Re: [Flashcoders] Programmatically instantiating a class that extends MovieClip.
Hello :)
it's easy, you must use __proto__
AS2 - MyClass extend MovieClip !!!
MyClass extends MovieClip {
// o Constructor
public function MyClass() {
}
}
var mc = createEmptyMovieClip("myInstance", 1) ;
mc.__proto__ == MyClass.prototype ;
MyClass.call(mc) ;
EKA + :)
2006/6/29, Scott Hyndman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
That's exactly what I mean. As a result you can do cool things like
reparenting -- like moving a button from one window to another. It
handles the MovieClip creation itself.
A code example really isn't too easy, because the framework that
allows this to be possible is quite large. If you were really
interested, you could look at the code. Here's a link:
http://tinyurl.com/jqtwv
It's a gigantic class...so it might be difficult to work through. The
important method is createMovieClips(), which is called when a view
(the type of object that encapsulates movieclips) moves to a new
superview.

[Flashcoders] FLV or MP3 stops during tween
Hi there, first time on the list... I am working on a pretty intensive flash UI, which makes use of onEnterFrame events, Tween class animations, etc... and whenever I try to stream in an FLV or MP3, the playback completely stops after about 5-10 seconds. I can usually make it stop by rolling my mouse over a movieclip that uses a Tween to do an alpha fade. Has anyone had any experience troubleshooting this? I'm using Flash 8 and AS2... and am completely stumped at this point. I've tried both the mx.transitions.Tween and the ZigoTween engine, and they both bring the FLV to a halt. Thanks. -Dan ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Thing is, it's not a normal distribution - with many more of the icons appearing to the upper left (origin) of the stage...then spreading out in a random but decreasingly dense pattern across the stage.

For example, one of the conventions Rails uses to make things easier is their naming conventions, specifically, pluralization. You make your MySQL database tables plural, like comments.

You can manually override this at the top of your class and point it to the proper table in your database. This is the kind of flexibility and power that come with a well thought out framework.

RE: [Flashcoders] Programmatically instantiating a class that extendsMovieClip.
Well usually it would just be:
class SomeClass
{
public function SomeClass( timeline:MovieClip )
{
...
}
}
...
var s:SomeClass = new SomeClass( MyCanvasMC );
...
and then you just act on the timeline var.
I usually create a static method that takes parameters
and passes them to the class as it keeps it nice and clean:
class SomeClass
{
public static function createInstance( host:MovieClip,
name:String,
depth:Number,
a:Number, b:Object ) : SomeClass
{
var sc:SomeClass = host.attachMovie( "SomeClass", name, depth, { $a:
a, $b: b } );
return sc;
}
}
...
var sc:SomeClass = SomeClass.createInstance( this, "sc", 1, 120, obj );
Keeps all the crufty bits inside the class where it belongs.

Subject: [Flashcoders] trying to call a function passed as an argument
Hi all,
I have this method where I need to call a function passed as an argument
(kind of like in setInterval()) and I don't understand the documentation and
can't get it to work.
First of all, I don't understand how to pass the function as a parameter.
Am I passing a String or an actual Function object? Can I pass a Function
with parameters? Do I have to write the parentheses in the parameter?
Next, how do I call this function? The Function.call() function requires a
parameter but I don't get what it does...
Thanks for the help!

Re: RE: [SPAM?] RE: [Flashcoders] XPcomponents set
Thinking about it again, I think you're right on one point. There's certainly no reason that using their framework should break native Flash code. That's just sloppy. But, as it is a framework, I think it's totally legit that it makes you do certain things certain ways. I wouldn't say XPComponents _breaks_ native code...it just chooses not to use it, abstracting it away into an API that they designed themselves. In my opinion this is perfectly acceptable and maybe even desirable if additional functionality is provided as a result.

Re: [Flashcoders] Programmatically instantiating a class that extends MovieClip.
"Why not subclass object instead? Both ActionStep and ASwing work this way, then create movieclips on the fly. It's very nice to work with." So you never really subclass movieclip, you use composition instead. In other words, your class has a movieclip, but it isn't a movieclip.,, Is that what you mean, or am I missing the point? Can you give a small code example?

But, as it is a framework, I think it's totally legit that it makes you do certain things certain ways. "It's not like Rails makes other parts of Ruby break." Case in point - to use Rails, you must do things inn VERY specific ways. Rails is all about convention, and if you don't adhere to its conventions, you will be boned. To sum up, my point is that frameworks shouldn't break anything. But also that people should expect when using a framework that they might have to do things in certain ways.

