[Flashcoders] Disabling FLVPlayback component skin controls
I would like to be able to toggle whether the controls for a Flash 8 FLVPlayback component are enabled. I don't want to hide them all (like the skinAutoHide attribute does), rather keep them visible but non-interactive. Preferably I would like to control this per item, as I would like to leave the audio controls interactive. I have found there is an attribute FLVPlaybackInstance._uiMgr._controlsEnabled which enables and disables all of the button controls (although unfortunately not the seek bar). I am currently experimenting with enabling and disabling all of the mouse events for the movieclips in FLVPlaybackInstance._uiMgr.controls , but it isn't looking hopeful.

Re: [Flashcoders] plz suggest.....urgent
Well, there are two methods. To do what you are trying below, you will want one movieclip in the library with instance name "checkbox_scrollpane_content", and this movieclip will then have code to attachMovie as many checkboxes as needed. This way your scrollpane always has the same contentPath, but this content knows to update as needed. However, I have done a similar thing before (controls to show/hide grid columns), and the way I did it was the popup window displayed a single Datagrid component with two columns, one column containing the titles, the other containing a checkbox CellRenderer. I find it much easier to deal with content in a Datagrid than in a ScrollPane (where the content abstraction can be a pain).

Re: [Flashcoders] How do you code your Flash applications?
What are the situations that you have come across where only manual depth management would work? Do you have other ways of managing depth? It's not a matter of getNextHighestDepth not working, it's a matter of controlling the depth to avoid unexpected behaviors. I've never had a problem with accidentally creating a movie clip at the same depth as something else, and that's one less thing I have to think about when debugging. The only time when setting depth constants was inconvenient for me was in a windowing system I built, in which case I built a window manager class that managed depth for me. The window manager class kept windows on a timeline where nothing but windows would ever be created, and always kept the depths of the windows consecutive, so when a window was closed it was swapped to the top before closing, and there were never gaps in the depths. I *could* have used getNextHighestDepth and saved myself the trouble of swapping windows to the top before closing them, but then if a user left the app open overnight and used it for several days in a row, they could theoretically open enough windows to hit the 65,535 depth limit and unexpected things could happen. So I went ahead and wrote the extra 10 lines of code to keep the depths consecutive, and circumvented the problem before it ever occurred. ryanm ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Re: Setting the last pressed key in the Key class
Define your own static MyKey class and have it subscribe as a listener to Flash's Key. It can then be your applications "Key" class. Meaning your objects listen to MyKey while MyKey listens to Key. Then MyKey can at anytime listen to something else that feeds it input. There's nothing magic about the Key class you can't use the MyKey class for. MyKey can then also store the last key pressed (whether it was a real key from the Key class or a virtual key from somewhere else).

"...I don't feel like playing anymore." ok, let's not talk down to others who have good coding practices, even if they're not your coding practices. It's a good discussion. Managing the depths the way Ryan does it allows for a lot of control. getNextHighestDepth can be limiting as you have to predict the appropiate order of display items which can be problematic in a larger application. But the manual method sounds even more limiting, labeling depths that not only are now hard-coded in, but have to be understood and kept track of. I said it before, order matters, relational depths and not numbers.

Please explain what you mean by "checkboxes in a scrollbar". Do you mean a list component (scrollable), where each row contains a checkbox? If so, you want to use a CellRenderer.

Re: [Flashcoders] How do you code your Flash applications?
Just to throw my 2c in, I personally only use getNextHighestDepth(), and as yet haven't had any problems with it. The majority of our screens are already placed in the Flash timeline, I use attachMovie almost only to populate scrollpanes, and loadMovie only into graphic components. To keep our code separated from the design, we will use placeholders / components in the Flash file to define where external elements are loaded. This lets the designers fiddle with what they like, without having to bother me :) Regards, Grant Cox Nathan Derksen wrote: Nonsense, this is a great debate IMHO, and I would love to hear more from others as well.

Re: [Flashcoders] How do you code your Flash applications?
You make it sound like I'm forcing it to work. I'm not forcing it, it works as a nice byproduct of how I normally setup and group my movie clips. I see this as being good coding practice. Things that are grouped together share a parent movie clip, making control of the group easier and making depth management easer as each movie clip manages the depths of its children. I hate renumbering depths, and I don't like having to figure out blocks of depths then later finding that I need to move a block later on. This works very cleanly for me, both from architecting movie clips into a logical hierarchy and from preventing annoying depth collisions. I don't deny that it will not work in all situations, nor did I claim so, nor do I know your particular experiences with depth management. I do however have a hard time imagining that manual depth management is a best practice. Anyway, this has gone on long enough. If you haven't gotten the point yet you're never going to.

Re: [Flashcoders] Timeline sound delay
What he said. By default, the sound is set to event, which means that it will play without concern to the pace of the timeline. If the timeline skips a frame due to performance, or stops completely because you paused it with script, the sound will keep going. By setting it to stream, it is tied directly to the timeline, and will remain in sync regardless of performance or playhead manipulation.

Re: [Flashcoders] Accessing Dynamically Created MC's
This is just because "group_mc.node_mc" is not a property of "this",
only the "group_mc" bit is. What you would need to do is
this["group_mc"]["node_mc"] , however you want to store those in your array.
Or, you can use eval, as
testValue = eval(targetArray[0]).id;
should do what you want, and it is not deprecated in AS2.

