ActionScript 3.0 :: Waiting Until User Responds To Microphone Usage Dialog?
Jun 23, 2010
what is probably a basic question...I have a Flash app that needs access to the microphone. The code is:var mic:Microphone = Microphone.getMicrophone();That initiates a dialog box where the user allows or denies use of the mic. What I was to do is have my code pause at that point, and not proceed until after the user has made their choice (allow or deny). I assume there's gotta be an easy way to do this, but I haven't discovered it.
I am developing an application running in Flash Player. The applicatiosn requestes access to the camera and/or microphone available on user computer.Is there a way in the application I prevent users from seeing this question? i.e. without having user to change his/her Adobe Flash Player setting?
I need to get user inputs from the user in a popup dialog box. And get the data on the main page.For example a login dialog box. When the user enters the User/Passwd , it should be available on the main page.
How can I open a browse dialog for user to select a file ;after selecting file, the address to be passed into a variable for later use?I mean I want btn1 to open a browse dialog and var1 to get the address of the selected file on my local drive.
How can save data into a XML file without user prompt dialog in Action Script 3?
I'm writing an simple application (with adobe flash) that runs on client PC and save user state data in XML file in same directory of app. When i use FileReference it shows a user dialog for saving file. Is there any class to save just XML data directly into XML file?
I think writing just XML (text plane) data couldn't make any security problems?
I'm setting up an application where I need to record users' voice every so often during the course of the users' interaction with the application. Recording is fine, and the quality is fine, but now my issue is understandng how Flash handles the microphone when it gets attached to a stream for publishing.Basically, the problem is that when I "publish" my stream, the voice gets cut off (clipped) at the beginning. So, I initially thought this may have to do with buffer settings on the FMS server side, but it wasn't. Then I investigated client side stuff. For some reason, my internal mic .activityLevel property is -1 even though I have called Microphone.getMicrophone(). According to Flash's documentation, this shouldn't be the case:
activityLevel propertyactivityLevel:Number [read-only]Language Version : ActionScript 3.0Player Version : Flash Player 9The amount of sound the microphone is detecting. Values range from 0 (no sound is detected) to 100 (very loud sound is detected). The value of this property can help you determine a good value to pass to the Microphone.setSilenceLevel() method.If the microphone is available but is not yet being used because Microphone.getMicrophone() has not been called, this property is set to -1.I am using a timer to investigate the microphone .activityLevel property every 50 milliseconds:
I want to open a file dialog via FileReference.browse() but I get #2176 error which means that this action can only be invoked upon some user interaction. I'm aware of security considerations but in my scenario I have a thin flash movie which merely displays an image and the whole UI is in javascript (I heavily use javascript <-> actionscript communication).
So the question is - do you think it would be possible to invoke FileReference.browse() upon the user interaction coming from javascript?
I wrote an application in flash AS3, and when I trace from flash the total memory usage of the total application is only about 9MB, But at the same time Task Manager Shows the memory usage as 110MB. Around 100MB difference.Flash Trace Method System.totalMemory difference of the Trace from the Beginning of the application to end of the application.
public function init():void { var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite(); mySprite.graphics.beginFill(0x336699); mySprite.graphics.drawRect(100,100,150,50); addChild(mySprite
[Code]...
But how would I and a image to the sprite so the TouchEvent responds to touching the image?
I am writing a little app, and have buttons and sliders on one frame 1 of the stage, and then a help screen on frame 2 of the stage. I have some event listeners attached to the objects of the first frame. When I move to the second frame, and then go back to the first frame, all the event listeners have gone out of scope, and no longer work. (at least that is what I think is happening). I think the best way would be to add something like add Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE listeners to each object, and have the listener function add the event listeners that I want for each item.
So I would have: public function Document(){ super(); iSlider.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, added); iSlider.removeEventListener(Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE, removed); myButton.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, buttonAdded); myButton.addEventListener(Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE, buttonRemoved); } In each of the listeners, I would add / remove the listeners that actually respond to the button / slider.
I've got a Tree component on the stage that allows users to select a node (which sets the enabled to false and sets the focus off the tree) and then they can enter data. The problem is that if they click on the tree (still disabled) they can now use the keys (arrow keys & first character of the line keys) to navigate within the tree component
Want to make an Image gallery that responds to a swipe gesture. Found some tutorials but they were a bit vague. Someone an idea where I can find some good ones? How to test this on a windows pc? I do not have a certificate (I know that there are some illegal cert. on the internet), just want it to test it on a simulator?
I am looking to add some life to this graphic in flash: My goal is to have the "Hey Jude" element drop into frame and be suspended by the two strings that are attached to it. i.e. similar in fashion like a swingset
I have looked all over the web but have yet to find any leads/tutorials on the matter.I would also like this element to be physics based so that the motion is random and when the element is moused over it responds to the action.
i'd like to create a single movieclip that responds to the same input (mouse click) in two different ways: if playhead is on frame labeled "one" go to frame labeled "two", otherwise if playhead is on frame labeled "two" go to frame labeled "one". i've tried if/else and switch statements with no success - what's a good approach to doing this?
