ActionScript 3.0 :: When SWF File Loops Elements Disappearing And/or Animations Not Rendering Properly?
Dec 22, 2009
I've created a short animation which contains various text and graphic elements. The first frame contains a label called "start" and on the last frame I've placed the code:
stop();gotoAndPlay("start");
When previewed the SWF loops and plays perfectly, however when I email the file on or when it's embedded into an HTML file or previewed on another machine, the SWF plays the first loop fine but then progressively gets worse with each loop - elements disappearing and/or animations not rendering properly.I've also tried this with a "published" version and it too does not playback correctl(except when I'm viewing in Flash, as opposed to Flash Player).

Eversince I've worked with AS3, Flash always seems to have some odd way in rendering pixel-precise vectors. For instance, Friday I tried to draw a roundRect with a line around it. However, when zoomed at 100% it looks crappy and not how it's meant to look:So, when zoomed in in Photoshop you'll see more clearly that it's off:But whenever I zoom in with Flash itself, it looks OK:The quality is set to High, so that can't be it. Is there any flag in AS3 to make Flash render vectors more accurate?

I'm working on a small validation script, to check elements of a data object for duplicates... it goes a little something like this (hit it!):
[Code]....
and continued my loop, it would work, but instead, it would catch the first duplicate, but miss the rest after that. Basically what I'd like to do is simple: If this record[i] is equal to record[i+1], skip record[i+1] and go through it again... I just can't seem to figure it out

I've spend a lot of hours researching this problem, and nothing has worked so far. I have a simple text file that I'm loading into a dynamic text box. I want to get one line spacing between the lines, not two like a carriage return seems to give me. So I understand the way to do this is with Html rendering. So I click the html render button for my text box, add a '<br />' to my text file, but still no good - it just displays the '<br />'
[Code]..

Building a flash file for local playback and it contains some animations that I insert as .FLVs. It is set to play full-screen, but when it does, the video gets all jaggy. Is there a smoothing function for video like there is for jpegs? Or any suggestions for another way to approach this?

I am trying to import an xml file with multiple sections of HTML. It looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<htmlcontent>
<application>
<title>Site Deployment</title>
[Code].....
Whenever flash sees an html tag such as <p> or <img src=""> it stops reading the xml file at that point. I currently have it working with each application in its own xml file, but that is messy and I would rather it all be in one place.

I'm trying to generate a random background and css file using an xml document. My xml structure is as such:
PHP Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<backgrounds>
<pic>
[Code]....
The problem is, I don't want to use an array like I have it right now, because then updating it is a pain. What I want to do is retrieve the xml file, count the *pic* element and take that number and put it into a variable to multiply it by *random*. I then want to display the background file in an empty mc, as well as retrieve the *name* and *location* elements and display them in a text box. D**n this sounds complicated now.

If it's possible for Flash to read an XML file and look for element names rather than using myXML.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild; etc? So say I have the following:
Code:
<music><song>Song 1</song>
</music><food>
<curry>Tikka</curry>
</food>
Rather than using "firstChild.nextSibling" etc to navigate itself to the Food element, is there a way to just have something like "find the food element in the XML and return its childNodes"? It makes more sense to me this way because then it doesn't matter how you structure your XML file. And if you change the XML structure later on.. you don't then have to update the Flash as well. My reason for this is i'm using Expression Engine CMS and want to pull the data from that into Flash.

I'm currently trying to make an application and am rather new with AS3. What I'm trying to do is hide a few elements (buttons, movieclips, etc) when the flash file/swf file loads, or at least set their visible = false untill another button is clicked to turn it visible = true.

it is my first time reading in XML files into my Flash project. I have it working to an extent, as it will read in the file correctly and all that, and I though that I was finally ready to publish it. I copied all of the concerned files over to my server, and it will work perfectly fine when I view the flash from the uploaded link directly (right on my server in the folder I created it in).
My problem arises when I try to publish my project on another website, by just embedding the .swf directly. The project works perfectly until I click the tab that will read in the XML file, at that point it will just hang and not load it in properly. Since it was my first time using XML, I played around with a template a bit to learn it. Anyway, here is what I put (Well, example of what I put)
Code:
flashmo_page1.load_xml("http://mywebsite123456.com/directory/flash/flashmo_197_page_1.xml");
I though that linking directly to my file on my website would make it work, but it still hangs.

Basically, I have alot of text that needs to contain underlines and all that good formatting stuff that flash text can't do. So I created a dynamic scrolling text box, loaded in an external txt document containing all the right HTML tags for flash. But for some reason the flash cuts off the text. It won't show all the text I have. I noticed that it seems to be cutting it off in SOME (not all) areas where I have a hyperlink.

I'm having with txt files referenced as HTML in Flash.
[URL]
One of the problems is having an image as a link. For instance, I have a photo and try to link a website to it:
quote:
<a href="
http://cdbaby.com/cd/motuniverse"
target="_blank"><img src="images/cdbaby.gif" width="100"
height="100"></a>
[Code]....
. I heard that there's a 128 character limit for links in Flash. Is there any way around this?
What about forms? PayPal has the option of doing a form for a shopping cart. Flash won't even begin to recognize it when I just drop the form code in there.

My flex (flash builder 4) project references (embeds) a flex library project (ReusableFx). I have it working fine when it builds and runs, but I am struggling with a Design mode error "Design mode: Error during component layout...". In the flex library project there is a 'default.css' file which references a png file. Specifically like this:

It works when I build and run, I see the icon, but the problem is that design mode must work different in flash builder and breaks with this line. I tried a few things with no difference:

I am building a pretty basic app which pulls data from an XML file and displays it on my site. It's basically for displaying reviews of other sites so each record has a title, image, description, rating and URL field.I have got as far as being able to display one record at a time, however I would like to dynamically add new placeholders depending on how many reviews there are for a given category.In Flex you can do this with I think it is called the repeater component. However I am not sure the best way to achieve this in flash? So to summarize I guess I am looking for a way to dynamically add new elements to the stage for each record in my external XML file for a given category.

I've used the GUI to create a rectangle that I turned into a button symbol (SimpleButton). I then edited the button so that it had 4 different button states and a text layer on top. I then created a class definition file for this object so that I could dynamically change the label text (the text layer) when adding instances of this button to the stage.
I was able to create and link a class file (DynamicButton.as) just fine, but when I try to access the text field that I created on the button, I get the error:
"Access of possibly undefined property btnLabel through a reference with static type com.examples:DynamicButton."
when i couldn't get that to work, I decided I'd try adding the TextField directly within the class definition file, using the following code:
package com.examples
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
[Code].....
The problem is that I can't seem to add the TextField to the SimpleButton, as it's not a display object. So, I tried adding it to the parent of the simple button (and I figured, I'd just place it exactly above the button). But then I get a "null object reference." error.
is there a way to access GUI-created elements from w/i a class definition file? How would I add the TextField to the button using only AS3 inside of a my class definition file?

how you properly organize dynamically loaded thumbnails from an xml file, into a grid.What I'd like is for the number of columns and rows to be set in the xml file also, and for the flash file to auotmatically fill out the rows / columns based on how many thumbs are in the xml file.
I've found examples of this type of thing in both as3 and as2, but I can't seem to get my as2 version working properly... how to create a thumbnail grid in as2...I don't really want the thumbs to link to a bigger version fo the image...
