Actionscript 3 :: How To Effectively Load SWF Libraries

Nov 14, 2010

I am making an AS3 project in FB4. In our workflow, we have artists compile art into SWC files which the I then link as 'Referenced Libraries' in FB4. Then I set the "Link Type" of the SWC files to "external" instead of merged into code. This should create SWFs corresponding to the SWC files in the output folder, right?

This doesn't seem to be the case. I am only seeing one SWF file: the main_app's.I was trying to make it so that I can use a library manager to load the files dynamically.I tried extracting the swfs manually, but it seems the main_app still compiles all the swcs to itself. I made sure the Link Type was set to external. The file size for the main_app between "external" and "merged to code" seem to be the same.

Flash Load Timing With Shared Libraries?

Jun 30, 2010

I've started using Shared Libraries and this subject peaked my interest... does Flash still have load timing issues with Shared Libraries? I found a few site online that mention that your Flash project will load but if it didn't have time to load your Shared Library, it simply won't load it and you are out of luck. Is this still true with the latest version of Flash? If so, how do I preload the library to make sure it doesn't happen?

Flex 4 / Apache Ant - Cannot Load ActionScript Libraries

Jun 26, 2011

I have been searching google, Apache Docs*, and FlashPunk forums looking for an answer to this: I cannot get Ant/Flex to find and compile a folder of libraries in *.AS format.

Here is my build.xml.
<project>
<!-- Flex SDK Properties -->
<property name="FLEX_HOME" value="/opt/flex"/>
<property name="MXMLC.JAR" value="${FLEX_HOME}/lib/mxmlc.jar"/>
<!-- Project Properties -->
[Code] .....

Results in many errors of the type "Definition net.flashpunk.masks:Grid could not be found" even though when I open the directories I can see the *.AS files right there. I decided to use Ant because neither FlashDevelop for Windows nor Eclipse for Linux seemto work for me.

Effectively Separate Content From Graphics?

Oct 14, 2009

I would like to completely separate the content (text,photo gallery,video files, etc) from the web graphics (interface).  What is the best way of accomplishing this?  The main reason for doing this is so that the client can quickly update the content as if he/she was editing a text document.  I want to avoid having to open the flash files in order to change content.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Effectively Remove A Loaded SWF From The Stage?

Mar 9, 2012

I can not figure out a proper coding to remove a loded SWF from the stage.Hre is my set up.I have a layout segmented into labeled section. In the section labeled "products" I have a layout consisting of product images acting as buttons which bring a user to another labeled section "prdctsPopUps"In the "prdctsPopUps" section I have placed an instance of LoaderMax placed into an mc container. Placing LoaderMax into an mc container automatically resolved an issue of clearing loaded SWFs from stage when I come back to "products" section.I specified the variable in the "products" section with the following set up:

var sourceVar_ProductsPopUps:String;
function onClickSumix1PopUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
sourceVar_ProductsPopUps="prdcts_popups/sumix1-popup_tl.swf ";

Actionscript :: Control The Fps In Adobe Flash Effectively

Feb 19, 2012

I am working on a splash page in Adobe Flash CS4. It is to be used in various flash works - differing in ActionScript versions and framerate. The animation itself contain multiple tweens, even nested ones. If I am to use it with a different framerate, I'll have to alter a lot of frames to make it work smoothly in the new fps.

What are the options I have to do this effectively? Is there a technique by which I can swicth to the animation's frame rate during it's playtime and switch back to the original fps once it is done?

Flash - Why MX Libraries Are In SWF

Nov 24, 2011

I have a pure AS3 project. I use Ant to build it. Here is a part of my ant script:
<target name="mxmlc">
<exec executable="${flex.home}/${mxmlc}" failonerror="true">
<arg line="-compiler.include-libraries=${lib}"/>
<arg line="-compiler.incremental=false"/>
<arg line="-compiler.optimize=true"/>
[Code] .....

The problem is that my resulting SWF is really big. When I checked what is inside I saw that it has mx.* libs from Flex. Why it is like this? How to kick mx.* from my SWF? In my code I don't use anything from mx.* library.

