View 3 RepliesI've got a custom class that extends the Button UIComponent. I'm trying to override the drawEmphasized() function and a few public get/set functions. I get "1020: Method marked override must override another method." for each thing I try to override. The SWF that uses the custom button will compile and work, but I don't know if the failure is creating some of the strange behavior I see. The errors appear when I drag a component onstage, or save the FLA. This seems related:

View 1 RepliesI have a TextArea component with a lot of content (images+text) - the content is coming from a xml file.. i need to print the textarea content and when i do - it is printing just the visible content area with scrollbar-is there anyway i can print the entire TextArea content using a print button on my flash file- im using AS2.
View 1 RepliesI have a several chart components that I have created in Flex. Basically I have set up a special UI that allows the user to select which of these charts they want to print. When they press the print button each of the selected charts is created dynamically then added to a container. Then I send this container off to FlexPrintJob.
i.e.
private function prePrint():void
{
var printSelection:Box = new Box();
[Code]....
I have seen some examples on the adobe site that add the container to the application but don't include it in the layout. This looks like the way to go.
i.e.
printSelection.includeInLayout = false;
addChild(printSelection);
I have a print button with this code in it:
Code:
var pj:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
var printOptions:PrintJobOptions = new PrintJobOptions();
[code].......
Is there any way to print the contents of a textfield or string using the pring command in AS?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to create a print button on the last frame that will allow the user to print just that frame. I've tried using the printjob object, but all that I can get to happen is print a blank sheet of paper. Here is the code that I have so far:

{
var printJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();

View 3 RepliesI am trying to make a print button that will print the contents of a mc...this mc basically holds a dynamically drawn floorplan which can be zoomed and panned...I want to be able to print the contents of the mc, and only what is viewable in the mc at the time of the print...so if you are zoomed in, all that prints are the actual objects visibly seen in the mc...I think it may be with the print command using bmovie but I have no idea how to assign a #b lable to the frame.

I am not able to print more than 5 pages in one go. I want to print almost 12 pages in one print job. I am creating the movieclips of each page by adding the dynamic data in to it and store in an array.

View 8 RepliesI have a component "child" which has a cancel button. Now this component is placed in a state called "newChildComp" I also have another component called "parent". In the parent component, i have a button that dispatches an event. Here is the event code:
[Code].....
so, basically,i am checking to see if the cancel button component in the Child component, while i am still in the parent Compoent, was clicked, if it was clicked, call the cancelButtonHandler. The problem is by the time the addNewChild handles the event, that cancel button was still null. My question is how do i solve this without using the itemCreationPolicy on the cancel button?
is there any way to put scroll of tree component in left side of component or creating a custom scrollbar for tree component
View 13 RepliesI am testing interaction between two swf's on one web page so that I can understand how it all works before starting development.
I have two classes: the actual program (called AdminTool) and a navigation swf (called Navigation).
Here is my code for the actual tool:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Sprite;
[Code]....
so this is executing the method's from the first swf based on the button pressed... or at least it is supposed to...
So when I load the page, both swf's appear and it looks like the buttons are taking the click event, but nothing is happening on the AdminTool swf.
Two questions:
What am I doing wrong?Is there a better way to test this sort of thing? (Where I can get trace messages, etc)
I am trying to make a file upload program using as3 and amfphp. Instead of using the upload method I am instead calling an amfphp function and passing the filereference.data as one of the paramaters. This works well and good, however, i have no way to track the progress of the file upload, other then when it completely finishes uploading. I've decided to chunk up the bytearray in flash before i pass it so that i can get more progress information during the upload. The problem is when I try to take the data from filereference and put it into a bytearray it gives me an End of file was encountered error.

View 5 RepliesI've built controllers for the application which are defined in the Document class while the get & set methods are in the appropriate class. I find they become very screen real-estate intensive once you have more than 10 methods so i was wondering if anyone could let me know a way for writing them which has one function and sets and gets all the properties. heres some of them which define all the height,width, color,stroke,fill,tint of a drawn rectangle.

