Director 11 and Actionscript 3

I have trouble getting to Action Script 3 Flash movies to run in Director 11. I am aware that you should not use Flash components and could avoid this. Can someone point me in the direction of a detailed explaining best practices for making AS3 Flash and Director 11 run together? or a list of what does not?

Thank you, I do not know if what you mean by "AS3 routines. Do you mean the actionscript code that is part of a function defined by the user or an any external actionscript?

You cannot use AS3 all in Director 11.
The AVM2 is present, but is not operational.

  • Director 11 and MIAW

    Hello

    Excuse for my English...

    I have an old application with Director 8 and I need to do some chenges, but now I have Director 11. When I save this application with version 11, I have an error with MIAW

    Code:

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Window (Finestra). WindowType = member ("Fondo")
    Window (Finestra). Rect = Rect (0,0,1920,1080)
    Open the window Finestra
    MoveToFront window Finestra

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Fondo is a 1-bit Bitmap

    Can someone help me on this migration

    Thank you.

    There were a lot of changes since version 9 to 10 in how windows are addressed. The "windowType" was abandoned, but the definition of a mask of window is in a more easy way.

    Open your D11 source file, activate the window of the scene with no selected sprites. Open the property inspector, and you should see a tab called model to display. Activate this and under appearance Options below, select your member of the cast in the menu mask drop-down (the bitmap must be imported in this file, if it isn't already). You can also uncheck Visible under the title bar Options so that no title bar is displayed. Save the file. Now, when you open it as a MIAW, it should display with the properties that you have selected in this dialog box.

    Opening a window has changed a little too:

    on mouseUp me
      tWindow = window().new("Finestra")
      tWindow.filename = "@/finestra"
      tWindow.rect=rect(0,0,1920,1080)
      tWindow.open()
      tWindow.moveToFront()
    end
    
  • transition between Director MX and Director 11

    I had a Director MX program that worked perfectly. I converted it to Director 11 and it works very well in the app, but when I create a projector to run it by itself. I get a script error that comes up when I run it in the program. My guess is that it has something to do with my e/s file, but it's just a hunch. I get the following error message when I first start the program of "Director Player error. Symbol expected. < empty >. Script error. Continue? "I don't know how to debug this because there is no debugger, once you have made a projector, and it works very well in Director 11 enforcement program. Please help advise how I can do this job. Thank you, Janet

    It is integrated to the Director. You can add the xtra to your projector by

  • Color change of the motion tween and actionscript

    Hello, I'm pretty new to flash and actionscript, having recently been introduced to Flash MX. Everything flowed smoothly so far. Here's the scenario:

    I create a new document and create a symbol of video Clip, then add a motion tween. So far so good. Can I edit the symbol and on the first frame of the clip add action "_alpha = 50";. All of a sudden the motion tween stops working.

    You can find a minimal fla file that exposes the issue here: tweenproblem.fla

    This problem me totally baffled, that actions like stop(), gotoAndPlay() to the same place and do not affect the interpolation, while other actions of color (for example Color.setTransform) show the same behavior. All reviews are much appreciated!

    Thanks a lot for your time kglad, but I managed to find a workaround for the problem in simply by converting the symbol to a symbol again. It seems that only interpolations in the immediate parent are affected, so the new symbol can be interpolated normally, while the original symbol is still affected by the actionscript code.

    I used it for the past month and it seems very stable. I have OS 10.11.1 and Director 12. I have not yet noticed any particular issue. If you have a specific problem, I can test it for you.

  • Rename directories, machines and disk files on my store of data, better practice?

    Hello!

    I'll have a go at cleaning our SAN. We have created a standard name and now I want to bury all the old sins...

    So, what is VMware supported for the following scenarios and best practices:

    Question 1

    How to rename the directories on our SAN?

    My idea:

    1. turn off the virtual computer

    2. remove the inventory

    3 Rename the file (mv?) on my SAN

    4 browse datastore in VC and rightclick add to the inventory

    5 start the virtual machine

    Question 2

    How to rename my files (vmdk and flat files) disk, disks in the system (C :) and the data on the disks (D :)?

    My idea:

    1. turn off the virtual computer

    2. remove VM disk

    3 Rename the file with vmkfstool (VMware KB)

    4. Add the disk to the virtual machine

    5 start the virtual machine

    Cordially Jens

    . I would prefer a method with the virtual machine is stopped, rename and configure, then restart the virtual machine. With minimal impact on the machine and the SAN...

