Google says that: displayObject.hitTest(stage.mouseX, stage.mouseY, true) is the way to test for the mouse being over a DisplayObject. This works if my movie is displayed at 100% scale. But if maximise my browser window so the Flash movie changes scale, it all goes to pieces. Does anyone have a way to fix this, please? Many thanks....

Am I missing something here or is the timer THAT inaccurate? Code function test(event:TimerEvent):void{ tra...

I am able to successfully post Flash content using FB.ui({method: 'stream_publish',....}). However, since my app must also be able to post to Fan Pages, I cannot use FB.ui, and must use the Graph API via FB.api instead. No biggie, I'd rather have a custom form for posting anyway. But it seems posting to a feed using FB.api('/FEED_ID/fe...
In the Lynda.com title "ActionScript 3.0 in Flash CS3 Professional - Beyond the Basics" Todd Perkins shows how one way of typecasting var xml: XML; xml = event.target.data as XML doesn't work, while var xml: XML; xml = XML(event.target.data) does. Shouldn't both forms act the same way? How are they different? TIA Steven ed...
