Flash :: Dragging Object From Html Page Into A Container?
May 12, 2010
I am doing some pre-production on a project that requires drawing on a 3d canvas, which I think flash is the best way to go. But there is a chance down the line that this client might want the site to show up on the ipad, iphone or other mobile devices that don't support flash.
So I was playing with the idea of doing everything in html and javascript except for the actual drawing/3D area. Almost like using flash as the element. I think html5 is too premature to start using this, but might be beneficial down the line. Chances are I will just go the entire flash route, but I thought it would be interesting to try. question is pretty top level. 1) how hard would it be to drag an object from an html page using javascript, and dropping it into the flashplayer. And then manipulating it from there.
Are there any examples out there that have tried to do this?

I would like to ask when swf object rendering at the html page? Is it rendered only it's visible? If swf at the page bottom that is not visible, will swf be rendered when I scroll down? The problem is that swf object raises some events when it's rendered and I would like to force rendering even if swf object is not visible.

I have a canvas onto which I draw shapes like rectangle etc. When I move the shape using my custom mouse down/mouse move handler, the shape can go outside the parent bounds.
I am checking if the child is outside the parent's bound to snap it back:
var bounds:Rectangle = this.getBounds(this.parent);
var p:Point;
if (bounds.x <0) {
[Code]...
The snapInside method gets called when I go outside the left or top boundary. But when the child is dragged outside the right or bottom boundary, I find Flex/Flash runtime automatically expands the parent's height and width. So say the parent size was initially 800x600, if child Y bounds exceed 800 by say 20 pixel, I find the this.parent.height automatically resized by flex to 820!!
How do I prevent the parent from resizing when child goes outside the original bounds of the parent ?

I made a website using AJAX (with jquery) for the navigation.The pages of the site are sliding and I use remove() to destroy the old page.
Every thing seems alright, but some times the browser crashes when he tries to remove the old page containing a Flash object.
How do i remove this Flash's object for my page without having the browser crashing on my face ?Is there a way to stop the Flash execution before removing the object ?

I've got a grid of images which are added to a imagecontainer(Sprite) in a class. When I click a button, the imagecontainer gets tweened(scaled) to 0.2 Now I would like to start dragging around the images. on mouse-down I add an enterFrame Event:
[Code]...
Unfortunately the image is never on the mouseposition but has a increasing/decreasing offset to the mouse pointer.The alternative, startDrag/stopDrag works perfectly, but I stll need the mouseX/mouseY for placing the image on a grid.I tried also parent.mouseX, no luck with that.Why is this happening? I thought mouseX/mouseY is always depending on the stage-dimension.

I'm missing the command to get the object height from the html page. I just want to set the original height and width to a sprite background. The object in the html is set dynamically from the server.
Also when I resize from the authoring window the background doesn't change size where:
pageBkg_mc.height=stage.height;
pageBkg_mc.width=stage.width;
I looked in the properties panel and when I clicked on the instance of the movie clip the option to set the size was disabled. Not sure why. So I deleted the instance and put it in a new fla. The options were enabled. Then I went back to my old fla and dropped a new instance of the background there again. Added the same instance name and sizing was enabled again. Is there a reason why it became disabled?
I also updated this code and it works fine now.
Code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.StageAlign;
[Code]....

I have a project with Flash Professional CS5 and ActionScript 3.
I need to trigger an event when I drag an object over a particular spot, but haven't dropped it yet. Then, I need to trigger a different event when I leave that spot (still dragging). However, this should only occur while I am dragging on object.
The traditional mouse over and mouse leave events aren't working while dragging (only while not dragging).

I'm building a website with php/css. I'm a photographer and will be displaying images, one per page. I'd like to allow the user to click an image and view it in fullscreen, scaled to their screen resolution.I know that much can be done in flash. However, I'd like to display html elements once the fullscreening has occurred. This is because I want to retain right-click functionality.
(specifically, I want users who are going to try to steal my images to actually be able to download the image out of the sized div it's in, with metadata and hidden copyright notice intact, rather than taking a screenshot and bypassing all of my usage and copyright notification)So... flash fullscreen containing html elements?

I have a site where all the pages have a common SWF embedded at the top (Nav and banner), but the rest of the page is HTML.Everything is working fine, but I'm finding the 'independence' between the HTML and Flash is making for some sloppy transitions from page to page.I was expecting the SWF to be delayed, at least for the first page visit(and I have a preload routine inside the swf to make it's delay and appearance a bit more visually pleasant), but was surprised to sometimes find the SWF appearing and playing while the HTML content was delayed (resulting in a SWF floating in black).What I'm wondering is if there's a way I can do some sort of preload on my index page.BUT, not the standard one that I'm sure everyone would suggest (like the javascript image 'preload', or the newer 'css visibility' preload trick). The problem with the standard one is that it doesn't check to see if everything is loaded.What I'm after is a routine on my index page that invisibly loads some of the elements from my inner pages (common swf, maybe some of the images) and WAITS until it's done before moving to the inner pages (displaying the company logo and/or a load status in the meantime).Many people would suggest a preloader inside the common SWF on my inner pages (which I have), but the problem with that on its own is that it doesn't stop the HTML from displaying.
I'm trying to figure out a way to do a preloader (like those in a SWF, which loops until everything is loaded) that controls both the SWF AND the HTML.Recently, I found that you can use one swf to preload another, which would be a potential solution, as I could make an SWF on the index page whose sole purpose is to load (invisibly) the common SWF, displaying the load status and then loading an inner html page once it's done.Problem is, I have bee having trouble finding the coding for that, as most searches for preloaders end up being about standard preloaders, where it's monitoring the same SWF that the code is on, as opposed to controlling a second, external SWF.Can someone point me to or provide me with the proper coding/procedure for a preloader that controlls a second external swf or give me a better solution?
one?

I have a swf within a html page. There is a function that opens an html page when an object gets to a certain x position. However, when the object gets to that point the new html page (in _self) opens over and over again and get stuck in a loop. Any way to escape this loop and what would be the best way to trigger this new html page to open when the x position of the object is true?

when you go to the home.html page an animation will play from start and then stop at the end of it. However, for all other pages i.e contact.html aboutus.html we need the animation to skip to the end straight away and not to play the whole animation through. I was thinking this would be controlled by a variable or some kind of external text file ect. Basically in the first frame the actionscript needs to basically say
"if this html page is aboutus.html then go to the last frame and stop" and with the index page it would say "if this html page is index.html then keep playing"

I have a flash animation with the size of 1280x1024 and I want to embed it into an HTML file. I want the flash file to be displayed in 800x600. This is my code:
<html xmlns="[URL]" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<body align="center"><object>
<param name="movie" value="/flash/connect.swf" />
<embed src="/flash/connect.swf" width="800" height="600"></embed>
</object></body></html>
Well, it doesn't work. I do have a 800x600 frame, but the flash file itself still displayed on its original size.

I am implementing the flash slider, Piecemaker, for the first time in my latest project. I've got a problem with it's animation being cropped by the width and height of its container, and I cannot for the life of me work out how to let it overflow outside its container during animations. There is also a weird problem I've just noticed that the top of the slider gets clipped off for some reason? who's worked with piecemaker, or something similar, or a css ninja see what the problem is? Here is the demo as it is at the moment - Link

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 have a flash header for an html site that is about a megabyte and obviously needs a preloader. Unfortunately it won't work to have the preloader loading at the top while the rest of the html below is visible — it will end up looking like the top navigation is cut off, as the top 10 pixels of the nav bar is actually in the swf header (fully loaded it will look contiguous)Is there a way to preload it in one html page and then once it's loaded into the cache automatically jump to the page with the big swf?

I have a number of tabs which can be dragged around the screen.. I've constrained the movement to a rectangle using startDrag(false, rectangleName) but when I ROLL_OUT or MOUSE_UP outside of the constrain rectangle the tab does not register it, thus defining itself a new startX and startY once clcked on a second time..
private function tabOver(event:MouseEvent):void { event.currentTarget.scaleX = 1.05; event.currentTarget.scaleY = 1.05;}private function tabClick(event:MouseEvent):void { event.currentTarget.scaleX = 1.05;

Let me give the context first. A user opens a local html file which has a reference to a network url of an swf file to embed.
(1) If the embed swf requests a local image file , will Flash allow the request?
(
2) If the embed swf requests an image file on a non local url other than one of the swf file, will Flash check a crossdomain.xml file on the url?