Re: [Flashcoders] trying to call a function passed as an argument
You can't pass a reference to a method call like you seem to be trying to do by
'bar.doLast'. You *can* pass functions around, but not object methods -- they
no longer know what object they are supposed to act on.
See:
var a:Array = [1, 2, 3];
a.shift(); // a = [2, 3];
var shiftMethod:Function = a.shift;
shiftMethod(); // a still equals [2, 3] - this did nothing
One solution would be something like this:
public function doFirst(aString:String, aBarInstance:Bar,
aBarMethodName:String) {
trace("the first string is "+aString);
aBar["aBarMethodName"]();
}
This is pretty nasty, though. You should probably let us know what the effect
you are going for is so someone can suggest a better way, probably involving
either untangling these two objects or using mx.utils.Delegate.

It's not like Cake or Zend break parts of PHP. They don't force you to work in a specific way using only their components. They are extremely well thought out, flexible frameworks that help developers, not hinder them. Nobody is jumping up and down shouting how great XP Components is, but there's plenty of buzz about Rails and Cake and Zend. There is no good reason for XP components to not play nicely with anybody else. I think it's a poor framework because no matter how good it might be at what it does, what it does is limited. The primary reason it's not a good framework is that it's not flexible. It forces you to develop in a very specific way. It forces you to use only their components. If you don't, your apps don't work right. When new versions of Flash come out, and new code doesn't work, and you've invested all this time learning a framework that is so restrictive and inflexible, you will be the one who suffers, not them. They made their money off you already. > But I agree that they should make > their strategy clear on their site. Absolutely. Plenty of people purchase the XP components because 1) They look like really good components 2) It's not clear that you have to only use their components 3) It's entirely unclear that you also have to build your root movie with two frames, with one of their primary components loading in the rest of your application. Many developers buy components in the middle of a project because they need some kind of functionality and either MM's components are cutting it, or they're trying to save coding time. XP Components are NOT designed for that. They're designed to be used from the ground floor of an application, to be built entirely within the XP framework. Therefore, anyone who buys XP Components expecting them to HELP them in that situation is going to be extremely disappointed, and is going to be out $349. They just got scammed because they didn't take the time to read the insane amount of documentation you have to read to even find out these FACTS about the system. They think, how hard can it be to implement a component? I'll refer to the documentation after I purchase. Little do they know that if they only spent an hour or so reading documentation, they'd find out that these components are not actually components, but a very specific framework for developing applications. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

[Flashcoders] trying to call a function passed as an argument
Hi all,
I have this method where I need to call a function passed as an argument
(kind of like in setInterval()) and I don't understand the documentation and
can't get it to work.
First of all, I don't understand how to pass the function as a parameter.
Am I passing a String or an actual Function object? Can I pass a Function
with parameters? Do I have to write the parentheses in the parameter?
Next, how do I call this function? The Function.call() function requires a
parameter but I don't get what it does...
Thanks for the help!

Re: [SPAM?] RE: [Flashcoders] XPcomponents set
"that pretty much no one would buy their components if they knew ahead of time about this restriction" I think that's false. There are lots of people who are interested in using frameworks and using them completely. Making a viable frmaework that will integrate nicely with everyone in the world's swf is pretty much impossible. There are always tradeoffs: adopt the framework, you give some things up, but you get others. Depending on their needs, some people will make that trade, others won't. So I disagree with the point above. But I agree that they should make their strategy clear on their site.

[Flashcoders] How to japanese people embed fonts?
Hello, i have to get japanese characters into our application, but as i see it, there is no solution for this :( I found three ways embed a font, but every one has a big trap.. 1) Flash: create a new Font-symbol in the library. Problem: you can not define, which characters should be embeded (i want them all) 2) Flash: create a TextField on the stage, embed there the characters you need Problem: you can not give a name to the embeded font => you can not embed more then one style (big / italic / font size) because they come in conflict (they have all the same name) 3) swfmill: embed a font with the font-tag Problem: there is a Bug in swfmill, i only get 680 characters So now, there are so many japanese flashers, how do they do it? I often saw images instead of font in their flashes, but not always.

Re: [Flashcoders] [SOLVED]TextField PrintJob oddities

Of course, now I have to ensure that there's a suitable font embedded in any SWF that uses this class, but I guess you can't have it all.

