you don't load many external resources). You
could simple test it by uploading a large file and download it. If the over
all speed isn't much slower then a local hoster I don't think it's a real
problem.

Just my 2 cents...

RE: [Flashcoders] modify sample rate in MP3 header?

[Bernard Visscher]

I don't believe it's possible like that.
MP3 doesn't store samplerate in the headers it's all over the place.
Just test with a simple mp3, delete the first mb with a texteditor now it
will play the remaining mp3 with the correct sample rate.

RE: [Flashcoders] call JS-Method from SWF in hidden on IE

[Bernard Visscher]

You could try a width and height of 0px and the overflow set to hidden.
I don't know if all browsers will accept 0px for the width or height,
therefor I made a simple js example:


function hideDiv(divId)
{
var d = document.getElementById(divId);
if(document.all){
d.style.width = "0px";
d.style.height = "0px";
d.style.overflow = "hidden"; 
} else {
d.style.visibility = "hidden";
}
}
hideDiv("testDiv");


Just place it just before the  tag.

Greetz,

Bernard

RE: [Flashcoders] IIS vs Apache: transferring of vars from swf to PHPproblem?

[Bernard Visscher]

You have to use $_GET or $_POST to get your variable.

I wouldn't use the mail script like this, you'll have to do some checking on
which data is passed.
mail() has a posibillity of header-injection.

RE: [Flashcoders] flash to detect/play files in a folder

[Bernard Visscher]

The only way is plan B.
The swf runs client side so it has no rights/methods to read the server
folders.

RE: [Flashcoders] loading a symbol (library item) into a new movieClip?

[Bernard Visscher]

Have an instance in your library and export it for actionscript.
Let's say the name you give for the export is "symbol"
The you could use:
attachMovie("symbol","myNewSymbolInstance",getNextHighestDepth());
 
> seems odd the programmer has to do this work... simply:

No it isn't because when you would assign another var to clip the movieClip
will still be on stage but with no reference.
What you could do is:

var n:Number = mc.getNextHighestDepth();
var clip:MovieClip = mc.createEmptyMovieClip("movieClip"+n,n);

Now all clips will have a unique name, because the depth number is attached.

RE: [Flashcoders] AS2 and watch ...

[Bernard Visscher]

Or a simple linedraw, I've used the watch once with the tween class.

var test_mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("test_mc",1);
test_mc.lineWidth = 0;

var f:Function = function(prop, oldVal, newVal){
this.clear();
this.lineStyle(1,0x00);
this.moveTo(0,25);
this.lineTo(newVal,25);
return newVal;
}

test_mc.watch("lineWidth",f);

this.onEnterFrame = function(){
test_mc.lineWidth++;
}

RE: [Flashcoders] euro symbol fight

[Bernard Visscher]

The escaped HTML Euro sign is %E2%82%AC 

So you could use something like: my_txt.htmlText = unescape("%E2%82%AC");

RE: [Flashcoders] 50 stars blinking... app gets too slow

[Bernard Visscher]

Following Weyerts suggestion to update all stars in 1 onEnterFrame.. Here is
a little demo (150 stars): http://www.debit.nl/flashcoders/stars.html

This is the code, just place it in the first frame and make a MovieClip and
export it for AS with the name "star"

var starCount:Number = 150;
var stars:Array = new Array();
var alphaSpeed:Number = 5;

for(var a:Number = 0 ; a0.5?1:-1) * ((Math.random() *
alphaSpeed) + 1);
stars.push(tmpStar);
}

onEnterFrame = function(){
var i:Number = 0;
while(i= 100){
stars[i]._alpha = 100;
stars[i].alphaSpeed *= -1;
}
i++;
}
}

RE: [Flashcoders] Re: Programmatically instantiating a class thatextends MovieClip

[Bernard Visscher]

I've tested the following a while ago and it works perfectly.
It uses the acme ClassUtilities class.

