I have an SWF file with only vector illustrations in it (no bitmaps). Is there a way to improve colour consistency across different monitors?Colour management is a very complex topic and the more I read about it the more confused I become. There's this thing called ICC profiles which are supposed to convert colours into device independent color spaces, but of what use is that?
View 2 RepliesI am parsing colour codes that I get from a Flex(Flash ActionScript) application, then creating HTML div elements with that same colour. My Problem: The colours are all only 8 digits long. So they cant be RGB colour values can they? What color value format are they in? If I can figure the format they are in I can convert them to RGB. Maybe the last/first digit signifies its 0. alpha value?
PS: Should I convert the colours to RGB or something else?
This is an example of the colour code values I getting from the flash application:
according to release notes in flashplayer 10.2 you can do fullscreen on multiple monitors. how can i trigger this behaviour?
View 1 RepliesI thought there was a simple way to make Flash content display full-screen on two monitors at once, but I can't seem to recall how to do it.
Searching on the topic is tough because so many people are talking about the ability to keep a full-screen video playing while working on another screen, which is not what I want. I need an app I'm developing at 2880 x 900 to be viewable full-screen across two monitors horizontally.
I've tried
stage.displayState = "fullScreen";
activate from a user click, but it fills only one screen.
I've tried it from within a projector and from a browser with allowFullscreen set to true, and using version 10.2 of the player.
How do I get the dimensions of the monitor the user is watching the video with if they have dual monitors? If I use this --
mc_videoDisplay.height = (Capabilities.screenResolutionY - 26);
mc_videoDisplay.width = Math.floor(mc_videoDisplay.height * 16 / 9);
it's only using the primary monitor so it's all out of whack if they're watching on the extended monitor.
I would like to ask how do I extend my display on 2 moniters with flash in full screen? My stage size is 1600*600, I want the stage to be extended and display in both moniters. Each moniter resolution is 800*600. Red portion should be displayed on moniter 1, and Blue portion should be displayed on moniter 2. Now, both portions are displayed on moniter 1. Nothing at moniter 2. link to pic: [URL]
View 8 RepliesI am using the FlvPlayback class to show movies. The full screen feature works since I am just calling the method defined in the class. My issue is whenever I make it full screen on a computer that has 2 monitors, the full screen flash player always ends up in the primary monitor. When that happens, I notice that the location where the flash player was in the other monitor is empty. How do I prevent this from happening and force the video player to remain in the monitor it was originally in?
View 7 RepliesI want to create a flash document that allows me to change the colous of an image using a colour palette of my own. I am a complete beginner and have no idea where to start this, hence i would need to know what to do and how to do it. I basically want the image to be a simple 2d image that i will create using different layers in photoshop and import them into flash, the layer images will all be one colour so the colour of the whole layer changes. so the colour palette will be on the side of this and when i click on an image and then a colour the image changes to the colour i clicked.

View 5 RepliesI'm looking for a solution to play HD videos on a multimonitor OSX environment for a projector/desktop application. It could be one huge video, or a video split in parts.So far I've been using Flash StageVideo successfully to play 1080p and 720p on single monitors. This works great with flash projectors. The problem with flash projectors is you can't span multiple monitors, or multiple windows. I still haven't tried opening multiple projectors, because I wouldn't know how to position each projector in a different monitor consistently.
In Adobe AIR you can have multiple windows and control their position, but AFAIK you can't use StageVideo to decode videos with the GPU... and using the classic Video class is really out of the question.
With C++ there are multiple frameworks (cinder/openFrameworks) but AFAIK opening multiple windows, or spaning multiple monitors is not such a good idea because of bad performance. I stil haven't figured out if it's possible or even a good idea to open one app per monitor and control it's position.
I have a flash project that I published to an .exe so it can run on the desktop. I also used the code:
Quote:
fscommand("fullscreen", true);
This is to make it launch in fullscreen. However the stage dimensions are 1100 * 800px and when you lunch this on certain computers with lower res monitors, some of the stage area is cut off. I found that you can always right click and select the "show all" option and it will scale down to fit the monitors screen. How can I make this do that automatically without having to right click and selecting the "show all" button.
I'm working on a stand alone application that need to streach across 3 monitors verticaly but without the windows border, title bar, or the toolbar.I'm working in CS5 and can't find any settings when publishing out to the exe and if you try to fullscreen it, it will lock to only one monitor.
View 1 RepliesHas anyone had this issue before, say I have a movieclip called options, and want it to always stay down in bottom right corner, simple, in the resize event just update the sreen size available and reset the x and y of options accordinging, with whatever offsets needed.

View 3 RepliesIs there a way of setting a swf so that it doesnt go huge when viewed on larger monitors? I want my site to scale in size, but when i viewed it on a 27" monitor it just looked way too big really (text looks silly big), even scaling it down can then be too small on regular monitors, is there a happy medium ?

View 2 Repliesi am currently developing a standalone video application that will interact with our backend database and display the proper video, video title, video description and color scheme that you choose.Everything's working hunky dory, until I asked some of cohorts to see if they could break it before I show it off to the world. On the very first try, when my colleague went to full screen, the video was distorted, cut off by the bounds of the monitor, and not perfectly centered as it has been performing on my monitor.
And then it hit me... He was opening the browser in one of his computer's monitors, bringing the browser to the other monitor (we all have a dual monitor thing going on here), and THEN clicking the full screen button.I noticed that when you refresh the page, the variables I get to determine the fullscreen dimensions are being set, but NOT on EnterFrame.
After quickly changing this little glitch, I saw that the variables are still not being changed when you drag your browser window from one monitor to the other (hopefully they are set at two different resolutions, otherwise it defeats the purpose of even checking for this)how I can get my Flash application to recognize when it has entered into a new resolution.
I need to change all the elements in my movie that have the color X and change their color to color Y. Is it possible to have this in AS? like, if i press one button all the elements that have the color black (graphic, text, background, etc) change their color to yellow?

In the 4 * 5 array that makes up a colour matrix, what do ALL the values do? All I have found is basically this:
0, 0, 0, 0, 0 <-R
0, 0, 0, 0, 0 <-G
0, 0, 0, 0, 0 <-B
0, 0, 0, 0, 0 <-A
What does each thing do?

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to work out how to change text colour in Flash 4, but nothing I've tried will do it.What I have is some text that the user edits, then a button for the colour. When they hit the button, the text changes colour.I've tried changing the alpha levels and visibility levels of the text boxes, putting masks over the boxes that move into place when the right button is pressed, and a bunch of different approaches.

View 2 RepliesAnyway for some reason when i test scene the box comes up showing my flash fine but when i go and locate the .SWF in the folder that all my flash fla and swfs are then for some reason its only a graphic clip and movieclip animation that displays and the rest of the background is the background colour. I checked this by first changing it to black and preview. To which the background changed black and then did the same and changed the background colour to blue and the same thing happened, the background in the swf changed to blue aswell. I have no actionscript in the scene and the majority of the things are just art besides a graphic clip the movie clip animation.
View 5 RepliesI've been trying to open a jpeg image in Actionscript 3.0 which opens without any issues however part of the lettering in the image appears to display as a different colour as if Flash doesn't recognise the colour in the image. The strange thing is that it opens in photoshop as the correct colour but not in Flash. Would the colour scheme that the image uses perhaps need to be added to Flash database of colours?
