[Flashcoders] Inserting FLV Message events

2006-12-21 Thread Chris McFadyen aka Grayson Carlyle

[Flashcoders] AS3: Stage.scaleMode, Stage.stageWidth and Stage.stageHeight

[Flashcoders] Persisting Arrays of Objects with Local Shared Objects

2006-07-26 Thread Chris McFadyen aka Grayson Carlyle
The first thing to be aware of is circular object references, i.e. can you recursively trace the array without crashing Flash. So, linked lists are out of the question. The second is not to pass any object references (including methods) where the referred object might change before it is

[Flashcoders] Dynamic access of top-level variables in AS3

2006-07-10 Thread Chris McFadyen aka Grayson Carlyle
