View 4 RepliesI am interested in making a RIA in Flex that will communicate with my server. The application will be downloading and uploading very often. It will need to be able to download hundreds of images over the course of its runtime. However, I have read that Flash does not support threading. Would this be a major problem if I want the UI to run smoothly while the application downloads and uploads in the background?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make some "social share" buttons at my site, but the urls I generate just don't get decoded by this services.One example, for twitter:
private function twitter(e:Event):void {
var message:String = "Message with special chars âõáà";
var url:String = "http://www.twitter.com/home?status=";
var link:URLRequest = new URLRequest( url + escape(message) );
}
But when twitter opens up, the message is:
Message with special chars%E2%F5%E1%E0
Something similar is happening with Facebook and Orkut (but these two hide the special chars).
URL...I've set menu items with an elastic Y position prototype.What I need to do now is make the menu tabs collapse with the elastic force. So if i was to click the top tab, the bottom 4 would fall. If i was to click the 2nd tab, the bottom 3 would fall and the top 2 would go up.
View 1 RepliesI plan to use Social Gold for payment in my application. SG site has instructions for using the service and sale of virtual currency [URL]- it using signatures and server requests.However, on the same site is an example of the [URL]In this example, the game absolutely does not use a server method, and sends the secret parameters not safe. I understand that this is done for testing.
Each user my app gets a unique id when registering. Each time the application start accesses the database and gets information about the user: settings, value of virtual currency, etc. After performing certain actions (click on the button, buying patterns) is debit the currency. If the user wants to purchase with the help of Social gold virtual currency, then I need to get from SG service callback that payment by the user with id = '12345' was successful. Yes, I can set in control panel Postback URL, but how it can change the data in my flash application?

View 1 RepliesI searched a lot about using UDP in network games and find out that flash does not support UDP connection in browsers and I wonder, are there any solution to this? to make real time game in flash. I checked sirius framework and made a little project on it, but it is not fast enough
View 1 RepliesI'm wondering if it's possible to have a server-client networking, based on a UDP or other fast protocol, suitable for fast paced multiplayer game?Server side code doesn't have to be written in actionscript, but it would be good that I don't go out of flash borders. The most important is that client must not install any plugins or other stuff, except flash player itself and client code must work in a browser, so no desktop apps like adobe AIR.
View 1 RepliesI can't really understand how can Adobe let the developers release such a messy embedded Flash editor. Please, fix the line copying, it drives me mad. In every normal editor, when u get to the start of the line and press shift+downarrow, the whole line is selected. Flash selects the tabs in the next line also. So pasting is a horrible nightmare.

View 5 RepliesIs it possible to configure Flash Builder 4 to indent using spaces instead of tabs?
I've enabled Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors > Insert spaces for tabs but it still inserts tabs. I've tried editing files with no tabs but it still inserts tabs.
What's strange is that Insert spaces for tabs works in Eclipse but not Flash Builder, which is built on Eclipse. Perhaps there's a bug in Adobe's portion of Flash Builder.
I'm running Flash Builder 4.0.0.272416 on Mac OS X 10.6.
I am new to Flex 3.4. I want to change style of few tabs (highlight them) on click of a button. I came from a javascript background and not able interpret in Flex's way.
View 1 RepliesI have a simple HTML page that contains two tabs that show/hide content in the same space.The first tab contains an SWF file that is embedded using SWFObject.js.When switching between tabs, I would like the SWF file to pause or stop. This works fine on all browsers except IE7+, which is a known problem.What could be possible resolutions?A simple solution would be to remove the SWF file from the DOM and re-insert it every time the first tab is selected and loadedThe SWF file is generated using Adobe Captivate 5. Do I need to expose a pause/stop method using ExternalInterface API that Javascript/jQuery can call? Or, is there a standard method for pause/stop that is exposed for all SWF files that I can simply call?
View 2 Repliesim creating a presentation that has a bunch of links to websites and pdf files. right now the presentation opens fullscreen when first opened but if the user clicks one of the pdf or web links the clip minimizes and if the user tries to maximize the flash window the menu bar at the top is visible and cuts off some of the content.
is it possible to detect when the user tabs away from the presentation so the clip will pause automatically and i can tell the user to click to continue? i know this code will work fscommand ("fullscreen", "true"); that will make the presentation fullscreen again but i need the movie to pause if the user clicks a link. i have seen this before in games where the game will pause if i tab to another program and i have to click to continue.
I have found solution for my previous problem:
onClipEvent (load) {
_root.hitz = 0;
this._alpha = 0;
[Code]....
but now I have a new one! After fifth click browser keeps opening hundreds of new tabs! I think it's because flash keeps playing movie. There must be some kind of loop and every loop flash opens new tab. I tried to add stop(); in few different places but still no result.
The current architecture of the game is:PHP + MySql backend,Flash and ActionScript 3 frontend.Major criteria for engine/framework selection are:Support for isometric view. Resuability : The current game development should easy the work for building similar social game of diffrent story type in future.
Ease of development as3isolib - for isometric rendering, but restricted only to the rendering part. PushButton Engine - open source engine, component based Open-space engine - But That works with Smart Fox Server only I guess.
I'm noticing some unexpected behavior. Some time in the last few months, a change in either Firefox, the Flash player, or both, has made it so that Flash movies that are in inactive browser tabs no longer execute in real time. They appear to still execute, but only in bursts, and not in a predictable way. This is a problem because I develop a Flash-based (Actionscript 2.0, Flash CS3) multiplayer game that maintains a network connection and allows players to chat, etc.

I am trying to build a flash website for my social group to login in and view certain things posted by the owner, me, and I only want certain members to view certain things like if I post a message to my treasurer about an invoice to design a graphic for a company and that I request this ammount to intialize the project, I would only want her to see that and nobody else. Is there a way to make that happen in AS3?
Like FaceBook: You can login and register for a new account. Post on your wall (which I don't want that feature). Send messages and receive messages to and from people. Invite people to upcoming events (which I would like to have a calendar that I can create new events and have my members view the calendar and RSVP). And like when your posting on your wall you can make privacy settings change (similar to what I want just not friends only or just me option, I want Everyone, 'names of everyone that is a member to post this to'.).
