Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 preloader access...or getDefinition ??

[laurent]

ho gosh...how many hours...I had the lxl variable PRIVATE...!

laurent a écrit :


I have a index.swf from a Main.as Class, that load a Preloader.swf 
made from a Preloader.as class.


the Main class load is throught a Loader Class. Then the Preloader 
throw Event when loading is own stuff


so from the Main I have EventListener on the Preloader. I can't find 
the way to reach the PreLoader properties and methodfrom my Main Class

the IDE says:
1178: Attempted access of inaccessible property lxl through a 
reference with static type org.lf:PreLoader.


I've tried casting like this:
var l:PreLoader = PreLoader( ev.target );
var mc:MovieClip = l.lxl.getMovieClip( "feuilles" );

does not work. Need some design advice here
thx

Re: [Flashcoders] dictionary vs array

[Steven Sacks]

If you want the best performance you can get:

http://lab.polygonal.de/2007/11/26/data-structures-more-on-linked-lists/

His doubly linked list is insanely fast. What I mean is, I had some code 
that moved non-sequential items around a list.  Using an Array, I could 
easily cause Flash to timeout from code taking too long with 25,000 
items.  Using a DLinkedList, I could do the same operation with 200,000 
items in about 300ms.  25,000 items was < 10ms on average.


Obviously, YMMV, but these classes are fantastic.

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom method calls from loaded SWFs

[Helmut Granda]

sure... it is as simple as this:

// gets the loaded SWF
var theContent:MovieClip = bulkLoader.getMovieClip(path);

// creates a movieclip that will hold the loaded content
var movieHolder:MovieClip = new MovieClip;

// add the content to the movieHolder clip
movieHolder.addChild(theContent);

// down the line we tell "the content" to play
MovieClip(theContent).gotoAndPlay(2);

now "theContent" has to fire a method that will be used by the main shell
that holds the movieHolder and theContent

hmmm... reading Sydney's post, reminds me that events bubbling up the
display list from loaded assets might not be possible, not sure if
events are turned off or not from loaded .swfs...

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom method calls from loaded SWFs

[Helmut Granda]

time to read on event bubbling.. currently I just have the call on the
timeline

frame5:
callParentMethod();

so, i would need to investigate how to make it "bubble"

Would that be the only way to access this method?

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom method calls from loaded SWFs

[Sidney de Koning]

In AS3 your dynamic loaded content is placed in a sanbox, where you  
have limited functionality.

Can you show the code of how you are loading that specific item?

Does the event in the .swf bubble?  If so, you should be able to detect
it's event as it travels up the display list.  If not, can you make it
bubble?

Re: [Flashcoders] TextField motion

[Allandt Bik-Elliott (Receptacle)]

you should import the Timer and TimerEvent classes

var myTextField:TextField = new TextField();

timer2.start;

private function onTimer2(timer2:TimerEvent):void {

Allan thanks for the alpha. Actually the alpha was only a  
workaround if
motion wouldn't work. It is just to take this of stage and then  
removing it.

Re: [Flashcoders] TextField motion

[Matt S.]

Do you need to name your textField, eg say "myTextField.name = "foo"",
and then say :

private function onTimer2(timer2:TimerEvent):void {
 var moveme = this.getChildByName("foo");
 moveme.y++;
   }

Re: [Flashcoders] TextField motion

Yep you are right.
myTextField.x++ should work, but when i put it on a timer i get an error :
access of undefined property myTextField

Here's the code

import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFormat;

var myTextField:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(myTextField);
myTextField.text = "Križev pot";
myTextField.width = 800;
myTextField.height = 200;
myTextField.x = stage.stageWidth/2-200;
myTextField.y = stage.stageHeight/2+50;
myTextField.border = false;

var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
myFormat.color = 0xAA;
myFormat.size = 92;
myFormat.italic = false;
myFormat.bold = true;
myTextField.setTextFormat(myFormat);

timer2= new Timer(50);
timer2.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, onTimer2);
timer2.start;

private function onTimer2(timer2:TimerEvent):void {
myTextField.y++;
}

Allan thanks for the alpha. Actually the alpha was only a workaround if
motion wouldn't work. It is just to take this of stage and then removing it.

