RE: [Flashcoders] Help: test EventDispatcher speed please

Regarding the test, I think it would be more useful to have people specify whether or not they are on an Intel or an original Mac. I have definitely noticed performance improvements since upgrading to my Intel, but I'm not sure if its only because of the faster processor, if the Flash Player hand

As far as I can figure, "skewing" isn't available in flash right now... Adjusting the yScale will change the dimensions of a movieclip, for example (Hope my ASCII drawings work!) ___ | | |___| Becomes _ | | |_| When you reduce the _yScale. Skewing horizontally would be adjusting the

I have a class that I instantiate. At some point in the running of my application, I destroy almost every display list object (to "disable" the application).

Are you using bold or italic text? Using bold and italics with embedded font can make the text not visible if it changes. I believe it can be done, but I haven't spent the time researching it... Just been easier to not use bold. -Dan -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:

You need to keep track of the previous x value and compare that to the new x value. The simplest way to achieve this is an onEnterFrame function (although note this is the least efficient way). For example try putting a movie clip called "ball_mc" on your stage and add this code to the first fram

If you are using the MovieClipLoader class you could call an onLoadError event. It seems to work well, but you still get the "Error opening URL..." message under your custom error message. __mclListener = new Object(); __mcl = new MovieClipLoader(); __mclListener.onLoadError = function(target_m
