RE: [Flashcoders] How to simulate Osiloscope
Well depends on how much of the oscilloscope's functionality you want to reproduce. What signal are you going to simulate. I would imagine that all you are going to do is show a Sine wave and switch time bases. In this case all you have to do is graph a sine wave on your screen and change the frequency of the graph each time you switch time bases. Y = sin(F*Thea) if you also want to change amplitude then y = A*Sin(F*Thea) that should get you going in the right direction. The rest would simply be a good drawing of an oscilloscope to make the thing look convincing. -Original Message- From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [mailto:flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of nasim h Sent: Wednesday, August 10, 2011 1:24 AM To: Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: [Flashcoders] How to simulate Osiloscope Hi My project is to simulate Osiloscope , by flash I dont know how to start I am familier with drawing api , Is there any site or book that learn how to simulate thing or How can I start simulation by flash helllp plz ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

It would seem to me that you are drawing the two waves with some kind of sine function.

If you need it for general distribution, you can package it as an app using Flash CS5 or AIR 2.6 (gets you a newer faster runtime), then point site visitors to the app location. All individual swfs will need to be merged into one giant swf. If you need to demo something on the iPad, you can use iSwifter: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/iswifter/id388857173?mt=8 ATM, those are the only two options (well, you could rewrite the whole thing for haXe too) - eventually you may be able to use something like Jangaroo to compile an AS3 based app to HTML5/Canvas (canvas is too slow on iOS ATM), or if Adobe expands it out, use Wallaby (http://labs.adobe.com) to export to HTML5 from Flash (or maybe a combo of the two at some point).

If I only addChild(mc1) then it appears at 0,0 at the size 100,100; if I only addChild(mc2) then it appears at 150,0 at the size of 200,200 but if add them both then only the second one appears. what is going on here??? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

RE: [Flashcoders] How to access MovieClip declared in one function in an event listener
Well my basic understanding of programming goes something like this.
We call functions to do certain things when we need them to do it, so:
Basic flowchart of program.
LoadExternalData - This data will be loaded into movieclips to be place on
the stage at a later time.
DrawTheMainScreen - These are the items on the stage that stay all the time.
DrawNavigationButtons - These buttons will load the different things on the
screen that change. This is where the EventListeners for the buttons are
defined.
FirstButtonClickedListener - Calls ClearscreenFunction, which clears
the screen of all previous things on the stage that are not to stay all the
time
Then Draw the stage for this Menu Item.
SecondButtonClickedListenr - Cals ClearscreenFunction.
Then Draws the stage for this MenuItem. This screen is a
input form which has a button on it to do something with the information
entered. Declares Listener for this button.
ButtonListener is called and now we can't access any of the
information on the form.
So in my opinion it would be better if you could declare the Listener as
follows:
myButton.addListener(Event,ParamatersToPass,FunctionsToCall); With the
parameter list to be optional if not needed.
Then declare the Function accordingly.
The example of trace((event.currentTarget).TextField.text);
Here event.currentTarget is the button itself which of course does not have
any textfields associated with it.
Another example was to write two function one that calls is the
eventListener and then have the eventListener call another eventListener
where you are passing What Text where are you getting the value of What
Text? If I could get the value of What Text in this function I wouldn't
need the other function so I am a bit confused as to how that will solve
anything. The only example that seems to work is to make the movieClip a
global variable, which seems to me to violate everything I have ever been
taught about programming. Which is to say that one should use global
variables as sparingly as possible. I have written thousands of lines of
code in my 30+ years as a programmer and probably only used global variables
once or twice before OOPs programming became the rage.

There is more than one way to skin a cat - crazy expression but you can do
what you want a number of ways in AS3.
I guess knowing that you only want to add that movieClip from within the
function would change things in the sample I sent.
Here's another basic version (not knowing what you are doing with the code
or movieClips) ...
function DrawMyStuffOnScreen():void{
var myMovieClip:MovieClip = new DefinedMovieClip();
myMovieClip.TextField.text = SomeText;
myMovieClip.addEventListener(What text, showWhatText);
var myButton:SimpleButton = new DefinedButton();
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,DoSomething);
addChild(myMovieClip);
addChild(myButton);
}
function DoSomething(e:MouseEvent):void{
/* This is called from the button which will
dispatch a new event that your movie clip is listening for */
dispatchEvent(new Event(what text));
}
function showWhatText(e:Event):void{
/* This event fires when the event What text happened */
trace(e.target.TextField.text);
}
1.) Why are you declaring your MovieClip within the function?
2.) Does that movieClip and button have to be added to the stage at a
certain time?
3.) Is all of this code on the timeline?

RE: [Flashcoders] problem with adding two digits
It has to do with the fact that computers have to convert all numbers to binary then perform math on those numbers and then convert back to decimal. In the process of this conversion you get results like these. If you need the addition to be accurate and you know that the numbers will always be decimals you can multiply the numbers by 100 and then you will add 27 + 3 which will return 30 and then divide it by 100 to get your .3 (or at least I think that will work as I have not tried it) -Original Message- From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [mailto:flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of Adrian Zajac Sent: Tuesday, December 14, 2010 8:43 AM To: Flash Coders List Subject: [Flashcoders] problem with adding two digits Hello, First of all, I want to say Hi to everyone here.

