[Flashcoders] Time adjusted / Framerate independent animation…
Hello Flash coders, It's been a little quite here of late… So, hope it's good with with you all. … I have been trying to figure this out for a day or so, and wondering if you can help. I am trying to time correct my animation to be independent of framerate, which is a little easier when dealing with physics (scaling velocity / position) than non physics animation… In my app physics is time corrected, however I have some code that is not physics based an am trying to have that running independently of framerate (and not really succeding).

Re: [Flashcoders] Time adjusted / Framerate independent animation…
are you trying to do frame rate independent animation based on a fixed frame
rate (eg you switch from 30 to 60 and everything should move at the same pace
but more fluid
Yep - that is the one… all my game physics is independent of framerate (time
based)… however, I am trying to get other non-physics based animated
objects/code
to work the same way (i.e. the camera), and I am finding it a little difficult.
Will try your solution - although it looks like it's for the other option
(variable framerate)….

Re: [Flashcoders] Time adjusted / Framerate independent animation…
Thank you!
That make sense. Will integrate this into my code ( now looking at my camera
class ) …
This is quite important, as if there is any frame lag, physics and other
objects go out of sync.

Re: [Flashcoders] Time adjusted / Framerate independent animation…
Ok - i needed variable speed per frame (so animation keeps in time with
possible frame lag) .
I guess where I get confused is:
how would i structure this if I wanted the follower to for example follow the
mouse (with an eased delay)?…
Here is the code for now ( which is currently not really adjusting for frame
delay / variable speed )
private function enterFrame( event : Event ) : void {
// Update Time
dt = 0.001 * (getTimer() - t0);
time+= dt;
//
// TIME CORRECTED
var lSpeedPerSecond : Number = 30;
var lSpeedPerFrameVariable : Number = lSpeedPerSecond * dt;
var targetX : Number = ( ( spc.x -
stage.mouseX ) / lSpeedPerSecond );
spc.x -= targetX;
if ( 0 spc.x|| ( spc.x + spc.width ) stage.stageWidth ) spcDir =
-spcDir;
t0 = getTimer();

Re: [Flashcoders] Incubator updates
one observation here: Stage 3d / Molehill runs much much faster on a PC than a Mac. Recently loaded XP BootCamp, and some Away3D examples than ran at 2-3 FPS on OsX ran at 30 FPS in XP on the same PC, well all examples were an order of magnitude faster in XP / Window. I know it's early days, but I do hope that this gets ironed out, and we are not left with too much disparity/performance differentials between platforms. - k On 22 May 2011, at 10:54, Henrik Andersson wrote: Since nobody else has done this, I might as well do it.

var result : Object = patt.exec(tStr );
As it currently stands - it's not picking up Pvalue properly. it seems to be
working in Grants RegExp tool. But am having issues picking up the groups in my

This is my first attempt with RegExp, I guess it's not the easiest start.
Maybe it would be better to write a parser for this one, but am curious to know
if it can be done with AS3 RegExp.

Re: [Flashcoders] Automatic quality toggle
I developed an AIR app to export SWF to PNG sequences: http://swfrenderer.kurst.co.uk We developed it because flash was skipping frames and animation was not overly smooth on CPU intensive movies (be it code or timeline). We also had a few issues with the CS5 PNG/Movie exporter. It works with timeline animation and dynamic / coded animations (AS2/3) - and works well as long as tweens use frames instead of timecode. (for tweenmax, it's the useFrame property for tweens).

