[Flashcoders] strange TypeError: Error #1034:
Hey all, I have three buttons set up that are tweening in on the timeline, they each are movieclips with the same associated class, two of the buttons work and have no problems, the other one give me: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::moviec...@3b70b431 to com.mellowmushroom.ui.about.AboutLandingButton. I have made sure that the instance names and movieclip are the same through out the animation, I even tried creating an entirely new clip and not animating at all, I still get the same thing. The other wierd thing is that the button still works even though it gives me an error, like the properties that are set in the AboutLandingButton class still apply and work for that button. This is driving me crazy, any help in the right direction would be very awesome.

[Flashcoders] facebook as3 api logging in without javascript popup/redirect
So I have been messing with the flash as3 facebook api, what I am trying to achieve is logging in to facebook without using the javascript pop up, or the browser redirect to the facebook connect page. I would just like to type in a username and password for facebook within the flash app. I have extensively searched google for this, the only thing similar i have found is this: http://blog.vixiom.com/2008/01/10/log-into-facebook-with-adobe-air-without-leaving-the-desktop/ <http://blog.vixiom.com/2008/01/10/log-into-facebook-with-adobe-air-without-leaving-the-desktop/> but this is written for adobe air, and apparently the method it uses to do this is the HTML component , that is an air only thing. Does anyone know of a way to do this in flash with as3? I can't use flex for this project either. Thank you for any help. -- Preston Parris ppar...@modevisual.com cell: 704.450.9299 www.modevisual.com ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

[Flashcoders] tubeloc as3 youtube in flash
Hey all, has anyone messed with the chromeless youtube player in flash? the best way I can find to do this is the tubeloc package, I have successfully built the as3 flash package with ant and the flex builder sdk, but It doesnt seem to actually load the movie, nor does it provide an fla for the main swf. Anyone have some advice or a tutorial to use? -- Preston Parris ppar...@modevisual.com cell: 704.450.9299 www.modevisual.com ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
[Flashcoders] as3 rollover rolloff issue..
So basically I have a bunch of thumbnail images set up in a grid form, each is the same movieclip just multiple instances of it. This movie clip has a rollover and rolloff state that basically scales the image up, this is done with external as that loops through and creates the event listeners for each one. If i roll over a movie clip and then roll off at normal speed, everything works as intended, the old one scales down to normal size, and then new one scales up. The issue comes when you quickly roll off and then back on. The movieclip gets stuck in scaling down to about half way. Any ideas on how to fix this? Also I dont want to remove all of the event listeners for the other clips until it scales back down because it would take away from the visual effect. thank you! -- Preston Parris ppar...@modevisual.com cell: 704.450.9299 www.modevisual.com ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
[Flashcoders] Scrollable Text Input Field?
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to create a text input field with a custom scrollbar, I have everything set up , I have my custom scrollbar, and a text input field that scrolls when you move the scroller thumb. The problem is that since it is a text input field, I need to be able to detect when the text field fills up, so that I can move the scrollbar to the bottom. Also when you highlight the text and move it up I need to be able to have it scroll back up. I have my _input.onChanged function set up, I just need to know what to do inside of here. thank you! ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
[Flashcoders] grey line around ComboBox?
Firstly I would like to thank everyone who has replied to my previous questions, if your answers have not solved my problem they have definitely led me in the right direction. I have a ComboBox that is completely styled with _global.styles.ComboBox.etc. and I have a custom RectBorder class set up. I am working on a mac, in as2 , exporting for as2 and flashplayer 8. When I export and run in the browser, and then tab to the drop downs, everything works correctly. When I open up the same swf on a windows machine, a grey border outlining the drop down fully opened appears when I tab. What is this border? why is it only showing up on a pc, and more importantly how can I get rid of it? just changing the theme color, or bordercolor does not work. thank you. -- 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] TextInput highlight color when set to blend layer mode
I have a MovieClip with a text input component on top of a white box with grey border. In order to get the text inside of the Text Input component to be able to fade in and out I had to set the entire movie clip to blend mode layer. After doing this, when I click on the text input field the text cursor does not show up, and the highlight color of the text is white, everything is white actually. I'm wondering if there is a way to get this back to the default highlight color, or if there is another way to fade in and out the text input, the actual text input fades out but not the text inside if I don't set it to layer.
