[Flashcoders] Motion to combine coders and newbies.
Hear me out before freaking out. 1. Half of the posts in Coders are more or less Newbie posts anyhow. 2. There is just not a lot of traffic in Newbies. So, it's hard to pick Coders brains and honestly, most Newbie questions can be answered by a Coder in less than a minute. I post in Newbies, but answers can take days. Seems like Jason Merrill is one of the few Coders dedicated to helping out those less fortunate. 3. Making Newbies stronger benefits all. After a while, a typical dedicated Newbie will be able to field a lot of the other Newbie questions and the situation will level out. 4. But oh, the increased traffic! Please. I have a dedicated gmail account for this list. It threads the posts together and has practically unlimited storage and very good search. 5. Pound home the idea that Newbies need to title their posts as such "No0b: How do I make a movie clip?" Coders don't have to do anything. 6. What's good for Flash developers is good for the Flash Platform. Getting more Newbies to an intermediate level benefits the Flash Platform as a whole with better apps, better people in jobs to lobby for Flash, etc, etc. Ok, now you can freak out. -- count_schemula ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Re: [Flashcoders] pause an onEnterFrame?
Thanks everyone.
The onEnterFrame is not attached to any clip, but, I have a bunch of
balls bouncing around a screen, and I just wanted to pause them when
interacting with one of them.
I never really figured out how to pause the onEnterFrame. What I did
was, pull the setting of the variables for direction and velocity into
an init function that is only run once. The variables are not
destroyed when I delete the onEnterFrame, and when I want motion to
resume, I go to the same frame, basically refiring the onEnterFrame.

Re: [Flashcoders] has the user seen the animation? shared object?
At some point in the animation, I want to write to the shared object that the video has been viewed. If, so, then viewed = true and the next time the user visits the page they skip the animation and go straight to the ending screen. There is a replay button so the user could view the video if they choose. Would the SO interfere with this? And if so, could I just pass some variable to override it, specialCondition = true thanks On 2/8/07, Merrill, Jason <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >>Is "shared object" going to be the best way to do this?

[Flashcoders] Re: site check please: swfobject issues
I uninstalled the Flash Players from my FF and my IE7. When I went to the site, I got the text message to update the flash player and a link to the install page. So, that worked correct on both browsers. I installed Player 7 for FF and when i went to the site in FF, it upgraded the browser and that worked fine. I revisited the site, and it was fine, it did not force me to upgrade again, as she is claiming. I installed Player 7 for IE, or more accurately, the Active X control, and IE7 still thinks that there is no plug-in installed at all. I followed my text link to the player, and installed the plug-in and the site worked fine. I closed the browser and reopened it and went back and it was fine, it did not force me to upgrade. I don't have IE6 on my computer. Is there anyway to have both IE6 and IE7 on the same computer? I also don't have a Mac, which is her computer that she says makes her upgrade every time. I'm guessing she uses Safari, I have not heard back from her on that yet. Argh. I hate this part of Flash SO MUCH.

[Flashcoders] preloader not completely preloading...
I'm using the code at the bottom of this post.
Using the Simulate Download and the Bandwidth profiler, I have two
different files where it's basically downloading about 15% of the file
and then continuing playing.
The preloader starts to work correctly, but basically quits out
incorrectly around 15%.
Looking at the bandwidth profiler, it continues downloading in the
background while trying to (poorly) play.
Any obvious hangups?
No components are in use, all assets are inside the flash file. The
bandwidth profiler shows a linear download, 0 to 100%, just around 15%
or so it just goes on and tries the play the file after showing me the
preloader for the first 15%.
I've used this code successfully before, it's just that now I have a
deadline, so, I guess it totally makes sense that it does not work
now. Grr.
=== CODE ===
// preloader
function checkLoad(mcTarget:MovieClip):Void{
var nLBytes:Number = mcTarget.getBytesLoaded();
var nTBytes:Number = mcTarget.getBytesTotal();
var nPercent:Number = (nLBytes/nTBytes)*100;
mcLoader.mcBar._xscale = nPercent;
var sPercent:String = Math.floor(nPercent).toString();
var sKBytes:String = Math.floor(nTBytes/1024).toString();
var sMessage:String = sPercent + "% of " + sKBytes + "K loaded.";
mcLoader.tPercent.text = sMessage;
if (nLBytes >= nTBytes && nTBytes > 0) {
if (nCount >= 12) {
clearInterval(nProgress);
mcTarget.gotoAndPlay("main");
} else {
nCount++;
}
}
updateAfterEvent();