On 30 Nov 2010, at 01:53, Juan Pablo Califano wrote:
I think you're complicating the problem by introducing Math.abs which, I was
once told by a mathematically inclined colleague, is an arithmetic atrocity
(I've taken note of that since then and the nice thing is that almost
always, signs just work they way out without any extra help).
The formula is simpler than you probably think. You just need to find the
size of the range, that is the difference between the max and the min
values. Forget about signs, just take the max value and substract the min.
Easy as that.
If you have, say 10 and -4, the range size will be 14:
10 - (-4)
--
10 + 4 = 14
The signs don't matter, as long as you always substract the smaller value
from the bigger one.
Now, once you have this value, you just have to find how far the ranged
value is from min and then scale it.
Let's say your value is 3. I picked 3 because it's easy to see it's in the
middle and that the result should be 0.5.
So:
rangeSize is 14 (max - min).
min is -4
rangedValue is 3:
How far is rangedValue from min?
rangedValue - min
That is:
3 - (-4)
or
3 + 4 = 7
Now, the last step, scaling it:
(rangedValue - min) / rangeSize
Replacing the values:
(3 - (-4) ) / 14
(3 + 4) / 14
7 / 14 = 0.5
And there you have it.
So a function to normalize a ranged value could look like this:
function rangedToNormal(ranged:Number,min:Number,max:Number):Number {
var rangeSize:Number = max - min;
return (ranged - min) / rangeSize;
}
Going the other way is simple too:
function normalToRanged(normal:Number,min:Number,max:Number):Number {
var rangeSize:Number = max - min;
return min + normal * rangeSize;
}
(Though above you might want to validate that the normal value is actually
normalized before converting it to the passed range)
Also, I'm not sure how you are calculating the min and max values of your
list, but if there aren't other specific requirements, you could just use
Math.max and Math.min. They accept a variable number of arguments, not just
two, so Function::apply comes handy here:
var min:Number = Math.min.apply(null,list);
This will give you the min value of the list with just one line, no loops,
etc.
So, to wrap it up, you could write your function in just a few lines, like
this:
function normalizeNumbers(list:Array):Array {
var min:Number = Math.min.apply(null,list);
var max:Number = Math.max.apply(null,list);
var len:int = list.length;
var result:Array = [];
for(var i:int = 0; i len; i++) {
result[i] = rangedToNormal(list[i],min,max);
}
return result;
}

Hello FlashCoder...
maybe it's because it's late but it's getting a little confusing, and
google is not being friendly right now.
seems to works fine with positive numbers, however - i am trying to
normalise a range of positive and negative numbers... ( code simplified not
to find min and max values ).
I am currently am coming up a little short... hope this code does not give
anyone a headache; if you fancy a stab, or if you can point me in the right
direction
... otherwise ... will post results when i get there...

trace( testNormalizeNumbers( [ 1 , 1.5 , 2 ] , 2 , 1 ).toString()
);
trace('')
trace( testNormalizeNumbers( [ 1 , 1.5 , 5 , 1 , 6.4 , 6, 3, -2.6,
-1 , 3.5 ] , 6.4 , -2.6 ).toString() );
trace('')
trace( testNormalizeNumbers( [ -1 , -1.5 , -5 , -1 , -6.4 , -6, -3,
-2.6, -1 , -3.5 ] ,-1 , -6.4 ).toString() );
}
public function testNormalizeNumbers( a : Array , max : Number , min :
Number ) : Array {
var result : Array = new Array();
var nMax: Number= ( min 0 ) ? max - min : max +
Math.abs( min );
for ( var c : int = 0 ; c a.length ; c++ ){
var pRangedValue: Number = ( min 0 ) ?
a[c] - min : a[c] + Math.abs( min );

Re: [Flashcoders] Normalising Numbers
For some reason, it did not like, a full array of negative numbers (returned an
inverse normalisation), so added a case for that...
not sure it's the most elegant solution... here it is:
public function NormalizeArray() {
trace( normalizeNumbers( [ 1 , 1.5 , 2 ] ).toString() );
trace( normalizeNumbers( [ 1 , 1.5 , 5 , 1 , 6.4 , 6 , 3 , -2.6 , -1 ,
3.5 ] ).toString() );
trace( normalizeNumbers( [ -1 , -1.5 , -5] ).toString() ); //0,0.125,1
}
public function normalizeNumbers( list : Array ) : Array {
var min : Number= Math.min.apply( null , list );
var max : Number= Math.max.apply( null , list );
var len : int = list.length;
var result : Array = [];
var n : Boolean = ( min max 0 )
for (var i : int = 0; i len; i++) {
result[i] = ( n ) ? 1 - rangedToNormal( list[i] , min , max ) :
rangedToNormal( list[i] , min , max )
}
return result;
}
public function rangedToNormal( ranged : Number , min : Number , max : Number )
: Number {
var rangeSize : Number = max - min;
return (ranged - min) / rangeSize;
}

