ActionScript 3.0 :: Contains A Swf That Is Just A Container And The Assets Are Impossible To Get Hold Of?
Dec 10, 2010
I am tired of people always stealing my swfs from the cache folder and taking the assets, sure I can encrypt my code but the assets are also very important to me. I have goggled and goggled till I can Google no more and finally found the eminem bonus site which contains a widget that works perfectly, it contains a swf that is just a container and the assets are impossible to get hold of.

Given is an online swf on Hubworld's site, which loads two configuration XMLs into an .swf file, then displays a game. A copy of the Flash with the two configuration files can be found here. [URL]. If unzipped into a folder, it loads the two XML files and displays everything correctly. The problem is, how to take it apart?
I tried decompiling the file, but it only shows up as a (mostly) empty file with a single symbol and a few misc tags inside it, despite the file itself containing several hundreds of vectors. [URL] I severly doubt that any sort of encryption or obfuscation is present, since it's a children's game and I took apart many others without a problem. How could I retrieve the said files from the container?

This is sort of a repost, but because this thread is in the AS3 section the subject is inherently different because this board doesn't have anything to do with Flex.So, I want to put a bunch of assets within one file (SWF maybe) and load it at runtime. Then I want to be able to access these assets after I've loaded the file.As is visible by my previous thread, I have no idea where to begin, but I know it's "absolutely" possible and obviously very useful.
Even if the loaded file isn't an SWF file, I'm fine with it. I would prefer to be able to store vector graphics in it though, maybe even produced in CS3/4/5 (because that's what my friend's using to draw said graphics).Looking forward to hearing from some of you over here--now that the thread has a more general subject.

I was certain that this type of problem would have been previously discussed here or in a tutorial. I have looked quite a bit and could not find anything that puts all the pieces of my puzzle together.As the movie is playing (looping), I would like the movie to stop at the current frame whenever I click and hold the mouse down within the area of the container. Furthermore, I would like to be able to scrub the movie backward if I drag my mouse to the left within the container and as I reach the left end of the container, the movie is at the first frame. And similarly, I would like to scrub forward if I drag to the right within the container and as I reach the right end of the container, the movie is at the last frame. On top of this daunting task, I would like the movie to resume playing from wherever I have released the mouse.
Here is a file that I have started and I am pretty much at a loss as to where to go now. I know it has something to do with where the mouse is relative to either side of the container, but...how does one get it to work?Basically, I would like to emulate the functionality of the QuickTime Player - the one where you can grab the slider and drag it left or right to scrub in either direction and then upon release of the slider it resumes playing.I do not understand the media components in MX 2004, maybe this type of thing is "easy" to program in to one of those modules?

I've got a symbol on stage and a button. The button rotates the symbol CCW half a degree. Code: on(release){ mySymbol._rotation -= 0.5;} I wanna add an on (press and hold) action on button so that the symbol will be rotated continuously when the button is on hold.. I can't make this work for over a week now.

I want an air application to be able to update the assets it uses, but minimizing the download needed, so only downloading files added since it last updated.I'm thinking this would include a server portion which would zip the needed files based on a version number? Has anyone implemented anything similar / got any thoughts on the best approach to building this sort of system?

This is sooo anoying! I can't type anything properly! The longer a line gets, the further the blinking line thing intersects with what you typed, and punctuation obstructs the text

I have a web page generated with PHP which has a lot of divs with rollover effects. It represents a table with more than 200 cells, but is made of divs instead of a table because I've read they are more efficient (specially in IE8 which has turn out my nightmare in this project!) In the same page I want to put a ticker for user messages with horizontal text scrolling. I have tried to implement the ticker in different ways: pure Javascript or with jquery pluggins: [URL] Well, the thing is that the ticker works great when the page loads, but as soon as the user starts to move the cursor over the table (rollover effects are triggered) the ticker becomes very jerky in IE8 (Firefox works almost perfect)
After a lot of work tunning my PHP/HTML code I gave up and decided to embed a flash object for the ticker in order to relieve the browser part of the scripting and delegate it to flash. My surprise was that it had the same defect. I am not an expert in how the browser deals with flash objects but I really though it would be a solution. I've found a example which illustrate the problem. [URL] This a page with a commercial flash object. It's really much more than what I need, but if you try (with IE8) to move the cursor around the right section of the page, over the elements with rollover effects, you'll notice that the ticker becomes less smooth. Imagine that within a page with 200 divs!

I have been reading some posts and it said that keeping the ability edit a textfield and have it dragable is impossible.
Is this the case?
I am basically trying to build a simple version of illustrator for class... Really basic, i just want to pull a textfield around a work area.

