ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Localizable Application In Flash?
Jan 21, 2011
I've been struggling my mind for two days and I can't still find an easy way to localize a Flash movie. Well, *tons* of flash movies... Previously (AS2) I was using the old trick of using variables in textfields. So if you used as var name "_root.text057" and you did something as "_root.text057='blah'", the text field was automatically updated.
What would be the more fast and efficient way to create a localizable application in Flash/AS3? I'm under the assumption that the programmer doesn't know exactly what is going to be loaded in his movie (how many text fields and so on) but he must still provide a mechanism as automagic as possible in order to redirect those pesky strings in a XML doc into the textfield where they should reside.

I need to make my Flash application create a connection to a remote application and have the remote application send periodic updates to my Flash animation. The remote app is written in VB 6, and does not support XML sockets. However, I don't need the ability to send or receive XML since I am going to be overriding the onLoad() event anyway.
Or maybe I do need that ability... I'm having trouble getting my onLoad() event to trigger. Right now I'm just testing the onLoad event like this:
[code]...
So, basically I'm trying to find out how I can format the data I'm sending it so that the onLoad() event triggers. I've read that the XMLSocket object listens for the Null byte, so perhaps the data I'm sending it doesn't terminate properly. I need a persistent connection from Flash to the VB app because the VB app will be the one initiating the updates to the Flash application. Is the XMLSocket the way to go here, or is there another class of objects that I'm missing?

I'm trying to create a flash application where the user can add points (I call them draggers) and he can move those points around an image. What needs to happen is that I will use these points and their coordinates to change the image.
What I need help on is how to accomlish the rotation. Let's say the user has added three points on the stage, and they want to rotate the three points along the center of whatever triangle they form.

A while ago, we created a replacement shell to run as a front end for a cybercafe. It was nothing fancy; just a flash movie that had button links to IE and a few trusted applications.
I'm trying to develop it further now and am wondering two things:
1. Is it possible to send an application to a frame within a movie? For example, have a static movie at the top with links, then when a button is pressed, the menu remains but the application opens below without overlapping. I know I can use HTML and frames but really want to keep it all in one movie/swf.
2. Is it possible to build on the above and have some sort of application lister that will allow you to switch between the two applications you have running. For example, a user may opem IE, the open Word. Word has now replaced IE and I want the user to have a simple click button to go back to an existing window rather than open another instance from the menu.

I'm creating a Flash Application that will be exported in exe format and it's not going to run in browser. I want to add an exit button inside stage but I don't know how to do that with ActionScript 3.
I remember that it was possible with fscommand in ActionScript 2 but it's not working in AS3.
I've searched everywhere but everyone is trying to close a popup or tab or window all in browser environment not a Flash app.

I am trying to create a multiple file upload flash application to be called from an External Interface, but it isn't working.
AS3:
var fileRef:FileReferenceList;
ExternalInterface.addCallback('selectFiles', showDialog);
function showDialog()
[Code].....
When I run the script and comment out the fileRef parts and uncomment the alert call, it shows the alert, also when I comment out the ExternalInterface call, leaving only the fileRef parts, it shows the file upload dialog.
When I run it as intended, I get the following error:

i'm trying to create a as3 flash application for a contest, so that participants can run for a prize. in order to participate, one must register though the application, by answering to 3 questions which must be saved to a txt file once the user clicks on a 'send' button. so i got 3 text input fields:
- name;
- social security number;
- answer to a simple question like "what's the name of the company that is running this contest?";
i know i have to use a combination of as3 and php in order to achieve this, but i've got a couple of difficulties:
- the txt file must be saved with a name identical to the participant's social security number;
- once the user hits the 'send' button, the php must check if the social security number is already stored (by checking the name of the txt files). if it finds an already existing file, then the new one must not be created.

I'm relatively new to flash, and just upgraded from Flash 6 to Flash 10. This is a HUGE jump for me, but strangely, I already feel more at home in Fl10 than Fl6, as it is more object oriented, and as a hardened programmer, I like.I'm attempting to create dynamically animated objects in a flash application. I can't think of a way to approach the issue without either a: converting each keyframe into a bitmap, or b: brute-force generating each frame every step of the way.Seeing as my application will have hundreds of the little bastards on the screen at any time, option b is out of the question, I presume.
So, essentially, I have a few questions about AS3:
1) Can a curve be modified after it has been drawn, or must it be cleared, then redrawn each frame?
2) Can a IK chain modify curves, or is it only per-symbol?
3) How fast can flash render complex objects in 3D? (I.E. would drawing hundreds of 400+ poly objects be too much?)
4) How fast can flash draw vector objects? (I.E. would drawing hundreds of creatures made up of dozens of curves be too cumbersome?)

I'm trying to create an application that has three movieclips that when rolled over show a movie clip over everything that the user reads then they drag one of three pictures over to the corresponding movieclip. I have the Movieclip alpha down until roll over but i had issues with layer order. If its on top i cant access the drag items beneath it and if its below i cant see it.I tried using swapChild but then it makes it crazy. The DragItem "sticks". It shows up on pages it shouldn't (i have it on one frame but it sticks to everything and i cant get rid of it). It works when im on the current frame so i must be close?
here is what my code is currently:
//This is the graphic that i want them to hover over to call the movie clip to show
msdsHover_mc.buttonMode=true;
msdsHover_mc.addEventListener( MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,

I was wondering how to make a .fla file to be opened and read by flash and have all the elements required using my own program.the motivation behind this is that i want to create a whole lot of swf files that are all pretty similar but won't ever just be slight modifcations to a base file... that and it requires a lot of data to place certain objects in places and set their keyframes to specific things etc.so i wanted to automate creating the .fla files. how to create a .fla file without flash?

Is it possible to create an application that can add effects similar to what shape collage does? I know, it was made using java. Could something like that be built using as3?My idea is that it uses alpha to know, where to start adding the shapes. In php its possible to read every pixel of an image, to check its color, so we can know if it is alpha or not, so i think there is something similar in as3. The images could be uploaded thru filerefence.

Trying to create a profanity filter for an AS2 application. Working with code found on this site on another post that doesn't seem to work. Anyone see the issue here?
test.onPress=function (){
badWords = ["this", "wont", "work"];
var lc_content = formContent.toLowerCase();
for (j=0; j<badWords.length; j++){
[Code].....
The form field is called "formContent". This returns both traces no matter the input so it must be a problem with the structure but I can't see it.

My idea is to be able to have a number of different objects on the side of the stage, kind of in a toolbar, then to be able to click (and thus select) one of them and place it another area in the room with another click (basically placing it, deselecting it and fixing it in place where I clicked).
I'd then like to be able to re-click it and reposition it by dragging, if I so wish.
