ActionScript 3.0 :: [CS3] AIR Messing Up Its Settings
Feb 25, 2009
I'm developing an AIR app using CS3. I had previously made one AIR app without much problems. So I start a new file and fill out the AIR settings (found under Commands). But the damn thing keeps screwing up settings. Some stay saved, some don't. It also keeps wanting to keep 2 files for inclusion that don't exist and are not even named correctly.
And now, after trying to fix some of the naming, it won't even create an AIR app anymore. It says there's a missing SWF file, but I published first, multiple times and yet, it doesn't see the swf.

This is where I should be able to open the settings window.Where does Flash store that info on my PC? How can I check it/change it without Settings manager?

I have a flash banner rotater and I have little squares at the bottom that are dynamically created which represent the slides in the banner, for example: if there are 4 slides in the banner there will be 4 little squares. Each little square is a button and if you click on a square it will take you to the slide that it represents. My problem is this: When I try to add numbers to each little square by dynamically creating a TextField then the text overlays the square so the button doesn't work.

hello everybody. I have a very weird problem. Recently my Flash IDE started to mess up dimensions. I mean when I create a new document or a rectangle for example, even if I set the height and width to the same value the height is always bigger than the width... I tried re-installing Flash CS4 again but that didn't solve the problem...

I am having trouble with unload an loading movies. Basically I am loading a movie into a container, which works a charm[code]...
Ideally I would like to add that second movie clip into a container so I can position it correctly, but when I try copying the code I use on the first it doesn't seem to work...is it to do with the "root" bit perhaps?

I've got a MovieClip with two frames for the UP and DOWN states with text on top of it. I've added MOUSE_DOWN and MOUSE_OUT event listeners, but the text gets in the way of the button reacting to the events.I tried fixing this by adding the text as a child of the button, but now the text and the button act like they're two separate buttons. Does anyone know of a clever way to make the text and the clip to act as one button?

So the MouseEvent.CLICK event works just fine when i don't have the setChildIndex, but when i do nothing happens anymore. Here is the code:
var kake:Kake = new Kake();
kake.x = 87.5;
kake.y = 358.5;
addChild(kake);
setChildIndex(kake,2);

I've got a line in my Actionscript like this:[code]If I click the auto format button with this line in there, it adds unnecessary semicolons through the rest of the code and the file stops working. Is there something wrong with the way I have this coded? It works just fine with the code in there before I hit the auto format button.

I dynamically set a color using this function in colortransform.
function setColor(o:DisplayObject,color:uint):void
{
var myColor:ColorTransform = o.transform.colorTransform;[code]...........
I then have a short timeline animation in Flash CS5 where the height grows just a little bit, and it does not grow.It grows in the preview, but not after compile.If i comment out this color transform function, the height animates correctly.

My air app is using the FlexChrome instead of the system chrome. The problem is I also have a .CSS for skinning that sets the skins for the Button class. This is also changing the 3 buttons (minimize, maximize, close) in the flex chrome which is undesired. Is there a way to make it not effect the Flex chrome buttons?Also the css file is in a central location and I use it for many apps so I would like not to have to change the css file but change something in my app only so I do not effect other projects.

I'm trying to replace some contents in a website by using the following code:[code]The problem is that I have some flash embedded on the DOM and whenever I try to do the replacement the browser crashes.Somebody should thing that a prepend or append in the right place should be a better method
to achieve this, but the elements I'm trying to locate and replace are html comments and the append prepend methods do not seem to work with this kind of nodes so they have to be treated as literal strings.

I'm working on a AS3 and Box2D game with moving platforms. The platforms are animated in Flash, and in actionscript I can read in their current position and adjust the physics bodies to match.However, there's always a delay, where the animation is one frame ahead of the physics. I wanted to fix this by reading in the clip's current position, storing it for later, and then putting the clip back to its position at the last frame.
But when I do this, it systematically refuses to budge. I coded up a simple test with a single moving box to test the idea, and I get the same problem ("movingBox" is a symbol that animates a single "box" symbol within it):
package
{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;[code].............

I'm using the .sortOn() function in AS3.0 to sort an array with multiple elements.First, I push the values to the array, like this:[code] The program has a number of "loops" it goes through. So, I push data to this array (which is global) a first time, sort it, and then later I clear the array with the .shift() function in conjunction with a for loop. I then push new data to the array with the same line of code mentioned above.But what's happening is this: on the first round, everything works great, and this is what my output looks like:[code]Before I cleared the array with for loop and .shift(), it would say "Northern Alberta & Prairies" in ALL array slots. Since I started using the .shift() function I managed to get BC to remain, but it's still clearing my southern alberta entry.

