[Flashcoders] RE: Loop creator
I'm looking into building a loop manipulator application. I basically want to take 10 preset loops and place them on a time track. Each, loop can be placed before or after another loop. I then want to combine the entire track and export as an mp3, is this possible via ActionScript, or do I need another language to encode MP3's?

[Flashcoders] Re: Loop Creator ( Dynamic Sound )
Hi everyone, I'm working on a concept but not sure if it is possible in AS3 Flash Player 9. I have a client requesting - some feedback would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking into building a "loop creator" application. I basically want to take preset loops and place them on a time track. The loops will be able to layer above each other. I then want to combine the entire track and export as an mp3, is this possible via byteArrays? If so, could I encode the byteArray to MP3 or do I need to use php or something similar. I'm in the dark on this one. Could definitely use the help.

[Flashcoders] merging data problem
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?
var workData:Array = new Array();
//workData.push({pm:"Bob", resource:"Anthony", client:"Microsoft",
role:"Developer", job:"XXX-", totalHours:40});
workData.push({pm:"Dan", resource:"Anthony", client:"Microsoft",
role:"Developer", job:"XXX-", totalHours:50});
workData.push({pm:"Bob", resource:"Anthony", client:"Microsoft",
role:"Developer", job:"XXX-", totalHours:30});
workData.push({pm:"Dan", resource:"Anthony", client:"Microsoft",
role:"Developer", job:"XXX-", totalHours:50});
trace(workData);
// for each item in the array
for ( var i = workData.length - 1; i >= 0; i-- ){
// compare to all other array elements
for ( var j = workData.length - 1; j >= 0; j-- )
{
if ( workData[i].pm == workData[j].pm && i != j)
{
for ( var props in workData[i] )
{
workData[i][props] = workData[j][props];
}
trace("index: " + j
);
workData.splice(j, 1);
}
}
}
trace(workData);

[Flashcoders] Data merging problem
Hi All, I am dealing with a puzzle here, and I can't figure out the best way to approach this. I come to you all to see what your thoughts are. I will try my best to explain this, because I am confused, I can't guarantee it will at all make sense. I have an ArrayCollection, "workData" that has a list of employee work information. I want to merge two of the same data together. workData[0].pm = "Bob"; workData[0].resource = "Anthony" workData[0].client = "Microsoft" workData[0].role = "Developer" workData[0].job = "XXX-" workData[0].week_date = 7 workData[0].totalHours = 40 workData[1].pm = "Bob"; workData[1].resource = "Anthony" workData[1].client = "Microsoft" workData[1].role = "Developer" workData[1].job = "XXX-" workData[1].week_date = 14 workData[1].totalHours = 32 workData[2].pm = "Tom"; workData[2].resource = "Anthony" workData[2].client = "Microsoft" workData[2].role = "Developer" workData[2].job = "XXX-" workData[2].week_date = 14 workData[2].totalHours = 52 The ArrayCollection displayed here has two matching items, 1 and 2. I want to merge the two because everything matches except for the week_date and totalHours, which is fine, that will be my next problem to solve. I want to create a new ArrayCollection to have 1 and 3 show, while having 1 and 2 merged. What is best way of achieving this? I'm basically taking this data and displaying it into a datagrid, but I don't want the duplicated items to display on the datagrid. So, instead of 3 items to display, I want to display two. -- Anthony Cintron Flash || Flex Developer Blog - http://codegasm.blogspot.com/ Portfolio - http://www.sweetiesandgangsters.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
[Flashcoders] RE: Flash Math Conceptualizing
Hi All,
I have a little dilemma, I have a flash map that needs to be done, I can't
really get the idea on how to do the math. I have a small version of the
large map. I have to drag a box around the smaller version and use that as
my navigation for the bigger version. When I drag the small box around the
bigger version displays the area I dragged over from the smaller version.
They are both in separate movieClips with different x,y coordinates. This is
what I have worked out, but it seems totally hacked. I would like to create
a cleaner version, using a much better algorithm. Any good tutorials out
there on using the Geom Point class, the documentation is so vague. Help is
much needed, thanks.
var navViewPosX:Number = -44.8;
var navViewPosY:Number = -160.2;
var percent:Number = 6.5;
function animateView()
{
var map:MovieClip = this._parent.view.map_mc;
// target X,Y
var targetX:Number = this.btn._x;
var targetY:Number = this.btn._y;
// distance between navView and target position on x,y
var navViewDX:Number = navViewPosX - targetX;
var navViewDY:Number = navViewPosY - targetY;
map._x = navViewDX;
map._y = (navViewDY*percent);

Hi All, I'm trying to come up with an efficient concept of animating dynamic objects stacked upon each other. For example. Let's say I dynamically add an object (That would be Object 1). Then I wanted to add another object, I want object1 to move down one row, and the new object (object 2) to fade in. I now want to add a third object ( object 3 ). Object 1 and Object 2 move down a row. Now, I decided to delete Object 2. Object 3, now has to animate back up one row. Anyone know an effective way of executing this?

Re: [Flashcoders] Using States, MXML, Events, O' My
The custom class that has the button event is a composite class inside
another class (we'll call that MainInterActive class). MainInterActive is
than instantiated in a main mxml application inside a state node. I could
try what you mentioned but the composite classes' buttons are not really
available to the main application. Unless there is a way I could subscribe
to that button, although it is a child of the child class in
MainInterActive.
The reason why I'm not creating the buttons using mxml is because they are
doing some funky animations.
thanks for your help on this, any ideas for a resolution on accessing the
button or buttons event?

[Flashcoders] Using States, MXML, Events, O' My
I have a question about MXML and ActionScript and how they communicate with each other. I'm working with the State tage to change views. I have a Class called SpacePorter; it has 4 buttons that dispatchEvents( MyButton.BUTTON_CLICKED). Space Porter is instantiated into my Home Class. Home class is than created using mxml in my root Application. Now, I want to be able with AS3 or MXML to subscribe to that Broadcast so my State can change, depending on the button that was clicked. I can't quite wrap my head around this with my lack of MXML and ActionScript relations - especially with the CDATA tags. I tried getting the button object through AS, by doing: homeView.button, but it seems as though i can't get to the properties of an mxml (instantiated object) from a AS script inside the script tag. I hope this makes some sense, if need be I can explain some more. Could really use the help on this. This is great real world attempt of me using Flex.