I'm extremely new to Flash and AS3. I used code snippets in CS5.5 to load an external swf from a main swf. Later I will have 10 swfs to load each with its own button in the main swf. It loads beautifully on top of the main swf. In the external swf I made a button to close and return to the main swf, so the user can then select another button. However I've tried various methods to unload and I have run into two problems. First, the close button does not work, and second if I add code to the close button it screws up the external swfs code. The stop at the first frame does not work and it plays through without the swfs other buttons working. Here is the code to load from the main swf:

View 1 RepliesThe question is how could I stop a method being called twice, where the first call has not "completed" because its handler is waiting for a url to load for example?
I have written a flash client which interfaces with a java server using a binary encrypted protocol (I would love to not have had to re-invent the whole client/server object communcation stack, but I had to encrypt the data in such a way that simple tools like tamper data and charles proxy could not pick them up if using SSL).The API presents itself to flas as an actionscript swf file, and the API itself is a singleton. the api exposes some simple methods, including:
login()
getBalance()
startGame()
endGame()
Each method will call my HttpCommunicator class.HttpCommunicator.as (with error handling and stuff removed):
public class HttpCommunicator {
private var _externalHalder:function;
public function communicate(data:String, externalHandler:APIHandler):void {
// do encryption
[code]...
Will the second call trounce the first calls communicator variable? i.e. will it behave as if its static, as there is onlyone copy of the API object?If say there was a button on the GUI which had "update balance", and the user kept clicking on it, at the same time as say a URLLoader complete event hander being called which also cals the apis getBalance() function (i.e. flash being multithreaded).
In Flash CS4, I've got a project that's working with a lot of XML. Previously, it's all been working fine, but recently I'm getting warnings like this when trying to compile:
Warning: 3594: toXMLString is not a recognized method of the dynamic class XML.
Warning: 3594: appendChild is not a recognized method of the dynamic class XML.
The lines of code that these errors refer to are:
stream.writeUTFBytes(currentXML.toXMLString());
and
currentXML.appendChild(marker.getXML());
"stream" is a FileStream object and "currentXML" is an XML object. "marker" is an instance of my own class, which I have imported, but I'm pretty sure that's not related.As I've said it's only happening now. I don't see anything in my code that could have changed it. Even if I turn the changes into comments, I still get errors.In addition to these two I am also getting other warnings, although all of them concern a method "not being recognized" in the XML class.I am using Flash Pro CS4 and am coding on the first frame of the timeline, as opposed to in a Document Class. Oh, and I'm making an AIR app, not a Flash Player one.
I'm loading an external AS3 SWF using the Loader class but i need to access a method inside the loaded SWF. how can i do this?
View 1 RepliesI'm new to AS3. I've got two classes.
damnMoles.as and startBtn.as
The damnMoles class uses a method called randomPlay();
ActionScript Code:
public function randomPlay():void {
this.gotoAndPlay("moleLabel"+randomNumber(1, 18));
}
Which basically allows the looped mole animation to start from various points in its timeline. I could probably use a different method to do this using an interval variable, but I originally coded this in AS2.0 and I want to update it, to see how this are different.
damnMoles class is attached to 6 mrMole# instances on the timeline.
Originally I used code on the main stage timeline to start the animation of the moles.
ActionScript Code:
startBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startClick);
function startClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
mrMole1.randomPlay();
}
This works fine, however, I would like to refrain from timeline code and use .as files. My startBtn class looks like this, but I get the error:
1120: Access of undefined property mrMole1.
ActionScript Code:
package com{
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Stage;
[Code] .....
So, how does this work? When I want to use a method from another class that has multiple instances on the stage?
there is an SWF file where we used its methods using JavaScript as an reference in HTML.now we want to make an FLASH app & have an SWF as an component where use all that methods in.since Im new here, I need ur comments how can I do it step-by-step.i know JavaScript but new in ActionScript.I use SWF in my JavaScript asCode:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("movie.swf", "mymovie", "200", "100", "8", "#336699");

I've written a pre-loader for my game, it uses Loader, URIRequest and LoaderInfo to display a bytes left/total counter as the main game SWF loads - this all works fine.
However what then happens is that the main SWF constructor is called, so the game starts running "in the background" while the pre-loader finishes off.
I moved the 'start game' code from the constructor into a different function but I'm now left with the issue of how can I actually tell the main game SWF to start?
You can't do loader.content.go() (where go() is the function I want to call).
How can I access methods of a loaded SWF? Or is there another way? I tried dispatching a custom Event from the pre-loader, but the game SWF just never heard it - but is this the right way to go about things?
I really want to pass some bits of data from the pre-loader into the main game SWF too, but until I can figure out how to make them both talk I'm totally stuck! Is there a way the game SWF could reference any variables set by the preloader?
