ActionScript 2.0 :: Put A Little Notification Icon In Flash Animation?
May 27, 2008
I want to put a little notification icon in my flash animation that displays if I am online or not, with also the ability for a user to maybe click the icon and engage in a MSN Messenger discussion with me.
I want to create a notification icon like the the red one in the bottom right-hand corner of Facebook. I tried using a ToolTipManager to create a tooltip but since Tooltips appear in their own layer in Flex and, as far as I am able to figure, cannot be anchored to any part of the page. When the user uses the browser's scrollbar, they move.
I adopted the tsunami effect that i've got from this link [URL] but the problem is how can i plug the title on each icon, showing up on an icon when i point on it (on rollOver)
When I play a video in Flash, fist, it starts buffering and then, when the buffer is full, it plays. While the buffer is filling, the associated Video object automatically displays the fist video frame.Is there a way to receive a notification when this frame is available ? Because I want to hide the video component until there is an image to be displayed.Currently I handle the buffer full NetStreamEvent, so it displays when it starts playing. But now I need a larger buffer (10s), so waiting 10s to display something to the user is not good.
I need to show notifications at specific time through the app(iphone and android app). The app is developed fully in as3. I have tried using adobe native extension for notification but it is working fine on android but not on iphone. here is a link to it [URL]
PURE MVC - In my application there are multiple screens which are minimized like in windows desktop. Now each has different instances of mediator which have same notification. So if I do changes in one screen say press some button >> which sends some command >> to proxy >>then proxy sends notifications to mediator. But as multiple screens are active there it is showing changes in all screens as they are notified too by proxies. How to make sure that proxy calls to particular view component (mediator) and not for all live instances of mediators ?
User A and user B have same loaded swf file. What I want: For example, user A clicks button, and user B see notification "User A clicked button" dynamically.
Basically what I am trying to do is show a medical cartoon, that at various times, the user can click on a button to say "I want to read more about this point later". This will allow them to continue watching the cartoon, and at the end be taken to an HTML page that shows them the list of points they selected for further research. It's like creating a shopping list for further reading. SWF output version 8 AS 2
just made a two page soundboard. its working great. problem is that i would like to give the ability to save sounds as ringtones/notifications. no examples of how to do that in as3 are available.
In PureMVC / ActionScript, after sending out notifications using send Notification or notify-observers, how do I make sure all the observers has received the notification and finished the work?On the other words, is sendNotification in synchronized way.
I want to create an AIR application in which i need to show the notification that when AIR application is minimize then at some interval of time message shows from the system tray similar like giving information. I have visited this LINK, its a nice component but tutorial is not that much good as component. I need to create a component like that or source is available from this site so modification in this component will also be acceptable. EG: When you minimize the Yahoo Messenger and some one is sign-out or sign-in then it gives notification i want component similar like that.
I'm building a class that displays a standard notification on the stage, let's call it NoticeHandler. Any class can send a string to this class throughstage.dispatchEvent.ErrorHandler listens for this event on the stage, and displays the notification box.This works fine, but now I've got a class that isn't present on the stage.How can I dispatch an event from this class to NoticeHandler? (1120: Access of undefined property stage.)
I'm running FMS 4.0.2. I have a server side script that will record a stream that is playing on a remote server. This script was running fine on FCS 1.5. When running on FMS 4.0.2 the stream starts recording fine, but after a few minutes it stops on its own with no event notifications on the stream. No NetConnection or NetStream events are registered. I thought it might have been been an issue staying connected to the remote server.
But then I wrote something to publish a stream directly to this server, and have a simple server side script record the stream on the same server, but the same thing happens - it stops after a few minutes with no notifications. Again the code works fine in older versions of FMS/FCS. This has obviously proven problematic that I cannot record a stream longer than a few minutes. The problem occurs both on streams published via the Flash Player (Sorenson Spark) and the FMLE (H.264).
I have a custom TextInput-based component for date and time with certain restrictions on what's considered "within range". But it's still fine to insert dates that are outside the range. When a user types in a date, on valueCommit, I'd like to be able to display a hovering notification to the user, to inform/warn them that the date is outside the accepted range.
I'm thinking of notifications ala the Validators, but I'd rather not use the Validator mechanism because it's really not validation, just notification. Something like a tooltip, but it will only appear if the user changed the value. Maybe an effect of some sort?
I'm talking about the icons that Flash game websites have to show each game.My method was play my game, take a screenshot, cut out the game part of the screenshot, shrink it to size, save as an image.
flash and working on two flash files for a website. They are small, 2.20KB and 4.10 KB. I am testing them on localhost and notice the object creates a box and an icon on the screen for both of them before they load and appear
I have created a flash movie(Interactive Map) for my company and I have been asked to print out the file with our company Icon instead of regular flash icon.
way to show a jpeg image while a Flash file is loading or better, if they don' t have Flash?
Problem is that when people go to a site and they don't have Flash and can't install it (ie: iPhone), they can't see phone numbers, address etc. which is why that came there. It would sure easier to push Flash if there was a way to have an alternate image to view.
I have a simple Map and geocoding sample in Flash using CS4.The problem is simple - I can retrieve a short list from the google search api, but when I try to generate the icons on the map using a loop, only the last icon is displayed. (ignore the house icon, it is generated earlier)
I feel I am missing something or made a stupid AS3 mistake (like treating it as if it was c#) - or even a stupid wood-for-the-trees mistake. The problem is in the last line of the code
I published an app to Air 2.5 (.air) from Adobe Flash CS 5 and afterwards also to Air Android (.apk) Since then I receive this error message if I try to publish as .air again:
Error creating files. Icon file is missing.
I tried to delete and recreate the folder and pathes but the error still appears.
Apple says that a 144x144 application icon is now required for the high-res iPad. But adding an <image144x144> element to the application descriptor file in Flex 4.6 gives an error 103: application.icon.image144x144 is an unexpected element/attribute.Is there a workaround for this? Perhaps through the iPhone InfoAdditions area of the application descriptor?
AS3 codes for adding social network icon/links on Flash site? I am designing a website at the moment in Flash and don't know what to do if I want to add social network icon/links on the page by using AS3 code
I've a carousel, that has got an image and a label that shows a description of the icon. It is done using It has got an ItemRenderer that renders the image above the icon description text. [URL].Up on click event I display the image and details of some text pertaining that image/icon.
Now I wanted to introduce a smaller 'x' icon on top right hand side of the icons so the user could remove the items he's not interested in from the carousel's list of items. This would dispatch a different event so removeIconEvent and clickEvent would be handled differently.