MovieFactory:

import com.acme.ClassUtilities;

class nl.debit.util.MovieFactory {

private static var instance : MovieFactory;

public static function getInstance() : MovieFactory 
{
if (instance == null)
instance = new MovieFactory();
return instance;

MyClass:

class MyClass extends MovieClip{

beginFill(0x00);
moveTo(0,0);
lineTo(100,0);
lineTo(100,100);
lineTo(0,100);
lineTo(0,0);
endFill();
}
}

Then use in your code:

var mClip:MovieClip = MovieFactory.createMC(_root,"test",MyClass);

I'm in with that. IMO you should only say "We need people! This is our
portfolio, if you think you can help us give us a call!"
I think every good AS programmer can program javascript and thus AJAX sites
(If they want to is another issue ;)).
I'm just meaning to say, I really do think it's a bit useless to ask for
experience in some kind of language.
You did it rather nicely to only say AS or AJAX, but I see very much job
postings with "With a good knowledge of PHP, ASP, ASP.NET, XHTML, HTML, CSS,
PERL, JS, SQL, C# etc etc..."
The best way IMO is getting to know people in a reallife conversation and
maybe ask them a few logical questions that a good programmer can answer,
not covering one (script)language.

Greetz,

Bernard

RE: [Flashcoders] About OOP metodology

[Bernard Visscher]

I think you could do this the MVC way
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_view_controller)
The only thing that really changes is your view, the model and the
controller are almost the same.
You could even write a model, controller and view which holds all fields and
logic that returns in all the forms.
Then you extend those to meet the needs for this particular form.

This is the same way edibol as wrote I see now... Quote: "You could even
abstract the technical logic from the UI completely and write
communicators/controllers that respond to events fired from the ui
(movieclips)."

RE: [Flashcoders] Server app for video to swf conversion?

[Bernard Visscher]

I know it's a bit late to answer this post.. But ;)
When you use ffmpeg (which works great) you should use flvtool2 to insert
the metadata like duration etc.
It kan be found at: http://www.inlet-media.de/flvtool2

A simple php sollution to execute ffmpeg and then the flvtool2 would be (if
you have the rights): 

$shell = '/usr/bin/ffmpeg -i '.$uploadedfile.' -acodec mp3 -ab 96 -f flv -s
320x240 -ar 44100 -pass 2 -b 400 -r 25 -y '.$outputfile.' ; flvtool2 -U
'.$outputfile;
$output =  exec($shell);

The ; seperator can be used in the commandline to execute another process
when the first is finished.
You can easily test it on your box with something like: "ls ; ls -l"

Bernard

And if you do create packages as Jason proposed..
My personal preference is to create package names lowercase and begin the
classname with a Capital...
That way it's easy to read (I think..)

My 2 cents

in the same component. But I don't think that is what you want.

Thank you, Bernard, but my questions is, do you have a tutorial on the FLV
Playback component that shows how to do this? Or is there a coded way that
is shown in a tutorial?

Just download the flv's when the user hits the play button (show a thumbnail
of the first frame) and when the buffer is full it starts to play.
Users don't mind waiting a few seconds before a movie starts.

Onderwerp: [Flashcoders] Stopping FLV Playback download

Hello all,
I wonder if any of you could direct me to a resource that discusses how to
have download of a video in a FLV Playback component start only upon
interaction? I have a couple of videos on a page with other multimedia
available for download (Flash presentations on other HTML pages, PDFs) and
they are downloading at the same time so when someone clicks on the PDF
links they are trying to download them as the videos are downloading -
bogging down everything. If you know of a better way to do this as well you
could send me some pointers. Thanks in advance.

You could also use almost every digital camera which has "night shot".
That's also infrared. Just plug it into your fire wire port.

RE: [Flashcoders] Missing Pixels???

[Bernard Visscher]

Does the position of the swf sit on half pixels?
If so, try rounding the position to whole pixels.
This could help the breaking of small lines and fonts.

Onderwerp: [Flashcoders] Missing Pixels???

Hi:
I am having issues with screen clarity at run time.  

Background:
SWF A is loaded into movieclip Screener in SWF B.  Both SWFs are set for 30
fps.  SWF A and Screener measure 922x530.  SWF B is about 100 pixels larger
all the way around.  The target screen resolution is 1024x768.  SWF A
contains a screenshot of a software interface that takes up the whole
922x530.

Problem:
When the presentation runs and SWF A is loaded and is playing in SWF B,
we've noticed a slight blur (in some cases).  In others, it appears that
some of the words (which are on the software interface screenshot) appear to
be missing pixels (i.e. parts of some letters are missing).

