I was wondering if there was a way in AS3 top opening up a folder in windows explorer? Currently I'm using this code:
[Code]...
But the folder Resources opens up in my default web browser instead. I've tried googling extensively without much luck.
Is there any way to open a folder in Windows Explorer from Adobe AIR?
It looks like these APIs won't be added until AIR 2.0, but until then are there any workarounds that can be used to enable this feature?
If I have a file system path can I open a window in Explorer (on windows) or in Finder (on OS X) displaying the folder that the path leads to?

Supposing you're in Windows Explorer (in WinXP that is), and you drag a file and hold it over the folder you're going to drop it into. Now, when you're holding it over the folder, the folder highlights.How can I recreate this effect in Flash MX? I have a "tile" movieclip, and a "container" movieclip. The tile is meant to be dragged into the container. In the situation where the tile is being dragged and held over the container (ie, mouse button has not been released), the container is meant to change colour.

View 1 RepliesI'm just learning actionscript, and was wondering how to have the new window opened be a specific size. I've searched around, but only really found instructions for AS2.
Here's the code I am using:
stop();

function pharClick(myevent:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(pharURL);
}

I'm working in CS5, using AS2 on a Mac.I've built a presentation that requires the need to open pdf files in Acrobat Reader... as I have been building this on a Mac I simply used the geturl code which has been working a treat... today when I tested it on a PC it opened the file in a browser window!
I'm not really a coder and have to rely on finding bits online that I can tweak... after many hours I have fixed the pdf opening problem by using the fscommand method, but unfortunately when the pdf file is closed, my presentation (that was running fullscreen) has minimised itself to a window 100% to the original stage size!

I have a PHP mailer form on my site which needs to be published in action script2 to work, but I also have a script set up to open browser windows of a certain size & location which needs actionscript 1 to work? The PHP mailer form has a "Name" field, "Email" field & "Message" field, theses can all be reset with a button. The button clears off any text in the 3 boxes to wipe them clean. The script on the reset button is:

I'm running ant to compile a Flex application, and the build keeps failing when running it on a windows command line. Other people in my team can successfully run the very same build under mac and linux. This is the error shown in the command prompt:
[Code]...
All tokens are set in corresponding build.properties and filter .properties files (and, as I said before, it compiles perfectly under mac and linux). The windows version is 7 Ultimate, FLEX_HOME is set as an environment variable to the Flex SDK 3.5 (the 3.5.0.12683 build that comes with Adobe Flash Builder Burrito). ${compiler.fork} is set to false, to avoid an issue with the SDK and the source files being in different logic drives.
I'm using Flex in Flash Player 10 on Windows, using FileReference to load a file into memory, as below.My issue is that when a file is locked by Windows, my FileReference is not giving me any feedback that the file is inaccessible--it simply never dispatches any events after my calling load().Does anyone have insight into how to tell that Flash Player is unable to open the file?
