I have a Flex button. I need one color on the left and another on the right. I don't need it to be a gradient. Just solid colors. Like green on left & red on right. I really don't want to use an image -- just because it'll probably take me a long time to do it. The gradients via Flex Properties in Flex Builder seems to apply only vertic...
Hey all, let's jump straight to a code sample to show how ECMAScript/JavaScript/AS3 can't do simple math right (AS3 uses a 'IEEE-754 double-precision floating-point number' for the Number class which is supposedly identical to that used in JavaScript)... trace(1.1); //'1.1': Ok, fine, looks good. trace(1.1*100); //'110.00000...
Hi, I have a XML image gallery created within a custom class. This is the way I add the gallery to stage: var mainContainer:MovieClip = new galleryXML(stage, "xml/image_gallery.xml"); This works perfectly. But I'm thinking in setup my navigation in the same way. Creat the pages within custom classes and them loading them as I lo...
I want to create a site tour that plays an flv and then highlights different areas of the actual site while the flv is playing. I would like to do this with AS3 and jQuery. I will probably try to use jw flv player for playing the video. I know you can call JS from Flash, but it's been awhile since I've messed with Flash video and my g...

I want to create a new Adobe AIR window from my application. I want the new window to be a normal new window but not to re-size, minimize, or maximize but I also don't want it to show up on the task bar.

I've got this weird thing happening (maybe weird) when I use the 3d stuff in cs4. Basically, I have a stage that is 1100.wide and 500.tall.

When we work with buttons we set up our listener and the function it uses, but if we have the button animate in or show up elsewhere in a later frame, we will get an error saying the object doesn't exist. What would be the more common or correct approach, set up our functions on frame 1 then attach the listener on the frame the button c...
My Flex app downloads a bunch of images. When the user closes the browser window (or navigates away from the page), those images shouldn't be saved in the local cache. HTTP headers for the SWF file tells browser to fetch it from the website every time -- that is, it shouldn't save the SWF file locally. I just want to make sure that any o...
I'm looking for an equivalent to C/C++'s __TIME__ and __DATE__ compile-time constants in AS3. I want to be able to bake in when the swf was built. I can write a build script or JSFL to update a constant somewhere, but I was hoping there was something built in. ...

A silly question, but I spent an hour trying to find it: I created a symbol, and named it symbol_a. How can I get this symbol name from an instance? If I use myInstance.name I get the instance name and not the symbol name...... Thanks in advance, Edward ...
What is a good strategy for detecting when the position (x, y) of a sprite, relative to the stage, has changed? In other words, how can I detect changes to a sprite's global position? This becomes difficult when the sprite is the child of other DisplayObjectContainer objects. ...
