[Flashcoders] Flash based desktop mate

2006-10-05 Thread Shane Casey
Hey all,

I'm looking into the possibility of building a desktop buddy type
application in Flash. Basically it would need to be a full-screen projector
file but with a transparent background that would allow the user to interact
with other windows etc.

Any ideas?

Zinc can do this and so can IceProjector, IIRC.

I used mProjector and it's quite ok. It comes with tones of samples.

Gotta watch the memory though when you use alpha.  Tried it on
mProjector before and the program didn't work well because it was on
alpha.

 it would need to be a full screen projector file

Why would it need to be a full screen projector file?

mProjector's alpha performance on Windows is the best there is.  
http://www.thespringbox.com/  uses mProjector and has alpha
transparency.

If you want to be able to move something around the screen, you can move
it around the screen by setting the window's x and y position.  You
don't need to make it a full screen application.  If you want multiple
things to appear in different places anywhere on the screen, you open up
new mProjector windows and communicate to those using mProjector's API.
It's all supported and well documented.  You don't need to make it a
full screen application to achieve those things.  :)
