I am debugging AS3 in Flash CS4, a variable becomes NULL but I don't know who changes it at when. Is it possible to watch this variable and when the value changes to null, it stops?
i have 5 submit buttons for example. When each submit button is clicked, a portion of the application is done. When all 5 portions are completed(or when 5 variables == true) I want something to happen.As of right now, on my submit buttons I am checking to see if all variables are true like so...

I've been trying to use the object.watch() method. I've never used this before, so I'm assuming I'm pretty far off base here. What I have is a parent movie (_root.) that has a bunch of variables. As the user progresses through the movie/project the variables change based on the user's actions. Within this parent movie there is another movie embedded. In this movie, things change based on the variable changes of the parent movie. So, for instance, say the user gets through frame #20 and hits the "next" button in the parent movie, this triggers a variable change in the parent movie, which then causes the embedded movie to change its color from blue to red (or whatever, action doesn't matter)
I've been told that there is a gaming site that you just need to upload your flash game and it automatically detects scoring and adds the scores to an online highscore table.is it possible?can i somehow using javascript or a 2nd flash file to load a flash and to debug all of it's variables without having the source?
im getting really frustrated because i can not watch any of the NHL videos on [url]......i have the latest FLASH plugin but i just get a black screen when trying to view a video. Im running vista.
How can I 'watch' for changes in the _width, scroll, maxscroll properties other than onEnterFrame / setInterval etc. Btw. I tryed <object>.watch but found this in the AS ref:
"Generally, predefined ActionScript properties, such as _x, _y, _width, and _height, are getter/setter properties and cannot be watched with Object.watch(). "
Why do I need this? Im making a dynamic textfield with a scrollbar that will display loaded text, but here's the catch. The site is on a single frame, and has a button that uses a resizeTo() function (a Flash extension) on the textfield and changes it's _width value. So thats why I need to update these values for the scrollbar to be accurate.
i'm Creating a Game and Watch style game. Now with these games the everything works off keyframes so I've been trying to create a character that spawns in(he will first flash in over a couple of key frames, then on labeled keyframes are animations of him holding objects), then depending on a chance it will spawn either 1 or the other power up. Then you can go up to him and collect the item, he will disappear. here is some code for the idea i have for spawning, but how can i then call upon random outcomes between the two options that are 'labeled' inside the class. basical four keyframes of him flashing then four of him with a jug labeles "oil" then four of him with food labled "kabab". is it possible?
I would like to know if there is a way to watch / listen to variables or object properties using the eventDispatcher class ? I checked tutorials about this class and I understand basics but I really don't see how to do this..
I know the existence of the watch() function, but I heard its possible to use eventDispatcher instead...
Why can't I watch youtube videos on my laptop? It's brand new. I can go to the website and the video loads just fine. It starts to play but then shortly after it quits. The monitor flickers and then goes black. I don't think it's the Adobe Flash player.
Is a watch list hidden away somewhere in the AS3 debugger in Flash CS4? I did spend a while looking around the net first. It's much easier to find the watch list in the AS2 debugger.
I got some issues trying to watch Lee's Advanced Flash preloader tutorial. The video stops in the begining, cant download full file too. Stops when he begins to explain about the bandwidth.
We are a Wireless ISP and we have portal page at a local airport. We offer free wifi there because of sponsorship. We would like the page to have a 30 sec movie on it that people have to watch in order to get online. I have 2 ideas on how to do this. 1. watch the movie and when movie is over automatically call to our login script and then log the user in through our network device. 2. have a get online button grayed out until the movie is over after the movie is over button becomes clickable and then the button after clicked calls to the script that logs my users in through my device.
I'm wanting to have ads radomly play before people watch a video on my site.Is there a way to write the script for this and place it in the xml or do I have to something differently.I already have the video up on our site. So I'm just not sure how I "connect" the actionscript and xml that way it plays the commercial before the video.Do I have to build a new player and everything to do this? I've never built a player before, so if I don't have to, I'd rather not.
I want to make a flash form where the viewer/user can watch a video clip of their choice (from a drop-down control or something else if there's a better way). I've found myself totally unable to find our how to do this. I mean, frankly, I don't even know what kind of file to start from the "New..." form at the beginning of Flash (CS 3.0, btw)!
I know how to create a Flash Player and link it to a single video. What I envision is that after the page comes up, with a single player component (initially empty), the user chooses a video from the drop-down list and that video starts playing in the player. What kind of file should I be starting with? {I kinda assume I'll be making an SWF to put on a web page.} Where on earth do I learn how to get the simplest things (e.g., button clicks, etc.) to work?
I've read suggest naming the stream in the FMLE to something like mp4:mystream.mp4 or mp4:mystream.f4v but then you can no longer view the stream, and according my the admin console the stream will not even publish using this syntax.
I can view the published stream if I name the FMLE stream to something like mystream.mp4 or just mystream, but then it doesn't record at all or records as a FLV file depending on how I code the main.asc file.
How can I allow Android users to watch a live stream? I've tried using the code snippet below but the video never plays on the devices. The video player comes up, they click play, an ajax spinning/loading wheel comes up but it never plays. I've tested on Android 2.3.6
I am looking for a watch expression debugger for Flash AS3 (not flex). I have found this: demonsterdebugger but the refresh is not in real time (like the trace does), it has a lag of 3 seconds. It is important because i am developing a flash box2d game so I need the coordinates while playing.I've tried also KapInspect with the Digiex pluging, but it gets down the framerate and it is embebbed. So it is not good for me. Can you please tell me one good debugger? I am using Flash Builder 4 (it has not whach expression inspector)
I have a 180mb SWF which is a lecture from one of my online classes, when i try to watch it i can watch about 20 minutes and then it will run out of memory. I watched in my task manager as Flash player went from only using 20mb to upwards of 500mb to 1000mb and it kept going up, it's like the more i watch it just keeps going up and up. Tried it on 3 different computers and still get the same problem, is there some reason this would be happening? Why does flash player eat up so much memory? I have Adobe Flash CS4 installed so it's playing through the player not a web browser or anything. (tried it in web browser and it does the same thing)
Is there an SWF player with a slider control, play and Stop, total play time; so you can jump to different sections in an SWF movie without having to watch it from beginning to end?
I am making a Scrollbar component and I want a script to call a calculation function for resizing the scrollbar when a new data is loaded.I was experimenting with Object.watch but it's use is beyond me. I don't understand if its the thing I need.Can Object.watch call a function when say a dynamic textfield's data is changed?
