I'm using a Bitmap cache that stores down a few Bitmaps. I called scaleX/scaleY on some of them, but the next time I retrieve from the cache, the Bitmap is screwed up. How does scaleX/scaleY work with Bitmap? ...

I was wondering if anyone has came up with a way to float html elements, with some content, over .swf without triggering any flash events. In my case the problem is I have flash map, and drop down menu on top of it. I simplified this into the following example: http://f1vlad.com/etc/d.html If you mouseover any elements in gray box, ...
We are hosting the ActiveX control in a WinForms application to embed flash. Is there a good way to get the list of visible ExternalInterface functions that are available for any given swf file? We are working with a 3rd party swf file, and do not have access to source. If it's not possible from C# (or code), is there a tool out there...
EDIT: I just needed to add: import mx.controls.Image; I have an MXML file, and when I can add image tags to the XML and it works. But, I can't figure out how to create an image and add it to the canvas programatically with AS. I was hoping this would have worked: var card:Image = new Image(); //ERRORS ON THIS LINE: call to possibly u...
Hi all, I'm working on a large application that is broken up into many independent swfs. There is a master swf that loads a navigation shell and the foundational logic, and a module loading system that loads child swfs into the main display area. This is all working smoothly, and now I'm onto building the modules, and I'm starting to fe...
I have an external interface call which should retrieve some text from the html that the swf is embedded in. var name:Object = flash.external.ExternalInterface.call( "function(){return JSObject.get('Resource', 'name');}"); When I put the variable name into a textbox I get the correct text. when I use geturl with a clickTag, unde...

I'm trying to figure out an easy way to fade 4 (or any number) images and loop it so the last image fades in with the first image. I threw something together which is pretty horrible, and doesn't even fade the last image into the first. The code is included below for you to laugh at. Any idea how I could improve this? function beginTwe...
I have a Flex application that automatically loads the SWF and it's contents and displays the default progress bar like in all Flex apps. Currently I have a class in the application using a Loader instance to load an external bitmap to be added to the stage/canvas. I'd like to handle the loading of this bitmap in the Flex default preload...
Hi, I have a empty movieclip container in which I add movieclips as children. But when I try to get the children it does not trace/return anything.

In my AS3/Flash Player 10 app, I've got a movieclip on the stage with its own transform.perspectiveProjection properties configured; in particular, I'm explicitly setting its projectionCenter so that it has its own vanishing point (see this question for details). I'm adding functionality to my application so that if a user clicks one of...
Flash can use the RTMP protocol to exchange data between a server and a client. How do you typically access this functionality in AS2 or AS3/Flex? For example to use sockets you use the XMLSocket (AS2) or Socket (AS3) classes. Does the server-side RTMP software use Sockets under the covers? or is it HTTP with tunneling? The Real-T...
I've got a movieclip with two layers - a background movieclip, and above that, a mask movieclip (as you might guess, this layer is masking the first). Due to design necessity, the mask is animated on the timeline across 60 frames. The problem arises when I use an Event.RESIZE listener to change the width of the parent movieclip when th...
I was in the middle of developing a Flex applcation, and then I recently switched from Windows XP to Mac. My app is noticeably less responsive on my Mac than on Windows, and today I proved it's not a hardware issue, because I ran the App on my Mac and a Window XP on Virtual Box side by side, and IS much more responsive on XP. Things like...
