Re: [Flashcoders] Flash 8, AS 2.0. I want to use symbols from child movie in parent movie. Possible?
Hi, You can use runtime shared libraries for this case I guess. You have the symbols in smiles.swf. go to the library and for each symbol define the linkage and set it to Export for runtime sharing. Then open the main movie and do Import>Open External Library and drag the icon on stage and delete it Now you can use those symbols in main movie.

RE: [Flashcoders] how to return in this function
Thanks Juan Pablo for your response. I have some logic related to the XML in
the class, so it makes sense (to me at least) to encapsulate the xml loading
in this class.
(remember I'm trying to access the xml in the fla file in this way):
var mivariable:retornaXML = new retornaXML();
trace(mivariable.elXML);//returns null
Right now, I'm trying something like this:
package {
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
public class retornaXML {
private var _xml:XML;
private var xmlloaded:Boolean = false;
public function retornaXML() {
cargarXML();
}
private function cargarXML():void {
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoaded);
loader.load(new URLRequest("LocalData.xml"));
}
private function xmlLoaded(e:Event):void {
_xml = new XML(e.target.data);
xmlloaded = true;
//XML IS LOADED HERE.
}
public function get elXML():XML {
if (xmlloaded) {
trace("XML IS LOADED");
return _xml;
} else {
trace("XML IS NOT LOADED");
return ??;//WHAT CAN I USE AT THIS POINT TO
CALL THIS METHOD AGAIN TO CHECK IF xmlloaded IS TRUE? (IF XML IS LOADED).
ANY OTHER IDEA?
}
}
}
}
Thanks in advance.

Yes, that's the problem. In Flash, xml loading is always asynchronous so the
trace line is executed immediately after the previous one, in which you
created an instance of retornaXML; so the XML object isn't at that point
loaded and parsed. (It would perhaps be nice to have the option of loading
synchronously, but I digress...).
So, you'll have to listen to the COMPLETE event dispatched by the URLLoader
and then access the xml object.
You can wrap your xml and the loading logic in a custom class as you seem to
be doing so far, but if you're just going to load the xml and the read it /
parse it somewhere else (outside that class), in my humble opinion, the
wrapper is pointless.
You'll end up re-dispatching the Loader events (all the events you want to
support; the error events, and the complete event, at least, just in case
something went wrong, and perhaps the Progress event as well) so your
external code can handle the different scenarios. By the time you are done
coding that, you'll find that you have a class that does almost nothing of
use by itself; it just copies all the functionality that you already had in
the URLLoader and XML classes out of the box. I did it a couple of times
when I started to use AS 3.0, but I changed my approach as it didn't make
much sense to me to have such a class. Having all that logic encapsulated in
the class that actually does something with the xml, on the other hand,
seems like a good idea to me.

Re: [Flashcoders] loadMovie from subdirectory - change base path
Hi,
You need to keep duplicate files if you want it to work as single and also
when loaded from main movie.
Easiest way is to create an xml directory at the place where the main movie
resides and set the path as "xml/1.xml"
also copy this directory in the screens directory
so ths ame path will work for both :)
Hope this helps

[Flashcoders] loadMovie from subdirectory - change base path
Hello Flashcoders,
I'm trying to make a main movie ("controller.swf") that loads other movies
("screen1.swf", "screen2.swf", etc), which are stored in a subdirectory
called "screens".
In controller.swf I'm using loadMovie("screens/screenx.swf") to load the
movies from the "screens" subdirectory, and this works fine. But the problem
is that the movies in the "screens" subdirectory often reference XML files
(which also live in the "screens" subdirectory). All works well when you
play the individual screenx.swf files, obviously, but when you play
controller.swf, it is looking for the XML files in the same directory as
itself (one directory "up").
How can I fix this problem so that playing controller.swf works fine, as
well as playing each individual screenx.swf file in the "screens"
subdirectory? Is this possible? It seems like such a simple idea, but I'm so
stumped.
I should mention that this project is not actually going online - it is
going to be converted to an EXE using Zinc and distributed via CD. So I
can't use absolute paths.
Please! Heelp! Thanks!

Re: [Flashcoders] input text formatting
Yes, that's exactly what I'm going ot have to do. This has got to be a
BUG. If I trace out the format.align property after a single character
change it goes from center to null! Then after the user replaces all of
the text it changes to left.

