Actionscript 3 :: Brightcove - Initialize Function Not Fired?
Feb 24, 2012
I'm trying to figure out the basics of an flash action script project. I downloaded a plugin (from Brightcove). As far as I can tell, it only has 2elevantiles.ightcovePlayerAPI.swc - the brightcove player api which you can import into your projectCaptionPlugin.as - just a small script that's supposed to load a dfxp.xml file can't seem to get the function initialize() to fire in CaptionPlugin.as. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Here's how I set up my project in Adobe Flash CS4:start a flash actionscript 3 projectSave project as CaptionPlugin.flaGo to properties panel and fill the class field with the word CaptionPluginGo to Publish Settings>Flash (tab)>settings>Library Path and includedSaved all my changesWent to Debug>Debug movie

I would like to know if it is possible to initialize a movie attachment with a function ...
Thus:
Code:
function myFunction(){
this._alpha = 0;
}
this.attachMovie("new","new_mc",1,{myFunction});
I know that I could put _alpha:0 into the INIT value (But in reality I have something a little more complicated up my sleeve)

After I finish a tween, I would like to change my variables, then only my mouse movement would have start to run some functions, but it seems like the onComplete function fired immediately messing all the things out. Isnt't that onComplete function will only run after an action is done? Any other way to like after running the Tween.to line of code, only it will ran the 2nd line changing a variable?
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, movevC);
public static function showSection(obj:DisplayObject):void {;
var sect2X=((obj.stage.stageWidth/2)+(obj.stage.stageWidth/4))+lg.width;
var sect2Y=((obj.stage.stageHeight/2)-(obj.stage.stageHeight/4))+lg.height;
switch (obj.name) {

I currently have a working Brightcove Smart Player implementation, with Flash as the default and an HTML5 fallback where Flash is not supported (read: iOS). I would like to reverse this: prefer HTML5 video, and use Flash as the fallback.Is this possible, and if so, how? Brightcove seems to have entirely missed the point of providing an HTML5 option by using it as the fallback instead of the preferred format.Additionally, although Brightcove announced plans to support WebM as well as H.264 18 months ago, it seems that the HTML5 player still only supports H.264. Firefox can't (and likely will never) support H.264 for patent (and, IMO, ideological) reasons. Firefox is used far too widel

I need to get this Brightcove player working in a flash file, having never worked with AS3 and Classes before I'm at a total loss as to what to do. If its possible (and i know this rather cheeky to ask) could you upload an example .fla I'm thinking everything I need to know is in the code below but flash has moved on somewhat since i used it a year ago!!

I'm following the instructions here URL... to learn how to modify a closed caption plugin for the bright cove video player.I started by downloading the closed caption module code here:URL...After I downloaded it and unzipped it, I modified the file src/ClosedCaptionsModule.as.Now the instructions tell me to compile this into a SWF file.I looked at all the top menu items in Adobe Flash CS4, but I don't see any Build or Compile command.The Debug movie and Test movie actions are grayed out.

I have 2 buttons.There is a MOUSE_OUT event for button 1 and a MOUSE_OVER event button 2.The buttons are right next to each other.Each event leads to a different frame.When the mouse moves from button 1 to button 2, both events get fired, first MOUSE_OUT and then MOUSE_OVER - but the MOUSE_OVER event cuts off the MOUSE_OUT event and doesn't give it a chance to fully execute. To be more clear, for each event, a function is called which has "gotoAndPlay(x)"(x is some different frame number for each)The gotoAndPlay() will go to lets say frame 437 and play exactly 2 frames.But when MOUSE_OVER is fired and it calls my function, it calls the gotoAndPlay() BUT it doesn't get to play the 2 frames.It gets cut off because the MOUSE_OUT gets fired which calls a function which then calls gotoAndPlay() and plays a different 2 frames. How can I allow the first 2 frames to fully play and then the last 2 frames?

I am having trouble wiring up an event listener to a fl.transitions.Transition.
Is it possible to somehow view all the events an object fires? That way I could check I am using the correct event (and possible view better ones to use).

