Actionscript 3 :: Automatically Activate The Browser's Vertical Scrolling When A Popup Is Too Large For The Screen?
Oct 27, 2011
I have a flash application that utilizes a lot of popup title windows that do not have parent containers. I'm having a problem when users with smaller resolutions try to use my application because the popup utility windows will often be too large. Note that I do not want to re-size the window as that would eliminate a lot of it's clarity and separation of menu bars and tool icons. I just want my application to detect if the window has a height or width property greater than that of the browser's view frame and then activate the respective scroll bar should it be needed.

I have my flash site working ok, but want the pop up browsers that are sized to pop up in the centre of the screen, instead of the bottom! Anyone know how to fix this? I'm using the following code on buttons:
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:CultWear=window.open('http://www.stevedawson.org.uk/cultweargallery.html','CulWea','width=1133,height= 425,left=425,top=1133,screenX=1133,screenY=425');C ultWear.focus();void(0);");
}
and this is the site so far.... [URL]

I am working on a Flash app that is 900x700 pixels. When viewed in misc. browsers at 1024x768, the browser chrome causes robs too much of the vertical space and the app appears in a window with a vertical scrollbar. Unacceptable.
The flash app will be launched via a link emailed to the viewers.
I'd like to avoid resizing the flash app and am wondering if there's a way to do the following via javascript, with no clicks involved:maximize the current browser window remove current window address bar and tabs / switch browser to full screen view (equivalent to pressing F11).
An alternative would be to resize the flash app vertically to match the browser canvas height to avoid scrolling. This may cause the app to become unreadable, so not the best approach in my case.
UPDATE: Seems that browser resizing and autoswitch to full screen won't work and neither will the flash app auto resize. What is the best approach then? And, some users may have browsers with toolbars or open a small browser window.
The only idea I have is to use javascript and display a message to users with small browser windows to pres F11 manually. The audience is executes and some may not even know what an F11 means...

This seems to be a very straight forward thing to do and there are loads of tutorials about the subject. None of them are helping me get this right though, and I can't for the life of me figure out what's wrong. I'm trying to create a simple Flash AS3 GUI component that has a vertical gradient. I create the sprite, and draw the gradient with beginGradientFill and a matrix with a 90 degree radian angle on it. If you look at this output, you see that its not creating a black to white vertical gradient.

I am trying to create a simple gui component that has a vertical gradient, simple enough right... I create the sprite, and draw the gradient with beginGradientFill and a matrix with a 90 degree radian angle on it; but it stops working if the sprite has a long width, below is an exmaple of what I mean:
package {
import flash.display.GradientType;
import flash.display.Shape;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.geom.Matrix;
[Code] .....
If I change
matrix.createGradientBox(800, 100, Math.PI*0.5, 0, 0);
to
matrix.createGradientBox(800, 100, Math.PI, 0, 0);
It works fine - but horizontally - why is it that applying 90 degrees the fill does not work?

I've pretty much finished my site... [URL]. The problem with this is that with someone who has a lower resolution, the movie tends to get cropped. Since I have the movie set at 100% width and height the scroll bars don't exist. I'm trying to make built in scroll bars in flash that will activate when the movie gets cropped as such. I only need them for a few pages. I'm not sure if I am going about this the easiest way..I know you can do it if it was just one movieclip but the site is alot more complicated than just one movieclip.
For skills_mc I have a class..
mc_skills.as
Actionscript Code:
package{
import flash.display.*;
import FluidLayout.*;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.StageAlign;
[Code] .....
It's throwing a ton of errors..

I have about 27 photos. They are all 250x188. I would like the work space to be 250x564 so that 3 photos display first and they keep scrolling from the bottom to the top continuously through all the photos and repeat. Could someone recommend the best way to do this in Flash CS4. I am totally new to this.

I am using mx:Tree (in Flex 4), and assigned a customised MXTreeItemRenderer for every items. As the TreeItemRenderer contains a list with tileLayout, which means the height of every row is variable. So I have to set the tree's "variableRowHeight to true. When I was testing the tree, everything went well. But when I was using the vertical scroller, I met some problems:
The scroll bar did not move to the position I want. When I was scrolling the content, the scroll bar sometimes scrolled to a unwanted position (e.g. the head of the tree). When there are more rows, the problem is more obvious.When I was scrolling the tree, the images were flicking all the time.

I am trying to create Vertical scrolling images. I found a tutorial using AS 3.0, used that, but made a couple of alterations - like I did not want the images centered on the stage and I added more images than what the tutorial showed. As a result I have several errors in the Actionscript.

I'm looking for a code that basically does: [URL] with vertical scrolling as well. I know there's [URL] which is great - but I can't use scrollRect because the movieclip I'm scrolling is dynamically refreshed with externally loaded content and resized with a zoom slider I made. The Kirupa one works well, except I need a Y, and I need its boundaries to be within a mask. The mask has a set size, while the content may change in size (due to the zoom slider).

I am working on a very minimal site that consists of a swf containing a vertical scrolling infinite menu that loads other swfs into the main timeline: [URL].I am building this in MX, and it is based on this tutorial: [URL]. I figured out how to change this to a vertical format that fit my needs. This is the actionscript I attached to the main menu movie clip:
onClipEvent (load) {
ycenter=600;
speed=1/10;
} onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var distance=_root._ymouse-ycenter;
_y+=(distance*speed);
if (_y > 0) _y=-2323;
if (_y < -2323) _y=0;
}
The swfs are sized large as the end result is a private site dealing mostly with clients using very large monitors. I am creating the swfs to be loaded in with Flash CS4, and they contain large images that have smoothing enabled. As I know nothing about Actionscript 3.0 and very little about 2.0, I am creating the main swf in MX as I am more familiar with it.
Anyway, what I need to know is:
1. How to add something to the code that will stop the timeline's scrolling where you left it when you roll off of it,
2. Any other vertical scrolling menus I can take a look at to compare this with?

I'm making a side-scrolling game, with a (theoretically) infinite background. I have a block engine that places the blocks on the bitmap canvas. Now here's the catch. I'm using the bitmapData.scroll() function. Now unless I clear the screen each time the character moves, it's going to leave ghost images of the border of the screen, like this picture: zanzlanz. tumblr. com/post/18857712784 If I clear the screen each time, then it generates a lot of lag (because it has to repaint the objects again). I'm a bit lost on how I can scroll without leaving streaks of the side of the screen and without repainting the entire screen.

In the past I've created a horizontal scrolling gallery but can't figure out how to switch the horizontal scrolling gallery to a vertical scrolling gallery. I know I need to change the positioning of the movie clips from horizontal to vertical just not sure what to change in the code.
what I would need to change in order for my horizontal scrolling gallery to become a vertical scrolling gallery?

digital_artwork.onRollOver = digital_artworkOver;
function digital_artworkOver() {

I have this banner that needs to have a several rows worth of paragraph text animate horizontally through it. Ideally, the text should also be possible to update from outside of flash. As for the scrolling text, working with that much text as one long row of letters doesn't seem feasible, so I'm wondering is there a standard way in Flash CS5 of working with large amounts of animated text? Not the user editable kind like text fields and such, but presentational text.
Obviously it's not efficient to have one long string of text that extends several screens beyond the display, as is the case now. Editing just one letter can take several seconds of scrolling as the string is currently over 3000 px wide, and it's not even all the text that's going to be in the final animation. It'd be great if it was possible to type that text through some web based cms, and have it automatically transferred to the Flash banner,