I am leaving the office so I can't work out the problem for you, but basically pick a point on the map and call it 0,0 and then the lat and long of that same point will represent 0,0 and all you have to do is subtract or add the lat and long of the point on the map from the coordinates of what you are calling 0,0. -Original Message- From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [mailto:flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of Lehr, Theodore Sent: Friday, September 10, 2010 10:37 AM To: Flash Coders List Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Math help Hhmmm I do not think this is working - here is my issue - maybe someone has an idea.

Then all you have to do is some simple proportional math. Get the length of each line by subtracting the start point from the end point (i.e. for line b, 124.4 - 66.92). Divide the point you have on B (80.6) from the length of B to get the percentage that point is along line B. Use that number as a proportion to figure the same point on line A. To do that, multiply that proportion number you got from line B by the length of line A. That will give you equivalent proportion on line A. Add that proportion number to the start point of line A (in this case, the start point of A is 0, so doesn't matter) to get the actual point on line A.

Only the problem I am currently experiencing is the putting the sprites nicely on the line of the circle. It's some rotation related thing but I don't get it. The basic idea is to have an earth and then all kind of items such as buildings to be positioned on the line/circumference of the circle and then follow the form of the circle. I only don't get it. I know I can get the x,y position for these (building) sprites the following way: var radius: Number = 50; var angle: Number = 60; var x: Number = Math.sin(Math.PI/180 * angle) * radius; var y: Number = Math.cos(Math.PI/180 * angle) * radius; Now I only have the problem to nicely rotate the sprite in such manner is basically following the form of the circle. I have made a drawing of how the sprites and/or buildings (every rectangle is a sprite) should be placed on the circle [1] but I don't know how i get that nice rotation calculated.

With only 10 numbers in the array it would check very fast so you wouldn't

Hi all!
What I am trying to figure out is this:
How to generate a sequence of random numbers where the newest is always
different from all the previous?
I need to continuosly rewrite an array of 10 random numbers in such a way
that at any given time they are all different.
Let's say that my range is 0 to 100
it starts with random numbers, all different:
{3, 34, 12, 69, 6, 44, 31, 90, 88, 23}
at a set interval some values are replaced by new ones so there are never
two equal numbers, so, after 2 seconds it may look like this:
{3, 66, 12, 79, 6, 44, 10, 81, 88, 23}
Any ideas?
Thanks :)

RE: [Flashcoders] barcode
It all depends on what is the code for the barcode, There are many types. You can check out IDAutomation not sure of the website but they sell a bunch of different barcode type fonts. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Merrill, Jason Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2008 11:37 AM To: Flash Coders List Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] barcode If I want to make a mc that is a bar code - is it a simple matter of getting a bar code font? Yep - should be. Or you could draw your own vertical boxes using the patterns outlined here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Product_Code) to create the bit pattern, if it's a UPC bar code.

Subject: [Flashcoders] urgent angle problem
hi guys
i have a problem that i need to sort out - i have a script that
checks to see where the mouse pointer is in relation to a point of
origin and then selects which frame from a group of 9 to show
the problem i'm having is that if the angle is above 180 degrees, it
swaps to negative numbers back down to 0 (go to http://www.
19.5degs.com/element/215.php to see an example - in particular watch
the text frame as you move) and i need to figure out how to make it a
full 360
i've tried
if (angle0) {
angle = (-1*angle)+180;
}
but that's not right
here is my code
//image frame selector
function changeFrame(clip:MovieClip, angle:Number):Void {
// frame is receiving a wrong number above 180 degrees here
// there are 9 frames so i want each frame to have 40 degrees (hence
angle/40)
var frame:Number = Math.round(angle/40);
// visibleClip is a variable set on all clips (set in the mousemove
below) to tell my script which clip is visible to make it invisible
without having to loop through the other clips when there's a change
clip[clip.visibleClip]._visible = false;
clip[p+frame]._visible = true;
clip.visibleClip = [p+frame];
}
//mouse follower
var mouseListener:Object = new Object();
mouseListener.lookAt = function(clip:MovieClip, originX:Number,
originY:Number, watchX:Number, watchY:Number):Void {
var adjside:Number = watchX - originX;
var oppside:Number = -1*(watchY - originY);
var angle:Number = Math.atan2(oppside, adjside); // in radians
var angle:Number = Math.round(angle/Math.PI*180); // convert to
degrees
var angle:Number = -1*(angle); // invert
changeFrame(clip, angle);
}
mouseListener.onMouseMove = function () {
var watchX:Number = _xmouse;
var watchY:Number = _ymouse;
// there are 8 images that are trying to do this
for (var i:Number=1; i9; i++) {
var thisPerson:MovieClip = content_mc[person+i];
this.lookAt(thisPerson, thisPerson._x, thisPerson._y,
_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse);
}
};
Mouse.addListener(mouseListener);
hope you can help

