I'm working on a banner with a scroller and was wondering if there is an AS3 way of accomplishing onReleaseOutside in AS3. I need this to work if the scroll scrubber is released outside of the stage.
[Code]...
Is there an easy way to use two event handlers together without repeating a function like this:
Code:
movieclip.onRelease = function() {
_root.gotoAndStop(2);
[code].....
Firstly I feel this question is not a duplicate for : Easiest implementation of onReleaseOutside in AS3?
Now, the problem , I want to do some action when the mouse_down happened inside the stage, but the mouseup happened outside it. e.g check google finance charts, try dragging the change range divider and then make the drag such that your mouse exists the browser screen, and then do a mouse_up outside the browser, this will trigger some action inside the stage , i.e make the range stick to the position it was, when the mouse exited the window.)
I have "sq_mc" and "status_txt" on Stage.
I am using equivalent of onReleaseOutside which is: this.stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler);
It works fine. but when I open this SWF in another SWF it doesn't work.. !!
when I press mouse on sq_mc and release outside, counter stops.
but I want to stop the counter when I press mouse on sq_mc and release outside where my SWF which contains sq_mc is in another SWF in browser.
in simple ways... if path of SWF is "browser >> SWF" it works.
but if path is "browser >> SWF1 >> SWF2 >> SWF3" it wont works. in this SWF1 is preloader, SWF2 is SWF loaded in preloader, SWF3 is SWF which contains sq_mc)
Code below:
Code:
var excelClickTimer:Timer;
var i:int;
this.stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler); //counter

I am building a timeline with a scrubber. The handle on the scrubber is a movie clip, and it was all working fine. But I didn't like that when you clicked on it, the hand icon would be glued to the left hand side of the handle. So I changed to registration of the handle file so that it would be in the middle. Now my 'onReleaseOutside' command quit working. If I set the registration back, the release command works again.
Basically, if I drag the handle all the way to a side and have the mouse continue past the flash file and release it, it wont register it has been released until I move the mouse back over the flash, which also moves the scrubber handle to _x location of the mouse for where ever it entered the swf. Is there something obvious I am missing? Or do I have to deal with an un-centered handle?
a client asked me to incorporate a flash version check in a flash application i made for him.it should read something like: "you have flash player 10.x.x.x.x.x.x.x the current version is 10.1.x.x.x.x.x.x"the user veriosn is easy to get with Capabilities.versionbut is there an url on adobe's site to get the string of the current downloadable version from?

View 1 RepliesIt's relatively easy to find a solution to the problem of the eluding "onReleaseOutside" event in Actionscript 3.0. What is more difficult, is catching the original target object in the last event handler of a classic drag/drop event. A common implementation, provided by our beloved senoculor, is this:
[Code]....
I'd like to say this in the timeframe.
on (Press, ReleaseOutside) {}
Can I put it like this? The check syntax doesn't object, but does it work?
"my_button.onPress, onReleaseOutside = function()"

View 1 RepliesI'm looking for a standalone app that will let someone know what version a FLA is.
Specifically if it's CS5 or CS4.
Basically we upload FLA's to another system in which they MUST be CS4.. if a CS5 version is uploaded then the system crashes.
Just want to have a "checker" app that people without access to Flash could use to double check it is CS4 before upload.
Found "Flaver" : [URL] But it's PC and also not been updated since 2007 so I dont think it supports CS4/5.
We are also all on Mac so a OSX version is needed.
I remember i stopped using flash when it was like flash 4.0 or something... at that time they had swift 3d and i bought colin moock's actionscript 3.0 or something. what is the newest version of flash now, and does it still use actionscript? what about swift 3d?
View 1 RepliesI fell in love with Macromedia Flash 5 a decade ago but i never got to grips with Actionscript. For the last ten years i have been using Flash 5 for drawing and animating really simple movies. It's time to change!Unfortunately the last time i considered upgrading (Flash MX) the new interface was simply too complicated for me and the walk-thru tutorials that came with Flash 5 (which were brilliant) were no longer there.Can you please recommend a recent version of Adobe Flash that will support the learning of a complete newbie to a stage of basic Actionscipt competence?

We generate a LOT of swfs where I work. We've got a group of people managing putting the swfs into our asset management system. These people do NOT have flash or anything adobe. However, they need to be able to determine the AS setting on the swfs. Is there a tool (preferably cheap or even free) that can be used to determine the Actionscript level of a swf?

Is the flash version installed on, say IE, on a single computer the same version on other browsers installed on that same computer ?
