[Flashcoders] MXP installation in Flash CS3

2007-04-20 Thread Gregory N

Hi all,

A client of mine has recently reported that he has problems installing MXP
package in Flash CS3.

I haven't upgraded to CS3 yet, so I'd appreciate if someone can confirm or
deny:
1) mxp still can work for CS3 (with Extension manager, of course)
2) content goes as it used in Flash 8:
components - in $flash/Components
classes - in $flash/Classes
help - in $flash/HelpPanel/Help
3) Has $flash path changed sighnifically in Flash CS3?

To answer above questions, you just need to install any mxp from Adobe
exchange.

While I do understand that it is (with probability of 90%) just a client
can't see the obvious thing issue, but just to be sure.

Thanks in advance.

[Flashcoders] swfs taxing some browsers more than others?

2007-04-20 Thread nik crosina

Hi,

I am testing one of the sites I am working on at the moment for
browser compatibility and to ensure that all swfs (of which there are
many) play back fine and it turns out that there are significant
differences:

FireFox: 100% CPU usage
Opera: 75% CPU usage
IE Explorer (v6): 65% CPU usage

Has anyone got an idea why this is, and where to find out more about
these differences. Is there also a place that could offer comparisons
for all major browsers, as there are some I want to but can't test for
(notably the Mac varieties)

Thanks!

Re: [Flashcoders] MXP installation in Flash CS3

2007-04-20 Thread Muzak
No problems here so far. ExtensionManager works fine.

 components - in $flash/Components
 classes - in $flash/Classes
 help - in $flash/HelpPanel/Help

Those haven't changed.

The only thing that changed is they're now in an Adobe directory rather than in 
a Macromedia dir.
e.g.
...\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash 8\en\Configuration\Classes
 has become:
...\Application Data\Adobe\Flash CS3\en\Configuration\Classes

But since $flash always points to the Configuration directory it doesn't 
matter.

I have several AS2 components installed and a few Panels (WindowSWF).
Panels written in AS2 still work in FCS3.

When you have FCS3 installed alongside F8 and open the Extension Manager, it 
will list all the installed F8 extensions in the FCS3 
window, but unchecked in the Extension Manager. You can simply enable them 
and they'll get copied from the F8 install to the FCS3 
install.
So if you have alot of F8 extensions that you want to re-use in FCS3, don't 
uninstall F8 untill after you installed FCS3 (and 
enabled the necessary extensions).

The components panel will list/show different extensions depending on which 
type of document is currently open.
FCS3 has 2 types of FLA documents:
- Actionscript 2.0
- Actionscript 3.0

Components written for AS2 will only show up in the components panel if you 
have an AS2 FLA document open.

Muzak

Re: [Flashcoders] swfs taxing some browsers more than others?

2007-04-20 Thread 2lakes

Hi,
My tests on a mac show that Safari,  Firefox and Flock all pretty  
well consume similar amounts of CPU.

With an average difference between the three of 10%
This figure is not reliable because the CPU fluctuated +/- 5%  
throughout the tests.


My results averaged.
Firefox 37%
Safari 42%
Flock  39%

These percentages are of the total CPU so they are a lot smaller than  
Nick's

If i look at Users graph only they look like Nicks figures ( ie 82% av )
there was always at least 50 to 60 percent idle and the rest reserved.

Anyway i found the variations between the browsers negligible.
BUT flash certainly draws a lot of CPU compared to static HTML which  
is about 0.4% of

[Flashcoders] Flash 9 Alpha Preview TextInput Weirdness

2007-04-20 Thread Petro Bochan
Hi,

Though it's way too late to post this kind of message since Flash CS3 is
pretty much out but anyways. Try to initialize this chunk of code in the
alpha preview:

package {

import flash.display.Sprite;
import mx.controls.TextInput;

public class Test extends Sprite {

public function Test() {
var vTextInput:TextInput = new TextInput();
}
}
}

You'll likely get this:

**Error** D:\{path}\Test.as : Line 9, Column 19 : [Compiler] Error
#1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: TextInput.
var vTextInput:TextInput = new TextInput();
**Error** D:\{path}\Test.as : Line 9, Column 35 : [Compiler] Error
#1180: Call to a possibly undefined method TextInput.
var vTextInput:TextInput = new TextInput();
**Error** D:\{path}\Test.as : Line 4, Column 21 : [Compiler] Error
#1172: Definition mx.controls:TextInput could not be found.
import mx.controls.TextInput;
ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable
Timeline0_d5d529a7787d74f90f259f8632b8b7 is not defined.

