Re: [Flashcoders] Mouseclick on disabled button....
I am not sure if slowdown happens when other areas are clicked, in fact this problem was reported by someone else and i just saw him clickng only the disabled buttons. Later,may be after a month of reporting, I could not reproduce the same problem and still trying.

Marc, computers are all same, but i am sure when the problem occured the player was either 6 or 7 is user's machine, and i have upgraded to 9. anyway, thanks for the hints, let me dig deeper ino it... regards, Arindam Marc Hoffman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It is typical that a movie that is highly taxing to the processor will slow down when rapid mouse motion or clicks are occurring. I would guess that the reason you can't replicate your user's experience is that your computer is more powerful or you've upgraded the Flash player.

Andy Herrman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've noticed delays in my application, but I'm not sure if they're the same as yours. The delays I've seen seem to stem from Flash's threading model (specifically, being single-threaded). Depending on the timing of the messages you're sending/receiving, especially if you have a lot of movies, sometimes the process one movie is doing will delay the handling/receipt of messages by another movie. That might not be relevant here, but it's possible.

Re: [Flashcoders] LocalConnection slow ...
Andy, U guessed it right, simaltaneous code processing do occur in this case. app1 --sends to - master swf --broadcasts to-- app2. |-- broadcasts to app3 When app1 sends out data, lot of codes get executed simaltaneously in app1, app2 and app3... Flash's threading model could be the explanation... thanks, Arindam Andy Herrman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've noticed delays in my application, but I'm not sure if they're the same as yours. The delays I've seen seem to stem from Flash's threading model (specifically, being single-threaded).

[Flashcoders] Mouseclick on disabled button....
hi, I have a movie loaded with many animations(not scripted). And there are few buttons on stage to control them.Now,when the buttons are disabled, continueously clicking on them makes the animations slower and sometimes jerky. Why is that happening? When button is disabled no code execution happens so, what consumes the CPU? its a fact that multiple processing makes flash animations slower, but never thought clicking disabled buttons would consume CPU and make animations slower.. Any explanation is highly appreciated.. thanks, Arindam - Real people. Real questions. Real answers.

Re: [Flashcoders] button symbol nested in a mc - scoping issue?
Every level will have its own root timeline. If u have a nested movie Clip mc2 a a particular level say level0, with a hierarchy as level0.mc.mc1.mc2 , the movieClip mc2 can address a variable at _level0 root timeline as _level0.variable or _root.variable,either way its okay. Now, the same movieclip mc2 will address a variable at _root of level2 as _level2.variable. So,_root is absolute for a particular level. If various nested movieClips at differnet levels need to inteact with each other then, 1) for the same level _root is the main timeline. 2) for different level, for eg. level 2,_level2 is the _root timeline of that level.

Re: [Flashcoders] createTextField and embedding fonts
Hi Thomas, ok, its coming a bit late though, but here is a solution for using shared font library.. 1) in SharedFonts.fla, have a shared font, let the linkage identifier be testfont and symbol name also the same.Export it for runtime sharing as done normally. 2) in receiving fla, import the shared font from the SharedFonts.swf.( only import from the specified URL, in this case SharedFonts.swf). The tricky part comes now, 3) create a movieClip symbol in receiving fla. library, create a dynamic textfield inside it at authoring time with font as testfont*, and give a dummy linkage(export for AS, export in first frame). now,try this code to test it, this.createTextField(myTf,this.getNextHighestDepth(),10,10,200,20); var tFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); tFormat.font =testfont; this.myTf.embedFonts =true; this.myTf.wordWrap = true; this.myTf.text =Testing the shared font; this.myTf.setTextFormat(tFormat); This works fine, and the idea of shared library holds good too, as u will see that changing any font property in SharedFonts.fla/swf gets reflected in receiving.swf. Mind it, the trick is step 3 :-) regards, Arindam [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think you might be right here Arindam. Perhaps in the receiving file I merely need to do an import for runtime sharing instead of exporting it in the shared fonts swf.

Once the font symbol from SharedFonts.fla is in your other .fla's library right click on it (in your other .fla's library) and go to properties. Check the Export for ActionScript, Export for runtime sharing and Export in first frame checkboxes. Supply the location to SharedFonts.swf (e.g. SharedFonts.swf or somepath/SharedFonts.swf) in the URL field below the checkboxes. the receiving file, in shared library concept, usually imports for runtime sharing the object from the URL specified, but in the above line there is no import happening, in fact, both the SharedFonts.fla and receiving file are exporting for runtime sharing.

Re: [Flashcoders] attachMovie fails with runtime shared asset
Hi, There is a workaround for this, where u dont have to drop an instance of runtimeShared on the stage first.I assume runtimeShared is the identifier of the shared asset which u import from another swf for runtime sharing. 1. Create a new blank symbol in the library, where u have the imported symbol,give a linkage indentifier to it with export for AS and Export in first frame selected. 2. Place the imported symbol runtimeShared inside the blank symbol. Now, try ur line ,_root.attachMovie(runtimeShared,runtimeShared,1); This works fine when u are importing graphical objects. regards, Arindam Mendelsohn, Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi list...

Re: [Flashcoders] to apply the property to the all the dynamic text boxes in my file.
I guess you are using Dynamic Textfields,which you placed during authoring, and like movieclips , need to have instance names by which they will be referred to during runtime.To assign some property to a textfield you need identify the textfield by its instance name. for eg. you have three textfields with instance names tf1,tf2 and tf3 at _root. You can set their autosize property to a value by, for( var i=1;i4;i++) { _root[t+i].text =sometext; _root[t+i].autoSize=true; } If any textfield has a linked variable, that variable can be updated anytime after the autoSize property has been set to true. Note:- the instance name cannot be same as a linked variable name of a textfield.If it is, autoSize will simply not work. Hope it helps.. - Arindam Dhar Walkoli, Nilesh (Cognizant) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi , Please anyone help me to apply the property to the all the dynamic text boxes in my file.