RE: [Flashcoders] least to greatest
I am not sure if there is a sort method for arrays such as
Array.Sort(direction) if such a function does not exists then you can always
write a quick bubble sort function.
function bubblesort(ArrayName){
changesmade = true;
for(y = 0; y ArrayName.Length; y++{
if(changesmade){
changesmade = false;
for(x = 0; x ArrayName.Length-1; x++){
if(ArrayName[x] ArrayName[x+1]){
temp = ArrayName[x];
ArrayName[x] = ArrayName[x+1];
ArrayName[x+1] = temp;
Changesmade = true;
}
}
}
}
Return ArrayName;
}
If you want to sort in accending order or descending order as well the if
statement just needs to have the less than sign changed to a greater than
sign. There are ways of speeding this function up you can put in a variable
that checks to see if you made any changes to the array with each pass
If no changes were made then array is sorted. But I might not bother with
this step for only 10 variables.

Hey all I have a list of 10 numbers that I need to push into and array from

[Flashcoders] Adding Buttons Dynamically
I would like to be able to add 1 to 18 buttons to the stage dynamically.
Then buttons need to have dynamic text. So the idea would be that there
would be one generic blank button with dynamic text.
So basically,
If(Room[x] != undefined){
Createnewbutton; //not sure of exact code required here
AddDynamicTextToButton;
PositionNewButton;
AddEvenHandlertoNewButton;
}
How does one go about this??

[Flashcoders] Animated Button Problem
Hello, I am trying to make an animated button. This is what I have so far. I have a blank button graphic, a blank movie clip for the animation, and a downstate blank button. I make a new symbol (button) In the Up frame I have the blank button graphic and then I put a text box on it and put in the text of the button, In the Over Frame, I remove the blank button graphic and put in the movie clip making sure the text is on top In the Down Frame, I remove the movie clip and put in the downstate blank button making sure the text is on top In the Hit frame I draw a large rectangle that covers the whole button. Then when I try the button the mouse has to be on the part of the button which does not contain the text box to work. Obviously I want the button to work no matter where on the button the mouse is hovering.

RE: [Flashcoders] Scaling Up an Image in Proportion to width or height
Yes but you could do it like this You resize the _width: _width = Math.max(newWidth, 500); You set _height to the _width * ratio: _height = _width * (1/ratio); Which is the same thing as _height = _width / ratio; This would be (_width/_height * _height) this cancels the _height leaving you with just _width. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hershell Bryant Sent: Thursday, March 29, 2007 1:58 PM To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Scaling Up an Image in Proportion to width or height That'd do it...except that you need to define var ratio:Number = _height/_width.

RE: [Flashcoders] How to run an external exe file
No it does not need to be an exe file. I tried loading the swf file as well and loads ok, except that the second swf file needs to look at a folder and load a bunch of jpg, and other data. I have looked at the data being loaded and it is all there, however the pictures do not load that data does not put into the dynamic text fields.

RE: [Flashcoders] trig? calculus? put me out my misery
If I understand this correctly the movie clip will point in some direction and when it is clicked the clip moves off in that direction. If this is correct there are several ways to handle this. First I will assume you want the clip to move off in a straight line, curves can be done as well but require a bit more calculations. The easiest way is to pick several off screen points that the clip will move to. Say the clip can point in 8 different directions then select the end points of each of those directions and use the following formula to calculate intermediate points _y - yendpoint = (_ystartpoint - _yendpoint)/(_xstartpoint - _xendpoint)(_x - _xendpoint) Where you simply loop through a for loop that starts at _xstartpoint and ends at _xendpoint. If I knew what you were using to rotate the clip I could suggest alternate methods that would use the current position of the clip to calculate the motion in question. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kurt Dommermuth Sent: Monday, March 12, 2007 1:30 PM To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: [Flashcoders] trig? calculus? put me out my misery Hi all, I have what I initially thought was simple problem, but I've been racking my brains, searching the web and I just don't get it.

RE: [Flashcoders] Adding Dynamic Text to Scroll Pane
Hello,
Thank you for the warm welcome, I am glad to be here.
The problem unfortunately still exists. Here is the code I now have.
Data = new LoadVars();
Data.load(/listing.txt);
Data.onLoad = function (success)
{
if (success)
{
ListingTextMC.Listing_Text = Data.Listings;
MyListingScroll.contentPath = ListingTextMC;
MyListingScroll.Refresh();
}
}
ListingTextMC is a movie clip and all that is in it is a dynamic textbox
with the name Listing_Text
And there is no content in the scroll pane. I added a dynamic text box to
the same frame as the scrollpane and I can put the value of Data.Listing
into it so I know that I am reading the file correctly.
What I am I doing wrong here??
__
Hello Steve and welcome to flashcoders,
the proper way to set content for a ScrollPane is as follow :
MyScrollPane.contentPath = myContent;
where myContent is a MC in your library with a linkage ID myContent
So what you should do is create a MovieClip with your dynamic text in it and
export it for ActionScript with linkage ID myContent
Look up the ScrollPane methods in Flash help as well for other tips.
Hope this helps
Alain
