[Flashcoders] Known limitation for length for loaded content's path

[Éric Thibault]

Hello all!

I have a strange case... i've built a projector for mac and pc with 
external content (images, flashpapers, videos...). Everything works well 
except on some PCs?!? I dont have access to those PCs (student's) but is 
there a known issu regarding path length (every path is relative to the 
main movie)?  I would like to cover all the possibilities before 
debugging directly on those computers!


Thanks a million!

[Flashcoders] Remote SWF to read local FLV

[Éric Thibault]

Hi all


After searching the web all morning, I haven't found a solution to allow a 
"remote" SWF file read by FPlayer9 to access "local" FLVs on a DVD... I've just 
been parachuted in a E-learning project and asked to find a solution to this 
problem... FPlayer 8 did not have that behavior but all the students are on the 
process of upgrading their reader so...

The FLVs comes in two flavers, remote and local, to allow easy access (even on 
a dialup connection).

Is anyone aware of a work around?

Thanks a million!

Re: [Flashcoders] Open a local .html file on click of a button

[Éric Thibault]

If you want to open and center an html popup... I use this code...

   var ResX:Number = System.capabilities.screenResolutionX;
   var ResY:Number = System.capabilities.screenResolutionY;
   var WidthPopup:Number = 620;
   var heightPopup:Number = 450;
  
   var CentreX:Number = Math.round((ResX - WidthPopup) / 2);

   var CentreY:Number = Math.round((ResY - heightPopup) / 2);

   getURL("javascript:var mypopup = 
window.open('try.html','title','personalbar=no,toolbar=no,status=no,scrollbars=no,location=no,resizable=no,menubar=no,left=" 
+ CentreX + ",top=" + CentreY + ",width=" + WidthPopup + ",height=" + 
heightPopup + "');mypopup.focus();");


You can use also the getURL like getURL("try.html", "_blank"); if you 
want another window.

Hi all,

 


I have a folder in which there are 3 files.

 


1.   one.fla

2.   one.swf

3.   try.html (this is just a simple html file on my local disk)

 


There is a button inside one.fla file, on click of which I want to open the
try.html page.

I tried using getURL method. But it didn't work for me.

How to go about it?

Re: [Flashcoders] Completely stumped about MovieClipLoader not working

[Éric Thibault]

I've redone the test on my webserver with the externalinterface and all 
is functionning normaly if all (HTML and SWF) are in the same folder!  
If the HTML page is not in the same folder, the external SWF must be 
called relative to the HTML, not to the loader SWF.  Maybe your bug is 
there!


A+

Mendelsohn, Michael a écrit :

Thanks for trying.

The External Interface is the only thing there that works for me.  I get
the alerts from the html page, but that's it.  It never finds the other
swf.  Could it be some kind of security issue?

Re: [Flashcoders] Completely stumped about MovieClipLoader not working

[Éric Thibault]

I've just copy/past your code inside a new flash file and it is working 
fine both in the IDE and the browser


Published for 7 or 8 AS 2 with the Flash player 8.

P.S. I don't have any JS functions inside my HTML... maybe the bug is there?

A+

Mendelsohn, Michael a écrit :

Hi list...

I can't figure out why MovieClipLoader isn't working.  In the authoring
environment, I get no error but it doesn't load, and in the browser, I
get urlNotFound error.  I don't understand it as the two swfs sit next
to each other in the same folder.  Any thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks,

You can drill straight to the main site by going to

Re: [Flashcoders] draggable mc with buttons in it?

[Éric Thibault]

Your drag code on your toolbox takes over the button events inside it

Place an invisible button inside your toolbox (like a drag bar...) and 
attach your drag code to it...


inside your toolbox...

drag_btn.onPress = function() {
   startDrag(this._parent);

   this._parent.swapDepths(1000);
  
   }


drag_btn.onRelease = function() {
   stopDrag();
   if (this._parent._droptarget == "/silute") {
   this._parent._x = _root.silute._x;
   this._parent._y = _root.silute._y
   }
   }

Aaron,

Your website loaded up quickly when I visited it the first time. The 
navigation appeared without having to click anywhere else. Now, 
however, after exiting both browsers it took your website several 
minutes to load your home page and I don't get any navigation in both 
browsers. These are the results that I get when I visit 
http://www.whitehorsemedia.com/. When I visit 
http://whitehorsemedia.com/ I get the navigation. Results based upon a 
handful of visits with some really slow dowload times.

