Re: [Flashcoders] end of program event?
Hi, if you use a localsharedobject it will flush automatically as the player quits. Intercepting the finalize/destroy etc is not possible I think. hth hans On Tue, Jun 1, 2010 at 2:04 AM, Glen Pike wrote: > Hi, > > Not sure it this is any good, but try listening for the > REMOVED_FROM_STAGE event in your document class? > > Failing that, you could setup some JavaScript to talk to Flash on the > Window.unload event, but by then Flash could have gone... > > Hope this is some help.. > > Glen > > > Jim Andrews wrote: > >> I want to write text info to disk when the user quits the flash piece >> playing in the browser. >> >> Is there an event I listen to for the end of the program?

[Flashcoders] JSFL question on shapes and strokes.
Hello, I am trying to convert some drawings on stage into a movieclip via jsfl. It works when all the elements on stage are separatly grouped. JSFL doesnt seem to 'see' non grouped drawings as seperate entities. To clearify, I have on frame on the main timeline. In this frame I have three shapes that are grouped and two shapes that are just plain circles made of a stroke. So in total I have 5 entities on stage. The JSFL script below outputs just three times. Does anybody know how I can get all five shapes on stage via jsfl, no matter if the are grouped or just drawings? I want each item to be converted into a MovieClip. var doc = fl.getDocumentDOM() var tl = doc.getTimeline() var layers = tl.layers; tl.setSelectedLayers(0); fl.outputPanel.clear(); for (var l=0; lhttp://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] end of program event?
Saving state info to disk at the end of a program's run (so state can be resumed on later play) is about as standard an operation in programming as reading a value in to a variable. It's just so very commonly done. Therefore, there must be a very standard class for this sort of UserDataManager. The UserDataManager, on program start, checks for a prefs (short for 'preferences') or .sol (or whatever) file on the system (fills the RAM var with default values if no such file exists). On program termination, the UserDataManager writes the RAM prefs or .sol (or whatever) file to disk. And during the running of the program, other modules occassionally save prefs values in the RAM UserDataManager--in the SharedObject. Surely there is a free UserDataManager (or some such name) class that is commonly used as a template for reading and writing such info to disk in Flash projects? ja http://vispo.com - Original Message - From: "Hans Wichman" To: "Flash Coders List" Sent: Tuesday, June 01, 2010 1:41 AM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] end of program event?

[Flashcoders] Smokescreen: Flash without the plugin
This has begun making the rounds recently but I didn't see it posted here yet: http://smokescreen.us/. Check out the demos, it's pretty crazy what they are able to accomplish. I tried implementing it this morning with some swfs at the place I'm contracting at but they haven't worked. I do a lot of prototypes of possible new software that are mainly just glorified slideshows. Some of them play through even though I have stop points and some only load the first frame but don't play. I can't wait until the official release so I can play around some more. Even if it can't handle 100% of what Flash Player can do, for what I'm doing here it would be great to have the option to play them on an iPad for presentation purposes. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
