Are there any other short hand methods available?

Nov 21, 2008I remember when I was a boy, say in Flash MX or something. I got the entire clip to resize and it would make the content in my html page resize. And it was bad. Now that I am a man with Flash CS3, and using Actionscript 2, I would like to resize my flash movie intentionally, letting the user choose how many rows they would like displayed. This would shift the content on the html page downward with each click, expanding the swf.
View 1 RepliesManually Create Each SWF File By Hand In Flash
Aug 12, 2009I've often seen on various websites headings that were created from Flash-based text. A good example of what I'm referring to is on vancouver2010.com , most notably on pages other than the homepage. I was wondering if anyone knows if there's a way to do this automatically with a text generator perhaps, or if I need to manually create each SWF file by hand in Flash if I wanted to do this. I've also seen headers created that appear to have come from a generator of sorts that are just images.
View 2 RepliesAS3 :: Flash - Hand Cursor When Rolling Over MovieClips?
May 9, 2011My goal is to simply have the cursor swap to be a hand (pointer) when I roll over a MovieClip. Obviously I could use SimpleButton, but the situation is that I have some enemies that are obviously MovieClips, and when I select an ability to use I want the mouse to show as a pointer when I roll over them.
I assumed this would work:
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
mc.graphics.beginFill(0);
mc.graphics.drawRect(0,0,50,50);
[Code].....
There are workarounds such as adding a button into the enemy MovieClip and then removing it. Just seems there's an inbuilt way I'm missing.

View 1 RepliesProfessional :: Keyframe Keyboard Short-cut?
Jan 18, 2012While working on a project involving a mask layer and artwork layer the tutorial that explained the procedure said to press F6 to add a new keyframe to the timeline. While on the current frame, the tutor was hitting F6 and a new frame with a keyframe was produced. I need to click on the next frame then hit F6 to make the keyframe. The project is to make a vine look like it is growing and involves making lots of subsequent keyframes in this manner. The tutor breezed through making one keyframe after another - I have to physically advance to the next keyframe THEN hit F6.This really slows things down.

View 2 RepliesActionscript 3 :: No Hand Cursor Or Mouse Events On Sprites In Flash Player 10?
Jan 11, 2012My movie targets flash player 10, and I compile it with FlexSDK v 4.51. It compiles and plays with no errors. But if I view the swf in Flash Player 10, some sprites that are set to buttonmode do not show a hand cursor or dispatch MouseEvents. In fact, if I play it in the Flash Player 10 debug player, I get an error:
"VerifyError: Error #1053: Illegal override of z in mx.core.BitmapAsset."
So to fix this, I can switch to using an older SDK, version 4.1. Now the error message is gone, but the mouseover problem persists - now for Flash Player version 10 and 11.
There are no flash 11 specific features used. It should be targetable using flash player 10.
I have determined that the mouse event and the override error are not related. The mouse event error seems to being caused by using filters. and I have found a workaround, by applying the filter to a child object, instead of the parent.
The error thrown above, is getting caused by an embedded bitmap. And it seems like a fix to that is to use flex SDK 4.1. Any reason not to just use the 4.1 SDK? Any way to make 4.5 sdk compatible with Flash player 10?
Actionscript :: Flash Stage Is In The Wrong Place 0,0 Is Not In The Top Left Hand Corner?
Jan 17, 2012I inherited a flash project from someone and if I add a simple movie clip to the stage at position 0,0 it actually ends up in the middle of the screen!
What I can see is that when I open the stage in the library, in it's properties
X=350 and Y=262,05 all the subsequent movie clips which are added to the screen as by magic are added at position X=-350 and Y=-262.05
I would really like to return to a situation where 0,0 is top left corner. Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?

View 2 RepliesJava :: Putting Short Into 2 Bytes Of String
Oct 28, 2011So I'm making my own networking protocol for a online game, to save space each message (sent over TCP) is given a ID which is a short, 2 bytes, all messages sent from the server to the client and vice versa are strings, how can I convert a short to a string in java in just 2 bytes (characters)? I want to be able to convert a short int into 2 characters, so that I can send the short over the network in a string format in just 2 bytes and decode it back into a short on the other side (in actionscript 3). A character can hold 256 possible values right? So 256*256=65,536 which is the size of a unsigned short int!
Here's what I've got so far:
public static String toCode(int c){
if(c <= 255 ){
return Character.toString((char)c);
}else{
return null;
}}
public static int fromCode(String c){
return ((int)c.charAt(0));//Return the character code of the send string, 1 char only
}
This can turn a int into a single character which can be sent over the network, now I just need to have it use 2 characters and it can do up to a short.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Short Clip Before Movie Plays?
Jun 22, 2009how to create a short video to play before the user clicks on a video to watch. Kinda like a short advertisement (for our department) when the viewer wants to watch one of our football games.
With the help of another user here, I was able to get a video player to work using an xml list containing all of the video file names, once the title is clicked in the .swf file the player plays that video file.
xml file
Code:
<root>
<video>
<filename>UA029_Fb_1929_WA.flv</filename>
<title> WSU VS UW 1929</title>
<description></description>
[Code]....
so what I am trying to achieve is to have a short clip play every time a person wants to watch a video.
Also, Is there a way to create some type of text box in the swf player that will display all the metadata (game, year, score etc.) in that box?

An example of what I mean can be found here: [URL] where the model presses virtual buttons to take action.
