Actionscript 3 :: FP10 Causing Text To Flicker And 'bloom'?
Dec 9, 2009
I have run into a small graphics glitch in Flash.It seems to be both in FP9 - Exported via Flash CS3, and FP10 Exported via the Flex 4 beta SDK.The glitch /problem manifests itself as embedded text at a small point size "blooming" under certian conditions.It basically looks like the antialiasing becomes fatter at some level of text brightness. I have made a small test case below. (Obviously) You will need to embed the Arial font in your compiled SWF for the below code to work.[code]You can see an example of the problem by rolling over the graphical element here: url..It's not really an option to change to AntiAliasType.NORMAL as it makes the text way less readable at this point size.

I have a text field component that I am dynamically populating with text. The words appear one letter at a time in a teleprinter style fashion. I also have rendered certain words with HTML to make style changes within the text.Now all this works fine, except because the HTML text is larger than the body of the other text, I am losing theteleprintereffect at the bottom of the text field. In other words, after a set amount has been printed, users are not seeing the letters printed out one at a time, but instead just get a printed line of text appear from beneath the visible section of the text window.

Mask causing text under it to appear to move...I have a mask that scrolls to the right over text.Before the mask comes on stage the same text is on a different frame before it in the exact same coordinates. But when the mask appears it makes the text under it seem to slightly move to the left. I've realized it is the mask that makes this seem to happen.I'm probably not doing something right with the mask, but I'm not sure.

Why would this happen?
I've added Helvetica to my Library. I've set it to export for Actionscript. I've given it the name 'Helvetica'. I'm setting the defaultTextFormat. Then I tell it to embedFonts, and the bloody textfield doesn't show up.
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
tf.defaultTextFormat = new TextFormat('Helvetica Neue', 13, 0xFFFFFF);
tf.embedFonts = true;

I am trying to make scrolling text appear on a few screens, so that when I click on a button to go to the next frame the characters of a sentence will appear one after another as if someone is talking. This works a few times however when I go back to the first frame the following error occurs and the text no longer appears?
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I have a FLA file that when I open it and I rollover any title in a palette window all the text in that and every window disappears. For instance the title "Timeline" will vanish. And most of the text in the palette vanishes, for instance all the text in the properties panel disappears like "Position and Size". This does not occur with any of my many other FLA files. I have had some issues with fonts lately. After deleting some bad fonts, my FLA ask me to remap some fonts, which I do. Everything in the FLA appears to be working fine.

[url]... am attaching a movie clip containing pixel fonts. i have a stage listener that places the movieclip at stage.width/2 and stage.height/2.
if i publish the movieclip that gets attached on its own, its perfect, i can resize any way i like but if i resize the browser window when i attach it the text can get blurred. im assuming the movie clip may be placed on a decimal point rather than a whole pixel and this is causing the blurring.
is there any way that you can set the attach movie function to place a movieclip at stage center "to the nearest whole pixel"[code]...

Anybody notice any issues when resizing windows that are embedded using the new "gpu" wmode? Like a noticeable lag and some scaling issues for about a second before it fixes itself? Its not a big problem but it is a lot less smooth than previously...Edit: I threw together a quick demo so you can have a look. I'm working on a site and it really has to use the new gpu wmode since it improves the performance quite significantly.

So I am learning AS3 slowly.First project in it.I am having some troubles. (I know I need to learn to code class based, working on it, familiarizing myself with some of the basics before I change my style completely).I have set up my stage to have four instances of a movieclip named silverScreen0 - silverScreen3.Each of those has a content layer in it which I am dynamically loading an identical swf.I then have a mask I put over each clip so that it only show a specific area.
-First issue comes up that hte fourth mask seems to move/distort on load, as you'll see in the swf.
-Second issue comes up when the loaded swf comes in ... the mask seems to shift if the swf has a motion animation, click the second white circle above chapter1 to see this.
-Third issue comes up when I move the content layer inside of the silverScreen# clip ... the mask seems to move as well. No example of this but if you download the source files you can see it.[code]

Flash files I embed have faulty plugin detection - it does not recognize FP10 as an upgrade from FP9. This is in the knowledgebase, but it does not suggest a solution. "Some websites will ask you to install or update Flash when you already have the Flash 10 plugin installed. This is not a problem with your Mozilla browser or your Flash plugin, but with certain websites that misidentify Flash 10 as Flash 1 due to a faulty detection scheme. Contact the website and ask them to correct the problem or, on Windows, you can try the site in Internet Explorer, since the Flash ActiveX detection may work even though the plugin detection does not."