Flex 2 compiles this with no troubles. It turns out that for some
unknown reason the alpha release can't read the mx.controls.* package.

Cheers,
Petro

[Flashcoders] setInterval woes

2007-04-20 Thread Michael King

Hey all,

Some of you may remember my problems with visually mapping streaming data
before.  I ended up needing them as separate clips to provide individual
roll-over support with the ability to add links in a future revision.

Well, now that I have it performing better, I'm breaking down the
information into intervals of 1 minute bursts.  What I'm trying to do is
use setInterval to have it pull the data once per minute.

The problem is, when I use setInterval as documented, it waits the first
minute, does its thing, but then it ignores the interval after that,
pulling the data every time that frame comes up.


Here's the relevant bit of code:

function intervalLoop() {
  xmlData = new XML();
  xmlData.load(wddx.php);
  xmlData.onLoad = function () {
wddx = new Wddx();
_root.wddxObj = wddx.deserialize(this);
delete(xmlData);
  }

  for (j=0; j  _root.lines.length; j++) {
trace(Deleting clip:  + _root.lines[j][pen]._name);
_root.lines[j][pen].removeMovieClip();
delete(_root.lines[j][pen]);
delete(_root.lines[j][timestamp]);
_root.lines.splice(j,1);
  }

  for (var i in _root.wddxObj) {
_root.counter++;
date_now = new Date();
pen = createEmptyMovieClip(curve_ + i + _mc, 2 +
_root.counter);
trace(Added clip:  + pen._name);
pen.lineStyle(1.5,0xFF6600);
container = {pen: pen, timestamp: date_now};
_root.lines.push(container);
dest_long = _root.wddxObj[i][long];
dest_lat = _root.wddxObj[i][lat];
site = _root.wddxObj[i][site];
src_long = _root.locations[site][long];
src_lat = _root.locations[site][lat];
curvePoint(pen, src_long, src_lat, dest_long, dest_lat);
  }
}

setInterval(intervalLoop, 6);

[Flashcoders] _parent and _root in custom component have same dimensions as the latter?

2007-04-20 Thread Alexander Farber

Hello,

I have a probably very stupid problem:

I'm trying to create a custom v2 component representing
a playing card (full source code at the bottom). It works
mostly ok, but when I try to get _parent's _width and
_height in its onPress handler in order to restrict dragging:

private function onPress():Void {
setDepthTo(DepthManager.kTop);
startDrag(this);

   //  startDrag(this, false,
// 0, 0, _parent._width - _width, _parent._height - 
_height);

dispatchEvent(clicked_obj);
}

I surprisingly get same values as for the _width and
_height of the component itself. And for _root too:

 CLICKED CARD:  [EMAIL PROTECTED],127.5 rot: 0
 PARENT1: _level0 159.75x244.85
 ROOT: _level0 159.75x244.85
 PARENT2: 183.5x265.65

Why does it happen?

[Flashcoders] Netstream.seek problem

2007-04-20 Thread Webdevotion

Hello,

I have a problem with my custom flvPlayback component
I built using AS3.

The component has a clickable progressbar.
The user can use this to jump to a certain point in the video.

Now, when the user clicks to a previous point in the video
and presses Pause and than Play again, the video will
FFWD to the last point it was showing, prior to the user's click.

I have traced all my methods for duplicate entries etc.
Everything seems fine.

I hope I made my point clear :)

This is my setPlayHead method which should take care of things:

private function setPlayhead(event:MouseEvent):void
{

// rescale the playhead sprite
var position:Number = (event.localX*progress.scaleX)/bar.width;

Subject: [Flashcoders] PLEASE help with advanced dataset issues

Hi Group,

I have an XMLconnector, bound to a dataset, bound to a datagrid.
Connector connects, fills the dataset, dataset is sorted and filtered, and
the datagrid is populated - lovely!
Except for the looong freeze while the XMLconnector does it's thing...

