View 3 RepliesI am trying to make a little application to allow to record actions within a Flash and Silverlight application. In such manner that you can compile your interactive application in test-mode and then be able to click on elements which then passed the action to Selenium IDE which then adds this command to the testcase.I am curious if this even possible and how I can achieve this in Firefox?
View 1 RepliesIs there any way to use incremental compiling? I seem to have added alot of bitmap graphics to my library and I think I may have added to much over time and dind't notice how badly it was affecting my compile time. In my next project, i'll definately be doing bitmap graphics last. But is there a way for me to do incremental compiling in flash cs 5.5 authoring tool?[code]....
View 2 RepliesI have made an interactive application that runs on boothes that are 24h/24 running.I've tried to debbug it as far as possible from my computers, but when it runs on the boothes, it sometimes happen a bug.How could I log it? Is there a simple way to get what we have in the "input" window of the authoring tool into a log file?..... I've seen some tutos using the debug version of flash player, but in my case it's not working very well because i use some local and distant assets, and it gives me a lot of security warnings.
View 0 RepliesI'm talking about watching my nested animations playback within Flash, while scrubbing the timeline. I've read this isn't possible, but I've found it to be a major hindrance. Anyone know of a plugin or workaround?
View 2 Repliesi have found that:
1. There has a subtle difference between a static text field in flash authoring tool which has been set to use the device font when it's got focus(state that user can type character in) and lose focus;
2. There also has a subtle difference between when it is being rendered in flash player and in flash authoring tool.(Note that the key factor here is setting the text field to use device font.)
I have been working on an aplication that will be used only as an in-office tool for authoring content.
I am just wondering how many listeners are too many for something like this.
how can I add attributes to a Display Object, that I have created in the Authoring Tool, so I can acces it by:
myDisplayObjectInstance.myNewAttribute
Is a DisplayObejct a dynamic class, that can be extended from anywhere?
My goal is to make a replay function: I have to "record" 3 moviesclips movements for N seconds and play them back.Is there a library avaible to do it or a simple way ? Or do I need it from scratch?
View 1 Repliesdoing sound recording and playback in flash. I found this code from a tutorial and converted it to a flash document. From my traces, the record functions seem to be called. But when I try to play back the data, it tells me that the byteArray is empty. I've tested and I know that my microphone is working.
When I trace the size of the ByteArray, it returns 0;
So why does no data get recorded into the ByteArray?
output:
Recording
Stopped recording
Start Playing
Play Data - NO DATA

Can keylisteners be used to record keystrokes for later playback? If not, what can? The goal is to develop a way for individuals to make their own music via keypresses. For example: The R key is pressed to start the recording of the user's keyboard, with each keystroke assigned to play a different movieclip/audio, etc. The S key is then pressed to stop the recording. Lastly, the P key is pressed to play those movieclips/audio,etc. in their recorded sequence at the enjoyment of the individiual user.

when I heard that Amazon cloud services are now including FMS for a marginal increase in cost. So all I am looking to do is:
1) Record off a web cam and store the video using FMS
2) Play the video stream using FMS.
I would like to learn how record a user mouse movements during their session in the app.Well really I'm looking to record what the user draws, save that data, and call it back I've seen apps where it plays back what the user drew line by line. I've been looking though AS3 Bible and and AS3 Cookbook
View 1 RepliesI've been working on a Flash script that allows the user to speak and playback what the user is saying after certain but exact time, say 10 seconds.
View 1 RepliesWill there ever be the ability to add a 'Record' button to a player such as those used with Ustream, Justin.tv and other similar players? I run a live stream and would love for the viewers to have a 'Record' button so they may capture the video to their local hard drives for later playback.
View 1 RepliesI m struggling a lot to automate flash using selenium.Can any one please give me a sample flash application code (methods) and the selenium code to automate the same.
View 3 RepliesSeems like sometimes when Selenium should call a certain method, it instead calls another, as pointed out by the following log

