I want to write a chess variant into flash and would like to find chess components or an open source chess client (with no license restrictions). I don't need the engine, just the chess objects. The best thing would look very simple, 2D etc.
View 1 RepliesI am trialling Flash Builder 4 Premium.I'd like to know if it is possible to use components designed for Flash (e.g.URL... amongst many others) in Flash Builder 4? How can I import them? By import, I also mean they are first class citizens like the out-of-the-box Flash Builder 4 components.
View 1 RepliesIs there any opensourse, free set of components for creating Flex mxml graphs? like aviary Peacock style ones with at least Drag, drop, and connect generators so each graph element could have or something like that. Framework should be opensource (like GPL, LGPL etc) BTW: I found one wary bacic made by Erno Aapa with Degrafa but I would really love to see something much more Flex 4 - mxml oriented and frienfdly.

View 1 RepliesI'm doing a kind of PowerPoint presentation (to give a very basic idea of the whole concept) and there are a variety of dynamic content in there. Videos, audios, quizzes, etc. What I'd like to have, is components that the designers will simply have to drag on a slide and the component would then handle much of the work without needing any code at all.
The problem I have, is that I'd like to use SWC-based components, and then have a skin that can be applied (a bit like the FLVPlayback component). I have no idea where to go from here though, because most tutorials I find use FLA-based components. And I could turn to that if what I want to do ends up being too much trouble for what it's worth, but the division of the skin and the actual component is something I like a lot. Designers will only need to do a skin and tada, everything will (in theory :P) work.
Creating a window-based mxml component, but in design mode all components that I'm adding are not movable, why? If I create component based on group f.e., it's ok, but based on window - they are frozen. Using Flash Builder 4.6.
View 2 Repliesfirst I tried to install the NewGrounds Ad component for AS 3.0 which delivers as an .xmp file. I doubleclicked it and in the Extension Manager it's listed as active under Flash CS5. I restarted flash, but the component does not show up in the components list.I then tried to install the minimal components fromwhich are delivered as an SWC. I went to the ActionScript 3.0 settings in flash, went to the "library path" tab and clicked browse to swc to select the SWC file. but these components don't show up in the components list either.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to control the behavior of components in my Flash Library using a .as file class, but it doesn't seem to be working.
For example, if I have a Button in my library called exampleBtn and attempt to do this in the .as file:
exampleBtn.visible = false;
... nothing happens. The button is still visible in my application when I run it.
Can anyone explain the workflow to make a Flash library component accessible in a .as class file using Flash CS5?
In the .NET world order, companies like Telerik provide awesome sets of components for web/windows/silverlight. Who are the equivalents in the Flex/Flash universe? I see lots of sites filled with little 10/20 dollar menu components or uploaders, but I'm really looking to find something a step above that.

P.S. I have made an MC for each space on the board. They are the "droptargets"
I am in the process of creating a chess board where you can move the pieces. Currently i am working on the rook and the coding is below. I know it is not elegant and probably the most inefficient code out there, but this is day 2 of my actionscript 3.0 life and i am kinda a beginner. Anyway, so the thing is, when you click the piece the code below figures out the possible ways to go. Then green squares appear at those places. You can then press those green squares and then the rook will move there.
Ok, now to the problem. The squares will not go away. I want them all to be deleted when i have clicked on one of them and the rook will move there.

View 4 RepliesA few minutes after I log in several facebook flash-based applications (Cafe World, Treasure Isle, Frontier Ville) my pc shuts down. This has not always been the case, only in the couple past weeks. At first I thought my notebook was overheating...but how can a flash-based game overheat a pc in less than 5 minutes? I was a bit perplexed since ZyngaPoker (another flash-based app) causes no problems even if I play for an hour straight but then again I turned my notebook one morning after leaving it idle for 12 hours and went directly to one of the aforementioned apps. 3 mins and.. BAM. I have a good pc, always use Chrome and good software (such as CCleaner, Deffragler, SpeedFan etc).

View 3 RepliesI just discovered impure.com and was very impressed by what can be achieved in terms of visualizing data using their workspace. Although the platform is free to use, but not open source yet. This causes a few problems because the API section works with .com sites for eg. for ebay, so I cannot visualize ebay listings for regional sites such as ebay.in because the link to ebay.com is hardcoded.I searched around, but didn't find other projects that offer a similar way to work with site APIs and other data sources with the kind of user interface and detail that impure.com does in a realtime way within a browser window.This brings me to the questions:
-What technologies would be involved in creating a similar kind of project
-What are the open source tools that can help develop a fullscreen UI to render the workspace. Are there any alternatives to flash for this, and how do they compare
The goal would be to use standard python data structures, python scripts to do some processing on these data structures, scripts to gather data from csv, json and API sources such as google yahoo, wikipedia and flickr, and scripts to render graphs, tag clouds, network visualizations etc. Then bring them all together into a visual interface that supports drag drop and simple type checking.How would the python backend integrate with the UI.
I need a flash based video player that is able to trigger events I can listen to via JavaScript. The events I need to listen to are:
The play button is pressed The pause button is pressed The video stops (is finished)
why are those "values" input and component windows so badly designed, not resizable (well kind of albeit terribly badly) etc... This is an eyesore and a practical pain in the a**. Seriously Adobe... all these talks about "accessibility" etc... shouldn't it start in your own software ?!? You can fix this it's 2010.

View 9 Repliesit seems that I have installed wrong or corrupted component files, because every time i open Flash and try to use any component, there come error messages like "Unexpected file format" and Flash closes inmediatly after that...

View 2 RepliesFirst post here, I am a flash newbie. I have a fully completed player I have created using standard CS4 component, FLVPLayback, PlayButton, PauseButton, MuteButton and Seekbar. Everything works fine. I would now like to add and additional large centered play/pause button a la youTube.
I am completely stumped, I have tried duplicating the play button instance and quite a few other things (copying the actionscript from the original button that works) to the new button. I've investigated 'linkage' all to no avail, I can't get it to work.
