ActionScript 3.0 :: Conversion Utility That Uses Number Input Via Calculator Style Buttons To Generate Conversion
Mar 13, 2012
im trying to create a conversion utility that uses number input via calculator style buttons to generate conversion for the following distances:
-Miles to/from KM
-cm to/from mm
-binary to/from decimal
Now i was thinking of possibly having the options contained within an drop down and an input text field where the numbers are entered via the calculator buttons. The only thing im struggling with is how to perform the actual calculations on the different formats. Has anyone had to do anything similar in the past? Ive only found currency conversion examples and not sure how to apply that to these conversions.
i have a project I am working on which requires many conversions. I am currently doing it manually and it's starting to make me crazy. I was told this could be done in Flash, which would be great, but I have little skill with Flash, and I'm not really sure where to start. What I need to do is:
1. Convert unorthodox units of measure to conventional units (mm/cm and inches/feet). These "unorthodox" units of measure are based on conventional units, so it's just a matter of saying a "widget" = 9.5mm (or) 0.3740063645"... etc. (just a simple example). There are 3 different unorthodox units in total, each with its own value.
2. To complicate things the unorthodox units are affected by "classes". (Here is another basic example)... say there are four classes of widget,
The string (score0.text) will have an "s" at the end as the time is counted in seconds and tenths, so I will be receiving something along the lines of "8.1s" as a value.. I would like to take score0.text, remove the "s" then *1000 the amount as a number before use..
I have been trying to convert a number into text.I have first found out the length of the number and then split them into individual values. Say i get 4456 the values returned are Length = 4 & split values = 4,4,5,6.Now i want to convert them into words like four,four ,five,six.Is there anyway i can convert them?
I have a Flash Builder 4.6 project that is referencing an external ActionScript calculation library (swc). I am having some annoying issues when trying to convert a number to a string for display.
[CODE]...
The first assignment of totalFuelCosts is fine, but the second to totalEmissions constantly gives me the following error: 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type String to an unrelated type Number I initially used toString() which worked fine, then about 10 minutes later gave me an error. So I switch to String() which again works fine, then about 10 minutes later gives me an error. I have also click 'Project' 'Clean' and cleaned all projects, this clears the error, but it comes back again about 10 minutes later.
Inside my code i have some variables declared as Numbers, and i get some others from an external source; these variables can either be Numbers or String representation of Numbers. Now, i have to implement some equality controls on these variables, and since i don't know in that moment which type are them of, i'm converting all of them to Numbers (i don't need and neither want to compare strings) via the Number() function which accepts either Numbers or Strings as an input. These controls can compare 2 single variables or a variable and a sum (or subtraction) of other variables, for example:
I often recieve FLV files for work and need to convert them to SWF. I know that flash imports FLA files but not FLV... I converted the FLV the F4V, opened it in flash, exported it as a SWF and it worked great... once.After that it rendered a white screen. How can I take an FLV file and properly convert it to a SWF suitable for web serving?
I have been creating animations for children, and recently finished an animated short. I am more of an artist than a techie, and I have not been able to find a clear cut answer as to what is the best way to convert flash to DVD. What file should be converted to achieve the best quality? SWF? MOV file? Is there a way to do it from flash? from Adobe Premier? I tried the AVI output and the quality was terrible.
Is a seperate converter needed? If so, are which give the best quality audio and visually? Here are some of the basic requirements for an animated short entry: DVDs must be compatible with standard set-top DVD players-- do not simply burn a quicktime or AVI file to a disc as data. It is highly preferred that you send us an NTSC, Region 1 or region free (Region 0) DVD when submitting to us, but we will also accept PAL and SECAM formats as well. If you are sending a DVD that has a region code other than 0 or 1, and/or a format other than NTSC, please mark this CLEARLY on the disc AND on the DVDcase.
I have buttons across the way that are going to listen if they are clicked and if they are clicked it performs a test that says "if i'm not on this page then go to it"I'm a script kiddy I'll admit so I copy paste and go with what works. My compiler errors are down drastically when publishing to AS3.
I am working on a project in which i need to convert swf file to jpg and mail it to customer.So for converting swf to jpg i used as3corelib the all code run successfully but the converted image is not showing in php page.my script is as follows,
how to convert swf movie clip to image format(jpg,gif) using action script 2.0.I successfully done this using action script 3.0 But my project in action script 2.0.
i've been working throught the great book, Quote:'foundation flash for designers'I thought i'd play around with an mp3 player, the example below uses an array for the mp3's, i want to load them using xml.whatever i'm doing i'm getting lots of errors, i have done xml loading before but this seems a bit more difficult.