Danton and Slangeberg,

You didn't have to click elsewhere on the website (namely the Home or
Contact links in the header or the navigation in the footer) in order
to get the navigation beside the horse to display? That is odd,
because on more than one computer in our office the navigation does
not load the prior to clicking elsewhere on the website.

I am going to go check it on our Mac workstation in IE 5, Firefox and 
Safari.

Re: [Flashcoders] Creating a text file on server and emailing attachment

[Éric Thibault]

Take a look at http://codewalkers.com/getcode.php?id=231

but not tested!

A+

Paul Steven a écrit :

I am hoping some kind person will help me figure this one out.

Making a little app to design t-shirts online and want to allow the user to
send the design data to the client via a text file that the client can then
load in at their end.

I have got the code working to create a text file on my server with the
correct data. I just cannot figure out how to get the PHP to attach this
file.

So say the text file is called "design1.txt" and is located in the same
folder on my server as the flash movie.

It is the following code I believe is not working correctly


Code:


$newfile = $_POST['filename'];
$fileatt = $_POST['filename']; // Path to the file 
$fileatt_type = "application/octet-stream"; // File Type 
$fileatt_name = $_POST['filename']; // Filename that will be used for the

file


I have even tried hard coding the filename variables as follows.


Code:


$fileatt = "http://www.mediakitchen.co.uk/clients/davehann/order11.txt";;
$fileatt_type = "application/octet-stream"; // File Type 
$fileatt_name = "order11.txt";




I am really struggling to solve this so would appreciate any help. The email
is getting sent ok and the text file is being created on the server but no
attachment is being sent with the email.

Thanks

Paul

Re: [Flashcoders] Loading issue: Downloading just stops without reason!

[Éric Thibault]

I've visited your site last week (or two) and it worked like a charm!  
But now, it just stops loading...


Have you done any modifications in the loading sequence since then?

Good luck!

Éric.

Marcelo de Moraes Serpa a écrit :
Hi Keith.  Have you looked at the site? Did it load ok for you? 
Actually I´m

using PixLib´s LibStack to load the SWF´s sequentially. Maybe there´s
something that I missed up in the code (two assets loading at the same 
time)

but I don´t think so. I don´t know how LibStack´s implements it though...
has anyone ever had similar problem?

Thanks again,

I had this same problem before and I fixed it by waiting for each asset
to load before starting to load another asset.

Re: [Flashcoders] Resize External .Swf File Based on Stage?

[Éric Thibault]

There is no way to know the stage size of an imported SWF.

The loading parent only knows the size of the loaded SWF from the 
elements present on frame 1.  You could however place an invisible 
element the size of it's stage inside the loaded SWF... (I've used that 
trick before!)  Or use variables with the height and width on the first 
frame of your loaded SWF


A+

Brandon Krakowsky/MTC a écrit :
I'm having an issue resizing externally loaded .swf files.  It's no 
problem if the content of the external .swf is contained within the 
movie's stage, but if not, how can I resize it based on it's width or 
height?  Especially if the content is animated and the height/width is 
constantly changing?  It doesn't seem like you can get the "stage" size of 
an externally loaded .swf.


Thanks,
Brandon

Re: [Flashcoders] Command line compile

[Éric Thibault]

Do your command line from a .bat wrapped with a SU command (substitut 
user with the password).  I don't have an example with me but will try 
to get one from home.  I've used that trick a lot but it was over 6 
years ago.

Sam Thorne a écrit :

Hi List,

I'm working on a project where we're looking at switching to nightly builds for 
the development process, building on MS Windows.

At the moment a cron job attempts to run the compile and gets stuck on our 
Flash compilation.
This is probably because the build machine isn't running as a logged in user, 
but as a system process. This means when Flash tries to throw up a splash 
screen etc. it is probably falling over.
We can't run it as a logged in user (and thus get the windowing environment), 
as it breaches company security to have a dummy user logged in all the time and 
the machine will auto logout after a couple of minutes.

We can't use mtasc, because of issues with using an unsupported compiler for 
production code.