So I tried to fill the dataset manually, by populating it with an array...

This works fine, better in fact because it's faster and there's no freeze,
and I can use a progressbar component to show progress.

I can sort the datagset, and the results are shown in the datagrid.

BUT, as soon as I try and filter the dataset, everything goes pear-shaped!!!
As soon as I apply any filter to the dataset, the datagrid goes blank, and
if I trace the first record of the dataset, it's undefined...

I've been fighting this for 2 days, please help!

Thanks

Don

The whole thing is ridiculous.

Sorry for the rant, to all the people reading this now who are not

It's being sent to the list and to the owner.
This isn't the first time I have e-mailed the list, e-mailed the owner, or

Re: [Flashcoders] setInterval woes

2007-04-20 Thread Jordan Snyder

I'm wondering the same as Alexander...perhaps it's something to do
with the timeline, or with other code that is happening around the
code you posted.  Is there anything else we should know?

You should also just put a trace at the top of the intervalLoop()
function to see if the problem may be with the server.  It is unlikely
but I've seen stranger.

It may not even be with the server, it may be with the XML object you
have there.  If you're deleting it in the first iteration but not
initializing it with 'var xmlData = new XML();, then where would it
be coming from after it's deleted?  That is, unless you're doing
something outside that function.

Hope that makes sense...I'm just now pouring my first cup of coffee
into my belly.

Cheers

[Flashcoders] help with datagrid flash 8

2007-04-20 Thread Gustavo Duenas
Hi coders, I'd like to connect to a rss.cfm file in my blog (http:// 
myblog.com/rss.cfm) using a datagrid component in flash 8 but the  
online documents of adobe only covers
the using of arrays but the using of a external file(rss.cfm), any  
ideas.



I Have this in my action script:

mx.accessibility.DataGridAccImpl.enableAccessibility();
trace(mx.controls.DataGrid.version);
var titulo = this.myBlog.addColumn(title);
var fecha = this.myBlog.addColumn(date);
var myProvider = this.myBlog.dataProvider(http://myBlog/rss.cfm;);

Ps: I know in flex is more easy but my site is on flash 8 and since  
flex is as3 I'm afraid that this can't be loaded using the loadMovie.


I'm killing my poor brain cell googling the answer but so far  
nothing, some ideas guys?

Platform:
Custom build (5 years old)
Win XP Pro SP 2
Athlon XP 1800+ (1.54 GHz)
1 GB RAM

Firefox 2.0.0.3   CPU usage 64-99%
IE 7.0.xxxCPU usage 68-99%

These numbers don't surprise me for that workstation. Web pages with Flash,
Shockwave, QuickTime and Windows Media, usually spike the processor up, when
the browser is the active application. In the background (but not minimized
to the task bar) the numbers tend to run 45-80%. This is without other
desktop apps running. If I launch Photoshop CS
and actively use it, Firefox drops back to ~27% yielding proc cycles to
Photoshop.

Re: [Flashcoders] MXP installation in Flash CS3

Muzak, thanks a lot for your comprehensive answer.

On 4/20/07, Muzak [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:


No problems here so far. ExtensionManager works fine.

 components - in $flash/Components
 classes - in $flash/Classes
 help - in $flash/HelpPanel/Help

Those haven't changed.

The only thing that changed is they're now in an Adobe directory rather
than in a Macromedia dir.
e.g.
...\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash 8\en\Configuration\Classes
has become:
...\Application Data\Adobe\Flash CS3\en\Configuration\Classes

But since $flash always points to the Configuration directory it doesn't
matter.

I have several AS2 components installed and a few Panels (WindowSWF).
Panels written in AS2 still work in FCS3.

When you have FCS3 installed alongside F8 and open the Extension Manager,
it will list all the installed F8 extensions in the FCS3
window, but unchecked in the Extension Manager. You can simply enable
them and they'll get copied from the F8 install to the FCS3
install.
So if you have alot of F8 extensions that you want to re-use in FCS3,
don't uninstall F8 untill after you installed FCS3 (and
enabled the necessary extensions).

