[Flashcoders] fscommand launching of externals

2014-04-14 Thread Wenzler, Thomas
Hi John, 
Northcode made a little free tool called proxy 
(http://www.northcode.com/blog.php/2007/08/07/Conquering-FSCommand-EXEC-Part-1-Proxy,
 Download is down the page short before the comments section) that helps you 
with hiding the cmd window...might be useful.

[Flashcoders] Read and save xml file on disk (natalia Vikhtinskaya)

2014-02-10 Thread Wenzler, Thomas
You might look at mProjector or zinc or something in that lane. AFAIK these 
have the additional classes to let you write txt or xml to the filesystem 
without further permission by the user. But this only works as executable 
Projector, not via Browser.

Hi to all friends
I have to create stand alone application  that can read xml file then after 
editing save it on the disk. I need to do that by FlashCs6. I know that
FileReference.load() : Loads data from a file selected by the user.
FileReference.save() : Saves data to a file location selected by the user.
Is it possible to save and read without  the user?
What is the better way for this task?
Do you know any good tutorials with examples on this subject? This task it new 
for me and I want to read about that more.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Karl,
May I ask if I can have your working example of displaying a HTML table in 
vanilla Flash? Or do you use any extra component, sort of a tableRenderer? I 
tried to put a simple table in both a textArea component and a textField to no 
avail...

There is the old school approach of loading basic html table in a flash text 
area and then displaying your pdf in there. AS2 style.
Know as Flash Table.
Sry, I have not tried to load a pdf, but I have used the html table approach on 
a site and it works.

I have sample files and an live example if you would like to try it.
But alas, it may not be what your looking for or work with loading a pdf.

Initially I was doing it to practise the ternary(spelled?)operator instead of

But you're right, how could it trace without executing the function. Thanks for

[Flashcoders] 'trace' executes function

2011-02-02 Thread Wenzler, Thomas
Hi List, I just made a little experiment with this code...

function setMovieClipX(mc,desiredCoordX):Boolean
{
var updated:Boolean=true;
(desiredCoordX!=mc.x)?mc.x=desiredCoordX:updated=false;
return updated;
}
trace(setMovieClipX(movieClip,286));

...and found to my utmost surprise that the trace command actually executed the 
function and updated the movieClip.x position instead of just tracing true or 
false.
If you check omit Trace in the Publish settings, movieClip remains at it's x 
Position.

Wonder if this could be of any use or is a potential danger when using traces 
to debug?

Is that considered bad practice in lieu of code readability or is there another 
pitfall I just don't see?
I'm only asking because in my short past of writing AS3 I called Event Handlers 
with an argument of 'null' sometimes to save on function single-liners like 
doIt();

You shouldn't be manually calling an event handler in your code.  If you want 
multiple event handler functions to run the same set of code, then create a 
third function that they all call.  

function onSomething(event:Event):void
{
doIt();
}

function onSomethingElse(event:Event)
{
doIt();
}

function doIt():void
{
//doStuff.
}

2010-02-03 Thread Wenzler, Thomas
...about how in his country computers have hamsters on wheels for power

supplies and his hamster is sick and he promised his client he would
have this 
done in only two weeks when he didn't know how to do it in the first
place.

Steven made my day. But while drying my eyes from an outburst of
laughter, I want to use one of my rare postings to this list to honestly
ask the good people here to listen to Stevens advice and ignore the
sense of guilt when ignoring the drama in the company of all benos
postings. You recommended him resources enough to study for a year and
he still comes back for more. If he was my carpenter I'd most likely
(and rather) sit and sleep on the floor. I've been reading this list for
3 years now, posted 3 or four times when all other sources failed, but
at the coding level I am now still most of all answers are out there and
googleable. Right now I just skip the list digest when I see its content
is more than half regarding beno posts.
That way I may be missing some of more helpful threads, and I see the
purpose of this list going downhill. I don't know if I have the right to
complaint as an almost passive reading-only member of the list, and if
all active subscribers are happy with the status quo, I will just
unsubscribe and all is well.