Is there any way to do a command line compile with pure actionscript 2.0 .as 
and .fla based source files without a windowing environment?
Is this something that Flex can do for us, or would we have to rewrite into 
mxml?

Re: [Flashcoders] Controlling an Embedded SWF

[Éric Thibault]

What number do you get if you trace the total number of frames that your 
SWF (A) contains ?


Maybe it's a path issue  :-\

A+

Loren R. Elks a écrit :

Hi:

I have a SWF (SWF A) that I'm loading into a movieclip (Movieclip
C)which is part of another SWF (SWF B).  Basically, SWF B functions as a
player, with play and pause controls.  These controls control Movieclip
C where the external SWF A is loaded into.

Normally, I have had no problem with this and it always works.  At run
time, when you click the pause button on SWF B, a stop() command is
issued to Movieclip C, which stops the play of the external movieclip
(SWF A) loaded into it.

However, I did a screen capture with Captivate and published it as a
SWF.  I loaded this SWF (SWF A) into Movieclip C in SWF B at run time.
However, clicking the controls on SWF I created has NO EFFECT on the SWF
I created in Captivate.  It just keeps playing.

I guess all SWFs are NOT created equal.  How can I make this work?

[Flashcoders] automatic datagrid?

[Éric Thibault]

Is there a way to select without any user interaction the first line of 
data inside a datagrid component and thus trigger the change event 
(highlight, code on change event,...)?


Like the selectedNode of the tree component...

Thanks a million

Re: [Flashcoders] SWF, IFrame and z-order

[Éric Thibault]

I am using the wmode and I have no more problems...

The only thing is that the application that I'm working on wrote the url 
of the SWF, jpeg, pdf directly to the source of the iframe! I had to 
patch in with an actual html content, if I'm dealing with a SWF, with 
the wmode added to it!


Thanks.

The answer, as Geoff noted, is WMODE... searching on this term will 
describe how some-but-not-all browsers accept a parameter in the 
OBJECT/EMBED tags to pipe plugin content to the browser's offscreen 
compositing buffer rather than directly to screen, enabling effects 
such as HTML overlays and background-transparent plugins.


(NB: I do not know of any documentation from browser-makers or 
open-source on how well the various browsers implement this... there 
have been problems in some browsers with upside-down printing or other 
oddities when this ability is toggled... testing your work in the 
range of your audience's browsers is definitely recommended when 
dealing with browser-dependent features.)

Hello all,
I wondered if some of you could check on a radio player I created for 
one of
our sites. It uses live365 and we chose Flash because of the 
cross-browser
compatibility. It streams from my computer, my home computers, and a 
lot of

other people's computers that we have tested, but for a few only does it
not. I am just looking for streaming problems across a wider sweep of the
possible user base.

check in both browsers as well. Thanks in advance.

[Flashcoders] printJob and printAsBitmap

[Éric Thibault]

Hi all...

I'm adding a simple "printsomeinfo" page to my project but something 
strange is happening!


The printout will be of pure text with no images so I'm setting the 
printAsBitmap to false... but the content of my SWF (all of it including 
loaded clips) just dissapeares once the print dialog is gone...   If I 
set it to true, everything is OK!?!  My mc_print that I want to print is 
not visible on the stage (x = -1000).


The thing is the printing looks better in vector based than as a bitmap!

I've used printJob a while ago with no problems (I was always printing 
as bitmap because of images).


I'm using Flash 8 but publishing in player 7

MyPrintJob.addPage("mc_print",{xMin:0, xMax:980, yMin:0, 
yMax:1500},{printAsBitmap:false},1);


Thanks!

im not actually compiling the swfs and uplaoding on this one, so im

know why this would be, if both domains are set up exctly the same?

Re: [Flashcoders] Making a cd for Pc and Mac(Zinc-Director-SWFStudio- .NET)

[Éric Thibault]

Did you know that INM is making a V12 database for Flash...

It's a Director movie that lunches your Flash App and from Flash you can 
talk to the V12 database via Director...


here : http://www.inm.com/products/v12flash/


Steven Sacks a écrit :

Well, mProjector is able to communicate to COM objects on PC and I'm
pretty sure there's a Mac equivalent.  But, it would probably take some
work to figure out how to make it work well.  Director w/V12 might be
your only choice unless you want to code your own DB, so to speak.

What you might be able to do is launch an invisible Director movie
(offscreen) with a swf running in it that you would communicate with
from your main Flash app using LocalConnection for your db purposes.

You can also put inside the parent SWF a variable telling where is the 
XML folder... and if the child.swf can read that "parent" variable 
than set the path accordingly.

Re: [Flashcoders] More Text Embedding Woes

[Éric Thibault]

For a quick test...

If the TextFormat's font is the link name of a font in the library... 
would it work properly then?

Ian Thomas wrote:


Hi Eric,

Thanks for that - but it doesn't seem to solve my problem. :-)

I can get getTextExtent() _working_ perfectly happily - I just can't
get it to work using the actual metrics of the embedded font, only
(apparently) of the system version of that font. (Or possibly what's
happening is it's using the metrics of the embedded font but isn't
taking antialiasing into account - or something like that.)

If I turn font embedding off then the field lays text out in exactly
the way that getTextExtent() predicts that it should - if I turn font
embedding on, then the text in the field is slightly wider than
getTextExtent thinks it should be.

What it looks like I need to do is to make getTextExtent() use the
embedded version of the font for it's calculations. And that's where
I'm stumped - I'm using getTextFormat() on the field which has the
font embedded in it, but it looks like that isn't getting through to
getTextExtent().

Cheers,
 Ian

Okay, a new text embed issue for me today...

Text embedding is working fine - that's not the problem.

I'm trying to do some getTextExtent() calculations.

The steps I take to do so are:
- Dynamically create a text field and give it some text and an
embedded font. This all works perfectly well.
- retrieve a TextFormat object from the textfield
- do some calculations using getTextExtent() on that TextFormat

Unfortunately, it looks very much like getTextExtent is performing
calculations using the system version of the font, rather than the
embedded version.

A specific example is:
- I calculate the width of a piece of text, making sure it fits
exactly on to two lines. The calculations all look right, but once I
set up the field size to the values returned from getTextExtent(), the
text wraps on to _three_ lines. If I turn _off_ the font embedding on
the field, it all works as expected. This indicates, to me, that
getTextExtent isn't using the embedded font.

Has anyone got any experience of this or any thoughts?

So far, I've tried setting embedFonts=true on my TextFormat object
(undocumented but apparently a hack used by some people to get font
embedding working). Otherwise I'm a bit stumped - I don't really want
to turn off the nice smooth outlines!

Oh, for reference Flash 8, but publishing to FP7.

Ta,
 Ian

Re: [Flashcoders] Issue with Masks in externally loaded SWFs?

[Éric Thibault]

I'm using mask inside loaded SWF but I have to be carefull of the 
dimention of those loaded SWF because everything inside (and outside 
it's root level) is visible on the loading SWF!


One thing I'm doing now is to mask my loader within my parent SWF and 
load into that external SWF with their own mask.  One of our graphist 
always do external SWF the same size as the parent SWF... thus avoiding 
the masked content to spill out onto the parent SWF.

[Flashcoders] onLoadComplete VS onLoadInit

[Éric Thibault]

Salutations...


I'm using the onLoadInit event to execute custom fonctions when loading 
external SWF's.  While I was testing my code (IDE), everything was  OK 
and my fonctions firing.  But on testing the same code (SWF 7) with IE 
on my PC with FlashPlayer 8, the onLoadInit event only fires the first 
time a SWF is loaded meaning that if I asked  the same SWF again 
(present in my cach), the event was ignored! (I'm using a dynamic txt on 
_root level to test this).  In FireFox, everything is OK


I've finaly debuged the thing with the onLoadComplete event... IE always 
fires the event even the second time a SWF is loaded!  The Help sais 
that the onLoadInit gets fired when "the actions on the first frame of 
the loaded clip have been executed. When this listener has been invoked, 
you can set properties, use methods, and otherwise interact with the 
loaded movie.". 

I there a way to force the onLoadInit with IE? Or do I need to test the 
navigator and then execute my custom fonctions after the first frame of 
the loaded clip has been executed???


Thank a million!

But I only have some experience with databases, not very much with XML.

Thanks for your thoughts! I'll check out SWFStudio nevertheless.

Hi Nik,

Check out SWFStudio, it offers ADO connectivity. Downside is ADO has to be
installed on the machine.