The components panel will list/show different extensions depending on
which type of document is currently open.
FCS3 has 2 types of FLA documents:
- Actionscript 2.0
- Actionscript 3.0

Components written for AS2 will only show up in the components panel if
you have an AS2 FLA document open.

 Hi all,

 A client of mine has recently reported that he has problems installing
MXP
 package in Flash CS3.

 I haven't upgraded to CS3 yet, so I'd appreciate if someone can confirm
or
 deny:
 1) mxp still can work for CS3 (with Extension manager, of course)
 2) content goes as it used in Flash 8:
 components - in $flash/Components
 classes - in $flash/Classes
 help - in $flash/HelpPanel/Help
 3) Has $flash path changed sighnifically in Flash CS3?

 To answer above questions, you just need to install any mxp from Adobe
 exchange.

 While I do understand that it is (with probability of 90%) just a
client
 can't see the obvious thing issue, but just to be sure.

 Thanks in advance.

RE: [Flashcoders] setInterval woes

2007-04-20 Thread David Ngo
What I would highly recommend is externalizing your interval and data
loading into a class. This way, you have the class handle its own state and
data, fire an event once it's loaded or reloaded data and have your movie
listen for that event. The class can then be instantiated just once at the
beginning of your movie. OR, use a Singleton to ensure a single
instantiation. I would probably advise against the Singleton approach for
your purposes, though.

Subject: [Flashcoders] setInterval woes


Hey all,

Some of you may remember my problems with visually mapping streaming data
before.  I ended up needing them as separate clips to provide individual
roll-over support with the ability to add links in a future revision.

Well, now that I have it performing better, I'm breaking down the
information into intervals of 1 minute bursts.  What I'm trying to do is
use setInterval to have it pull the data once per minute.

The problem is, when I use setInterval as documented, it waits the first
minute, does its thing, but then it ignores the interval after that,
pulling the data every time that frame comes up.


Here's the relevant bit of code:

function intervalLoop() {
  xmlData = new XML();
  xmlData.load(wddx.php);
  xmlData.onLoad = function () {
wddx = new Wddx();
_root.wddxObj = wddx.deserialize(this);
delete(xmlData);
  }

  for (j=0; j  _root.lines.length; j++) {
trace(Deleting clip:  + _root.lines[j][pen]._name);
_root.lines[j][pen].removeMovieClip();
delete(_root.lines[j][pen]);
delete(_root.lines[j][timestamp]);
_root.lines.splice(j,1);
  }

  for (var i in _root.wddxObj) {
_root.counter++;
date_now = new Date();
pen = createEmptyMovieClip(curve_ + i + _mc, 2 +
_root.counter);
trace(Added clip:  + pen._name);
pen.lineStyle(1.5,0xFF6600);
container = {pen: pen, timestamp: date_now};
_root.lines.push(container);
dest_long = _root.wddxObj[i][long];
dest_lat = _root.wddxObj[i][lat];
site = _root.wddxObj[i][site];
src_long = _root.locations[site][long];
src_lat = _root.locations[site][lat];
curvePoint(pen, src_long, src_lat, dest_long, dest_lat);
  }
}

setInterval(intervalLoop, 6);

Re: [Flashcoders] UNSUBRSCRIBE

Some of us work in corporate environments (read: Jason Merrill) and

And I had no trouble unsubcribing recently from Flashcoders.  You do

you need your password, right?  And you do know that you get more flies

This is the fourth time I've replied to the mail list, asking to be taken

I have also blocked a ton of people who contribute, trying to stop the

That, and I have an insanely long block list now, which I don't really

So, for the love of God, take me off this time.
I am seriously sick of this.
I can't find a damn thing in my Pending box.
This list is fucking over my e-mail account.
And I really shouldn't have to change my e-mail account just because one

The whole thing is ridiculous.

Sorry for the rant, to all the people reading this now who are not

It's being sent to the list and to the owner.
This isn't the first time I have e-mailed the list, e-mailed the

used the automated unsubscriber, so most likely nothing will change.
But it is definitely bullshit.

