Professional :: URL Relative To Flash Button?
Mar 14, 2011
I'm finishing up a flash template that I have used on numerous occasions and it has worked really well. This time however, the nav button that is used to bring up html pages within my site got out of whack. I have checked (and changed) the flash/menu_v8.swf?button=3 relative to the index page I'm trying to link to, but to no avail. I have also gone into Flash and can change the h-link of the TEXT on the button to the corresponding page, but it makes no changes whatsoever.

I create a projector for Linux by executing a swf file in flash player and chosing "create projector" from the file menu. The initial swf loads external resources (using MovieClip Loader.loadClip for example). In the swf this works fine but in the projector this fails. The projector seems to always execute in the users home directory no matter where it is in the file system, thus to find the external resources the path should be relevant to the users home directory. The problem i now have is that my application will be packaged and distributed on a cd rom. At development time i have no idea of the path to where the cd-rom will be mounted in the end users machine.For what motive does the projector execute in the users home directory and not in its real location?

I am developing a Flash application where I load some images. The image paths are contained in an xml file that is read from the application .Up to now, I am using relative paths in the xml file. My question is if I can use site root relative paths?Let's say the site's directory is sth like below
- root
- /images
- /image1.jpg[code]....
I know I can use absolute paths but I prefer to use site root relative paths if that is possible.

I'm having some problems when creating a projector of my movie. The movie dynamically loads other resources using the class MovieClipLoader. In a swf running in the standalone player the path to these resources is relative to the path of the swf. However when I create a projector from the shockwave the path to these resources is absolute and one directory higher than the real path.
For example.
1) I have a main.swf and resource.swf in the same folder /home/myuser
2) main.swf loads resource.swf with the line of actionscript
myMovieClipLoader.LoadClip("resource.swf", someClip);
3) I open the swf in standalone flash player and everything works fine.
4) I create a projector mainProjector and save it in the same directory.
5) The projector cannot find resource.swf unless i put it one folder up in /home in which case all works correctly.
6) I also note that I am able to move mainProjector anywhere in my system since it would seem to always execute in /home regardless of where i move it from which I deduce that the absolute path /home is saved in the projector. This would make it impossible to distribute the projector in a CD-ROM.

I'm developing my first flash app. I'm trying to use classes because they'll be very important in my future app. I created a simple movieclip with a star. However, instead of putting it directly on the stage, I'm calling it from library, using the addChild method to place the star in the stage. To do that, I simple right click over the movieclip icon->properties->check export to action script->and I give a name to the class (for example: myMC)
Then, inside the class I wrote:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
public class myMC extends MovieClip {
var star:myMC=new myMC();
public function myMC() {
[Code] .....
As I am placing the two variables origin_x and origin_y inside the constructor, I'm expecting to get 250 and 200 respectively. After drop the star, I want to send it to it's original place, and that's why I need to keep this values. And here's the problem, origin_x and origin_y are both ZERO, instead of 250 and 200... The value is not relative to stage. I managed a little bit and I found this post : [URL]. Unfortunately I tried to replace by the suggested code, but both values remain zero. An interesting thing, is that if I put the star directly in the stage instead of calling it from the library as I am doing, I get correct values in origin_x and origin_y.

So I just found out the hard way that the path that Flash uses to load external content is based on the HTML it is embedded in, not the SWF itself. This is a problem for me because I have the HTML generated from a PHP file that is in a folder below the SWF. The PHP has other dependencies that would break if I moved it into the same folder as the SWF.So basically now my dev testing and web versions are separated by a folder.Is there a way to change the relative path Flash uses? Or am I going to have to hack things up?

I've downloaded the tweener.swc from their google project page I create my fla file put it in a folder and put in the same folder the tweener.swc file.
I go to ActionScript settings > Library path > hit the + button > I type the relative path which should be just tweener.swc or not sure but just a dot (.) or / to get all the classes and libraries from the same folder in which the fla is located.
But it says it can't load the swc or my imports don't find the classes.
P.S. With absolute path it works.

When I drag and drop images in flash library, the path is sometimes relative (./somefolder/someimage.png), and sometimes it is absolute (D:lahsomefoldersomeimage.png).
How can I use only relative paths in flash library in order to be able to update all images from any computer and/or from any folder ?

where I copied butterfly.swf in a directory called images. images directory resides in the views folder.
If I use code behind( default.aspx default.aspx.cs) in a different solution with the same folder strucuture, browser is able to load the flash file.