Thanks for reading another rather longish post on a clearly OT matter.

[Flashcoders] Erratic behaviour of TextEvent.LINK

2009-12-14 Thread Wenzler, Thomas
Hi list,
I'm currently building an application with FlashDevelop/FlashIDE that
gets embedded into a Director standalone later on. 
My content gets loaded from xml files with CDATA sections containing
html-formatted text like this chunk here:
Marker: a href='event:abcde'test/a 
oder PDF:a href='event:test.pdf'mein pdf/a 
oder Link : a href='event:http://www.mydomain.de'mydomain.de/a  
ansteuern.
The event is then captured by my swf and sent to the embedding Director
App via LocalConnection.
My problem is that at random one of my href's seems not to be
captured(no linkage, no hand cursor, like it was plain text), even
worse, testing it standalone yields different results from testing it
with Director(in flash, all links work, in director one fails), and
worst of all embedding the same CDATA in different xml files yields
different failures (flash fails with one of the links embedded that
worked flawlwssly in another xml) with the same data-I can see no method
in this madness.
Fruitless efforts to debug this included setting the textfields to
selectable(after googling the TextEvent) to no avail. 
So I need
a) some hint how to deal with textEvent.LINK properly and error-free
or
b) a plan B to capture links from html-formatted xml nodes and trigger
some functions in Director.

Kind of frustrated at the moment, glad for every input.
Thanks in advance
Thomas

[Flashcoders] How to handle ScriptTimeoutError with larger PrintJobs?

2009-09-10 Thread Wenzler, Thomas
Dear Flashcoders,
I need to find a solution to the said problem:
I have an swf with a printAll function that prints out the content of a 
multiple frames mc that loads at runtime. Since the Flash.PrintJob class has a 
built in 15 second Timeout between every subsequent 
PrintJob.start()/PrintJob.addPage()/PrintJob,send() I get Timeout Errors when 
the spooling of the pages takes to long. I need to find a way to catch this 
error and at least reset my swf (I do some scaling to fit to the Print size and 
reset that later on). Right now I only catch Errors when the user cancels the 
print job or another error occurs on printing but not the Timeout. Anyway, 
here's what I tried to date:

///___
var counter=1;
var myPrintJob:PrintJob;
var currFrame;
var options:PrintJobOptions = new PrintJobOptions();
options.printAsBitmap = false;
 
function printHandler(event:MouseEvent) 
{
counter=0;
myPrintJob=new PrintJob();
var printTrigger=event.target.name;
 currFrame=ref.currentFrame;
 reset_mc();

//alles drucken
if (printTrigger==print_btn) 
{
 for (var i=1;i=ref.totalFrames;i++)
 {
 dispatchEvent(new Event(addNewPage));
 }
}
 
}
function OnAddNewPage(e:Event)
{
try
{
counter++;
if(counter==1)
{
trace(started)
myPrintJob.start();
}

//setze Printbreite
if (ref.widthmyPrintJob.paperWidth) 
{
ref.width=myPrintJob.paperWidth;
ref.scaleY=ref.scaleX;
}
trace(adding +counter)
ref.gotoAndStop(counter);
myPrintJob.addPage(ref,null,options);

if(counter==ref.totalFrames)
{
trace(sent)
myPrintJob.send();
myPrintJob=null;
//mc zurücksetzen
reset_mc();
}
}

catch(error:Error)
{
//mc zurücksetzen
trace(print error: +error);
myPrintJob=null;
reset_mc();
return;
}
catch(e:ScriptTimeoutError) 
{
// ScriptTimeoutError: Error #1502: A script has executed for 
longer than 15 seconds
trace(Timeout: +e);
reset_mc();
myPrintJob=null;
return;
}

}
function reset_mc()
{
//mc zurücksetzen
 //trace(resetting);
}

///_

Thanks for any input on this

[Flashcoders] Strategies to cope with different encodings of XML data?