PHP Code: var songList:Array = new Array("alternative.mp3", "rockfunk.mp3", "chill.mp3"); var isPlaying:Boolean = false;
I make basic promo videos for some of my clients & a couple need the file in swf format.Currently I am using iMovie (for basic image to image cross disolves). I am learning Premier Pro& plan on using that in the next month or so.iMovie exports in .mov format. What is the best way of converting to swf? Would it be media encoder to FLV, then Flash to SWF?
I created a thread about converting an .as file to xml and then back. I asked too mny questions in that thread, I apologize...I was being greedy. Does anyone know how to, once you have a string, convert it to XML.
Searched around for this one a bit. Kinda sucks that there are a lot of synonyms for HSV.
HSB, HLS, HSL, HSB, HBS, etc.
Basically Hue, Saturation and ( Brightness / Value / Luminosity ).
What I am trying to accomplish is an extremely fast way to convert 24-bit RGB values to 24-bit HSV values. I've tried a few different ways with somewhat unexpected results.
Using a lookup table for every 24-bit color eats tons of memory and is actually slower than calculating the values on-the-fly (doesn't make sense to me).
Here's a partial example of what I currently use:
Code: package org.peaceoutside.utils { public class ColorMath {
I have a whole bunch of WAV files, and for each of them I am to create a SWF file, which will contain this WAV (of course compressed as MP3) on the first frame, and then on a separate leyer there will be a stop action on the last frame, corresponding to length of this WAV. The SWF is supposed to have the same name as WAV. I s there any way to automate this process?
I am converting a regular movie from Windows moviemaker wmv export (exported at highest quality) and converting it with Xilisoft flv converter (at highest quality upon conversion) and I noticed the output quality of the final FLV is degradated a little. Some of the symptoms are: lower light, slight pixelation,and loss of crisp detail. Audio sounds great but why does the picture lose it's clarity from how it looks in moviemaker? I can see the crispness of the outlines in the video in Moviemaker, but in the final flv, it loses that. Is there anything I can do to make it keep it's original crisp look like how it looks in MM, or do you have to expect a loss of quality when using flvs?
This is a mockup of my swf: It's just a menu and a sprite named scene (which is a container for obj1 and obj2 and it's child obj3).The obj1 and obj3 are draggable. While dragging them the MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE is fired and in it's event handler I'm updating a textfield with the object's coordinates relative to the scene object:
When I move obj1 I have no problems because it's parent is scene and the coordinates I want are the coordinates relative to scene. But when I try to move.obj3 I'm getting the coordinates relative to it's parent (obj2) and I want the coordinates of obj3 relative to scene.I tried to convert the objectBeingDragged coordinates to global and then to local but I had no success...
private function onMouseMove(e:MouseEvent):void { var localPoint:Point = new Point(objectBeingDragged.x, objectBeingDragged.y); var globalPoint:Point = objectBeingDragged.localToGlobal(localPoint);[code].....
I'm not that good with Math and i have a formula for a that it's universal from what i understood but i dont know how to transform it to work with Flash's Math API.
I am wondering if it is possible to get a url to some image on google, say a square (jpg/png/gif), and process it into an SVG. Is this possible?
Right now I'm getting ByteArray data in Actionscript by making a URLRequest('image/on/google'), with dataFormat="binary". I don't think Actionscript could handle/do it, but maybe it could. I'm also good with Ruby, so perhaps is this possible with Ruby?
If so, any sample code/libraries to get started?
I guess another way to ask it is, how do I convert a Bitmap to a set of Vector Paths like Adobe Illustrator does?
Question: How can I solve this and is there a bug in the API? PS: I admit the code isn't straight forward because it simply didn't work. PPS: SimpleXMLEncoder throws stack overflow if I have objects that have a property value referencing to other objects... so that's why I want to write my own method for the conversion
From java i am sending ordered Map.In flex when i convert that into Object i am loosing the order which i maintained in java.Is there any other way to maintain the order in flex object?
I converted Gregorian to Julian simply using the code below:[code]I am having difficulty reversing the equation... I have searched everywhere, but everywhere I look is come complex gobbledeegook javascript code, which is difficult to translate for me.
i want to do some cryptographic routines in my flash. I've encrypted .jpg files on my server, so I can't use simple Loader class, to download that data as Bitmap. I'm thinking to:
1) download it with URLLoader as BINARY data in ByteArray class.
2) decrypt the data
3) convert to BitmapData. (..., is this possible ?