In services-config.xml we got following configuration of endPoint.
<channel-definition id="any-amf" class="mx.messaging.channels.AMFChannel">
<endpoint url="http://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/amf" class="flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint"/>
</channel-definition>
Before compiling flash application i set up context-root as compilaction option.
binmxmlc -context-root / -services "flex/services-config.xml" -optimize=true -o ....inMessenger.swf Messenger.as
In my case this is "/"
And the problem is that messanger.swf is able to pull request if the web application is started as ROOT in tomcat webapps. I mean it can only be access by this url localhost:8080/. If i try to move webaplication to another folder - for example to localhost:8080/myApplication messenger.swf would not work properly sinse i have to change root_context as well.
So my question how to dinamicly determine context-root in run time, without hardcode it as option of compiler ? I want my .war application work properly regardless of it position in webapps folder(url).

I was trying to get a ballpark idea of how much slower Flash is at pure pixel-pushing 2D graphics than doing the same thing in SDL or other native library. For instance if I have a Flash/Flex app on a modern PC which each frame does a 2D loop and directly reads/sets every pixel, what equivalent PC would give the same performance for a native C++ app? Maybe a classic Pentium, a PII, PIII?

I am in the midst of finishing up a design application where you can upload images and colors. I use the greensock transform manager. I am taking anything a user does and recording it so I can recreate what they made on larger scale behind the scenes (to be exported for printing purposes)
The problem I am running into is with rotation and moving x and y values. The transform manager does everything relative to a center point, but when i recreate the image object the registration point is at the top left. I have found how to rotate around the center of the object using the transform matrix, but I can't seem to move the x and y correctly because these values change when you rotate. I want to just move the image to the left or right relative to the center. How could I go about doing this.
Here is how I rotate.
private function rotateAroundCenter (ob:*, angleDegrees:Number, ptRotationPoint:Point) {
var m:Matrix=ob.transform.matrix;
m.tx -= ptRotationPoint.x;

I'm using Flash Builder 4.6 and in one of my ActionScript projects, I have a referenced .swc library file.The way I added it was Project > Properties > Flex Library Build Path > Library Path tab > Add SWC...Here a popup occurs and I must select a .swc file by browsing through my machine and selecting one. Once I do that, it'll display the added library like this:
somelibrary.swc - /Full/Path/to/the/swc/here/lib/somelibrary.swc
What I want to be able to do is use a relative path instead, like:
somelibrary.swc - ../../lib/somelibrary.swc
Does anyone know a way to do this or a workaround to be able to use relative paths for swc libraries in Flash Builder?

I have been wondering over this for a while now and I have tried a number of different soloutions to no avail. I am used to designing HMTL website but for a portfolio I would like to create a Flash site. One problem is dynamic screen sizes, although I have a soloution it isn't idealy what I would like.
My current soloution is to size the stage to a 1024 x 768 resoloution and scale it to 100% on a webpage. The background for my flash is massive, 1920 x 1080, equivelent to full HD size, to support as many screens as possible, the flash has a No Scale atribute. Unfortunatly this method dosen't only increase filesize, but makes the content restricted to a small area of the screen which looks terrible on large displays.

I have a problem with relative addressing... it's not about _root stuff, but how to open an html page from a Flash movie.The Flash movie is inside a Folder named "Dogs". And the html document is outside this folder, sitting in the main folder for the site.Usually if I call a movie from inside a folder I put a slash eg. getUrl("dogs/intro", "window")but i want to go in the opposite direction, from inside this folder to a file outside... does that make sense?

I am creating a film strip of thumbnails and am dynamically creating the thumbnails from an xml file. All this works great. The issue becomes the fact that I need for the filmstrip to resize when the window is resized and add or remove the number of the thumbnails as necessary. In order to calculate where the last thumbnail should be, I'm using the following code to calculate the x position:
PHP Code:
var lastX = rightArrow.x - (thumbWidth + 10);
where rightArrow is actually filmstrip.filmnav.rightArrow. I get the correct answer - but when I add the thumbnail to the movieclip filmstrip.panelscontainer.thumbcontainer, it's actually on top of the rightArrow. Clicking on both of them to see where Flash thinks the X is will show that Flash this the X of the thumbnail is at 607 and flash thinks the X of the thumbnail is 731, which is as it should be -- so why is the thumbnail so far to the right?The first thumbnail should always be x=10 and that is working fine and I'm currently not trying to layout the other thumbnails because they were all screwed up with a similar problem.