I've just finished a simple Flash 5 game in ActionScript. Everything about it works fine except when I try and turn it into a web page. After I create the page, the graphic controlled by the player no longer responds to the keyboard. Can anyone explain why this is and how I can fix it?
I am trying to read an XML file from a class, (I'm fairly new to OOP, I got the concept, how to use them and all), I want to do everything without having to break down my code to segments in a gazillion frames, so I work from the documentclass. I need to
1) load XML
2) wait for it to be loaded
3) Start working with the XMLdata
So I made a class 'queryXML' where I do all the loading, and in my Main class I setup the instance of queryXML and tell it what file to load. Now everthing runs fine, BUT i don't know how to wait in my Main-class until loading is done. My queryXML class holds a status variable and I have a method to check it.
The problem I have is that the amount of elements in my XML is variable, and I need to initially place objects on the stage depending on the data in the XML file. Both how many objects to place and their positions are in the XML file. I can't get it to wait until it's looked at the XML file before continuing through my code, obviously erroring when it doesn't know how many there are. It gets through all my code before finally coming back to run the function to grab the XML. I have tried putting setting a variable within the function, and a while loop outside the function waiting to that variable to be set, but it never happens if I do it this way.
Code: var items:Array = new Array(); var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleXMLLoaded); loader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]")); function handleXMLLoaded(e:Event):void { [Code] .....
I am trying to make a 3-dot waiting animation using action script.
I want it to go until three dots "..." and than start over again until I manually stop it later in my program. I tried many stuff including arrays and surrendered.
Whats the best way of waiting until the tween is complete before attaching this movie. Basically I want the attached movie to appear once info._x == 20.
I have an animation stored in a movieclip.I have 5 instances off this mc stored off the stage. Whenever the user enters a wrong response, one of the mc's play a walk animation and a person 'walks' onto the screen. After moving 80 pixels, an if function in the onEnterFrame deletes the onEnterFrame.However, if the user enters more then 5 wrong answers, the persons start a new animation. The problem is that if the user gets a question wrong before the person has finished moving - the person stops and does the new animation.
Thus I was hoping to use setInterval after a check to see if anything is moving. Yet it doesn't see to work. My traces show no delay between the interval trace and the trace after the interval.Here is a section of my code; basically when k = 6, the fifth person has been called previously and the moving variable is a boolean set to true. But when run, there is no 20 second delay, it just says 'slow' then 'delay' and then kicks into the final animation.
Code: if (k > 5){ trace(person5.moving);[code]....
I'm using a custom class to lay out a background consisting of square tiles picked at random. These are provided to the class as an array of library symbols, and they are placed on stage with the attachMovie method.- These tiles are different animations that all end up in a solid colored square. When all the tiles have finished animating, the result will be a large rectangular shape that serves as a unified background for content like text and graphics, so I't simply a sort of fancy build animation for the background.
- Naturally, I don't want to be displaying content before the animation has finished, so I need to do that based on some kind of event being dispatched. The problem is that these animations are timeline-based and I want my class to know when all background clips have reached their final frame.The question: How should I do this? Extending MovieClip for each of the animations seems a bit tedious since that would require one class per background tile MovieClip, and I don't want to be constantly checking the currentFrame of all the clips either.
Code: public function TiledBackground(target:MovieClip, bgSymbols:Array,
I am creating a site where it is loading dynamic images and text within the SWF. Currently for images I am using the loadMovie command. This works typically when I do not have images of significant size, however I am having trouble getting the movie to check up if a larger image needs to be loaded. Here is my current code below, it does not seem to be checking to see if the clip is loaded and simply ignores it if the timeline reaches the actionscript before the image is loaded. _root.generalVars.homeImg is a variable that I define outside of flash
I have an arbitrary number of images I want to load. I want to load them, wait until I get an Event.INIT for each, and only then proceed with the rest of the program. I know I can do that by having an Event.INIT listener update and check some count variable, but is that the standard approach? Is there a more elegant or AS-specific way?
i have an animation with a series of colored squares appearing and disappearing from the stage [URL]..except that the squares appear and disappear). Each of the squares fade in and out using Actionscript, with a custom method that animates its alpha property over time. I want to pick randomly every few seconds a square, to make it disappear and put a new one in its place, and my code is more or less like this:
I'm looking to pause on frame 1 of a movieclip for a random amount of time before playing frame 2 and the rest of the movie. This will thus repeat and the movie will play at random intervals.how to set this up in AS3 format. how do i convert this simple line of AS2 code into a working piece of AS3 code?
I am sure I will receive the beginner question of the year with this one: Just starting w/ Flash 8. Using AS2 to simply make a graphic (and its clickable area) proceed to next frame when clicked. When input : button.onRelease = function() { gotoAndStop(2) the movie proceeds to Frame 2 without a pause for the click event. I have tried a stop(); prior to the above function, but no action after click. Basically trying to understand why frame 1 with the event handler AS does not pause to accept the mouse click? I apologize for such a basic question, but my eyeballs are bleeding from trying to figure this out.