Efforts:
We've tried resizing Screener and have had some success, but for some
reason, we cannot get it totally clear.
Any ideas?


Loren

You can add a listener to the Stage.

Stage.addListener(listener);

I had a question about this.  There is a solution in the archives

 where someone used onEnterFrame.  That solution was back in 2002.  Is
there a better alternative now?

My question is two-fold:  Is it possible to determine if the stage is
resizing larger?  smaller?  only height?  only width?


Ah, my mind is boggled!

You're right, unless the font is embedded Flash will render it as a "system
font" which means it will hopefully look as good as other aliased fonts in
the browser, but not better.

My suggestion is to take a look at Rob Taylor's Fontastic, it's pretty
ingenious. You might have to subscribe to his site.

RE: [Flashcoders] Font symbols and bold/italic (cont.)

[Bernard Visscher]

Hi,

IMO the only way to export all styles, like bold, italic etc is to have a
textfield on stage which embeds the font.
The textfield has to have HTML-render, and you have to type a letter (or
something like that) in all the styles you need.
So something like:
Regular
bold
italic

Now the font is available in all the styles and will work if you set a
dynamic field to render as HTML.

Taking this back to the original point, did you ever get one font embedded
that has plain, bold, italic & bold italic symbols so if you have a html
text field with all of those styles inside it will display correctly?

I have never managed to do this & would like to know if its possible. I have
no trouble using shared assets movie clips, fonts, sounds etc its just this
one last thing that would make me very happy.

If you want to do run-time embed rather than author-time embed, you follow
the exact same procedure, except that the linkage for your font library
would be "Export for runtime sharing" instead of "Export for ActionScript".
I tried it with a really complex font called "JokerMan" and my resulting
filesizes were 44KB for fontLibrary.swf and just 124 bytes for fontTest.swf
(the consuming swf).

Okay, this works, thanks for that. But it makes no sense to me. The two 
files are both about 20k, so they can't contain the font outlines. So in 
what sense is this font embedded? As far as I can see, what this is doing is

linking to a font named Arial, but someone without Arial on their system 
won't see it. (it does have the advantage that if I want to globally change 
the font, I just do it in one place, but that's all). So how can I embed the

actual font outlines in the way I do for a local font?

Oh - and incidentally why the hell do I have to select 'export for 
actionScript' instead of 'export for runtime sharing'?!

RE: [Flashcoders] self published.

[Bernard Visscher]

Maybe if you have engough clients you could use a dedicated server for all
your clients with a maintenance contract so you don't have to do everything
yourself ;) But Yes Red5 needs java.
You can do something like this with php-sockets but then the hoster will
have to set safemode off (because of the runtime limit) and you will have a
permanent running script. I don't think the hoster will like to have that ;)

Red5 requires a jvm (or jre) on the server, if I read correctly.  I've been
trying to get my host to install one for shared hosting accounts, and would
use this red5 over localconnection if I were lucky enough to have java.

RE: [Flashcoders] maxDepth for dynamic movieclips?

[Bernard Visscher]

Well, I think the max depth is a 16bit integer, so the max would be 2^16
about 64k. But when you reach that I think the client will run out of memory
;)

But lets say you would like to do that, you could also have a few "holders"
that all start at depth 1:
mainMovie:
  - holder 1 @ depth 1
  - holder 2 @ depth 2
  - holder 3 @ depth 3

Holder 1 (@ depth 1 in the main)
  - image 1 @ depth 1 in the holder 1
  - image 2 @ depth 2 in holder 1

Etc...

RE: Re[4]: [Flashcoders] Shared fonts

[Bernard Visscher]

Well about a week ago I had Flex seminar organized by Adobe in Utrecht, The
Netherlands.
There I was told that about 80% of the users have FP8.
They found it was a good figure, 80% in one year!

80% is a little high. Is that based on perception or on the latest
figures from Adobe?  Because as of the latest NPD Online - Worldwide
Survey Adobe publishes on their site, it's more like 69.3% in the U.S.,
76% in Eurpoe. 

http://www.adobe.com/products/player_census/flashplayer/version_penetrat
ion.html

80% *might* possibly be true with a specific demographic within the
general internet public, but in my consulting/contracting experience it
seems to be still Flash 7 in many large enterprises -I'm basing that on
my interactions with 8 federal agencies and 2 large private companies -
not a large sampling, but...