No matter how much I try, nothing works.
1. Moving a loader instance to a movieclip containter returns a coercion error.
2. Moving the loaded image object to a MC container does not produce any errors, but remains as a bitmap object.
3. bitmapdata.draw() method seems to require either a bitmap or bitmapdata destination object.

I want to add a listener to the parent of a slider which is receiving the event from a non-gui class the EventDispatcherManager. So I tried to get the parent of the slider which should return the main class but it doesn't work. How to get the object (here main class) which instantiates an other (here a slider class) ?[code] now I did cast to DisplayObject and use .parent.parent since the slider is within another class sliderSprite but now I get null! So Is it impossible with Flash to get the Instance Creator?[code]

When you duplicate a movieclip or generate one through AS hittest will allways return true. I tried to make a selection script, by putting the code below into the frame. It makes a rectangle to select charclip movieclips (duplicated and numbered, therefor the for loop) to select them, like when you select icons on a desktop. Unfortunately, it will select all charclips wether theyre inside the rectangle or not. I tried to confirm this behaviour by making a simple hittest script like the one discribed on the kirupa actionscript tutorial, with a moviecript and a duplicated one. The moviescript was detected when it actually hit it, the duplicated one was detected all the time. How do I circumvent this? Should I ducplicate in an existing movieclip or something?
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("sfield",10000000);
_root.onMouseDown = function(){
x=_xmouse;

I have an application where I try to load an external SWF. So, we have:
My application: The Stage's dimensions are 768x1280. ScaleMode = EXACT_FIT.
External SWF: It's another application where its stage is: 800x600. ScaleMode = EXACT_FIT.
The problem is that the external SWF does not modify its size although I apply "scaleX, scaleY", change its width and so on. I also tried to insert it into a Canvas container (as "How to resize an external SWF to fit into a container?" ) but it didn't solve my problem.
The interesting piece of code is when the external SWF is loaded by my application:
private function onLoadedApp( evt:Event ):void{
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.EXACT_FIT;
trace("Loading Application..");
var loaderInfo:LoaderInfo = evt.target as LoaderInfo;
loaderInfo.removeEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, onLoadedApp);
[Code] .....
I also tried to do it through SWFLoader, but the external.swf's content doesn't change its original size although I add the "scaleContent" parameter.
Visual results I got:
The external SWF is loaded on the suitable position and it "seems" to have 320x240 dim. But its width is a bit cropped, since if I stretch the Flash Player I achieve to see the rest of the external swf's stage. Besides, the external SWF never is resized although I shrink/stretch the Flash Player. It always remains fixed (if I trace its dimensions, I always get 800x600, although I visually see 320x240)- If I increase the stage's width of the main application, this little clip disappear.
I know the original Stage's dimensions are 800, and this is greater than the original stage of my application (768), but I think, when I do the resizing, external SWF's Stage have to be fitted in the container. It is fitted, but a part of the external SWF is not seen. It's like Flash Player remembered that the external SWF Stage's width were greater than my application's one...

I'm considering taking on a new project for myself - nothing particularly major - but I've a few questions that I'm certain anyone with some serious experience with Flash might be able to answer for me or perhaps (hopefully) guide me in the right direction for alternatives.
So I have an idea for a horizontal menu that I want to design using Flash (I've only experience with AS3 - odd as that is? - so that'll be how it'll be designed). As I'm coming to understand it's difficult/impossible to have the embedded flash interact with other portions of the HTML, so for every time that a menu item is clicked, is the only way to go about moving to that page just having the entire page effected - ie each page (home, port, etc) has to also include the embedded flash as well, or can I just have it affect some subwindow or section of the page, instead?

How would you go about initializing a Vector. with say the values 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Logic would say you could do newVector = new Vector. ( [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] );
You could also try something like this...
var tmp = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
newVector = new Vector.();
newVector = newVector.concat(tmp);
But then you get a type error converting Array to Vector.
I'm stumped, am I missing something stupid or does the vector class really not play well with numeric types? You can try making them decimal numbers just to be sure they get cast as number and not int.