I'm messing around a bit with the new fp10 drawing api and drawtriangles. i've created a little something i think is kinda of cool, though i can't seem to get the uv-mapping working as i want. since i'm just moving points in z/y direction i don't really have and z-value to calculate the uv with. though the bitmap texture gets distorted. i've tried to calculate a "fake" z-value with x and y, but since my maths skills are terrible i can't really get it to work.
i've thrown together a little sample here below (code obviously needs cleaning up, but i'm gonna worry about that when i've got it working as i want to). in this example z-val will always be 1 and no perspective fixing will be done. so i really need your to figure out how i can take my calculated x and y point and turn them into a "fake" z-point and use that to avoid distortion in the map/texture.

I have been using the flashvars from swfobject for a long time to pass info into my swf for specific outcomes. I am just starting to publish everything using flash player 10 and wasnt able to get my variable to be seen by the swf. maybe i was doing something incorrectly with this new file? but i then took code from my older files and they didnt work either... then i published down to flashplayer 9 and it worked perfectly... ???
i am using swfobject 2.2 and my code for passing the flashvar is
// Flash Code:
Code:
var r:int = root.loaderInfo.parameters.varName == null ? 0 : root.loaderInfo.parameters.varName;

I can just create a new project, target Flash Player 10.2 and paste this into frame code:
[Code]...
The event never fires off. I look in the reference for StageVideo and I see it's available in Flash Player 10.2. What's up with this? edit: If I target AIR for iOS, this event does fire (I have AIR3.0 overlayed).

I'm trying to debug an old AS2 project that uses an old version of MDM Zinc and its driving me mad not having a decent debugger.
Especially as I need to debug on several platforms,e.g by Zinc exe works fine in XP but not in Vista.I tried downloading the latest XRay stuff from GoogleCode but it doesn't seem to work as my player is the lastest FP10 I suspect that this could be the result of FP10 sandbox security changes to local connection.
PS. I did look at DeMonster debugger but I can only find an AS3 version

This is weird - thought I'd done this before but for some reason it's giving me an error now.
Importing XML text, setting as textField HTMLText:
<a href="mailto:bob@domain.com">foo</a>
- gives me "XML error: Mismatched tag at line 432" in the browser (it works fine when previewed out of Flash).

We create Flash games which are embedded within third party wrapper SWF files, which are exported for FP9.If I create an FP10 SWF which uses classes specific to FP10 (Pixel Bender classes such as Shader, ShaderData), when I run them in an FP9 wrapper within an FP10 player, an error is thrown VerifyError: Error #1014: Class flash.display::Shader could not be found.I thought this may be something to do with ApplicationDomains - maybe the child SWF was forced into using the global classes from the parent SWF, but assigning a new ApplicationDomain to the child didn't make any difference. Is there any way to get access to these FP10 classes - or does the version of the outermost wrapper SWF always determine what's available to child SWFs? It seems odd that the FP10 classes are not available in a FP10 player.

I'm making a simple drag and drop game, but the strangest thing is happening on IE with FP10: the sub-assets of the draggables shift their positions when the parent is dragged quickly.The mouseChildren of the draggables is set to false, and the cacheAsBitmap is set to true. And it functions beautifully on Safari and Chrome. This is client work, so I can't really post a link here without their permission.

I'm making a banner in flash, and are moving some simple objects around.I mainy use vector squares, but when I tween them (classic tween) in a slow motion, the shape starts to "flicker" or "lag". Why is this?I think there has to be something with the calculations Flash is doing, but why can't it make the animation smooth?

I created my flash menu over a year ago, and need to upgrade it by adding a sub menu. I'm not very savy with flash, i usually google any actionscript that i need and guess my way through. I'm having a particularly hard time trying to figure out how to resolve the issue of my submenu flickering while the cursor is over it. I understand it's probably some problem with the layers and embedding, etc. i've attached the .fla to move things along quicker.

I need to load separate SWF files depending on different flash buttons being pressed. The problem is I see a flicker inbetween SWF's being played. I think the flicker is where it goes back one frame - but I do not know how to solve this.
The first bike should scroll along to the left then stop, buttons should then appear that allow you to load the external/separate SWF files.

Whenever I hide the mouse pointer to replace it with custom made graphic, it causes curors to flicker rapdily outside of the browser window. When you type or move across URL bar, or try to scale the browser window by dragging its corner, the mouse pointer goes crazy.