The formula is simpler than you probably think. You just need to find the
size of the range, that is the difference between the max and the min
values. Forget about signs, just take the max value and substract the min.
Easy as that.
If you have, say 10 and -4, the range size will be 14:
10 - (-4)
--
10 + 4 = 14
The signs don't matter, as long as you always substract the smaller value
from the bigger one.
Now, once you have this value, you just have to find how far the ranged
value is from min and then scale it.
Let's say your value is 3. I picked 3 because it's easy to see it's in the
middle and that the result should be 0.5.
So:
rangeSize is 14 (max - min).
min is -4
rangedValue is 3:
How far is rangedValue from min?
rangedValue - min
That is:
3 - (-4)
or
3 + 4 = 7
Now, the last step, scaling it:
(rangedValue - min) / rangeSize
Replacing the values:
(3 - (-4) ) / 14
(3 + 4) / 14
7 / 14 = 0.5
And there you have it.
So a function to normalize a ranged value could look like this:
function rangedToNormal(ranged:Number,min:Number,max:Number):Number {
var rangeSize:Number = max - min;
return (ranged - min) / rangeSize;
}
Going the other way is simple too:
function normalToRanged(normal:Number,min:Number,max:Number):Number {
var rangeSize:Number = max - min;
return min + normal * rangeSize;
}
(Though above you might want to validate that the normal value is actually
normalized before converting it to the passed range)
Also, I'm not sure how you are calculating the min and max values of your
list, but if there aren't other specific requirements, you could just use
Math.max and Math.min. They accept a variable number of arguments, not just
two, so Function::apply comes handy here:
var min:Number = Math.min.apply(null,list);
This will give you the min value of the list with just one line, no loops,
etc.
So, to wrap it up, you could write your function in just a few lines, like
this:
function normalizeNumbers(list:Array):Array {
var min:Number = Math.min.apply(null,list);
var max:Number = Math.max.apply(null,list);
var len:int = list.length;
var result:Array = [];
for(var i:int = 0; i len; i++) {
result[i] = rangedToNormal(list[i],min,max);
}
return result;
}

Wondering if the microphone - has a similar FFT output - like the one in 'computeSpectrum(ByteArray, FFTMode, stretchFactor )' . or would it just be best to wait for - SampleDataEvent - get the byteArray and read the values from there? Found this way of getting to the Mic sound data; http://pierrickpluchon.fr/blog/as3-how-to-plug-your-microphone-with-a-soundspectrum-in-flash-player-10-1/ There is little in the way of explanation of the code - so i could easily be wrong - he seems to be using the Mic.SAMPLE_DATA event to trigger a Sound and then get the computeSpectrum from that... this feels like a little of a roundabout way of getting at the FFT data - or is that the best way of going about it ?

Re: [Flashcoders] PureMVC or RobotLegs ?
Thanks for the advise, guess that's a good reason to start with Pure MVC, then move onto RL. Do you use RL / MVC for all projects, or just in specific instances ?

But I'd ultimately recommend learning MVC frameworks with PureMVC, as I think experience with it makes for stronger fundamentals. You end up wiring some stuff in with PureMVC manually that RobotLegs more or less automates. If the goal is to get the MVC patterns usage down correctly, that is. In practice I'm definitely finding RL faster to develop with (particularly with AS3 Signals), though with the caveat that handing off an RL project to a dev not familiar with it can spawn its own set of annoyances. --Matt On Mon, Sep 13, 2010 at 11:39 AM, Karim Beyrouti ka...@kurst.co.uk wrote: Hi all, After having a few clients screaming for MVC capable developers - i am finally about to byte the bullet and learn an MVC framework.

I have textfield link detection in this class - https://code.google.com/p/kurstcode/source/browse/trunk/libs/com/kurst/utils/TextFieldUtils.as using it for link roll-over / roll-out events.

Kinda feel silly with this question, I can't get fullscreen mode to work:
URL: http://clients.kurst.co.uk/ycommaz/12
HTML contains - allowFullScreen:'true' -
and the fullscreen code is:
private function ToggleFullScreen(event : MenuEvent) : void {
stage.fullScreenSourceRect = new Rectangle( 0 ,0 ,
Capabilities.screenResolutionX , Capabilities.screenResolutionY);
if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.NORMAL) {
stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
} else { stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.NORMAL; }
}
Also using the latest version of swfobject... have been googling, and spending
a fair bit of time for this one, but it's
just not working for me.
I get the following error:
'SecurityError: Error #2152: Full screen mode is not allowed.

