ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic ColumnSet Rendering As 'overlaid' Instead Of 'stacked'?
Apr 19, 2011
I am using the charting components of Flex to build dynamic charts in Action Script. I'm struggling to get a stacked column set working within a cartesian chart. The chart object and horizontal axis are defined statically within mxml code, and the column set, column series, vertical axis, and other vertical axes, axis renderers, and line/plot series components are all defined dynamically in actionscript.
When I specify my ColumnSet object's type attribute to 'stacked' it renders all the column series data as overlaid instead of stacked. I can specify 'clusterd' dynamically (leaving everything else the same) and it will re-render correctly as clustered, but I've tried several different 'workarounds' to try and force stacked to occur without any luck. The same structure works fine to stack if everything is defined statically in mxml instead of being built dynamically.
Here's a snippet of the MXML definitions:
<mx:CartesianChart id="myColumnChart"
doubleClickEnabled="true"
width="100%"
[code]....
why dynamic construction would act differently than statically defining the chart's series elements, and only when 'stacked' is the column set's type? Is there some magic function call I need to make to get them to stack?

I have a neat chart that is rendering overlaid columns with values in excess of 6000 but my vertical axis stays at 0-100, as if my dataProvider was being ignored.
The problem here is with "msAxis" autoAdjust didn't change anything. Do I need to force its values manually?
<mx:ColumnChart xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

I have a flash file that loads dynamic text from a text file. When you press the space bar, it animates the text upward like movie credits. It works fine until I add more than 50 lines or so, at which point it delays showing the text until it's well into its scrolling.the kink here is that it only displays this error when it plays in fullscreen mode (which it is set to do by default, and what I need). if I escape out to window mode, it plays the text animation just fine.

I have a datagrid which displays details for a product. For a particular product i need to display its Id current status(Available/ Not) and which category it belongs to. The category part is a bit different from what it seems to be like. Product A can belong to Category A, B and C while product B belongs A ,c and D and so on. Structure of this table would be something like The category columns are retrieved from database and passed as parameter to construct the columns dynamically in Datagrid. I have defined the following Datastructure on UI to handle this.
Product{
var productId:String;
var productName:String;
var status:String;
var categoryList:ArrayCollection;
}
I am not sure if this will be able to solve my problem. I think I will need to have a Map containing category Names and if it is applicable for that product.

I cannot seem to get a horizontal rule to appear in either html or css.Here is my as3 code. I am briniging in a RSS feed and displaying nodes in a Dynamic Text field. It is working very well but I cannot get the Horizontal Rule to work...
ActionScript Code:
var myText:String = "<p>"+firstheadtext+"</p>"
+"<span class='myTextStyle1'>"+firstbodytext+"</span><br/>"
[code]....
This is not the whole code. I have omitted the RSS loader and the CSS loader and the Text field.

Anyone ever notice that Flash renders the same font totally differently depending on whether its a static or a dynamic textfield? It's really frustrating when you're trying to make everything look consistent, and it looks like you are using two different weights of the same font.

Here's my latest attempt at rendering a dynamic rectange (w/ width, height, border_width, border_color & background_color) I'm trying to render a dashed border, and can't seem to get the code right...
I've reworked my logic about five times, and can get the dashes to render right (almost) but the fill color disappears. It's rendered using actionscript. You can see the issues if you change the border width... Anyone mind taking a look to see what I'm doing wrong? It seems like the moveTo function isn't behaving right when I get to the end of each line.

It's been a about seven years since I have done any work with Flash but now my employer is asking me to create a custom online magazine tool (we're publishers). I've been immersed in PHP and AJAX and building Mac apps with XCode so I've got a bit of a relearning curve to go through.
Anyway, I'm pulling in some XML into a Flash file and want to display some of the various node values in a dynamic text box. That was easy enough, AS3 makes it a charm compared to the dark old days. The problem I am running into is displaying the values - its kind of a runsheet for a magazine - num of pages, ads, features, etc. etc. and I want to display that in one text box in a list type format. So I have something like this:

The tutorials on the site are fantastic kudos to the developers of the site and the tutorials. On Creating 3D Carousels would anyone know a way to stack the rings? Also additional images to be called in each new ring via the XML file.