    As indicated, you have a few options, which you have linked in the article above, which does with vmkfstools.  However, in my opinion, if you can take the time to stop a migration off line is the simplest and most effective way.  You can probably do two at a time without impact to your environment.  sVMotion is I/O intensive, so if you going that route, to just after hours or a guest at a time.

  • Difference between Director Ace and Ace Member

    What is the difference between Ace Director and member of the Ace?
    because I've seen recently a Director of Ace Ace adhering... (John)

    You didn't read the link I provided, did you?
    Director ACE are not higher than the CEA members, they have more things to commit to as 'ability to commit to participation in an honorary title (noncompensated) 12 months '...
    So, I can't say to John, but if we can't get involved in these things, you cannot be a Director of Ace... and this isn't "depromoted", probably less time for this.

  • Best practices with the virtual directories CFIDE and Jakarta

    Right now I'm going through implementation of our new virtualized ColdFusion 10 Application/Web/database server, and I noticed that during installation, since I had 'Connect all IIS sites' selected, he created maps of handler for each, but each also gave a virtual directory for "CFIDE" and "Jakarta".

    Best practices guides told to restrict access to the "adminapi', 'administrator', 'componentutils' and 'wizards' records under the CFIDE directory, but is - it safe to simply remove these virtual directories (and leave the mappings Manager) so that sites can always treat the types of file associated with CF?

    1 the site we have is the default localhost is linked to, I felt I would just let these virtual directories, since to reach CF ACP this server, we'd have to goto: http://localhost/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm

    I know that if a file from a site needs to access things like file CFScripts, CF will automatically take the virtual directory is there and create < script > tags use a src of "/ CFIDE/scripts" (which if I remove this virtual directory, would break the functionality, but assuming that I do not use this technology to other sites) It removes "CFIDE" and "Jakarta" is going to hurt anything?

    Look at the Guide of ColdFusion 9 Lockdown that Pete Freitag wrote.  A large part of it still applies to the 10 ColdFusion, especially security aspects of IIS.  There is an article on the creation of filters of aggregate demand which allows you to block access to most (or all) of the subdirectories in CFIDE.

    Regarding the Jakarta virtual directory, you need this one.  That's what allows the IIS connector to function.

  • The unwanted behavior of pure Android... different in Flex and ActionScript selection... Why?

    Hello

    I'm doing the light text selection behavior on my Xoom Android in different circumstances:

    1. in a pure ActionScript mobile app, selection and copy / paste is controlled by a control floating appearing on the screen without resize or move or nothing

    2. in a mobile Flex application, selection, and copy / paste is controlled by a bar of the user interface that appears at the top of the screen, pushing the entire down application, loses focus on my textfield, ballsing upward every bit of control I have further confused the hell out of my user whose finger is therefore more pointed at the piece of text , they wanted to select but rather something that is about a half inch above this point...

    Then...

    Of course, I want to get to 1. for Flex - for example: I want to allow the selection and copy / paste without loss of activity, without repositioning and confuse the hell out of my user.

    Does anyone have a clues how I can achieve this?

    Thank you

    G

    I have it. Two selection behaviors depend on the underlying skin.

    It works with Flex:

    skinClass

    : ClassReference ("spark.skins.mobile.TextInputSkin"

    );

    Where it shifts the application down, set a bar above and usually live with any interactivity that you would want to do with your selected text...

    skinClass: ClassReference ("spark.skins.mobile.StageTextAreaSkin"

    );

  • Problem with Javascript and ActionScript setting / getting variable timing

    Hello world

    The course

    I created a training course, which will run standalone on our intranet for internal staff. Despite the (known) limitations, I use Javascript to validate the form and open a window of e-mail, for the staff member to click Send confirm that they have completed the course. Without a web server or LMS to use, what seems easiest to obtain confirmation of completion of the course. The form itself works very well and we have tested it with some members of staff.

    I created a slide in Captivate that contains the form of confirmation with a "submit" button. I added a next button, which appears disabled until the user submits the form successfully.

    The problem

    When the user clicks on send, I call a conditional Action as follows:

    • If 1 = 1 (i.e. always do this)
      • Javascript call for:
        • Validate the form
        • If it is valid
          • Open e-mail window
          • Set m_VarHandle.Confirmation_Email = 1
    • If Confirmation_Email = 1
      • Select the next button

    Unfortunately, by filling out the form correctly and clicking on send, the next button is not enabled (the fine again active button). On further testing, it seems that the Javascript has finished running before ActionScript moves on the next decision. So when he checks the value of Confirmation_Email it has not yet been fixed and the next button is not enabled.