[Flashcoders] swfobject - make it failproof
For people publishing to Player 8, what steps are you taking when
swfobject + express Install fails?
For example, I don't think express install works with Flash Player 6
and some early versions of Player 7, which is causing me problems
sometimes.
I have text in the div id="flashcontent" so, they _should_ see my text
links and my link to upgrade the flash player, but sometimes I'm
hearing that the flash loads, but the Player 8 features (important
stuff like the text) is not showing up.
Here is my var so:
var so = new SWFObject("images/header_01.swf", "header_01", "800",
"150", "8.0.23", "#00", true);
so.write("flashcontent");
It mostly works, but, it's still not 100% and it's causing me strife.

Sorry for my delay; thanks to Ramses for the link. The Macromedia "activation" method mainly checks for many requests made on the same serial number in short succession. If you're installing on a new system, months after the last installation, then this wouldn't usually trigger any notice from the serial-authentication server. But to be sure, you can just choose the "Transfer this License" item from the Help menu, which will tell the server that you've removed the old installation. Should be okay either way, but it's better to hit that menu item if you can.

Re: [Flashcoders] {OT} Job Postings?
I'm struggling with this now, albeit at a lower level. I am confident in my skills and my abilities, especially my ability to pick things up quickly. I know I'm above average, but, in interviews, people always want to see something very specific. "Let me see an example of this exact thing in your portfolio." Well, I'm sorry, my portfolio is full of things I did to put food on the table, not to meet the specific demands of some interview I have not been on yet. If they'd look at my portfolio, they'd see than I was able to do a lot of very varied things and one could assume that a lot of it required solid problem solving skills that are very adaptable. Part of the problem is the people who write the job descriptions are still not realistic - expert in Maya, ASP, Java, Final Cut Pro Flash Actionscript and some arcane CRM I've never heard of. I just don't think there are many people who are experts in such diverse things. I can work all of the design software, and am so-so at some code stuff. I can do HTML, CSS, Coldfusion, mySQL. I can hack PHP scripts. I'm never going to learn Java or ASP. Another part of the problem, with corporate stuff anyhow, is being too far removed from the real job. You have to go through a recruiter and then through the corporation and it's like you never really get to the people you'd be working with. I guess design firms and agencies are not like this, but still... Superstars are just few and far between, and since they can write their own ticket, they are seldom seen. I agree with the comment about geography free skill based teams being the way. Get people who are experts in the various skills, and manage them. Can't do Java? No problem, we'll get one of our Java people to do it. -- count_schemula http://www.thelargeglass.com/flashNo0b/";>files for No0bs ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

[Flashcoders] Re: Flash 8 mail form via ColdFusion
Fixed.
I had to give the input fields Instance names, then use
form1.html = false;
for each input field to kill the HTML formatting.
Render as HTML was not checked, it still did it anyway.
Previous, they only had a Var name assigned for passing to Coldfusion.
Thanks!

I have a flash form that uses loadVariablesNum("cfmail.cfm", 0, "POST");
to take the input fields and send them via CFMAIL.

Re: [Flashcoders] Vob to FLV without Sound
Quicktime Animation is a lossless format. MPEG-4 and MPEG-1 are compressed. MPEG-4 in particular seems to crush the blacks, so you loose all your shadow detail. MPEG-1 has to be certain specified sizes as well. You are skipping a whole compression step. The file will be large though. I've used Virtual Dub before, it's simple but quality was good.

