Slow Down Single Cell Animations?
Oct 13, 2009
I'm new to flash and I'm working on an animation project for my class.I decided to do half of it as single cell animation and half of it using tweens and whatnot.The parts that are single celled are moving WAY to fast and are throwing off the flow with my tweens. It's a requirement of the project to have atleast 20 fps, and I don't have enough time to dedicate to drawing tons of more cells.For example, I have one animation made up of 40 frames and it needs to be stretched to about 100 frames.I've tried copying all of the cells into a movie clip and attaching a stop(); method at the final frame in the movie clip, then importing that into my movie and stretching it to the length i need, but it just runs at the normal animation rate and then stops until the timeline gets to where it's time for the next event or scene to take place. It sort of looks like i need to find a way to control the fps of my movie clip independently of the entire movie, but how would i go about that?how i could go about extending this?

I want to select information in a single cell from my DataGrid in Flex 3.
Specifically, I'm displaying three phone numbers per line and the user needs to be able to select one of those numbers, from any row, but not the whole row.
While similar to this, I am displaying the DataGrid to the user. The answer for that question was to manipulate the dataProvider, how can I know what cell I've selected in order to do that?

I have created an app in CS5.5 for Android and iOS. I have tested on two Android devices and everyingthing works fine. However, on an iPad and iPhone the animations are really slow. Here are some more facts:
1) My project has many scenes and in the problems scene there are upwards of 1,200 frames. But even simple animations run slowly.
2) The frame rate is set for 24 fps.
3) I have created a universal app (iphone and ipad), publish resolution is standard at full screen.
4) Ironically, I have already tried caching as bitmap. That actually slowed my animations even more. I am truely at the end of the line here and don't have any possible solutions.

I'm using CF to retrieve values from a database that are then being stored in a datagrid in Flex. I then want to selectively take the value from one cell of the datagrid and store it as a string variable. I've searched around, but I haven't been able to come about a solution. The users will not be interacting at all with the datagrid as it will be hidden to them.

I have recently developed a standalone Flash entertainment system, containing Flash games and screensavers etc., i have also included a third party mp3 player.
The problem i have is the PC is left switched on daily and the system is used quite heavily, i.e mp3's playing in background while screen savers are displayed and games are played.
Everything starts fine but after a few hours the flash animations slow down to about 2 or 3 frames per second, then the PC will finally crash.

I'm using the following script on a button/movie clip to control the placement and rotation of an object. Half way down the code i have detailed the problem that i am encountering. I don't know if my syntax for access to a global array is correct but this line is definately where the problem lies.
on (press)
{
_global.cogrot[1];
_global.cogarray = new Array(5,6);
_global.matflag = new Array(1);

This is the first time I have used a FLV with cuepoints. I have a flv which loads into my swf which I have added cuepoints to on import. I have a series of buttons over the flv and when you rollover these you skip to various points in the flv. This works in principal but in reality it is a little slow, especially when it first loads. I am assuming this is because the FLV is still loading (although I am testing this locally and it will never be used on the web). If this is the case I think I need to make sure the entire flv is loaded before i show it. Secondly, is this the reason the rollover animations are slow to start or is this an inherent problem when using FLV? Is there anything else I can do to make it more responsive?

I've been working with the flash data grid component, and I want to update just one cell in the data grid without updating the entire dataset. I haven't found anyway to do this and the object inheritance makes it really difficult to track down properties of specific child elements. Here's a snippet i use to get data from a specific data cell:
var cellData:String = _currentPlaylistDataGrid.columns[0].itemToLabel(_currentPlaylistDataGrid.getItemAt(_c urrentSlideID));
What's the best way to do this? It's NOT on a click event or interactive event.

To try to avoid lag in the main animations (few ones, 5 I think), instead of having all the contents load as external movie clips in a movie clip called contentsMC (for instance), I used that contentsMC clip to contain them all, in several frames. There's no great problem in having all in one, since the contents are mainly text. The contentsMC shows up in a masked area inside the main movie clip.
I also have a transition effect, under that masked area.
When I press a button, it uses the command loadContent = #; And sets the transition effect movieclip play ( transitionMC.gotoAndPlay(1); ).
At the mid point of that transition effect (when it covers the actual content), it has the if conditions required to display what was asked.
if (loadContent == 1) {
_parent.contentsMC.gotoAndStop(1);
if (loadContent == 2) {
_parent.conteudos.gotoAndStop(2);
and so on.
However, when the transition effect is ocurring, all the animations in the main page become really slow, until it ends. Also, if I use anything inside the contentsMC, such as a scroll bar, the same lag occurs. That lag happens both with the always running animations (they are 5, I think) and with any other animation triggered during that, for instance by the onRollover effect of a movieclip.
To try to reduce that, I had set the framerate to higher values. First I set it to 50, then 60, and now it's currently at 90 (I only set it to 90 as it displays quite slower on the browser)

how to animate a simple sprite for the 100th time, I hope I might found I more specific, and better explained answer to my problem. I'm trying to make a flash game, of course, and I want my main Player sprite to be able to play multiple animations based on specific input. So, a running right animation, a running left animation, a jump animation, and an attack animation.

so basically i set my characters up like playerMC then in that animation i have a body head arms and legs.. and in those i have different items equipped on each body part on each frame how should i set this up!!!.. i cant call those items deep in the animation the farthest i can go is like Playermc.gotoandplay ("walk") when i try to do like.. playermc.walking.head.gotoandplay ("item") it doesnt work..

is it possible to put an MC in a row of a ComboBox? How should I go about doing this? I was going to copy the .as file(s) for the comboBox/cellRenderer components and alter them, but after looking at a few, I'm not sure which ones would be best to work with.

I am using a datagrid in flex and need to render each cell with a different style.What could be the best way to set a style to a perticular cell in datagrid/advanced datagrid (flex)?
I think one possible option can be extend the datagrid and override the drawRowBackgroungd function. Apart from this can i use some custom item renderer or some property similar to label function of a series, there it used to return label here we need a style.

I have created a datagrid with 2 columns. The first one is the normal text data and the second column contains buttons for each cell. What I want to do is retrieve the text information when the corresponding button on the same row is clicked. How do I get this information? I am unable to use selectedItem because I do not want to select the correct row before pressing the button.

Have tried to figure out how this can be done - use this simple code to populate a datagrid with XML data in this format. What i want is a datagrid that will function as a gantt chart - with 2 different colors - just thought this might be a way to solve it. In the final XML there will be more than the 2 columns!
<items>
<item columnA="This1" columnB="1" />
<item columnA="This2" columnB="0" />

I have an editable datagrid with a dataprovider which is basically Numbers. Is it possible to delete a value? When I do it it puts a 0 in that cell but I really need an empty value, like a Null or a NaN whose are going to be cleaned later with a labelFunction. BTW I also need the cells to keep the 0 if needed to.