Re: [Flashcoders] FullScreen - not working
Thanks for reply - already did this one
fullscreen function was moved to a MouseEvent - Click handler:
private function ClickFullScreenButton(event : MouseEvent) : void {
//dispatchEvent( new MenuEvent( MenuEvent.FULL_SCREEN , false )
)
stage.fullScreenSourceRect = new Rectangle( 0 ,0 ,
Capabilities.screenResolutionX , Capabilities.screenResolutionY);
if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.NORMAL) {
stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
} else { stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.NORMAL; }
}
Pasted the wrong function before ( had just moved it )... still scratching my
head on this one...
also ( another oddity ) - Chrome for OsX does not seem to change the mouse when
hovering over a button - but well - i can live with
that - if i get Fullscreen working...
Thanks again...

URL: http://clients.kurst.co.uk/ycommaz/12
HTML contains - allowFullScreen:'true' -
and the fullscreen code is:
private function ToggleFullScreen(event : MenuEvent) : void {
stage.fullScreenSourceRect = new Rectangle( 0 ,0 ,
Capabilities.screenResolutionX , Capabilities.screenResolutionY);
if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.NORMAL) {
stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
} else { stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.NORMAL; }
}
Also using the latest version of swfobject... have been googling, and
spending a fair bit of time for this one, but it's
just not working for me.
I get the following error:
'SecurityError: Error #2152: Full screen mode is not allowed.
at flash.display::Stage/set_displayState()
at flash.display::Stage/set displayState()
at
com.YcommaZ.navigation.main::Menu/ClickFullScreenButton()[/Users/karim/Documents/Work/Clients/YcommaZ/Site/src/com/YcommaZ/navigation/main/Menu.as:669]
anyone has ideas for this one?

[Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
Hi All - Wondering if there are any hacks to trigger a 'RollOver' script when hovering over a 'a href' link in an html textfield. Currently using TextEvent.LINK,to trigger links - but would like to show a tooltip on rollover (of that part of text). So far the only solution i can think of is using : TextField.getCharIndexAtPoint(x:Number, y:Number) create this - but it seems like this could be quite long winded solution. Any other ways of achieving this? Thanks Karim ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
The HREF link is only part the the textfields content, and each textfield can have more than one link amongst other copy and need to show relevant tooltip only when user is hovering over the 'a HREF' parts of the html textfield.

sorry, I tacked on that last if statement. It should probably read

maybe you want to check if its an appropriate web url with a regExp first,
but I think you get the idea.

Re: [Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
I've added a boolean - to save a few function calls - and also using a Timer (
instead of an enterframe) on a slowish delay - to save a few processor cycles.
private var tooltipFlag : Boolean = false;
/**
* @method
* @tooltip
* @param
* @return
*/
private function detectMouseOverLink( e : TimerEvent = null ) : void {
var index : Number = label.getCharIndexAtPoint (label.mouseX,
label.mouseY);
var url : String = ;
if (index 0) {
var fmt:TextFormat = label.getTextFormat (index, index + 1);
if (fmt.url) url = fmt.url;
}
if ( ( url.length 0 )
( ! tooltipFlag ) ) {
tooltipFlag = true;
trace('show - url: ' + url + ' tooltipFlag: ' + tooltipFlag );
} else if ( url.length == 0 tooltipFlag ) {
tooltipFlag = false;
trace('hide - url: ' + url + ' tooltipFlag: ' + tooltipFlag );
}
}
If i get time - i might turn this into a utility class - so you can do
something like:
txtRollOverManger.addRollOverListener( txt , callback ) -
or
txtRollOverManger.removeRollOverListener( txt , callback )
i have a few textfields - quite a few timers might affect performance...

This is a quick dirty test. Glad I could help out. I'm posting the code for
my test in case anyone else finds it useful.
One thing to note!
If text in a textfield does not fill the text field, a error can appear. In
my code below you can see that error. A link on the bottom line will
register when the cursor is in empty space below the link, but not directly
over it. The x property of the mouse is triggering the rollover. Maybe
someone else can explain this issue better.

