[Flashcoders] hello, and interval management question

2006-10-15 Thread Øyvind Nordhagen

Hello, Giles!

It strikes me that what you have planned is somewhat inefficient. Am  
I right in suspecting that you need the intervals to keep checking  
for conditions and the running code accordingly? If so, have you  
explored the AsBroadcaster. I'm not sure I understand the purpose of  
your application fully through...

Re: [Flashcoders] Font color in datagrid component

2006-10-15 Thread nelson ramirez

The DataGrid component implements the List component. So you need to set the
style for List.

if (_global.styles.List == undefined) {
   _global.styles.List = new CSSStyleDeclaration();
}
_global.styles.List.setStyle("color", 0xFF);

I'm trying to make the color of text white in a datagrid. it doesn't
seem to be working, though. The text looks dark blue against a black

of black and grey, the column labels stay white.

I googled but couln't find anything helpful...

import mx.styles.CSSStyleDeclaration;
if (_global.styles.DataGrid == undefined) {
_global.styles.DataGrid = new CSSStyleDeclaration();

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash Classes and Preloading ...

2006-10-15 Thread Anthony Lee

Stephen,

Don't know about the Flash IDE, but MTASC can do this for you. I posted 
a similar question to osflash.org, here's the thread:

http://www.osflash.org/pipermail/osflash_osflash.org/2006-July/009853.html

The short answer is compile your main Classes into a later frame of a 
SWF that already contains you preloader Class on frame one.

Thanks Alain,
 
I have used that technique before, but surely there must be another way without 
using multiple SWFs ?
 
I am trying to keep everything together in one FLA file.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash Classes and Preloading ...

2006-10-15 Thread Alain Rousseau

Hi Stephen,

The best way to use a preloader is to put it in a different swf movie 
that loads the one you wish to preload, that way you'll be sure it will 
load correctly.

The problem is that when testing my movie, nothing appears onscreen until about

before anything else).

You can select what frame of a movie to load your classes on, but what if you 
want to load all classes (except one class - in this case the Preloaded class) 
later than the first frame ??? so that your preloader is working straight away 
???

Re: [Flashcoders] Casting external SWF's

2006-10-15 Thread Muzak
Create a wrapper class that extends MovieClip in your main app that will handle 
the loading of the external swf's (into a sub 
movieclip of the wrapper)

// pseudo code
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class SWFLoader extends MovieClip {
 //
 private var holder_mc:MovieClip;
 private var loader_mcl:MovieClipLoader;
 //
 function SWFLoader() {
  trace("SWFLoader ::: CONSTRUCTOR");
  this.loader_mcl = new MovieClipLoader();
  this.loader_mcl.addListener(this);
  this.createEmptyMovieClip("holder_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
  this.loader_mcl.loadClip("external.swf", this.holder_mc);
 }
 //
 private function onLoadInit(_mc:MovieClip):Void {
  trace("SWFLoader ::: onLoadInit");
  // listen for "frameReached" event, dispatched by external swf
  _mc.addEventListener("frameReached", Delegate.create(this, 
this.frameReachedHandler));
 }
 //
 private function frameReachedHandler(o:Object):Void {
  trace("SWFLoader ::: frameReachedHandler");
  trace("- frame reached: "+o.frame);
  // do something here depending on which frame has been reached
  // or dispatch an event to listeners
 }
}

// end pseudo code

Then in the external swf, decorate it with EventDispatcher.

// frame 1 - main timeline of external swf
import mx.events.EventDispatcher;
EventDispatcher.initialize(this);

// some other frame in external swf
// dispatch event to listener
this.dispatchEvent({type:"frameReached", frame:this.__currentframe});


It's quick and dirty, but gets the job done ;-)
Part from adding the EventDispatcher stuff in the animation swf's you don't 
have to change them.
And in your main app you still get to work in a clean way, using a Class and 
event dispatching.

Muzak

[Flashcoders] Casting external SWF's

2006-10-15 Thread Glen Pike

Hi,

   I am working on a project where I have been supplied a number of 
animation scenes in separate SWF's due to the size of the finished 
animations. 
  
All the animation in the SWF's is on the root timeline and some of it is 
in separate scenes :(


   In order to sequence the animations, I am preloading these SWF's 
into a shell application then playing them in order
   I need to be able to detect when certain frames are reached inside 
these animations in order to fire off various events - like playing the 
next one, etc.


   Rather than extend the functionality of MovieClip by adding to the 
prototype - the AS1 way - is there a better way of gaining some control 
over these clips?


   I would love to cast them as a subclass of movieclip which 
dispatches events and can play backwards forwards, etc. but as I am 
dealing with the root timeline, I guess I cannot cast the MovieClip 
object as something with extra functionality?


   I have the FLA's so at worst, I could move all the frames from the 
root timeline into a clip linked to my subclass, but as there are a lot 
of scenes, this is not a desired course of action.


   Thanks for your help

   Glen

Re: [Flashcoders] Global sound control ...

2006-10-15 Thread Paul Neave

The best way to turn sounds off isn't to use stopAllSounds() as that
will only stop the sounds at that moment, not mute them permanently.

If you're using timeline-based code, you can do this:

s = new Sound(_root);
s.setVolume(0);

and to un-mute the sound:

s.setVolume(100);

Simple. Of course, it uses _root (which is evil) but I think this is
forgivable in this instance.

Best,
Paul.

I have an interactive demo that consists of one main SWF file that loads in 
other SWF files depending on what the user clicks on in the main SWFs 
navigation.

Within this main SWF and within all the seperate SWFs are numerous movies each 
with their own timeline doing it's own thing.

In numerous place on timelines throughout this set of SWFs, sound effects have 
been hardcoded onto their respective timeline (i.e: not loaded dynamically 
using the sound object).

So is there any way to turn off sound globally regardless of where it's located 
on whatever timeline within whatever SWF. So I can just create an on/off button 
for the main SWF that will control sound globally ???

[Flashcoders] Font color in datagrid component

2006-10-15 Thread Carl Welch

I'm trying to make the color of text white in a datagrid. it doesn't
seem to be working, though. The text looks dark blue against a black
background. Also is it possible to change the color of the top part of
the datagrid. Even though I have the cells set to an alternating color
of black and grey, the column labels stay white.

I googled but couln't find anything helpful...

import mx.styles.CSSStyleDeclaration;
if (_global.styles.DataGrid == undefined) {
_global.styles.DataGrid = new CSSStyleDeclaration();
}
_global.styles.DataGrid.setStyle("alternatingRowColors", [0x00, 0x0B0B0B]);
_global.styles.DataGrid.setStyle("color ", 0xFF);
_global.styles.DataGrid.setStyle("themeColor", "haloBlue");
_global.styles.DataGrid.setStyle("borderStyle", "solid");
_global.styles.DataGrid.setStyle("borderColor", 0x66);


Thanks...

Re: [Flashcoders] hello, and interval management question

2006-10-15 Thread Janis Radins

yes you can pass that interval ID
you can do something like this:
var intContainer:Object = new Object();
intContainer.interval = setInterval(someFun, 50, intContainer);

in this case intContainer will be to first argument of that functon and
you'll be able to refference it anytime as arguments[0].interval

2006/10/15, Giles Bowkett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:


Hi, I'm mainly a coder, with some experience on the arts side as well.
I've got a site where I need to be able to set and clear a bunch of
intervals dynamically. It's a visualization application which involves
node-link graphs with a potentially large number of nodes, and in
which you can generate new graphs by exploring particular nodes.
Various animations and things will have to happen, and one use of the
application could conceivably involve hundreds of intervals being set
and cleared. I need to be able to manage fade-outs, fade-ins, and
movement for all these different nodes without any of the interval
clearing or setting obliterating pre-existing intervals used in
different functions.

I've been reading various books and googling for a while and I really
just haven't found any sophisticated technique for doing what I want
to do.

There are limitations, too. The system is a prototype and has to be
finished very quickly. It's not object-oriented, it's in AS 2, and
I've probably made a number of hideous mistakes as my prior experience
is generally limited to bit101 tutorials and Jared Tarbell style art
experiments.

My question is, is there a way to pass an interval to the function
you're calling within setInterval? Should I create a NodeFader class
and pass it the interval?

nodefader = new NodeFader() ;
nodefader.interval = setInterval(nodefader, 50, node_to_fade) ;

Something like that?

My second question is, did I just answer my first question in the
process of asking it?

Hey Guys,
I'm working on duplicating the zoom function for the Flash Player via
fscommand calls.  Using an fscommand call to flashplayerobject.Zoom
(50) works as expected, it zooms in.  However, it always zooms to the
center of the swf.  If you use the contextual right click menu to
Zoom, it zooms to an area surrounding your cursor.  I'd like to be
able to do this with fscommand.  Any ideas?  Using ZoomRect seems to
disable the panning ability of the flash player, essentially locking
your view to the rectangle.

Tyson