I have a button over the top of an image that performs an action upon rollover. I placed an arrow button over the top of this button to allow the user to scroll through the images, but when I rollover the arrow button it cancels out the rollover underneath it. What I need is for the first rollover action to remain while the user hovers over the arrow. I am using Flash 8, ActionScript 2.

I have a four groups of images which are stacked one above the other. the images which are under the top image won't be seen.I need to drag an image which is on top and drop it on target movieclips(10)I need to validate each target movielcips will contain max 3 images which should be from different groups. No two same groups's images should bedropped on any target, doing so it will go to it's original position.I am facing a problem handling depths of the images/movieclips. Whenever I try to drag an image(placed at the top) the bottom-most image gets dragged. I don't know why is it happening

i'm trying to develop a simple isometric flash game using AS3, but i have run into a small problem.
let's say i create a new movieclip (let's call it "ground") for the terrain base hexes (the ones that the character stands on) and populate that with more movieclip objects that represent each of the squares.since i want the game to be mouse-based, i want these hexes/movieclips to be clickable.
now, i will create a new movieclip (let's call it "objects") on top of the previous one that holds all the objects in a given map + your character and all the monsters. i want to do this, because then i can arrange the order (the z-depth) of the sprites according to their position on the map using swapChildren, etc (so that if your character is in a row in front of a tree, he is displayed on top, but if in a row behind the tree, he is displayed behind)
since the trees (or whatever other objects) can have clickable hexes behind them, i don't want them to get in the way of the mouse being able to detect the hexes themselves. the easiest way would be to make them mouseEnabled = false. but that would mean that i also have to make the whole "objects" clip mouseEnabled = false. at the same time if there are monsters inside the same "objects" movieclip i would want them to be clickable (for example to attack them), which means i cannot make "objects" mousEnabled = false.
hence my question. you can only change the depths of movieclips using swapChildren if they are in the same parent container, but you cannot make only part of that container's child movieclips invisible to the mouse. am i understanding something wrong and there is a different way to do this, or is this an actual and un-overcomeable limitation of AS3?

I have some movie clips turned buttons (by way of mc.buttonMode = true and friends) that scroll by an invisible button area, and when they are 'under' that area, none of their mouse events work. How can I still catch their mouse events in addition to the MOUSE_OVER of the invisible button on top?

I want to load multiple images from an xml document into rows, one on top the other on a y axis?
here is my xml:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<cardRewards>
<rewardImage path="images/redStar1.jpg" />
[Code].....
right now i'm just trying to trace each image name and it's height through the for loop, but what i would like to do is stack each image, 1 following the other.
when i run the trace, the output repeats just the last images name and image height. There is something wrong in my loop, right? Also i should mention that each image has a different height dimension.

I have noticed that using the "addEventListener" and coming back into a frame, I get multiple events tied to the same component.The design I am using jumps to an "I" frame (intermediate) and then back to the "M" frame (main) when the user performs an action.I add event listeners to several components when I enter that M frame. What I notice is that the events seem to stack up for a particular component.
For instance, if I enter M frame, N number of times and addEventListener("click", handleEvent) to a radio button, I get N calls to handleEvent when the user clicks on the radio button. I guess this kinda makes sense but is not what I want. I just want one event of a particular type (in this case "click") to be associated with the a particular component. I get around this issue by removing the event(s) in the I frame. Then they get reinstalled in the M frame. Only one at a time.
So, just wondering about this behaviour. Is there a way to check for the number of events that are currently active on a particular component? Better way to handle adding events?

