Re: [FlashCoders] XRay _global tree

2006-09-06 Thread Dimitrios Bendilas


Hi John,

I'm using connector 1.6.1 and the 1.2.5 interface.

I just made a really simple example for you to test.
It doesn't have any classes, so no _global.com,
but I'm having the same issue with _level0, I can
only take a snapshot of _level0. If I type _level0.squares
(or select the movieclip squares from the _level0 tree) and then
press the snapshot button, it doesn't work.

You can download the files from
http://www.zefxis.gr/files/xray.zip

Thanks a lot!

Dimitrios

Hey Dimitrios, I'd have to take a look at the "why" - I'm not sure why
recursion isn't working for you or why you can start your search from
_global.com

let me know:

1.  what version of the interface you're using (are you using the latest
Flex version?)
2.  what version of connector

Is it possible to get a copy of your files for testing?  I'll sign 
whatever

NDA you've got

Thanks,

Hello,

I've just downloaded the latest version of Xray.

Why can't I take a snapshot of _global.com for example?
When I type _global.com and then press the snapshot button,
it reverts to _level0. Same thing happens with everything else,
like _global.com.zefxis.solarwind.applications.ActionManager.

So, I can only take snapshots from _global
or _level0, plus the recursive option doesn't always work.

Any clues? Couldn't find anything at the blitz help page.

RE: [Flashcoders] Changing the Volume of a loaded FLV

2006-09-06 Thread Darren Bowers

Karim,

Are you using the FLVPlayback component? If you are then you need to apply
the volume to the FLVPlayback Object not create a new sound object.

E.g.

my_FLVPlybk.volume = 0;

If not, then you need to create a new sound object and attach it to the MC
you want to adjust:

E.g.
var my_vol = 0;
var my_sound = new Sound();
my_sound.attachSound("some_mc_id");
my_sound.setVolume(my_vol);

Ya - maybe I did not state the problem well,

So, 

video_snd = new Sound( )
video_snd.volume = 0

changes the audio volume of the whole movie. I am having issues controlling
the levels of just the video.

I know that 

video_snd = new Sound( some_mc )
video_snd.volume = 0

Would change the volume of 'some_mc' only, this does not work with my flv
player.

any ideas why?

Re: [Flashcoders] weird class could not be loaded.

2006-09-06 Thread Hans Wichman

Hi,
it might be that you are using relative class paths.
If so, the fla will compile all right, but during syntax check, there is no
relative path to start from. You will need to add a full absolute classpath,
and it should go okay.

It happened to me as well.
Is the date&time of your computer screwed up ? Usually when flash compiles
classes, it saves them as .aso files. If the class file is actually older,
then he skips the compiling I think. Deleting the aso files should do the
trick.
That's the only explanation I could come up with.

RE: [Flashcoders] Changing the Volume of a loaded FLV

This works for me : 

var soundContainer_mc:MovieClip = 
this.createEmptyMovieClip("soundContainer_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
soundContainer_mc.attachAudio(this.netStream);
this.audio_sound= new Sound(soundContainer_mc);

Audio sound is a sound object. Hope it helps.

thanks!

Hi John,

I'm using connector 1.6.1 and the 1.2.5 interface.

I just made a really simple example for you to test.
It doesn't have any classes, so no _global.com,
but I'm having the same issue with _level0, I can
only take a snapshot of _level0. If I type _level0.squares
(or select the movieclip squares from the _level0 tree) and then
press the snapshot button, it doesn't work.

You can download the files from

Yeah, I remember now Hans!  I'll do some tests today/tonight and let you

I''m sorry Mark.  I should have looked closer. that's a different beast.

Hey Kurt,

Good to hear from you, too. I still have your old emails :)

Your menu would be useful to me if it allowed a cascade of full-width menu 
bars as in this gif:
http://www.dartfrogmedia.com/images/menuExample_MH060903a.gif 



It only needs to go three levels deep (as in the gif) but must highlight 
the selected menu items so the user can readily see the path to the 
current content.


Have you done any work on the menu that might lend itself to such an 
application?