Alternatively check out the Catalog plugin for SWFStudio - offers search
functions through a flat tab delimited file. We used it to do exactly what
you describe for a HUGE floor tile manufacturer's sample CD.

Re: [Flashcoders] I.E. won't play MP3 (sometimes)

[Éric Thibault]

Everything is OK here : WinXP pro sp2 + IE 6.0.2900 sp2

Marc Hoffman wrote:

I'd still appreciate hearing if others with I.E. 6 have trouble with 
this.


Helmut, your findings are interesting, too. If the problem I 
experience is related to your experience, why would I.E. be taking 
longer than other browsers to download? I think they may be unrelated. 
Also, even after the mp3's are in my I.E. 6 cache, the sound still 
won't play. If I type in the mp3 URL directly, it plays in Windows 
MediaPlayer. Then, very rarely, the same sound will successfully play 
in the swf, but usually not. I may try regenerating the MP3 files in 
Audition -- I think I set them for MP3Pro and maybe the standard MP3 
would have more success.


As for download time, I'm on cable connection, so the images appear 
within a second or two. The images average 20 KB. Unfortunately the 
second image is 54 KB, so I should probably reduce it to half the 
size, or have a loading indicator so the user isn't confused by the 
wait. The MP3 files average 9.8KB and none is larger than 15 KB. They 
don't compete for bandwidth, since they are available only after the 
associated image has loaded.


Thanks,
Marc

Hold that thought, it works on WIN XP IE7 the problem is that the images
take too long to load and there is not a built in preloader, so it is 
hard
to know that something is happening in the background, after I sent 
my email

I opened your page again and everything was there and working properly.

Re: [Flashcoders] Wrong width and height when using MovieClipLoader?

[Éric Thibault]

Actualy, you have the same problem that I had 2 weeks ago...

From Ryan in response to my centering problem of loaded SWF...

Ryan Potter wrote:

Eric-

I have run into the same problem before.  the only way I found to force 
a clip to have a certain dimension is to put a graphic in at the size 
you want the clip to be.  I realize that you don't have control over the 
swfs that are being created but I have never been able to solve this 
either.  The width and height of the clip always equate to the width and 
height of the content in the clip.


The Only way I have been able to solve this is to use onLoadInit and set 
vars on the child that state the width and height explicitly.  But this 
requires having access to the fla.


Child Swf in the first frame:
   this.w = 300;
   this.h = 300;

Parent centering function called from the loader.onLoadInit
   
function centerClip(clip){

   var w = clip.w;
   var h = clip.h;
   clip._x = Stage.width/2-(w/2);
   clip._y = Stage.height/2-(h/2);
}

Good luck!

If you see the source code of the site I'm using the detection kit

Yeah, the background colour information get's included in the swf -
otherwise it wouldn't appear when  you play the swf back in the flash

That's the thing, are you sure it's in the swf? Maybe it's 
just the fla.

Well that's just plain dumb - it should be part of the stage 
object, the info is contained in the swf.


I'm trying to write a double buffering class, the first thing 
it has to do is take a snapshot of the stage to make an 
opaque copy - but it only sees what's on the stage. That 
means I'll have to get peeps to pass in their background 
color to te constructor - not very elegant.


Thanks anyhow

Re: [Flashcoders] LoadClip and centering new content

[Éric Thibault]

Thanks erery one for all the solutions and support

I'll put a note in my component that the centering function can 
sometimes produce indesirable results depending on the SWF loaded.  I'll 
strongly suggest to activate my mask option and align top-left to make 
sure everything is OK...


As for my own SWF, i'll go with Ryan's solution.

Thanks again!

Eric-

I have run into the same problem before.  the only way I found to force a clip 
to have a certain dimension is to put a graphic in at the size you want the 
clip to be.  I realize that you don't have control over the swfs that are being 
created but I have never been able to solve this either.  The width and height 
of the clip always equate to the width and height of the content in the clip.

The Only way I have been able to solve this is to use onLoadInit and set vars 
on the child that state the width and height explicitly.  But this requires 
having access to the fla.