    Any ideas how I can fix this problem?

    Thank you

    Sarah.

    Hello world

    I bypassed this problem as follows.

    • Added a Clickbox that appears for 0.5 seconds with a break
    • Created a disabled button is visible in the output, which is displayed for 0.8 second
    • Updated the timeline, so that the next button (active) appears after 0.8 seconds for the rest of the slide
    • Added a second Clickbox located to 1.0 second with a break at the end of the slide (2.0 seconds)
    • Updated Javascript code to set cpCmndResume to 1 when the form is validated successfully

    This results in the desired behavior:

    • The slide plays up to 0.5 seconds and stops due to the first Clickbox
    • The user can fill out the form at their leisure and submit.
      • If the validation fails, the user must correct the form and click on submit
      • If the validation is successful, the reading recovery
    • When playback is resumed, he passes the 0.8-second mark. The following disabled button disappears and the next active button appears. Playback continues until the second 2.0 mark then paused because of the second Clickbox
    • The user can click on Next at their leisure

    Thanks for all the reading - hope it will be useful!

    See you soon

  • Buttons and ActionScript

    Hi everyone just registered on the forum today, really need help, would appreciate your help.

    Basically, I created 5 buttons on one layer. I'm now trying to associate each button to a Web site, but without success for the moment.

    In order to make it easier for me that I need to set each button in its own layer and insert the following actionscript code, I inserted one of my buttons, I realized that maybe:

    Stop()

    home_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, mouse click);

    function mouseClick(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    application of var = new URLRequest ("http://www.sign-technologies.net/");

    navigateToURL (request, "_blank");

    }

    Copy the following code binds my first button 'home_btn' on my site, what remains is. When I run Flash it works, but when I click on the button in the real web browser it won't go to the Web page, so I'm stuck.

    Another question: For convience sake is there a way I can have all the buttons in a single layer, but insert code that can separate one single button on the other? Someone at - it this code?

    separate one single button on the other?   distribute the buttons?   change the layer? What you mean?

  • Questions of beginners on fms and actionscript 3

    OK, as I said I'm a newbie, but I do not understand the difference between as3 and ssas. Not all, but most everything written everything I see in SSAS can be written in an external AS3 file. Which results in a me a few questions I hope you kind people can enlighten us on for me.

    (1) what is the advantage of writing a SSA file on an external AS3 file?

    (2) can I write a file in AS3 .asc or should I use AS1? Please understand that I use tuts of fmsguru.com and the "Programming Flash Communication Server" books "Learning Flash Media Server" (pdf). I'm not a javascript programmer, so I have nothing in AS1 seems to make any sense, unlike anything I've done in AS3. It may not seem like it to you people who are programmers, but for those of us who are not, AS1 and AS3 are miles away.

    (3) type of off topic, but a security issue. I'm not a 'hacker' and don't like the jolts which are. My question is on external ACE / SSAS files and swf files. When my fla is compiled into a swf file is my external AS files are external? I suppose they do, but then, what is the threat of the file swf be decompiled? In most of the projects I would, I could less keep if someone has access to my fla as long as they do not have my actionscript files.

    I do not know. Maybe for questions 1 and 2 I'm confused because I use equipment. Yet once, I guess while fms was built the javascript engine, it should be able to read and run my AS3 file. Otherwise what was the point of evolution of actionscript in a functional programming language?

    Thanks for any help you may have...

    (1) I did not get this question correcly - besides THAT SSAS can be in AS1 - so I don't see reason in comparison

    (2) there must be AS1

    (3) if you do 'include' stuff - I think that code would go into swf decompiler and compiled appropriate would give you the code.

    Last para - engine on the server side includes only AS1, so he won't be able to read and understand your AS3 file.

  • IK and actionscript

    In Flash CS5.5 you can use Actionscript to OS "pin up" with an (x, y) and (x, y) command?

    If this isn't the case, I think it would be a great feature for a CS5.5 version!

    Hello

    the documentation from adobe on the subject (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/fl/ik/package-detail.ht ml) suggest that the os can not be created with ACE but existing ones (IE created at design time) is controllable with ACE.
