However, I cannot set width or height on the images; they actually disappear. I sized my stage up to 1000h by 1000w to see if the images were just being resized and set at an x/y off the stage somewhere, but no images seen.

[Flashcoders] Lists in/out of ScrollPane

inside a scrollpane, simulating a horizontal list. Yes, I imagine it
must be silly to do this - don't know really - but I was wondering if
anyone could tell me how to make the scrollpane scrollable with the
lists not extending outside its boundaries as they are now. Is this
just the completely incorrect method? Do I use createChildAtDepth() or
createObjectAtDepth()? Thanks in advance.

[Flashcoders] Component child of MovieClip?
Hello all, I have a really basic question as I am still learning a lot of this. I have dynamically created children of classes that inherit from UIObject, but wonder if it is proper/correct practice to create children of a movieClip that are components. My specific problem is not dynamically created, just some symbols I have in the library that have linkage IDs that I add to the document and these symbols have components in them. The reason I do not think this is correct is that I am unable to reference the components through dot syntax, e.g. MovieClip_mc.componentInstance.method(). Am I doing this incorrectly? I just have some graphics in the mcs that are grouped with components. Any help much to be appreciated. -- Jonathan Berry, M.A. IT Consultant 619.306.1712(m) [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.mindarc.com --- This E-mail is covered by the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, 18 U.S.C. ?? 2510-2521 and is legally privileged.

[Flashcoders] Stopping FLV Playback download
Hello all, I wonder if any of you could direct me to a resource that discusses how to have download of a video in a FLV Playback component start only upon interaction? I have a couple of videos on a page with other multimedia available for download (Flash presentations on other HTML pages, PDFs) and they are downloading at the same time so when someone clicks on the PDF links they are trying to download them as the videos are downloading - bogging down everything. If you know of a better way to do this as well you could send me some pointers.

Re: [Flashcoders] OOP 101: Is import really necessary?
I think what he is asking is if this is the same as import: var myObj:mx.core.UIObject = new mx.core.UIObject; I think one of the answers is that it saves on typing out the class info for every reference. Any other benefits to import? On 5/25/06, Merrill, Jason [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So this is one of those things I wonder about. If I type a var to a custom type, doesn't the compiler automatically import the associated class files? When or why would I need to explicitly need to use the import directive?

I think what he is saying is that if you had a dozen imports or imported an entire package (*) it would not include the specific classes until you actually referenced them.

Since reality is you don't, all that code has to be in the .swf upon compiling, otherwise, the .swf wouldn't know what to do with Myvar:MyCoolClass = new MyCoolClass(); If it's not included with the .swf, how would the .swf know what MyCoolClass is otherwise? Jason Merrill Bank of America Learning Technology Solutions -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:flashcoders- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ian Thomas Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2006 12:27 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] OOP 101: Is import really necessary? Errm - actually that's not such a good reason. The 'import' statement doesn't actually embed a class into the .swf. All it does is tell the compiler that when you type (for example) MyClass, you are actually referring to com.fred.MyClass. You could just type com.fred.MyClass throughout the body of your code instead of typing import at the top of the file. 'import' is simply a disambiguation helper for the compiler. It's got nothing to do with what code actually gets included in the resultant .swf. You can prove this by typing: import com.fred.* // Replace with some set of classes you're not using in your current project And recompiling. The .swf file size won't go up until you actually _reference_ an object that belongs to one of those packages. As soon as you typed: var f:MyClass=new MyClass(); or, in fact var f:com.fred.MyClass=new com.fred.MyClass(); The file size would go up. So - in answer to RifledCloaca - no, you don't need to type 'import' at all, as long as you refer to all your classes by full packagename.

[Flashcoders] Did Adobe/MM break loadSound streaming?
Hello all, I don't mean to make such an assertion that Adobe/MM broke the method, but a discussion board thread brought this question up in my research. I have posted on here recently some code for a Flash MP3 player for our radio station, but the reception has been spotty. Some people receive the stream and some do not. It seems to be mostly an IE problem, but I had read that the Flash Player does not recognize the headers of certain streaming media. Is this true? We are really frustrated with this and now are looking for another solution. However, I would love to fix this. So what do you think/know? -Jonathan ___ 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] MP3 Streaming Player check
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. http://www.amplifysd.com - if you had the time perhaps some of you could check in both browsers as well. Thanks in advance. -- Jonathan Berry, M.A. IT Consultant 619.306.1712(m) [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.mindarc.com ___ 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] Are you a help vampire?
I want to offer a basic counterpoint to this: what if the question is just
from a beginner, who has in fact researched a problem found the
documentation/resources incomplete in some way? Is it just because a person
is a beginner that you will not offer help?
Case in point, and be patient with me. I am not by any means venting here,
but I offered a question some time ago about the basic placement of
anonymous functions like btn1.onRelease =
function(){getURL(_root.variable_name,_blank);} and also asked about
whether or not such a function required the _root if it was in fact on the
_root timeline. I actually received some very nice assistance on this and I
appreciate the poster, since though I did discover that this was true
through experimentation myself, he did give me a short lesson on scope. I
had already learned about the Delegate class, but this basic issue was not
clear in my reading, so I would not know I had to use _root or Delegate or
what have you. I do know some Javascript and PHP and so programming is not
beyond me, but learning a new technology from the ground up is the way I
learn generally. I like to know *all* the aspects. So please permit those
who are learning and obviously trying the benefit of the doubt.
Another thing is further questions on the same subject. In this same issue,
I had the question are such function assignments applicable to a button if
the code is placed before the button on the timeline? I got a no, of
course, which was a basic thing I had sketchy knowledge on. What I had was
an ad sent to us by a client wherein the previous coder had used on()
handlers on the clips and I was trying to rewrite it to include the
anonymous functions and our variables, as stated before. When I wrote in the
code in a keyframe in the actions layer above where the button was
instantiated, it worked, but when a new keyframe in the button layer came
up, I had to re-enter the code there as well. This seemed like repetitive
work and my further question about this was not answered.
My point is, does this make me dumb? No. It would make me lazy however if I
did not research this. But this basic practice of where code should be
written and how often was not clear to me since the project was not working
in subsequent frames and the documentation I had read seemed to say write
and be done with it.
I suppose I am both asking this general question again, to help solidify my
knowledge, and also pointing out that this does not make those who try but
fail stupid. All I am saying is that I appreciate all your knowledge on this
subject, but please have patience with those who are trying to learn and
distinguish them from the vampires who ask questions that are so general
that they lack any knowledge of Flash.

