Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 accessing functions from other classes
Hi Jason thanks for your help! Ive added what you said but the event listeners
do not seam to to be hearing the dispatched event.
main_site is the document class for main_site.fla, and is loaded into
'gallery.swf' using this code...
// CODE from within FUNCTION
var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var swfURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(filename);
swfLoader.load (swfURL);
swfLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
swfLoadComplete);
// CODE from within 'swfLoadComplete' FUNCTION
addChild(ev.target.content);
var loader:LoaderInfo = LoaderInfo(ev.target);
loader.content.x = 0;
loader.content.y = 0;
ive tried adding these but they do not work
loader.content.name = main_site;
...and...
loader.content.instanceName = main_site;
The EventDispatcher is imported (the whole import flash.events.*; are imported).
Thanks
SJM

Is main_site the name of the instance? It doesn't seem like it if you
are getting that error. Does it also import EventDispatcher or at
least, extend it? Depending on where the code sits, you could do:
this.addEventListener instead of main_site - main_site should be an
instance name - you cannot listen to events from non-instances.

I think you're calling these methods on the Class main_site.
Try this:
var main_site_instance:main_site = new main_site();
main_site_instance.addEventListener(bk2globe, bk2globeListener);
But, if you are having trouble with this, grab a copy of actionscript 3.0
essentials http://www.amazon.com/Essential-ActionScript-3-0/dp/0596526946.
Here is a short article that might help you:

stream.bufferTime = 1;
stream.receiveVideo(true);
stream.client = this;
flashVideo.visible = false;
stream.play(myvideo.flv); // start downloading
}
public function onMetaData(infoObject:Object):void
{
if(infoObject.duration != null)

Hi, SJM,
Hypothesis: Don't know if this is different for AS3 (couldn't find the
appropriate documentation in a quick search) but I got into the habit of
avoiding assigning values for declared variables in the class body unless
they are static variables. My recommendation would be declare variables like
your arrays in the class body:
public var containerX:Number;
And then initialize them in your mainClass() function
containerX = (stage.stageWidth / 5);
Otherwise you may get unpredictable results based on what's in memory at the
time.

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 - Problem with first item in Array
Hey Cor
This is a continuation from the thing you were looking on Sunday for me! I took
your advice and re-wrote most of the code!
You will notice first time round it will trace all the correct info (5 image
URLs) for the array but when you get to...
trace(LOAD COMPLETE - +ev.target.content.name);
It will only trace out 4 objects!

I have 5 MC buttons on the main stage within each of the MCs is 4layers; layer

3 - stop(); action and over/out labels

works fine but for some reason instead of stopping at the selected frame it
disappears. The image loading file seams to work fine so here is my main AS

You override your mcName 5 times, so only the last instance remains in
focus.
I guess, without knowing the rest of your application, in the function
addOverOut add these lines as first lines:
Var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();

No not quite! I want the width of the MC to increase revealing more of the

[Flashcoders] AS3 - Displaying images from a directory
Hi Guys Is it possible to display a number of images in flash from a directory without the need for XML? SJM ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Great thanks for the advice! This should work a treat!

Eg: image1.jpg,image2.jpg,image3.jpg, etc This way you just keep loading the images until the first one that fails.

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 - Displaying images from a directory
My problem is the flash file is going to be embeded into a templete page to be added to a CMS unfortunatly there is no option for me to use any additional XML, PHP, ASP, Pearl script etc... the way i thought it would work is the path to the images would be a flash var! SJM - Original Message - From: Rich Shupe To: FlashCoders Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2008 1:32 PM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 - Displaying images from a directory Flash can't retrieve the contents from a directory on its own. You don't have to use XML, but you need something similar. PHP, for example, can provide the contents of a directory in name-value pairs or straight text if you want to avoid XML.

