View 1 RepliesI just discovered impure.com and was very impressed by what can be achieved in terms of visualizing data using their workspace. Although the platform is free to use, but not open source yet. This causes a few problems because the API section works with .com sites for eg. for ebay, so I cannot visualize ebay listings for regional sites such as ebay.in because the link to ebay.com is hardcoded.I searched around, but didn't find other projects that offer a similar way to work with site APIs and other data sources with the kind of user interface and detail that impure.com does in a realtime way within a browser window.This brings me to the questions:
-What technologies would be involved in creating a similar kind of project
-What are the open source tools that can help develop a fullscreen UI to render the workspace. Are there any alternatives to flash for this, and how do they compare
The goal would be to use standard python data structures, python scripts to do some processing on these data structures, scripts to gather data from csv, json and API sources such as google yahoo, wikipedia and flickr, and scripts to render graphs, tag clouds, network visualizations etc. Then bring them all together into a visual interface that supports drag drop and simple type checking.How would the python backend integrate with the UI.

I have a function with a loop that uses an xml file to get jpg stored in folders...

can I store these in an array inside this loop so i can use them after the loop has finished?

View 1 RepliesIs there a way to write a UTF-16 string into a ByteArray in Flash/AS3? Basically I have a string (var test:String="allan"; for example) and I would like to write that into a ByteArray with UTF-16LE encoding. In this case it would be "61 00 6C 00 6C 00 61 00 6E 00".
I've tried using utf16le.writeMultiByte( clipText, "utf-16" ); but it just comes out with what appears to be UTF8 (or just straight ASCII given the test string).
The use case is to save a UTF-16LE file using FileReference.save(), which I understand I can do by passing it a ByteArray with the correct character encoding in it. Passing just a string saves as UTF-8. Hence the need to convert and store into a UTF-16LE representation in a ByteArray.
I am working on a software which takes .ppt as its input and produces .swf file as its output.
When I was dealing with fonts, I found there is slight difference between the representation of the text in .ppt and .swf though the font name and size are same in both.
The difference increses when I make the text bold or italic or both.
I want to know why such differerence exits?
And what should I do to make the.swf font representation same as that of .ppt?
Any way of doing this is as3? For example, if I have a var dog:String, how can I get "dog" out of that variable? Looking into reflection to do this, but there's got to be an easier way.
View 4 RepliesI have some objects that are very, very likely to be equal. I'm comparing them every second to check if they're the same as one stored in a data model on the client.Instead of having to check 5-6 data points to make sure they're equal, I would like to compare the binary to tell if they're not equal, so I can quickly overwrite the object in the collection if they do not have an identical binary representation.for example, I have the following objects:
ActionScript Code:
class tag{
var xCoord;
[code]....
So, instead of doing this sort of comparison for every member in the class
ActionScript Code:
if ( tagOne.xCoord != tagTwo.xCoord ){
swapTagsInCollection (tagOne, tagTwo);
}
I would like to do something like this.
ActionScript Code:
if ( tagOneBinary != tagTwoBinary ){
swapTagsInCollection (tagOne, tagTwo);
}
So, I want to create an effect such that each frame I :
1 ) create a bitmap representation of the stage.
2 ) reduce the bitmap's alpha to .75
3 ) remove any currently existing bitmap from stage
3 ) add new bitmap to stage.
If I'm correct in my thinking, this should effectively create the illusion that the stage is fading over time, as every time you call bitmapData.draw() the bitmap will be set at .75 alpha. This *should* mean that when I apply .75 alpha to the new bitmap that it should effectively result in a new image that is .75 * .75 alpha (.56), then on the next frame again it should be lower still (.42), and on... .31, .23, .17, and so on... But it seems that what's *actually* happening is that the new bitmap always *looks* like it's .75 alpha every frame.
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.*;
import flash.display.*;
// draw a black box...
this.graphics.beginFill(0x000000);
this.graphics.drawRect(0,0,100,100);
this.graphics.endFill();
[Code] .....
Additionally, I've tried using stage.invalidate and doing parts of this in an Event.RENDER handler, but it didn't work either...
