differencePercentage = Math.round(((Pay.init / Pay.current) * 100) - 100);
and that gives me the difference in percent between initial and current pay, but it's reversed. When it's positive i.e. pay is above the initial value it says -X%, and when it's below it says X%.
I have an ActionScript project set up using the Flash Builder IDE. Using the Flex 4 compiler to compile it. At the top of my application class, I have:
[SWF(width="100%", height="100%")]
public class MediaPlayer extends MovieClip {
This is not acceptable to the compiler to do a release (it throws errors saying it can't parse the width/height values). Pretty annoying. I've tried to do things the "right" way, but none of the following work:
[Code]...
So the width and height attributes are being explicitly set to numbers here. I don't know much about the 'scale' attribute; maybe it is coming in to play here? And, to be clear: it will work as expected if I set the [SWF] meta tag to have width "100%" and height "100%"... so it seems like it actually is preferring the compiled arguments over the browser environment. Perhaps there are other settings I am missing?
I have a psd that is to be the background of a flash site that i'm working on. I've tried every combination of exporting from photoshop and flash but the end result (in the browser) is always significantly brighter.Does anyone know what the best prossess for keeping the colour of imported raster content accurate in swf while keeping the size moderate?
View 1 RepliesI have a simple movie of a person - torso, arms, legs, each on a separate layer. I'm adding a walk cycle and use tweens to move the arms and legs. This works fine when I export to an swf. But when I group and try to export to a movieclip, the arms jump way up. This seems like a simple problem of adjusting coordinates, origins, etc. But I'm kind of a newbie, so does someone have a suggestion for me? How do I export to a movieclip and have it playback the same as when exporting to a swf?

View 1 RepliesI have an issue with links in a text box which are pulled in from a xml file.The problem is that when I have the antialias setting set to Advanced the links will shift their position to the left when you hover over them. If i turn the antialias setting off or to Normal the problem is fixed, but the text doesn't look as nice.
Here are the settings for my textbox.
Code:
bodyText.defaultTextFormat = txtFmt;
bodyText.styleSheet = cssStyle;
bodyText.embedFonts = true;
bodyText.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;

As mentioned in this post KeyLocation.LEFT and KeyLocation.RIGHT only work a Windows PC, not on a Mac. I found that out the hard way during a presentation today :X
Is there any fix to determine which shift key is pressed on a Mac?
I was just wondering is there a way to say like if BOTH shift and space are down gotoAndStop(3);?
View 1 Replieswhen a moive clip is clicked in my program it's instance is saved in a var _root.dis_one. My code makes the movie clip move when the shift key isn't down according to the arrow keys, and it is supposed to resize the clip if the shift key is down _root.dis_one is storing the proper var, but i am having a trouble with the resizing part. It will rezise a pre-maid movie clip, but it won't resize my dynamic movie clips. is there a certain way to rezise a dynamic MC?

So i am building a site for a client, and in it i have incorporated an automatically cross-fading background made of large photos.Wheneve they cross fade programatically my CPU gets WORKED!
I am using
Code:
if (this.photo1.imageholder1._alpha<100-this.fadeSpeed) {
this.photo1.imageholder1._alpha += this.fadeSpeed;
}
as the fading command. Is it just a characteristic of flash that it HATES to do ALPHA changes?
I broke apart all JPGs and converted them to symbols.And they all have correct X & Y coordinates.But while tweening the JPGs shift a tiny bit. Anyone know how to stop the JPGs doing the jiggle shift error?(I've seen it before, and thought I could fix it by breaking apart the JPGs and making symbols out of them, but the JPGs still have that quiver bug now)

How can I pop or shift more than one element of an array in the same time? I have been searching, and I can't find the answer anywhere. My new project is to pop or shift 3 element of an array of let's say of 100 elements, and with a click of a button display them into a textfield having in mind the date factor. If today I click the button, it'll give me the same numbers, all the day; but when tomorow i'll click the button, it will give me another set of numbers all the day long, and so on. Do I make sense and continue, or I just forget about it ? I have the button, the array, how to acces the date, and flash CS 5.5. All I need I believe, is How to pop or to shift more than one element.

