I've just finished my work. When I publish or export the file to an swf, it doesn't 'render' the actionscript 3.0 code to an SWF file. So, I've hidden the movieclipes by using the dot syntax. movie-clip.visible = false;, for example. But everything is visible, because its not taking in consideration the actionscript code in frame 1.
View 3 RepliesIs there any way to write AS code that will render itself (.swf/.exe file) unreadable, say, after being being viewed x times or after certain date?
View 1 RepliesI have a huge code execution with many loops and pre-rendering processes and I was wondering if there is a way to tell the flash player to take a little pause on the code side and do a render.
Basically I have my execusion that takes a while, and on each step I make a call to a screen and then modify the scale of a loading bar. Now the problem is that the user only sees the progress at the end, I know this is due to the fact that flash does code execution and then render, i tried to make calls to stage.invalidate to force a render but it wouldnt work until the whole execusion if finished either. Is there a way to force flash to render between two lines of code?
I've looked at the following website for some information on writing AGAL to render Textures / Bitmaps to the Stage3D object: url...But it seems to cover more about how to create objects in 3D space. Maybe it can't be avoided?What would be the bare-bone necessary AGAL code & AS3 code to write to render multiple sprites to the Stage3D?No Filters, Effects or Shaders required - just position, scale and rotation transformations. Also, I'm not looking for existing 3rd party APIs that do this under the hood. I would like to experiment this low-level language myself.

View 3 RepliesI am having a problem with my build. When I add a valid statement to the code it will no longer complie and it fails with errors from an unrelated file.I experience these issues building with ant or building with mxmlc on the command line.Adding a valid statement to an myLittleBox.mxml will cause this error.All the errors are in ViewerMain.mxml.This file is not the main mxml file but it is referenced from the main mxml file.Before changing myLittleBox.mxml ViewerMain.mxml had no compile errors.There are no errors related to myLittleBox.mxml myLittleBox. mxml has no references to ViewerMain and only uses spark components ViewerMain.mxml has no direct references to myLittleBox.mxml. Its children's children's children would have a reference to myLittleBox.mxml.The valid statement added to myLittleBox.mxml could be many things (they all break it) including a comment.[code]
I noticed that the Model was using a constant in Viewer 1.This was causing all of Viewer 1 to be built when Viewer 2 is built.I moved the constant from Viewer 1 to the the Model (where it really should have been anyways) and my project built successfully since Viewer 1 and Viewer 2 were not being built at the same time.It makes sense that this would resolve the issue however this is just resolving a symptom of the issue.I am still very curious what was causing the the compiler to fail on ViewerMain.mxml when I add a comment to myLittleBox.mxml.I guess that it will remain a mystery for now.
I am using Flex Builder 3, working on a PC. Everything was working as expected throughout my first day of code updates, but on day 2 Flex started behaving badly.The problem started when I removed a component, and then got an error that it couldn't find the specified component in some accompanying AS3 code. No problem, I updated the reference so it wouldn't look for the old missing component (a form item). When I compiled the project in debugger to check my work, it failed when it got to that part, and gave an error that it couldn't find the component I'd removed. However, my code had fixed the problem, and the error was referencing a line of code that wasn't there any more. I proceeded to change the file around greatly, and even resorted to creating a new file, changing the name of it, and then recompiling it. I did a clean compile as well, rebooted my machine, restarted Flex, but every time it gives an error referencing the bit of code that isn't even there any more. It's as if it's loading a cached project each time (both in debugger and run mode).
For reference, here's the error I'm getting: ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property Winter Cost not found on views.PopupUsage and there is no default value.Well, the file "PopupUsage.mxml" doesn't even exist any more and is not referenced in my project at all, but it's still being referenced by Flex when I compile the files.What can I do to make Flex move on and look at my code?
I want to import a remote html page in flash. I do not want it for rendering text as html, just the sourcecode for a page. A sort of editor for html files. When I load it, some data is missing and other strange things happen probably due to '&' in the sourcecode. Example file to load: [URL]

Is there a way to make code on the timeline and code in a separate AS file communicate with each other?I have two buttons, a yes button and a no button.I have a confirm box which is a movie clip. In the movie clip I have the two buttons on it and code so that every time one of the buttons is clicked it runs a function.I have the rest of my code for the movie (so the code to make the confirm box appear) on a separate AS file.Is there a way I can define the functions on the movie clip and run the functions with the separate AS file?
View 7 RepliesThere is probably no way for this but does anyone know a method of excluding certain functions from a build by use of a meta tag and or compiler option?I want to expose some functions for testing but not have them bloat the application on production. I could create separate testing classes and test for a complier directive or option and only load them if necessary but I like the idea of having the test function on the actual object (in the class).
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to compile an SWC file from a list of given ActionScript classes. I'm using the compc compiler. The problem is that there are so many classes grouped into multiple namespaces that I am finding it very tedious to specify each individual class to be included in the SWC. Is there any easier way of doing this like just simply specifying a root directory of these classes? At the moment I have something like this:

I understand that in Flex builder we can right click on a CSS file and choose 'compile to swf' and our CSS SWFs will automatically be compiled along with the main app.Is possible to compile the CSS file only (not with the main app) from the command line?Give clients a Flex CSS file to hand edit.Allow them to upload the file via a CMS.Trigger a server process to run the compiler from the command line, outputting the compiled SWF to the appropriate server path.This would of course be a whole lot simpler if Flex properly supported text-based CSS files (without requiring manually applying styles using AS3).
View 1 RepliesI want to compile one class from MXML to as3 as a learning experience. The class had dependencies on other classes in my project but I don't think that should matter if I am just compiling it to as3 right? Currently I have Flash Builder 4 (in Eclipse) but I would be happy just to use a command line compiler if that exists.

Flash Builder has a nice feature that will allow you to have it move files such as images, fonts, xml files and so forth into the bin-debug directory an compile time. The reason for doing this would be to mock up some data or test pulling in assets dynamically but having them in source directory so you can version control the assets during development. Typically we don't add the bin directory to version control so being able to have the IDE move files over to bin for you is very helpful if you are on a large team.
Is there a feature within FDT5 that will do this like Flash Builder?
I have some question, Please check out this two site. [URL] My question is how this is done? Both in the front end and back end. How does the system recognize which music to play when the timeline hit in the front end. And how does the backend compile the DIY music file for the user to download. It just so dynamic.
View 3 RepliesI imported a image file to my library and exported it for Actionscript. Which it created a new class that extends the bitmapdata class. Do I create an instance of that data and pass it to a sprite and add the sprite to the stage so I can display the image when I compile the file into a swf? Ive tried that and get an error saying that I need two arguments. I guess im just not sure what to do with the bitmapdata class.

View 2 RepliesWe're trying to add a simple link to an existing Flash file. There looks to be at least 7 separate .as files and a separate swf that loads the main swf which all seems overly complex for what is essentially a page with six buttons on it.However, we need to add a URL to some of the text. So we converted the text to a button, added an instance name of <ssbpurchasetickets_btn> then added the following Actionscript into the actions layer on the frame the text/button appears:
ssbpurchasetickets_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ssbButtonPurchase);
function ssbButtonPurchase(event:MouseEvent):void
{[code]......
When we publish the file we get the following error which seems to cascade into a whole bunch more errors:Description: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MouseEvent.Source: function ssbButtonPurchase(event:MouseEvent):void
We added "ssb" onto the button and functions to ensure there were no conflicts but the same thing occurred. If we copy the button into a new file everything works so it must be conflicting with something in the main files.
