View 1 RepliesI am developing an educational game for our thesis and It's quite bugging me to see the interface look jagged when I lower my screen resolution.instead of using "System Capabilities"I want to know how I can use _quality to enhance the quality of a dynamically loaded image inside a <b>scaled movie clip</b>.i tried to use mc._quality="BEST";ut it doesn't seem to work.If I use "System Capabilities", I will end up creating different images of different sizes. I created a sample file.lease take a look at it
View 4 Repliesi am currently developing a standalone video application that will interact with our backend database and display the proper video, video title, video description and color scheme that you choose.Everything's working hunky dory, until I asked some of cohorts to see if they could break it before I show it off to the world. On the very first try, when my colleague went to full screen, the video was distorted, cut off by the bounds of the monitor, and not perfectly centered as it has been performing on my monitor.
And then it hit me... He was opening the browser in one of his computer's monitors, bringing the browser to the other monitor (we all have a dual monitor thing going on here), and THEN clicking the full screen button.I noticed that when you refresh the page, the variables I get to determine the fullscreen dimensions are being set, but NOT on EnterFrame.
After quickly changing this little glitch, I saw that the variables are still not being changed when you drag your browser window from one monitor to the other (hopefully they are set at two different resolutions, otherwise it defeats the purpose of even checking for this)how I can get my Flash application to recognize when it has entered into a new resolution.
When I use 'finder' to open and play this SWF, the track plays fine. As soon as I drag the SWF onto my html web page and preview in the browser, it is not functioning, so no sound plays. How do I need to tweak this so it could play? [code]...
View 7 RepliesI came across a website recently that outputs a whole bunch of user info: IP, browser, OS, flash version, javascript, etc in a very easy to use format. It was specifically designed for remote support, in order to determine user operating environment. However, I cant recall the name of the website.
View 1 Replieswhy a loadMovie("movie.swf", "_root.targetMC") would work on a local system, but when put onto a server (with EXACTLY the same file dir setup) would just lock up trying to transfer data? And I am talking about files that just contain one line of text, and nothing more. WTF?

View 6 RepliesBasically I am making a Turn Based battle system. Each Frame is an attack. So for the enemy I did this:
(in scene Frame) attack = Math.round (Math.random ()*2)+0;
so it would randomly attack
then I also put in this in an object INSIDE my enemy clip
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if (_root.attack == 1 || _root.attack == 2){
[Code].....
you see what ive tried to do here havent you?
why isnt it working? it plays, the random value thing works(used dynamic text box to check this) so what am i missing? (using AS2)
how does it work?
Code:
var domain = "http://www.mydomain.com";

For the past while, my developer has been working with me on a small project to put together a live interactive whiteboard app, powered by Flash Media Interactive Server. Well, everything is finished & ready to go, but there seems to be a big problem:
The app was developed & tested on a windows machine, while my server and all my website files (to integrate with) is on a Linux system.
It's been a month since this problem arrose, and there had not been any further progress with this project for the time. My developer doesn't seem to know much about how the 'conversion process' works, if there is one.
Do you know if this is possible (to convert a windows-programmed app to work on a linux system)? If so, do you know roughly how it should be handled?

I'm developing an application for the Blackberry Playbook using Flash Burrito 4.5 and Flex. I'd like to create a file browser to allow users to load images from the local system into the application. I followed this example [URL] When I click on the Load Image button in the simulator however, the file browser pops up but tells me that "no file was found with the specified filter", even though I don't specify any filter or even if I specify a . filter.

I got a textfile who i am reading on a serverside script and passing it as a script to my client side as3 code. The problem is that i am using characters like ä,ö,ü,ß and this isn't well displayed.

It doesnt matter if I tried this on the first line of the 'Action' in the first scene or in the first line of the first .as file i am loading. (btw i am only working with .as file and not in the timeline). When i am importing flash.System.* the compiler complains he dont know useCodePage.

