I'm having a problem similar to [url]...
Basically, bmpd.draw and/or png.encode are dog slow, so I'd like to have a nice "please hold while we prepare your png" dialog to appear. I can't use callLater() because of the FileReference.
And just for good measure, the loading screen appears at the same time the save dialog appears from the call to fr.save().
In an AIR application I have the following code:
theDialog = PopUpManager.createPopUp( this, TheDialogClass, true ) as TheDialogClass;
theDialog.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, cpuIntensiveCalc);
At the end of cpuIntensiveCalc the dialog is removed. The dialog informs the user that "something is going on, please stand by."
The problem is that cpuIntensiveCalc starts before the dialog draws. So the user experience is that the application freezes for 10 seconds with no indicator, then the modal dialog flashes quickly (less than a second) on screen.
The Adobe docs say this about creation_complete
Dispatched when the component has finished its construction, property processing, measuring, layout, and drawing.
So this feels like the correct event. In the name of completeness, I also tried
theDialog = PopUpManager.createPopUp( this, TheDialogClass, true ) as TheDialogClass;
cpuIntensiveCalc();
I need to make a function that execute a java method and return his result. It is static becouse a lot of other functions will call this function. So I did this:
public static function FKDescription(dest:String):String{
var jRemote:RemoteObject = new RemoteObject();
var s:String;
[Code].....
But the function returns null, because the valresult() was not been called at the end of main function. What shoud I do to make FKDescription() return the string that came from remoteobject?
I have a two way binding between a loaded flash file and the main application in flex.
BindingUtils.bindProperty(this, "micGainValue", audioPublisherApp, "micVolume");
BindingUtils.bindProperty(audioPublisherApp, "micVolume", this, "micGainValue");
micGainValue=75;

In flex component life cycle, after we make some change in a components property, invalidation methods schedules a call to methods like commitProperties, updateDisplayList, etc for some later time. I need to call the updateDisplayList instantaneously. Is there some direct way to do this.
Currently, both the labels are changed simultaneously after completion of the loop. Instead I need it to work like this, to first render the updated 'myButton1' label then enter the loop and then update myButton2's label. I know, it is elastic race track issue, but isn't there some way to achieve this ?[code]...
I have a drag-and-drop event form in a flex project. I need to run a validator right after the item is dragged into the dataGrid. In it, I fire off a function through dragDrop="verifyEventUsers()". In the validator, I compare the contents of the two arrayCollections, but it appears to be running the checks prior to completion of the drop. For instance, if I drag an element into the dataGrid and trace eventUsers.length inside the validator, I get zero. When I drag the second element, it traces as one even though two lines now appear.
How can I set up a validation script that runs after the drag-drop action has finished?

I have an Movie Clip in Flash that have subobject of button type which has subobject of input text and movie clips. Right after creation core Moveclip all subobject are set to null, when I expect them to be valid objects.
[Code]...
MC_Core_design was created in Flash and exported to Actionscript. I've done this for button_1 class aswell. The code was written using Flex. When I comment out both lines that result in error I get correct view of the core Movie clip with all subobject. How can I set subobject properties right after object creation?
I have a parent and 2 children. I am trying to pass data from child1 to child2 but keep getting an error message: 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method through a reference with a static type.

public var TestVar:String='sometext';
In child2 I am trying to get the value of TestVar and then use it as a value to search a mysql database via php.:
var newTestVar:String = child1.TestVar;
if(newTestVar != null){
getResult.token = someService.get_filtered_Paged(newTestVar);

But that does not work. In fact, when debugging "b" is always null even though "grid.getElementAt(0)" returns a BorderContainer.
I have a picture on the stage that has multiple items that have hotspots/links over them that should open a child swf on top of the background and show details about the items. then have a button in the child swf itself that removes the child from over the background so the user can click on another item etc.I found this code in someone's post and I am trying to modify it so that works for multiple swf files...it currently works for a single swf.I wan to pass the name of the button in front of the .swf in the URLRequest to have the same name as the instance name of the referring button. But I can't figure it out. Here is the code I am using on the stage

