[Flashcoders] Wierd animated text trailing effect issue
Hello, I am working on a dynamic presentation generator which allows for user generated SWF content authored by a console, external XML files, and compiled by using swfmill and mtasc. The user can define animations on textfields, along with changing fonts, sizes, etc. The problem I'm having is that when running the MTASC compiled SWF, and the text animates, it is leaving a ghost trail behind, as if the stage is not refreshing the display. Using embedFonts with textformats and external font library to created the text content along with the animation package to animate the content. Also. The top of the text is being cut off, as if the baseline is being shifted up a half of a line. (BTW. the text displays fine in my SWF studio authored console upon reimport of the parameters). Any thoughts? Have already tried updateAfterEvent in an onEnterFrame call. Could this be an MTASC compiling bug?

RE: [Flashcoders] Loading external SWFs with a different frame rate
If the loaded SWF (12fps) is straight linear, you could control its playback using setInterval, at advancing the frame every 83 milliseconds (1000/12).

RE: [Flashcoders] about the MovieClipLoader class
Aha, Thank you, I was under the impression that onLoadInit was on initializing the Loading process, not the mc itself. Makes total sense now. -Geoff -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of elibol Sent: Friday, June 09, 2006 4:01 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] about the MovieClipLoader class onLoadComplete is called when the loading process is complete. onLoadInit is called when whatever has loaded is initialized and ready to use. The thing is that when a swf is finished loading, it takes one more frame to initialize. The main point is that until it initializes, the swf is not rendered and has no API. It's about the same case with images, except when the image is done loading it will not be rendered until it is initialized/read; this happens one frame after the frame it was finished loading on. The reason? Theoretically (please take note, I am making no claim) it makes sense when you think about how the player runs code in frames. If the current frame has a chunk of code that includes code that tests for loading completion, then it will prepare the initialization code to execute on the next frame. For this to be true, it must be true that once code for the next frame is prepared, it cannot be changed. M.

[Flashcoders] about the MovieClipLoader class
Hello, Can someone please explain what I seem to be "quirky" behavior of the MCL class which has prevented me from using it until I read about it on another post: When loading an image or swf into a mc, using the MCL class, Why does this fail (not only fail, but renders the mc unseeable): loadListener.onLoadComplete = function(tmc:MovieClip):Void { tmc._width = 100; tmc._height = 100; } But this works: loadListener.onLoadInit = function(tmc:MovieClip):Void { tmc._width = 100; tmc._height = 100; } Intuitively, it seems like it would be the opposite. ___ 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
RE: [Flashcoders] How to hide SWF Assets from Internet users
As for the caching issue, here is a php script that I used on a recent site that did the trick: == == Say this is movieloader.php; So in your flash movie, when loading external assets, use myTarget.loadMovie("movieloader.php?filename=NameOfMovie.swf") Im sure there are similar scripts in other server side languages that perform the same function, just don't have em on hand. -Geoff -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Anderson Sent: Wednesday, June 07, 2006 11:51 AM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] How to hide SWF Assets from Internet users Hello All, I have an intense situation right now, and I must come up with an answer ASAP. I wrote a map viewer application for my client, in which my viewer can load .swf Vector Maps from a predetermined directory on the server. >From within my viewer, the users can perform drill-down queries, by selecting contents of multiple dropdown boxes - State, Region, then Lake Name. Paid subscribers, have full access to their maps - but it's imperative that they can ONLY view these maps from within the viewer app. Since the Flash Map Viewer, needs to retrieve these maps from the server using a public URL (unless I am overlooking something), how can I hide these maps from the world - if the outside users are able to figure out which path to type into their browser, and snatch up maps? I know that server-side scripts, can access local resources - like "D:\Documents", etc. - but once the Map Viewer is running from a Remote Browser, how can I bury these maps under some type of file system that is not directly accessible by the outside world (but only through the Map Viewer app)??? Also, once the user views a particular map, how can I prevent the map.swf file from being Cached on their hard drive? If any of you could help me out regarding this, I'd be very appreciative.
