Actionscript 3 :: Flash - "Shutdown" Or "close" Event?
Aug 25, 2010
I am making a Flash puzzle game. When the user loads the game, it needs to ask whether to resume the game from the last state (if it exists). I have a serializati system in place, but I need to ensure that the loaded state is definitely the last state.One solution is to save the state to a SharedObject every time the state changes (when the player makes a move). However, the game state sometimes includes a countdown, so I'd have to be constantly (or periodically) saving the state in order to retain it. I guess this is acceptable, but it seems kludgey.Is there any event which is fired when the swf is closed? Or anyone else have another elegant solution to this?
A client connected to the FMS for playing live video.The problem has been found that when FMS shutdown the network, the client's NetConnection didn't dispatch any event.But when the client shutdown the network the client's NetConnection will dispatch NetConnection. Connect.Closed event.How could flash client know the FMS' server side networking problem? Does it necessary to use heartbeat mechanism between FMS and client?
The only way I have found so far to capture the browser window close event from actionscript/flash is actually to capture the event in javascript, and then use a javascript/flash data passing from the javascript callback.
Something around those lines:
window.onbeforeunload = clean_up; function clean_up() { var flex = document.${application} || window.${application};

I have a flash file of about 400 frames. Frame 5 - 300 is done by previous person. I am to "add" a video FLV progressive streaming file from frame 301 onwards. And when the "video" has finished playing, go to frame 5 and continue playing. I tried to use the onClipEvent but could not find anything to deal with the streaming video close.
I need to save some settings files before the application closes. What event should I listen on? I have tried to listen to Event.EXITING but from the code below I only see "exit" in the output window like 1 out of 5 times. It is thus not working
I import a external SWF into a UILoader, the SWF contains a netStream that I need to close from a Main.swf event handler, slideShow_btn. Basically from Main.swf when/if slideShow_btn event happens I need to check and close the nsStream in videoplayer.swf Here are my event handlers in Main.swf
I am trying to capture the event; which is invoked when we close the AIR window by clicking its Close button (on the top-right corner). I have tried the following; but none of them seems invoked:
I'm having issue where the titleBar event listener is override the buttons (i.e. close button) event listener. In my codes, i have a button called close button added to the titleBar. when i try to do the mouse over/out event listener for titleBar and close button, only the titleBar would react. It seems that the event listeners for titleBar are overriding the button event listeners. (Basically i want to change the mouse cursor icon when targeting the title bar and then different mouse cursor icon when targeting the close button)

I have a bug in my Flash cs3. After I close the program, it is still running.What I mean is, if I check task manager (Ctrl, Alt, del) Flash.exe is still running. Also, I can no longer re-open Flash unless I end the process in task manager first.
Is this even possible? What I want to happen is I want people to click "watch video" and it makes a pop-up with the Flash video player in it. Within that video player I have a "close" button.Is it possible to click that close button and close the whole pop-up?