[Flashcoders] Really need your help guys! AS3
Hi Guys as you know im fairly new to AS3 and im having a massive problem with some code ive been writing, unfortunately there is loads of it so ive had to create a couple of examples of what i want, as i can get them to work separately but not together! 1 - Click the link - http://flashdev.dnsalias.org:8080/example1/default.asp 2 - Then click on the 'Jungle' styled image 3 - Move your mouse (Text gets selected) 4 - Click on the 'Photo Tools' tab 5 - Click the 'upload photo' button 6 - Select a 15-20k image (This is a fake upload so dont worry what it is), hit OK Now here is where it goes wrong 7 - choose to edit the photo (i.e. size, position rotation etc...) What should happen now is when you edit the photo it should action it on the small image (if you increse the size, the image should change), however it for some reason re-focuses the text box. (To retry the script please start from section 1 and refresh/clear cache) To see a working version of sections 4-7 click here... Click the link - http://flashdev.dnsalias.org:8080/example2/default.asp then work through sections 1-7 --- The problem... Soon as a textbox is clicked in or focused on for some reason this is kept in memory. What i want to happen... When the flash application loads i want the text box to be selected and ready to type in, when you then upload an image you are already able to edit the image without having to click the image So my question to you guys... Is it possible to stop the textbox being re-focused? as stage.focus = null; does not seam to work in this instance!

Re: [Flashcoders] Conversion SWF - PDF/EPS
We have been working on a similar type of projects, there are a few options! The best one i found was www.alivepdf.org but if its not what your looking for (as it wasnt for us) try looking for a PHP / ASP version. In the end due to server technology we used ABCPDF its an asp/.net pdf creator and works great for what we need! Cheers SJM - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2008 10:13 AM Subject: [Flashcoders] Conversion SWF - PDF/EPS Hello everybody, I'm looking for a any solution (really anything) to convert SWF files to another vector format used in print (EPS or PDF) or even generate this format on the fly using AS3/PHP/whatever... Here is a summary of the problem : I have an application in which the user can add text or pre-defined shapes (MovieClips) and then scale, rotate, move them... As a final step I need to generate a vector file (PDF or EPS) to be sent to the print factory. The pre-defined shapes are provided to me as vector PDF files, so I imported them in the Flash IDE then re-export them as SWF in order to be dynamically loaded in the app. I already take a look at AlivePDF, but he can't generate vector PDF from a DisplayObject... I'm also thinking that I can generate a XML file describing the transformations applied to the shapes to later post-process everything with originals PDF but I can't even find a solution in this way. And it doesn't solve my problem in the case the user added text with a specific font and then distord it to fit his needs. So, if someone has a clue or a trick (even if it needs a manual intervention) to get me out of this mess, it would be great.

[Flashcoders] AS3 - A simple questions
Hi Guys a simple questions for you
Basically I want to produce similar code that creates 3 TextFields and when
clicked (or focused) they need to say Hi I'm TextField [num], I would like to
avoid putting the TextFields in MovieClips if possible.
//
// Creates 3 new MovieClips and adds a custom property itm
//
for (var i:Number = 0; i 3; i++)
{
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
mc.graphics.beginFill(0xFF);
mc.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 100, 80);
mc.graphics.endFill();
mc.x = 80*i;
mc.y = 60*i;
mc.itm = i;
addChild(mc);
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, itemClicked);
}
//
// Called when clicked, traces the custom property
//
function itemClicked(ev:Event):void
{
trace(Hi I'm MovieClip + int(ev.target.itm + 1));
}
Thanks

