ActionScript 3.0 :: Detect End Of External Swf - Button Restrictions?
Jun 7, 2010
I'm newly transitioning from AS2 to AS3, and trying to figure out the proper way to detect the end of an external swf, or, essentially put "restrictions" on next buttons for a flash site.Basically, I have a training course where the user watches a little demo then clicks "next" to proceed to the next slide. This works wonderfully so far; however, I need to restrict the next button from being active until the demo has finished playing (so they can't skip ahead).The way this is structurally set up is I have a main container (mainContainer.swf) that loads in external content through an empty MC (contentMC) and cycles through an array (content1.swf, content2.swf, content3.swf) and so on...I have tried comparing the currentFrame to totalFrames of the external swf before activating the next button, but with no luck. Again, new to AS3 so probably have the syntax wrong...
if (contentMC.currentFrame == contentMC.totalFrames) {
trace("end of external swf");
//next button code here...continue cycling through array...
[code]....

We are loading external swf content into an adobe air application. Content is provided by an increasing number of third parties.Being third party content, it will be loaded in a separate security domain (trustContent=false) and a sibling app domain (loadForCompatibility=true). We are doing this using the Loader class.What are the features/options/approaches that would cause problems when using the swf as external content?
I am interested in any kind of issues, as we have already reproduced issues with content that occur regardless of the app domain / security domain where its loaded ( and occurs also in both Loader and SWFLoader).

I am trying to convert a .swf to .mov in Mac Leopard, and I have many rules to follow for this particular purpose.
.mov must be 640x480 or 720x480under 50 MB(my restriction) needs to look really good I have tried the following:
Export from Flash to .mov - I get 300 MB and it looks pretty badThis converter [URL] couldn't even take my .swf for some reasonThis converter [URL] works (37 MB) but the quality is pretty lowBring the .swf into Premiere and then export, which works great, but the file is 737 MB - even when I lower the quality all the way down to 1

I have a swf movie player located in [URL]. Normally this a.swf is used by a html page, the swf file is embedded in a [URL]. The website is not built by me but I know there is a restriction that only the html in [URL] can play the video . Now what I want to do is embed the a.swf into a c# project using swfloader, I will set the source property of swfloader to [URL]. My question is will the c# project be able to play to video file the same as in the html page?

A client wants to show complete html-pages inside a Flash movie. I've seen somewhere that this is possible through an IFrame, but then you can just rightclick the frame to view the source, and that's not what the client's looking for. I know it's possible to parse simple html tags in Flash in a TextField, such as <b></b> <a href=""></a> etc etc, but what are the restrictions? For example, all css should work, even flash movies inside the html page should work. I think they're asking too much, so what exactly is possible and what's not?

I want the press button to detect the last button pressed and if the shapes match, make them do something...obviously. I think I'm going at it the wrong way. I need to stick a "triange" id into the button/mc then if compares that and then if there is a match works then... right?

I have this box which is a MC and it is called "orangebox". Now I want this box to follow my mouse, but only over a certain region. I put a rectanlge MC over the area I want the box to follow. On that rectange I put this code...
PHP Code:
on (rollOver) {
startDrag("_root.orangebox", true, 60, 362, 742, 362);
}
That works fine and dandy, but I want it to ease when it follows, not stay on the mouse. I think it will give it a cooler look. The code Kirupa has for ease is...

I'm dynamically loading a CSS file and text file to populate a TextField. As far as the default styles are concerned, no problem!But as soon as I try stuff like p.title, the style is not applied. Is this a restriction of the CSS support that Flash/Flex offers? Do I have to resort to the "simpel-style-selectors" like ".title" or "p" in my CSS?
Works:
Code:
.title { color:#FF0000; }
Doesn't work:
Code:
p.title { color:#FF0000; }
ps: I know that Flash doesn't support everything that CSS has to offer, but I'm looking for confirmation of someone who can tell me for a fact that the above p.class-selector is not supported.

I'm studying John Lindquist's example from here: [URL] I'm trying to figure out how to add restrict his matrix3d method, so the sphere has limited movement.
Code:
Select all override protected function onRenderTick(event:Event=null):void {
var currentMousePoint:Point = new Point(viewport.containerSprite.mouseX, viewport.containerSprite.mouseY);
if(isMouseDown) {
var difference:Point = currentMousePoint.subtract(previousMousePoint);

I'm using actionscript as a preloader to load an external swf from a url, and I've noticed that the traces in the external swf are passed onto the loader's output. Is there any way to detect if a function has been activated inside the external swf, and use it to call to another function inside the loader?

I can't get my head around this. I know there's a clever way to do this but none of my ideas seem to be the solution. I'd like to dispatch an event when there are no more items to be loaded. I'm working with Drupal and AMFPHP and loading some nodes. The number of nodes may vary from day to day so I need a way to know when the last one has loaded.
In the code below, I am building an array to use elsewhere in the application. Once all nodes have finished loading I'd like to know what the final length of portfolioItems is.

I have a main swf that will load external swfs into a container. I need to detect the end of the loaded external swf in order to start to load and play a new one into the same container. The problem is that i do not know what the length of the external swfs will be, and will have no control over the development of them, so i cannot place a variable at the end of their animation which would allow me to detect from the main movie its end. I also cannot rely on the _totalFrames property because the loaded swf might not have all the animation inside its main timeline.

I have 5 loaded swf files, I can play them one by one using "next" button. But now I need a "autoplay " button. My thinking is to dectect one swf finished, then call the "next" function, so it can be played automaticly. The thing is I don't know how to dectect one swf is finished playing.

we all know its possible to make a share button for face book which allows users to share whatever item. but when we are directed to that page the user has two options. press the "cancel" button which of course closes the window, or to press the "share" button which then adds the item to the persons wall.
what i'm trying to do is determine if that share button has been pressed. see because when they press it i want my swf to trace out a message saying "thanks for sharing my item"and while i can redirect them to the page i have no way of knowing if they shared it or not. my idea was to use an enter_frame event and try and see if any data was being sent via php. because thats what the button would be doing when pressed. but i haven't had any luck making that work.here is the code so far. its a tutorial as the focus is at my problem:

import flash.net.navigateToURL;
import flash.net.URLVariables;