Thanks and regards,

I know this should be searchable, but I'm really not finding what I need 
in the archives or Google.


I need to find or create a horizontal drop-down menu that expands up to 
three tiers high. Each tier is a differently-colored bar the full width 
of the stage and contains text links. Links change color on rollover. 
Bars descend on mouseclick, not on rollover. They have a smooth tweening 
motion, not just an instant drop-down. Clicked links retain their 
rollover color so that if a user gets to the third tier, there would be 
a highlighted link in each level showing the user what path they'd 
taken. This should be xml-based. I'm happy to pay for something that 
will save me a day's scripting, but it has to fit the above parameters 
or be easily adaptable.


Here's an example of the menu expanced to all three tiers:

use the displayObjects' function AddEventListener, like this:

this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,enterFrame);

and then have function

function enterFrame(e:Event){
}

dont forgot the e:Event parameter in enterFrame, it will cause an error if
you don't
include that. Also, read the API ref, it's over here:

http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/index.html

good luck,

[Flashcoders] Reliable local FLV stop event

2006-09-06 Thread Andreas R

I know this is an old question but i can't really seem to get a good 
grasp of it.


I have a client that loads FLVs locally off the machine it runs on. When 
movies stop, events get broadcasted. however sometimes the stop event i 
set up fails:


onStatus = function(info){
   switch(info.code){
   case "NetStream.Play.Start":
   stopped = false;
   break;
   case "NetStream.Buffer.Empty":
   if(stopped){
   broadcastMessage("onVideoComplete");
   }
   break;
   case "NetStream.Play.Stop":
   stopped = true;
   break;
   }
}

On tracing out info.code onStatus, i see that buffer.empty and 
buffer.full flicker on and off during playback, and that gets me 
worried. Sometimes Play.stop is called before the buffer has played out, 
but buffer.flush and buffer.empty right now seem so unreliable in terms 
of actually firing at the end of the FLV that i'm confused as to how to 
even approach this.


Anyone got a solid, sound solution?

Thanks,

- Andreas SJ

Hi,
i've been wondering myself, and up till now we have reverted to processing
the flv with a meta data injector (burak's) and checking the current flv
time against the duration to see if it has ended.

I know this is an old question but i can't really seem to get a good
grasp of it.

I have a client that loads FLVs locally off the machine it runs on. When
movies stop, events get broadcasted. however sometimes the stop event i
set up fails:

onStatus = function(info){
   switch(info.code){
   case "NetStream.Play.Start":
   stopped = false;
   break;
   case "NetStream.Buffer.Empty":
   if(stopped){
   broadcastMessage("onVideoComplete");
   }
   break;
   case "NetStream.Play.Stop":
   stopped = true;
   break;
   }
}

On tracing out info.code onStatus, i see that buffer.empty and
buffer.full flicker on and off during playback, and that gets me
worried. Sometimes Play.stop is called before the buffer has played out,
but buffer.flush and buffer.empty right now seem so unreliable in terms
of actually firing at the end of the FLV that i'm confused as to how to
even approach this.

Anyone got a solid, sound solution?

Thanks,

[Flashcoders] Synchronizing multiple flvs

2006-09-06 Thread Christopher Whiteford


I am looking to find out if anyone has experience in splitting an FLV into
multiple parts and then playing them back whereas the the timing is
seamless?

The reason I ask is I need to create a picture tile game which is easy
enough but the client came back with this where 15 tiles playing the same
flv broken into different pieces need to be unscrambled and the result would
be one big video.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

RE: [Flashcoders] Reliable local FLV stop event

2006-09-06 Thread Karina Steffens

Yes it's bizarre that there isn't an out-of-box solution for this. I came
across the same problem a while ago. The solution I came across was to check
if the play head is not moving while the movie is supposed to be still
playing (that is, not paused or stopped). 

For this you need to set a "lastCheck" property, which needs to be set to 0
every time you start a movie (but not from paused), or manually stop it, and
while the movie is playing, you need to keep checking it using an interval
or enterFrame event.