[Flashcoders] TextField PrintJob oddities
I'm having an odd problem with a wrapper I've written for the PrintJob class. One of the methods of the wrapper, printString(), takes a string of arbitrary length and is *supposed* to print all of it, breaking it over pages as needed. It *almost* works, and I need some assistance figuring out where the real problem is. Here's how it works now: 1. start the printJob so we have access to pageWidth and pageHeight 2. create a temporary TextField with the dimensions of pageWidth and pageHeight, with multiline and wordWrap on, all other settings as default 3. put the string into the TextField 4. get the number of pages and number of lines per page by setting scroll=1 and checking bottomScroll and maxscroll 5. add enough newline padding to the end of the string so that the last page can scroll up high enough 5. for each page: a. set scroll = loopIndex * linesPerPage + 1 b. addPage( tempTextField ) 6. send the printJob to the printer Sound good? Good. Now, when I look at my temporary text field on screen, I see that, with my printer settings and default formatting, 50 lines are visible on screen at a time. *However* when I look at my printouts, I get 55 lines per page! (This is a problem because the code *thinks* only 50 lines fit on a page, so the pagination goes screwy.) Oh, and this happens even if I printAsBitmap. Is there an alternate approach I'm missing?

I somehow doubt he would sell his components if people knew ahead of time they weren't meant to be used stand-alone.

Since Flash STILL DOES NOT have it's own Dynamic Registration that developers have been begging for, I had to use a 3rd party solution. These Icons must scale from the Center Out, so a solution like this is absolutely required. If I try to access the new properties (some of those being _x2 and _y2) from within my ClassFile, they are unknown to the Class. If I try to access the properties from OUTSIDE of the Class, I am able to do so.

I'm currently using the instatiating procedure that involves this general code: FooClass(this.attachMovie(FooClass.pseudoSymbolName, 'fooInstance', this.getNextHighestDepth())); I've looked around and haven't found a tidier way to accomplish this kind of instantiating, so I presume it's not possible. Does anyone know differently? - pixelTwiddler, a.k.a.

Re: [Flashcoders] Help needed
you can draw a best fit curve through points created from the data to
get what you want, have a look on google for a class to do the best fit
stuff, i've seen one but don't remember where. shouldn't be too tricky...

RE: [Flashcoders] Preventing Compilation of components and source code
Add an xml exclude file for each swf you want classes excluded from. The xml file should be named [yourswfname]_exclude.xml e.g. You have an fla named nx_core.fla It imports a class com.nx.sdk.core.SomeClass but you will load it from another swf that exports it. You create an xml file called nx_core_exclude.xml and place it in the same dir as the fla. You place the following inside the xml file: Compile and check out the swf with ASV and you will see that the classes were not included. Now load you swf after the swf that contains the classes and everything works just dandy. regards ~neo -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lori Hutchek Sent: 29 June 2006 05:23 PM To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: [Flashcoders] Preventing Compilation of components and source code Hey All, I'm trying to build an application with distributed swf's, which contain components and have linkages to external source code files.

[Flashcoders] avoiding clipping with multiple dropshadows
Hi. I am running into a problem where I have many clips on stage whose filters property is set to a dropshadow obj instance I created. This whole movie is loaded into another fla movie that also applies a mask of the region where that movie plays. When the inner clips that have dropshadows apply tween it creates a clipping animation where a box appears around those clips. If I remove the dropshadows it works fine. If I keep the dropshadows and view the swf that I am loading into the containing fla, everything seems fine. It is only when I have my dropshadows applied and load it into a container that applies a mask clip to that movie that this clipping occurs. Has anyone ran into this sort of problem before?

Does anyone know any tutorials or references I can read up on how to do this? And can u tell me if what I'm suggesting is just crazy and impossible? You might want to look into compiled clips and SWCs (to avoid redundant compilations of a component during development), and shared libraries (to share components at run-time between multiple SWFs and reduce total bandwidth usage). Unfortunately, these techniques are relatively advanced topics and have historically been somewhat of a black art. In particular, they aren't terribly well-documented in the documentation or third-party literature and tend towards some idiosyncratic and unexpected behavior.

Re: [Flashcoders] color
Hey Jason,
The css is definitely loaded and the Flash text displays all of the styling
other than the bullets remaining black.
Here's my test code so you can verify I'm not missing something.
this.createTextField( "txtfld", 100, 10, 10, 300, 200 );
var t:TextField = this.txtfld;
t.html = true;
t.multiline = true;
var testCSS = new TextField.StyleSheet();
list = "item 1item 2item 3item
4item 5";
testCSS.load("example.css");
testCSS.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
t.styleSheet = testCSS;
t.text = list;
} else {
trace ( "css loading error" );
}
};
ul { color: #9A9CA6; font-weight: 900; font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;
display: block; }
li { color: #9A9CA6; font-weight: 900; font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;
display: block; }
Perhaps you could send me some sample code offlist?
Thanks, Adrian.