View 4 RepliesI've setup a very simple FLA, if you wanna see what I'm talking about:ample.zipIf you fire the swf and you click the red thing (button), you will go to frame 2. If you click it again, you will go to frame 1.Both frames contain a green mc with a "this.visible=false" action, so you shouldn't see it the first time.Now click fast the red button. You will see the green mc from time to time.So, seems the flash movie is executing "clicks" every ENTER_FRAME (not immediately when you click the button). The sample mc I attach has a framerate of 1fps, so you can see easily the behaviour, but it's the same with 30fps.
And the same for the green mc. The "this.visible=false" line is not executing immediately when the main timeline reaches the related frame.In the second frame, the green mc is contained inside a red mc. If you break appart this red mc, all will work as it should and you will never see the green mc (the FLA file is attached as well, so you can test).
Since I jumped onto AS3, there are lots of things I'm missing, so I'm now coding in super-safe mode. Ie, in order to place a new mc at z-index 1:

since my Timer runs every 5 seconds I have to initially execute the function normally. This creates a problem though since if the user has the mouse over the stage, it stops the timer.It cannot do this because it takes 5 seconds before the Timer first runs the function

View 2 RepliesBeen having an issue lately with Flash Media Encoder immediately closing down after starting the program. It will display the window for a very brief moment and then close down. I have used the program many times with no issues but this recently started to happen. When it started closing directly after startup the first time, it allowed me to use it a few times afterwards. But recently its not working at all.
View 2 RepliesWho'd have guessed it, my SWF plays immediately with FF, but I'm getting long delays with IE8. I've come a long way from when I started this project. I think I have everything in the right place and have the right files to work with.
I'm using SWFObject 2.2 think I'm using it properly. I used the generater (air vers.) to generate the html file. The file now plays and I have a background that displays right away (it's an image of the what first shows up).
where I can improve: [URL]..I've compressed all the images, but the file is still rather big. I expected problems with FF, but it plays immediately .
I've successfully attached a clip (identifier = "myPane_mc") which contains a ScrollPane (instance name = "myPane_sp") to the main Timeline from the Library. No problem.
attachMovie("myPane_mc","myPane_mc_01",getNextHighestDepth());
However, I can't immediatley load another clip (identifier = "myPic_mc") into the ScrollPane.
attachMovie("myPane_mc","myPane_mc_01",getNextHighestDepth());
myPane_mc_01.myPane_sp.contentPath = "myPic_mc";
Is this particular to the ScrollPane component? It works fine if I place the contentPath code in the next frame of the Timeline, but is there a function that I can attach to myPane_mc_01 to load myPane_sp's content without the additional frame?
I can stream video RTMP just fine in JW Player by LongTail Media. The Pause seems to work, however using Windows 7's Resource Monitor I can see that the player continues to download data when the video is paused, it downloads for about 60 seconds (and does not seem to be longer for longer videos). I have found the same using the examples on longtailmedia's website, so I know it is not something I have done.
I want a way to pause the video and have it stop downloading, this will save us lots of bandwidth. But also have it continue where it left off if play is pressed again.
I checked the logs on our wowza media server, which indicates that the player actually waits 60s before it sends the pause command to the server.
LongTail's support say that the pause functionality uses the built in NetStream class and its behaviour is out of their control.
I have tested flowplayer online examples, and a couple of Adobe / OSMF examples and they all continue to download for 60 seconds after the video is paused.
A way to get this working in JW player would be best, but Are there any flash players that will stop downloading while paused?
If this is not possible with RTMP are there any technologies that will do this with a flash player?
I have looked around the web and everything I have seen and tried doesn't work. I am trying to load an external swf (5 of them, seperately though) wait for it to completely load then play it. Whats happening is as soon as I call Loader.load("myswf.swf") it begins to play immediately before its finished downloading. Heres the code..
Code:
var loader:Loader;
var clip:MovieClip;
var isLoaded:Boolean = false;
[Code].....
In the LoadSwf function there is a variable called tut that was created in frame 1, this just happens to be frame 2. I think everything else is self-explanatory.
I have a curious problem with fullscreen mode in a [beta] game I designed and coded. When I launch the SWF, it works perfectly. Once I embed it in html however, it only flickers into fullscreen for a second and then back out again. It doesn't seem to be a browser issue as it happens in both Firefox and IE7 on my Vista machine.
The game is here:
Spectacle
Fullscreen is toggled by hitting the "F" key.how to get it to stop flickering?
anyone knows why progress in fileReference go to 100 percent immediately after I select the file to upload.
View 0 RepliesI currently have an AS3 swf that uses a loader to load in various other swfs, some AS3 some AS2. I load in all the swfs at the start and store them in an array for when they are need later. This works fine with the AS3 swfs, as they all have eventListeners for the ADDED_TO_STAGE event and so won't start until I need them. Unfortuantely, I haven't found a similar solution for the AS2 swfs, and they will run immediatley as I load them. Is there any way to stop this?