The function you need is this:

public function checkStatus(){
//_global.tt("checkStatus", movie_flv.playing,
movie_flv.playheadTime, lastCheck)
if (play_btn.selected && movie_flv.playheadTime &&
movie_flv.playheadTime == lastCheck){
stopMovie() 
}else{
lastCheck = movie_flv.playheadTime;
}   
}


To set the function into context, I pasted the entire class below.

It worked like a charm, but my class is using custom buttons and commands to
play the movie. I'm not sure how I'd integrate it with Adobe controller
components. For example, you might need to devise a different check instead
of play_btn.selected.

If the tiles were small enough this could be something you could do with
bitmapData - ie. Copying the image data from a master video (offstage)
into each of the tiles as it's played. Or you could just mask multiple
copies of the same flv, but I suspect there would be bigger overheads
with this technique.

[Flashcoders] Publish / Live Preview resize issue of custom component extending movieClip

2006-09-06 Thread Charles Parcell


uh!!  I am really at my wits end.  I have struggled with this hobbie
project for well over 6 months and seem to be getting no where!!! I ahve
read countless numbers of articles, documentation, etc. and seem to be even
more confused than when I started.

I believe that my biggest problem is that I have spent so much time on this
issue, and have read so many different posts, articals, etc. that I am not
sure that is factual and what is not. I think I have even gotten confused on
how basic functions actually works. ugh!!!

Could someone look over this code and tell be all the dumb crap I have done
and how I can fix it. Here is a list of the issues I am having and can not
seem to correct.

1) Live preview of the component scales correctly the very first time you
scale it. All other times it seems to be using the original component size
and adjusting it by the delta value of the scaling.

2) My text area during live preview 99% of the time does not appear.

3) When I Publish, the text within the component scales rather than being
the font size I indicate even though I am using autoSize.

4) A problem that occurs some times is that the Published version of the
component will be way way bigger than what live preview shows me.

5) If I scale up the component a good bit (perhaps by 400 pixels) the
dropshadow disapears.

Please please please, take a look at this class I have built and tell me all
the dumb things I have done.  The one things that I ask is that this
component continue to extend movieClip.

Many thanks
Charles

Re: [Flashcoders] Synchronizing multiple flvs

2006-09-06 Thread Chris Hill

But if you can copy BitmapData from a video (i don't see why not), then 
you definitely won't have synchronization issues. Plus this will 
alleviate production headaches of creating lots of tiny flvs. I don't 
see this as a huge overhead issue, either, as long as you're just 
blitting it. Great idea!

Re: [Flashcoders] Synchronizing multiple flvs

The display will be large, something around a 40-50 inch type so I would
figure to keep the quality of the video that we would be using quite large
files.

I thought about the masking of multiple flvs of the same, but given the size
requirements I think it would be a problem, thus why I am thinking the best
solution would be to synch the split files.

I was just fooling around with using a DisplacementMap filter to warp

time.  I wonder if a displacement map would be an option.

Sounds like a timing issue. You could supply a query string to the popup,
and in that page using javascript, write the object/embed statements using
that query string to get information in there. Or something like that.

.com/msfCongo/mainEng.html

As you can see the main interface is a map of Congo composed of pictures
and comments distributed to form the shape of the country.

What I want to do is something simillar (just with different sized
pictures and no comments) but with the underlaying shape changing to what I
want everytime the user enters the site. And the size and position of the
picture changing accordingly.

But the size of the pictures change too depending on the importance of
that picture in time.

It all should be calculated dinamically so I can change the underlaying
shape and also the pictures and each picture importance.

I dont know how to approach the problem, If I should be thinking about
areas and formulas or whatever or to try I different way to accomplish what
I want.

Thanks for any hint you can give me.

Thanks for the ideas.

I will give it a try on the BitmapData copy and the DisplacementMap filter

Yeah, bitmap data is y our best bet, as you only will be dealing with 
one video playback, and can basically create quadrants out of the video 
that replicate to your tile grid.


I saw an example of this somewhere, but I forget where it is now, sorry.

