Re: [Flashcoders] 1 pixel border issue (not quite an AS issue, slightly OT)

2006-02-08 Thread DP
I've read in my Flash Hacks book that moving the registration point  
can fix this.

Move it into the top left quadrant, so that the x,y values are negative.

Nevermind, flashcoders.  The solution seems to be to just make a shape
and use a bitmap fill with a 1 pixel stroke.

[Flashcoders] Right-Click Pauses Movie

2005-10-31 Thread DP

Hey Gang!

I've got a time dependent Flash file. When the user right-clicks on  
the movie, the movie pauses.
I do understand it is possible to disable the menu, however , does  
anyone know if it is possible for the Flash movie not to pause when  
a right-click is registered?

Thanks!

[Flashcoders] Right-Click Pauses Movie

2005-10-31 Thread DP



Hey Gang!
I've got a time dependent Flash file. When the user right-clicks on  
the movie, the movie pauses.
Just to clarify, I do not want to uncheck the play item, I want to  
ensure that the flash movie keeps playing when a right-click is  
registered.
I do understand it is possible to disable the menu, however , does  
anyone know if it is possible for the Flash movie not to pause?

Thanks!

John,

I really feel like an idiot, but this is not the first time.
Thank you for you instructions and patience, and your reply.
I also can't cook rice to save my life!

You just did so here... you can check it in the archive too:
http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/pipermail/flashcoders/2005-October/ 
thread.html


First post was Looping Loaded Sound, which you actually sent as a  
reply to a message in a Flash in Firefox in conversation, which  
in turn had hijacked a thread titled tracking inactivity.


Then there was a thread you tried to start titled simply ming,  
but this was hidden within a discussion about cancelling a loading  
process.


A later request on right-clicking was shoved into a Flash vs Flex  
discussion, which many people may have deleted as a group.


The cause of all this was hitting Reply in your emailer and  
changing the title -- this doesn't change the instructions in the  
email header, and so you get lost in the archives, and don't get  
seen by those of us who use a threaded email reader.


Just hit New for a new message, paste in the address, and you'll  
get better visibility. Use a good thread title (like the one you  
have above), and clearly ask something that others can answer, and  
you'll usually get good results on mailing lists!  :)



... but in this latest case, I haven't tested for ways to keep  
rendering during a held right-click, and so don't have a good way  
to reply to the other thread, sorry.

Re: [Flashcoders] Making a function var global

2005-10-31 Thread DP

Hey man.

You could create a variable outside of the function, declare it to be  
global, and then assign it like you have below.

do I get this to be seen globally?

[Flashcoders] Looping Loaded Sound

Hey Gang!

Has anyone had trouble getting dynamically loaded MP3s to loop?
I'm having a bit of trouble with this. Can Flash do this?
What's the deal, 'yo?

[Flashcoders] ming

2005-10-26 Thread DP

Hey!

Has anyone used ming before?
I want to make some buttons with graphics as their visual component,  
as opposed to a shape.

I basically want to do this:

$buttonSprite = new SWFSprite();
$buttonSprite-add(fopen(images/pauseButton.gif, rb));

$pauseButton = new SWFButton();
$pauseButton-addShape(buttonSprite, $hit | SWFBUTTON_DOWN |  
SWFBUTTON_OVER | SWFBUTTON_UP);


I'm pretty dumb and I don't know why this doesn't work.
Any ideas?

Hi All,



i have the following problem. I want to load a sequence of Images.  
I have my

own SequenceLoader so that is fine.

Now i need to now the size (totalBytes) of all clips in advance to  
show a

progress bar that counts all clips.

So my first guess is to load one clip wait fort he first progress -  
get the

bytesTotal - and than cancel the loading. With this i would get the

Sizes of all clips without loading them. Now i always thought it`s not
possible to cancel a loading progress but to my surprise the  
following seems

to work:



this.createEmptyMovieClip(image_mc, this.getNextHighestDepth());

var mclListener:Object = new Object();

mclListener.onLoadProgress  = function(target:MovieClip,  
bytesLoaded:Number,

bytesTotal:Number){

var progress:Object = mcLoader.getProgress(image_mc);

trace( bytesTotal:  + bytesTotal);

size_tx.text=bytesTotal;

   image_mcl.unloadClip(target);



};

var image_mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();

image_mcl.addListener(mclListener);

image_mcl.loadClip(img1.jpg, image_mc);



I believe that the loading is really canceled. I don`t have the  
image in my

cache after calling this.

Can someone verify that this works? Any better solutions?



Thanx



Benjamin
