Instead of treating dynamic text in my website using the "scroll" method, I would like the user to be prompted with a "more" button that would continue until all of the text was read.The text would be changing often, so it's important the actionscript determines the length of text.

I would like to position relatively a scroller in my application like below.When I scale the image, I resize the scroller...
<s:Scroller width="50%" height="50%" >
<s:Group>

I have a video player that is working great - but am trying to change the XML play list from one that is prev/next page to a scroller. I don't just want to straight up post it since it was purchased from another site.

change vertical scroller to horizontal scroller?
View 2 RepliesI would like to use it as a horizontal scroller for an image gallery. Just to clarify a horizontal dragger and a horizontal stage motion for image viewing.

I can find tons of articles/tutorials on custom scrollers but none of them actually replace the browser scroller. If the browser is made smaller the custom scroller and the browser scroller are there. [URL]...
View 1 RepliesI have a series of frames one the timeline. Each frame has a graphic and a mouse click leads to the next frame. Think Myst.
[Code]...
When the middle frame is returned to, clicks no longer change anything. I believe that the actions of the 'left' frame are replacing the one's in the middle frame so then it is told to gotoAndStop to itself.
I'd like to know if that is indeed what is happening and how I can make it stop.
1. Can i put another set of actions in frame 2 of the actions layer?i tested but it doesn't seem to work..it has 836 rows of code and it's getting annoying when tryin to search for a function..
2. I am not that familiar with classes, i usually put all the code into movieclips or in actions layer.. i am not sure if i can call a function from a actionscript class..
3.I am curios if there is any way i could specify an alternative for the if statement like in this pseudocode:
if ( apple is not clean BUT is tasty)
{
eat(apple)
}

i'm trying to build a flash site and ran into a problem... i have a gallery page with a bunch of page numbers at the top. when you click on one, a movieclip loads of some images coming in.so the problem i'm having is that i made a little animation for when you roll the mouse over the page number (they scale up when the mouse is over, scale back when the cursor moves away)... what it's doing is when you roll over, it goes to a certain frame in the timeline and plays that animation.that's all working cool, but i need it to not do that once it's clicked on. so basically when you actually click on a page number, the over script should stop until you go to another page... here's the code i've written,
function over(event:MouseEvent):void {
this.gotoAndPlay(30);}
function out(event:MouseEvent):void {[code].....

View 1 RepliesA Video-loop at 25fps imported to flash, embedded, plays fine if the project fps also is 25fps.But i also want to add a 3D Carousel menu, but at the projects 25 fps it goes a little bit choppy when rotating quick.So I try to change the projects fps to 50, and voila, the menu looks good but the video plays to fast.The video should alternate between clips randomly, and the clips has to be preloaded, thus its embedded in the swf (...or could this be done with flvs?)5-10 clips.
View 2 RepliesI'm working on a new portfolio, full flash website for myself and so far I've been working on my Macbook Pro almost entirely. The website is somewhat heavy in graphics/animation however nothing too big, all pages are around 500kb or less. Running the website on my MAC in any browser it looks perfect, the animation runs smooth, everything goes great. However, when I try to run the same website on my PC which is pretty good, the whole website feels a little bit choppy and laggy and I'm not sure why. It feels like it chokes for 1/4th of a second every like 2-3 seconds, lower FPS basically.
View 11 RepliesI have an application that I support but did not create. I need to test it on FMSS 3.0 but the developer version has both Streaming and Interactive Server enabled. Is there any way to disable the Interactive Server in the Developer Edition so I can confirm the application works on Streaming Server without influence from Interactive Server? The application works on the development server but when I move it to the production Streaming Server, it does not respond the same.

View 2 Replieswhen i'm coding directly on the timeline, i usually create a var like this:
Code:
var home:MovieClip = this;
so i always have something to reference the main timeline's scope. how could i do this in a class? delegate.create gets a little confusing.
i tried a few things like the following:
Code:
class com.myClass
{
public var className:String = "myClass";
public static var version:String = "0.0.1";
[code]...
of course this is redundant because it'll scope just fine as parseNews();, but i'm just wondering why it's letting me scope it like this here and not in the onLoad declaration?
I'm animating various squares that needs to move "smoothly" on the screen.I've tried with the basic Tween and with TweenLite at 30 and 60 fps and the animation still choppy while at 90 fps looks better.

View 2 RepliesI have an AS2 .swf file called �sample.swf� This �sample.swf� contains a proportionally resizable background image. An external .swf file �content.swf� loads on top of it. The size of �content.swf� is 900x600 px and it is positioned to the absolute center (x and y) of the stage at all times.
So basically you open the page in a browser and resize it, the background image resizes as well and keeps its proportions and the content always stays in the absolute center regardless of the size of the browser. Here�s my problem, when I resize my browser to smaller than the content size (900x600), the content gets cut off. So what I want is to activate the scrollbars whenever the browser size goes under 900x600 in either directions (x,y) You tell me if it�s possible. I am open to other solutions as well.
Here�s my html code.
HTML Code:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-7" />

So I'm working on a as3 site that allows for users to signup/login, and I'm torn between using cookies vs SharedObjects to remember login info, I've been googling about it and I find a lot of people are super paranoid about LSOs, so maybe I should just go the regular cookie route?
View 10 RepliesI'm trying to load YouTube playlist feed data and I'm having some trouble with the ATOM version, which is the YT default. I'm having no problems with the RSS version, but the RSS takes a few minutes longer to update when making changes to a playlist. I can load both and toXMLString(); both feeds but I'm getting an error when I try and parse the ATOM feed.So if the ATOM feed looks like this:
HTML Code:
<feed ... >
<entry>...</entry>
</feed>
Shouldn't I be able to get the following trace to work after the completed load where playlistXML is my new XML for the feed:
Code:
trace(playlistXML.entry[0].title);
I'm getting a "TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties." when I try and output that title data.And the RSS is like this:

I have been using the flashvars from swfobject for a long time to pass info into my swf for specific outcomes. I am just starting to publish everything using flash player 10 and wasnt able to get my variable to be seen by the swf. maybe i was doing something incorrectly with this new file? but i then took code from my older files and they didnt work either... then i published down to flashplayer 9 and it worked perfectly... ???
i am using swfobject 2.2 and my code for passing the flashvar is
// Flash Code:
Code:
var r:int = root.loaderInfo.parameters.varName == null ? 0 : root.loaderInfo.parameters.varName;

So I wrote a CS4 Illustrator plugin that loads a SWF as its user interface. Works great on the mac, but I am having a problem on Windows:The .swf needs to be compiled with the "-use-network=false" option set in order to access some files on the local machine. HOWEVER when that option is set, all of my "Externalinterface" calls break down. When "-use-network=false" is not set, then I can't access the local files, BUT my "externalinterface" calls (which communicate with the plug-in) work just fine.
The SUPER frustrating part is that
A) it works fine on the mac, and
B) on window, I don't even need to set the "-use-network=false" option for the swf to access the files IF the .swf is loaded in explorer.I'm not sure if using AIR is possible, but I'm trying that next since AIR can access both local and network files without all the sand box hokey-pokey.Also CS5 is not an option for me for this project.
