how I would make one of these zoomable image modules. It's essentially an image viewer with a zooming slider bar.. it zooms when you slide a bar.. I think I could figure that part out pretty easily.. but when it zooms, it's not ONLY enlarging the image.. the image actually gets sharper and reloads a the visible portion of the image..
View 5 RepliesI am trying to make a comic by putting the comic in a movie clip called graphic_novel (also the instance name) but I want to have individual thumbnails in the comic zoomable so that if you hover over them then you get a further zoom into each thumbnail of the comic.
So far I have the following actionscript on the main comic which also has a motion tween between frame 1 and 20 so that it zooms in or out over that amount of frames.
The zoom works fine but I have tried numerous methods of creating invisible movie clip buttons over the individual thumbnails and tried to add similar actionscript to make a further zoom. Basically I want to navigate around the comic using zoom in zoom out.[code]...

View 1 RepliesI have created a modular application. I have two modules, for example Module1 and Module2.I have loaded these modules in my application. I am using Parsley in my application. I have loaded separate different context builder in both modules.
But when I am dispatching event from Module1, I am able to listen that event in that Module1 but I am trying to listen that event in another Module2. I am not able to listen that event in that Module2 through Parsley.

There is a Shell and a Module. The Shell loads the Module. Module is never run without the Shell. Because there will be more modules, I decided to put common classes to Shell.
1. Compiled Shell with -link-report objShell_Extern.xml
2. Compiled Module with -load-externs obj<ShellProject>_Extern.xml Module size shrank from 90 KB to 2,05 KB.
3. Added 5 filters to Module:
import flash.filters.*;
tf.filters = [new GlowFilter(), new GradientGlowFilter(), new DropShadowFilter(), new BevelFilter(), new BlurFilter() ];
Module size grew to 2,15 KB.
4. Added 5 filters to Shell (same code as above), recompiled it, then recompiled Module.Module size still at 2,15 KB.
5. Tried getDefinitionByName
//import flash.filters.*; commented out
var GlowFilter:Class = Class(getDefinitionByName("GlowFilter"));
var GradientGlowFilter:Class = Class(getDefinitionByName("GradientGlowFilter"));
[code]....
Error #1065 GlowFilter not initialized, Module size grew to 2,19 KB. Deleting some, but not all filters is decreasing size, so it's not the getDefinitonByName that takes 0,14 KB (2,19 - 2,05 without filters).
1. Do I understand the idea of load externs, or does it work only with specific classes? Why it doesn't work with filters?
2. What did I screw up with getDefinitionByName and is it a new feature because of it's use like in link below?

I've got a zoomable map within a frame, and of course I don't want it to be dragged out of view, right? So, how do I set the startDrag (L,T,R,B) parameters when it's a different size when it's enlarged (zoomed)?
if ( between Size>100 AND Size<200) {
startDrag(this, false,400,150,600,250);
} if ( between Size>200 AND Size<400) {
startDrag(this, false,500,250,500,150);
}
I am working on an Image manipulation application which will be developed using Flash/ C#.Net. Is this possible to save the image manipulations (not the image) saved from Adobe Lightroom for a specific image & then merge these change sets with an image to make a new image using C#.Net?
Also, the application for image manipulation will be developed in the Flash/ Action Script. Please share some links as to how we can save the image manipulations for an image (not the image) so that it can be merged with an image later on.
I'm trying to find out how to make a simple image gallery which changes image upon a mouse click on a button, when a button is pressed I want the image to slide in from the left into the viewable area and then when another image is selected I want the previous image that was viewed to remain in the screen and then the new image slide across over the top to replace the image.
I can get the images to slide across from the left upon a mouse click however I can't change the layer order so if image 6 is viewed and then I click to see image 1, the image will slide into place however it will be below image 6 so therefore not viewable.
I don't have an example of what I'm after but I hope my explanation was good enough, I've seen this been done in javascript but I have to use flash and am unable to replicate the effect I'm after

I'm building a website in Joomla 1.5 content management system. I can make my swf files play if hard coded into a web page or from Dreamweaver etc.

a flex module complied to flash behaves differently, and embedding it doesnt seem to work, at all.
however this application pretty much depends on the modules being loaded with the main application so embedding the module is vital. i've tried countless techniques and so far the only thing i know woks so far is:

I have made a start on my quiz, in order to complete the criterions I have to create a project (a quiz in my case) which uses a variety of methods and tools e.g. drag and drop features, user text input and numeric input etc.I had planned on creating 4 topics and 4 questions in each. Having searched the forum it appears that the common consensus for creating a quiz is to set up your questions in a XML file however I have no idea how to use this or what it is. Moreover from my research I found I appear to be doing things slightly different to other people who are doing or did a quiz. This difference is how the answers are input; I will be user input text fields along, multiply choice buttons etc. I also am placing my questions in different places for different sections and I am also required to use video.This may still be able to be done however I only have 29 days to complete the task and the way I'm planning will be quicker as I understand how it works at least. The first problem I am having is how to code for the input text. I plan on allowing for the user to input a word and then to compare that word against the correct answer. This also brings me onto my second problem. Once a section of questions has been completed I plan on taking the user to a screen which displays how many answers they got correct. This would involve tracking their answers and comparing them to a set of correct answers however I have no idea how to do this. (from what i have learnt recently the use of an array maybe?).
The final problem I am having at the moment is setting up a 'barrier of sorts' In my first question i have set up a mask which applies only to the image I have also placed on the stage. The mask is applied to a circle which can be dragged around displaying small sections of the picture at a time. I wish to stop the circle leaving the picture as it falls under the background once it as left the area of the image. This results it in disappearing. I have no idea how to solve this and I could not find information on it. The solution I think would be to stop the masked circle leaving the area of the picture OR to reset it back to original position if it is released outside the images area.My quiz is far from complete at the moment and I have not yet even finished the frames for each of the questions however these problems are fundamental to the quiz's success and so I felt I needed to confront them now.I can upload what I have done so far and send the link in a pm so you can see what I mean (if it is not already clear)
I'm pretty baffled by the lack of information I've found about this and even more baffled that it doesn't look like there's support for this functionality.
I'm building a custom module loader and I want to send x, y, width, height coordinates for each module I'm loading so I can dynamically place modules where I want them.

I would like to create geo locking module which would react per-file/stream. This means that one particular file which will be streamed via FMS can be geolocked to one country (e.g. Lost can be viewed only by USA viewers (IPs)).Flash video player connects with nc.connect() and plays file with ns.play() method. Geolocking would happend on ns.play() since some files/live streams are locked to some countries (not everything is geolocked and once they are, are not geolocked to same countries so everything happend on per file basis).
Can this module be done in Actionscript or is it necessary to use C++ module?
I have just started looking into using Modules in Flex and would like to know how you all go about developing them.I understand how to use them (load, unload, application domains, shared classes, etc.), but I'm wondering what a good workflow is in creating them and using them in multiple applications.If I were building reusable application components (text editor, image cropper, compass, whatever), and I wanted to reuse them in many different applications, it seems like I would:
1) Create an Application specifically for one of those modules
2) Create a Module inside that Application
3) Develop the Module by itself, make it work right
4) Link shared libraries to it somehow (like library projects I would use between all of the modules)
5) ... then I'm unclear what's next.I now have lets say 10 Module/Applications, and I want to start mashing them together into usable applications.What's the best way to do this?I would like to not have to copy-paste code and swfs, using something like git submodules if an equivalent is possible.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to build my flex modular app, and got the following scenario
Portal (which includes, 2 modules:)
-Mod1 (.swf)
-Mod2 (.swf)
Also, I have Mod1-API (.swc). The Mod1-API, defines interfaces which are implemented on the Mod1 (.swf). Both the Mod1 and Mod2 swfs import the Mod1-API swc. I'm trying to call the API method on the Mod2. On Mod2 I've the interface, since it is shared via the Mod1-API project. What I'm trying to achieve is the real implementation class loading on Mod2, via reflection, using the getDefinitionByName method, but it says its not defined. How from the mod2 load a class that is on the Mod1 project, returning just the interfacce to the mod2 so it can call methods just like an ordinary API method?
I'm wondering if there's any reasonable way to get a reference to an object in Flex, and look through everything in every sub object (every property and everything). That is, I want to know if I can completely map all of the data within an object, from another object. I'm aware that this wouldn't work for private (or protected) members, but for anything public, it should be possible, correct?
View 1 RepliesIm using a few modules repeatedly in a Flex app and varying the conditions by passing in params via the 'loaderInfo.url' var. This works fine for the first iteration of a given module but subsequent attempts will always see the same params as the first creation regardless of what is actually used.

When I view the param in the 'CreationComplete' handler (eg 'trace( this.loaderInfo.url );') its the same every time (for a given module) regardless of what is actually passed in via the ?param=string. What am I doing wrong?
