I have a dynamic text field that loads text from an external .txt file. I have attached the scrollbar component to that text field. Is there a way to hide the scrollbar untill the text is overflowing and the scrollbar is needed?This is a Flash UI Component Set 2 scrollbar and I am exporting in AS1.0.

View 3 RepliesI have a movie that is 2000px in height and some objects are duplicating vertically adding up by 100px. Say I have 5 objects so there is only 500px of content, is there anyway to use javascript from flash to limit the scrollbar to 500px instead of the full 2000?
View 1 RepliesIm trying to make some sort of hearing check to see if your ears are still functioning the way they should be. In my program the user is shown 9 images (for example an image of a cat) The images correspond to the 1 - 9 keys. (Im not sure if this is relevant but i'm programming for a Flash Lite application to be run on a mobile device)So let's say the image of the cat is number 1. The sound of the cat is being played and the user has to press the 1 key on his keyboard. However for this to be possible the script must pause and give the user the oppertunity to press the correct key.How can i make sure the script does not continue until a key is pressed after playing a sound.Below is my code so far:
Code:
stop();
var pressedKey = new Number();

It will not load LINK2 untill it gets to the mid frame of 130. How and what do i set up, so it goes straight to the midframe>>exit. last frame (exit).. is this _root.container.loadMovie(_root.currMovie+".swf");

View 4 Repliesalthough I do come from a OOP background. I have been asked to trial Flash and Actionscript 3 in particular - so I do come with a few preconceptions on how I expect actionscript to behave and I'm getting the impression that this is causing me problems.One issue I have is when I create a new instance of the class and assign it to a variable, subsequent background changes to that instance of the class are not 'picked-up' when referenced through the variable. I would expect that given instance of class could be assigned to many different variables and any background updates using one variable would accessible using any of the other variables. This doesn't seem to be the case.I have a test class, XMLDataLoader, which is coded as follows:
package {
public class XMLDataLoader {

I have a project both Flex and WWW and they are very closely connected. I want to put them both into into one SVN. I want to make revisions for changes that take place exactly both in flex and WWW at the same time. My question is that do I have to stick to "subclipse" (it would desynchronise changes for flex and WWW in one revision)? Would be possible to make revisions using only my tortoiseSVN without subclipse?
View 1 RepliesAs usual, I am tired of constantly developing something, only to realize that someone out there has already created something identical to it, and often times much better.
In an effort to avoid keep reinventing the wheel, I ask you all: What coding is needed?
What libraries do not yet exist out there that you would like to see, or would like mixed together in one easy to use package?
When embedding an swf (which plays external FLVs), you have quite a bit of code generated for the HTML embed.

I'm using IE9 on a Windows 7 64bit machine. For testing, i've disabled my flash add-on in IE9. I expect IE9 to ask the user to install flash when it's required.
So does firefox and chrome, but IE9 does not do this for me.
Example: I go to this site [URL]
The only thing I get to see is a black screen with a small error icon on the top left of the screen. Here i expect IE9 to tell me that i need Flash and ask me to install it.

I'm currently having trouble with the file size of my latest project. This due to the file size of certain movie clips in my library. This obviously causes a long preloading time.
To get round this I thought I could load these movie cilps when I need them so the user can proceed normally until they appear. These movie clips have a linkage with 'Export for Actionscript' selected but I haven't selected 'Export in first frame' because I want to export it later when they're needed.
how to ignore loading these movie clips until I tell Flash I want them loading. Bearing in mind these aren't external .swf's.
i need that the word stop moving when i make a rollover on it and in the rollout make the word continue with the falling, the fla file its attached
View 4 RepliesI have a preloader that is not appearing until the movie has loaded 80% of its size. Until then all I get is a white screen. I have heard that it may have something to do classes and objects being exported/loaded on frame one before the preloader gets placed on screen. I have been into the publish flash settings and changed the Export classes on frame to 2, but it has'nt changed anything. The things I have importing is the caurina Tweener class and an XML file, both of which have been told to come into the movie after frame 1. Any graphics or movieclips are already on the stage after frame 1. All the code is contained within my stage, there are no external .as files.The code for the preloader im using has worked on a previous movie, here it is
stop();
//preloader
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loading);

First, if I am doing a full flash site (like I did), what is the web standard now as far as load times? You see I have the site fully loading all content first, before the home page even shows. I have heard of dynamically loading content, for instance, different sections and subsections of the site, to be called on when clicked, as opposed to loading the whole site first.Now are there any benefits to dynamically loading sections as opposed to loading ALL of the content first? What is the pro standard? Is loadingsections/subsections/content dynamically something very easy to do, left for aprofessional, or left for a seasoned professional?Second, How important is the "title tag" in the html page that I am embedding the flash site in? I recently changed it from "Untitled", was leaving it as "Untitled" a rookie mistake?
Third, I have set up several email addresses for the client, including some web forms, that i used php file to send it to their email when they hit the send button; My question is...in the php file, I have it sending email to the client, and myself. I don't plan on reading their email, but thought I would effectively cc myself, for backup, in case something was wrong with their email, then I would have the client's email in case...so is that ethical or legal to do? What would web pro's do? I don't want to get in trouble, but I don't want to ask the client, because I don't think she will understand my reasoning.Lastly, if you were an instructor and I was your student that did the site I did as a final project, how would you grade it? Look at is as a critique of the site based on professional web standards and protocol so to speak.
I would like to attempt to accomplish the following using Flash:I have a graphic representation of an LCD screen. The screen represents a display used to control a machine. Think of it as a kind of calculator. There are numeric keypads (1 - 0) as well as "enter" and "cancel" and "up" and "down" arrows.The LCD screen is two lines by 20 characters.First; I want to display in the two lines the data that would be displayed on the actual device. I have 160 lines of data in an ascii text file.I want to be able to "import" the ascii text file into the two line display, and be able to "scroll" up and down using the arrow buttons. What want to accomplish is that if the data changes,I can simply update the text file that is called. I saw a similar flash application, but it used a slider thing. I don't want a slider. I want to be able to scroll lines of text into and out the two line display. That is the first part, anyway. The second part will be to be able to change the displayed number values with the number keypad and update the text file with the data. But for now, just to get the text file to display and buttons to make it scroll.

Like some others here, I am trying to write a music player that will play live stream (shoutcast mp3). I've tried both Flex (Flash Builder 4.5.1) and Flash CS5.5, it works great when I play the SWF on the PC, but when tranferred to the phone I hear nothing, although it is streaming, I assume that it is something to do with the permissions, but I'm not sure. The permissions I am using at the moment (for android) are as follows:

This first time when I call for the popup and enter info it works fine. Here's the problem: the next time I call the component pop up and click anywhere on the popup, including textInputs, the first the item in the array is automatically entered into the textInput where the user is supposed to enter the data themselves (BTW this textInput is also a autocomplete component).What I want is nothing to entered into textinput until the user inputs the data themselves. I've been tweaking with it for hours and im stumped. Here's the code: (this is main page)