Re: [Flashcoders] (repost) Horizontal Drop-Down Menu (pleeeease don't flame me!)

2006-09-06 Thread Marc Hoffman


Hi Kurt,

I may well take you up on your offer. Is there a chance we could talk 
briefly by phone before you leave? I want to consider hiring you to 
do the menu, but need to clarify what would be involved to meet my 
specs. I also want you to know that the client needs to sign off on 
the nav design (though it's virtually the same as the site they 
wanted to look like), so unless this would be a really simple, 
low-cost job, I'd probably do a rough mockup pending client approval.


I'm also looking into a menu system described in "Flash Application 
Design Solutions: Flash Usability Handbook" (Friend of Ed), whose 
files are downloadable.


Vacation sounds nice :)

Thanks!

Hey Kurt,

Good to hear from you, too. I still have your old emails :)

Your menu would be useful to me if it allowed a cascade of 
full-width menu bars as in this gif:

It only needs to go three levels deep (as in the gif) but must 
highlight the selected menu items so the user can readily see the 
path to the current content.


Have you done any work on the menu that might lend itself to such 
an application?


Thanks and regards,

I know this should be searchable, but I'm really not finding what 
I need in the archives or Google.


I need to find or create a horizontal drop-down menu that expands 
up to three tiers high. Each tier is a differently-colored bar 
the full width of the stage and contains text links. Links change 
color on rollover. Bars descend on mouseclick, not on rollover. 
They have a smooth tweening motion, not just an instant 
drop-down. Clicked links retain their rollover color so that if a 
user gets to the third tier, there would be a highlighted link in 
each level showing the user what path they'd taken. This should 
be xml-based. I'm happy to pay for something that will save me a 
day's scripting, but it has to fit the above parameters or be easily adaptable.


Here's an example of the menu expanced to all three tiers:

Re: [Flashcoders] Reliable local FLV stop event

2006-09-06 Thread Dan Rogers

How are you creating the FLVs to begin with?  From what I can gather,  
the "NetStream.Play.Stop" issue seems to be related to how people  
create their FLV files.   For example, I recently created a bunch of  
FLVs via export from After Effects (using On2 VP6 codec), and the  
stop event works just fine- whether played locally or streamed from a  
server.


Does anyone have a solid answer as to why "NetStream.Play.Stop" fails  
under certain circumstances?

I know this is an old question but i can't really seem to get a  
good grasp of it.


I have a client that loads FLVs locally off the machine it runs on.  
When movies stop, events get broadcasted. however sometimes the  
stop event i set up fails:


onStatus = function(info){
   switch(info.code){
   case "NetStream.Play.Start":
   stopped = false;
   break;
   case "NetStream.Buffer.Empty":
   if(stopped){
   broadcastMessage("onVideoComplete");
   }
   break;
   case "NetStream.Play.Stop":
   stopped = true;
   break;
   }
}

On tracing out info.code onStatus, i see that buffer.empty and  
buffer.full flicker on and off during playback, and that gets me  
worried. Sometimes Play.stop is called before the buffer has played  
out, but buffer.flush and buffer.empty right now seem so unreliable  
in terms of actually firing at the end of the FLV that i'm confused  
as to how to even approach this.


Anyone got a solid, sound solution?

Re: [Flashcoders] Reliable local FLV stop event

2006-09-06 Thread Hans Wichman


Hi,
if I remember correctly, when using a streaming server, and a buffer of for
example 10 seconds, the NetStream.Play.Stop would trigger just fine 10
SECONDS BEFORE the actual end of the flv:)
So you end up waiting for an empty buffer after the stop event etc etc

Re: [Flashcoders] flip pages in as2 or the like

2006-09-06 Thread Matthias Dittgen


I have finished my pageflip class and it is working great in the
context of our customers webpage. My boss came back from his holidays
and he's usually a big fan of opensource, but when I asked for
permission to give away this piece of code, he was not so happy about
it. So I can't publish it at the moment, which is really sad for me,
too. :-(
I am going to discuss this topic further in my company in future, I promise.