One other thing that Dave pointed out just recently is that if you're mail
requires a whitelisting request response, the list software isn't going to
know that! So when the unsubscribe confirmation is sent it has to have a
clear path to your mailbox so that you can confirm.

An interval is fired at each interval. What you're talking about is a
setTimeout which is fired only once after a delay (timeout). An interval is
fired an infinite number of times until clearInterval is called.

RE: [Flashcoders] setInterval woes

2007-04-20 Thread David Ngo
Yes, that's where you're mistaken. setInterval will set an interval that
will call a method at each interval. Whether you assign it to a variable or
not, it will continue to call that method at each interval. This is how
setInterval works. In order to clear an interval, you MUST assign an ID and
call clearInterval on that ID. The functionality you're talking about is a
setTimeout. That calls a method once and ONLY once after a specified delay.

[Flashcoders] DHTML menus overlaying Flash elements

2007-04-20 Thread Riley, Jason
On the site I am working on, there is an OpenCube DHTML menu system that
when moused over causes the drop down menus to overlay on a large Flash
element. How can I make it so the menus sit on top of the Flash element
rather than behind it? Is this a setting in the Flash file or do I need to
do it through the code? If through the code are there any snippets somewhere
on this?

Despite the fact that this is likely an old topic, I cannot find much
information on it.

[Flashcoders] Flash Minds Get together in Bay Area

2007-04-20 Thread Phil Dupré

Hello flashcoders,

I'd like to see if any fellow flashcoders from the Bay Area would like
to get together in the real world for a meetup.  Perhaps we could meet
in San Francisco and actually see the faces behind the email
addresses.  Let me know who is interested and feel free to suggest any
ideas of where to meet and what day would be good.

~Phil Dupré

Re: [Flashcoders] setInterval woes

2007-04-20 Thread Jordan Snyder

Nevermind.  I'm obviously not communicating very well.  I'm extremely
familiar with setInterval's and setTimeout's functionality.  What I'm
trying to figure out is why Steven says to clearInterval first
clearInterval can not be run without an argument, so I'm saying that
if you haven't assigned setInterval to something, what are you going
to call clearInterval on?  And why would you call it before it's even
assigned to an actual interval?

Cheers

On 4/20/07, David Ngo [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Yes, that's where you're mistaken. setInterval will set an interval that
will call a method at each interval. Whether you assign it to a variable or
not, it will continue to call that method at each interval. This is how
setInterval works. In order to clear an interval, you MUST assign an ID and
call clearInterval on that ID. The functionality you're talking about is a
setTimeout. That calls a method once and ONLY once after a specified delay.

No, I mean that he is only calling setInterval once and has no
apparent need to even assign it to a variable for use with
clearInterval later.

 Steven, why is that?  If he's only calling it once and the interval is
 only defined/set once, why would you call clearInterval?

Re: [Flashcoders] setInterval woes

2007-04-20 Thread robert

pulling the data every time that frame comes up.

Is this called on a timeline with many frames and no stop()? If so, I  
think you are setting a completely new interval on each loop of the  
frames.


If you want this thing to fire once each minute put it somewhere  
outside of this loop of frames and call the setInterval


I don't know how your project is set up but alternative is to check  
if the interval exists and don't spawn a new one, something like:


frame 1:
if (_global.initLoop == undefined) {
  _global.initLoop = setInterval(intervalLoop, 6);
}

this way your setInterval is called once and will do its thing every  
minute and independent of the timeline activity.

RE: [Flashcoders] [semi-OT] - Preventing Software Piracy

2007-04-20 Thread Michael Mudge
 And me ;) !
 
 How would I connect such a dongle with the app I am trying to 
 preotect when I am using Director and / or Flash!

I think I wasted a bit of your email blabbing about security.  The
reality is, you don't want a dongle, it just complicates things, and
hardware is generally expensive.  A decent and original licensing scheme
ought to work fine.

I think I can come up with some solutions for this...  It may be a
completely in-SWF solution, or a custom Projector program (.EXE that
holds your .SWF).  Is it worth my time to do some feasability testing?