I'm having an issue with sound that I'm playing from the library. With longer sound files, whenever I specify an offset in the play() method that's greater than 1000 milliseconds, it ends up messing the sound files timing. Specifically, it cuts about 1 second from the end so the sound file ends abruptly. I was wondering if any one else was having a similar issue.

I have built this, drag the various dots.[URL]...%20parent.html I did not use the flash startDrag because it had all sorts of issues. I wanted the dots to be restricted to the stage when dragged. That is any dot CAN leave the stage when it is not the one being dragged. For example make the kite big and drag the red dot, the blue dots are free to leave the stage (marked by outline in the online example) The code I have uses mousemove, and some globalToLocal conversion to keep the dots from leaving the stage area All was well so far.
Now I find out the kite has to be able to rotate! when I simply rotate the kite all of my dragging rules break down. Click the big blue button, each click rotates the kite 5 degrees. Looks OK at first, rotate 30 or 40 degrees and everything breaks down. I know its the globalToLocal limiting, is there a better way? Seems people here have a lot of experience with dragging and rotating in flash. Does anyone see a way to fix what happens, or a whole new way to do the drag.

I found a bug with use of _X and _Y. even though vars are case sensitive in the case of _Y and _X Auto format will change them in to lower case _y and _x and still even then, the use of upper case will still apply what ever value of that var to the _y and _x of the _root.Now that I dont have the stage shifting any more I went back to look at my trace and to my surprise it's still the same.I assume that it's because of the array style scope. when in debug the the level0 and level0.stage is the same width and height.[code]

I need the enemies to move around the obstacles on screen. I have tried several methods but it seems to screw up other functions in my game... For example the depth sorting function starts messing up (sortchildren()). I think its because i'm such an amateur.

I'm making a flash game in AS2, and i am having troubles with my gun, i have fiddled with it for a while now and i have narrowed down the problem, but i can't fix it. My problem is that i want a gun to follow the player, but the coordinates are messing up and going to his feet.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_y += (_root.player._y-_y)/1; //This code makes it goto his feet, but the gun no longer follows player when he jumps.
_x += (_root.player._x-_x)/1;[code].............

I seem to be getting a funny problem whenever people click a bit too early on another link whilst a movieclip file is loadingthe prime example is here, you click to enter the site, then a .swf loads within a MC to give you the "homepage" content (in this case some rather pretty girls wearing some t-shirts) the problem comes when the user gets bored of waiting too long and decides to click else where, for example, the user clicks on events.This then begins loading the events.swf file into the loader_MC I have, and once loaded begins mass playing the file constantly ( warning, it does flash very quickly, so if that sort of thing set you off, dont click it =O!)This is what my preloader code looks like in the loading files (such as home.swf, events.swf, etc
ActionScript Code:
mycallback = setInterval(preloader, 10);
//function to be called to test for download

make an interactive flash simulation of a display that has several different settings. these need to work individually so that the user can set the different indicators to the number they want. the picture shows the two main functions; a number indicator and a status bar (kind of like the reception bar on a phone).i have tried to get .swf files to load on top of each other, but they keep erasing previous settings in other indicators. is there a way to get this to work? or maybe a completely different approach that would be smoother? or can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial or a template that has this function?

how can I change my rulers' zero points on the stage? In Photoshop I just drag new points from the top left corner, but that doesn't seem to work in Flash. This is very useful for me, e.g., setting "0" at the center of the stage, or quickly measuring some space.
P.S. Where's the email alert button on this Forum's posts?

Yes, I am currently running into an issue concerning publishing settings with Flash Professional CS4. I know how to make things animated in the publish setting, but things come out like the saturation is not all there in a project. I have no clue what to choose for the options to achieve the desired effect I want. It just looks drained of color. When I import items to the stage everything looks so clear and perfect, but when I go to publish it as a .gif animated it looks so bland. I'm sure Flash users are familiar to the settings provided for the .gif tab, if not I can give a list of everything thats there. I have included a screenshot of what my dialog box looks like as well.

I'm having a problem I haven't seen before with a Flash application I'm working on. I have attached two images of a part of the screen: one is taken with 16 bit color setting and the other with 32 bits. The texts are standard dynamic text fields.when i view the app at 32 bits all colors seem to be OK, but when I set it at 16 the textboxes seem to have a different background color, even though it's set to transparent!
