ActionScript 2.0 :: FMX Sliding Windows Tutorial?
Apr 13, 2003
I must stress before I start that I am very new to flash and actionscripts. I have just completed the sliding window tutorial on this site. [URL]..I am wanting to use it for my own site. My problem is that when I scale everything by 500% and make my movie bigger, the windows don't scroll the same. I understand that I have to change the values in the script on the invisible buttons but I don't know what to use. I tried putting in numbers in by trial and error but I can't get them all working.

I sent an email to pom regarding a tutorial that he wrote, but the email was bounced and he hasn't replied to my PM. I have followed both of pom's tutorials that involve experiments with perspective in Flash, but I have encountered a problem while attempting to duplicate a movie clip symbol in the second tutorial ([URL]). I have a single instance of the "ball" movie clip symbol appearing at random positions. However, I cannot seem to successfully duplicate the symbol instance at random positions using the loop that pom provided:

original: I really just need to figure out how to center the pictures. here is what I did I have modified the tutorial that I finished to have a bigger stage for bigger pictures. Everything is working properly but the pictures are displayed on the left side, I want to have them centered in the stage for the images, after clicking on the thumbnails, plus my images are different sizes as well. ranging from 200x410 to 744x410 but all are the same height of 410. i will post up what I am talking about at the end. I believe it is something within either the action script or the xml coding that allows the position of the image to be differently? please help here is what i am talking about[URL] Continued: Here is my coding in action script:

I'm having an issue with the PDF displaying outside the viewable area of the mx:HTML control in Flex. When the application starts up - the mx:HTML is set to a certain size, but can be enlarged if the application is maximized. These are the following conditions to replicate it: Issue only happens in Windows (Windows 7, not on Mac) Issue only happens with Reader X installed (not with previous versions) Issue only happens when running the built app, does not happen in debug / development mode from FlashBuilder

I'm running ant to compile a Flex application, and the build keeps failing when running it on a windows command line. Other people in my team can successfully run the very same build under mac and linux. This is the error shown in the command prompt:
[Code]...
All tokens are set in corresponding build.properties and filter .properties files (and, as I said before, it compiles perfectly under mac and linux). The windows version is 7 Ultimate, FLEX_HOME is set as an environment variable to the Flex SDK 3.5 (the 3.5.0.12683 build that comes with Adobe Flash Builder Burrito). ${compiler.fork} is set to false, to avoid an issue with the SDK and the source files being in different logic drives.

I'm using Flex in Flash Player 10 on Windows, using FileReference to load a file into memory, as below.My issue is that when a file is locked by Windows, my FileReference is not giving me any feedback that the file is inaccessible--it simply never dispatches any events after my calling load().Does anyone have insight into how to tell that Flash Player is unable to open the file?
var fileReference:FileReference = new FileReference();
private function onClick():void {
fileReference = new FileReference();
fileReference.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, onSelect);

I have a mp4 file which is to be used in an application. Currently i am in the stage of figuring out the technology to be used for this job. I am familiar with flex and am hoping that i be able to use it for the application. But i can not figure out a way to play the file in flex. I have been able to play the file only in windows media player and that required the installation of three codecs : Mp4Audio.ax, Mp4Video.ax, Mp4Src.ax.
As i see it, it will be very convenient if i could embed a windows media player plugin in flex or i could specify the audio and video codecs in the flash player

I have a flex application (.swf) and want to create a projector file. When I choose File-> create projector I get the .app file because I work on a Mac. I know I can create both projector formats for windows and mac using the export feature in Flash Professional. But this is not an option since it's Flex.Is there any other way rather than switching to windows to create the file?

I am working on a short animated story, which has a scrubbable timeline and chapter headings. I used TimelineMax for sequencing it. For the most part, it is working fine. I am seeing some strange behavior that pop up, though: sprites disappear, functions stop responding to user input, seams of the sprites become transparent -- all small issues but pretty hard to nail down because they happen in Mac only.
So I am wondering what is wrong with Flash, and why it misbehaves on a Mac?