Re: [Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
TextEvents were a big improvement over asfunction (AS2 hack) - still - it
would be nice if TextEvent had listeners for link rollovers / rollouts.
I like the fact you can still get to the url through using
textformat/getCharAtPoint.
Tooltip data is stored in the link:
a href=event:http://www.url.com/#this is a tooltip/a
So it's easily updatable.
thanks again very useful bit of code.
@ Henrik - Not used the TextLineMirrorRegion or the flash.text.engine - but
will look into it
when i get some time - looks like that could provide the functionality for
rollover / rollouts.

function replaceChar( str : String, charToRemove : String , charToReplace :

Re: [Flashcoders] HTML TextFields - 'A HREF' RollOvers..
Created a utility class for a href rollovers in html textfields -
https://code.google.com/p/kurstcode/source/browse/trunk/libs/com/kurst/utils/TextFieldUtils.as
Might be a little buggy - needs some testing, seems ok so far...
usage:
import com.kurst.utils.TextFieldUtils
TextFieldUtils.addHTMLRollOver( label, htmlHrefEvent , this );
function htmlHrefEvent( dataItem : TextFieldDataItem ) : void {
trace('MouseOverStatus: ' + dataItem.overFlag + ' htmlHrefEvent: ' +
dataItem.href )
}
Hope this helps someone...

[Flashcoders] JPG Encoder - Issue: file may be truncated or incomplete
Hi All, I have a little bug with JPGs encoded through flash ( AIR app ). The application exports resized JPG's, which seem fine and display correctly in the browser - also all good when loaded back into flash. However when opening them with photoshop i get the following error : This document may be damaged ( the file may be truncated or incomplete ). Continue? The JPG opens (in photoshop) with a missing strip at the end of the image. Sample encoded Image: http://gedit.kurst.co.uk/images/test/3.jpg I am using the Asynchronous - ru.inspirit.utils.JPGEncoder . Anyone come across this bug with JPG's encoded in flash? Project: https://code.google.com/p/kurstcode/source/checkout Code: https://code.google.com/p/kurstcode/source/browse/trunk/libs/com/kurst/air/ImageImporter.as Currently going to try using the AS3 Core lib encoder to see if the inspirit encoder is the issue (or if it's me).

If you want to convert it back to pixels, I'd say go with the Loader
approach.
Other than that, you'd have to write a JPEG decoder (seems like a waste of
time, considering you can already use a Loader, which would also be faster,
probably).
Now, if you are only interested in getting the width and height, that data
is in the SOFO block (SOFO stands for start of frame 0).
SOFO is marked by this sequence of bytes:
0xFF 0xC0
So, basically, you can loop through your bytearray until you find this
sequence.
Then offset your current position as necessary and read the height and
width.
If you take a look at the JPEG encoder from as3CoreLib, you can see you have
to skip 5 bytes from the beggining of the SOFO marker to get the height (2
bytes) and the width (2 bytes).
http://code.google.com/p/as3corelib/source/browse/trunk/src/com/adobe/images/JPGEncoder.as
Now, I haven't read the JPEG spec, so I'm not sure if this is a fixed
offset. I'm assuming it is, but you'd better check it if you want to use
this code. I've tried it with a couple of JPEG's and it worked fine,
though.
Also, you might want to validate if what you've got is a JPEG (check the
first 2 bytes for 0xff, 0xd8); you might also want to check that you're not
reading out of the buffer bounds.
function readJPEGSize(data:ByteArray):void {
var len:int = 0;
var i:int = 0;
var offset:int = 0;
while(data.bytesAvailable 1) {
// look for 0xffc0
if(data[i] == 0xFF data[i + 1] == 0xC0) {
offset = i;
break;
}
i++;
}
/*
writeSOF0(image.width,image.height);
writeWord(0xFFC0); // marker
writeWord(17); // length, truecolor YUV JPG
writeByte(8);// precision
writeWord(height);
writeWord(width);
Skip 5 bytes:
2 SOFO marker
2 length
1 precision
*/
var h:int = 0;
var w:int = 0;
if(offset 0) {
offset += 5;
data.position = offset;
h = data.readUnsignedShort();
w = data.readUnsignedShort();
trace(w,h);
}
}

Hi All
do any of you how to convert a ByteArray (of a JPG) back into a BitmapData
object?
Actually - i just need to get the dimensions of the bitmap before trashing
it. I know you can do 'myloader.loadBytes( byteArray )' - but i am avoiding
that for now - as i just need to get the size of the image.
Any pointers?
mucho thanks

