We are working on digital photo frame(DPF) project where we need to run DPF on 3 different resolutions, i.e., 800x480, 1024x600 and 1024x768. Is it possible to maintain only one .fla file for all resolutions? How can we go for it? We will be publishing it for flashlite 3 and using AS2. The application runs on a processor of 800MHz.... and total available memory is 128MB..
View 8 RepliesI would like to know how to resize flash to fit in browser/monitor sizes. This site http:[url]....is a perfect example. Notice how it opens with no scroll and fits to a window that matches your screen size.
View 1 RepliesI am thinking of having 2 diff. versions of images in an XML driven photo gallery. The flash movie is full browser (no scale) with elements that adjust to the size of the browser window. I'd like some of the images to be presented pretty large, but only if the user has enough screen resolution. If using a smaller screen, then it would display the smaller version.
Anyway to do this efficiently (yes I am prepared to upload 2 different versions of each image)? Or is this a bad idea with too much maintenance?
I have a custom Image class that I am using to store individual image information for a gallery application:
package mtm.test
{
public class Image extends Object
{
[Code]....
This is how I would implement the above:
var image:Image = new Image();
//I would be loading external bitmaps but for the example I'll just create new ones:
image[BitmapThumbnail] = new BitmapThumbnail(new BitmapData(65,65,false,0x000000));
[Code]....
Is there a simpler way to do this? I feel that there is a lot of repeated code within the BitmapType sub-classes.
At the least, this helps to avoid a bunch of for loops trying to find the requested size, and it seems portable to situations where more or less sizes of Bitmaps are required.
Does any one have a working fla. and php script to upload multiple files (with the specified max sizes, and file types) to a server? In addition, when there is an image being uploaded, it would be luxurious to have a thumbnail of the image being uploaded displayed.There is clearly not a simple issue. Scores of designers and developers encountered problems and headaches trying to upload multiple files with and image display (if an image is being uploaded). Even my web designer has a slight problem, although he tweaked some of the code to get a simple upload. Adobe needs to address this issue because it seems that sscores of designers and developers are having difficulty with uploading multitple files.
View 3 RepliesI have an AS3 .fla that loads an external XML file of image names, and then iteratively loads the images into the .fla. All this works great. What I want is to create a preloader that is aware of the size of all these external images. As far as I can tell there's no way to do this, but I'm hoping someone here is smarter than I am.
I tried Lee Brimelow's method of having a separate SWF whose only job is to load another SWF in its place. This doesn't work because the preloader's call to .bytesTotal only reads the bytes of the main SWF, not of the external XML or JPGs that are dynamically loaded into it. So the result is the preloader reaches 100% when the main SWF is loaded, but that happens really quickly and the bulk of the load time comes after the 100% mark, when the main SWF starts loading in images.
The more I think about this, the more it seems that you can never access the .bytesTotal property until you've already instantiated the loader and called the .load() method. Am I wrong? Is there a way to fetch just the SIZE of an external file without actually initiating the act of loading the file into memory?
I have an Air Application in Flex designed for 1280x800 which I would like to stretch to work full screen on a 1920x1200 monitor.
I've read this article: [URL] and tried it, but it only zooms the upper left corner (as mentioned in the article).
I work with a WindowedApplication (shown below) which holds a View (called MasterView) that contains all different lay-out elements.
My application (in brief) looks like this:

View 1 RepliesI have an AIR application. It should be moved around the screen with the mouse. In order to achieve this I use the event: this.stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, onMouseDown, true,-2);
It should be activated with the lowest priority compared to inserted elements for example those that should be scrolled, clicked, etc. I tried the solution shown below with the event priority set to -1 because there might happen 2 different events and my moving application event should be the last one to be serviced or shouldn't be serviced at all.

I am trying to decide what is going to be the best option to use for this scenario, Zinc or Adobe Air.I have a client who needs a backend touchscreen panel with a few buttons which, when pressed on will start a video on a dual screen setup on the other monitor.Using Zinc, will I be able to create two Exe files, one exe to host the backend "control panel" and the other exe to host the video player where the video will be played and will they be able to talk to one another. So if I press stop in the control panel, the video needs to stop in the other exe.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to print a HTML from my air app, however, this HTML should never be seen on screen. I am using HTMLLoader for this, as per some sample I saw on the web.
What happens, is that there is a print dialog, but it prints out a blank page.
If this is a window application, and I click some button to print (just the HTMLLoader) it gets printed.
Following is my code.
var mySprite:Sprite = new mySprite()
var loader:HTMLLoader = new HTMLLoader()
loader.loadString("ADDRESSThu Aug 20 21:37:20 GMT+0530 2009")

