Does Flash CS4/ AS 3.0 have the ability to publish the Flash movie and allow the user to right click in the browser and view source? I have seen this with Flex but can't seem to find a similar option in Flash.

What's the correct way to track mouse position, from Adobe Flash, when someone has: Started a drag within the Flash application (a MOUSE_DOWN event), Dragged the mouse outside the app or even the browser window (a MOUSE_MOVE event), and Released the mouse button (a MOUSE_UP event)? For example (imagine Stack Overflow is a Flash application):
Within the app, I'm able to track the mouse X and Y positions with a MOUSE_MOVE event listener, but I lose it when it goes outside of the browser... So, how do I track the position of the mouse no matter where it goes? For a good example, try Google Finance. Try dragging the chart around; it'll still drag around if you move your mouse out of the browser window, and the mouse will be outside of the browser when you release it.
Also, check out KOKO KAKA; If you click on the scrollbar (make the browser window really small) and move outside of the browser window, the scroll bar moves just like a real one would. I believe both only work because the MOUSE_DOWN event "captures" the mouse, allowing the Flash application to track the position of the mouse even when it is outside of the browser.
Some useful code for pulling the source code from the HTMLLoader:

I've seen the swc file, header-like classes, and some implementation files for
fl.*, but not flash.*!
I don't know if this is possible, but is there a command line tool included in the Flex SDK that allows me to do the same as the "view source" option in Flex/FlashBuilder : I'd like to generated HTML files with my source code etc but I don't have FlexBuilder,

View 40 RepliesI have several buttons on my "Index.swf" file. I am calling the Index.swf file in Microsoft Publisher 2007 and created "Index.html" page.
In the same way I have several individual flash files like, About.swf, Contact.swf, And each files are in seperate webpages like, About.html, Contact.html.
Suppose, when I click on a button call "About" on Index.html page. The About.html page opens but in a different window. Not in the same window.

I am currently working on a site that has to have the ability for users to view documents that are uploaded, however they need to be viewable in browser.I know there is the Google docs viewer (however this does not seem to work when trying toopen it in a fancybox overlay), but are they any other alternatives, maybe some API's that could turn them into Flash or similar, and then I could simply embed it as a swf?

We have a series of Flash banners that will be hosted on various sites and when clicked, we want to somehow id in the URL which site it came from, so they get credit for the click.
we can't produce dozens of versions of the same movie so is there a way to do this more dynamically? like append the end of the url somehow?

View 9 RepliesI have a flex 3 application that creates an Image from a canvas which the user draws on. I use the ImageSnapshot class to create the image
var imageSnap:ImageSnapshot=ImageSnapshot.captureImage(myCanvas);
var imageByteArray:ByteArray=imageSnap.data as ByteArray;
I want the user to be able to print or save the image. I can use the following code to print the image but flex does not provide good control over printing across multiple pages
var printJob:FlexPrintJob=new FlexPrintJob();
printJob.start();
printJob.addObject(myCanvas, FlexPrintJobScaleType.SHOW_ALL);
I would like to display the image in a browser window so that the user could print it using the built in browser functionality or right click on the image and save it. Can this be done without requesting server side code to do it?
I just started playing around with as3 and I have a function for mouse clicks that draws a shape on each click.

I wrote an flash actionscript 3.0 movie that needs to use netconnection and netstream for streaming. When I test the movie through flash ide the movie connects alright.But when I insert the swf in html and view from firefox, chrome or other browser NetConnection.connect() does not work. Movie sort of hangs at the moment NetConnection.connect is called(). The function assigned to NetStatusEvent is not called and no command after that moment is carried out.It only occurs when viewed through web browser but when it is tested in flash ide it works alright.

I am looking for a way to simulate a mouse hover/mouse click. What's happening is a bar is autoscrolling and checking to see if there is an active button 'below' it. Sort of like a bar rolling along a music staff and checking for notes.
What can I use to accomplish this?
I'm trying to recreate a UI for an application that my company makes in order to create an in-depth training companion to the application. One of the features is a weird tree view that works quite different from any tree view component I've ever seen, so I decided to create my own version of it as the Flash AS2 Tree Component doesn't have the functionality, and I haven't found any Tree Component for sale or download that works like that either. At first glance it seems like a standard Tree, except that it behaves differently if you click on the icon for each node than if you click on the label.
Some labels are links, some nodes can have 2 different labels, each with their own link, and most nodes have a second label underneath the label next to the icon (these don't have events assigned to them; they're just a quick way to view information). So anyway, I set up an XML file with all the information that I need (the easy part), but populating the whole thing, making sure each subnode can properly exist within each parentnode while allowing me to open and close them has been a real challenge.
Basically, I decided to use a whole bunch of loops to go through the nodes in the XML, but my lack of experience in using them is kicking my rear end. Basically, I need some code that can evaluate all the nodes in the XML and sort them within the proper hierarchies and then create all the clips in the stage to add the mouse events for opening, closing, and handling the links (which do not direct to the same event as when the icon next to that link is clicked).
I have a custom UIComponent that is basically just this:
public class WhiteboardUIComponent extends UIComponent
{
public function WhiteboardUIComponent() {
super();
[Code]....
This is absolutely the simplest that I could make the example. The s:View is gobbling up my mouse events - if I add a handler in the MXML to the View, I get mouse events just fine. When adding a handler programmatically in my subclass' constructor, I get nothing. I thought maybe the layout was wrong, so I explicitly set the dimensions of my UIComponent and stuck it in a border just to be sure it was where it was supposed to be - same deal.
I am quite new to actionscript 3.0 but i'm sure this should be so simple. The objective is to get the camera view to move when the mouse button is down. Here I have managed to get the camera view to move forward using the UP arrow key:
