View 1 RepliesIs it possible to create a command line Abode Air app? I know thats not the intended use of the framework, but I have a lot of utility code written in as3, and I have a need to programatically run some utility functions from another app (not flash). I know I can pass command line parameters to the Air app, but I would like to avoid having a window pop up while the calculations are being made.

View 2 RepliesSo I read through Kirupa's XML/Flash thumbnail gallery tutorial and have since modified some of its actionscripting to display my online design portfolio. How do I make it so that 'LAUNCH PROJECT' is a link? Here is the modified Actionscripting (I have one of each for the 3 sections):
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;[code]....
As you can see at the bottom of the actionscript, I added a gotoURL action, hoping that simply by making <launch> read <launch action="gotoURL" variables="http:url...> that it would become a link. I, however, have had no such luck. Perhaps I have to add something more. How do I make it so that <launch></launch> has the ability to link to an URL?
Well i have an adobe air which runs vlc-player at background as service. i check that in Windows Task Manager , the service runs when air application launches.

View 2 RepliesI'm creating a Intro and menu in Flash CS4 (actionScript 3, I'm new to AS, but experience with flash animation) for a CD based Product Catalog, the flash will open several different PDF's in Acrobat Reader, located on the CD.
Here is the code--
latentPrint_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, launchPDF);
function launchPDF(e:MouseEvent):void
{
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("test.pdf"));
}
Anyone have the experience of opening Acrobat PDF file using actionscript? If so, what actionscript you used?

View 1 RepliesI created a Flash interface that links to a bunch of PDFs. I'm currently using the "GetURL, _blank" function to open the PDFs, which opens them in a browser window. Is there a way to "tell" the PDF to open in Acrobat instead of a browser window?
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a Catalog for a company I'm employed with, but I'm having issues with the PDF files opening in a browser rather than Acrobat or Reader.The PDF files are all going to be on a CD, that once inserted launches a Flash .exe file which has a button for the end user to click and view the PDF. Now for Actionscript the code to open a PDF file is the same as opening a web page:
view_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.C... fl_MouseClickHandler);
function fl_MouseClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{

I'm constructing a website in Flash that is based on a DVD I'd put together in Director a few years ago.
One of the major components is PDFs files that need to be printed out. I've spent the last couple of days trying to find a solution, but seem to keep hitting brick walls.
It seems that most solutions only work with projectors running from cds rather than swfs on websites.There's been a couple of snippetts I've tried that are based on opening the pdfs in a new browser window. Aside from the fact that none of them have worked so far, a new browser window is not the ideal solution.I've set up the pdfs so they open the Print dialogue as now as they open in Acrobat. So what I really need is a way to get them open in Acrobat from Flash using AS3 (or whatever else may be the solution).
I have tried to open the file using the url script and it works. But I would liek to use the following but it doesn't work. I am on a Mac not sure whether this will work I have done what it says in thr instructions below.
on(release){
fscommand("Exec","filename.bat");
}
Then open notepad and type in the following START filename.pdf Then go to save as and type in a file name then .bat
N.B make sure the file that the flash button is opening it is the same name as your .bat file. They both have to be in the same directory.
I happily use the CS2 suite. I would like to buy and use Flash CS4 (unless CS2 is still available). Will I have compatibility problems?
View 1 RepliesI've included some simple shockwave animations in a pdf to be viewed onscreen.
The flash content seems to be disabling the arrow key (or any keyboard shortcuts for that matter) page advance in acrobat.
Someone in the Acrobat forum mentioned adding "stage.focus = null" but I don't seem to be having any luck with it.
The code I have in my first frame looks like this...
stop();
playButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startMove);
function startMove(e:MouseEvent):void {

I want to open up a pdf-document (included within the *.air-package) with adobe acrobat (or any other pdf-reader). I've followed this solution openWithDefaultApplication fails on files in application folder.
var _myfilename = "John_Doe-tax_return_2011.pdf";
// = my filename
//run:
var realFile:File = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath(_myfilename);
var tempFile:File = File.createTempFile();
realFile.copyTo(tempFile,true);
tempFile.openWithDefaultApplication(); //nothing happens ?
//end;
I've tested it all, so it's not a directory issue
trace(tempFile.extension)
// > tmp (?? tempFile.extension = "pdf" doesn't works)
trace(realFile.exists)
// > true (original pdf-document exists!)
Been planning on making a reader that can read in acrobat files but wasn't sure if it's possible.
If it is possible, could anyone give me a bit of advice on how to import the file

View 1 RepliesI'm new to Adobe Flash and especially new to Actionscript. Could somebody give an example and explain how to make and "Ignore *this* command if..." style command. Here's what I want to achieve:I have made a button (I may have done it in an odd way but it works) that moves when the mouse hovers over it and then moves back when the mouse moves away. I plan to put the finished product into Dreamweaver and have tried what I've done so far and it works. The problem is that if I move the mouse away before the first animation of the button has finished. It doesn't reach the *Mouse Out* command and then just sticks/stops in the bit where I have put a *stop* command.Basically, what I want is a way to ignore a command if something happens earlier on (such as the cursor being moved away).I've tried to explain the best I can without actually screenshotting it and copying commands.

View 5 RepliesI'm getting a PreloadSwf when launching my flash application in my browser.
The error message is: PreloadSwf paths must be local trusted: [bogus_path]
It's referencing a file that doesn't exist in a directory that doesn't exist. I've seen some posts on the web about how to configure PreloadSwf via mm.cfg, but my mm.cfg doesn't reference any path (just sets log levels).
How do I tell Flash Player to skip this preloadswf so I can launch my app?
