I want to get some images from a flash webpage and I got the .swf files. Is there a way to open the .swf and grab the contents of that file. I am not asking how to play the file or view the file. I actually want to open up the file and view its contents, if possible. I don't know anything about flash and tried searching already. It probably isn't possible since i didn't find any answers via search, but I wanted to try here first.

View 9 RepliesI downloaded the Sothink SWF Decompiler, which allows you to open and view the structure of a .swf file. (the unregistered version limits the amount of actionscript you can view). It even can resave as a .fla file. Does it concern anyone that when you host your Flash code and applictions, it is basically open sourced, whether you want it to be or not?
View 7 RepliesI have been playing with my brothers Adobe Flash Builder program but I can't figure out how to view game files for a open source game? The game is FLASH all the sprites are listed as the AS (actionscript?) file format. I am not trying to view the code, but the actual sprite, such as characters etc. I wanted to save them as PNG or any other image files.
View 9 RepliesI have built a simple Flash application that will be presented using a projector, the application will show messages in the form of questions that will come from a simple flat-file text file or XML file.
In addition to this I would also like to be able to add my own messages using a simple HTML form.
I've been looking around the web for some resources, but have been struggling to find what I am looking for. The basic idea is that the flash application will loop through these different messages from the XML, but then when a user types in a message that will also appear within these messages. Think of it as a sort of dynamic tag cloud.
I have a flex 3 application that creates an Image from a canvas which the user draws on. I use the ImageSnapshot class to create the image
var imageSnap:ImageSnapshot=ImageSnapshot.captureImage(myCanvas);
var imageByteArray:ByteArray=imageSnap.data as ByteArray;
I want the user to be able to print or save the image. I can use the following code to print the image but flex does not provide good control over printing across multiple pages
var printJob:FlexPrintJob=new FlexPrintJob();
printJob.start();
printJob.addObject(myCanvas, FlexPrintJobScaleType.SHOW_ALL);
I would like to display the image in a browser window so that the user could print it using the built in browser functionality or right click on the image and save it. Can this be done without requesting server side code to do it?
I'm customizing an xml flash website and while I can handle all the html and xml well enough, but in Flash, I have no clue how to:
Now go on the stage, and delete the contents of the last layer(background & pattern). Here, add from the library, the square movieclip, and name it mcBackColor(see attached image).And then to add your swf background in the "background & pattern" layer from the main.fla file.
I can change the name, but don't know how to delete just the contents of the layer and then add the new clip.I've made a slideshow before and that's all I can do.
I'm about to have to write a web page/app that will serve the agenda for circa 100 people on a page. One line per person, one column per day with 3 clickable zones in each cell. In HTML, the page is way complex for the browser to load quick and there is no possibility to click on a border between 2 cells to for example split an event that spreads among several cells. So I search an not too overkilling technology to render this kind of view. I begun with a PHP generated HTML page but the number of elements in the page make the mouse move jerky.
Moving to JAVA would give me better performances regarding the reuse of the generator of the view but it will still be an HTML page. So, here is my question: do you think that going forward with JAVA and its graphical capability is the simple solution or is Flash a better option for this part of a Web App? I'm afraid of the code I'll have to write in JAVA to handle the GUI presentation as well as the events generated by the 1000's cells plus borders of the page. In Flash, the graphical part seems simpler even if the actions handling is still huge.
I'm currently using RobotLegs with the Presentation Model pattern to develop a Flex 4 project. I understand that all business logic related to a View resides in the Presentation Model associated with that view, however, I am confused when it comes to View specific logic.For example, I have an indicator that needs to be positioned relatively to list items depending on which list item is selected. Is it acceptable in the Presentation pattern to put the logic that will position the indicator in the View and simply have that logic run in reaction to a selectedIndex property changing in the presentation model?The reason I am considering this is that since the Presentation Model does not have a reference to the view it is difficult to come up with an ideal solution for manipulating view components.

I have one .mxml file (the Application) with a ViewStack (with 4 views) and a ControlBard, obviously I can change the views with it, but what I want to do is: in view #1 I have an image which I want to convert to a "hyperlink", so when I click it I go to View #2, is this doable? Also I would like to pass somehow some data (like a String) to that View #2 (lets say the it's a user avatar I click so I want to go to the second view which will show me his profile, that's why I need his name/id).
View 1 RepliesMy problem is that when I try to pass an object from the navigator.pushView(view, dataobject), I can't figure out how to access the dataobject from actionscript.

Basically you cannot move in the file to edit anything viewpoint wise, everything outside of the movie area is invisible and not there? As if cropped.

View 2 RepliesA DisplayObjectContainer's dimensions change based on its contents.
That can be a LOT of contents, many of them with visible = false or masked, thus making them hidden. Is there a way to get only the visible contents of a DisplayObjectContainer similar to a TextField has the textHeight property, which gives you the exact dimension of what you see on-screen.

I'm trying to learn AS3 the hard way (i.e. just barrelling on into it), and I'm a bit stuck on this form that I'm putting together. Aside from the normal headaches associated with form building in Flash, I've got a series of conditional contents that I need to work out.Basically, it's a no-brains-required error reporting form, and it's covering three sites, with several buildings, and a couple of thousand computers. What I want to do is to limit the amount of selectable machines available as more fields are filled out in this form: say I chose site 1, I only want machines that are actually on site one to be available. Would it make more sense for this to be done at the server end, or is there a way of getting the combo boxes to check to see whether conditions have been met prior to displaying contents?