Child Swf in the first frame:
this.w = 300;
this.h = 300;

Parent centering function called from the loader.onLoadInit

function centerClip(clip){
var w = clip.w;
var h = clip.h;
clip._x = Stage.width/2-(w/2);
clip._y = Stage.height/2-(h/2);
}

Re: [Flashcoders] LoadClip and centering new content

[Éric Thibault]

Mmm...

The funiest thing is that if I want to center my loaded SWF that has 
instances outside the loaded SWF'stage, it gets shifted :'(


Is there a way to know the nomber of pixels to the left, top, bottom and 
right of the registration point (0,0) of a container?  I could than 
compensate for the extras of the SWF inside of it...


Say that my container is 200px in width but I know that it has 50px 
extra to the left (-50px), my real width is then 150px??

Nathan Derksen wrote:

Ah yes, that's a fun issue. Unfortunately, once you load an SWF  
inside another, there is no way that I know of to get the original  
published stage size. I would love to be proved wrong, though, but I  
have looked hard for a way to do that as well. All you can really do  
is keep xscale and yscale to 100, and use a fixed size mask so that  
anything outside of the area you have set aside for the clip is  
hidden (in case stuff goes outside the bounds of the stage).

  Hello,


I try to understand how to constrain a swf of width = 500 , height = 300 in
a movie-clip whose width=200 and height=247 without redimendionning the *.swf.
(I know i will lose some visual information of the SWF, it is all right...)

Do you know how to do that ?

I just suceed to place the swf relative to a movie-clip with :
  movieclip_container.loadMovie("file.swf", level) 
but not to constrain this SWF to the movie-clip dimension.

Re: [Flashcoders] Transitions question

[Éric Thibault]

Hello to all...

I have finaly finished my little project : a component for loading 
jpg/swf with configurable preload, transitions, forced dimentions, ...


My global TransitionManager never worked correctly (just for fading 
transitions) and I had to reconfigure my functions to generate a new 
TransitionManager with listener each time when loading or unloading an 
external file.


To polish up my work, I would like to install my little component 
can someone point to me a good article on how to package it for 
installation on both MAC and PC?


Thanks a million.

My problem is if I change the transition type... no transition occurs

It seems that I can only use basic transitions, no Fly, Iris, Photo,

or do I have to use another programme like Director (with xtra IO) to do 
the trick?

onEnterFrame:

var leftEdge = 0;
var rightEdge = image._width – frame._width;
var move;
if(image._x >= leftEdge){
move = "left";
}else if(image._x+image._width <= rightEdge){
Move = "right";
}
If(move == "left"){
Image._x -= 5;
}else{
Image._x += 5;
}

Subject: [Flashcoders] Image movement

Hi,

I am stuck with a few logic conditionals for moving an image.

The situation is:

I have an image that is wider than the stage that needs to be moved from 
right to left and vice versa when it reaches the end of the image, changing 
direction. The image is to use a manual (mouse quided) or an “automatic” 
movement.


What I have looks something like this (onEnterFrame):

//var automatic:Boolean;
var leftEdge = 0;
var rightEdge = image._width – frame._width;


if ( image._x <= rightEdge ){
image._x -= 5;
}
if ( image._x >= leftEdge ){
image._x += 5;
}


As you might see, this code doesn’t really work. So the question is, how can

I detect when the image has reached one edge and goes to a “goLeft” or 
“goRight” state and won’t change until it has reached the other edge?


Thanks,
Claudia

Re: [Flashcoders] tweening and loader...

Strange... If I dont use my square_c component and use a simple 
square_mc... movieclip instead, it works!  Why? Is there something I'm

I must not touch the timeline of the menu and the tweening of the

Is it possible to draw a dotted line between two points or do I have to

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash webservice puzzle

If all the seats (manualy placed empty MC) have an id identifier, just 
use that id to store inside your DB! It's a direct connection between 
your user (databasewise) and that particular seat!


then use myStadium[MyUserSeat].DoFonctionX(params); //(if your empty MC 
contains that particular fonction...)

Re: [Flashcoders] Firefox bug?

The code inside your HTML page is :

codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"; 
width="100%" height="100%" id="magmart" align="middle">







bgcolor="#7251bc" width="100%" height="100%" name="magmart" 
align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" 
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" 
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"; />



where you specify the with and height of your SWF.  Instead of % you 
should use px because Firefox seems to resise your SWF so that all of it 
is shown in 100% of the screen!


