I've managed to get the flex WebService class working with my Flash CS4 project.The problem I'm having is that If I do two calls in rapid succession to different methods of the same WebService,then I can't distinguish the results when they come back.In my project,my function onWebServiceData would trigger twice,but I couldn't tell which time was in response to Method1 and which was in response to
Method2.
I've managed to follow some drawing tutorias which work fine (mouse down draws a line everywhere you move mouse like MS paint).I would like to adapt this now if I can so that when a user clicks down, a straight line will follow their mouse until they click again and this releases the straight line. This should leave one line on the screen, then they are free to move their mouse and repeat the action again.
View 6 RepliesI have a Flex client making RESTful calls to a webservice using HTTPService. The server is returning JSON responses, which we would like to compress. Can Flex using HTTPService handle gzip-encoded responses? If so, what steps are required to make it work (e.g., which headers to set, how to decompress, etc.)? If not, can you suggest a simple alternative?

View 12 RepliesI know you can restrain an mc in a rectangle when using startDrag, but is there a way to have the mc only go horizontal or vertical without going off diagonally? Sort of like a slider that can only move in a straight line in four directions (like a cross).

View 2 RepliesI have this code inside an ENTER_FRAME event. I'm trying to move the "ball" from its x- and y-position to a tartget x- and y- position:
Code:
if (processClick)
{
if (ball.x < targetX) ball.x += 8;
if (ball.x > targetX) ball.x -= 8;
[Code]....
But the "ball" doesn't move in a straight line, I think it is because the x- and y-movements are processed independently?
Is there a way thay I can make the "ball" move in a straight line from the starting point to the target point?
Also, is there maybe a way to manually create a tween between the starting point and the target point using actionscript? If I export the "ball" movieclip for actionscript?
I am trying to create a flash movie (AS3) that would allow the user to draw using his mouse but straight lines only. The user would click to set the start point of the line then as he moves the mouse around the line would move with the mouse until the user clicks again to set the end point. When the user clicks again a new line is created without deleting the previous one.

I'm looking into uploading an XML file and then storing it's contents in database. It looks like upload method of flash.net.FileReference would do the job however it just gives you an option to upload it to server.
I could upload it to server, read it from that server and then delete that file but I would like to avoid extra work.
Is there a way to just load a file into memory without saving it on some remote location?

This is the code that I have found from various web and paste it into one. I want to draw straight line & snap to that point at the same time. My problem is when I click at 2nd point, there is a 'extra' line at (0,0) joining towards my 2nd corrdinate point. I want to get rid of that 'extra' line.

View 5 RepliesI am trying to move a playing card across the screen from the deck to the players hand. The deck is in a stationary position and each player has 2 card places in front of them which are also stationary. The deck is a movie clip called "deck" and the player cards are named "p1c1" and "p1c2"....(player # card #). The animation I am trying to accomplish is to duplicate the "deck" movie clip and move it to the players card. Once it reaches the players card, the stationary card will load the card image and the duplicated movie clip will be removed to make it appear as a smooth transition.

View 2 RepliesI've had a look at the Graphics class in AS3 and come up with a dynamic mouse trail. It works, but it's pretty rough and ready. I wonder if anyone could give it a once-over and see if there is a more elegant and efficient way to accomplish this?[code]is it possible to draw the trail with curves rather than straight lines, so that the curves mimic the path the trail would take to smooth out the jagged lines drawn when the cursor is moving quickly?
View 2 RepliesFlash AS2, AS3, and so on have many limitations. For example it is almost impossible to do transitions from a straight path to a curved one and vice versa for example as required in a in a car race game. You may have go for a frame by frame animation which is very cumbersome.
View 1 RepliesI am new to Flash. I bought a template online a couple weeks ago, and for the most part have made all the changes to personalize the page. The page is for wedding videography, and came with a Videos section. However, I do not like the template video player, and would like to have the Videos link on the menu bar go straight to my youtube channel rather than to the flash player. Primarily all changes to the template have been made in a text.txt file, rather than the flash file itself. My question is, how could I change the link on the main page to route to my youtube channel? Here's what it looks like in the text file:
