Flash :: Css - Firefox Putting Gap / Margin Under Header?
Mar 31, 2011
I have a flash header on my site - nothing crazy, just a short clip. It works in safari and opera on the mac and all IE versions on PC. It will not work properly on firefox on either PC or Mac. Firefox seems to be putting a gap of 10-20px under the flash I have looked up many fixes for this as it seems to be a known problem. I have seen people say it's because the "object" element it treated like letters in FF, so it allows room for the "tails" on a G and Y etc (not sure if I explained that well enough, hopefully you get the idea). I have tried margin:0; padding:0; line-height:0; font-size:0;
float:left; vertical-align:middle; and clear;both; - not at the same time, I have tried many combinations and got most of these ideas from other threads/articles where people had found a solution. I have tried this CSS on an id attached to the object, on the element object and on the parent div - I just can't seem to fix it! Also, as a side note - I've noticed the flash looks good in IE6, IE7 but IE8 makes it looks awful - can anyone explain why or confirm that is what they see? Im a mac user so borrow a laptop to test, it would be good to hear if anyone else see's this problem.

I have a script, either through Greasemonkey or as a Chrome extension, on a page that contains a Flash application. That flash application sends out POST requests e.g. [URL].
Is it possible for the script running on that same page to capture the request header sent by the Flash code? Kind of like Tamper Data, Fiddler and the like do. EDIT: Just a little more info. I don't need to redirect or alter the request coming from the Flash application. I just to be able to read in the header and save that information in a variable in the user script / extension that is running on the same page.

I have a banner in actionscript 2, that posts to a URL, and gets a response back. The http header from that is then used to figure out if the posting was successful. This works like a charm i IE, but in Firefox and Safari, the Flash player shomehow interprets the HTTP header as a 0, no matter what the browser actually gets. My guess is that it's what's described here [URL]...

I have an .swf navigation carousel that is 650 pixels high, the bottom 200 pixels being reserved for the reflection of the carousel. The reflection is very subtle and is not considered important information, so we would like to remove vertical scrollbars when the window is high enough to fit the topmost 450 pixels, but not the reflection.
I tried to accomplish this by setting a margin-bottom: -200px to the flash <object> but this only made the container's height shrink 200 pixels, causing the background pattern to cut before the bottom of the page.the Flash itself is still taking up 650 pixels.
Is there some "proper" fix to this, other than hiding/showing the scrollbars actively using javascript?

I have to place a flash movie into an existing layout. It is replacing placeholder image of the same size. The DIV holding the image has a negative top margin. When the flash movie is placed in the same spot there is a gap at the top of the DIV equal to the amount of negative margin. I cannot seem to get the movie to move to the top of the DIV (FF3).

I'm made an Item class which extends the Sprite class, the Item class basically has a few checkmarks & labels at the moment.
Then what I try to do is run through a for loop of items and create Item classes that I want to place one after each other on the y-axis, so I'm reading the Item.height property to find the y of the next Item in the list.
The problem is for some reason there is always an extra 75 pixels added to the Sprite height at the bottom, no matter how many checkmarks and labels are in each Item class ( varying the height of the Item class ).
Any idea why this is being added and how it can be removed?I'm having trouble figuring this out, I tried dynamicly calculating and setting the Item.height property but when I do that the Sprite is simply cropped.

I need to display a word, inside a ractangle with black background, passed to a flash movie through flashvars. Something like: And the rectangle itself should be right aligned to the right margin of the flash movie and 100px from top. I tried two options but in both cases I have problems with defining that different padding inside the rectangle: Option 1:

Has anyone hear or seen anything like this happen before? BTW the website was created in Adobe Flash CS4/ AS 3.0 and published using Flash Player 10.

I am trying to figure out why some letters (like the norwegian Ã… (Ã…)) are cutted out in the middle of the top "o":
My code is this:
var titleFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
titleFormat.size = textSize;
// this is embedded font, and exported for action script, declared
titleFormat.font = myFontBold.fontName;
titleFormat.bold = true;
[Code] .....
So, I have tried different things like setting height hardcoded and bigger than text, but top us cutted again, I have tried with css but no success. Why the letter is not showed fully and why if I zoom in the swf (2-3 zoom ins) it shows up normal (and what i try to achieve) like this: I think it has to do with the topMargin, but unfortunately I didn't find something like that in as3 documentation.

