Thanks for your help! I ended up embedding the video which is not the best thing to do but if the client is breathing down your neck, you do just about anything, right?

[Flashcoders] simple gotoAndPlay :: Am I losing my mind?
What's going on here...? I have this one file where frame 75 is named noPix. I load some vars and tell it to gotoAndPlay(noPix) if some var is false. I end up in frame 34. I tell it to gotoAndPlay(75); I end up in frame 34. I check if framesloaded =75. It returns true. I rename the frame to make sure I'm not using the same name somewhere. I still end up in frame 34... In all cases, it jumps directly to frame 34. There is no frame name in frame 34, there are no actions on that frame. I put the gotoAndPlay action in a seperate function. Still end up in frame 34 I'm going nuts here... I don't suppose anyone has a clue?

Re: [Flashcoders] simple gotoAndPlay :: Am I losing my mind?
There is absolutely no function that is going to that frame 34... There is no onEnterFrame besides my debugging onEnterFrame function to check the currentframe... When I put a gotoAndStop(75) in my onEnterFrame, it still passes through frame 34 before going to 75... gotoAndStop(16) works. gotoAndStop(40) goes back to 34 I am really losing it... I'm just taking a wild guess but I'd say this file is somehow messed up or something. I honestly have no clue why it just keeps going back to that frame... :/ Appreciate the help!

Re: [Flashcoders] Webcam color tracking

[Flashcoders] Shared fonts nightmare
Hey guyz, I'm working on this project that has a shared library with some movieclips and fonts... It are those fonts that cause quite a bit of stress... The designer on this project is on a PC and I work on a Mac... Not that that should matter but I'm taking a wild guess this is the problem... The situation... Both his PC and my Mac have all the fonts... Same TTF files. However, if I use the shared fonts in the swf on the server, they come out looking like this: http://webkitchen.be/ downloads/sharedfonts.png Not really what was intended... If I make that library again, and use my shared lib instead of the one on the server, the text comes out right but is shifted down by quite a few pixels causing the design to be screwed up... So yeah... Should we just drop the shared fonts and thereby add a some 50k to each swf? Or is there something we may not have thought about?

[Flashcoders] MovieClipLoader :: onLoadInit
Hey guys,
I'm using this MovieClipLoader thing to load in some movieclips...
And when they're loaded, I want them to play... Very simple, no?
Well...
For some reason, some are playing and some aren't...
I was just wondering... We currently have stop() commands in the
first frame of each loaded swf so they don't start playing before we
want them to actually play so we can add some variables to it before
it starts playing.
Now, onLoadInit is called when the actions in the first frame of the
loaded clip are executed, right?
So if the first frame holds a stop(); command and onLoadInit is like
this:
mclListener.onLoadInit = function(target_mc:MovieClip) {
// loading done
// setting some vars here before we play it
target_mc.play();
};
the loaded movieclip should start playing, no?
Well... some are, and some aren't... :-(
Any thoughts?

Re: [Flashcoders] MovieClipLoader :: onLoadInit
Yeah... I know they're inconsistent... But I mean... Why is this still the case...? I've now added a 200ms interval that executes the play command... That works... Serge Try moving the stop (and related content) down to frame 2. That usually clears up problems of stop + play (or stop + gotoAndPlay) not working at all or inconsistently.

[Flashcoders] Localconnection bug?
So I'm working on this site that uses a local connection between two swf's... I named that local connection SergesHistoryKeeper... It worked just fine on Mac (both Safari and Firefox) but not on PC (neither in IE or Firefox). After going completely nuts in checking the code over and over, I thought about changing the name... So I called it SergesHistory and tried it again... And guess what... It worked on both PC and Mac... So I started Googling to see if there was a limit for the size of the connection name or something like that but apparently the only limit of a local Connection is that you can only send 40k over it... But that was certainly not the case... So I'm guessing this is probably a bug... No?

[Flashcoders] attachMovie _alpha
Dear god... Am I losing it or what? I create an empty movieclip (let's call this holder_mc) in the stage and set it's alpha to 0. To that holder_mc, I attach multiple other mc's... Now, I would think these wouldn't be visible but they are... If I trace the holder_mc._alpha it does return 0 to me. Is that expected behaviour or am I really going nuts?

Re: [Flashcoders] attachMovie _alpha
Hey Cedric, Turns out I am really losing it... Forgot to embed the font... Man, do I feel stupid... again...

Re: [Flashcoders] Water transition
While I appreciate any leads, this is not really helping. Thanks though. I guess if no-one can help me, I'll have to try and clone myself somehow. ;-) Serge Google search for ripple effect flash 3rd result: http://www.freehandsource.com/_test/ripple.html ___ 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] scribbling an oval
This is what I'm trying to accomplish: http://webkitchen.be/downloads/ scribble.jpg Thanks for your help, Serge Can you give us an example of the visual effect you're looking for? The simplest I can think of is a kind of 'ribbon' shape, like an oval but with two ends crossing over - this is a fairly classic way to show the kind of ring someone might draw around eg. a job ad. That wouldn't be too hard to describe mathematically. Danny ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] scribbling an oval
It's supposed to be the drawing API ;-)
Positioning an animated MC would be the easy way and I always seem to
go for the not so easy way ;-)
I got this far (ahum) http://webkitchen.be/downloads/scribble.swf
And now I need a mathematician to fix the coordinates :p
Obviously, this is totally wrong ;-) but hey... at least I'm trying
here ;-)
Oh man... I can totally see my math-teacher laughing his ass off
right now...
makeOvalCoordinates = function (w, h, p) {
if (p=1) {
nx = w/2;
ny = h/2;
} else {
if (nx= -w/2){
nx -= 10;
} else {
nx+=10;
}
if (ny=-h/2){
ny -= 10;
} else {
ny+=10;
}
}
return {x:nx, y:ny};
};
Are you trying to position an animated movieClip Serge, or use the
drawing API to draw scribbles? Because it sound like the
suggestions you're getting are the latter solution.

Re: [Flashcoders] scribbling an oval
Yeah I also thought about doing pre-recorded paths but I though it was gonna look cooler if it were totally random :-) What sample are you referring to? 'cause my stuff is still online ;-) S The sample you originally posted is not accessible anymore, so my take on this might be off-base: http://www.motiondraw.com/md/as_samples/t/CatmullRomSpline/ scribbledOval.htm l This approach is more about 'scribbling' than Math - First several ovals are manually drawn with this tool http://www.motiondraw.com/md/as_samples/t/LineGeneralization/demo.html Now each time the mouse is clicked one of the pre-recorded paths is selected, some random is applied to its coordinates, it is smoothed again and finally it is rendered as Catmull Rom spline: http://www.motiondraw.com/md/as_samples/t/CatmullRomSpline/tween.html Post again if you need more details/code!

Re: [Flashcoders] flash and ASP.NET
Have a look at http://www.openamf.org Don't know if this can help you but it's also a third party remoting solution. I need to create a Flash application for a small non-profit can't afford the $999 price tag of MM's Flash Remoting gateway. Is there a third party remoting solution like AMFPHP that I could use? Essentially I need to read and write to an Access database on a Windows web host. Thanks for any suggestions and pointers to examples for this.