[Flashcoders] Unsightly borders in MX components imported via swfmill

2006-09-06 Thread shawn allen


Hey folks,

I've finally gotten around to integrating MX components into my MTASC/ 
swfmill workflow. They seem to work fine, but all of the UI  
components that I attach have these hideous black borders around  
them. I'm unpacking MX's swc files using a python script I whipped up  
(which I can provide if anyone's interested), and my swfml file looks  
like this:













I'm then attaching the components using createClassObject():

var check:CheckBox = root.createClassObject(CheckBox, 'check',  
root.getNextHighestDepth());


Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks,

[Flashcoders] ComboBox,Depth,& Draw API - Bug?

2006-09-06 Thread Merrill, Jason

Is this a bug?  Try the sample code out below - 

Why is it that if you specify an explicit depth for a movie clip (SEE
LINE 2 OF THE FIRST SET OF CODE BELOW) and draw on it with the draw API,
and a comboBox made later with a depth of getNextHighestDepth() will
have a drop down which displays over the drawn portion of the movie clip
AS EXPECTED, but when you use getNextHighestDepth() on the movie clip
(SEE LINE 2 OF THE SECOND SET OF CODE BELOW), the comboBox's dropdown is
BEHIND the drawn portions of the clip, even though the depth of the clip
is greater??? 

So in other words, this:

//CODE SAMPLE #1
import mx.controls.ComboBox;
mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("triangle", 1);
mc.beginFill(0x00aaFF, 100);
mc.lineStyle(4, 0xFF, 100);
mc.moveTo(0, 0);
mc.lineTo(100, 100);
mc.lineTo(0, 100);
mc.lineTo(0, 0);
this.createClassObject(mx.controls.ComboBox, "my_cb",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
for (i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
my_cb.addItem({label:i});
}
trace("mc depth: "+mc.getDepth());
trace("my_cb. depth: "+my_cb.getDepth());  
//cb depth is higher than "mc" as expected

Vs. this:
  
//CODE SAMPLE #2 (only diff. from CODE 1 is line 2)
import mx.controls.ComboBox;
mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("triangle", this.getNextHighestDepth());
mc.beginFill(0x00aaFF, 100);
mc.lineStyle(4, 0xFF, 100);
mc.moveTo(0, 0);
mc.lineTo(100, 100);
mc.lineTo(0, 100);
mc.lineTo(0, 0);
this.createClassObject(mx.controls.ComboBox, "my_cb",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
for (i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
my_cb.addItem({label:i});
}
trace("mc depth: "+mc.getDepth());
trace("my_cb. depth: "+my_cb.getDepth());  
//cb depth is higher than "mc" as expected, 
//yet drop down is drawn BEHIND "mc"!

Is this a bug with ComboBox?  Is there any way to get the comboBox's
dropdown in front of drawn content on "mc" while using
getNextHighestDepth() for "mc"?

RE: [Flashcoders] ComboBox,Depth,& Draw API - Bug?

2006-09-06 Thread Pete Miller

Try tracing the value that you get from getNextHighestDepth().  If the
result is > 1048575, you are incorporating v2.0 components, which causes
getNextHighestDepth() to be less than useful.  Use DepthManager instead.

This pointer isn't entirely related, but might help explaining why:

RE: [Flashcoders] ComboBox,Depth,& Draw API - Bug?

2006-09-06 Thread Merrill, Jason

Thanks Pete - that looks indeed to be the issue. I am using the V2
ComboBox and the depth is above that number.  I'll try out
mx.managers.DepthManager.kTop or mx.managers.DepthManager.kTopmost and
see if I can get it to work.  Thanks for the link.

Basically, I have a comboBox above a colorPicker movieClip I made with
lineTo functions, and the dropdown appears below the colorPicker even
though the depth of the ComboBox is higher.

