I'm making a stand alone projector that will run on disk (not web).
What's the best way to keep my images looking sharp if the projector runs fullscreen?
Is there a way to load larger images and...

Is there any way to turn off the autodocking panels. I just want my panels to be free floating and not stick together. The way they dock and stick together is the worst.

There are so many ways to handle what you want to do. There isn't really just one right answer. However, to fade a clip and then play a timeline when it's done, you will need to start by deciding how...

I highly recommend "Learning ActionScript 3"... as do many other people.
It's a great book for getting into AS3 as a beginner and beyond.

Hello.
Does anyone know how to hide the context (right click) menu when using AC_RunActiveContent.js to embed an swf in HTML?

What params do I write in the source code to hide the menu the same...

cool!
Thanks.
I'll try it.

Yes, you're right..."whole number" isn't what I meant.
I guess what I mean is, how can I increment the alpha up or down using only +.1 or -.1. ?

I have a simple script that fades a MC in or out.
All I want to do is decrease the alpha gradually by .1.
But it seems to be decreasing by many decimal places, rather than just -.1;

Is there a...

I'm creating a simple xml based image viewer. The xml lists the thumbnails and large images and the FLA reads it in and then loads the appropriate images.
That works fine but I'm wondering if there...

any idea how to make the image a link after it's inserted?
I've tried wrapping the <a> tags around the <img> tag but it doesn't work.
It creates a thin little invisible link outside the image. But...

Wow. Just like that? I'll try it thanks.
I love the way AS3 handles xml.

Here you go, partner:



function gotoFrame(evt:MouseEvent){
gotoAndStop(2);
}


your_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoFrame);

in my example, you may want to add a way to remove the ENTER_FRAME event listener when it's no longer needed.
Otherwise it's a waste of memory.

var pressing:Boolean = false;



function onPressing(evt:Event){
if (pressing==true){
//continous action is repeated here...

}

I'm using a 'for each...in' loop to get the values from certain elements in my xml document.
That's working no problem.
Just wondering... is there a simpler/smarter/faster way to determine the...

Really? No answers?
I'm surprised nobody else is struggling with this issue.

Hi. Yes. Thanks so much for your replies. I tried getChildByName and that worked.
I also did a similar experiment and registered events using getChildAt which worked well since their level numbers...

Yes. Tried that. Still no luck.
I've seen this problem discussed elsewhere but with no solution so far.

I'm using the Flash IDE, so forgive me if this has already been answered...

Yes, I understand that referring to them in a branching 'if' statement could work. But that becomes very impractical for larger numbers of objects.
The part that I don't understand is this:

I have a simple mc with a class linkage of Box.
A 'for' loop places multiple instances of Box on the stage which seems like a pretty common practice.
The part I don't understand is how do I...

Thank you.
Yes. That's exactly what I've been trying just now.
The odd thing is that if you switch very quickly from one image choice to another, the preloader gets screwed up and doesn't seem to...

I'm only using one Loader.
The problem is that, when one image is in progress loading and a user clicks for a different URLRequest to change images before the first one is finished, the progress...