Loading Assets From Different Libraries

Sep 8, 2009

I currently have a "container SWF player" that loads SWFs externally and plays them.The sound file for the SWF is in the library of the container SWF player, because the player is using the duration of the sound file to determine how long the scrubber bar goes.The problem is, it sort of defeats the purpose of having a container SWF player if I have to create a different container SWF player file for each external SWF because there's a different sound for each external SWF.Is there a way to pull the sound file from the library of the externally loaded SWF into the container SWF player?So that depending on what external SWF is playing, it will pull the associated MP3 file from that SWF's library?

C# :: Vector Graphics Libraries Available In AS

Nov 16, 2010

I'm looking to build a website that has a flash interface and allows visitors to upload vector art in a number of file formats such as SVG, EPS and AI.

I have two rather large problems...
1) I need to load the original vector art, probably convert it to FLV and display it in my flash application.
2) After the user potentially loads a number of images, adds some text, rotates or transforms some elements, I need to save the resulting composition into a vector art format that I can print.

I'm not much of an AS developer...my experience is mostly in .NET/C# & C++. I'm looking for a good library or API that provides the functionality I will need to convert different image formats and save the results. How much of this can be done using Flash / AS...? How much in C#...?

ActionScript :: Support Using JavaScript Libraries?

Dec 20, 2011

I realize a JavaScript library like jQuery that is specific to the HTML / DOM wouldn't work nor make sense in a Flash ActionScript application. But what about other JavaScript libraries? I was reading that ActionScript is a superset of JavaScript / ECMAScript which is what got me wondering. If it wouldn't use JavaScript libraries "out of the box" could a JavaScript library be adapted relatively easily? Also, does ActionScript support XMLHttpRequest or have a rough equivalent?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Libraries In Multiple SWFs

Sep 21, 2006

I have a project that loads SWFs as "slides". I'm running into a problem where I have some very large SWFs that use shared resources within each other. I would prefer not to post my source (because there is a TON of it ...if you've worked with SCORM, you know), but basically, the project is setup to use a "master" SWF to load in children SWFs. Those children SWFs can be quite large due to one specific symbol in the libraries that each share. This symbol is about 5MB in size and is used in several of the "slides". I want to be able to load this symbol into memory and use it across all the slides that need it so the user doesn't have to download tons of 5+MB files.

I am able to create a movieClipLoader object and a container for the object and load the SWF that is just the symbol object I need to share. I am attempting to put it in the _global namespace for use later. When I do this though, the library seems to switch to this new loaded SWF (this shared object) and I cannot access the library objects from the parent slide. So, the slide that is using this shared symbol must load up, start to download the SWF for shared use, then it must be able to load objects from it's own library to continue on. Maybe I'm going about this all wrong, but when I have several SWFs that all use this shared symbol, and I have to compile that symbol into each SWF, it only hurts the user that has to download all these large SWFs.

At the moment I'm trying to make a game using Box2D and QuickBox2D but I'm having a problem at the moment because the Player character is actually a QuickObject I don't know how to construct a class that extends that.

For instance if I was just to create the object I want in the main constructor it would be something like this:

So how would I go about this?because I'm getting loads of problems one of which is the the 'World' variable can't be accessed within the Player Class.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Shared Libraries - Cached BUT If Add Another Element?

Jan 22, 2011

using shared libraries at the moment for a scalable e-learning course. All the elements are to be used over multiple screens. BUT if I have to add a new element to that published shared swf - then next time I access my learning program it will have to download the WHOLE NEW shared library - is that right? ie: defeating the purpose in the first place. So if that is true then the best idea would be to use separate shared libraries. ie: sharedLibraryMusic1.swf sharedLibraryMusic2.swf for newer mp3s etc...

Or is this nonsense. ie: A new updated shared library with a "little" new element would not cause the whole swf to be downloaded again??? This is so important as it can make or break the download speeds.

Flex :: Approaches / Libraries For Resize Dragging?

Jan 8, 2010

I'm currently working on a WYSISYG editor that allows the user to move, resize and rotate shapes by directly manipulating them. The resizing seems to be fairly complex when the shape is rotated. I got this working for non-rotated shapes, but it will take some trigonometric calculations to resize shapes that are rotated. The registration point is always is the middle of the rectangle because this makes rotating a lot easier. Before I start implementing this, I was wondering if anyone knew of any libraries or sample source code that does this, or could share some tips and tricks to calculate the transformations.

[Code]...

I attached a screenshot of what I'm trying to accomplish and another one that has some lines drawn onto it that should allow me to deduct the trigonometric calculations. The cross is the cursor.
