[Flashcoders] IE7 Crashing on FileReference.download()
For 99% of our users, they can download images just fine via FileReference.download(). However, one user in particular is using IE7, Windows XP, and without fail, anytime FileReference.download() is called, IE will crash. Doesn't matter whether it's our site, or other sites that allow downloads that we've directed her to to test. Anybody see a similar problem, or have any ideas? She's using FP 9.0.45 - Josh ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
Re: [Flashcoders] SourceSafe??? Recommendations needed.
Our company tried using SourceSafe for a while, but gave up on it after it kept corrupting files, or locking them up and not allowing anyone to access them, without an admin's intervention. Also, we couldn't find a decent Mac client for it either. We switched to Subversion after that, and have been using it since. It's free, and is pretty easy to setup. We really haven't had any problems with it either, and the ones we have had were user related. I'd definitely recommend the SVN route. - Josh On Apr 21, 2006, at 8:32 AM, JesterXL wrote: Subversion. http://subversion.tigris.org/ A Windows client: http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ You can install yourself on your own server, or hosted.

Since Word, Excel, FLA, ect. are binary, there is no such thing. However, ASCII files (text ones), like TXT, AS, MXML, HTML, CSS and the rest WILL do comparisons. You can track changes all types of files, and see who checked what in. Newer versions of Subversion also have the ability to lock a file so you cannot check something in (Visual Source Safe had this by default, but many people didn't like it). - Original Message - From: Loren R.

Hi: We are slowing building our eLearning group in our company. We are finding that we really need a system like SourceSafe. The question is, does anyone know if SourceSafe (or some other system handles): FLA, SWF files BMP, GIF, PNG, JPG files WAV files DOC files PDF files FM files (Framemaker) files PSD files Corel files We are looking for one system running on a server that would be able to house all of these file types (maybe more) and provide versioning, check in / check out, etc. Also, it would be nice if the system could do comparisons. (Although this may be asking for too much). For example, it could compare 2 docs and tell what the differences are. However, this is a nicety, NOT a requirement. I appreciate any advice.

Re: [Flashcoders] Find Nearest Color?
That's what I actually ended up doing, and it worked out pretty good:
private function getClosest (red1:Number, green1:Number,
blue1:Number):Number {
var totalColors:Number = __palette.length;
var tempDistance:Number;
var closestColor:Number;
for (var i:Number = 0; i totalColors; i++) {
// first, break up the color to check
var red2:Number = (__palette[i] 0xFF) 16;
var green2:Number = (__palette[i] 0x00FF00) 8;
var blue2:Number = __palette[i] 0xFF;
// now, get the distance from the source
var tempD:Number = Math.sqrt ((Math.abs(red1 - red2) ^ 2) +
(Math.abs(green1 - green2) ^ 2) + (Math.abs(blue1 - blue2) ^ 2));
if ((tempD = tempDistance) || tempDistance ==
undefined) {
tempDistance = tempD;
closestColor = __palette[i];
}
}
return closestColor;
}

If a color can be treated as a point in a 3-d cube 256 units on
each side, you can use the formula in this reference
http://www.uwm.edu/~ericskey/TANOTES/Ageometry/node10.html
to calculate the distance between 2 colors.
I have not tried this but it would seem logical that this would work

K, here is some better math for getRGB, performance will probably be
important:
return [c16, c8~0xFF00, c~0xF00];
You can also try using the ColorTransform or Color class to get
the rgb
values, except they might be slower than getting the raw math right.

I tried comparing the hex values directly, but there were

maybe the same ones you've been having. I think since the value
of a
particular color precedes with a 0 even when it's below 17(0F), the
preceding 0 causes a shifting in the comparison. It would, for
example,
cause 0x00 to seem farther to 0x123456 than 0x00FF00, where
visually you
can see clearly that black is closer to 0x00.
btw in my example, var a = 0x12345 where it should be 0x123456.
The numbers hold to be accurate after correcting this typo.

I've got the custom palette I have to work with stored in an

and for each color in my image, I've got it finding the color

what I'm looking for.
Does anybody know of any formulas available for comparing multiple

been
searching Google for a while, with no luck. Any good resources on
color formulas such would be appreciated.

Re: [Flashcoders] Loading several images with one progressbar?
Here's a couple of ideas: If the image urls are fetched from an XML file, and the xml is generated dynamically, have the server write the filesize of the images into the xml. Or, if the images are added to the xml manually, add the filesize of each image to the XML. Or, you could just display a number of total images loaded: Loading 3 of 15 for example, instead of the total bytes loaded. - Josh On Mar 12, 2006, at 2:06 AM, Sascha Balkau wrote: Hi Adrian, thanks for the idea but this approach will not work in my case because the images are loaded sequencially. If one image is finished loading, my class starts loading the next and so on, one after one. And the amount of images varies (the image filenames are fetched from a XML file). I'm now defining a segmentWidth by dividing the full progressbar width by the amount of images that are going to be loaded. That gives me the 100% for one image on the whol bar. I just haven't figured out yet how to make it work so that the bar doesn't start from 0 at every image. Any other idea?

Say you have 3 images loading, use something like this: var bytesLoaded:Number = 0; var bytesTotal:Number = 0; bytesLoaded += image1.getBytesLoaded(); bytesTotal += image1.getBytesTotal(); bytesLoaded += image2.getBytesLoaded(); bytesTotal += image2.getBytesTotal(); bytesLoaded += image3.getBytesLoaded(); bytesTotal += image3.getBytesTotal(); var percentageLoaded:Number = (bytesLoaded/bytesTotal) * 100; There may be ways to optimise this code depending on your circumstances (e.g. just calculate bytesTotal once and reuse it) but this shows the basic idea.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash 8.5 on OSX
Actually, I've had this problem in 10.4.2. The few things I published for 8.5 worked, but most of the examples I've found online don't work at all. Stuff like the PerlinForce from andre-michelle.com for example. - Josh On Nov 1, 2005, at 6:38 PM, Simon Lord wrote: Just updated to OSX 10.4.3 and nothing published to Flash 8.5 appears in the browser (yes, I installed the 8.5 plugin). Can't revert the OS install and so can't determine if it's the upgrade that prevents the plugin from displaying 8.5 content. Everything published for 8 works fine, although some swf's like the Planetarium on neave.com brings Safari down like a rock.
