Whats the parameter in Filerequest that gives the full path of the object selected in the browser?
I want to display the image selected in a loader.
Is there any way to get full path of a file which the user selects after clicking the browse button... ive read somewhere that using the FileReference in ActionScript we can pop up the browse dialog box by using the
FileReference.browse();
is there any way to extract the file path from this?Actually i need to use that path to Load the image later in the APPLICATION..
I need to get the full path of an object, and I don't know how to do that at all... I tried searching forums and google, but all found was something about nativePath, and all I get from this is "undefined". To sum the whole thing up, I need to pick up an object from the main stage on MouseEvent, and put it elsewhere. Then, by another click on the object (in the new location), I want it to go back to where it was in the first place. I cannot take the absolute path of the object, as I will have several objects and need to put this in a function..
Here is my function, for the moment :
Code:
function inventaire(evt:MouseEvent){
var chemin=evt.currentTarget.nativePath;
trace(chemin);
[Code]....
The targeted object is inside a movieclip, which is inside another movie clip...
The aim is to remove the object from the "popup" and have it return in it's place.
How to find out targetpath of a movieclip or a textfield.? i need to get full path of a movieclip like Object(root).moviclip1.movieclip2.textfield
View 4 RepliesI have managed to get it to open a file browser but all I can seem to get it to do is give me the NAME of the selected file *eg. selectedFile.name* I also need the path of the file as in C:examplefile.mp3.
The program I'm making plays an MP3 of your choice at a certain time, like an alarm clock. But I got tired of entering the file path of the MP3 EACH time so I wanted to have a browse feature.
I have a 100% width and height flash object in my site. Activating and exiting browser full screen mode with F11 only works as long the user didn't click the Flash movie. And I doubt many users know they have to click the address bar to enable F11 after using a (browser) full screen Flash movie.
View 1 RepliesI am working in Flash CS3 and Actionscript 3.0 My application resizes according to browser width and height. If the user first resizes the browser and then loads the flash application, I could not get the full browser width untill the user goes for full screen. Is there any way around, to get the full browser width before the user goes for full screen.

I've got a problem with a function i'm using to dynamically move movieclips around - its like this at the mo:
function wjump(number) {
_root.content.aboutus.webwizard.targetY = startPos[number];
}
where startPos is an array with numbers.
I want it to be like this:
function jump(target, number) {
target.targetY = startPos[number];
}
so any clip can be moved as long as it has a targetY variable. But it won't work for some reason. Is there some sort of special syntax i should use like [] brackets? I tried this around the target in function body but it did not work.
I was wondering if it possible to write up some AS that will take line paths that you have drawn and convert them into a Path object? For example say you drew a jagged line from left to write, would there be a way to have AS convert that into a Path object.
View 11 Replies[URL].. Anyone know the AS to make it automatically check the size of the browser for the listeners_notice when you resize the browser it works perfectly...but not when it first loads up.

I am creating a class to handle some audio in an app I am building. This class will need to accept the XML element path as a passed parameter and or a getter.
examples of some XML elements I would like to pass to the the audio handler class to access them.
Dialog.introScreen.text
or
Dialog.secondScreen.main.text
ect.
I pretty sure this is not a string data type and thus cannot be passed as a string (I could be wrong though), if not, what data type would I pass it as?

View 2 RepliesWhen using as3 and embed my swf via swf object JS, one of the parameters that being transferred to the embed JS function is "base=http://www.mydomain.com" which needed in order to load external widget into application.
Now, am also loading external assets like Styles.swf that placed locally on client side, and when I'm trying to load these assets I get error that they don't found in [URL]
For example: StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("Styles.swf");

StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("./Styles.swf");
StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("/Styles.swf");

I plan to run my App off a thumb drive, and I need to be able to find the full filepath of my Flash app at run time, so I can then point to an xml folder on the hard drive. I need it to work on Windows or Mac, so it needs to find the full path of the running file, then append the "xml" folder onto the end.

The swf file works correctly, but when it is published, the images to not load. Do I need to have the full path listed for the array?
this.pathToPics = "flashimages/";
How do I actually remove the full path as in C:program filesappfilename.jpg so that the only left is filename.jpg? Substr or Substring can be use in this case to remove after detecting the first occurrence or / by looping from the string end position.
View 1 Repliessay, user created a xml file by an AIR application and this file has been saved in certain location of his machine. If user enters second time in that application, the content of that XML file, should be displayed without prompting him. application should read file silently and display the content.In this scenario, i thought that when user will save that file, the entire file location will be saved in cookie. If user enters second time in that application, the file path will be available from cookie. user will not be prompted.[code]How can I get that full qualified path of saved file?
View 1 RepliesI am finding this task challenging in AS3.if I am missing something basic/simple or some builtin method which can do this. I am not well versed with RegExp.I have a DYNAMIC string representing full file path which looks exactly like "d: empabc.doc". I want to extract the filename part from complete string e.g. abc.doc.I am aware of techniques like using "fullPath.lastIndexOf("\")" or regular expressions. The problem is it doesn't seem to work if you have "" in your path. It works with "/". The path being dynamic can't be manipulated to replace "" with "/" or any other delimiter. My interpretation is that since "" is used to escape characters - ANY character appearing AFTER "" is ignored by actionscript. e.g.[code]
View 3 RepliesCurrently, I have a requirement need to get the full resource path in runtime, IF POSSIBLE.Here is an example: I have a action script and using a MovieClip resource. Now, I have a action script variable ctrlVar that is pointing to a child control , whose id is, for example, contorl1. And the real path I can find from fla file should be, for example, parent1.parent2.parent3.control1. And every parentX is a id ( not a type ).

View 1 RepliesI am in the process of writing a custom script for our internal SharePoint system that will allow for multiple file uploads on list items. In order for this to happen, I was wanting to use a flash file input (to select multiple files at the same time) and then pass an array of file paths (local to the user) into my ASP page to do the actual uploading.Does anyone know of a SWF multiple upload plugin that allows this? I've looked at Uploadify and cannot find what I need there.

Why doesn't that load a video? The skin partially appears, but the video does not. Hitting "Play" gives a server error, even though I'm testing locally. Does FLVPlayback need the full MACHINE PATH -- file:////blah blah blah -- to access that local file? You'd think not.
I am currently trying to create an app using flash AIR.I would like to find some more information on how to make an object snap to another ojbect then follow its path, eg. a person object is already on the stage, then drag an arrow to the object which snaps to it, then on play button it follows the arrow path. all in pure actionscript, no guide layers.
