I have some effects which I use in my Flex app... They are all declared within mxml tags...
For example:
<mx:Fade id="fadeIn" alphaTo="1" duration="500"/>
<mx:Fade id="fadeOut" alphaTo="0" duration="500"/>
<mx:Move id="moveEffect" duration="500"/>

I've been working on a flash game, and recently added in sound effects. However, the sound effects only seem to play the first half-second of the audio file whenever I call on them to. I have been using the standard code.
ActionScript Code:
on (rollOver) {
if (_global.sound) {
_global.SFX1.start(0,1);
}}
But the sound effect only plays through a small amount of the audio. Also, the sound effects are not very stable, and will only play the butchered audio if there is some time in between clicking on several buttons. The odd thing is that I took the same code to another flash file, and the audio played through all the way with no problem, not requiring any additional time to play the sound effect again. I used the same code to load the sounds, which is
ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
_global.Music1 = new Sound();
Music1.attachSound('Music1');
_global.Music2 = new Sound();
Music2.attachSound('Music2');

View 4 Repliesi got a STREAMING mp3 file in loaded by mySound.loadSound("test.mp3", true). and we all know that this function will run while sound completes
Code:
mySound.onSoundComplete = function(){
trace("Sound Completed")
}
and this one while the sound is FULLY loaded
[Code]...
well i know there is no such thing... but i think now u get my ideas is there any alternative way to do the similar thing? cuz since it's streaming mp3, the song will be played during the loading progress...so both onLoad and onSoundComplete won't work....
The following is my codes. This is still work in progress; so, you will see some functions with empty contents. Plus, this is my first Flex application; please bear with me. This is a quiz application that gets the questions and answers to each questions from a ColdFusion web service. There are three types of questions, True or False, Multiple Choice with single selection, and Multiple Choice with multiple selections. So, based upon the question type, the application would dynamically generate the appropriate amount of radio buttons or check boxes for the users to select. I got these working. The problem that I am having is, I am not sure how to check what the users have actually selected. In some other forums and posts on other web site, it said that I can use event.currentTarget.selectedValue to get the user selection. But when I actually do it, I got a run-time error saying, "Property selectedValue not found on mx.controls.FormItem and there is no default value." My question is, what do I need to do to capture the user selections?

Basically i have a mini map and i want to check what a mini map tile is playing at.
so i tried to trace it, thinking that the error i get was only because the tile was not yet instantiated i made the following function appear after 1 second to be safe.
[AS] function startGame(e:Event) {
trace(getChildByName("tile1").currentFrame);
}[/AS]
Still get the following error.
1119: Access of possibly undefined property currentFrame through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject.
I placed .x (just a test value) instead of .currentFrame and i receive no error.
I guess .currentFrame checks for the MovieClips timeline during compilation?

View 3 RepliesI'm using the FLVPlayback class to play my FLV files.
If I'm trying to play a FLV file which is not existed yet then I am getting a "VideoError: 1000" with message of Unable to make connection to server or to find FLV on server.
I want to check for the FLV file existence using the file URL or path, before playing that FLV by FLVPlayback.
I'm sure this has been asked before, but I couldn't find the right answer.
I want my MC to load after a button is clicked. When that MC is finished playing I want an imported FLV to play. [code]...

View 1 RepliesI've created a search with a couple of comboboxes that allow users to filter their search results. The results are currently using a TileList & itemRenderer to display, and now I'd like to add an animation effect when the user filters their results. I know that you can use the itemsChangeEffect to create an animation effect when the user drags and moves result itmes. So I'd like to know if there's a way to create a similar effect triggered by the filtering on the comboboxes?

View 1 RepliesAm working in a flex projects needs zoom in & zoom out with
more effects apart from the default effects.
I have a flex application and I want to add a new custom component with action script at runtime. This works fine. I have created my custom component and added the following code:
var freeView:FreeView=new FreeView();
freeView.setStyle("showEffect",this.fadeIn);
freeView.setStyle("hideEffect",this.fadeOut);
[Code]....
But my problem is the fade in effecto is not working. I know I've declared the effect correctly because if I use it in another component (like a panel) it works fine.
I have multiple MXML custom components that I add on the fly (using a repeater) that is binded to an ArrayCollection. So everytime I add/remove item from the ArrayColleciton new items show/disappear from the screen. Is there a straightforward way to make item fade in when they get created and fade out when they are removed? I thought of using states and state transition effects but that will make things a bit complicated at different part of my application for those components to manage the states.

Is it possible to add event-based effects to Flex components (showEffect, hideEffect, addedEffect,...)? We can register them in MXML declaration
<s:TitleWindow showEffect="{myShowEffect}"/>
Can i do the same in AS code (like setStyle() for styles)?
Possible Duplicate: Flex 4 Group showEffect/hideEffect.I have an existing flex application that uses databinding to show/hide certain elements. It looks a little like this:
<namespace:CustomComponent visible="{modelObject.showCustomComponent}" />
To spruce it up a little bit, I went in and did this:
<s:Move id="ccRollIn" target="{cc}" xFrom="-400" xTo="50" />
...
<namespace:CustomComponent id="cc" visible="{modelObject.showCustomComponent}" show="ccRollIn.play()" hide="ccRollIn.play(null, true)" />
The problem with this is that while the show event plays perfectly, the item disappears from view before the hide effect has a chance to play. Is there a simple way to handle adding animations to this workflow?

I am using a TileList control with an effect sequence linked to the itemsChangeEffect property.[code]...
However, my data provider is a ListCollectionView that I use to filter items. When I set a filter criteria, it will hide a couple of items from the TileList but there is no animation like when I remove an item. Is there a way to animate the TileList when an item is filtered ?
In Flex 3, MX effects could be triggered like this:
<mx:Resize id="myEffect" />
<mx:Button mouseDownEffect="{myEffect}" />
In Flex 4, Spark effects are triggered like this:
protected function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
resizeEffect.end();
resizeEffect.play();[code]....
There might be small differences between mouseDown trigger and the click event, please ignore that, it's just an example.I'm not sure whether triggers would or would not work reliably for Spark effects. Maybe they would but I guess there is a reason why this possibility is not even mentioned in the official docs.
