I'm just trying to find the size of a array I created. I know how to find the size of the swf and movieclips with getBytesTotal but that doesn't seem to work for arrays. anyone know of a method to find this or some built in function. I searched google and other search engines but only find the getBytesTotal command for use with MCs.

I'm working on a childrens game (flash as3) in which stories, poems, songs, etc are read to the child. There's a voice recording reading/singing the text, the text highlights as the words are spoken/sung. The child may toggle on and off the voice and word highlighting independantly. The child may also opt to make their own recording. Now said recording works fine. I'm able to capture it from the mic and the child may play it back no problem. The issue lies in that the client wants the child to be able to save this recording to a web server.
I thought I had the issue solved by using a URLRequest and URLLoader object. The mp3 was showing up in the specified folder on the webserver. I played it with a media player and it worked. The child could also load said file no problem. THEN, when I tried it via browser(instead of flash player) I got the dreaded sandbox error. The only way such an operation with said objects can occur in a browser environment is if it's user initiated via a dialogue window. This is children were talking about and we're not saving locally anyway.
The child is provided 3 save slots which they click on (WSprites). Which technically is user initiated, but flash has no way of knowing that. The 3 save slots hold the sounds in memory and only change when the user records or loads. When the user saves, they get sent off to php to save. Now I did try using js as a middleman, but I ended up losing my bytes in the process and my js and php are probly the weakest areas of all my programming skills.

Our web application has a feature which uses Flash (AS3) to take photos using the user's web cam, then passes the resulting byte array to PHP where it is reconstructed and saved on the server. However, we need to be able to take this web application offline, and we have chosen Gears to do so. The user takes the app offline, performs his tasks, then when he's reconnected to the server, we "sync" the data back with our central database.
We don't have PHP to interact with Flash anymore, but we still need to allow users to take and save photos. We don't know how to save a JPG that Flash creates in a local database. Our hope was that we could save the byte array, a serialized string, or somehow actually persist the object itself, then pass it back to either PHP or Flash (and then PHP) to recreate the JPG. We have tried:

View 2 RepliesI'm using Flex 4.5 in a Mobile air for android application. So, Using the Camera/Camera roll [URL]I want to do a simple upload using amfphp Note: Since this is how you get pictures on devices, i cant use the filreference because it wants you to get the pictures using "browse" which cant be done on android or ios My plan is, after I select a picture or capture one with the camera, in the event I can get the local url to the picture that was taken like this:

I'm putting this in the imageURL var (i'm assuming i should make it into a byte array to transfer it, im not exactly sure this is my first time making something like this)Here's how i'm taking that image, making it into a byte array, and using amfphp to send the upload to the server:

But i'm getting an error NetConnection.Call.BadVersion.This is the first time im trying something like this so im not even really sure if im going about it right. All the examples I find online go about using the fileReference class, but that seems to require me to use the "browse" method, and im on a mobile application that uses the camera and camera roll to grab pictures off the device, and im not sure how to incorporate that into the fileref class. I figured i could just get the byte array and send it to php myself and it should be just fine.

I'm trying to prepend the byte array of a sound object to a captured microphone sound byte array.
It works, but the extracted sound object get pichted down and doubled in length. I guess this is because the byte array of the sound object is in stereo, while the mic byte array is in mono.
I have this:
sound.extract(myByteArray, extract);
myByteArray now contains the stereo data. How can I turn this to mono
UPDATE:
Here's a working solution:
existingByte.position = 0;
var mono : ByteArray = new ByteArray();
while(existingByte.bytesAvailable) {

So, I have a dynamic text box, which, naturally, being dynamic, changes. What I would like to figure out is how to tell when the changing text is larger than the textbox holding it. Of course, just because it is a certain number of characters long doesn't mean it will be larger than the textbox holding it. Twenty of the letter "w" is larger than twenty of the letter "i" So, is there a way to tell if the textbox isn't large enough to hold its text?

I upload a file using adobe air HTTPService.Send method by passing byte array of file content read using FileReference. When I write the set of bytes from the server side (php) it writes the details of the byte array (buff) to the file instead of contents of the file like "endian=bigEndian&position=0&bytesAvailable=61127&length=61127&objectEncoding=3" . Below I have included the code that how I read the file and send it to server. Is there anyway that i can directly pass the data in the byte array to send method?

how to find the file size in the swf header. I am looking at the swf file format spec v10 pdf and it says that "The FileLength field is the total length of the SWF file, including the header. If this is an uncompressed SWF file (FWS signature), the FileLength field should exactly match the file size. If this is a compressed SWF file (CWS signature), the FileLength field indicates the total length of the file after decompression, and thus generally does not match the file size. Having the uncompressed size available can make the decompression process more efficient."
If I were to look at the hex value of a swf what would I look for to find the file size?

I have a flash app that is 1000 wide 800 height.When i open it in a webpage or full screen it things obviously get bigger but also i see more to the left and right of the screen and up and down.
Is there a way to find out the new size? as i want things to float to the very edge of the screen so i can perform a wrap around function making them appear on the other side of the screen.
how I can find the original stage size of an SWF that has been loaded into a parent clip via MovieClipLoader? In the child clip, there are a number of elements that extend beyond its stage, so when I check the _width and _height properties, then they include the stage overlap.
I tried using mc.getBounds(), but it doesn't seem to give me what I'm after.
How do I determine the pixel size of the stage or viewing area defined in Flash CS4? Isn't it just stage.width and stage.height?
Okay now the long version:
I'm working on a script in AS3 and Flash CS4, and I'm doing some art by code.
I wanted to make a progress bar for a preloader, so I made a Preloader MovieClip and on that movieclip I drew a white rectangle, and I told it to appear at stage.width / 3 and stage.height /3. It drew it at the top corner instead, and after a lot of experimentation, and reading the ActionScript 3.0 Language and Components Reference I found that a display object's width and height are defined by their contents, and you can't manually alter them to be bigger. So I figured that I could make an invisible rectangle the size of the stage in the background of the preloader MovieClip and that would make it the size of the stage, but I realized that I would still be stuck manually setting the stage size to match what I wrote in ActionScript. Untill the MovieClip containing the Preloader was added as a child object to the stage, which would then set the stage.width and stage.height to match those of the contents.
Now that I talk about it, I suppose I'm looking for the size of the perspective or viewing window, rather than the stage. The stage can be larger or smaller than the viewing window in Flash, can't it? But the perspective of the window is finite, unless you change it.
The thing is I'm sure I've polled this information to position an object at the center of the viewing area before, but I can't for the life of me remember how. So, that's what I'm asking; how do I find the dimensions of the viewing area, so that I can either position an object at the middle, or create an object the size of the viewing area, by code?
