I have a dynamically created chart and I need to add a horizontal and vertical axis in a script. I can't put the chart into MXML because I'm dynamically changing the chart type, deleting and creating a new chart. Therefore, the variable that I use to create the chart, an instance of chartBase, doesn't have either a horizontalAxis or vert...
I can't get this to work in my AS1 application. I am using the Color.setTransform method. Am I correct in thinking the following object creation should result in transforming a colour to white? var AColorTransform = {ra:100, rb:255, ga:100, gb:255, ba:100, bb:255, aa:100, ab:255}; And this one to black? AColorTransform = {ra:100, rb:...
Hi guys, I'm building a flash site (as3) with large videos that act as transitions from section to section. The videos don't scale; in order to accommodate users with large monitors, we're planning on playing back HD video and only showing users the center of the frame (depending on their screen size). That is, there will be a central...

This is a complex question, because there are a lot of moving parts. My apologies in advance.

I've written a short little Flex application ("WLocalWebCam.swf") which handles the came...
Is it possible (if so how) to find out what word the cursor/mouse is over when it is moving over a < mx:Text > component? So for example as the user moves the mouse along a sentence (inside text component), each word will highlight as they go (I know you can highlight while pressing the mouse button down - but that not how I wish to do i...
I'm trying to figure out a simple drawing program in Flash and it's giving me trouble. The main drawing area is a MovieClip named drawZone. However, when displaying something, the author uses another MovieClip embedded in the drawZone Symbol named zone. The drawZone Symbol has 2 layers, a mask layer and a masked sublayer that contains th...
How do I wait for an external .txt file to load in ActionScript 3? If I use URLLoader, I have no guarantee that the file has loaded, since it dispatches an event when it's complete. I'm calling the loader function from another class, so I can't simply stick the next actions into the event listener. ...

I'm developing an applications which I've got running on a server on my linux desktop. Due to the shortcomings of Flash on Linux (read: too hard) I'm developing the (small) flash portion of the app in Windows, which means there's a lot of frustrating back and forth. Now I'm trying to capture the output of the flash portion using flash tr...
The following code is a combination of samples taken from red5. Basically I am trying to combine a live stream subscriber with a chat box based on shared objects. I'm not a flash developer and have a very limited understanding of what is going on here. // ** AUTO-UI IMPORT STATEMENTS ** import org.red5.utils.Connector; import org.re...
If I have a sprite, with which I have drawn some stuff, how do I erase part of what I have drawn? Preferably I could use drawRect with some "alpha=0" paint. However, I don't believe beginFill lets you set an rgba color (like you can in bitmapdata). Setting alpha = 0 in beginFill doesn't really do anything -- it just draws nothing. In...

I am doing some intensive mathematical processing in Actionscript, and repeatedly process arrays of Numbers. I have previously been using my own subclass of Array(I call it NumericArray), with added functions such a...

I have a flash clip that moves a movieclip when the mouse is clicked on the movieclip. Something very basic. I'm not using drag (since the MC doesn't move with the mouse all the time), but rather using onMouseMove to update the MC location according to _xmouse, _ymouse and some other calculations. The problem was that under internet ex...
