Your best bet is to create a new class that overrides .visible with a
getter/setter, and add the event there (pretty much the same Henrik

else, but it also means you cannot use a Sprite but rather your new class.

Using latest (svn) version.
About that, I was just looking at Tweener's code, and I don't think that
would be a problem either. It is basically a static class, so there's no
extra memory allocation for tween added, except for a relatively small
TweenListObj pushed into an array.
Or maybe I am wrong and Zeh can correct me ;)
Correct, but just as a matter of clarity, it's important to be clear
that the exported SWF size is completely unrelated to how much memory
each 'instance' takes in memory.

You're right, Dwayne, for a lot of non-banner work, 8k vs 3k really doesn't
matter. It can, howeve
No. Classes add their size per SWF file, not per use. So yes, it's 8kb
added to the file regardless of the number of uses.

While I agree with the speed thing, let's just keep this in context -
it's so when you have a lot of tweenings going on at the exact same
time. A few tweens won't produce a difference in terms of framerate. If
they do, there's something else wrong.
Still, I think we should be glad there are so
Our artist made an animated character by over-lapping different body
parts. Strange thing, when I fade out the character using an
alpha-tween of the outer-most clip, I can see the overlapping parts at
the joints. It's like the alpha is affecting the individual parts
within the movieClip rathe
That's a myth. If he's tweening one or two things the tweening engine
makes absolutely no difference. The only differences in terms of speed
between tweening engines is how each of they handle a massive number of
property updates on a massive number of objects. So there's absolutely
no problem
It's time for me to get a new computer and I have heard so many horror
stories about Vista that I am thinking of switching to Mac. What tools are
people using to develop on the Mac. I mostly Flash IDE, FlexBuilder,
FlashDevelop, SWFMill, SWFDump, HaXe, FlashTracer - are these available on
Mac? Als
This IS as accurate as possible. Technically, your mouse never was on 2,
3, 5, 7, 8, etc. Remember mouse reading on the hardware works at a
certain frequency, and everything in between is lost.
You can always interpolate between read values. That'll give you the
"imtermediary" positions where
