I've been trying to build some GUI for a level editor using Yahoo's ASTRA Flash Components using the FlashDevelop IDE. After finally including all the "Global Classpaths", I managed to almost get it to compile apart from one Warning that causes the build to fail.
Code:
C:UsersJoshDesktopFruitBoxsrccomyahooastraflcontrolsMenu.as(720): col: 31 Warning: return value for function 'anonymous' has no type declaration.
This is apparently where the warning is triggered:
PHP Code:
// Activate the menu
//this.setFocus();
setFocus();
//set a timeout to fix an issue with accessibility events
var func:Function = function(){ dispatchEvent(new Event(Event.CHANGE))};
[Code] ......
I'm trying to use the Astra library from Yahoo but I'm getting an error saying the base class BaseScrollPane is not found. It appears to be imported from fl.containers.BaseScrollPane, which leads me to believe it should be a part of the base flash 10 library and therefore should be available, but it appears to be missing. Is this part of a separate package from somewhere?
Update: For what it's worth, I found the actual class files in the Configuration/Component Source folder on my hard drive, but adding that to the class path (as well as the Components directory) did no good. I ended up fixing the issue by dragging a scroll pane component to the stage from the Components window and then deleting it, but I'm not sure what exactly that action changed that made it work, and would like to know for future reference.
So yahoo astra has grate compohent for saving inputed data. They show examples of how to use it. But I had not found one capable to solve my current problem. For example user inputed his name. It is saved, but when he comes again he always needs to input at least first latter of his name. so I wonder - how to make Yahoo astra autocompletemanager component to pop up last inputed into it value on application creation complete?
I'm currently working on a Flash website project that uses Yahoo messenger.Can we put a Yahoo Messenger on a Flash Website?If just like a HTML website i know it can, but i don't know if we can use the YM like chat with me in a flash website..
I need some brilliant Flash experts to weight in on an article we wrote at the advertising agency I work for. We put an article together about the ability for Flash to be indexed by Google and Yahoo. It's a two sided debate between Search Engine Optimization (SEO) guys and Flash guys. SEO is killing Flash right now in the debate.[URL]
In the past week it appears that Yahoo has changed their crossdomain file to only accept Yahoo domains [URL]This is causing my applications that use Yahoo Maps to stop working (i.e. security exception). I cannot proxy the calls to Yahoo because the URL is embedded in the MXP file that Yahoo distributes.
how to call a feed from yahoo pipes into flash? here is the rss feed that yahoo says to reference to obtain the xml: [URL] whenever i try to call that, as if calling any other xml file, flash says the file cannot be opened.
I am trying to make a flash widget using yahoo weather API. Since it uses RSS I thought it was simples but I am stuck. I just don't know how to extract info inside this xml line: <yweather:units temperature="C" distance="km" pressure="mb" speed="kph"/>

How can I make a doodle pad like this for a website? Is flash the only option? I wanted to make one for advert design.Edit Basically, I want to provide features like customized text (font/color/size) and placement, option to put any image with scale/rotate/transform option etc so that he can design advert himself. Edit2What could be alternative approaches to design this kind of editor?Edit3I've also seen options like o3d and webGL but it seems they won't work on most of the browsers.
I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me with a problem I am having. I am trying to develop a simulation of a browser in Flash, and need to have a button which allows users to be able to go back to a previous screen (e.g. another .swf file) which means I need the window to be to move between .swf files.
I have tried various methods I have found online, but none seem to be working.
Would it be legal for me to develop fla files with the demo version of Adobe Flash CS5 and have my friend, who owns a full copy of flash pro, to export them to swf? This would be much like using the developer version of ColdFusion.
I would like to develop a component for use in Flash CS5 and I would like to look at the source code for the existing components in order to understand how they work. However, I am unable to find this source code. On this page:
[URL]
Under "Where component files are stored" there are a number of directories listed, all under
However, this directory does not exist on my installation. C:Program FilesAdobeAdobe Flash CS5enConfiguration does exist, but there is no directory called "Component Source" in this directory.
I've been waiting for the day that flash gets access to raw audio data. That day is now, but i'm not sure how to get 10.1 working in CS4. I have 10.1 installed and a function bound to the mic's "SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA" but my "micSampleData" function is not being called.
var mic = Microphone.getMicrophone(); Security.showSettings(SecurityPanel.MICROPHONE); mic.setUseEchoSuppression(true);
I am developing a flash application required me to have a rotational sprite object cycling around the 3D space. I saw a MovieClip has a z-index that can be used as z coordinates in 3d space but couldn't find it in sprite object. How to I get around with that.
I am trying to develop a sidescroller game in as3. Most of my confusion is coming from my lack of knowledge on the best way to strucutre the classes that control the games flow.For example, what would be the best way to change the game state from the main menu, to the in game state, WITH VISUAL TRANSITION INCLUDED?
The way I'm thinking of doing it now is adding event listeners to buttons, which remove the main menu MC and add a transition MC. Then I add an event listener to the transition MC to watch for the frame label "end of transition". This removes the transition MC and adds the GameContainer MC.
I'm looking to develop an application that allows you to set up an online spreadsheet or to be able to draw a custom table format. Can someone point me in the right direction. I've been googling for a week now and can't find any direction.
I'm able to format and display the text within my swf, however once its uploaded to the internet - the text either won't show up, or the flash player shows a security error "flash player is trying to communicate withI've tried to feed the data through to my own domain, but I'm not sure how to program for it. I've found php examples online, but I'm not sure how to implement them either. I need the stock quote price to display and update either once a day, or only when the swf loads. Currently I'm using the following code to retrieve the data (within flash):
fl_TextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); var fl_TextURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=SNA.V&f=l1sd1");
I am changing over one of my projects from google maps to yahoo maps and was wondering who out there has experience with the yahoo maps api. Below you will see the code i was using with the google maps api to create custom markers using a library item as that marker. The library asset has some variables that need to be defined as you will see in the first part of my for loop. and this function needs to clear all the previously created overlays, before the for loop is run.
My problem occurrs when I change the yahoo written example: [AS] import com.yahoo.maps.tools.PanTool; import com.yahoo.maps.markers.CustomPOIMarker; myMap.addEventListener("initialize", onInitMap); function onInitMap(event:Object):Void { var panToolanTool = new PanTool(); [Code] ..... Ive taken out the EventListener as it never picked up onInitMap() and displayed the map without it, maybe this is where the problem is? It even recognises the text if you put lots of text into the description, as in it make the bubble alot wider but just doesn't show the actual text.
developing Search Engine in flash cs3.I am going to develop a search engine in flash. My goal is to develop a search engine in flash which should work more or less like Google.
I am trying to develop a simple product catalog using flash and xml. The xml file only has a list of catagories and under each a few products. I have a combobox wich list the catagories and another which list the products in that catagory. Each works fine but the products don't change according to the catagory that is selected in the catagory combobox. How do I change this. I use xmlConnector to bind the data to both.
2. When I browse through the products using a loader component sometimes there is flicker and you can see the image before it is resized. This is realy annoying. Should I use a movieclip loader? The images are not all the same size.
