[Flashcoders] Flashcoders Digest, Vol 23, Issue 19
I'm creating a tile designer.

Can you let me know how snappy those thumbnails get loaded for you? Try it in Firefox and IE. Secondly.

[Flashcoders] FLV video and How did they do it?
Hi Coders, There is an option on the Video2brain's FLV player ( http://www.video2brain.com/videoplayer.cfm?video_id=1631) that when you click on a icon on the player as shown on the pic below the video's quality changes.It smthing like antializing is turned off or on. I think it's smthing with the FLV itself but could not figured out Anybody know how did they achieved it or did they used some software(Sorenson) for creating the FLV instead of Macromedia Video Encoder.

Re: [Flashcoders] RE: Class seemingly left out of compile
Really must be coming in from somewhere else. Shared library? It's not a cached version of either/both the .swfs that you're testing in a browser or anything like that? Copy it all (without the .swfs) to a new folder or new machine, and try a rebuild - if you still get the same behaviour, something is clearly still compiling the old version somewhere.

[Flashcoders] UIObject/UIComponent: Getting started

But I have been looking at the UIObject and UIComponents and wondering if subclassing them would be a better move. So: * Do you recommend these for this kind of development, or are they best for straight up component development? Is the extra overhead/learning curve worth it? * Does anyone have any Flash 8 tutorials they'd recommend?

Re: [Flashcoders] UIObject/UIComponent: Getting started
I've tried both ways, and generally prefer to subclass MovieClip. Both approaches do have their advantages, though, at least in AS 1.0 and 2.0. But in AS3.0, there's no benefit at all to the composition method. You can declare new movie clips without attaching them to any timeline--they just exist as normal objects in memory until you add them as a child of some other clip.

Not sure why you'd need to pass parameters, since the context menu is
established by your code and doesn't allow sub-menus (from what I've
read). Whatever parameter you need to pass, I assume it's a result of
something else happening in the movie, so why not store it in a
variable in the movie and then access it as part of the function
_test? If the parameter varies depending where the user right-clicks,
you'd need a new context menu for that area of the stage, or you
could evaluate where the mouse cursor is and use that to generate the
parameter. If you need variations on the function from a single
context menu, just create more custom items (up to 15 are allowed).
Or am I missing something?

You should download the JSFL documentation file.

I did.
Here's a taste of the functions that handle it.
Check my blog for the entire script where I am creating templates.

var doc = fl.getDocumentDOM();
function saveFile(s) {
var fPath = getRelativePath() + s + .fla;
fl.saveDocument(doc, fPath);

Re: [Flashcoders] flash applicatin and database
You'll want to consider something along the lines of Flash Remoting for such a project. When choosing a remoting option, price and platform are the key components to consider. Consider these two options: - macromedia\adobe flash remoting (.net\iis) costs cash - amfphp (linux,php) \ free and easy good luck! -lincoln On Dec 8, 2006, at 9:20 PM, Nehal Gandhi wrote: Hey, I need help for deciding the architect for project which is an application Application would get installed on win/mac , standalone/network scenario.

Has any one worked on such kind of project? Can anyone guide?

Re: [Flashcoders] Flashcoders - Flashcomm
Dennis, The Flashcomm list has been back up since Nov 1. My guess is that you need to resubscribe. I think the corruption that brought the list down resulted in the subscriber list being lost. I am guessing that because there has been very low traffic since it came back up. The following link has some details from Dave Watts about what brought the list down: http://blog.owenvandijk.nl/2006/09/flashcomm_updat.html You can resubscribe here: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcomm btw ... while the Flashcomm list was down I got onto another list, the Flash Media List. It currently remains busier than the revived Flashcomm list. Plus most of the high level specialists are now on the Flash Media List, including some Adobe employees and product managers. You can subscribe to the Flash Media List here: http://www.flashcomguru.com/flashmedialist/ hth, g On 12/8/06, Dennis - I Sioux [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey, Was just wondering if anyone knew any news about the fixing of the flashcoders Flashcomm list (believe it was a database problem).

Re: [Flashcoders] :: anyone passed flash 8 certification exam?::
arin, i recently sat and passed the Flash 8 Certification exam. i had previously passed the Developer cert for both Flash MX and MX 2004. i had never sat the Designer cert. my impression is that the Flash 8 Certification exam IS a Developer exam. my guess is that to pass the Flash 8 certification, you have to know ActionScript. mind you, when you sit the exam you might end up with a completely different set of questions. my guess is that they have hundreds of questions, of which you will have to answer 70. passing grade is 70%, meaning you have to get 49+ correct to pass. and you have 75 minutes to complete the exam. yeah, the test prep materials for the Flash 8 Cert suck. but ... here are some things you definitely should do: -- sample questions that download with the PDF at Adobe.com with the info about the Flash 8 exam http://partners.adobe.com/public/en/ace/ACE_Exam_Guide_Flash_8.pdf -- sample question that download with the PDF at Adobe.com with the info about the Flash MX 2004 Developer exam www.adobe.com/support/training/certified_professional_program/flmx2004_dev_sample.pdf -- sample question that download with the PDF at Adobe.com with the info about the Flash MX 2004 Designer exam www.adobe.com/support/training/certified_professional_program/flmx2004_des_sample.pdf -- know what is new with Flash 8. there are 1 hour of training videos on F8 new features here: http://movielibrary.lynda.com/html/modPage.asp?ID=170 and you can get a 24 hour free pass here: http://www.lynda.com/freepass/24 beyond that, you can use some MX 2004 Developer study guide materials. tom kitta created a sample exam and put up a ton of his notes. you can find links to both here: http://www.tomkitta.com/flash/index.cfm and you can still get the MX 2004 Developer study guide book: http://www.amazon.com/Macromedia-Flash-Certified-Developer-Study/dp/0321256026/ as i said earlier, you might end up with completely different questions than I did. following are 3 topics that I saw more than 1 question on: -- LoadVars -- Font outline embedding. defaults for static text, dynamic text, input text. etc. -- Video. Video class. import formats supported. -- Audio. Sound class. import formats supported. one surprise for me was no questions related to components. v2 or otherwise. none. nada. there were non-ActionScript questions. some related to the IDE. so maybe those came in from the Designer cert, or maybe not. things like publish profiles, bandwidth profiler, etc. one last bit of advice, if you can afford to take it twice, the best way to find out what is on the exam is to take it. you definitely have to prep for the first time that you take the exam. in the event that you don't pass on the first go, you have to know enough to know what you didn't know. if that makes sense. so if you can afford the risk of taking the test a second time don't over agonize about it. prep, go, if you pass the first time excellent. if not, likely you will know exactly what you need to study up on to pass it with flying colors the second time around. i hope this helps. please post back about your experience after you take the exam. and anyone else who has taken the exam. please post your impressions too. best of luck!

Unlike previous flash certifications, in flash 8 they have combined the designer and developer and made it as one,its ridiculous! As a hardcore actionscripter I would have loved to skip the graphic designing part.Sigh!Also there is no clear cut blueprint from adobe for flash 8 cert exam. Any help in this regard is highly appreciated. regards, Arin - Have a burning question? Go to Yahoo!