RE: [Flashcoders] How to shorten the compile time?
Speed wise and AS 2.0 you should go 'intrinsic'. Create a DLL (shared lib) where your main code resides in, then compile your views against that. I've done that on a big project and even the Flash IDE outperforms MTASC with this solution. Check out asigen: http://osflash.org/asigen to generate you're intrinsic libraries. For this solution you need a mind switch and a different way to set things up. Forget about AS 3.0, at that level it's not getting better.

[Flashcoders] Animating sprite.graphics.lineTo
Tried on another Flash list without any luck, so I'll try here. I'm trying to see if there is a way to combine TweenLite and the draw functions (i.e. sprite.graphics.lineto) to slowly draw a line from point A to point B. Maybe there isn't, but I thought I would ask. Is it possible or would it have to be accomplished instead by drawing slowly from point A to a point approaching B, then clearing, drawing further, then clearning, etc. until the endpoint is reached? I'd like to avoid that because it's 1) kludgy, 2) processor intensive, 3) time consuming to code, 4) does not use easing (easily anyway), and 5) would not look smooth. Any thoughts? Oh, and any method suggested has to be done dynamically with the draw API, not a timeline solution, since this is in regards to rendering a dynamic graphic. Thanks.

Re: [Flashcoders] how to return in this function
you could use an event to listen to, to pass the XML out of the class.

[Flashcoders] how to return in this function
Hi guys, hope you can help me on this one.
I have a class to load an XML file. I'm trying this:
package {
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.events.*;
public class retornaXML{
private var _xml:XML;
public function retornaXML() {
cargarXML();
}
private function cargarXML():void {
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoaded);
loader.load(new URLRequest("LocalData.xml"));
}
private function xmlLoaded(e:Event):void {
_xml = new XML(e.target.data);
trace(_xml);
//THE TRACE HERE WORKS PERFECT AND RETURNS THE XML
}
public function get elXML():XML {
return _xml;
//THIS RETURNS null
}
}
}
I want something like this:
var mivariable:retornaXML = new retornaXML();
trace(mivariable.elXML);
but this trace returns null, since the xml file (I think) is not loaded yet.
What should I do?
Thanks in advance.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash 8, AS 2.0. I want to use symbols from child movie in parent movie. Possible?
Hi, you've answered your own question I'm afraid. There is one other option, paint bitmaps to a symbol :). So all the assets for an interactive smiley are stored as bitmaps and you create a movieclip from that. greetz JC On Tue, Jan 29, 2008 at 5:33 PM, Donald Trump <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey! > > Suppose I load an SWF that contains symbols inside the main movie.

[Flashcoders] mc code still runs after being removed...Huh?!?
Another problem: code from a movieclip that has been removed from the DisplayList with "removeChild(sparkle)" and then nulled by using "sparkle= null" or "sparkle = void" . how can I turn off the repetition of the try-catch code (which tells the main class to "kill" sparkle) after the clip should be totally out of the movie?

[Flashcoders] Flash 8, AS 2.0. I want to use symbols from child movie in parent movie. Possible?
Hey! Suppose I load an SWF that contains symbols inside the main movie. Let it be smiles for chat application - smiles.swf. Then I want to instantiate some of these symbols putting them on the main movie _root. That is essential, I want to add the instances to the main movie _root or _root's descendants. Is it possible with Flash 8? I have made some experiments and have come to conlusion that Flash allows to create symbol instances only inside the movie that the symbol is coming from. Am I right? Well, I know one workaround - to paint a symbol to a bitmap and add this bitmap to the main movie. However in my application I deal with interactive symbols not the smile bitmaps, so this approach doesn't work for me. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Re: [Flashcoders] MultiLanguage
Hi Dave I've done quite a few muiltilanguage sites, including Chinese and Korean. The way I've tackled this in the past is to load the fonts from an external SWF at run-time, using shared runtime libraries. It's a bit of a roundabout method, and if a single part of the process is not done correctly, it will fail (silently of course!) and you will not see any text rendered. But it's worth it! You can use Shared Fonts Manager, where the process is documented here: http://sharedfonts.com/eng/help.html The Shared Fonts Manager itself just helps you manage the fonts, and you can use the same method with your own management if you don't want to use the product, your choice. When you get it to work it means you can paste all your chinese copy into the font library FLA, use autofill, then only embed the characters you need. In my experience this leads to a total of no more than 500KB of font data for Chinese (and you only need to load that when the site is actually displayed in Chinese). It also has the benefit of only having to load the fonts once, even if your site is spread across multiple SWFs. Hope that helps, Jake On 24/01/2008, Kerry Thompson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'd think so, but it doesn't seem to be the case.