That's true, but it won't take long before FP8 is the way to go. Now about
80% of the users have FP8..

With bitmaps you could use the bitmapdata to draw it in another movie.
Lets say you have a movieclip which holds a logo (library name:
companyLogo).
In that movieclip, you'll have to have something like this as code:

import flash.display.*;
function attachMe(target:MovieClip, objectName:String){
var t:MovieClip =
attachMovie(objectName,"image",target.getNextHighestDepth(),{_x:5000,_y:5000
});
var b:BitmapData = new BitmapData(t._width,
t._height,false,0x00);
b.draw(t);
t.unloadMovie();
target.attachBitmap(b,target.getNextHighestDepth());
delete b;   
}

Now from another movie you load the holder (lets say holder.swf)

And you can call: holder.attachMe(__myTargetClip,"companyLogo");

You're right Ivan.. If you look closely you'll see that it's similar and not
the same.
The way I use the libs there is NO AS code in the libs, only in the class
that imports the fonts.
Your sollution has a bit of AS in the libs to register the fonts.

Respect yes! Ofcourse! But it can't be that, because you found a way to load
fonts, other people can't create their sollutions.

RE: Re[4]: [Flashcoders] Shared fonts

[Bernard Visscher]

I agree that Zarates sollution with one swf is very nice! And will work in
most cases.
The only problem is that you are bound to the glyps Flash imports for a
font-object.
The workaround would be to create a swf with SWFMill so you can specify all
glyps or use textfields then you can specify them yourself, but then you'll
have to have two swf's.
One for runtime export and one for runtime import, that's the case.

RE: Re[4]: [Flashcoders] Shared fonts

[Bernard Visscher]

Hi Zarate,

I don't know either ;)
I think Ivan means the principle of my code and the priciple of the
sharedfonts system
They both use 2 swf's for loading the font.
There can't be copyright on that, because that's the only way the
flashplayer allows fonts to be dynamicaly loaded.
And it's no "secret" code or something, just a player posibility..

Well, dubious copyrights aren't an issue with this code. The basic maybe the

architecture ;)

Ivan.. Maybe you can update SFM, feel free to use this code. In my opinion
SFM is "too old" and can't be successfully used in an FAME (or other)
enviroment.

[Flashcoders] Shared fonts

[Bernard Visscher]

Hi all,

Last weeks/months I see more and more questions about shared fonts.
I've used the following for about a year now and it works for me.
The basic is the same as sharedfonts (2 swf's to load the fonts), I'm sorry
for all the people behind sharedfonts for this.

Example: http://www.debit.nl/flashcoders/fonts/
FontLoader.as : http://www.debit.nl/flashcoders/FontLoader.txt
Source of the example: http://www.debit.nl/flashcoders/FontLoader.zip

Good luck with the code.

RE: [Flashcoders] sending HTML image map data to Flash

[Bernard Visscher]

This should work:

var xmlString:String = this.toString();
var indexBegin = xmlString.indexOf("")+6;
xmlString = xmlString.substring(indexBegin,indexEnd);

xmlString = xmlString.split("").join(""); //Delete all  added
by flash
var areaArray:Array = xmlString.split(" in front
xmlString += areaArray.join(" in front.

this.parseXML(xmlString);
var mapNode:XMLNode = this.firstChild;

RE: [Flashcoders] sending HTML image map data to Flash

[Bernard Visscher]

I don't know how with imageready.
One thing you could do is replace all "" with "".

But before you do that delete all  entries, because flash add's
them(not at the correct place) if you don't use closed area-tags.

RE: [Flashcoders] sending HTML image map data to Flash

[Bernard Visscher]

__xml = new XML();
__xml.ignoreWhite = true;
__xml.onLoad = function(success:Boolean){
var xmlString:String = this.toString();
var indexBegin = xmlString.indexOf("")+6;
xmlString = xmlString.substring(indexBegin,indexEnd);
this.parseXML(xmlString);
var mapNode:XMLNode = this.firstChild;
trace(Flashout.INFO + mapNode.firstChild); //traces the first area
(rect)
}
__xml.load("imagemap.html");

The mapNode will hold all area nodes and you can access them as normal
XMLnodes

The one thing you should do is close all areas, the map should look
something like:

RE: [Flashcoders] sending HTML image map data to Flash

[Bernard Visscher]

You can also load the html file with the XML loader.