Re: [Flashcoders] Vob to FLV without Sound
Type "VOB quicktime" in google, a bunch of stuff came up. The "best quality" will come from: VOB -> Quicktime Animation -> FLV Handbrake would be: VOB -> .mp4 -> FLV And some of your other ideas are: VOB -> MPEG-1 -> FLV VOB is already compressed MPEG-2, so you want to skip any intermediate compression step, especially MPEG-1, with it rigid format structure and wacky audio of its own.

Re: [Flashcoders] Best way to learn OO Analysis and Design withActionScript
FWIW, I thought this book did a good job of of getting me past the jargon. Much more accessible to me than the Moock Essential AS2 has been. The Moock book is really good, but, I find it tough read.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash 7,8,9 , AS 2 and 3 - clarify the situation
FWIW, I did an informal survey on a forum I'm on of "car enthusiasts." Pretty normal computer users. Out of 15 responses 0 - Player 7 6 - Player 8 9 - Player 9 So, the adoption rate is pretty good. I asked, and nobody had any idea how they got Player 9. They were even surprised that they had it. So, no real need to play it conservative. Besides, since you need to use swfobject or similar to deal with Eolas, you might as well publish to Player 8.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash 7,8,9 , AS 2 and 3 - clarify the situation
Seems like the landscape is: Flash IDE 8 and Flash Player 8 is current. Player 8 offers some nice features like blurs, drop shadows, really really nice anti-aliased text and bitmap manipulation. Thing is, Flash Player 7 is better seeded in the world, so, if you publish to Player 8, you need to run swfobject or Adobe's Express Install to check player version and force an upgrade to player 8. Not _too_ hard on the user, but, they still have to experience a player upgrade. It is still quite common to use Flash MX2004 or Flash IDE 8 and publish to player 7. Flash Player 9 is kind of a bridge to the future? It has many performance improvements, and can use AS3. Flash IDE 9 will use AS3 and Player 9, but you can start tinkering around with AS3 now if you want. If you think some of the features of Player 8 are worth it (the text rendering is a lot better, shadows and blurs are a welcome addition) then check for and force the player upgrade. Flex uses AS3, so, there is that connection Adobe is using to get Flash developers going on the transition. Seems like Flex is going to take over the RIA market and Flash will be used for multimedia widgets and stuff like you already see out there now.

warning. I did go in and the line
System.security.allowDomain(name_of_domain). That still did not work. I
finally used the wild card allowDomain("*"). This also did not solve
the security problem. Is there something I am missing here. If I use the

I just added a crossdomain.xml to the web root. No change. The very same .swf file can pull this data when I do Test Movie. The server is an online remote host, not my local computer and not the webserver that hosts the flash file, ie, it's on a different domain, no matter whether I access it Test Movie or web hosted style.

Nope. Everything is nice and clean. It's a near virgin install.
Do you get the localhost call in the status bar as well?
It's super simple, it just seems like something about moving the file
online wrecks it. The very same .swf file pulls up the data if I play
it from my computer Test Movie style.

Re: [Flashcoders] lil' help with amfphp... works locally, not uploaded...
I have an amfphp install on both?
When I play it locally, seems like it connects remotely ok:

The amfphp service for Highscores:
For the *** values, I have the correct online db server information
methodTable = array(

// Initialize db connection
$this->conn = mysql_pconnect($this->dbhost, $this->dbuser, $this->dbpass);
mysql_select_db ($this->dbname);
}
function getScores() {
return mysql_query("SELECT * FROM highscores");
}

mysql_query("INSERT INTO highscores VALUES
(NULL,'".addslashes($scoreData['nickname'])."','".$scoreData['dateposted']."','".$scoreData['score']."')");
return mysql_insert_id();

I've switched folders, browsers etc try to see if it's a cache problem.

