[Flashcoders] Linking variables to movie clip frames

2005-11-02 Thread Danny Kirkwood
I have a Flash project which I am now putting together using ZincV2 - referring 
my entire application to a database. I have 50 locations each displaying a 
movie clip consisting of 48 frames / pictures (options) relating to the 
relevant number I've imported from the database. 

This shouldn't be to hard referring to a frame number from a variant number, 
but ideally I want it to work both ways - eg: each clip to be directly linked 
with /attached to the relevant  variant so that when the frame/picture is 
swapped from within my movie the variant changes to this number enabling my 
database to be updated from within the movie.

Finally giving the user functionality to scroll through a list of arrangement 
names which when selected displays all 50 entrees each with a pre-defined 
setup. For a new setup the user can click NEW - enter a name for the new 
arrangement, select his option for each position, then click SAVE to add this 
arrangement to the database.

Thanks all,

Danny

RE: [Flashcoders] Simple serial reading application

2005-11-02 Thread Danny Kirkwood
Hi Pedro - thanks for your advice - I`ve downloaded zinc as suggested,  got a 
standard flash application set-up(but not yet working)for reading the comm 
ports using the zinc additional FScommands(as per the Zinc literature) however 
for the PPC version i`ve downloaded these Comm FScommands are not listed in the 
literature. 

If i include the same actionscript in my programm when i render the application 
for pocketPC will these Comm port fscommands still be supported, or is there a 
different method that must be used to read/access the comm port of a PPC ?

Danny

Most of my applications that are made in flash use some strange sensor that
comes from the serial port ;) that's y I recommended Zinc, I do it pretty
much all day, and plus I guess that for your need the lite version should be
enough. Plus no licensing ;)

This is a strange thing to want to do in Flash.

Is using Flash a requirement?

[Flashcoders] Database based flash application

2005-10-31 Thread Danny Kirkwood
 My other basic issue is for an application which displays approx 50 boxes 
 each of which i currently have formed using movie symbols, can be fully 
 rotated in 45 degree increments  have 6 options of contents (this would 
 leave each box having 2 varients (8 for position, 6 for content), or 48 total 
 varients) 
 The arrangement / setup of the 50 boxes makes up a group (basicaly a list of 
 each box content) These are stored in the form of a database.
 The function i want to give to the program is that a user can select a group 
  the relevant contents of each box will be shown, also to beable to change 
 each box  enter a name producing a new group.
 This is basically simple Microsoft Access functionality, but each peice of 
 stored data relating to a movie clip / frame / action within the program.
 This maybe a simple / complicated question, but any help / pointing in the 
 right direction would be much appreciated.
 
 Thanks again for any help,
 Danny Kirkwood

RE: [Flashcoders] Simple serial reading application

2005-10-31 Thread Danny Kirkwood
dosn`t have to be flash, but we have a shell  everything i need setup in flash 
 im not very good with other softwares- just thought there may be some 
backdoor way to read com ports to flash. what software would you reccomend 
scott ?

The application is for reading some kind of tag - displaying any information 
stored on the tag  maybe detailing the tag type. Just a standard serial 
reading software would do (although i`d much rather develop into a personalised 
program - obviously it would leave much more options for attaching data to 
pictures etc..) but there seems to be no standard software such as 
hyperterminal for PPC which dosn`t need a licence for each device (which 
wouldn`t be acceptable- ideally the solution would beable to be ran straight 
from an SSD card) 

I`ll have a look at Zinc V2 - looks very expensive though just to give me the 
possibility to read from a comm port, but i suppose if it gets the job done ;o)

Much appreciate you feedback  time
Danny
