ActionScript 3.0 :: Calculate Age From XML Data; Calculate Dates

Way To Manually Set The Thumbnail Images?
May 26, 2009We bought this Flash template to save time:to make this siteI knew a template would limit us (especially since I only know HTML/a little CSS), but of course, we need a few tweeks. To save time (and if anyone is interested), I have uploaded the source files so you can see the structure here:The flash file is set up like this:Fla file for all the image souces & layoutIndex.html File has some sort of fancy javascriptText.html file is the editable file where non-flash-knowing dingbats like me can just edit the text and POOF! Magic!I know I have bastardized them from the original and some stuff is probably wonky.The biggest problem is that the "thumbnails" that you click on at the starpage are auto-generated, cropping the top left 100x100 square. I don't know why this is the case, and honestly, I think it looks awful.
Is there any way to manually set the thumbnail images, so they are cropped artistically rather than randomly? I asked the template tech support and they told me to "make my images 100x100". I did that for the first blue logo, and it looks like CRAP! Sure, I have the icon I would like, but when someone goes to browse the gallery, they get a 100x100 icon displaying instead of a lovely fullscreen pic.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Manually Creating MovieClips?

How can I do it using pure actionscript 3?

Oct 6, 2009I have a candlestick chart that is working great when the numbers being dealt with are large but when the numbers are small the vertical axis starts at the very top of my data and ends at the very bottom. For example if my max number in my XML is 12 and my min is 11 the charts top is 12 and the charts bottom is 11 with 11.2, 11.4, 11.6, 11.8 in between. How can I force the chart to do 22 to 1 on the vertical axis ({maxgraph+10} and {mingraph-10}).
View 1 RepliesFlash :: Manually Dispatch A MouseEvent?
Nov 10, 2011I have a menu that is built using its own AS3 class, when a link in this menu is clicked it fires a function according to some variables passed in from an external XML file.
The menu is made up of four subsections and I want the user to be able to jump to the parent of that subsection from a button that is completely separate from that menu.
What I'd theoretically like to do is trick the parent button into thinking it's been clicked when the user clicks one the buttons in this other menu.
Is this even possible? I'm tearing my hair out trying to think of a work-around, but I have to admit that it comes to passing variables, never mind passing them between classes!

Manually Create Each SWF File By Hand In Flash
Aug 12, 2009I've often seen on various websites headings that were created from Flash-based text. A good example of what I'm referring to is on vancouver2010.com , most notably on pages other than the homepage. I was wondering if anyone knows if there's a way to do this automatically with a text generator perhaps, or if I need to manually create each SWF file by hand in Flash if I wanted to do this. I've also seen headers created that appear to have come from a generator of sorts that are just images.
View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Manually Stopping Multiple Timers?
Aug 27, 2010I have a swf containing 3 scenes (all individual external swfs) at 10 second intervals. This is how I do it:
[Code].....
So after the 10 seconds are up, it goes to the next frame, where I have the same script, with another Timer variable (MyTimer2), loading another swf. Same for the 3rd scene.
All is fine, until I need to manually change scenes. I have 3 buttons, each representing a scene. When the user clicks on any of them, the scene will change to the one selected. I think you have a good idea how it works.
Now, as you might have seen it coming, the manual "override" messes up the original looping Timers. I currently have gotoAndPlay("frame") on each button, and this causes 2 Timers to run at the same time (the current Timer, and the new one).
Flex :: Adobe - Redraw When Manually Scrolling?
May 11, 2010I have two columns: the left one is a Canvas containing an mx:Tree and the right one is a Canvas containing a Canvas (to allow for scrolling) of some custom Sprites that go along with the tree nodes on the left. I made the right Canvas scrollable (horizontal and vertical) and I want the vertical scroll to also scroll the left Canvas so that the tree nodes line up with their representations on the right. The scrolling portion works fine and when I embed with wmode="window" there are no problems. Unfortunately, the customer requires dynamic HTML to overlap the Flash at times and when using wmode="opaque" or "transparent", there are issues. The scrolling still works, per se, but Flash does not seem to redraw either Canvas appropriately. The Canvases become out of sync and artifacts often remain on the right side.I catch a scroll event on the right column and update the scroll position on the left column like so:
public function onTimelineScroll(scrollEvent:ScrollEvent):void {
leftColumn.verticalScrollPosition = rightColumn.verticalScrollPosition;
}

C# :: Manually Creating A Flash AxHost.OcxState?
Jun 12, 2011I am trying to use the AxShockwaveFlashObjects.AxShockwaveFlash object in a console application in C#. To do that, you have to set the obj.OcxState to something. I looked at how the Forms designer does that, and it does it this way:his.flash.OcxState = ((System.Windows.Forms.AxHost.State)(resources.GetObject("flash.OcxState")));I looked in resources and there is nothing there.My question is, how can I create an AxHost.State manually so I can set the OcxState of my flash object to it?I see that the constructor of a State takes a Stream, int, bool, and a string. But I don't know what to put in the Stream (or the int, bool, or string) to create it.

Actionscript 3 :: Manually Orient The A Camera Object?
Mar 26, 2012I've been working on an iPhone app developed with Flash CS5 that will stream the camera view to a window on the app screen. The camera code is as follows:
cam.setMode(600, 400, 25);
cam.setQuality(0, 100);
vid = new Video();

I set the iPhone to stay in a portrait orientation constantly by setting stage.autoOrients = false and stage.setOrientation( StageOrientation.DEFAULT ). However, the camera still displays as if the phone was flipped 90 degrees to the left. How can I change it so the program stays in portrait orientation and the camera is oriented correctly?

Flex :: Manually Dispatch A Collection Change Event?
Mar 14, 2011I have a standard combobox that dispatches a collection event when the dataprovider finishes initializing:
my_cb.addEventListener( CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE, getMyStuff );
Then I have a custom component that also has a dataProvider. How do I get it to dispatch a collection change event when its dataprovider finishes loading?From what I've read, I can't do it. Will dispatching a propertychangeevent work?
UPDATE:I have a custom component that I call 'SortingComboBox' but it is not a ComboBox at all; it extends Button and I set is dataProvider property to my arraycollection, model.product (which is an arraycollection). how I use the dataProvider in that component:
code
[Bindable]
private var _dataProvider : Object;
public function get dataProvider() : Object
{[code]..........
In the createChildren() method of this component, I use this:
BindingUtils.bindProperty(dropDown, "dataProvider", this, "dataProvider");
The dropDown is a custom VBox that I use to display labels.
