I try to load as many assets during runtime, but sometimes you just need animations of image sequences on a timeline.

I've been Googling a bit about SWC, there is a lot of oudated info out there....

I have actually checked this language out a while back but have never tried or used it. It is cross-platform as / js / others right? Have you tried it?

I'm looking to speed up compile time. Back in the day I used MTASC and it would just update the code of the swf.

Hmz, I update the flash player from 10 to 10.1 and it seems to function properly now... still seems weird because it was publish on cs4 without the 10.1 upgrade.

Thank you for your fast reply. I already knew about script timeout and loops and such, it's about this ___setprop___ thing that I can't seem to figure out.

I got this error from a swf file:

Well, the subject says it all really.

I want to unload a swf and have it removed from memory, I use 'unloadAndStop'. But how can I check if the swf / MC has really been removed?

My first suggestion would be:


var color_arr:Array = new Array ( 'black', 'pink', 'green' );

for(var i in color_arr){
this[color_arr[i]].addEventListener(MouseEvent.Click, onColorChoice);...

Not so though as I thought it was. Solved it myself.

Thanks!

Dear all,

I want to apply a (flint) effect on a PNG image.

This PNG image is rather large, and only a small portion is filled with pixels. Most of the image is transparant.

I want to...

I searched a little longer and found the solution and found it here.

I had to use:

I have never used the 'as MovieClip' part and do...

I studied your attachment. I don't really see how it helps my issue though. I'm downloading a SWF file with a Loader class and I would like an optimal/clean way for the downloaded SWF file to...

Hi all!

I want to ' import ' or ' download ' some SWF file into my main-swf file. I then want them to do a lot of communication back and forth.

In de Flash IDE I create this movieclip 'MC1' and assign class MC1.as to it.

I'm just goofing around a bit with AS 3.0, still use 2.0 for all production work.

Anyway, I figured out that you cannot add your own arguments to an eventlistener. The work around is, (so I've...

that's awsome man! But I do have to ask: How did you know that?

Hi there!

I used to just do a


< [..] movie.swf?variable=something [...] >
on the webpage.

In flash, I then did a little
myvar = _root.variable

How do I then 'use' this image in my code and why is it between [ ] ?
(couldn't find anything about 'Embed' in the live docs :( )

What does this line do ?


[ Embed(source="data/images/image.png") ]

that one's awesome! Thankx :)

I've been programming in AS for quite some time. I'm completely self-thaught OOP etc.