Something like:

var __xml = new XML();
__xml.onLoad = function(succes:Boolean){
if(success) trace(this);
else trace("Error loading file");
}
__xml.load("imagemap.html"); 

Now it will trace the full html-file.

RE: [Flashcoders] Timeout from Flash page

[Bernard Visscher]

 Sorry, didn't read the question right.
The below still stands imho.

But you could start a global timer and on every mousemove or keypress reset
it.
If the timer reaches it's end, give the user a popup with a 30 sec answer
period.
If the user doen't interact, unlock the file and the user is readonly.

RE: [Flashcoders] Timeout from Flash page

[Bernard Visscher]

You could go for a serverpage that is polled every minute or so from the
flashclient, with sendandload or xmlsocket.
If the poll doesn't arrive anymore, unlock the file. This way the file could
be locked for one minute when a client has gone, not more...
Don't put the unlocking logic into a client...

RE: [Flashcoders] TextField using shared font is not s howing character such ã, á, ç...

[Bernard Visscher]

Hi Marcelo,

You could try loading the text as HTML-text in flash.
Then in cakePHP before you outpur your text use:

$output = htmlspecialchars(htmlentities($output));

Now all chars that are not in the 32-127 (ascii) range will be changed to
something like ë for ë

Greetz,

Bernard

RE: [Flashcoders] External Interface Class + form tag

[Bernard Visscher]

If I'm correct they use something like:
Flash = window.flashObject; 
Or
Flash = window.document.flashObject;
To call the object.

Try setting this to flash = document.getElementById("flashObject");

This works with all browser, at least all browsers that support the
ExternalInterface.

RE: [Flashcoders] hitTest difference between attached mc and one placedon stage in authoring

[Bernard Visscher]

Hi Paul,

The problem is that you attach it as Player_Object and refer to it as
mcDolphin.

Changing:
if (game_mc.bg_mc.hitTest(game_mc.mcDolphin._x, game_mc.mcDolphin._y, true))
{
Into:
if (game_mc.bg_mc.hitTest(game_mc.Player_Object._x,
game_mc.Player_Object._y, true)) { 

Solves the problem.

Greetz,

Bernard

RE: [Flashcoders] CSS and Embedded fonts

You have to use the real font name in the css, then you can use embedded
fonts.

You don't need to use apply() on a separate line - just add () after the
eval, as in my example:

this[myFunctionString]();

RE: [Flashcoders] It exists in director but in flash ?

I think this will work:

function test(){
trace("test");
}

var str:String;
str = eval("test");
Function(str).apply();

Is there any way in Flash 8 to tell the compiler to run a string as if it
was a method ? See the exemple below :

 

var tempString:String;

tempString = "anObject.doSomething()"

 

and having the string being interpreted as a command ? I thought I could do
that with eval but it doesn't seem to work.

 

I remember that with Director you could use the "do" command using a string,

[Flashcoders] OT: Windows XP Level2 Cache mostly incorrect

[Bernard Visscher]

Good morning (here..) everyone,

I just read that Windows XP at installation sets the Level2 cache to 0 in
the registry.
I've changed it to my real L2 cache and had an improvement in speed of 40%
with Sorenson encoding. So that's why I think it's interesting for all here.

First open regedit (start->run->regedit)
Then search the key:
hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\control\session manager\memory
management
Then at the sub key "secondleveldatacache" you fill in your real L2 cache.
Hex value 200 for 512kb, 400 for 1Mb etc..
Then reboot.

DON'T fill in a larger value than the real L2 cache, it will result in a
BSOD.

If you don't know your L2 cache you can use this program:
http://www.cpuid.com/download/cpu-z-131.zip

Good luck!

Greetz,

Bernard

RE: [Flashcoders] More than 1 font in textfield

[Bernard Visscher]

Hi Franto,

Yes this is possible.
You create a (few) textfield(s) that embeds alle needed fonts and
bold/italic etc. 
Then you assign a stylesheet to the field you want to use with multiple
fonts or just use:
Font1 testFont2 bold
test

Greetz,

Bernard
