I have been trying to emulate a drag n drop program from flash and math site dragdroptour snap to location tutorial.It uses a placed variable set at the beginning of the script and updates it with a function used elsewhere. For some reason my version of the code will not update this variable could someone tell me where I've gone wrong? I've done this before in AS and think I used globalvars but I know you cannot do this in AS3 and I'm trying not to go down that route as I know it's bad practise.Its the paper1,2,3 vars that won't update with the release to drop functions.[code]

View 1 Repliesi just wanted to mention, that on the tutorial at this location: [URL]..the actionscript that comes bundled in the file, and the script you're supposed to copy and paste is missing a capital "L" on the command "LoadVars" i spent the better part of two hours looking for the problem with my script, and couldnt figure it out, i downloaded the .fla... everything, to no avail... but as soon as i capitalized that letter, everything started working smoothly...
i dont know if it's just my computer, or if other complete newbies are going to have this problem, i just thought i'd bring it to your attention.feel free to delete this post if i'm just crazy and it's only a problem with my computer edit: if there isnt a problem, maybe someone could explain to me why i was having such a problem untill i capitalized that L?

View 2 RepliesI sent an email to pom regarding a tutorial that he wrote, but the email was bounced and he hasn't replied to my PM. I have followed both of pom's tutorials that involve experiments with perspective in Flash, but I have encountered a problem while attempting to duplicate a movie clip symbol in the second tutorial ([URL]). I have a single instance of the "ball" movie clip symbol appearing at random positions. However, I cannot seem to successfully duplicate the symbol instance at random positions using the loop that pom provided:

View 1 Repliesoriginal: I really just need to figure out how to center the pictures. here is what I did I have modified the tutorial that I finished to have a bigger stage for bigger pictures. Everything is working properly but the pictures are displayed on the left side, I want to have them centered in the stage for the images, after clicking on the thumbnails, plus my images are different sizes as well. ranging from 200x410 to 744x410 but all are the same height of 410. i will post up what I am talking about at the end. I believe it is something within either the action script or the xml coding that allows the position of the image to be differently? please help here is what i am talking about[URL] Continued: Here is my coding in action script:

I have a typical Flex-based application that was written to use a Java/Hibernate/MySQL backend. The client changed the requirements - now they want to distribute it on a CD where the user can just run the app without any installation or a network connection.
To do this, I certainly need to eliminate the web server and the database server and adapt my application (with as few changes as possible, of course) to a stand-alone application that will fit on a CD/DVD. I've managed to export the data to XML and read it into Flex, but I'm wondering if there's a way to recreate the Hibernate data structures in Flex so I could change as little code as possible. Failing that, is there any way to keep the existing Java/Hibernate external to the Flex code but retrievable without installing Apache Tomcat or MySQL?
I have a Flex application which manage a database composed by 7 tables.I have created the insert form and all work great. Now I wanto to improve the Form performances; the idea is to replace the TextInput of the Form with ComboBoxes which are provided by the DataBase tables

View 4 RepliesI am a programmer with a relatively good background programming in ActionScript using Flash Builder. However, I have been handed a FLA file meant to be opened in Flash CS 4, and I have to add some code to it, but this is the first time I've ever used this software in my life.After I opened the file, I was greeted by a quite unhelpful interface (maybe it's friendly for artists?), and I immediately had questions such as:
-How can I edit the source code?
-How do I run the program?
-How is the source code organized?
-Where is the entry point of the program?
-How can I do source control of these files?
I've been looking at flash tutorials online, but every tutorial starts with drawing shapes, tweening, the timeline, etc. Honestly, I don't care about any of those things (they've already been done by people at the design team).I already know how to code in ActionScript, so what I need is a tutorial to give me a kickstart in coding -already designed- flash files using Flash (not Flash Builder).I have been fighting against flash cs4 all day and I am very very disappointed with it. I thought I was good with technology, but it has been a really long time since I last found a tool so difficult to use and understand.
I was wondering if there was a way to make the XML Flash Slideshow begin playing once it loads and to possibly have a pause feature. I saw this asked in another thread but there was no response to it.

View 1 Repliesi am pretty new to Flash, and I have started going through alot of this tutorials on this site, and it is really great btw. Anyhow, I was reading through the zoom in/out tutorial in the ActionScript > 3D in Flash tutorial, and I am having a little trouble figuring out where I should put the code, and actually see it work.
I did the following. I only made one figure so far, because I was just doing a test:
1) I draw a simple shape on the stage, converted it into a movie clip, and named it figureA
2) I then double clicked on it, and in the first frame, right clicked > Actions, and wrote the following code:

My question is what am I suppose to do next? Insert a keyframe and make a motion tween? I am kinda lost in the difference between actionscript motion or using motion tween.
i just followed the tut fmx2004 about the slideshow, it is very good! i just have one question : i would like the slideshow to be started by a click on a button (not run when loaded), and then run infinitly, how do I do that?
View 2 Repliesi am leaning Flash for about 3 weeks now, and i am quite good in that. I am AMAZED by all cool effects and trying to learn atleast 1 new every day. This tutorial, Coloring Book in Flash , is giving me headache for the last 2 hours. On the beggining of tut, it say to download and open souce FLA file- I saw that there is only drawing in start FLA file, so I make my own. Is that mistake, right at the beginning? If so, where I can find tut in the whole, so I can use my own images?

Just got through with the "Displaying XML in Flash" tutorial and it was very easy. I took the XML document on the tutorial and created more childNodes within the parent node. The problem is that I cannot get the actionscript to display text in the text window beyond the first child node.I noticed in the [URL] that it tells how to get other data from the first child node but not the second.