[Flashcoders] Flv's playing in a projector from usb drive

2006-09-06 Thread Kent Haynes

Found out some more on this maybe.  It appears that the issue might be
related to the usb drive being formatted FAT32 instead of NTFS.  We
tried a local partition formatted in FAT32 and got the same results.
Any known issues of this kind?
 
thanks

RE: [Flashcoders] ComboBox,Depth,& Draw API - Bug?

2006-09-06 Thread Merrill, Jason

Hmm... I have been playing with the DepthManager class, alternatively
trying:

my_cb = DepthManager.createClassObjectAtDepth(mx.controls.ComboBox,
DepthManager.kCursor);

and setting the drawn on mc to HighestDepth

or creating the ComboBox at usual depth and setting the depth of the
movieClip being drawn on to DepthManager.kCursor and other static depths
of the DepthManager class, with no luck.  I can create the class object,
but it still remains behind the drawn on movie clips.

Any ideas?

 Subject: [Flashcoders] ComboBox,Depth,& Draw API - Bug?

 Is this a bug?  Try the sample code out below -

 Why is it that if you specify an explicit depth for a movie clip
(SEE
 LINE 2 OF THE FIRST SET OF CODE BELOW) and draw on it with the draw
>>API,
 and a comboBox made later with a depth of getNextHighestDepth()
will
 have a drop down which displays over the drawn portion of the movie
>>clip
 AS EXPECTED, but when you use getNextHighestDepth() on the movie
clip
 (SEE LINE 2 OF THE SECOND SET OF CODE BELOW), the comboBox's
dropdown
>>is
 BEHIND the drawn portions of the clip, even though the depth of the
>>clip
 is greater???

 So in other words, this:

 //CODE SAMPLE #1
 import mx.controls.ComboBox;
 mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("triangle", 1);
 mc.beginFill(0x00aaFF, 100);
 mc.lineStyle(4, 0xFF, 100);
 mc.moveTo(0, 0);
 mc.lineTo(100, 100);
 mc.lineTo(0, 100);
 mc.lineTo(0, 0);
 this.createClassObject(mx.controls.ComboBox, "my_cb",
 this.getNextHighestDepth());
 for (i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
my_cb.addItem({label:i});
 }
 trace("mc depth: "+mc.getDepth());
 trace("my_cb. depth: "+my_cb.getDepth());
 //cb depth is higher than "mc" as expected

 Vs. this:

 //CODE SAMPLE #2 (only diff. from CODE 1 is line 2)
 import mx.controls.ComboBox;
 mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("triangle",
>>this.getNextHighestDepth());
 mc.beginFill(0x00aaFF, 100);
 mc.lineStyle(4, 0xFF, 100);
 mc.moveTo(0, 0);
 mc.lineTo(100, 100);
 mc.lineTo(0, 100);
 mc.lineTo(0, 0);
 this.createClassObject(mx.controls.ComboBox, "my_cb",
 this.getNextHighestDepth());
 for (i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
my_cb.addItem({label:i});
 }
 trace("mc depth: "+mc.getDepth());
 trace("my_cb. depth: "+my_cb.getDepth());
 //cb depth is higher than "mc" as expected,
 //yet drop down is drawn BEHIND "mc"!

 Is this a bug with ComboBox?  Is there any way to get the
comboBox's
 dropdown in front of drawn content on "mc" while using
 getNextHighestDepth() for "mc"?

RE: [Flashcoders] Publish / Live Preview resize issue of customcomponent extending movieClip

2006-09-06 Thread Palmer, Jim

wow,

I struggled with this as well.
I have this working for all my custom components, albeit it is tough as heck to 
get just right.
I have basic: class XX extends MovieClip {...} 
I have a clear seperation of the constructor and an init() function like you 
have. The init function is what draws the actual component.
The reason your text changes size is because it's changing the scale of the 
live-preview movie. You need to add to the actionscript of the livepreview .fla 
the following:

obj = new Object ();
obj.onResize = function () {
MCREFERENCE.__width = Stage.width;
MCREFERENCE.__height = Stage.height;
MCREFERENCE.init();
// or try your .draw() function in here.
}
Stage.addListener (obj);

The "MCREFERENCE" is basically the empty MC that is the reference to itself 
when a live-preview is instantiate in the stage. This is confusing as heck, but 
it's how you can control the live-preview component on the stage. The __width 
and __height are the dimensions to use when redrawing via init(). I use this 
instead of _width/_height because of sizing issues when I use the draw 
functionality.