I'm developing a Flex application that is designed for screen resolutions of 1280x1024 and more. In the rare case that a projector is used (which usually has a maximum of 1024x768 pixels) I'd like to scale down the application (currently I get lots of scrollbars and clipping).
I've already experimented with the application's properties scaleX and scaleY as well as stage.scaleMode. However, I couldn't quite figure out a way to
render the application without scaling when the application's width and height are larger than certain values use scaling when the width or height are smaller than certain values
I have been looking on google and couldn't find a answer. I have a application I created in adobe flex and I need it to scale to the users screen and fill the entire browser window no matter what.
View 1 RepliesI have an enterprise Flex web application, served up over https, that runs fine on Flash player 10.0 and beyond on a desktop computer/browser.
However, when I run it from my HTC Incredible with Android 2.2 the app loads fine, but there is no on-screen keyboard and so I cannot log in. I can see the blinking cursor inside the username and password text fields. I can switch between them. I can even hit the login button and see an authentication error!
In ActionScript 2.0, I am trying to make my application resize to Full Screen mode (for Flash Player 9). It goes to full screen correctly, with the typical message "Press ESC to exit Full Screen mode".

So when I go to to Full screen mode I do

View 1 RepliesWe have an applicaiton using AS3 that we run in FlashPlayer 9 and 10 (swf embeded in html). The applciaiton is designed to collect information from an applicant/prospective student. When the user clicks the exit button we show a modal dialog (using the Alert class) with Yes and No.When the user confirms the exit we set display controls,application controls, data displays,campus selection,sub applications to null and unload modules and reinitialize the application before sending a comand to the web browser to reload(usinf the ExternalInterface class). Ideally this will bring the user to the welcome/login page without having any artifacts from their prior flash session.I am having issues with two dfferent things
- When the user clicks yes or no, the applicaiton delays closing the alert modal for about two seconds.
- The applicaiton flickers before reloading.

View 1 RepliesI'm kinda stuck on a project I'm working on and need some guidance. I've been making educational Flash Videos and all the lessons. Each lesson is it's own SWF. I know how to make each SWF into it's own AIR application, but don't know how to get all of them into one AIR application.
Basically I'd like to create an Interface like this:http://bit.ly/h9OKPH Where I have a menu screen where you have all the lessons. When you click on a lesson it will take you to another frame and load the SWF for that lesson. I know I can import all the SWFs into a new Flash File, and then publish an Air Application, but I was hoping for a less time consuming and more resource efficient way to do so (I want the app to be optimized for speed).
Can i use multiple HTTPService in one flex application? I have tried the following but it can have only one creationComplete= " " Is their any work around?

I don't know if I can do what I want in flex, so imagine this in ASP: I have an aspx page that loads a Login.ascx control, the control checks if login is correct, and if so the aspx page loads the XXX.ascx control (so there is only one control visible).
I want to do more or less the same in Flex: I have the main application with the code that connects to the database, check the login, and if its correct it loads a new module. I have made everything until the module load, I mean, I have the main application (Login.mxml) associated to a Login.as, and a Module.mxml associated to a Module.as. When the user press the login button (in Login.mxml), a method is fired and checks the login. If it is correct, it shows the new module.
My problem is that it is shown in the same page that the login page, instead of "changing" the page. I have used two ways to do that: ModuleLoader and PopUpManager, and both load the new module in the same page.
QUESTION: How can I load, inside an application, a Flex module in a different page?

I am interested in developing AIR apps for Android tablets (Xoom, Transformer, Playbook, Iconia, Galaxy Tab, et cetera). I expect to encounter different pixel densities ("information densities" as the Flash documentation says).
The different densities on the screens between tablets creates a situation in which objects on the screen can have very different sizes and appearances even if the screen resolutions are identical.
The Android developer information from Google recommends creating different layouts and providing different graphic assets for different densities.
I don't see a way to do this in Flash.
The marketing material I initially saw on Flash Pro 5.5 seemed to suggest that Flash Pro 5.5 supports multiple screens across devices (there was a big ampersand in the advertisement).
Does Flash Pro 5.5 address the variations in screen densities for Android tablets? If so, what does it require the developer to do in order to achieve this? (Point me to specific documentation if possible.)
I trying to make a application for multiple videoconferencing, in which more than one peaple can join. During my analysis I have got one issue: Suppose four users are making a conference meeting and all of them are publishing their respective videos. All the video are displayed on on each screen. But due to limited connection and bandwidth I am making connection or viewing each publisher one at a time in every 15 sec, which make still image. but I want to clear the video of the respective person who has either logged out or stop publishing. I have tried the netstream event i.e netstream.unPublishNotify but it works only when I have made connection for viewing. But sometimes it happens that I have no connection for viewing for that perticular person as per the timer. so I want to know who is publishing video at the time of making connection for that perticular view. How could it be possible to know whether the live stream is coming or not at the time of view.
View 1 RepliesAdobe air runtime prevents more than one instance of an air application to be started at the same time. Is it safe to circumvent this restriction by arbitrarily changing the publisher ID? Does anyone know if Adobe plans to allow multiple concurrent instances in Air 2.0?
