I start flash as3 project on Flash CS3, about one year ago. After compile it on CS4, I get this error (on Russian): TypeError: Error #1009: Не удается вызвать свойство или метод со ссылкой на объект "null". at fl.controls::TextArea/drawLayout() at fl.controls::TextArea/draw() at fl.core::UIComponent/callLaterDispatcher() B...
We're working on a Flash CS4 project where the main .fla file has ballooned in size and 'Publish' is taking forever. I suspect a large amount of the size (and at least some of the compile time) is due to the quantity of audio symbols in the library. I would love to remove this unnecessary bloat from the .fla file. I've experimented with...
I have a very simple .fla file. There's a shape on the stage with a fill, and I want to change its colour when the movie starts. Googling seemed to suggest: myColor = new Color(myClip); myColor.setRGB(0xFFFF00); but it didn't seem to work. Any suggestions?.. ...
hey I'm trying to build this simple debugger class so i can see flash vars inside the browser console and if I'm testing it inside the flash ide i will get the good old tracer. But for some reason ExternalInterface.available returns true inside the Flash ide!? package libs { import flash.external.ExternalInterface; public class...
I want to write a flash to simulate people dancing, but I think if I make all the animation by hand, it will be a huge work. So I am thinking if there is a library(or other things people has done previously) that I can make use of. I can build the character, the foot, the arm and head etc. What I want is an algorithm to apply to the who...

I was told the pixel detection is costly for regular windows games. Is this the same for flash ?? Or would pixel detection be lighter compared to other detections flash has to offer. Flash has the getPixel32 method which makes it easy for detecting pixels. If I am bliting my game, would it be wise to use getPixel32 for collision detectio...
I am trying to remove an object from an array. but from some reason its not working. I am under the impression that a splice accepts 2 parameters. the position of the array. and for parameter 2 , how many to delete from then on out I just want to delete one array so I am doing this array.splice(i,0); but it isn't working. can someone...
This might be a dumb question. I think I already know the answer, just clarify. If you declare a object in varible1 and then pass the value into varible2. If you decide to null varible2 would that kill just the reference or the object itself as well. I want to say no, but then again, everything you do to the reference it self, also affec...
I have some simple code: function testing(){ for (a=1; a<=4; a++) { this["btn"+a].enabled = true; } } If i run this function from anywhere it works fine. If i run this function from myTimer = setInteval(testing, 3000); it will not work. If i add other random code into the function it (the newly added c...

Is there a way to get a list of the exposed functions from a Flash object? For example, you could get a list of all methods in an object by executing: for (var i in object) { if (typeof object[i] == "function") { console.log(i); } } The only issue is that this won't expose any methods registered through the ExternalInterfaces...
I have a Flash movie that is embedded in an HTML page that has a DIV in a layer over the top of the movie. The Flash movie scrolls based on the mouse position over the movie. The client wants the scrolling to stop when the mouse is over the DIV. I've tried using the mouseLeave event, but that is not triggered by the DIV. Is there a wa...