[Flashcoders] lil' help with amfphp... works locally, not uploaded...
http://www.flash-creations.com/notes/servercomm_remoting_amfphp.php I have the above file working well on a local test server. Flash 8, amfphp, mySQL. Then I try to make this file work on my hosted sever: http://www.thelargeglass.com/highscores2/index.html The file works when I do a Test Movie and play it locally. According to NetConnectionDebugger I'm connecting to my remote/online host and it's getting the data from tha db. I can even add and delete records. When I upload this file, it does not work. On my computer, it says "Waiting for localhost" down in the bottom web browser status window. ??? It should not be looking for any localhost? So, in conclusion, files works EVERYWHERE, except where I need to work. Any ideas? === I think I'm gonna like amfphp remoting a lot... I never got remoting to work with CFMX. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Re: [Flashcoders] OT: After Effects and Flash
You can do motion type stuff, but you are restricted more or less to the same types of tricks you'd use with Photoshop due to file size constraints. After Effects is pretty much just Photoshop with a timeline. For more elaborate effects, you will more than likely be better off creating video in After Effects to utilize in Flash as .FLV files.

Re: [Flashcoders] FAQ Adobe acquisition of Macromedia
Macromedia was a little more straight-up with their downloads though. The only thing I really like on the surface of this merger is the fact the Macromedia apps will get tabbed palettes back. Anyhow, as an example. I had a client over and he needed to open a PDF. I had a newly formatted laptop and said, sure, use this laptop, just download the PDF viewer. A couple of days later I use the laptop, and I had Yahoo! toolbar going on. I had some sort of Photoshop Starter Something I don't even know what going on. I'm sure he just went did whatever seemed like the default download, but unfortunately, I ended up with a bunch of stuff I did not want on my computer.

[Flashcoders] OT: Mac Mini as (L)AMP+CFMX dev server...
Just an FYI... A long time Mac user, I switched from doing my artwork (PShop, After Effects, 3d, etc) on Macs to using PC. I like OSX ok though, and got a Mac Mini, but I really don't use it for much, it's not fast enough to actually use to work on as a workstation. It replaced my dual G5. One day though, I started messing with it... and, well, Apache is built in. I installed mySQL and PHP. Then I installed the new ColdFusion 7.1 with the new Mac installer. I put yourSQL on it to admin the mySQL, and it's very nice. Works great. It's small, makes no noise and give off little heat. I'm about to shut down my made from scrap parts PIII500 computer that I have been using as a dev server. Just an idea for you developer types. Used and refurb Minis are out there. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Preloading locally
I would think for CD or Hard Drive, you could just stuff everything into the main movie, within reason of course. Then when the Flash movie is opened, all assets are loaded. If you have a lot of video, just load it from the CD or Hard Drive, there should be plenty of "bandwidth." The only real reason to load things as needed is bandwidth and loading concerns. I still try to do good designs, but part of me feels that if you have a 800x600 computer with 128MB of RAM... you are used to things not working.

Re: [Flashcoders] are the wheels off the Flash Player wagon?
Explore the latest generation BMW M5 -> -Flash 7 player is required to view this site. To download Flash 7, click here. This is AFTER it checked my player, so I should have went right to the microsite. At first, it was not obvious to me that I could proceed despite the "warning" and I moved on since I was not going to downgrade. I'm not complaining about Macromedia or the plug-in, just the state of affairs in general. Overall, the express player install to upgrade from 7 to 8 works pretty well. A little convoluted, going to Macromedia to confirm the update then popping back open a browser with the original destination, but it does seem to work pretty well.

Re: [Flashcoders] are the wheels off the Flash Player wagon?
I know that FP8 can do FP7, but the net effect is, websites are out there messing up viewer access/experiences over dodgy detection scripts. Actually, I kept messing with it and it let me continue past the warning, but it was far from obvious that I could do so.
