ActionScript 2.0 :: Send The Properties Of Shapes To A Text File?
Apr 21, 2007
I am making an application wherein i will need to send the properties of shapes to a text file. That is, its x, y, xscale, yscale, rotation etc. Now the thing is, there could be any number of such shapes. And then, i also need to retrieve those values to redraw them onto the stage.
So how do i go about it? i mean do i create a new loadVars() instance for each shape and send it to the php file? Will that not create a separate text file for each shape?? And how do i get those variables back into the swf? Do i create just one loadVars then or do i create a new loadVars for each shape? How will i know how many to create if there is a separate text file for each shape?
I'm very new to php so i have only a theoretical understanding of how it works. I only need to do the AS part of it.

I have a TextField on stage in a as2 version of Flash. Using the properties panel I'm trying to populate with text from an external file.
The text is in a file called about.txt located in the same folde as the swf.This is the contents of that text file:

I'm working on an Android Air app made in CS5.5 where user data is saved in the app's applicationStorageDirectory as a text file.
Is there a way to send this saved text file to another device's applicationStorageDirectory via Bluetooth/email/text e.g?
The idea is that the app "game" is saved on each person's device. When the game is over, I want the users to be able to compare their results. (I'll write some code to compute who the winner is via comparing the two results)

I'm pretty inexperienced with actionscript, and I'm having the hardest time trying to figure out how to load variables from a file and send it to a dynamic text box. The content of an external file, "varload.txt", is "name1=John". Here is actionscript of my flash file:

I have a question about shapes (i mean the flash.display.Shape class). Is it possible to import Shapes directly from the library as Shapes and not as Sprites/MovieClips? Shapes are supposed to be faster than MovieClips/Sprites, right? So why is it only possible to import MCs/Sprites from the library? I understand that generally shapes could be created solely by actionscript, but in my case the shape comprises of many points and is curved - so it's quite infeasible.
Is there maybe some sort of plugin to generate code that would draw the desired shape from a drawn shape in CS4? And a last one: Are there any benchmarks out there for performance comparison between sprites/mcs/shapes? How much performance do i loose by using a sprite instead of a shape?

I have a flash website template, Fla File as well as all the source files etc, I have some questions if anyone would be kind enough to help. I am new to Fla files so not sure what to do.
There is some text I managed to edit ok, but others I could not, it appears as if they started as text and have been broken apart and made into a shape? when i click you can only highlight each letter, but not change them. There are two of these, one flies in from left, the other from right.

I used to have a little text panel (that sat with the color, swatches, and align panels) that I was able to open up and edit text size, color, underline, etc with. It had a much better text editing ability then the properties panel, seeing as the properties panel does not even bother to allow me to underline text or to highlight and edit a single word in a whole text box. Now I don't have it, I can't find the damn thing anywhere, and I want it back. How can I get it?

I know Sprite.graphics is pretty easy to use, but I was wondering if there is any ready made libraries for drawing, resizing, moving, layering, etc.. of various display elements? Also, stuff like tool selection, maybe some effects, premade shapes. Anything you would recommend?

I have a simple text box with a UIScrollBar component added to it.
The text box properties are set to "input text, multi line.
The problem is when I want to change just one line of the text to a bold or a different color, the whole text box contents changes. I've tried different property setting for the text box itself with no luck.

I am trying to send a function to my SWF file via a HTML file, and every browser works fine except for Internet Explorer.The test file is supposed to animate the graph when you mouse over the word click, and come to a halt upon mousing off of it.Here is the example URL:[URL]
*** begin ***
<script type="text/javascript"> function sendToActionScript(str) { document["accelachart"].sendToActionScript(str); }</script>
<a href = "#" onmouseover="sendToActionScript('fast')" onmouseout="sendToActionScript('slow')">click</a>

Like I said before, it works on all browsers I tested (Chrome, FireFox, Safari) except for IE (7 or 8).

I have a task to upgrade a web site. I have a map of ND with some cities on it. I needed to add a new city to the SWF which did not seem to be hard (asuming I did it correct). The action on all the buttons for each city look like this except the name after the # is the city selected.
on (release){ getURL("locations_info.html#minot", "location_content");}
In HTML code snip that controls this looked like this :
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"

I need to create animations to serve two audiences: 1) human participants in an experiment, and 2) a program I'm writing that will "watch" the same scenes. For the first audience, exporting to SWF works just fine, but for the second "audience", the Export Motion XML option isn't working as expected.
As a test, I created an ActionScript3 FLA file in Flash CS4 with a stationary red circle in one layer and a green circle in a second layer that moves across 10 frames. When I export each of these layers, the files differ only in the "x", "y", and "symbolName" attributes.
How can I generate a single text-formatted file that shows the positions of each symbol in each frame?