2009-03-30 Thread Wenzler, Thomas
Hi there,

I need to find the best way to cope with different encodings of XML documents 
that are loaded at runtime.

The documents are user-selected newsfeeds that happen to be encoded in both ISO 
and UTF-8, so I have to switch System.useCodepage to true or false depending on 
the encoding of the xml to have special characters rendered correctly.

Right now the only idea I came up with was to load the data, check how it is 
encoded, set the codepage property and load the data again- possibly not the 
best way to do it? Did I mention it must be done in AS2?

Every hint/discussion on the matter is highly appreciated!!!

 

Regards

Thomas

It's certainly possible, what server set up are you using? On Red5  
you could do it with FFmpeg, I believe.

AW: Subject: [Flashcoders] FLV issues on Mac PC

2007-08-08 Thread Wenzler, Thomas
Hello Dan,

if your swfs that are loaded to your main application load the flvs, and
you use a build in FLV-playback component you might just run into a
pathing issue with the components skin which causes the component to
stop working. 
The component skin uses a relative path which you either have to change
when you load your component into another path or simply change the
location of the skin.swf...

Maybe this can solve your problem...though i wonder why it is occurring
only under macOS

Good luck

Hello,

We're creating a training CD-Rom that uses multiple swfs and FLVs.  One
of the requirements is that the CD-Rom work both on a Mac and PC.  We're
having some difficulties getting the FLVs to play on the Mac.

The problem seems to stem from differences in how the Mac (Safari?) pull
FLVs.  If I have the FLV on the root directory of the CD-Rom with the
main_application.swf file, it plays fine, but if I have the course
directories structured how I would like (explained below) it wont play
on the Mac.  It continues to play on the PC.

I would like to have all my swfs organized in volume-chapter folder
structure, and all the FLV videos in a separate Videos folder at the
root level.  Since the main_application.swf loads in other SWFs, the
loaded swfs are treated as if they too are on the root level (instead of
e:\volume\chapter\loaded_swf.swf).  This would seem to work fine,
because then I could still point al the swfs to look for the flv in the
videos directory at the root, but like I said, unless I have the FLVs on
the root level they won't load.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to get this system to work on the Mac.  If I
put all the flvs at the root level it will work, but we're looking at
some 50+ flvs, and that would be really cluttered and un-organized.
We'd also like to avoid using projectors, since this will eventually be
moved to the internet.

Thoughts or suggestions much appreciated.  Let me know if you need
further clarifications.

Thanks!

-Dan

that is used all over the project with differing content, but over the
project it sometimes blurs and sometimes won't with no obvious
regularity (i.e. the content of the container is varying while the
filter refuses to work). I traced my filter function if it is applied,
traced if it internally caches the container clip as Bitmap, which it
both does...
so for nowi switched the d*rn thing off and used something else instead.
Did someone else experienced similar or related problems with filters?
Any hint on where to look for solutions will be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance and heres the filter sniplet:

//Filter einrichten
import flash.filters.BlurFilter;
function filter_on() {
my_filter = new BlurFilter(4, 4, 2);
myFilters = content_mc.filters;
myFilters.push(my_filter);
_root.content_mc.filters = myFilters;
debug.text = content_mc.cacheAsBitmap:
+content_mc.cacheAsBitmap;
clearInterval(filterInt);
}

I call filter_on(); from some other function that triggers a menu (while
the menue is _visible, content_mc should be blurred...)

Cheers, Thomas

[Flashcoders] Question: Find out the depth of an XML-File

2007-02-28 Thread Wenzler, Thomas
Hello list,

 

this is my first question to the list... I need to find out the depth of
a given xml file to afterwards find one specific node in the whole
document.

Right now I stacked some loops into each other but that is bad practice
since I never can be sure if I reach the deepest child in my search and
on the other hand have those loops running no matter if it's worth
while.

So what I need is a completely different approach to my problem...

 

I hope I could make myself understood here and thanks in advance for
your help,

 

thomas