Re: [Flashcoders] swc

[Glen Pike]

You can reduce compile times by using the Flex Compiler Shell.  If you 
are using Flash Develop or similar it works as well.


http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=fcsh+compiler&btnG=Search&meta= 



This is not a Papervision thing, but it really helps compile times...

if you use a tweening Library like Tweener you can apply fancy-pants
tweens directly to the TextField.

you could put it into a sprite and apply alpha / transformations to that

code:

import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFormat;
import flash.display.Sprite;

var myTextField:TextField = new TextField();
myTextField.text = "Križev pot";
myTextField.width = 800;
myTextField.height = 200;
myTextField.x = stage.stageWidth/2-200;
myTextField.y = stage.stageHeight/2+50;
//  myTextField.alpha=0.5; Comes out - replaced below

myTextField.x++;//doean't work, how to do it?*
// 	this will set the textfield to (stage.stageWidth/2-200)+1  
which i guess isn't what you want


myTextField.border = false;
var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
myFormat.color = 0xAA;
myFormat.size = 92;
myFormat.italic = false;
myFormat.bold = true;
myTextField.setTextFormat(myFormat);

var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
mySprite.alpha = 0.5;

//  prolly best to put these after you've set everything els
addChild(mySprite);
mySprite.addChild(myTextField);

/code

I've got this working well:

var myTextField:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(myTextField);
myTextField.text = "Križev pot";
myTextField.width = 800;

myTextField.x = stage.stageWidth/2-200;
myTextField.y = stage.stageHeight/2+50;
*myTextField.alpha=0.5;//doean't work, how to do it? Or  
should i

import something else???
   myTextField.x++;//doean't work, how to do it?*
myTextField.border = false;
var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
myFormat.color = 0xAA;
myFormat.size = 92;
myFormat.italic = false;
myFormat.bold = true;
myTextField.setTextFormat(myFormat);

Re: [Flashcoders] TextField motion

[Adrian Park]

Hi Pedro.
You can't set alpha on TextFields which use device fonts - you'll have to
embed the font if you want to be able to set alpha.

I think myTextField.x++; probably works but since you only do it once it
isn't apparent. You'll have to set up a timer or frame event to do this
repeatedly in order to see the motion.

HTH.

[Flashcoders] TextField motion

[Pedro Kostelec]

Hi

Is there a way to apply to som text added with as3 some motion or alpha?

I've got this working well:

import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFormat;

var myTextField:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(myTextField);
myTextField.text = "Križev pot";
myTextField.width = 800;
myTextField.height = 200;
myTextField.x = stage.stageWidth/2-200;
myTextField.y = stage.stageHeight/2+50;
*myTextField.alpha=0.5;//doean't work, how to do it? Or should i
import something else???
   myTextField.x++;//doean't work, how to do it?*
myTextField.border = false;
var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
myFormat.color = 0xAA;
myFormat.size = 92;
myFormat.italic = false;
myFormat.bold = true;
myTextField.setTextFormat(myFormat);

Re: [Flashcoders] Color to black & white

[Sidney de Koning]

Oh and to reset an image to its normal color again you apply an new  
matrix like this:

var originalColour:Array =  [
1,0,0,0,0,
0,1,0,0,0,
0,0,1,0,0,
0,0,0,1,0
];
And if you like here is a matrix for sepia, because i know this stuff  
is hard to find:


var sepiaColors:Array = [
0.393, 0.769, 0.189,0,0,
0.349, 0.686, 0.168,0,0,
0.272, 0.534, 0.131,0,0,
0,0,0,1,0
];  

Have fun playing around,

Sid

Re: [Flashcoders] Color to black & white

[Sidney de Koning]

You can use a color matrix like this:

// Flash Imports
import flash.filters.ColorMatrixFilter;

var greys:Array =   [
0.3086,0.6094,0.082,0,0,
0.3086,0.6094,0.082,0,0,
0.3086,0.6094,0.082,0,0,
0,0,0,1,0
];
var greyscale:ColorMatrixFilter;
greyscale = new ColorMatrixFilter(greys);
var tmp:MovieClip;
tmp = someClip_mc;
tmp.filters = [greyscale];

setGreyScaleColor(tmp, greyscale, "greyscale");

function setGreyScaleColor(theClip:MovieClip, theColor,  
filterType:String)

{
theClip.filters = [theColor];
this.filterType = filterType;
}

So there you have it :)

If you already know Flex2, Flex 3 isn't that different. Just some  
added IDE functionality/wizards/skinning stuff.
