View 6 RepliesI'm doing a flashlight in pixel bender and works great. I pass, as parameters, the center of the flashlight.Now, I want to have more than one flashlights (n value).I don't think so I can use Arrays in Pixel Bender, so I thought about ByteArrays but I don't know how to use it in Pixel Bender.
View 2 RepliesI have a web application developed in Adobe Flex 3 and Python 2.5 (deployed on Google App Engine). A RESTful web service has been created in Python and its results are currently in an XML format which is being read by Flex using the HttpService object.Now the main objective is to compress the XML so that there is as less a time between the HttpService send() method and result events. I looked up Python docs and managed to use zlib.compress() to compress the XML result.Then I set the HttpService result type from "xml" to "text" and tried using ByteArrays to uncompress the string back to XML. Here's where I failed. I am doing something like this:[code]Its throwing an exception at byteArray.uncompress() and says unable to uncompress the byteArray. Also when I trace the length of the byteArray it gets 0.[code]
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to combine two ByteArrays to send it out as post data using URLRequest.. Whenever I try to simply add them up, the request becomes get instead of POST and the data for some reason doesn't get included.
View 2 RepliesI have an Air application with remote service in codeigniter. I'm trying to save a bytearray that I received from the Air app but when I save the data I get empty files with the correct filename.So there must be something wrong with my bytearray or the way I save the data. Does anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong? I've debugged the Arraycollection I sent and the bytearray is definitely in there.This is where I make my arraycollection to send to my codeigniter amf

I would like to be able to move images into and out of Flex by converting back and forth between ByteArrays. I've been having some trouble with this, so I designed a simple test program, and even that I can't get to work. Here's the code I'm trying right now:
[Code]...
So far the process follows top to bottom: Click button 3, image displays, everything is going well. Click button 4, and I get "Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2124: Loaded file is an unknown type." after the line "loader.loadBytes(myByeArray);" in the function button4_clickHandler. As far as I can tell I'm using everything as intended.
does anyone know if there is any possibility to do simple elementwise math on bytearrays without having to program it explicitely, e.g. a built-in function for multiplying all elements of a bytearray (of type float) by a constant or adding the elements of two bytearrays (with specified datatype)?
View 1 RepliesI used one of the template's for a pre-loader which pre-loads 3 SWF's but opens the last one.The last one plays an animation sequence.. now..After the Animation (to stop if from repeating) I place a second KeyFrame stop() but after that I want it to show the 2nd swf pre-loaded.

i have a menu and links to internal pages like "index.html", "contacts.html" and so on.Before load those pages i need to end animation with objects desappearing.I found this code tell me if it's right because it doesn't work. i get this error message.
"ReferenceError: Error #1065: Undefined Url Variable" or something like that (i'm translating it from italian)
i have 6 links i applied code to one link only but i should apply it to all of them.
On parent timeline i have an animation and at the end of it i put this code:
Actionscript Code:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(url), "_self");stop();
I need to load this animation before my links could connect to html pages.
Are preloaders still utilized to load content or the animation, or is this a thing of the past?

View 1 RepliesI am just starting to use CS3 and ActionScript 3.0 and running into a few minor problems. I have my "home" button in my main menu. When I click that button, I want my opening animation which is my index.swf file to load on the stage. I used to be able to do this with a simple LoadMovie ("index.swf", 0). How would I go about doing that?
View 2 RepliesI'm new and am having a bit of trouble loading one swf into another for a preloader and main program. If u open up flashSite.fla or the swf, everything works, but when I load it into a mc container of preloaderMomSite, the animated buttons no longer work. If someone could take a look, I would love to find out what I'm doing wrong. All files are located on in the same directory.

I'm sure you've guys heard of this before, but I have a question about loading movies into movie clips with a playout animation sequence so the transition is better.What I mean is this:I load movie clip 1 into instance Container and I click on another button to load another movie into that instance. How do you play an out animation on the previous movie that's already loaded before the new one loads in? Without the out animation, it just replaces the currently loaded movie instantly without a natural transition

View 5 Repliesmaking a simple animation with about 10 "coins" on screen. I have a movie clip that animates another movie clip flipping over. I want to pull a random movie clip from the library into the nested clip so that on each "flip" a random coin face comes up.I've put all the clip names into an array (coin1,coin2,coin3,etc.)I think it would be described as _root.coin_container.coin_animation.random_coin_hereThere will be 10 coin_container's on the main stage, with coin_animation nested inside. At the beginning of the animation a random movie clip from the array should be called into coin_animation, then coin_animation will run through a few frames, repeat, call another random movie clip and repeat.
View 2 RepliesI am following this page to create a custom preloader extending Sprite to load an animation SWF, but it is not working (the animation SWF is not displaying): [URL]. I know the Animation.swf file is okay, because if I load it into the main app it displays and runs. The preloader works if an image is loaded by the preloader instead of the animation SWF.
test.mxml (main app)
BTW, I typically have many more lines of ComboBox in the app to force the preloader to display, but limiting number of lines here.

View 2 RepliesThis one is tough to diagnose. I built an animated jigsaw app that pulls in a dynamic .swf that can be viewed here: [URL] It works perfect in Chrome. Works in FF 3.5.5 until I start reloading. Doesn't even work in IE7. Could be a embed problem in the HTML. Could be something I did in flash. [I can get more into the methods I used] [for those that only see it working or don't see it working] There should be an orange animation of a morphing shape cutout into jigsaw shaped pieces and a start button. When it doesn't load, the animation, nor start button display. And the menu is slightly messed up.

AND
onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.myurl.com");

ok lets say you create a button that when held down play an animation of 20 frames if realsed it goes to frame one and stops if held down it plays out this animation. for the topic lets say you have a fire animation and you want the fire to apear and if the user hold its down the animation reaches the end of the time line and loops back and plays the last 5 frames of the animation and as soon as it is let go it goes to and stops at frame one. Well i know how to make a button that when held down plays out an animation. And i know how to say when released goes to and stops at frame one. What i dont know how to do is to loop the fire at the last 5 or 6 frames so the user can hold it down all day long and play out that animation.
View 1 RepliesOk when you press link one it olads great! when i press link 2, it plays the closing animation, but not the entire animation, thats the problem.My closing animation is a red square going from one end to another ( for the hell of it).But you see content number two will load b4 the red square gets all the way across!!

View 1 Repliesso I have a looping animation that is several frames long. Inside the animation is a button, when pressed I want to go to another part of the timeline, where another animation is waiting. Simple, I got that working no problem. But... I need the first animation to go to the last frame in the loop before starting the next animation. The way I have it now makes an ugly cut, and the transition between animations isn't seamless.
