View 4 RepliesI want to know "is it possible to get the files names into an array from a specific path".
The flow go like this..
When i open the swf file --> browse the specific folder -> read the file names into an array --> show the file names.
I need to be able to load a jpeg/png image from disk and show it in flex and send it to a server as a base64 encoded string. But once the image file is loaded, in my flash.display.LoaderInfo object, the bytes property (type of ByteArray) contains more byte than the file content.

I am trying to do this also, only with one static image at the beginning and then the option to play the flv file: Here is where I am at the moment:In the .fla file in Flash CS4 Have the FLVPlayback Component and the FLVPlaybackCaptioning Component (with related .xml file) plus the Caption Button Component inserted, and all work fine.At this point have made the video with controls the bottom layer on the timeline. The FLVPlayback Component instance name is vid. Next layer is the still image as a graphic symbol.Top layer is the actions layer.On the actions layer I have place the code as shown in the previous answer, before you tweaked for the two videos:I get five compiler errors, which I have attached a screenshot of as a jpg file. I am very new to AS, understand code, but not AS code.

I have been working on a Flash movie that loads variable data from an external XML file and dynamically displays the item names in a menu which may then be clicked to display other dynamically-loaded content that corresponds to the menu item that was clicked. I have now come to a standstill in the project as there is something I'd like to achieve but simply cannot work out how. This is my first attempt at working with XML in Flash and one of my early attempts at using variables. What I'm trying to achieve is; once the user has viewed the item's content, they can simply click "next" and "previous" buttons to display all of the content for the next or previous items in the XML document.
I know it probably sounds simple and I'm sure some of you could achieve this in 5 minutes (!) but I can't get my head around some of the coding. I assume previousSibling and nextSibling would come into play here as well as some sort of functions which access arrays of data for the previous and next items, but I'm just not sure how to correctly put these things to use. Rather than post my code and example images of the stage up here on the forums, I've created an html page here: [URL]
I want to have an swf load an image file in an image container within the swf from the querystring. 1. In the query string I'd like the extension of the image file to not show:
2. In the swf I might have more then one place where the same howdy.jpg loads, but in different sizes. Which method would keep the aspect ratio of original and resize to fit varying container sizes?
3. I have some javascript parsing code with an swf example that I got from this page. [URL] But when I tried to alter the fla for my use it didn't work. I wasn't able to find 1 line of actionscript in the query.fla.
In CS5, when typing names for each layer in the Timeline, it only shows a certain number of the characters. Is there a way to see more of the characters to see what the names of each layer are?

View 5 RepliesI'm trying to load a radar image over a google map. The problem is, I'd like to load the image from a local file. I understand how to do this remoteley via a url, buit not from a local file. I've read something about embedding, but I don't know what embedding means. I'm going to need this image to change, and eventaully want to have a loop of images playing over the map. Below is what I have so far.

View 3 RepliesI wrote these functions which I use in conjunction to scale down some BitmapData and save it as a PNG. However, the scaledImage.draw(originalImage, scalingMatrix, null, null, null, true); line with smoothing set to true does not have the intended smoothing effect when I save the bitmap data as a PNG using the second function. The resulting image file is not antialiased at all. Is there anything I'm doing wrong here?

View 1 RepliesI have an image on the stage which is bigger than the stage itself:
The stage is 700x550
The image is 2100x1650, and it's registration point is at its center, if I remember correctly.The initial location of the image on the stage is 350,75.I want to make sure that the user will be able to drag the image, as long as the edges of the image doesn't show.here's what I did:
mapRect = new Rectangle(0-mapMC.width/2, 0-mapMC.height/2, mapMC.width, mapMC.height);
and later on:
mapMC.startDrag(false,mapRect);
The the top and the left of the image are bounded well, but as far as the bottom and the right side of the image.