Re: [Flashcoders] simple xor crypting as 3.0

Actually, you may be able to do this in ActionScript 3.0 by passing your ByteArray back in through a Loader instance. This way, you should be able to at least decode a SWF embedding an FLV on the fly and pass it back through--though I don't know whether this is possible with a raw FLV file. You might want to check out the following entry from David Rorex's blog: http://blog.davr.org/2006/04/21/dynamic-sound-in-85/ Back in April, he managed to encode a Flash 8 SWF containing a sound into a Flash 9 SWF, decode it at run-time and pass it back in for playback as a initial experiment towards creating procedurally generated sound at run-time.

[Flashcoders] What is the error when LoadVars fails?
Hi everyone, I have a site that uses LoadVars. Currently, all the files except PHP files are hosted on server 1. The PHP files are on server 2. I did it this way because we have control over the permissions in server 2, and not server 1. I use this code: http://pastebin.ca/74723 and I published the swf file to access network only. With other classes in Flash there's a function onLoadError that returns an arg Error, in this case, it's just a Boolean. When both swf and PHP are in the same server, it works fine.

RE: [Flashcoders] Q:2 Way Comunication between classes
You've got yourself a cyclic dependency there.
I'm surprised it runs at all.
var a:FirstClass = new FirstClass();
// construction calls
--> FirstClass (which creates)
---> SecondClass (which creates)
> FirstClass (which creates)
--> SecondClass (which creates)
---> etc, etc, etc (which creates)
An object can never be a child
of itself in a container hierarchy.
I don't believe I've ever had a need
for something like this in 20 years
of programming.
Don't use new SomeClass, pass a reference
of each class to the other or if they
are instances of different classes
make them implement an interface and
pass that around or you will get cyclic
include issues.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Q:2 Way Comunication between classes
I have 2 menus systems that I need to establish communication between.
Each menu system is controlled by a class that uses EventDispatcher to keep
track of which button is currently selected.
The problem is when I try to establish 2 WAY communication between these 2
menu classes.
I can use composition to communicate ONE way, but when I try and reference
each class from the other, I get some pretty funky things happening! I think
its because its a many to many relationship...
//FIRST CLASS
//constructor
function FirstClass(){
var sc= new SecondClass()
}
//SECOND CLASS
//constructor
function SecondClass(){
var fd= new FirstClass()
}
Any suggestions appreciated!

Re: [Flashcoders] color
OK, this is bugging me now!
Chuck, you suggested using the following would work. Jason, you said it did.
I can't get it to work! The size and colour of the text between the 's
is affected but the bullets are still black. What am I missing?!
li {color: #9A9CA6;font-weight: 900;font-family: Arial;font-size:
16px;display: block}
I don't like being beaten by code!
Thanks in advance.

Re: [SPAM?] RE: [Flashcoders] XPcomponents set
Thanks for the information all. The same goes for us ofcourse, if we knew ahead of time that the components are required to be used in the framework we would have never bought them. One could say it's wrong of us to assume they'll just work stand-alone but if the author doesn't mention anything about the framework on his site we just assume it'll work stand-alone and don't conflict with other components or other frameworks. Imo that should be requirement number one for a good component set anyway. Maybe a scam is a harsh word since I'm sure the author put a lot of work in the components but you don't just forget to mention such a "huge" detail by accident. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
Re: [Flashcoders] Singleton issues with AS2 class ...
You're calling getInstance inside the constructor and getInstance is calling the constructor, thus infinitely calling getInstance. Also, getInstance needs to be static.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash and Javascript Communication Problem
John, I see your point! Both the server and the browser are changing when I upload. Currently I don't have access to there internal server, this is only a temporary situation. I think the way forward is to get the client to view it on our server (changing the browser and not the server ) and see where we go from there.

From the above, I'm not sure whether the browser has stayed the same when you've changed which server it came from. (Rephrased, if the client can see it from your server but not theirs, all on the same computer, in the same browser.) Another isolation test would be whether other browser/control communication works normally in the balking browser... if your client can view WWW pages which use ActiveX Scripting. If their browser never works then you'd look at the Microsoft permissions... I remember an IE/Win prefs tab for "Disable ActiveX Scripting", for instance. I'm not sure whether this is the case there, though. Changing one part of the problem at a time may be the fastest way to zoom in on the area of difference...? jd -- John Dowdell .