You basically need to completely redraw the entire live preview MC in the 
init() function. I call all sorts of .clear() and .unloadMovieClip() functions 
depending on how complex this MC is for every call to the init() function.

If your text is disappearing all the time - try using a device font instead of 
embedded font?

This is a bit of a rough answer to your questions - but there is so much to 
explain here.

It's not huge  3.9 MB.

But we've just discovered some more info.  It's definitely related to
the FAT32 file system.  We formatted two partitions on the drive one
NTFS and another FAT32 and sure enough the NTFS plays fine FAT32 doesn't
play.  So I was looking for weird characters in the path.  Nothing out
of the ordinary. Path + name = english/flv/Classroom.flv  I also tried
english\flv\Classroom.flv to no avail.

None of our package structures are deep at all.

Re: [Flashcoders] Publish / Live Preview resize issue of customcomponent extending movieClip

2006-09-06 Thread Muzak

LivePreview calls a setSize() method when scaling occurs on stage.
So you'll have to add that to your class.

To demonstrate, create a MovieClip with a 100x100 square in it, attach the 
following class.

class SetSizeComp extends MovieClip {
 function SetSizeComp() {
  trace("SetSizeComp ::: CONSTRUCTOR");
 }
 function setSize(w:Number, h:Number) {
  trace("SetSizeComp ::: setSize");
  trace("- w: "+w);
  trace("- h: "+h);
 }
}

Right click the movieclip in library and select 'Convert to Compiled Clip'.
Resize the instance on stage and see what happens ;-)
You'll notice setSize is invoked, even though it's not being called anywhere 
inside the class.

Here's a basic skeleton I use for components:
(I actually have an app that generates this on the fly)


class CustomComponent extends MovieClip {
 // private (internal) properties
 private var __width:Number;
 private var __height:Number;
 ///
 // CONSTRUCTOR
 ///
 function CustomComponent() {
  trace("CustomComponent ::: CONSTRUCTOR");
  this.tabEnabled = this.tabChildren = this._focusrect=false;
  this.__width = this._width;
  this.__height = this._height;
  this._xscale = this._yscale=100;
  this.init();
 }
 ///
 // PRIVATE METHODS
 ///
 
//--
 // init()
 
//--
 private function init():Void {
  trace("CustomComponent ::: init");
  this.createChildren();
 }
 
//--
 // createChildren()
 
//--
 private function createChildren():Void {
  trace("CustomComponent ::: createChildren");
  this.draw();
 }
 
//--
 // draw()
 
//--
 private function draw():Void {
  trace("CustomComponent ::: draw");
  this.size();
 }
 
//--
 // size()
 
//--
 private function size():Void {
  trace("CustomComponent ::: size");
  var w:Number = this.__width;
  var h:Number = this.__height;
  // do actuall sizing here
 }
 ///
 // PUBLIC METHODS
 ///
 
//--
 // setSize()
 
//--
 public function setSize(w:Number, h:Number):Void {
  trace("CustomComponent ::: setSize");
  this.__width = w;
  this.__height = h;
  this.redraw();
 }
 
//--
 // redraw()
 
//--
 public function redraw():Void {
  trace("CustomComponent ::: redraw");
  // remove whatever needs to be redrawn here
  // which is done in the 'draw' method
  this.draw();
 }
}


Also:
class com.camber.component.Balloon extends movieClip

should be:
class com.camber.component.Balloon extends MovieClip

Problem 3 and 4 are probably because you're not removing the scaling that took 
place on stage (see constructor in my sample code).
So the first thing you need to do is grab the current _width and _height, then 
set _xscale and _yscale to 100 to remove scaling that 
took place on stage. And later on in the size() method use the stored _width 
(__width) and _height (__height) to layout the 
component.

hth,
Muzak