Re: [Flashcoders] Is podcasting possible with Flash MX 2004 Pro ?
not sure exactly what you are asking. 'Podcasting' generally means using a special tag (i'm pretty sure the tag name is 'enclosure' but im not 100%) in an rss feed which indicate a path to a file (mp3 generally. Programs like itunes 'subscribe' to that rss feed (meaning they listen for new entries). When a new post is found, the program will download the file indicated in the special tag. Being that rss is basically xml in a special format, you can read the in the rss feed and fork with that...then download the mp3 file you want and play it.

Re: [Flashcoders] Q:implementing quadtrees
So i guess what I'm asking is
What is the best way to set up the node array(s)? (nested , associative, using objects, etc)
What i would suggest is that when you classify the hotspots, you only create the
nodes that you need.
For the data structure each node can have 4 children, so a simple array will do
containing references to its 4 child nodes, or even just 4 member variables if
you dont want to loop :)
So when constructing the tree you can just create the nodes that actually
contain hotspots..
e.g. (in the node class)
function classify(hotspot)
{
// flag to indicate if the hotspot is entirely contained
// within a leaf node
var containedInLeafNode:Boolean = false;
for(var n=0;n<4;n++)
{
// test bounds of child[n] to see if it can hold the hotspot
if(isInQuadrant(n,hotspot))
{
// Make a new node if we dont already have it.
if(childNodes[n] == undefined)
{
childNodes[n] = new Node();
}
childNodes[n].classify(hotspot);
containedInLeafNode = true;
}
}
// If none of the leaf nodes 'took ownership' of the hotspot
// then hold onto it here.
if(!containedInLeafNode)
{
candidates.push(hotspot);
}
}
So this will recurse down the tree, making sure that any item is contained
within the smallest possible leaf node. Of course you'll want to put a limit on
how small a node can get. How small that is depends on the sizes of the items
you want to classify, if i remember correctly (which i wouldnt assume i do) then
the best target size is somewhere just around the size of the smallest object
you are trying to classify, unless you are classifying lots of very small
objects relative to screen size then you can just cap it somewhere like 4 or 5
levels deep.
Then when you come to query the tree for nodes that contain items that may be
within distance of your draggable object you only need to bother with the nodes
that exist
for speed you could even not bother with a loop and also take advantage of the
fact that calling a function on something that doesnt exist wont generate an error :
so instead of
for(i=0;i<4;i++)
{
if(childNodes[n] != undefined)
{
// check childNodes[n] for candidates
}
}
you just do
candidateList.concat(childNodes[0].getThingsThatAreClose(draggableObject))
candidateList.concat(childNodes[1].getThingsThatAreClose(draggableObject))
etc..
anyway, im just typing it out as it comes into my head..some of it from hazy
memories of implementations past. :)
Theres no real canonical way of working with quadtrees, the beauty is that you
can adapt them according to your particular requirements.
Id be interested to hear other peoples opinions and experiences or just 'why
bother, you can do 'x' because its easier and quicker'
thanks,

Re: [Flashcoders] serviceName property being added to Flash Remoting Data
I get a kind of meta data from from the objects generated via database queries. along with my items property, there comes result.mRecordsAvailable, result.serverInfo ( usually null ), and result.uniqueID. I really don't know what purpose it would serve for client side scripts, since all this information, maybe except uniqueID, can be determined with other properties. I've had serviceName in some instances, except, if I recall correctly, it's always been null. I use CF for remoting, what do you guys use? I wonder if it has something to do with the serverside language appending redundant data due to some configuration switches. Maybe serverside reconfigurations can stop it. M.

[Flashcoders] Q:implementing quadtrees
I need to perform distance calculations between a number of fixed 'hotspots' and a draggable movie clip on a 2d plane. To reduce the number of calcualtions I only want to be concerned with those 'hotspots' that are 'closest to' the movieclip at any given time. So I need to perform some sort of 'proximity test' In an earlier post someone pointed out Grant Skinner's Proximity class, which is useful if all of your hot spots are moving. Martin Wood alos opnend my eys to something called 'quadtrees' which is a method of spatial partitioning absolutely essential in reducing the number of calculations in games involving a lot of 3d rendering and spatial movement. A great reference here: http://www.gamedev.net/reference/articles/article1303.asp The simple quadtree I have in mind would be composed of a 16X16 grid of cells or 'leaves'. The dimensions of our draggable clip would also be smaller than each cell. To simplify things each 'base node' I would define as having 2X2 or 4 cells. So there would be a total of 256 cells and 64 'base nodes'. The total number of nodes in this scenario would be: 4 (1st level nodes) + 4X4 (2nd level nodes) + 4X(4X4) (3rd level or 'base nodes') = 84 total nodes So, to begin, I create this grid, then create my nodes array (or arrays). Each node in the array would be composed of x,y,width,height (probably simpler to do the width, height calculation up front than simply using bounding points) At any given time there would be four 'base nodes' that would be considered 'nearest neighbours'..we need to check for and return the current plus 3 additional 'base nodes' depending on which one of four cells in the current 'base node' we're 'over' at any given time (this is easier to ilustrate on a sheet of graph paper). But the net result is that we are dealing with only 4 as opposed to 64(the entire grid) 'base nodes' or 16 vs 256 cells...a savings or reduction of 16X. So i guess what I'm asking is What is the best way to set up the node array(s)? (nested , associative, using objects, etc) and Given the current x,y coordinates of the draggable movieclip and the nodes array(s), how to perform the quadtrees calculaton?

i was wondering how to catch an error at top level.
So for example, somewhere deep down in my code I do throw new Error ("bla

and since i'm lazy i don't try to catch in the calling function (since it is
a.. runtime error or something :))...
Is there some way I can catch this error at the top level in my code.
I tried System.onStatus / System.onError but it does not work:)