I've tried both Selenium server 1.0.3 and the 2.0 alpha 7 versions, they both display this behaviour. FlashSelenium is involved so I'm not sure where along the way lies the bug. Furthermore it's hard to reproduce as it doesn't happen only for some methods, and doesn't always happen.
I've tried searching for issues similar to these but couldn't find any remotely similar... Anyone experienced the same behavior? And if so, is there a fix for it? Edit: I doubt FlashSelenium is at fault for this, as the log tells that the command arrives correctly at the server... But I can't seem to be able to follow the path of execution from the moment the Selenium server gets the command and passes over to the browser, to the moment where it gets the response.
I'm running a selenium script that tests an authenticated application.
The application uses a flash cookie to know if a user is authenticated to the site. Mid-script I need to delete the flash cookie.
I've tried to script the flash player settings page [URL] with no luck.
We use PHPUnit/Selenium if that helps.
When I take a screenshot using Selenium Firefox Webdriver (yes, Firefox has flash plugin) it doesn't show the flash object. It shows merely a white box instead. Is there something I must do / install?
I'm using this code:
from selenium import webdriver
def webshot(url, filename):
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get(url)
browser.save_screenshot(filename)
browser.quit()
What programming tests do company's give Flash developers?
I would like to level the playing field for developers and recruiters.
I've heard companies give debugging tests with broken documents you have to fix. Flash developers could include Flash IDE users and actionscript programmers.
Everyone would like to know what to expect and understand some of the blind spots we face. A rundown on "what to be prepared for" may be a right answer. Best anecdote or inside scoop on major companies is good too (don't have to use real names, it's up to you). Perhaps you have an opinion of what is fair or reasonable, I'd like to know.
Are there a good overview/comparison of Flash-authoring tools somewhere online?
By "Flash-authoring tools" I mean "Flash Builder vs. OpenLaszlo vs whatever", not Silverlight or JavaFX.
I like the Eclipse SDK for other languages like python/java etc for writing code. But the Flash CS4 environment is not as intuitive (specially the editor). Is there any alternative for writing actionscript?

View 2 RepliesIt might sound silly but how about having a shorcut/tool in flash IDE to view recently published swf file basicaly i m not updating content outside flash i.e. XML,images and I dont want to use windows explorer to run swf file and check the updated content
View 2 RepliesI'm creating a component that places symbols on the stage based on text input by the flash author. The component behaves as expected when the swf is published, but doesn't update in flash authoring when the data is changed in the component inspector. Live preview in the control tab is checked. The component functioned as expected until a couple of days ago, and I can't for the life of me see what I may have changed to cause it to stop functioning.

I have an actions layer, a sound layer and an image layer. I put one image from the library onto the image layer and all I see is the border. When I test the movie the image is visible. This just started suddenly. What is going on? Flash CS4.

View 1 RepliesI want to set a variable from a flash file so that I can access if from JSFL in a Command. I am using a element in JSFL's XMLUI: Here's the JSFL:
[Code]....
but I get undefined when I use trace fl.xmlui.get('secretword') in JSFL after opening the panel. In a way it kind of makes sense, if the xmlui variables live as long as the xmlui dialog is display, and they become undefined as soon as the user click either accept or cancel. Can someone confirm is this is the case ? Aworkaround would be saving the 'secretword' in a text file through JSFL from xmlui, although just passing values from a xmlui node to JSFL would be simpler. Is there a 'cleaner' way of doing this, other than writing a file to disk ?
I would like to be able the batch a bunch of JPGs and turn them into simple 1 or 2 frame vector swf files. I would like to be able to use the flash trace bitmap option as it does the best at what i'm trying to do. If i where using in photoshop i would use a script to do but i don't know how for flash.
So here is an outline of what i am ultimatly trying to do.
I have a swf called "page" page has two layers to it. layer one has some buttons and AS and Layer two is empty. I would like to batch a collection of 3000 images, all jpgs, and convert them into 100% vector and insert that vector in to layer two and save that swf as "original jpg file name.swf"