Re: [Flashcoders] AIR - ByteArray to BitmapData
it's a pleasure -
missed a file in my upload to svn - now corrected and updated.
I have also included a sample/test Flash Builder / Air 1.5 application that
resizes Jpegs above a certain
size - and copies the result to a 'temp' folder in the application directory.
work in progress, but functional. I will be using that as an image importer in
for an application i am working on...
Spent quite a while making sure memory is cleared after each image resize/copy
batch operation
( i do wish Flash Player had better memory management / Control over the GC).
Also tried the
Alchemy complied JPG encoders out there, which were much faster, but I think
they created a
memory leak - although that's probably me not finding the clean-up
functions.Ended up using
the 'inspirit' async Jpg encoder here (thanks - http://blog.inspirit.ru/ -
love his work ).
hmm... that's quite a rant for me... enjoy...

SOFO is marked by this sequence of bytes:
0xFF 0xC0

Then offset your current position as necessary and read the height and
width.
If you take a look at the JPEG encoder from as3CoreLib, you can see you
have
to skip 5 bytes from the beggining of the SOFO marker to get the height
(2
bytes) and the width (2 bytes).

though.
Also, you might want to validate if what you've got is a JPEG (check the

Hi All
do any of you how to convert a ByteArray (of a JPG) back into a
BitmapData
object?
Actually - i just need to get the dimensions of the bitmap before
trashing
it. I know you can do 'myloader.loadBytes( byteArray )' - but i am
avoiding
that for now - as i just need to get the size of the image.
Any pointers?
mucho thanks

Re: [Flashcoders] Question about approximate vowel detection in AS3
Yeh - not sure this will help however - a (very talented) colleague of mine worked on a simple speech recognition software for mobile - it was built to recognise about 20 commands with 90% success rate. His approach (in my simplistic terms) was: 1) get recordings / audio samples of the commands (in your case vowels - it should be easier as it's generated so you wont have to compare against too many/different intonations ) - 2) create / store a graph of the audio commands ( this used FFT (s) - to abstract and simplify, the pattern of the commands - the result was a square voice print graph ) 3) The stored patterns/voiceprints were then compared against the users voice recording. The trickiest part of this whole business were the Fast Fourier Transforms - these things get very complicated, and confuse the life out of me. Anyway, hopefully this will help you - seems like it might be the best approach. if you do crack it - you will end up with a simple voice recognition system. Which would be a brilliant and useful thing bit of code to have... hope this was of any use.. - karim On 4 Jun 2010, at 01:23, Karl DeSaulniers wrote: I would try using that to figure out a way of maping the sounds and then translate that to your project.

[Flashcoders] Resizing Bitmap - Preserving Alpha
Hi All - I have this code that resizes a bitmap, which works very well.
However - it does not preserve the alpha channel. I am not sure where
i am going wrong:
public static function resizeBitmap( originalBitmap : Bitmap ,
scaleFactor : Number ) : BitmapData{
var originalBitmapData:BitmapData=originalBitmap.bitmapData;
var newWidth:Number=originalBitmapData.width*scaleFactor;
var newHeight:Number=originalBitmapData.height*scaleFactor;
var scaledBitmapData:BitmapData=new
BitmapData(newWidth,newHeight,true,0x);
var scaleMatrix:Matrix=new Matrix();
scaleMatrix.scale(scaleFactor,scaleFactor);
scaledBitmapData.draw(originalBitmapData , scaleMatrix);
return scaledBitmapData;
}
I am more than likely missing something obvious - so any clues would
be very welcome...
Many kind regards

Re: [Flashcoders] Image loader problem
I went for bulkloader over making my own queued loader - as it has so
many tested features. Here is a little code to help get you started
( if you need it )...
Instantiate the loader...
code
// New Bulk Loader
imgLoader = new BulkLoader( 'NameOfLoaderInstance');
imgLoader.addEventListener(BulkLoader.COMPLETE, AllItemsLoaded ,
false , 0 , true );
/code
Load images:
code
// Clear the loader of any previously loaded images
imgLoader.removeAll();
// Add all the images to the loading queue
for ( var i : int = 0 ; i _data.length ; i ++ ){
var record : Object= _data.getItemAt( i );
var item: LoadingItem = imgLoader.add( record['uri'] );
item.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE , completeHandler , false ,
0 , true );
item.addEventListener( ProgressEvent.PROGRESS , progressHandler ,
false , 0 , true );
}
// start loading - one item at a item - this will load images in the
order you added them
imgLoader.start( 1 );
/code
Image Loaded Event Handler:
code
private function completeHandler( e : Event ) : void {
//
// remove event listeners and reference the bitmap
var item:LoadingItem= e.target as LoadingItem;
item.removeEventListener( Event.COMPLETE , completeHandler );
item.removeEventListener( ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,
progressHandler );
var sURL : String = item.url.url;
var record : Object = getRecordByKey( sURL, 'uri' );
record.loadid = sURL;
view.addImage( imgLoader.getBitmap( record.loadid ) , record );
}
/code
hope this helps...

