We are currently looking at developing flash based applications (using Flex) in a web application. We are now leaning towards to use SVG rapheljs for developing this components. The questions are: Is still SVG platform is widely adopted by browsers (without any plug-ins) are at least down the line of 8-10 months, any adoption is expected by browsers? Cross-browser support is god for us. Is SVG can replace for a small time animation based programming instead of Flash
I have a Flash movie (.swf) file embedded within a webpage.I am looking to have an image display if the user does not have Flash installed or has it turned off.
I'm trying to replace some contents in a website by using the following code:[code]The problem is that I have some flash embedded on the DOM and whenever I try to do the replacement the browser crashes.Somebody should thing that a prepend or append in the right place should be a better method to achieve this, but the elements I'm trying to locate and replace are html comments and the append prepend methods do not seem to work with this kind of nodes so they have to be treated as literal strings.
I have a website that has a Flash banner. For devices that do not support Flash (like iPads) I want to display an image instead. What is the best practice to deal with this situation? Should this be handled from the front-end with JavaScript?Should this rather be handled from the back-end? (I am using Java on the back-end)
I have used loadXMl.as file for XML to Object conversion till date. I am now converting the framework from AS1 to AS3.
Is there any alternate in AS3 for XML to Object conversion other than using the XML class. I am facing a lot of problems with XML class which I am not used to.
Here is the example
[Code].....
though I expect it to show undefined as the tag does not exist in the XML file.
I want to do something like this:"3*4".replace(/([0-9]+)[*]([0-9]+)/g, String(Number("$1") * Number("$2")))And no, i don't want to do that, but something more complex.
I would like to offer free apps in the Apple App Store, with the apps being ported versions of already existing, Flash-based websites I have created for clients. The website and the app would offer the same experience and mostly the same functionality, for example the portfolio of a company or artist.iPhone and iPad Visitors of the Flash-based website would be informed that there is no Flash available and they would instead be offered a link to the free app in the App Store.Since the clients obviously do make whatever kind of buisness and profit in the physical world, I am afraid that such an app might be considered free advertisement and be rejected from the store.So, is the approach violating Apple's terms and conditions?Is it realistic to offer free apps of that kind on a regular basis, for example as a Flash-focussed agency with many existing clients and projects?

I wish to replace my desktop replacement with a tablet PC I have visions of Cintique-like functionality yet portable majesty...
But the graphics cards on these machines are total crap. However, some graphics card models claim to steal memory from the RAM, so in theory if I soup up the RAM I have a really powerful graphics card?
Anybody out there author on a tablet PC? I'm running Flash CS3, and must make my decision soon![URL]..
my company (FB games) has fired everyone who knew what they were doing leaving me, with no knowledge of flash, staring at my to-do list near tears, unable to complete basic tasks.I need to take an existing walk cycle animation and replace the character with another design. After breaking the new character body into symbols, I've tried to sub them in using swap symbol. The body parts do not line up with the previous symbols, and they also seem to go flying all over the place when I run the cycle. I can't figure out how to just update the symbols without disrupting the placement.
I am a student with a mainly electronics background getting into programing. The more I get into it, the more I realize how bad I am at it. I am trying to get better at OO design.One thing I have been reading about is the use of Getters and Setters.

Now I can see the point they are making here but I am still unable to see away around some simple problems. And this brings me to my question (finally). I am setting up a simple tower defense game in AS3 as a learning exercise. I want enemies to follow way points so I was going to make an array of way points, and make that a property of a map object. And a way point was to be an object with an x and a y property (more like a struct).
I want to create a simple desktop admin application for an IOS app that will work with a REST api I've built.Couple of years ago I would go with Flex/Air, just makes it very simple. But since I am butt-hurt with the way Adobe have handled Flash in general, I am looking to write it using some different tool.So far, Java Swing looks rubbish (UI-wise I mean). Others aren't cross platform and often too complicated.
The windows pop up, the problem lies in that the pop ups wont replace each other.if one pop up is open, trying to open another one just makes the old pop up active, it doesnt open the contents of the new one. this is a big problem since the pop ups are for my portfolio to show the work at larger sizes. is there a way to tell the new pop up to close the old one and then open? would this be some sort of if... else statment? or is there some other code i should use for the pop ups?
I have a program where I have around 100 LatLng (latitude longitude) points, and i have to get the largest distance between any 5 of them but you can only go forward (so if latlng_1 is the point number 5 latlng_2 can only be point number 6,7,8,....,100). <-- skip the colored thing if its unclear So I calculate the distance like this:
Code: Select allfor(i=0;i<points_num;i++) { for(j=i;j<........ // three more for loops // and than calculate the distance between all five points and compare if it is larger than previous...
The problem is that the program stops responding for about 2 minutes to calculate this and I would like to know if there is anything I can do to calculate this thing faster? Yes I can reduce the point but than the thing I want to get is less accurate and even if I reduce the points I still want the calculation to be as fast as it can be.