If I encode all colors into one single float value (RGB) as:
//Each Channels are from 0 - 255
red << 16 | green << 8 | blue;
How can I retrieve those color channels back in AGAL? There doesn't seem to be any bitwise operators.
I have attached and sample file with problem that show when you hover over the red link it shift the text. It only happens when I use antiAliasType = advance or my text field set to readability in combination to external or internal StyleSheet.

View 13 RepliesI've looked in the documentation and found nothing. I'm in MX 2004 pro.
here's my code:
Code:
var arrayName = "name";
trace(arrayName);
var numberofPics = arrayName.length;
[code]....
when it gets to the 'trace("shifted = " + shifted)' it comes back as "shifted = " when it gets to the 'trace("ordered pic is " + shifted)' it comes back as "ordered pic is " so is it just that a variable can't be used as the name of an array when using shift and push?
How do you shift the colors of a bitmap image, with a red/yellow cloud, so that red becomes orange, then yellow, then orange, then red again? The yellow should go trough the same process, but start and end with yellow. Same with all the other colors in between.Kind of like when you play with the hue-setting in photoshop, but instead of looping trough the whole spectrum, it only loops trough red>orange>yellow>orange>red.

Say I have a video tutorial. This tutorial is one MovieClip we'll call oneMC (with text, movieclips, and sprites within it).I have a color picker that allows the viewer to change the background color.Any ideas on how to shift the color(s) of all the nested objects once this happens? I need everything to contrast with the background color. (hence black text wouldn't disappear on a black background).Changing the blend mode of oneMC to Invert. This works except ALL nested clips then have the same color. No good.I changed the .color attribute of oneMC to a tint of the background color's opposite (for anyone curious as to how you get it, subtract the user's selected hexadecimal color from 0xFFFFFF). This is ok, but not ideal. Colors appear washed out.Changing the hue. This works on everything but black objects/text.I don't want to resort to colorTransforming each individual child because the EnterFrame requisite is too cumbersome. I really need an elegant solution to keep processes down.

I have discovered a bug with KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP keyLocation values for the shift keys. how to reproduce this:
1.when no other keys are down the value for left shift is 1 and for right shift is 2 for KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN and KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP
2. when you have pressed shift and then press another key - when releasing shift the value for left and right become 0.
There is absolutely no reason why these values should report anything other then what they initially reported on key down as each key fires its own event with details for each , regardless of any key combinations. Im using cs5.5 windows 7 basic.
I know that you can use the context menu using a right-mouse-click in a control to choose to cut, copy, paste, etc. I've also noticed that you can use the windows keyboard shortcuts CTRL-C for Copy and CTRL-V for Paste.
Windows supports native CTRL-Insert (for copy) and SHIFT-Insert (for paste).
However, within Flex, it seems these do not appear to work. Has anyone been able to either allow these keyboard events?

I've recently taken Krilnon's tutorial on interactive image panning, and have a need for more complexity. My image to be panned (relative to user's mouse movement) has several 'hot spot' buttons placed within. Each hot spot, when clicked, is to smoothly zoom and shift within the mask, with pertinent info displayed next to each, once zoom and shift is complete. almost like I'm making a motion tween, where the final position is known, but the start position is wherever the BG image is when the user clicks the nested button. I need to determine the x-position at the moment of click of the button (different for each button), and then, I think, use a simple-math "stagger-step" method of moving and scaling, until I've reached my final dest. here's the link to the tutorial I originally referenced:Url...
View 8 RepliesAnyone know of a way to shift the first line of a single input line down so that it doesn't crowd the top edge of a text field? I could use a background sprite and have a textField positioned over the background, but I'd like to avoid this if possible. This is for fp9, not 10 so subscript won't help me.
It appears like TextLineMetrics are read only? Leading won't shift the first line and blockIndent only works on left/right margins?
just can't understand why Adobe has not corrected this very basic bug since ages. So, the thing is Windows users tend to love, GOT USED TO using CTRL+INSERT and SHIFT+INSERT for copy and paste operations.Yyyeeas I know, that under Keyboard shortcuts I can define my own shortcuts, but the real problem is, that even after the Shortcut manager eats shift insert as a paste hotkey, it just fails to function.CTRL INSERT works like a charm, but SHIFT INSERT as Paste DOES NOT.AAARRRGGHHH. ADOBE PLEASE CORRECT THIS ERROR TO ALLEVIATE THE PAIN!
