[Flashcoders] Font embedding with Regular & Bold versions

Hi all, I have searched far and wide for the solution on this one, but to no avail. The old chestnut of font issue rears it's head again (reminds me of good old Flash 4 days), the basic scenario is this, and a link to a sample file is below: Two textfields on stage, the first, a static text

I'd like a lot more info on this subject as well - general info - when is which mode better, what happens if the GPU isn't supported on the particular hardware, how can I take better advantage of GPU, etc. Kevin N. On 5/24/10 8:28 AM, Fahim Akhter wrote: Hi, In a event driven game with lot

Re: [Flashcoders] Funny, Code Worked Before...

Hi John, No in this case no need to pass the Event. Try classifying the SWF file as local-with-networking or trusted. Check for allowScriptAccess="always" in the containing document. You will not be able to navigate the windows "_self", "_top", or "_parent" if the SWF file is contained by an HTM

Re: [Flashcoders] Funny, Code Worked Before...

Just a guess as I am not aware of the whole picture: try this - function completePreloader(e:Event) as you call this on an event. Let me know. Also check if your debugger is on. On Thu, May 27, 2010 at 8:13 PM, John Singleton wrote: > Hi; > I have this code: > >function completePreloa

[Flashcoders] Funny, Code Worked Before...

Hi; I have this code: function completePreloader() { navigateToURL(new URLRequest('index.py')); trace('yep'); } that is triggered after all the assets have loaded in the preloader. It prints the trace. But it doesn't surf to the URL. It just sits t