[Flashcoders] Cross domain AS3
Hi Guys My question; Is it possible in an XML file, to have an absolute link to an image ie. /banner/flash/uploadedimage/45/sunset.jpg. I need the url to be capable of being absolute and to contain the domain e.g. http://www.mydomain.co.uk/banner/flash/uploadedimage/45/sunset.jpg I currently have it set up but the image does not show. It only shows if the url is relative ie. uploadedimage/45/sunset.jpg SJM ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
[Flashcoders] AS3 - Dynamic Variable?
Another one for you...
I am having some trouble with dynamic variables, basically I expect
this['xmlClass.xmlData.RecImageW' + 1] to mean xmlClass.xmlData.RecImageW1, but
it seems it does not?
// VALUES
xmlClass.xmlData.RecImageW1 = 120;
xmlClass.xmlData.RecImageW2 = 1220;
xmlClass.xmlData.RecImageW3 = 3;
xmlClass.xmlData.RecImageW4 = 23;
xmlClass.xmlData.RecImageW5 = 222;
for (var i = 1; i = 5; i++)
{
trace( this['xmlClass.xmlData.RecImageW' + i] );
}
// OUTPUT SHOULD BE
120
1220
3
23
222
xmlData is type XML in the class xmlClass, it is set as public and tracing
xmlClass.xmlData.RecImageW1 works so I know I can access the value, I just need
a method that will loop through all of the variables and trace them.

Apologies, it is.
You need to add listeners for all the events that FileReference dispatches.
At a minimum you need to listen for the select event to begin uploading:
file.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, selectHandler);
Here is a link to the Flex 2 langref with an example that adds all the
listeners - check the Flash one if you are using CS3, but the class
should be the same, so you may be okay.

public function uploadImage( ev:MouseEvent ):void
{
uploadURL = new URLRequest();
uploadURL.url = _mainClass._imgUploadURL;
file = new FileReference();
file.browse(getTypes());
trace(uploadImage: + ev);
}
The above trace outouts this...
uploadImage: [MouseEvent type=click bubbles=true cancelable=false
eventPhase=3 localX=16 localY=4 stageX=95.65 stageY=236.72
relatedObject=null ctrlKey=false altKey=false shiftKey=false delta=0]]
As far as i can tell it does not go any further into the code below!
private function getTypes():Array {
var allTypes:Array = new Array(getImageTypeFilter());
return allTypes;
}
private function getImageTypeFilter():FileFilter {
return new FileFilter(Images (*.jpg, *.jpeg),
*.jpg;*.jpeg;);
}
private function cancelHandler(ev:Event):void {
trace(cancelHandler: + ev);

Re: [Flashcoders] Why do you compile with the Flash IDE?
The reason i am yet to move to Flex is because as it stands i don't have the time to start learning/using a new prog! Ive been using flash since version 4 so know the program quite well! Once ive had time to play with Flex i may well swap to using it!

Ive read a load of sites that reference that way of doing it, however id does not seam to work in AS3. Further down the page the guy who writes the blog it is says this... Tink Says: January 2nd, 2007 at 1:39 am Flash doesn't understand any meta tags. There is no need to use this method in Flash as you can embed the font in the IDE. Granted it would be nice if Flash did understand the embed tag though. Gianluca Says: January 6th, 2007 at 11:21 pm So how to embed font in Flash as3? Tink Says: January 7th, 2007 at 4:52 pm Same as AS 2.0. Either have the font in your library or create a TextField on the stage and embed the characters you want.

[Flashcoders] [AS3] Problem with For loop
This function should loop through 5 times creating 5 different MovieClips, each
one with a mouse click event attached, which should trace the value of i
either 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. So the first movieclip should output 1, second should
output 2 and so on...
for (var i = 0; i itemList.length(); i++) // itemList.length() is equal
to 5
{
_summaryElement[i] = loadLibrary(itemContainer); // Loads MovieClip from
library
trace(i); // Outputs correctly 1... 2... 3... 4... 5...
var summaryClick = function (ev:Event)
{

???
}
addChild(_summaryElement[i]); // Adds MovieClip to stage
_summaryElement[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, summaryClick); //