When dealing with TextFields, Flash always adds some sort of margin/padding around the outside of your TextField, so that if you set the X and Y of your TextField to 0, then your text would still sit about +4 pixels in.
If you create a TextField and set 'border=true', you will see what i mean - the border is drawn right on the edge of the TextField, but the actual text itself sits within a padding of about 4 pixels.
Is there any way at all to get the text of a TextField to sit hard-up against the border?

how to remove what appears to be an invisible 20px margin within my actionscript 3 application, written using flex builder. When I add movieclips and set x = 0, they appear about 20px over from the left hand side of the screen. If I set their x = -20, then they appear flush with the left side of the app. Is there any way to get around this/remove this margin?
In the attached picture, the green rectangle is at x = 0, yet it is not flush with the left hand side of the app.

i created my own Button which simply extends from Sprite.Its able to show 3 different text fading in and out using a timer.In my draw function i first draw a rectangle with the Sprites graphics object representing the background of the button.I added a function to set the button width. This property is used to draw the rectangle. I know that the sprites's size is updated after the rectangle drawing. But for some reason the sprite's width is always more than what i have set via my "setButtonWidth" function.Now i have a simple sprite acting as a button having a graphics.drawRectangle part drawing a simple rect. with lets say 500px width. But when i trace the width of that button it is always about 10% more. Where are these 10% coming from?I read about calling validateNow(). But this is only for Labels, or Checkboxes. For some reason i cannot access the library for Label. This must work somehow with TextFields. But how?
// this function is part of MyButtonClass.as file
function drawButton()
{

How can I get a consistent value from the top margin/padding of a TextField to the top of the actual text.According to the docs (link below), the text field has a 2px gutter on all sides. But there seems to be another gutter that seems to increase / decrease with the size of the text.Using times new roman for a default font size, I can get the baseline of some random text using what we know: I know that there is a 2px gutter all the way around the text field and we can get the ascent through textfield.getLineMetrics(0).ascent. If I draw a line at that position I'll get a line about 2 px below the actual text. Works fine.Now if I want to draw another line at the TOP of the text it's a guessing game. At 36pt text it's 8px from the top of the textfield. At 72pt text it's more like 12px from the top, and at 144pt text it's more like 20px from the top.URL...

I'm making a presentation in Flash that needs to be put on a DVD, which we will given to people in my organization to view at home. The presentation will not contain any interactivity. It will have text, music, video, and narration.
The videos will be short and contain sound, should I embed them in the fla file? I planned to break the presentation into scenes to make it easier to manage, and so they'll just play one after another. My computer can burn DVDs, so I was just going to export the swf to DVDS.

I'm planning to provide the visitors of my website an option to toggle between their normal window and an optional fullscreen window. I just don't know how to align a simple movieclip to the left bottom of my fullscreen window (margin 20px). I can't use static parameters because it has to be adjusted to everyone's personal screen resolution. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I need to put a key frame in an .flv file
More specifically, I'm just converting a video into FLV using the Adobe Media Encoder. I'm primarily a web designer, not a video guy, I've always just used the built in Insert FLV function in Dreamweaver to put Flash Video in. However, when autoplay is off I need to know how to control what frame shows up on the front of the video before it starts playing.

I'm doing a project using FLARManager augmented reality and the Papervision3D library. Unfortunately, Papervision is giving me a lot of problems.My scene3D contains a DAE model and a plane. The plane has a MovieMaterial and is playing a video through FLVPlayback. The DAE and the plane are both inside the same DisplayObject3D container. FLARManager transforms the container so that everything appears through the angle of the marker.
My DAE model is a TV, the screen of the TV is transparent. I want to have my Plane inside of my DAE model, so that the Movie playing on the plane material appears to be what is playing on the TV.The problem is that, even if the plane has a lower Z index then the TV, it always appears in front of the TV.
How do I have my plane and its MovieMaterial appear behind the TV, so that some of its corners are cut out by the TV and the part of the TV thats transparent let me see the Movie? If its impossible, anyone has an idea of how I could get the desired effect of having a movie play on the screen of my DAE tv model?

I have been researching all day and there are many different solutions, none that are straight forward. I am currently in the process of making a website in Dreamweaver which has a flash header. Problem is the flash header reloads when you go to every page. Is there a simple (I'm a noob) way I can get the flash header to stay open at the top of the website, and the content of each page just change when you go to each page. Thus the flash header and nav buttons do not reload on every page. To review the pages so far; [URL]..