In a Flex Mobile project I have a simple itemRenderer where I'm trying to create an "bubble" texting effect, similar to ichat or iphone (just so you get what im going for). But if the text is longer than the screen it runs off, rather than just going down a line.
If I set Group thats holding the rectangle(to create the bubble effect) and the label to 100% it works and keeps it from exceeding the list containers bounds, BUT the group is always at 100% and looks bad, I'm trying to keep the "bubble" JUST AROUND the text.
Anyway so, at the top of my itemRenderer I tried specifying:
<s:ItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" width="100%" height="100%">
And here's my layout I figured since msg_container has a width of 100% I was hoping bubble_lable_group would just not exceed that but...it doesnt...it just runs off. I tried setting a max width but that does not allow you to input percents. And just to say it 1 more time. I know if i set bubble_lable_group width to 100% it works, and keeps it from going off the edge, but then the rectangle "bubble" stretches all the way across and just looks bad.
<s:VGroup id="main_container" horizontalAlign="left" paddingBottom="10" paddingTop="10"
verticalAlign="top" width="100%">

So im opening it up to the commuity as a programming challenge!!For something which i assumed would be very simple, writting a robust and solid multi turn spinner handle for flash in as3 has become the bane of my life.Feel free to download my attempts so far (attached), which cover the basics of a single rotation, and make it look like im further ahead than i actually am.The difficulty lies with the very specific things I personally need the spinner to do,and the fact its SO HARD to explain..Its actually used to control a piece of animation that is 72 frames long.I need the first "lap" of rotation to send the playhead to frames in the 1-36 range and the second rotation to send it to frames 37-72. So two full spins would take it to the final frame, one full spin would go half way to frame 36.
Problem is the rotator handle needs to be locked at the initial position, so a user can't drag it backwards to start with but can drag it backwards once theyve moved forwards. (think of turning on a hot water tap, many turns in one direction until it stops fully on, then the same turns back again to reach the original start position of fully off)I also need the rotator to be able to be used in anti clockwise and clockwise modes.The ideal is to be able to set the total number of animation frames to be controlled and the number of rotations required to reach the final frame, then have the spinner work everything else out for me.

I have a loop that goes through data from a book and displays it. The book is not consistent in it's layout so I am trying to display it in two different ways. First way(works fine) is to load the text from that section in to a panel and display it. The second way is to create a new panel (panel creates fine) and then add collapsable panels(nested) to that panel. Here is the code from the else loop.
else if (newPanel == false){
// simpleData is just for the title bar of the new panel
// otherwise the panel has no content
[Code]....
The error I get is: ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property panel4.4 not found on components.readTest and there is no default value.
I have tried setting the "name" property instead of the "id" property.

I am creating an flex Air project,so mxml file will run. I have circles in one Big circle at one side and will be same on other side.
Now how to drag any circle from any Big circle to other side. Or it could be like any two container having circles, then how to drag and drop circle?
For one circle i am able to do drag and drop.But I want one Big circle on left hand side and one big circle on right hand side .And small circles with class names will be in these big circles.Now i want to drag and drop those small circles in big circles.Big cicles should not move. Even i have tried this code in actionscript
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
[Code].....
But in this i want big circles should not move and small circles should only be dragged.

I need to place an image into a container. The problem is that I will not know the size of the image or the container beforehand, so it all has to be dynamic.this is how I started (have not gotten to stage(or container) changing size yet. No matter what I try, either all the images are the same width, or they are all the same height. If some images are portrait and other landscape, I don't want all the images to be X pixels high. In this variation of the code, all the images turn out the same height, regardless of portrait or landscape.
ActionScript Code:
var ratio:Number = container.width/container.height;//get the ratio, if width is bigger than height then ratio is greater than 1, else ratio is smaller than 1

I just upgraded from Flash CS3 to Flash CS5, and I've been playing with the various new features. However, I've just encountered an odd problem that I can't seem to find a solution to. In the past, I've made animated GIFs in CS3 by exporting them with the "Smooth" box unchecked. This was really convenient for me because not only could I export crisp pixel bitmaps from Flash, but I could edit it in another program later. I was planning on making some GIF animations via this process with the aid of the bone tool in CS4 and 5.
When I tried exporting frames of of a figure created with the bone tool in CS5, however, I got images that were fuzzy and often had distorted colors. After some time, I realized that this was because in CS3, I had exported the images from ActionScript 2 files, while the bone tool only works in ActionScript 3 files. Is it not possible to export "rough" GIFs from ActionScript 3 files, or is there a trick to doing that that I'm somehow missing?

I'm currently working on a custom component which extends Canvas (let's call it SuperCanvas) ; it's basically a container that let you zoom & pan its contents. It would be too long to explain why, but I can't use scrollRect, so I was forced to declare a Canvas object (called innerCanvas)... inside my SuperCanvas (I know, not very nice =/) I would like to know if there's a proper way to "redirect" the creation of my component's children in this canvas.
