If you can detect the size of the screen and don't mind the
controls being a
bit pixelated you could try that.

Hi everyone,
This question has been puzzling me forever. How is it possible, when you build
a video player in Flash, to have a fullscreen button that sends the video in
fullscreen mode USING HARDWARE ACCELERATION but without distorting (scaling)
the video player skin with it?
I know it's
The AS3.0 documentation states that when a QName instance does not have a URI
(it only has a local name), it will match any namespace.
However, when I create a new QName instance like this
var myQName:QName = new QName(null, images);
and use that QName instance like this
var results:XMLList =
I think some ActionScript developers simply prefer the use of regular setVar()
getVar() instance methods instead of the AS3 get set keywords because they know
what's going on in their own code.
I remember going to Colin Moock's AS3 1 day crash course last year in Toronto
and he said that while
Does anyone know if string literals are the same as String objects in AS3?
From what I understand, in AS2, a String object was a wrapper object around a
string literal. For exemple, in AS2, these were not the same:
var myFirstString:String = my first string;
var mySecondString:String = new
objects the same in
AS3?

I was just wondering why, when I make a default ActionScript project in Flex
Builder 2, the file size of the generated SWF is around 561 bytes ? That's a
SWF with an empty main (or document) class instance.
I'm not saying that 561 bytes is too big. I'm just wondering why an empty flash

I might be wrong but I thought Google video used progressive download (not real
streaming) but used some sort oh PHP script to allow moving forward to a part
in the video that hasn't downloaded yet.

I've read that appending a random query string ( example : new Date.getTime() )
to the URL of assets (images, sounds, XML files, etc.) loaded at runtime in the
Flash Player ensures that these assets are always loaded from the server
instead of being loaded from the cache.

Hi! Just wondering if anyone ever found a solution to stop loading something
that is currently loading in the Flash Player (an image, a sound, an XML file,
etc.)?
I've heard and tried about loading a dummy (non-existent) file in place of the
file being loaded to stop the load process. When I

However, it still doesn't make sense to me!

in an FLV that weighs 2.56 MegaBytes no matter what
the other settings are.
But that's not the case.

Hi everyone!
I'm having real difficulty understanding how to
properly architect and structure Flash applications
using ActionScript 2.0.
I've read Colin Moock's excellent Essential
ActionScript 2.0 and several other books and articles
on the topic and while I can safely say that I do

Excuse my ignorance, but what is a faux ?
Fake Bold or Fake Italic, i.e. when the font itself
doesn't include any italic or bold versions of the
letters/glyphs.
Won't the render be ugly ? Like device fontsÂ…
No. Faux bold and faux italic are the
I've been doing some testing with sharded fonts lately
because they are a key part of a project I'm working
on right now.
So far, here's what I've learned by searching the

But, as of Flash Player 6.0.65.0, it's not
You wish as been granted :)
You can call another actionscript function from within
a dynamic textfield by setting it's html property to
true and using asfunction within the anchor tag like
this :
tfMyTextField.html = true;
tfMyTextField.htmlText = a
href=\asfunction:fMyFunction,sMyParameter\/a;
I'm looking at the NCManager class of the FLVPlayback
component and there's a method called parseURL that
parses the URI of the file to play to determine if
it's a prog. download or a streaming file, relative or
absolute, etc.
At one poitn in this method, there is the following

great way of detecting the presence and
