View 1 RepliesApparently I am experiencing a can't find managedQuery or ManagedOperation named:getStudentprofile error
As I researched in some forums, I learned that the one causing this error is that I have duplicate instances of my data services in other components...So my question is how can I share my data services to other components? I don't have an idea how. These are the declarations that I need to share to other components:
parentinfoservice:ParentinfoService id="parentinfoService" fault="Alert.show(event.fault.faultString + '
' + event.fault.faultDetail)" showBusyCursor="true"/
studentprofileservice:StudentprofileService id="studentprofileService" fault="Alert.show(event.fault.faultString + '
' + event.fault.faultDetail)" showBusyCursor="true"/
I want to create a flash document that allows me to change the colous of an image using a colour palette of my own. I am a complete beginner and have no idea where to start this, hence i would need to know what to do and how to do it. I basically want the image to be a simple 2d image that i will create using different layers in photoshop and import them into flash, the layer images will all be one colour so the colour of the whole layer changes. so the colour palette will be on the side of this and when i click on an image and then a colour the image changes to the colour i clicked.
View 3 RepliesHe doesn't do much, just an integer what adopts a value between 0-100. I also have a line drawing function. He does lots of things and draws lots of pretty lines. All in just one colour mind.I'd like to be able to change that colour based upon the value of 'n', but I don't know how to convert this integer into the 0x000000-0xFFFFFF format used by linestyle. I can scale and convert 0-100 into a hex string but I'm stumped at how to prepend 0x to the string and how to use this within linestyle...Here's what I have so far....
//rgb = n*16777215/100;
//hex = rgb.toString(16);
//mcImage.lineStyle(1, 0x000000, 100, true, "normal", "none");

I'm trying to set the background of a createTextField(), BUT only for the lines, not the whole box.
If I use background and backgroundColor, it sets the whole text box bg to be white, but I only want the lines filled in.
For example, if you 'select' the text on an HTML page, only the lines are highlighted. Can this be done in Flash?

using better code to reduce file size.I've just done a colour change swf for a friend who has a clothing business. Basically it just needed to change the colour of the t-shirt according to button presses.I just wanted to know if there is a better way (more code i assume) to do the colour changes? I'm looking for a really compact file size because there's a lot more to go in it yet.

I want to create a preloader that is essentially a block of colour moving across the whole stage (610 x 300 pixels) - i don't want it to show the percentage loaded, just the colour will move across the screen and obviously when it reaches the other end, that will indicate that it has loaded all the external swfs and goes onto play them....

I am working with php, Flex and zend's AMF Server using this guide. I successfully managed to connect php with Flex but after 'reconstruction' of my MySQL query I get a little bit different objects - some of their values are NULL. That confuses Flex and I get an error from my RemoteObject:Was expecting mx.messaging.messages.AcknowledgeMessage, but received null I was searching around the web, and I believe it is happening because some values are NULL, but I couldn't find appropriate solution..
View 1 RepliesI have a conundrum with a design. Imagine the new Facebook timeline with lots of chronological posts attached to it. However instead of a straight line I need to make a randomized curved line with the content placed against it like so:
The complexity comes in because as the user scrolls more posts are loaded (facebook/google images style) so the line could almost be endless.
As far as I can tell my options are:
SVG - poor support in old browsers
Flash layer - embed will be huge and cause performance issues
Canvas - again the canvas will be huge and might cause performance issues
Question: Are there any cross browser gfx libraries which could do this, preferably with support for IE7/8? Or is there a smarter way to do this which I might be overlooking?
I am parsing colour codes that I get from a Flex(Flash ActionScript) application, then creating HTML div elements with that same colour. My Problem: The colours are all only 8 digits long. So they cant be RGB colour values can they? What color value format are they in? If I can figure the format they are in I can convert them to RGB. Maybe the last/first digit signifies its 0. alpha value?
PS: Should I convert the colours to RGB or something else?
This is an example of the colour code values I getting from the flash application:
this is the thing: Using "lineTo" i get a line drawn on stage when dragging a mc. Then i should have four mc (note1, note2, note3, note4) added randomly over this line. I mean, the line is drawn and then over some parts of this line, using x and y of some of the points drawn there, this movie clips should be added randomly. I can make the mc appear randomly, but always in the same point (mouseX, mouseY); i cannot access others x and y of the drawn line. This is my code (noteContainer is a sprite):
Code:
private function drawingAPI(event:MouseEvent):void{
sprite1.graphics.lineTo(mouseX, mouseY);
}

View 1 RepliesI'm very used to building things with hard references in mind using AS2. I build it knowing I'm going to put a panel A in _level0.panela_mc and interface B in _level0.interfaceb_mc and Login Prompt in _level0.login_mc.login_com, etc etc.. I always know these will exist and you simply reference them via _level0.whatever. What is the new strategy to managing references to lots of sprites?
If I build a panel in a class method, the var somepanel:Sprite = new Sprite() I create inside the method to hold the panel I'm making will be up for garbage collection if I don't make sure a reference stays intact (via either add it to a display list, add an event handler, etc..). The reference "somepanel" I made in the method will go out of scope at the end of the method as well. Should I expect to have needed to make a class variable ahead of time to store a reference to this? Should I be keeping a class genericObject:Object that holds a list of references to everything I ever make almost like a global registry?I'm just used to AS2. You just create a movieclip and when the method ends, the clip still exists and you know the _level0.ref.ref.ref will always exist and how to get back to it.
How are larger projects managed where content loaded isn't known ahead of time and the layout is rather dynamic. What are the strategies used to manage all that dynamic chaos?Lastly I'm so overly used to being able to target a movieclip using a single daisy chained list of clips, like: _level0.this_mc. that _mc.those_mc. I noticed I can't seem to do this approach with the getChild() approach. using someSprite.getChildByName('this').getChildByName ('that') .get ChildByNa me('those') doesn't work. How do you drill down into nested clips? I did notice I can do it one level at a time, such as: refA = someSprite.get ChildByName('this'); refB = refA.getChildByName('that'); refC = refB.getChildByName('those'); .. Is that what I'm expected to do?
i have a background and i want to be able to change the colours of it using a colour picker... if the MC was to cover the whole stage... how could i then get a colour picker and make it so it would change to whatever colour i wanted from the colour picker?
View 5 RepliesI'm now finding the great need for classes as my current project is getting quite gummed up with too much scripting in the main document. Becoming a real pain to find stuff with in my code.
So I started writing a class to takes an id passed to it from the main time line, accesses my mySql DB, pulls the related info and the processes it. What I can't seem to figure out, is how to pass a variable back to the main time line. The traces all work, so I know my class works. I've searched here and via google, but I must not be searching the right stuff because I get a lot of results with are usually very complicated questions that don't yield the answers I need.
so here we go. my main.fla (and question):

Just completed this project http:[url].... however I'm getting mixed results with the text using the LoadVars method mainly with line breaks. On the live and store pages there is a text link within the copy, any idea of how I can format that as xml tags as I'm finding that easier to control, the rest of the site mainly uses xml text just these two pages are using external .txt docs because of the urls. Surely there is a way?