I have a rollOver event on a pop-up button in flex. I want that the menu is opened on rollover. But if the user accidentally goes with the mouse over the component the menu should not be displayed. So on rollOver I want to start a timer (wait for half second) and than check if the user is still on the pop-up button (rollOut was not fired).
My example code so far:
private function rollOverMenu(event:Event){
rollOutNow = false;
var shortDelay:Timer = new Timer(3000);
[code]...
The Alert "time is up" is never shown, any ideas why my timer event does not work?

EDIT: In fact, it is working now (behavior changed with updated TweenMax...?!), BUT still, when I zoom with mouseclick, everything goes well. When I zoom with a keypress, the image is resizing... but if the image is not centered, the registration point (set to center of the image) - the image is moving - for no reason...
Different results with the SAME function, no parameters etc.

So I have a button that I have attached 2 EventListeners to. It is listening for a MOUSE_OVER and a MOUSE_OUT.
PHP Code:
ECM_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, RollOverECM);ECM_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, RollOverECM);
As you can see, both events call the same function. In this function, I would like to create a new instance of a library object and then hide it, depending on the mouseEvent that fires:
PHP Code:
var ECMBox:MovieClip = new managerBox(); addChild(ECMBox);
On the MouseOUT, I would then like to remove that from the stage as such:
PHP Code:
removeChild(ECMBox);
I did it this way instead of firing two seperate functions because the second function has no reference to the object created in the MOUSE_OVER function and therefore cannot remove it. My question is this: Is there a way to determine in the function that is called, what mouse event called it? If I could get that, then I could set up a condition to create and object or hide the object, depending on what event was fired. Something like this:

I've just been working on a splash page/main menu for my game, and when tracing a value in the function fired when added to stage, I noticed it was tracing twice.After a process of elimination I found it was caused by some text inside a movieclip in the library.
This is literally my first time using MovieClips in AS3, as I generally just render everything manually, but I used one to knock up some quick text.When converting the text to vector graphics, the problem disappeared. Still the same MC being created and added, yet no problem. It was caused by the text.Doing away with MC's completely, embedding the required font and just using manual TextFields is my solution.Tested on 2 different FP10 builds by the way, same behaviour on both.

I have made an image upload manager. I made it initially in Flash Develop as an AS class. I need to convert it to a component in Flash Builder 4.5 It works absolutely fine as a .swf, but I can't figure out how to make the URL request work in Flash Builder. This is what I have between the tags:[code]I didn't put the mxml controls but there is a browse button (id="selects_btn") and a label (id="label_txt") under the button that displays various status messages.I tried adding the init function to the component's creationComplete event. I receive and error saying access of a null object.

I want to handle some variables BEFORE Frame 1 in the action script, because I need to initialize a variable and set it to 0 only once. Later on in the animation, I will be coming back to Frame 1 and I don't want it set to 0 again, only the first time.

So how do you apply some ActionScript code to when the movie first loads?

<mx:Label id="myLabel" dataChange="{trace('changed!!');}" />
I change the text in the above label:
myLabel.text = "new text";
But nothing is traced as it's supposed to.
Am I using a wrong event? I thought dataChange is fired when text in the label is changed.

I have 2 files, 1 to dispatch the event and 1 to receive it (of course in addition to the event class itself).
I've done this before with both dispatching and receiving files being mxml, but this time the dispatching file is an actionscript class, and it's not working this time. Is it different for actionscript classes?
Here's a dumbed down version
The dispatching class dispatches the event as soon as it's created.
public class ASClass extends UIComponent{
public function ASClass(){
dispatchEvent(new MyEvents(MyEvents.FIRE_EVENT));
}
}
in my main mxml app, I instantiate the ASClass which automatically dispatch the event as soon as it's created and the main mxml app should receive back.
protected function appCComplete(event:FlexEvent):void{
addEventListener(MyEvents.FIRE_EVENT, gotEvent);
var asClass:ASClass = new ASClass();