RE: [Flashcoders] ComboBox not dropping down in browser?
The problem with the drop down not working could be you removing some needed assets from the styling MovieClips. I suggest if you need to remove some bits of components you just test a lot and try to set the alpha to 0 from the palette if you need to remove something... As for the fonts - I had some issues. This code worked for me (AS3 FP9): Note GothamMedium is embedded in the lib. code var tClass:Class= getDefinitionByName(GothamMedium) as Class; Font.registerFont(tClass); var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); tf.font = Gotham Medium; tf.size = 12; tf.bold = false; cmb_mc.dropdown.setRendererStyle(embedFonts , true); cmb_mc.dropdown.setRendererStyle(textFormat , tf); cmb_mc.textField.setStyle(fontFamily , Gotham Medium ); cmb_mc.textField.setStyle(embedFonts , true ); dob_txt.embedFonts = true; dob_txt.setTextFormat( tf); StyleManager.setStyle( textFormat , tf) /code Hope this helps Karim -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Preston Parris Sent: 31 October 2008 16:53 To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: [Flashcoders] ComboBox not dropping down in browser? I have a combo box that I just styled, everything works perfectly in the flash ide, all of the data populates, it drops down, is styled fine, Now when I open it in the browser, I click to drop it down, nothing happens. If I click it then tab to the box it shows the yellow outline of wear the content should be yet nothing is there, also my font styling for this box seems to have no effect in the browser, yet like I said in the ide, everything is perfect. thank you to anyone who can help, I will continue my struggle, haha. -- Preston Parris [EMAIL PROTECTED] cell: 704.450.9299 www.modevisual.com ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Or, thinking about it, you could catch the reference error in a

[Flashcoders] AS3 - Checking if a Function Exists
Hello Group -
This should be really easy. I am trying to find out how to check if a
function exists or not in AS3 -
I tried this:
code
If ( currentSection.refresh != null ) {
currentSection.refresh();
}
/code
But I get ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property refresh not found when the
function does not exist.
Any clues?
Kind Regards
Karim

[Flashcoders] FLVPlayback - Buffering
Hello groovy list... I can't seem to find a property for buffering percentage in the FLVPlayback component - there must be something as there is a bufferingBar property. any thoughts?

RE: [Flashcoders] FLVPlayback - Buffering
Hi Leandro - thanks for the reply - However I am looking to get the Percentage of buffering - so something like: bufferLoaded/bufferTime So far I have found this: flvPlayer.getVideoPlayer(flvPlayer.activeVideoPlayerIndex).netStream.bufferL ength / flvPlayer.getVideoPlayer(flvPlayer.activeVideoPlayerIndex).netStream.bufferT ime; but it's not spitting out the correct values - I guess I am miss-interpreting them.

If so, you expect a percentage from what? If you want to change the buffer length, try bufferTime.

RE: [Flashcoders] ComBox Box - Font Issues
I am setting everything before I add the data. However I have sorted the issue out by setting the global style. I don't think its optimal - but it works. Here is my working code for reference: code var tClass:Class= getDefinitionByName(GothamMedium) as Class; Font.registerFont(tClass); var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); tf.font = Gotham Medium; tf.size = 12; tf.bold = false; cmb_mc.dropdown.setRendererStyle(embedFonts , true); cmb_mc.dropdown.setRendererStyle(textFormat , tf); cmb_mc.textField.setStyle(fontFamily , Gotham Medium ); cmb_mc.textField.setStyle(embedFonts , true ); dob_txt.embedFonts = true; dob_txt.setTextFormat(tf); StyleManager.setStyle(textFormat , tf) /code Many thanks for all your help Karim -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Glen Pike Sent: 19 October 2008 21:59 To: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] ComBox Box - Font Issues Hi, Are you setting these values before or after you add the data?