My apologies for the message with the incorrect subject.

[Flashcoders] Ad alignment problem
Hello all, I have a problem, which I believe is on topic, but check me if not, with some ads on our site that are loading external movies and when they do the alignment on the page is tweaked - but only in IE. We have them loading in with a proper alignment as gifs, but there is an empty flash movie loaded in by javascript that immediately loads in an external swf, which promptly moves left in IE. I don't have a page for you to look at as these are not on the site yet, though the urgency of this is pressing since the advertisers are calling us everyday. I have tried using javascript to remove the ad and place it in a properly-aligned table using DOM methods, but when the external movies load both the ads shift position. Do you have any knowledge on ensuring proper alignment of Flash ads in IE or are there issues regarding this browser and externally-loaded movies? Thanks.

[Flashcoders] Re: Timeline coding
I just had a thought on this. Perhaps I just need _root.variableName inside

anonymous functions such as clip_mc.btn1_btn.onRelease = function(){}
subject to scoping issues?

Re: [Flashcoders] Re: Timeline coding
however you will not be able to execute any script
defined inside the movieclip until a frame has passed.
O.K. so I just wanted a little clarification on this. Say I have a clip that
appears at the last frame of the main timeline and an action there on the
main timeline applying to the clip. Will that action be accessible once the
clip has reached its say 10th frame where the buttons are? Thanks in
advance.
On 4/18/06, Grant Cox [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
For your first question - you will not be able to access clip_mc unless
the playhead is on a frame where that movieclip exists. You should be
able to access the mc and all child mcs immediately after going to the
correct frame, however you will not be able to execute any script
defined inside the movieclip until a frame has passed.
With your second question, the scoping is not necessarily what you would
expect. The scoping of the function is wherever you define it, for
example having
blah = 1;
clip_mc.btn1_btn = 2;
clip_mc.btn1_btn.onRelease = function(){
trace( this );
trace( blah );
}
will trace
_level0.clip_mc.btn1_btn
1
when you click. Of course, you don't have to worry about the scope of
_root.variableName, as you are providing the absolute path to the
variable.

Grant Cox.

Thanks for the reply, Karthik. I checked the archives and came up with 136 prior messages in relation to advanced books but none that were current, as in the last year or so.

Re: [Flashcoders] advanced flash AS 2.0/3.0 book?
Rich, that sounds like something that I could use. Mastery and not just introductory stuff. The books I have read just go over the basic components, like list or scrollpane, not things like the datagrid or learning how to use a cellrenderer. Thanks again.

The author doesn't just show you the methods and properties availabel to a component, like the other book that is just a reprint of the help docs, he goes into the flash component architcture itself to give you a better understanding of how things are working, and whats going on behind the scenes. He goes into this thing about XLEFF (XML Layout engine for Flash) for a little bit, but I just kinda glossed over that so far, since im not really interested, i just want to undersatnd the components betterbut skipping over all that stuff doesnt affect understanding anything else in the book.

I checked the archives and came up with 136 prior messages in relation to advanced books but none that were current, as in the last year or so. I noticed someone else just posted in relation to a book recommendation and got some good responses, so it would be great if someone would have some information on an advanced book.

[Flashcoders] advanced flash AS 2.0/3.0 book?
Hey Flashers, how about a book for an intermediate/advanced level coder? I don't want to read about what objects, properties, methods, events, event handlers, and listeners are, or even how to write basic classes. That stuff is always repeated in both the AS books (or any introductory programming books for that matter - rant) that I have read. I read the deHaans' Macromedia Press books starting with MX2004 and the AS 2.0 book for Flash 8. I also own the AS 2.0 reference for Flash 8 and the Flash 8 component reference.

[Flashcoders] XML not rendering in FF 1.5/1.5.0.1
Hello all, I am new to the group and am working on a new version of our mp3 player (custom size for a certain feature) and find that the XML is still not rendering in the textarea component in Firefox 1.5/1.5.0.1. This works in previous versions of Firefox and in IE6. Funny thing is, the XML does appear to be loading since if you press the play/ff/rew buttons below, they work: http://www.signonsandiego.com/citysearch/feature/566/ If you view the page below you'll also see that there is a flash of content and then it disappears. The content is still there though since if you mouse over the text area the hand cursor will appear when over. This problem is also replicated in NS 8.1 and Safari. Thanks in advance.

Re: [Flashcoders] XML not rendering in FF 1.5/1.5.0.1
But the problem is, John, that this renders perfectly in IE and in the smaller version of our player it is working fine. Don't know what changed. Any more ideas?
