I am using a preloader in my movie. Say when 60% of the movie gets loaded, Is it possible to play the initial 60% while downloading the remaining 40% of the movie in the background.

I'm trying to figure out how to get the time remaining of an flv.
I currently can get the total time and the current time.
Code:

I'm trying to make a few movieclips grow when you rollover them and the shrink back down when you rollout. I tried using swapDepth to make it so each clip would stay on top. But then when I try to instruct its root movie clip to go back to frame 1 (which is blank with a stop command), it remains on the stage. Here's the code for the movie clip to grow/shrink/swapDepths

how to get the current remaining time of a song and update that every second so I can display it on a textfield
View 3 RepliesI have two timers. The first once counts down from 10000 milliseconds and stop as soon as the user clicks a button. Then the second one counts down the same until the user clicks again.
[code]...
What I want to do is take the remaining milliseconds from both timers and add them together to get a total.
[code]...
Say both timers ran for 3000 milliseconds, then that would remain 7000 milliseconds left and then both added together would give me a number of 14000. But when I trace the variable of the two timers added together, totalTime, all that I get returned is [object Timer].Does anyone know how I can convert the remaining milliseconds of my timers in to Number or somewhat so I can add them together and basically do maths on them and output the results.
I have looked at the Timer Class documentation and there does not seem the Timer Class provides a method or variable that returns the remaining time. I was wondering if there is a way to determine how much time is remaining after a timer has been started?
View 3 RepliesI have the following algorithm:
if(textfield has no space left / full of characters till width) do something else keep adding characters
Now, the issue is I don't want the text field to be limited to X number of characters, but the actual width of the characters.
Is it possible to remain an on going animation on a child MC while moving the MC to the stage (same level as its parents)
If by using removeChild and addChild again the animation will not be consistancy.
I have created 5 movieclip buttons and added them on the stage. How can I disable the button that is clicked and enable the remaining and so on..?
View 8 RepliesMy html has 3 parts which I want to appear vertically in the page: header swf footerThe header is 100px high and 100% of width. The footer is 25px high and 100% of width.
I want my swf to take up the remaining vertical space on the page while maintaining its aspect ration of 4:3. I'd also like automatic redistribution of space to occur whenever the page is resized.
I have attempted to put the swf into the page using dreamweaver's built in methodolgy cs4's method when creating a corresponding html page swfobject 2My swf ends up with the dimensions of the page (without regard to the header and footer). The result usually involves the other content being off screen and unwanted vertical scrollbars. Often, regardless of my choice of showall or exactfit, i get distorted aspect ratio.
Is there an approved or standard way to achieve automatic resizing of a swf based on the remaining available unused height in a page?

View 7 RepliesI've been toying around with this RepublicOfCode tutorial and changed a few things here and there.For example, I wanted a play/pause button in stead of seperate buttons. And I wanted a stop button so people can actually stop the music.Now here lies the problem, play/pause works BUT after I've stopped the music, the music will start again with the play button but it wont pause, it will just start the song again and again and again... On a side note, I wanna try to add a volume slider, seek bar, time remaining, and possible (if i can figure it out, probably also has to do with the XML) a playlist.[code]

View 7 RepliesI need a small help on Flex Line Chart. I am using FlashBuilder 4 and doing a simple application in flex. I am displaying a graph with 10 random values and based on the values i am trying to change the itemrenderer values like CandlestickItemRenderer and BoxItemRenderer. Now my requirement was, if the values are > 10 i want to show my chart with CandlestickItemRenderer else i want to show the remaining spots as BoxItemRenderer. I am failing to do this. Either i am getting all the shapes as BoxItemRenderer or CandlestickItemRenderer. i am sending the code as a text file along with this.
View 4 RepliesI have an array of say, food products. The array is full and fully visible at first. I have a filtering system, by which I can eliminate, one at a time, a certain category. So let's say that I disable the "fruits" category. The fruits disappear and I'm left with "holes" in the array. Up to this point it's all good, I can handle it. The problem is that now I want to close these "holes" by moving the remaining items around. And I have no idea how to calculate/formulate the logic of this movement.
View 4 RepliesI can't seem to find a way to get more than the initial set of 4 stage3Ds provided by flash. I have tried instantiating a new one using it's constructor and then adding it to the stage by simply pushing it to the list stage.stage3Ds.push(new Stage3D());
but this doesn't seem to be working as my eventListener for the Event.CONTEXT3D_CREATE is never called (it is if I use one of the default Stage3Ds. workaround or a way to accomplish this?
I have developed some code whereby the positions of objects on the screen are represented by two values and I store all this data in three arrays like so:

initialYoffset = new Array('100,-170','10,50','20,100','50','-200');

View 2 RepliesI'm using FLVPlayback to display a flv in a swf embedded in html. Autoplay = false, wmode = transparent / windowless. I've got it working (not yet set up the way I'd like, but that's another issue), but the way the flv displays when the page loads is a problem. The controls skin is clearly visible, but the movie frame displays as a white box on a white page, barely visible except for a faint outline.
I guess the white screen simply represents the first frame of the flv. Ideally I'd like to see either a black box or the first frame with meaningful content. Is there any way (say with ActionScript) to advance and stop the flv to a particular frame? Or is there some other way to not see a white box here?
See attached screen grab detail. If it helps, here's my html.

I have the following code:
Code:
for(var i:int = 0; i<buttons.length; i++){
buttons[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myFunction);
}
[Code]....
I would like to add a code that would add an initial call to the function myFunction, but because it is listening for a MouseEvent, it has to wait until a MouseEvent happens (CLICK)
I thought that I could add a parameter to a function call like this:
Code:
myFunction(e:Event, buttons[0]);
but that did not work.

View 3 RepliesIf I have a textfield instanciated from the document class with a base .string set as for example "4444" and BEFORE adding it to stage, I change the .string value to say "1234", when I test the swf, I can see the 4444 for a very short time changing for the 1234.I didn't change the value after adding to stage so I don't get why the display number is changed after being added to display.How to force it to add to stage (display itself) only once the initial changes to his properties are done?
View 3 RepliesI've been trying to solve this problem for a number of days now but I must be missing something.
Known Variables:
vi = Initial Velocity
t = Animation Duration
d = Distance.
end velocity should always be zero
The function I'm trying to create: D(0...t) = the current distance for a given time
Using this information I want to be able to create a smooth animation curve with varying velocity (ease-in/ease-out).
The animation must be able ease-in from an initial velocity.
The animation must be exactly t seconds and must be travel exactly d units.
The curve should lean towards the average velocity with acceleration occurring at the beginning and the end portions of the curve.
I'm open to extra configuration variables.
The best I've been able to come up with is something that doesn't factor in the initial velocity.
I've set-up a menu using the actionscript below tracking bt up / down states (credit - thanx Barn:[URL]..
But I'd like to adapt the script to have the home button (mvcBtn0) initially set by default to the down state - and then revert to the up state as soon as another button is pressed.
I've tried various adaptions sending the clip to down state on load and then the up state once another button is clicked - but none are working.