Re: [Flashcoders] [AS3] Problem with For loop
Yay that works great i have a slight other problem tho with the same script...
This code should load a MovieClip from the library 5 times, place each on the
stage and then load a different image into each one, instead it loads the 5
MovieClips from the library, places them on the stage and then only loads the
image into the last (5th) MovieClip
this code will not run as its stripped
var itemList:XMLList = locationInfo.item;
for (var i = 0; i itemList.length(); i++) // Loops through 5 times
{
_summaryElement[i] = loadLibrary(summaryContainer); // Load our MovieClip
from the library
loadImage(images/ + i + .jpg, _summaryElement[i].sumImg); // Should
load image into _summaryElement[i].sumImg which is a blank placeholder movieclip
}
function loadImage(filename:String, mcName:MovieClip):void
{
_mcName = mcName; // Contains MovieClip object (object 1 through 5)
var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var imageURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(filename);
imageLoader.load (imageURL);
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,

Glen, no i do not want to shrink the image i just want to maintain the original valuesthen calculate the increas/decreas info (ie original W 100, H 80 + [1 click] = W 110, H 90) so i can use Pythagoras in asp to do its job as you mentioned!! ... I am guessing you are trying to store your original unrotated width and height of the image for later?... Yes i am, I am also tring to multiply the value at the sametime so i can output W2 H2 ... From your diagram - I think you have X2 and X on the wrong axis - but using your variables and assuming 0, 0 is at the bottom left hand corner... 0,0 is the XY point (top right of actual photo), X2 does not exist and i can not get the information, if i could then it would be great!

[Flashcoders] (AS3) Object to an Array
Hi Guys
Im in need of finding out how or even if its possible to convert an object to
an array?
Basically I am trying to output some vars from flash to an PHP script, yet when
PHP recieves the $_POST['textVars'] as [object Object] which is a string and
not an array so I can't access it with $_POST['textVars'][0]['x'], which should
output the value of textBox1.x.
var textVars:Object = new Object;
textVars[0] = {
x :textBox1.x,
y :textBox1.y,
width :textBox1.width,
height :textBox1.height,
rotation :textBox1.rotation
};
textVars[1] = {
x :textBox2.x,
y :textBox2.y,
width :textBox2.width,
height :textBox2.height,
rotation :textBox2.rotation
};
sendVars.textVars = textVars;
sendRequest.data = setVars;
sendRequest.url = process.php;
sendRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
sendToURL(sendRequest);
Thanks

Re: [Flashcoders] (AS3) Object to an Array
Hey Glen thanks for your speedy response its much appriciated! Ive tried the
code you provided but am still getting the same output.
var textVars = new Array();
textVars[0] = {
a :0,
b :1,
c :2
};
textVars[1] = {
d :3,
e :4,
f :5
};
var numVars:int = textVars.length;
for(var i:int = 0;i numVars;i++)
{
var obj:Object = textVars[i];
for (var itm:String in obj)
{
trace(itm + = + obj[itm]);
textVars[i][itm] = obj[itm];
}
}
var sendRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(process.php);
var setVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
setVars.textVars = textVars;
sendRequest.data = setVars;
sendRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
sendToURL(sendRequest);
Basically we are trying to output a $_POST array that is formated similar to
below...
Array
(
[textVars] = Array
(
[0] = Array
(
[a] = 0
[b] = 1
[c] = 2
)
[1] = Array
(
[d] = 3
[e] = 4
[f] = 5
)
)
)
instead we are getting:
Array
(
[textVars] = [object Object]
)
Thanks

Hi,
You could create a loop to look through each object and then make up
your arrays a bit like this - untested:
sendVars.textVars = new Array();
var numVars:int = textVars.length;
for(var i:int = 0;i numVars;i++) {
var obj:Object = textVars[i];
for(item:String in obj) {
trace(itm + = + obj[itm]);
sendVars.textVars[i][itm] = obj[itm];
}
}
//then send your data...
SWXFormat handles this sort of thing quite nicely, but they were
still working on AS3 when I last looked.

Do you know the rotation?
2 ways to do this:
Either rotate the image back to 0 if it can be done - if you do this you
will need to call validateNow() on the instance after changing values,
read the new w2, etc. then rotate it back...
Or do some pythagoras
w2 is the hypotenuse of one triangle.
h2 is the hyp of another...
You can work the rest out :)
