Re: [Flashcoders] Panning and Sliding, using Tweens possible?
definitely possible. i'm pretty new to actionscript so don't laugh, but this is what i've been using recently. mcButton.onRelease = function(){ new mx.transitions.Tween(mcTarget, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, 0, 600, 2, true); new mx.transitions.Tween(mcTarget, "_y", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, 600, 0, 2, true); } (mcTarget, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, 0, 600, 2, true) target, parameter, easing type, starting coordinate, ending coordinate, seconds or frames, true for use seconds and false for use frames On Jun 26, 2006, at 5:30 PM, Weyert de Boer wrote: I am curious if it's possible to use the Tween or TweenExtended class to make pan/slide animation.

Re: [Flashcoders] Issue with reapeat test publish
that's because the 2nd time you are actually simulating download. if you have a large swf without any preloading you wouldn't see anything happen until it's finished loading. you can either change the download setting to something higher, or just close each time and republish. -dave On Jul 2, 2006, at 12:21 PM, js wrote: When I test publish a file the first time, everything works as expected.

[Flashcoders] Text Shuffle Class

[Flashcoders] switching between attachMovie and loadMovie?
hi, all having some trouble with a holder mc that's loading content either by attachMovie or loadMovie depending on a conditional. it's working intermittently though. if an item is sizeName == half and then the next item also is sizeName == half, the content doesn't load. one more click and it loads though. or it works if i go from a sizeName == full to a sizeName == half. this is all within a for loop loading an xml file. is there a better way to go about doing this? thanks, dave curr_item.onRelease = function() { if (this.sizeName == "half") { holder_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("holder2", 1); holder_mc.holder2.attachMovie("content", "content_mc", 1); holder_mc.holder2.content_mc.contentImage_mc.loadMovie (this.image); holder_mc.holder2.content_mc.contentTitle_txt.htmlText = this.name; holder_mc.holder2.content_mc.contentDesc_txt.htmlText = this.desc; } if (this.sizeName == "full") { holder_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("holder2", 1); holder_mc.holder2.loadMovie(this.image); } }; ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

[Flashcoders] Sorting/Matching Fields in Two Recordsets
Hi, Everyone I'm pretty green as far as remoting goes. My programmer and I are building an amfphp based Flash CMS. It's really close to completion, but we're having problems with images and matching them to articles. I have two recordSets coming in - the first holds various data - subject, body, date, etc... the second holds just the image path files for an article. An article can have multiple images associated with it. Right now, I can bring in both recordSets fine, the images just don't match the right article. The module recordSets have a moduleID associated with them. The image recordSets have an articleID associated with them. The module ID and the articleID are the same value. I'd like to match these up with some sort of sorting function. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Dave You can see from the netConnection Debugger that the id and the moduleid match up: getPress:RecordSet : Result (object #2) .mRecordsAvailable: 3 .serverInfo: (undefined) .uniqueID: 3 ._items (object #3) ..[0] (object #4) ...__ID__: 1 ...active: 1 ...author: "" ...body: "This is the body text." ...datecreated: "2006-11-25 16:48:03" ...id: 52 ...pressdate: "2006-11-25" ...section: "" ...sectionid: 0 ...subject: "Subject One" getAllFiles:RecordSet : Result (object #2) .mRecordsAvailable: 3 .serverInfo: (undefined) .uniqueID: 3 ._items (object #3) ..[0] (object #4) ...__ID__: 0 ...caption: "" ...cmspath: "userimages/52item_tn.jpg" ...datecreated: "2006-11-25 17:29:38" ...filepath: "/cms/press/userimages/52item_tn.jpg" ...id: 142 ...module: "press" ...moduleid: 52 ...section: "" ...sectionid: 0 .mTitles (object #7) ..[0]: "id" ..[1]: "caption" ..[2]: "section" ..[3]: "sectionid" ..[4]: "module" ..[5]: "moduleid" ..[6]: "filepath" ..[7]: "cmspath" ..[8]: "datecreated" ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
[Flashcoders] netconnection debugger in osX intel?
Do any other os X users experience trouble when using the netconnection debugger with amfphp in osX? I'm running Flash 8 and 10.4.8. It works when I first open Flash and make a few calls. Then stops working until I restart or reinstall the remoting components and restart Flash. Someone's blog mentioned that it's possible to make a projector of the debugger and run that in standalone, but that doesn't work for me either. I also tried serviceCapture, but it doesn't work with the IDE on osX from what I can tell reading on their forums.

Re: [Flashcoders] anyone using mCom?
I bought them and my experience is very similar. EXTREMELY disappointed. The skinning is good but the lack of documentation and support is appalling. The documentation has holes all throughout it. I've never gotten a response from the support ticket system. Even when I wrote asking for a refund. Not a word. "If they improved support and actively updated them, only then could I recommend purchasing them." - My thoughts exactly. I'd be cautious. -Dave On Jun 7, 2006, at 11:47 AM, Steve Krichten wrote: I've been disappointed with the MCOM components. Alot of that has to do with the lack of documentation and support. They match the V2 API's in many cases, but in the cases where they don't its not always easy to figure out how to make them work the way you want since the methods and properties are not properly documented. In some cases the existing documentation has incorrect method and property names adding to the frustration. Then when you try to contact their support you're very lucky to ever hear back from them. They have a support ticket system (not linked anywhere on their site), but I can't find how to access the page to add a new ticket, I can only get to the list of my old list of tickets (thanks to some old emails I saved). Its not a good support situation to say the least. There are some bugs in the components, which is understandable, but without proper support it becomes a pretty big problem when you run into them. I expected much better than this especially considering the price tag. If they improved support and actively updated them, only then could I recommend purchasing them. On the positive side, I do like the skinning capabilities. Its flexible and pretty straight forward once you get past the errors in the documentation (I seem to recall some of the linkage ID's are wrong). In most respects the components themselves are a step up from the V2 components, but only a subset of the V2 components are represented. -Steve *Rich Rodecker* wrote: -- -- anyone out there have any experience with using the mCom component set from Metalliq?