we're having a strange problem on a project here. When we use NetConnection in combination with a NetGroup to initiate communication between two local AIR applications on Windows XP, they always both connect to the NetGroup succesfully and detect each other as neighbors. However, on Windows 7 both applications connect succesfully to the NetConnection and NetGroup both don't detect each other as neighbors.To reproduce this problem, here are two AIR applications:[code]
These applications can connect and send message to each other without a problem on Windows XP. On Windows 7 however, they cannot.Does anyone know why this wouldn't work on Windows 7 and what steps can be taken to make it work? It's critical to our project that this works.In some cases, the applications take quite a long time to detect each other as neighbors (up to 15 seconds in some cases), in other cases they detect each other immediately. Does anyone know what could cause this delay?

tool which takes the form of a sliding bar.(top left of page)What I'd like is to have it so that as the bar slides up and down the image to the left of it changes. Then when you release the button the corresponding page loads.hat the code would look like for this sort of effect?I'm not sure where to start, or if maybe I'm over complicating it and I should just go with a row of buttons or something?

Stuck trying to get a pretty simple thumbnail gallery to work: Basically it's just a movieclip of horizontal thumbnails (50 in total, masked so only 10 are shown at a time) with a left and right arrow on the sides, which when clicked should make the thumbs smoothly shift left or right to display the next or previous 10 thumbs (fixed at 1-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50). They should smoothly ease into place, and the left and right buttons should disable when you reach the left or right limit Is there a simple way of doing this?

I am trying to make something like this : A flash movie with the dimension 400 X 400. I have made two movieclips says "Map" which is 800 X 800 and another "mask" which is 100 X 100. I have placed the "Map" movieclip on the stage on one layer and the "mask" movieclip on the other layer. I gave mask action to the map layer so now i can just view 100 X 100 area of the "Map" on the stage.
I have given the following action on the frame : startDrag("mask", true, 0, 0, 800, 800);
so that the mask will move with the movie on the stage.
Now the problem which i m facing is : I dont want to resize the movie according the window size and also i dont need scroll bars, i want to publish it in the size 400X400, so what happens is that i can just move the "mask" into this much area and as the "Map" movieclip is 800 X 800 hence i cant see the right and bottom part of "Map".
Hence now what i would like to have is that when i move the "mask" from left to right the "Map" movie clip should move below it from right to left upto its width and the right end of the stage and vice versa. In the same manner when i move the "mask" from top to bottom the "Map" movie clip should move from bottom to top upto its height and the bottom end of the stage and vice versa.

The tutorial shows how to make the movie clip slide on the horizontal (x) but how do I configure the code to use both horizontal and vertical (y)?I know this is asking for alot but I really am a novice at this actionscript stuff Do I just add a dest=" _root.ynew ;" and "pos = this.y ;" some how to this code?
stop () ;
MovieClip.prototype.move2 = function () {
dest = _root.xnew ;
pos = this._x ;

I'm working on a sliding featured gallery like Kongregate.com or Hulu.com uses on their home pages. What I have so far is here:URL...Where I am running into trouble is in the loop around/wrap around areas. My next and previous buttons tween to the next/previous item just fine. However when I get to the last/first, it gets tricky.What I have done when you get to feature #5 is check for the x position, and if I am going beyond 5, I reset it so that we pull in #1 instead. The problem is that this scrolls in #1 from the wrong direction. (Take a look at the SWF above to see what I mean).If I shoot further back in negative X direction and scroll that way, I'll end up with blank space at the start of the move. I could dupe #5 and put it there, but then I have two versions of feature #5 (and #1 for the wrap the other way) that have to be maintained. (Note these will be more than just a blank square obviously, they will each be movie clips that do things).
Possibly that is the correct way? Or am I going about this the wrong way. Would it make more sense to dynamically create, scroll and remove the clips on each button click? (I'm not sure how I would do that exactlyI suppose I could also add the buttons via actionscript too, instead of placing them in a layer and them zipping them to the top, although I'm not sure it matters much.[code]Also one other thing, I note that if the user clicks one of the buttons before the tween completes, it throws the whole thing off (since it grabs the x value when clicked) - is there a way to disable the buttons until the tween is complete?

I've done the basic sliding thumbnail bar with the rollover and clicking on the thumbnails before, but I'm trying to replicate the one on the [URL] homepage.
I wanna do exactly what they've done. I want to have the scroll bar below the slider that they user can use. And I want the thumbnails to pop forward and have info pop out for the selected person. I didn't know how to make the thumbnails readjust themselves when the popup came out. But I'm not sure how to add this into my basic slider.
