I need a custom multi-user multi-chatroom app to extend an existing Flex app that I have.
I obviously wouldn't like to develop it from scratch, but focus only on the customizations and integration.
Are there any products (free or commercial) that provide multi-chatroom functionality from which I could start?
I'm about to develop a multi-chatroom Flex app, and potentially add to it in the future real-timish audio capabilities (push-to-talk audio messaging).
I'm considering Smartfox, Electro, Wowza, and LCCS.
I have developed a simple chat room but how do I go about showing who is online and what happen if the user close the web browser without disconnect, will the user name in the online list be remove immediately? I use mx.messaging.channels.StreamingAMFChannel and set <subscription-timeout-minutes>3</subscription-timeout-minutes>
View 1 RepliesWe are going to develop a simple chatroom in flex using Red5.Should we store UserList in a Remote Shared Object or Server Side List?Are there any example exit on Red5 or FMS , which uses Server Side programming and Remote Shared Objects? Red5 examples are not documented at all.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to make a multiuser (Flash Media Server 3 compatible) version of Pictionary in AS3.(Using Flash CS3).The part that is particularly confusing me is "how can I refresh the drawing on the screen of the user who is not currently drawing?"Looking at them both they are not drawing "real time" but instead refreshing the drawing every second or so. That would be fine for me... I just can't figure out how to share the drawing. (Essentially taking a snapshot of the current state of the drawing and sending it to the other players.)Currently I'm trying to send mouse position data to the SharedObject and then back to the drawing tool but this just creates a data lag and it doesn't show on the other player's screen.
View 2 RepliesHow can I make a Flash Application that can be shared? Shared in the sense of like a paint box. If someone is painting there then the painting must be shown to all users. This means each user can write and edit in the paint box at the same time..
View 1 RepliesThere are several flashbased painting/sketching online apps that allow multiple users to paint simultaneously. Some examples: [URL]For a project, we want to implement something similar. The question is, whether we need to start from scratch or whether there are any libraries available that could facilitate development (especially the networking part).

View 3 RepliesI have created a simple SWF-loader in ActionScript 3.0. It loads an SWF from a server and then plays it. While downloading, it displays the "loading" screen.Its main defect is that it can load only one Flash application - the one which it is compiled for. Let's say it's named test1.swf.Is there any way to make the loader support more than one Flash app (for example test2.swf and test3.swf)? I mean by passing external parameters to it and not by creating another loader. Is using Javascript the only way to do it? I don't want my loader to require the Javascript support.
View 1 RepliesI know there have been similar threads in the past but I can't seem to find a decent definitive answer / workaround for the problem I'm facing.What I'm trying to do: capture ALT+SHIFT+something keyboard events. Pretty straightforward, right?
Issue: When pressing ALT+SHIFT doesn't seem to ever shoot an event. The only combination that seems to work with ALT is CTRL+ALT +something, as pointed out here.
Question: I've read that the browser catches some of the keyboard events, but this happens with the basic flash player too - maybe that catches events too? Would love to know if there is a solution that doesn't involve messing with JS.
Is it possible to have an AIR application built in Flex run as process or receive intents? For example if I wanted to make a calendar and each time there was an event at a certain time, have the AIR up which isn't running in the foreground, pop-up and inform the user that "it's time". Can it be done with the current stable versions of both AIR and Flex SDK?
View 1 RepliesI have a Flex app I built. It uses the BrowserManager class to listen for changes in the # part of the URL. When a change is made to the hash my application updates accordingly so you can link directly to a state of the application. Also inside my programming when a user clicks something, all I do is use the BrowserManager to update the # and then my listener will apply the correct changes once its finished. I believe this is the best practice way to doing this in Flex.
I have some issues though. When using the Back button in FF or IE, it gets "stuck". for example if the hash is like #state4 clicking the back button will take you to #state3 then #state2 but sometimes get stuck where you can be on #state3 click the back button, see it flicker to #state2 real quick then change back to #state3 preventing you from going back any further in your history.

What's the best way to communicate between 2 Flex/Flash apps on the same webpage? I need a 3rd party Flash app to call a function on my Flex 4 app (they are ready to customize their 3rd party app how I specify). I use ExternalInterface.call("javascript_function", arguments) extensively. I know there's a bridge to go from Javascript to Actionscript as well. So I guess I could go from their flash app -> javascript function -> flex bridge -> my flex app. Do I have to go through javascript? Is there a better way?

View 3 RepliesI've looked at a few demos from adobe that show apps built with Flex 4.5 running on iOS from simple list views to video capture. This has made me wonder if its an effective solution to build cross platform mobile apps.
For those of you who have taken Flex 4.5 mobile for a spin, what is your impression on the capability and performance on iOS. Is there anything you can't do with Flex 4.5 mobile that you couldn't with a native app? Are there any limitations?