I import my text from a external text file, my text is in html but i have to use a (& n b s p ; ) space to make sure that a part of my text will not drop down on the following line.The (& nbsp; ) code is not understood by flash and make all the following text desappeared.
Inherited some flash widgets that are developed in .fla format and exported to .swf apps, using Flash Pro CS5. I have only limited understanding of AS3 or 4, flex and flash in general, but I'm quickly becoming dangerous.
My bottom line problem is I need to find a command line tool to 'build' the .fla source into .swf entities. q1: are there any cmd line tools with the Flash Pro CS5 for such purpose? I cant seem to find any, but I may not be looking at the right places.
I know there's such a thing as the Flex SDK, but what's under Flash CS5 at "Adobe Flash CS5CommonConfigurationActionScript 3.0flex_sdk", doesn't seem to have anything useful in it, only a general flex library.
Another requirement I need to solve is to create customer specific, purpose built versions of the widget. From the Flash IDE, I can figure out how to replace the background images, etc., but.q2: how can I do this at export/build time and later on, via the command line tool?
Basically, a build/compile directive in source would allow the swf builder to replace a given image asset with the version I intend to build with.
I'm making a website in AS3/PHP (databasecalls) and I want to load news on the homepage, fed from a mySQL database. No problem to get plain text with AMFPHP. But I'm looking for something different. I know how to load images/YouTube videos within AS3, so I want to spice up the news a little with that. Is there any way I can input something like
I have a flash (.swf) movie on the homepage of a website which runs automatically after been downloaded to browser. However this is creates problems since the swf soon crashes(with message :The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed) and gives error messages like "A script is becoming unresponsive...." Since rest of my site is pure html and js but flash content makes the site very sucking and I want to replace it with a simple better alternate. What options exist for me to replace flash content?
Im having a little problem making javascript communicate with actionScript, Here is the problem, i have a application that uses javascript to communicate with SWF and pass it some values, and the code was working in AS2 with the following:
[Code]....
in this example the aplication would pass key to the javascrip function and the function would put the value in the swf variable called _root.valor. So the problem is (as you already know) _root has gone in AS3. And every thing i tryed so far seems not to work. every thing i read so far was to embeb the swf in the js and use root.loaderInfo.parameters.valor, well i dont want to use the embedSWF because i need to get the activeX cotnrol from my document. Is there any _root replacement? is anyway to get this to work at all ?
I am using Flash profassional cs5 and want to create an iPad application but it only allow to make iphone application. It allows to install on iPad but the resolution is very small.
I have made one one mobile application in flash builder using flex mobile project I have a question that "why size of an .ipa file is large as I export a mobile application as iOS application.???? in compare to that same application for android takes small size!
I have an AIR app that gets bundled with XML files that the app needs. These get put into the APP Storage Directory, of course. Works great. But when I install a new version ( which includes new XML files) , the new files don't get added or overwrite the ones from the previous version. It seems that if that directory is there from a previous install, the installer will ignore the part where it moves included files.
I am creating an application. At one view I have three states. If I changes state and than back button pressed it unloads the application.I am developing it in Adobe AIR.
I want adobe sockets to send "customized" class object to a server socket(WinSock2). I used socket.writeObject(myClassObj). Actually My flash application and windows application works for string buffer but not for object.
Code: //Flash var buffer:String = "God Bless Us"; socket.writeUTFBytes(buffer);
Currently i'm developing a facebooks apps with falsh application. i've have completed the development with all API required to run a facebook apps. Everything went well and it's live now. My question :
1. How can make user to go directly to the application page everytime they click the link posted by user who already use the application instead going to the canvas page applications. i'm been trying to look for the article that support saying that user will go directly to application directly to canvas application page instead of going to the application page.
I need to make my Flash application create a connection to a remote application and have the remote application send periodic updates to my Flash animation. The remote app is written in VB 6, and does not support XML sockets. However, I don't need the ability to send or receive XML since I am going to be overriding the onLoad() event anyway.
Or maybe I do need that ability... I'm having trouble getting my onLoad() event to trigger. Right now I'm just testing the onLoad event like this:
[code]...
So, basically I'm trying to find out how I can format the data I'm sending it so that the onLoad() event triggers. I've read that the XMLSocket object listens for the Null byte, so perhaps the data I'm sending it doesn't terminate properly. I need a persistent connection from Flash to the VB app because the VB app will be the one initiating the updates to the Flash application. Is the XMLSocket the way to go here, or is there another class of objects that I'm missing?
Is there any application which can relay another application on Flash Media server? For exmaple I have a "live" application on the server. I want another application, "liverelay" which can basically relay what is coming on the "live" application. Is it possible? If so how can I implement it? Looking forward to a response.