I have to animate a bunch of text flags on a timeline, which my artist layed out in Illustrator. I import them from AI and if I am zoomed in they look fine, the verticals of the text are straight up and down. But if I zoom out, the verticals rotate to the slant.
Same goes for when I publish the swf. I have the flags all scaled small on the screen, and the text is all messed up. Then I scale up each flag to focus on it, and somewhere in the scale Flash decides my text is now big enough to look the way I want it. It is erksome. Is there a way I can force it to render straight up and down, without having to break everything and un-editablize my text?

I scripted a DropShadowFilter to render on my Movie Clip. The MC just consists of static text and its using the Tween class to move on the screen. Can't figure out why its not showing up. I'm using the same method on another movie clip that is just images, and works fine. Not generating any errors either.
Code:
import flash.filters.*;
var tds:DropShadowFilter = new DropShadowFilter(3,90,0x000000,40,3,3,1,3,false,false,false);

I used FalshDevelop to compile PanoSalado opensource ".as" files to produce corresponding ".swf" files.it works great and my movie shows.However, when I run it via a webapp under Tomcat, it just sits there. The url is:Note that I'm running the same file (.swf) from the same place in the filesystem.And I even tried to embed the swf in an html page (actually a jsp page) to see if it would work.. but no dice... same issue.FWIW the html that is used to invoke the swf is :
<div id="flashbanner">this will be replaced by the SWF.</div>
<script type="text/javascript"> alert('0'); var so = new SWFObject('maps/ModuleLoader.swf','mpl','555','416','9', '#336699'); alert('1');

I'm trying to create a video background for a game using the FLVPlayback component. I need to smoothly trasisition between multiple videos so I make a FLVPlayer for each one so that I can just tween the alpha when I need to show it. When I start the game I load everything and store the Playback components in a Vector, I think add them to the stage like this
for(var i:int = m_Videos.length-1; i > 0; --i)
{
addChildAt(m_Videos[i], 0);
}
Once the game is loaded though the first video dosnt render at all, so I have a see thoough background. But once I transition to a video that is on top of it, the top video renders.

I am trying to find a way to render a Flash object, more specifically a Open Flash Chart, in the server, and save a screenshot of it to a temp file to embed it in on a PDF report.
I've found some solutions that use Javascript to generate a temp file in the browser, and then send it to the server (like here). However I need to generate reports automatically and send them as e-mail attachments, so I cannot render it using a browser.

The idea is to increment the height of the TextField (with font embedded) and see the difference when it becomes too big. When container.height is over 279 you can notice two things:
1. container starts to increase its width property.
2. The "pixelated" glitch is gone now. (the original ugly pixelation comes from rendering multiple TextFields on top of each other - you can check the for loop). It looks like the issue of one font covering the other is solved differently now.
My question is: what changes when the font becomes too big? is there any property of the TextField (besides the size of course) that I can check to catch the moment? (gridFitType, antiAliasType, thickness, sharpness do not change)[code]...

I'm working on better performance on mobile device with gpu rendering set to on. I use only bitmaps for animations, but I have some doubts:
1. If my content is poor bitmap (jpg or png file) should I cache its container as bitmap?
2. Shoud I use cacheAsBitmapMatrix for my bitmaps to have smoother animations or poor bitmaps are already optimized?

rendering performance when scrolling some content. I have a large sprite with a lot of content that I need to scroll and the problem that I am encountering is that when scrolling this big sprite, the rendering of the Flash Player seems to slow down and the movement is choppy. I wrote a custom scrollbar class that simply updates the target sprite y or x properties on an enter frame event. The large sprite that I am scrolling mainly contains other sprites that have drawn shapes, loaded bitmaps and text fields.
Considering that I am simply moving the sprite, there are no other animations happening, nor other intensive processes at the same time, I do not think that it should be that resource intensive as to slow down the Flash Player that much. What can I do to improve the performance when scrolling the sprite? (Just to give a rough approximation, the sprite that I am scrolling contains around 20-30 sprites with drawn shapes, 2-5 loaded bitmaps, 5-10 text fields.)
