ActionScript 3.0 :: Text Bigger Than Maximum Flash Dimension 72pt
Jul 18, 2010
I've made this code:
Code:
var txt:TextField = new TextField();
var frmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
txt.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
frmt.font = "Arial";
frmt.size = 800;
frmt.color = 0xFF00FF;
txt.defaultTextFormat = frmt;
txt.text = "TRY WITH THIS";
I've seen around the web flash websites with text bigger than the max flash dimension of 72 pt. How can I make that? I've tried with the code above but it seems that flash set the text size to 72.

I am trying to create an HTML page that is showing a video (SWF file calling an SFV file). The video is the exact size of the SWF file. When I embed the SWF in the HTML page, I have set up width at 100% and height at 100% Though the result is not the one I want, as I would like the movie to match the biggest window dimension, not the smallest. A good example can be found here : [URL]

The issue I'm having is that I have a main "wrapper" 100x100 (but it could be any size) - it's just there to hold and display whatever content, swf, gif, etc we may want to throw into it. As long as the loaded content doesn't have 3D animation like rotationY going on, it displays fine. But when it does, the 3D "anchor" properties (like projectionCenter) of the loaded swf inherit those of the main timeline (i.e. 100x100 (main) vs 728x90 (loaded)). If I change the dimension of the main "wrapper" in Flash IDE to match what's coming in - the 3D behaves fine, but I won't know what the dimensions of the content will be until it comes, so I need a way (if there is one) to dynamically alter the main "wrapper" or root display object through AS. Stuff like "this.width = loader.width" or "stage.width = loader.width" or "root.width = loader.width" etc doesn't work. Flex has the hBox and vBox

Is there a maximum of text to put in a child of the XML. When i try to put a big quantity of text (big i mean a lot of text), when i load with as3 the text loads only pieces of it. It seems like a memory problem or bug.

i'll be straight to point,well i'm now working on a project using action script 3 now what i'm trying to make is a Main SWF that load whatever other swf into it the tricky thing is that i used 1 xml document read the external swf source nad it's setting(such as it's x,y position and it's width and height) and i'm having problem setting it's width and height (i mean the loaded swf width and height)
Code:
//variable list
var swfList:XMLList; //hold all the zone list from the xml
var totalZone:uint; //total of zone there is in the xml
var myURLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

I have a class (ImageLoader) that extends Sprite container and loads an external image to its instance. When i instantiate an object of this class from another (Main) class i want to have the dimensions (width, height) of the loaded image being known to this (Main) class. It seems that is difficult for me as the dimensions are known after the image compete loaded. But i don't know how to pass this information from completeHandler event handler to the Main class.
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;

I made a touch screen application and I used a UIScrollBar for one of my TextField in there and I want to make it's buttons wider/bigger. The .width and .scaleX and also .setSize() properties are not working. I change size of all components inside the UIScrollBar (make wider), but it keeps its original width size with no changes.

[URL].. To enable the SWF file to use hardware acceleration, select one of the following options from the Hardware Acceleration menu: Level 1 - Direct Direct mode improves playback performance by allowing Flash Player to draw directly on the screen instead of letting the browser do the drawing. Level 2 - GPU In GPU mode, Flash Player utilizes the available computing power of the graphics card to perform video playback and compositing of layered graphics. This provides another level of performance benefit depending on the user's graphics hardware. Use this option when you expect that your audience will have high-end graphics cards. If the playback system does not have sufficient hardware to enable acceleration, Flash Player reverts to normal drawing mode automatically. For best performance on web pages containing multiple SWF files, enable hardware acceleration for only one of the SWF files. Hardware acceleration is not used in Test Movie mode. When you publish your SWF file, the HTML file that embeds it contains a wmode HTML parameter. Choosing Level 1 or Level 2 hardware acceleration sets the wmode HTML parameter to "direct" or "gpu" respectively. Turning on hardware acceleration overrides the Window Mode setting you may have chosen in the HTML tab of the Publish Settings dialog box, because it is also stored in the wmode parameter in the HTML file.
Does this mean that the newest version of Flash will support Hardware acceleration? The kind of hardware support that will produce less laggy animations and games? I've been waiting for flash to do this. I have a couple game ideas, but they're too big for flash, and well, I wasn't very inspired to learn other languages.

I'm working on a full browser flash site and it works great, its got a 1000x650 movie in the middle centred in the html and the background colour of the movie fills the rest of the stage, no margins, no mess!
Thing is, I need a black overlay to fade in (to put other content over the top) Thing is, the black box only resizes to the size of the stage not the full browser window! Heres the code at the moment:
// Stops the stage from scaling with the browser window.

I 'm using the kirupa gallery to display my images. Works sweet, centering the images, next and prev button, nice transition. No thumbnails or stuff. Pretty simple and basic.

I've been doing some rapid prototyping for a game I'm thinking of building. one of the main things i want to do is map generation for a tile type map. While generating the map i end up using large amounts of ram. I'm building the map as an array of random integers for my test. When i try to generate maps of a large scale flash gives me the out of memory error:
Error: Error #1000: The system is out of memory.
I've already figured i could write to a file instead, to solve that problem. but does anybody know the actual maximum size? I've tried searching around to no avail.Activity monitor reports that ADL is using around 500MB "real memory" and around 700MB "virtual memory". The System.privateMemory property seems to match the "real memory" value.as a side note i'm developing in OSX Snow Leopard (64) with 8gb ram
EDIT:
Here the example test i am running
var ba:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
for(var i:uint = 0; i<100000000; i++)
{
ba.writeInt(int(Math.random()*100));
[code]....
When i run this script from a browser, stand-alone debugger or AIR i get roughly the same memory usage readouts (which i know vary anyway). What is constant however is the final length of the byte array:
Browser (Firefox): TM: 540413952 FM: 19116032 PM: 562573312 BALENGTH: 13421778
Stand-alone: TM: 540577792 FM: 1810432 PM: 545361920 BALENGTH: 134217728
AIR (2.6): TM: 5410816 FM: 1159168 PM: 551464960 BALENGTH: 134217728
My testing methods might not be perfect, though i dont know how to do deeper profiling.

Currently my flash file will insert an object onto the stage when the user clicks onto the stage. each object will play and loop a sound (the user can select sounds and time before the sound loops for each object) but when I have many sounds playing at once, the sounds will suddenly stop and briefly come back before stopping again. Now I'm guessing there must be a maximum number for sounds simultaneously playing for a flash movie? If so, I'd like to know if there are any workarounds?At present, a sound playing about 2 times a second will be able to repeat roughly 30 times before it sound cuts out.
I added in functionality to stop a sound if it is attempting to trigger again in my play function to which I had a "cannot access a property or method of null object reference" output on the function and the sounds all started doing the same thing again. This happens the same as above, after 30 times playing 2 a second.Unless I've assessed the cause incorrectly, the only workarounds I can think of are to restrict the sound length and restrict the time before a sound loops - but this would ruin some of the aspects of what I wanted to create

I'm making an action game and I'd like to know what should be the maximum size of the stage (mine is 660 x 500).Also I'd like to know how big a game-sprite should be. Currently my biggest sprites have a size of 128 x 128 and I read somewhere on the internet that you should not make it bigger because of performance issues. If you want to make e.g. big explosions with shockwaves even 128 x 128 does not look very big. What's the maximum size I can definitely use for sprites?