Is there a reason to have a 2048px stage and only use 50%?

You could think of the Html page like a window to show only a portion of 
your movie... and adjust your stage to that window and move the content 
MCs to that space (like a mask)...


I'm just trying to vision it all.

My "french" 2 cents.

Re: [Flashcoders] Firefox bug?

if instead of
   width="100%" height="100%"

you put the actual real pixel dimentions in width and height (but then 
you will have scrollbars...) ? Because the swf IS 100% of my FF screen!


It seems like a deficient implementation from IE...

strange way.
If the publish settings is to showAll, in FireFox the movie appear very very
little, about the half of the screen;
if the publish settings is to noBorder, in FireFox the movie appear right in
width, but... (very strange behavior!) just the top part of it is visible.
The height of movie is 750 px, but if you try to right click just under
visible Flash, you discover html context menu, not Flash menu, like if movie
height is too less than 750!...
You can see it at this URL: http://www.magmart.it/index2.htm. Try to open in

then replaced, a file called swflash.inf from the Windows > Downloaded
Program Files folder.  swflash.inf was a file that got deleted when I
clicked (Temporary Internet Files) Delete Files... from IE. However,
after manual removal and replacement, swflash.inf does NOT get deleted.
go figure. for posterity, here's my IE version:
6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158

It doesn't sound like a real fix, but that's they way it happened for
me. The problem is still repeatable on other computers, though.



Michael,

This sounds real weird... can you make out some specific diffrence btw 
yours and some other system where everything works fine?


if you cant figure it out lemme know we can take this issue off
list.

Thanks,

Flash 8 player\IE\WinXP:

I've encountered some messed-up scenarios where Flash player gets
disabled solely because of Deleting Temporary Internet files from IE.
For me, once temp files are deleted, sites that attempt to detect Flash
fail to detect Flash. Those sites either show and error (like
macromedia.com) or automatically push non-flash content (like cnn.com).
However, Flash content still works on sites that do not attempt Flash
detection.

I'm using WinXP Pro SP2 with admin rights, flash player 8, Internet
Explorer.

Even re-installing the Flash player from Macromedia does not work,
unless I re-boot first. But I can always then replicate the problem by
Deleting Temporary Internet files. I have seen others have this
   


problem,
 


while others do not. How is this possible?

Re: [Flashcoders] How do I tell a movieclip to play insync with the loading percentage.

[Éric Thibault]

And if you do a gotoAndStop on each 4 "tracing rectangle" movieclip with 
the value of percentageLoaded?


   mc1.gotoAndStop(percentageLoaded);
   mc2.gotoAndStop(percentageLoaded);
   mc3.gotoAndStop(percentageLoaded);
   mc4.gotoAndStop(percentageLoaded);

It wont be a fluid animation but will follow the loading pattern!

Nicholas Chhabra wrote:


Yeh, I've already got all the preloading code setup -

kBytesLoaded = _parent.getBytesLoaded()/1024;
kBytesTotal = _parent.getBytesTotal()/1024;

kBytesRemaining = kBytesTotal - kBytesLoaded;
percentageLoaded = 100 * kBytesLoaded / kBytesTotal;
percentRemaining = 100 - percentageLoaded;
ProgressText = Math.floor(percentageLoaded) + "%";
ProgressText2 = Math.floor(kBytesLoaded) + " OF " + 
Math.floor(kBytesTotal) + " KBYTES LOADED";

loadBar._xScale = percentageLoaded;

Instead of having the normal rectangle loading, I want a line to trace 
a rectangle. I already have a series of four shape tweens drawing a 
rectangle (these have a 100 frame duration), I would like this 
movieclip to correspond with percentageLoaded - the reason why I have 
a tracing rectangle is that I'm loading content on inside its area 
(not in the movieclip) but inside the area that it traces, so its like 
a border.




Howard Nager wrote:

Ha - thanks for catching the typo. I should mention that this is just 
the way to grab the percent loaded...by no means will you get a 
smooth animation (the 100 frame loading sequence) out of this.

Right, and that is the other way.

Watch that second "_root" though. (e.g. _root.getBytesTotal())

Re: [Flashcoders] Can FCS detect player version?

[Éric Thibault]

Just an idea:

If you place a flash 3, 4 or 5 inside your HTML and inside that flash 
you detect the version, you could than loadMovie a SWF accordingly?


What happens if I load a 8 SWF inside a 5 SWF are my 8 
fonctionnalities still execute? :-\

Re: [Flashcoders] flash -> css tooltip

[Éric Thibault]

Very intersting.

Can you send me off-list an example of a call from flash?  I'm curious 
about the encoding of the strings passed to the "ddrivetip" function 
(line breaks, special caracters,...)


Thanks a million!

http://www.ericd.net/new_css/tooltips/

You can see what I am doing at the above destination. Works pretty well -
ExternalInterface call to the javascript which pops the tooltips with the
text sent out of Flash. The hide tooltip is another call made from Flash to
javascript as well. The example may be a little on the ugly side, but it
works :)

- edolecki


If you have a toolbox for creation of CSS tooltip you need no more
 


advices. I don't know your task exactly but sometimes it's necessary to
 "hitTest" a page element before performing further actions.

If you need a solution for this I have two JS functions, just let me know.

In general you're on a right way. On the only right way actually :)

Include punctuations as well.

If that doesn't work, select (all 3 of them):
Latin I
Latin I Extended A
Latin I Extended B

To apply basic html formatting, put the text in CDATA (think someone
mentioned that already).

I cannot get the "TM" in superscript to appear in my Flash movie.

I can see it in my xml file - see
http://www.mediakitchen.co.uk/movie_data.xml

My flash movie has the text set to html by clicking on the option in the

It is a Flash MX 2004 Movie published as Flash 7 As 2.0

The font it uses is "Frutiger-cn" and I have chosen to embed Basic Latin

Any ideas why this doesnt work?

Also when I put the   around some text, it appeared to break the

If anyone has any idea what I am doing wrong it would be much appreciated.

Re: [Flashcoders] passing mouse event

[Éric Thibault]

I must appologise to you H. because your droptarget solution works... 
the only thing was that the mouse pointer must be within the target to 
trigger the doptarget property!


It will be much easier to do that then test all the movieclips on the 
stage at every mousemove!


Thanks again

elibol wrote:


Hi Eric,

The _droptarget property changes before you 'release' a movieclip. It
changes whenever the majority of the area of the movieclip is over something
other than what is taking up the majority of the area at that instance. I
accually made sure this was the case before I posted because I was sure that
you would need the target before it was droped.

As for your other problems, you should gather as much information as you can
about the anatomy of the movieclips that need to be triggered if you arent
able to collaborate with your partners. If you're able to collaborate with
the developer that is creating the targets, you should have him construct an
abstract API for each target so you can 'question' any of the movieclips for
a movieclip group style identifier; which will allow you to differentiate
one target from the next without loops.

Good luck,

H

I've tried it with no success because the droptarget property is only

Hi Eric,

Maybe a more optimized solution would be to have an onMouseMove event on
 


the
   


movieclip that is being dragged, which would be activated when the
 


movieclip
   


is dragged, that would run eval on the clips _droptarget property for
 


each
   


onMouseMove event. Each target could have a distinguishing public
 


property
   


that would be evaluated with the hitTest that would serve as the
 


exception
   


for triggering the onRollOver function. The dragging clip would also do a
onRollOut trigger on the last clip it was over once the clip is no longer
over the target.

I tested this:

var lastMC:MovieClip;

function onPress(){
this.startDrag();
onMouseMove = runOnMouseMove;
}

function runOnMouseMove(){
var t = eval(this._droptarget);
trace(t);
if(t!=lastMC){
if(lastMC.isTarget){
lastMC.onRollOut();
lastMC = undefined;
}
if(t.isTarget){
lastMC = t;
t.onRollOver();
}
}
}

function onRelease(){
this.stopDrag();
onMouseMove = undefined;
}

onReleaseOutside = onRelease;


Good luck,

H

I have an application that uses startdrag events.

My problem is that I have about 20 targets with rollover events (each
hilighting a different portion of a radiography). When I drag an MC
over those targerts, the rollover dont get triggered! Is there a way to
pass the mouse event under my dragged MC to trigger my rollovers? To
temporary solve this (an get a demo working) I've put en onenterframe

There must be a better way to do that!
