...damn... I tried using this technique to run YahooMaps, but even though the zoomLevel setter was set, it was just a blank beize. So, I tried using BitmapData.draw, both in the SWF and in Flex, but no dice...

I think is backwards. Like, this.source() fires the function that shows the alert. You're writing it like myMC is supposed to hold the return value of the source function, but the source function doesn't return anything. Additionally, while myMC.myRect is a reference to the function, does the box actually get drawn in the SWF when you click the button? :: goes to try this + Jason's code :: ----- Original Message ----- From: "sufibaba" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 08, 2006 9:47 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Got embed SWF to call a function in Flex Hi guys, Check this out, if you make the following changes to Jason Wong's little example, then SWF is able to call a function in Flex2. I got it to fire a function -- no sending of arguments yet. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml" xmlns="*" layout="absolute"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.controls.Alert; public var arg:String; private function onClick(): void { var swf: MovieClip = MovieClip(myLoader.content); var myMC: MovieClip = MovieClip(swf.getChildByName("myMC")); myMC.myRect = this.source(); //get function reference. } public function source():void { Alert.show ("callback"); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Loader id="myLoader" x="5" y="5" source="SimpleSWF.swf"/> <mx:Button x="10" y="167" label="Button" click="onClick()"/> </mx:Application> In the myClip.as file -- By the way, in order to get jason's Simple.swf to compile in the flash IDE, you'll need to change the following: 1. MyClip movie Linkage from "MyClip" to "myClip" 2. Change the "MyClip.as" file name to "myClip" Make the following changes to myClip.as ----------------------------------------------------------------- class myClip extends MovieClip { function set myRect(funcRef: Object): Void { _parent.lineStyle(2, 0xff0000); _parent.moveTo(60, 60); _parent.lineTo(200, 60); _parent.lineTo(200, 100); _parent.lineTo(60, 100); _parent.lineTo(60, 60); funcRef; } } ----------------------------------------------------------------- What should happen.... If you click on the button it should popup an Alert box displaying the word "callback" Cheers, Tim -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