I'm (slowly) learning Flex 4 and working on skinning a custom component that extends SkinnableComponent. The component is all in ActionScript and essentially looks like this:
[Code]...
The issue I'm having is on NULL REFERENCES in the Constructor for the various SkinParts, because they're not created yet. I'm trying to find out when is the best time to access them to assign their .text values. I know I can override partAdded() and add the .text value as each part is added, but I'd rather just listen for some magic event that is dispatched when they're all available.I'm not sure whether or not it matters, but the accountName, accountNumber variables are assigned by using a repeater with a dataProvider on the host component. I'm not sure if that too has something to do with when the data is available to the AccountSummary component - which may also needed to be waited on. I was able to successfully use FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE to assign all my .text values to the SkinParts, but is that the right event/best practice?

I am trying to send a simple HTTP message from Flex to C# server, but it seems that I am getting tow calls, first is the real one and the second is an empty one.
Why is that and how can I handle it?
This is my C# code:
TcpListener listener = new TcpListener(IPAddress.Any, 9400);
listener.Start();
Console.WriteLine("Server started");
[Code].....
I been trying to send a true HTTP response a notice another thing, the second call is coming without waiting for the first call, if I am putting the response thread to short sleep(100 milliseconds in my test) then I am getting the second call before I been able to response for the first one.

I've got this weird problem with Flash in a embed browser in an ASP.NET Windows Application. I've got this Flash Movie that runs in the Windows application and has got a couple of comboboxes. I've added an eventlistener to such a box, but his change event isn't triggerd on some computers. When I click on the combobox it opens up, but when I click on an item in the combobox it closes before he could trigger the change event.
The weird part is that this occurs on some computers, on others it works as it should. And when I load the swf directly in the browser the comboboxes work all the time. So it has something to do with the Windows Application and Flash. All the tested computers have the Flash plugin version 9 and higher (needed for my movie) installed.

ok this seems to look like it should work.. but for some reason the Event.COMPLETE listener for the loader is not getting fired..
does anyone see something that I missed..
i put in trace statements in to see where its not getting to..
I verified this so far..
- the constructor function does appear to add the even listener to the loader.
- Unit3DPreview.load() function gets called (from the parent class) and receives the _path string properly..
- the loader does have an Event.COMPLETE listener at the time of the loader.load() call..
- the renderAnimation listener function never gets fired off.. even though the listener has been added..
there is no IO error.. the image is in the correct location.. I know this because if I remove it .. I get an IO error..
one thing is that there is an instance of this class already placed inside a library symbol that is associated to another class that passes a bunch of data .. the preview image path being one part of it.
not sure if having it be already existing vs me creating it via code would make a difference .. that is something I have not tried yet.

I'm using a ScrollPane to contain a listing of sentences that sometimes have links in them. When the user clicks the links it does something.
When I don't put these inside of the ScrollPane the links work. When I put them in there apparently the ScrollPane is blocking the MouseEvents, or maybe it doesnt really register them since I don't know how setting the content works (if it adds the content as a child or draws it as a Bitmap inside or what)

setting a rectangle movieclip instance's width to 20 at the very start, before the ENTER_FRAME function is fired, but the width remains 20 throughout. I've tried different methods, here are two examples.Here's a simplified, short example:
Actionscript Code:
var rect_mcW:Number = rect_mc.width; //store original widthrect_mc.width = 20; //then set the rectangle's width to 20rect_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, growRect);function
[code]....
Ok, so the rect_mc's width remains 20 for each ENTER_FRAME event, even though the event listener function should grow it, but doesn't.One other way I tried was wrapping the 20 width inside a function:
Actionscript Code:
// opening statements omitted for brevity//first call to addEventListener:rect_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, init_width); //on first
[code]....
this second example yields the same result, the rect_mc width remains 20 even Though I thought the event listener that calls the function that sets it to 20 is removed first thing in the second event listener.
So, I assume it's because the code is read from top, and the code that sets width to 20 gets read and executed over and over. But still, shouldn't the growing part also take place over and over? What I want obviously is to store the original width, but start the animation with a width of 20, but just once.
