How to disable output panel while running app in background
for debugging I use trace commands to keep track of what happens, but this is super annoying when trying to run the application in the background as the output window keeps popping up thus obscuring everything else on the screen. Is there a way to prevent the output from popping up like that? Some setting in the publish menu or other?

View 3 RepliesDoes anyone knows of a way to get the output panel in flash or the console panel in flex builder or flash builder, to format the "traces" with html or any thing else? for example:
trace( <b>brett</b> ); and to get that to appear in bold in the console window or the output window?
I've never had this happen before and it's stumped me...yesterday the output panel stopped outputting traces ie. 'trace("hello"); is not working! The Omit Traces in teh Publish Settings is not ticked...I'm wondering whether i have accidentally pushed a short cut key which stops this functioning?

I have a play and mute/unmute MC in a timeline instanced as "btn_playMute." The movie clip contains two frames. Each frame contains a button and some AS3. Here's the goal: When the flash loads, a video starts playing with the volume turned all the way down. This video continues, and loops when it gets to the end, ensuring that the volume is all the way down. I'm doing this as such:
HTML Code:
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
videoPlayer.volume = 0;
videoPlayer.source = "dieSort.f4v";
videoPlayer.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE,rewindAndMute);
function rewindAndMute(videoEventObject:VideoEvent):void {
[Code] .....
The problem is that when I click the button the first time, which restarts the video with the volume up, I get the following error in the Output panel:
HTML Code:
Play Button Clicked
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at Semigen_fla::btn_playMute_1/frame2()[Semigen_fla.btn_playMute_1::frame2:3]
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()
at Semigen_fla::btn_playMute_1/playHandler()[Semigen_fla.btn_playMute_1::frame1:9]
Any reason why my control MC is not changing states properly from "rewind and unmute" to "mute"?
I'm just beginning to learn AS3 and I've been reading Colin Moock's Essential ActionScript 3.0.(I've been doing some exercises on how to randomly choose elements from arrays). All of the book's example codes that I've tried so far (in FLASH CS5) seem to work pretty well. But I'm having a bit of problem with the example code below which is found in chapter 11 (Arrays):
var row1:Array = [6, 2.99]; // Quantity 6, Price 2.99
var row2:Array = [4, 9.99]; // Quantity 4, Price 9.99
var row3:Array = [1, 59.99]; // Quantity 1, Price 59.99[code]....
When I test the movie the output panel displays NaN instead of 117.89.
I have a loop that is supposed to run a set of functions and output movieclips on a main movieclip. Each of these smaller movieclip is supposed to be a tile. The code below is supposed to make 50 movieClips each one from a different reference on the tileSheet. However it outputs 50 of the exact same movieclips.
Code:
var tDMax:int = 50;
//Start Get tiles
function getTiles():void{
tList.graphics.beginFill(0x000000);
tList.graphics.drawRect(0, 0,tWidth * 5, tHeight * 10);
[Code].....
Strange enough whatever I made tDMax which is supposed to be the limit for the loop, that's what all the movieclips become. For example if I put it at 25, then all the movieClips become tiles from the bitmap sheet reference # 25. That leads me to think that it's not passing the variable to the functions correctly, and it's only doing it once the loop finishes. But when I trace things like rowT and colT the references to the bitmap are correctly. And when I trade tn within the other functions that's always correct also..
I've set up FlexUnit in my app, I want to debug a test using trace, but im not sure how to get flexunit to traceto the flashlog file. Here's part of my test task in ant, I thought the 'localtrusted' property would help, but it doesnt seem to. In my logs I get the testcases only, none of my traces which are inside my tests.

someone could offer me some direction with the execution of this for loop.here is the basic premise...
Code:
function DisableTMBS (){
for(i=1; i<20; i++){
var TMBSOff="_root.mc_tmbsPanel.mc_TMBS.mc_tmb"+i[code]....
i need to disable a string of thumbnails which are organized in a scorllable panel... but i need them to remain visible.When i trace "TMBSOff", i get appropriate values... _root.mc_tmbsPanel. mc_TMBS.mc_tmb1... and so on and so on... but turning those movie clips off through that variable does not work.
I'm trying to make it so a Panel or TitleWindow's background is transparent. Setting the alpha on the component is easy but that makes the Panel and everything added to it transparent, whereas I'd just like the background to be transparent.

I currently have 6 scenes in my current movie. It's going to be an online portfolio and each page is a section of the portfolio. However, I have an animated background (400 frames long) that I want to be played throughout the entire site. Of course, when I try and do this the animation resets every time the scene changes. The best I could do so far is to have it running on every page this way but like i said, it resets every time the scene changes. Is it possible to set this background to run smoothly through the portfolio without resetting?

View 1 RepliesI have a full screen webpage with an elastic bg that is created mostly through AS, XML, and external .swf's. The main menu links to pages (other external .swf's with dynamically loaded content) that look sort of like popups over the graphic content of the main background (img2). There are two problems, 1) there are other buttons on the main page that the user can click when viewing a page and 2) the popups come down directly on the content and make the whole site look rather flat.
I am trying to create a background for each of the pages that has the same elastic qualities as the main page (so that no matter what it will cover the user's entire screen) and will disable all of the buttons beneath it. I tried adding a rectangle beneath the pages other layers, however any script I write for that mc (such as the onResize _mc.width and _mc.height or ._x and ._y) is completely ignored in the main timeline and the rectangle messes with the popup page position -- img3. Also the buttons beneath the rectangle are still active.
