Hello everybody,
I've been racking my brain tonight trying to figure out a way to create a
reverse mask in Actionscript. I'm working on an application which is
entirely object-based; nothing on the stage other than object initialization
on the first frame. So everything needs to be programmatic.
If I'm understandung this...
You add the IDE generated swf (IDE.swf) to the project. You then
create an external class that has a 'main' entry point and it loads
the IDE.swf. (with a preloader of course).
Do I have this right? Sounds good, though the test will be can I
impliment it myself. You
I just noticed this problem when re-compiling my games from Flash 6 to Flash
7. Some of my SharedObjects (i.e. Flash cookies) weren't being read properly
by some of my Flash content.
Getting out .SOL editor (Flash cookie viewer), I took a look at what was
being written out. Turns out some of the
If you're using the drawing API to make the mask shape, you can make an
inversion of it (to show everything but the mask shape) by giving the
commands to draw the overall shape (ie, that covers the whole stage if
that's what you want) and then the commands to draw the shape of the
mask, in the

You can still load external assets as needed, but you have full access to
the library of your main SWF. It works well too if you need to create
projects that need to
I took a rotateZ method from Robert Penner's Vector3D class and added
a pivotpoint to the formula. It works pretty well as a dynamic
registrationpoint :)
var mc:MovieClip;
var position:Object = {x:mc._x, y:mc._y};
var pivot:Object = {x:position.x+mc._width/2, y:position.y+mc._height/2};
var
Yes you can, as long as you attach your movieclips BELOW the loaded clip.

You'll love using the XT DepthManager - plus if you read the comments on the
classes static properties there are exact (verified) numbers for max and min
depths supported by the Flash player.

If you need an object that already exists to be converted into an instance
of the class you can use the XT Prototype class
Prototype.makeInstanceof(obj, Array);

Hi,
Maybe you can use the second parameter.
As the doc say:
*localPath*:String [optional] - A string that specifies the full or partial
path to the SWF file that created the shared object, and that determines
where the shared object is stored locally. The default value is the full
path.
look at System.exactSettings
Setting this to true will cause the player to use the full domain. So say
if someone went to your site and used www.yoursite.com to get there,
that's the directory it will use. Then if someone else used yoursite.com,
it would use yoursite.com as the path. This

Well, no one responded to my question, but after several hours of banging my
head against a wall, I figured out the problem, so I thought I'd update
here.
I was missing the name attribute in the embed tag. Apparently IE keys
