The Slider (and all UIComponents) rely on direct access to the 'stage' - which is denied due to recent AIR 1.5 security restrictions. This restriction prevents any UIComponent from working when loaded into an AIR app as a local SWF. The parentSandboxBridge cannot return a reference to the stage.
View 1 RepliesI have a vertical tab-bar with 4 items with different sub tabs. All the four items use data from a single xml file, which is a big file. When the user clicks on a tab, while the data is being loaded this error is shown. TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. I want to disable all the tabs while the xml file is being loaded.

I have been trying for days to write my own custom NCManager class that allows us to connect to a Limelight stream. We have to issue a NetCOnnect.call() that has the command "FCSubscribe" and the stream name. I've written a 100% custom player(url...) (have to register!) but what I want to to resolve that player with the video-on-demand player(url...) into a single Flash project.I want to allow our Graphics guys (aka Flash developers) to be able to use the standard Adobe FLVPlayback components and skins and also be able to p lay back files, streaming content and Limelight content. To this end I thought that writing a custom NCManager class would be the way to go.
I have 99.9% succeeded: my class gets the connectToURL(),connects to Limelight, subscribes and all is well but I am really really stuck now on how to tell the FLVPlayback component that it .can start playing back now that the stream is connected.FLVPlayback and VideoPlayer parts appear to be AS2 and I cannot call the rtmpStatusInfo() function on the VideoPlayer part to tell it that it is good to go.I am so close I can taste it: If I create a NetStream object and play() it, I can hear the content to I know that if I could only get the FLVPlayback / VideoPlayer dynamic duo to playback then the job would be done.
I have attached the code, warts and all in the hope that either somebody has done this before or can tell me what I have misunderstood about the internal state-machine / FSM logistics that VideoPlayer et al implement.By reading the source code and my debugging statements I can see that I have maneuvered it towards the ultimate goal of playback but I don't know how to make that final step.
PS: I *know* that reconnect() is non-functional but if I uncomment the call all it does is go around the loop again; the real problem is I cannot tell the VideoPlayer that it can play (via rtmpStatusInfo) the data etc
PPS: The meta-data related stuff *only* gets called if I uncomment the NetStream code; this was to check that I had a valid playback stream, which I do at that point.

View 1 RepliesI am using several instances of the same custom component on the same SWF. The component is essentially just a textfield with special sizing requirements. I also have another "wrapper" component that deals with the info from the textfield components. I was initially planning on using the stage index to associate the data with the textfield component it came from. This became more complicated than I anticipated. When I trace from the wrapper i can't get the index of the textfield components. So I got it in the component code and sent it with the info to the wrapper via a custom event. The problem there is that i can't tell which component is which because they are indexed identically. I can also see the component shim as well as the textfield.I'm just really confused about how programmatic components work on the display list.
My main Question. Is there a better way to associate the info with the proper component? I guess that's my only question. Please point me in the right direction.
EDIT2: I created a dummy place-holder component that just draws a rectangle then at runtime replaces it with programmatically generated textfield component.
I'm creating a swf, that has a parent class and a child class. The parent class has a button, that dispatches a custom event and I want the child class to list for this event, but when I dispatch the event the child class does not hear the event has been dispatched.[code]The register EventListeners() function is in the child class.I know events can bubble up the display list but how can then go down the list?
View 1 Repliesi'm having a bit of a problem at the minute, i'm trying to get an external SWF to load into a shell i've created. The way i'd like it to work is that a preloader loads the shell, then once thats done i want the external swf home page to load in afterwards (which also has a preloader)
I know the swf's work all right as i've created buttons that when clicked load the external files, so no problem there.

How can I make sure all the components, even those that are not going to be visible at the beginning, load right away when I start my application?I have an application with a ViewStack whose visible child is set via a sidebar menu.

I have a swc file, loaded in my components panel and dragged it to my library. It is a file which allows flash as3 to evaluate strings as numbers as such. My problem is when I import the file

I've been sitting here for hours following the developers guide and numerous examples of how to do this yet have not found the correct process.

View 4 RepliesI am having a problem with preloaders showing up in my flex apps. I never had this problem when developing flash apps so I got the idea to use a flash app as a shell with the sole purpose of showing a preloader while the flex app loads.

View 1 RepliesI'm working on an existing modular project that was built in PureMVC. Instead of converting everything over to RobotLegs, I want to create a new module using RobotLegs and plug it into the pureMVC shell. Currently, when the module loads, I get the following flash error: ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable IMediatorMap is not defined.
Inititally, I thought it was because my module needed a pureMVC Mediator to call the pureMVC StartupCommand to get things "hooked up" and THEN create the RobotLegs' Context. However, that didn't work and I'm still getting the error.
There is a Shell and a Module. The Shell loads the Module. Module is never run without the Shell. Because there will be more modules, I decided to put common classes to Shell.
1. Compiled Shell with -link-report objShell_Extern.xml
2. Compiled Module with -load-externs obj<ShellProject>_Extern.xml Module size shrank from 90 KB to 2,05 KB.
3. Added 5 filters to Module:
import flash.filters.*;
tf.filters = [new GlowFilter(), new GradientGlowFilter(), new DropShadowFilter(), new BevelFilter(), new BlurFilter() ];
Module size grew to 2,15 KB.
4. Added 5 filters to Shell (same code as above), recompiled it, then recompiled Module.Module size still at 2,15 KB.
5. Tried getDefinitionByName
//import flash.filters.*; commented out
var GlowFilter:Class = Class(getDefinitionByName("GlowFilter"));
var GradientGlowFilter:Class = Class(getDefinitionByName("GradientGlowFilter"));
[code]....
Error #1065 GlowFilter not initialized, Module size grew to 2,19 KB. Deleting some, but not all filters is decreasing size, so it's not the getDefinitonByName that takes 0,14 KB (2,19 - 2,05 without filters).
1. Do I understand the idea of load externs, or does it work only with specific classes? Why it doesn't work with filters?
2. What did I screw up with getDefinitionByName and is it a new feature because of it's use like in link below?