In order to work offline I'm using XAMPP to develop a website which is working great except that I can't see any Flash content. External Flash players have no problem working offline but obviously won't load anything but SWFs and FLVs. Is there a way to get Flash to work in a browser while offline?

I implemented a FLVPlayback component in a Flash file I've published on my website, so it could load an external movie without having to put it in the SWF itself. It works fine when using the SWF offline, but when I put it online it never runs on the first go. I either have to restart the browser, or when that doesn't work I'll have to wait for a few hours before it magically does what it's supposed to do.This goes for both Safari and Firefox on my Mac, and while using Firefox on a PC (I haven't tested different scenario's yet). Once it works, it'll always work on that particular computer in that particular browser. At first I thought the browser didn't allow internet access to the SWF (the FLV that it uses are hosted on a different site), but that doesn't seem to be the problem. Maybe it's a cache issue, but I haven't been able to prove that either.URL..I kept the actionscript at a minimum. When the play button is pressed, it simply goes to the next frame where the FLVPlayback component is ready to launch the content. As you can see on my website there is a visual loader when you select the play button, but this is just an endlessly repeating movie clip that doesn't do anything accept give the viewer the idea that something's loading.
I don't have an idea about Flash & ActionScript 3.0. Please help me regarding this issue.Suppose, I have created a simple flash application(say, Test1.fla & Test1.swf file has been generated and works fine). Now, I need to use this swf file in my Java application as son as a menu-item is selected/gets clicked by the user.
But, when I run my whole application in IE7 browser window, If I select the Flash menuitem by clicking on it, then no flash file[viz., contents of Test1.swf file] gets visible.Instead a blank page without any conents is displlayed. In addition to this, it don't/doesn't display any message like this:" Install Flash Player to view the contents of swf file you need."

I have an FLV file, provided by the videographer. I put in a folder for the web. By looking at my other FLV files, they have support files included (a SWF for the skin, and a SWF for the player, along with an HTML page where it is embedded on).So, as this FLV file did not have these support files, I have copied and pasted the others to go with my new FLV. What else do I need to do to make it play on the HTML page on the web?I checked the code on the HTML page, and it merely calls up one of the SWFs so should be OK with that.Do I need the videographer to give me a FLA where the movie was imported to, or is this not necessary? I'm wondering if I need the FLA so that I can re-define the content path? Is this the only thing I need to get all components to work together and play in the browser?

View 3 RepliesI have a problem when I try to use the loadVars class in an ActionScript 2 (CS3) file. Actually, it works fine in the debugger but it doesn't work at all from a web browser (IE or FF).
This is my AS code :
ActionScript Code:
_root.testURL = "http://REMOTE_SERVER_IP:PORT/FILE.html";
var myLoadVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
_root.info.text = "Loading...";
[Code]....
I can see "File loaded" in the info text field, but the file is not called (I checked the server log) when the swf file is loaded into an HTML page and displayed by a web browser. Thus, _root.sr.text is set to undefined.
How flash communicates to the browser window it is in? For example, whenever anything changes in HTML an event is generated. When an element is clicked, an onclick event is dispatched for that element. Do flash commands, such as ActionScript's getURL() method generate events that are registered by the browser window and the DOM? If not, is there any native communication between the browser and a flash movie?

View 6 RepliesI made a swf that is heavy on graphics, it works great if the computer is good. But for the older, slower computers I'm hoping there is as3 code that can detect if the playback rate or quality is being compromsed due to processor overload?

View 1 RepliesI have created a actionscript with Capabilities function It works good, but I want to ad a If else statement on the capabilities for language.I'm running in English so the capabilities shows " EN ", but I want the if else statement to change " EN " to = English, and if we are running in different language it would say " Other language"
This is what i have at the moment.

var label2:TextField = createCustomTextField(0, 60, 200, 20);
label2.text = "language: " + Capabilities.language;
how to use the if and else statement ?
