<mrmg> Don't use them! Use different movies and load them in.
<Flasher> change help font size: control+mouse weal :p
<Flasher> mrmg: scenes are usseful
<mrmg> They are a pain when scriping.
<mrmg> scripting
<Flasher> mrmg: i alwias have my preloader in a different scene then the rest
<mrmg> That's rubbish
<mrmg> Just use frame names
<Flasher> mrmg: also, all my flash projets are mainly scripting
<Flasher> mrmg: one i'm working now has 250.000 lines of code
<Flasher> mrmg: and yes, scenes help :p
<Romario> hey thanks for the link, i'm gonna check it out now. Yeah I'm very organized always naming and using folders- Just been out of touch with flash since say, 4/5 gotta get back to speed with all the new versions :)
<Mr-G> scenes are evil
<mrmg> Nope. You can't do things like _parent.gotoAndPlay('Scene1', 15);
<Romario> 404 on that kirupa.com/tutorials
<Flasher> Romario: flash now is way better then 4/5 :p you can do more and can use alot of cooding it it since flash 7
<mrmg> Romario: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/index.htm
<Flasher> mrmg: that is because your scenes add up, if scene 1 has 5 frames and scene 2 has 10, to go to frame 7 of scene 2 then you do _root.gotoAndPlay(12); (5+7)
<mrmg> Exactly, stupid!
<mrmg> Then you're not using scenes!
<Flasher> mrmg: also, ever hear about naming your key frames?
<mrmg> Yes, that's what I said to do instead
<mrmg> Mr-G agrees and he's clever and everything
<Flasher> mrmg: gotoAndPlay("name"); no mater the scene it's in
<mrmg> Erm, I've said yes.
<Flasher> mrmg: no need to load up other swf files in it
<mrmg> frame names way better
<Flasher> Romario: point is, be organized, name ur things and try to group them so you find them easier :p
<Flasher> Romario: also make a new layer for the actionscript and one for your actionscript functions. helps
<Romario> okay thanks
<Romario> yeah i do that
<Romario> plus i make sound 3 layers high so i can see it better =)
<Romario> my waves
<Romario> hehe
<Romario> all my flash work has at least 2-3 looping trance beats
<Romario> clients love it
<Romario> </sarcasm>
<Flasher> the way i have them: Functions/Actions/Holder. And the Holder keeps all the objects i need
<Romario> I don't know if anybody here has made one of if there is one that exists, but a well-written tutorial or article on how to properly ***emble your flash projects would be helpful i think
<Romario> some tips and trick
<anli> maybe I asked before, but is there some kind of reflection builtin in actionscript?
<Flasher> anli: flip your object :p
<anli> hm, flip is a method?
<Flasher> anli: duplicate then set _width to - something, or the _xscale to - something
<anli> ok
<anli> duplicate is something I can do on every Object, I presume
<Flasher> no... it's a word lol "flip" >>>> gives <<<< if flipped :p
<anli> hehe
<anli> the more experienced flash coder, the less use of the timeline, right?
<Flasher> well... depends what you need
<anli> ok
<Flasher> my main _root has usually 2-3 frames, but the objetcs in it have more sice they animate
<anli> ok
<fred^^> http://pastebin.sekati.com/?id=fadethingy@e4bc4-dc4f575e-t
<fred^^> is there a way to automate this code?
<fred^^> right now i have to click each item for it to move to the next image
<Flasher> fred^^: yes :p
<fred^^> would you be able to ***ist? :)
<SineTwo> just in theory, if i have a table on the left, and a "main page table" on the right, am i able to put a flash menu on the left, to alter the contents to the right? (containing an html file) - just like a frame...
<Flasher> fred^^: well, just reset the objects and retart when you need to... don;t really have the rime right now to do it with you (at work)
<Flasher> SineTwo: yes but might not alwais work
<fred^^> could i ask you later, Flasher?
<fred^^> im going home from work now
<fred^^> so will be on later
<SineTwo> Flasher: how so? i just want a menu with lets say 4 buttons
<SineTwo> and when i click one i want it to open up a certain .html in the other table
<SineTwo> or frame, if i HAVE to use frames... :\
<Billistic> is there any action script I could put on a button to get it to tell flvs to pause and mute and such?
<Flasher> SineTwo: o that way it will work no problem: getURL("test.php","frame_name"); i think, check the getURL function
<akan01n> when i create a 'createEmptyMovieClip' and then i 'loadMovie', a jpg inside of it, the image is what? a MC, because my code is not working to track _xmouse and _ymouse coord. but when i do 'attachMovie' from the library a MC it works fine, anyone now why?
<SineTwo> oh ok
<SineTwo> Flasher: but using a table may be somewhat troubling then?
<SineTwo> i'll check it out then
<SineTwo> thanks :D
<DekaPatro> how do i set up a flash policy xml file?
<Billistic> is there anyway I can create a button in flash the controls an flv
<Flasher> Billistic: yes
<Flasher> Billistic: but you will have to load the movie via actionscript, and prety sure your using some component
<Billistic> ugh, the worst part is I'm using a component so I could use the alpha layer in the video
<Billistic> can I load the movie using actionscript and still have it respect the alpha layer
<SineTwo> i think that's in the first tutorial infact
<JFlashOFF> anyone here using Flash develop or another external editor?
<JFlash> I'm wondering how to replicate the "list variables" command that you have in the flash IDE where it will list all variables your movie has
<Billistic> sinetwo, are you talking about me
<SineTwo> Billistic: yeah, check out the first tutorial with stop and play button
<Billistic> are you confusing regular stop and play with a flv stop and play?
<SineTwo> erm, nevemrind
<SineTwo> *nevermind
<equilibri> hiya
<mrmg> hi
<bugiam> akan01n: yeah, the image is placed inside the mc
<bugiam> man, i really need to learn to scroll down
<akan01n> bugiam take a look
<akan01n> http://pastebin.sekati.com/?id=Anonymous@fd87e-f819ad54-t
<akan01n> why the '_xmouse' is not showing inside output window?
<FatherHam> Anyone know the url of a website where it's just a page where people can add whatever they want?
<bugiam> akan01n: no idea
<JFlash> http://pastebin.com/511589 < Help needed !
<KpFRE> !find flv
<KpFRE> !find rules
<KpFRE> can you automate the process of creating *.flv files? meaning, let a server do it by itself?
<desolatio> !chuck
<Veritas`> !seen mjau-mjau
<DarkS0ul> Veritas`, mjau-mjau (~karl@61.47.109.130) was last seen quitting #flash 7 hours 2 minutes ago (18.01. 01:45) stating "Ping timeout: 200 seconds" after spending some time there.
<Sixer> hi
<Sixer> Shouldn't I be able to push an array into an array as a row?
<Sixer> i.e. myArray.push(differentArray);
<Sixer> If I do, the differentArray is added as a row, but with empty values
<F1> make sure you access it right
<Sixer> if I trace myArray, it outputs commas only
<F1> do a simple test on a new document
<F1> var arr1 = new Array(); var arr1_1 = new Array("a", "b"); arr1.push(arr1_1); trace(arr1);
<F1> you should get a, b
<KpFRE> if someone is interested, i think i found a piece of shareware that auto-converts vids to flv files
<MerZikain> argh!
<KpFRE> heh
<Sixer> a, b is shown
<DekaPatro> hey MerZikain :(
<KpFRE> flash probably now have vectoric blood..
<MerZikain> sup
<DekaPatro> n/m
<F1> Sixer, equally you can trace arr1_1[0], the output should persist
<MerZikain> i would like to know just why it is that when i use duplicateMovieClip it makes the clips just fine, they ****in exist because i can see the goddamned things
<MerZikain> it sets variables on them and mouse reactions
<F1> that means arr1_1 is pushed to the first pos of arr1
<MerZikain> but when i trace the ****ing things they show up "undefined"
<MerZikain> what kind of bull**** is that?
<F1> maybe if u cut the curses we can read your questions better
<KpFRE> MerZikain: a known (at least to me) problem. use attachMovie or place your duplicated MC's inside of empty MC's
<DekaPatro> the same bs i'm getting
<MerZikain> it works if i add each created clip to an array and go through that array instead
<MerZikain> but upon returning to that screen they don't get created in the same place
<Sixer> F1: Thanks, the error was on my part, I was pushing a row instead of the entire array.
<MerZikain> talk about strange
<MerZikain> the damned function is the same, my increment doesn't change at all
<MerZikain> 36.5 * i
<MerZikain> and i is always set to 0 as the first part of my loop
<MerZikain> so ftw
<F1> obviously you're doing something wrong
<MerZikain> you think?
<MerZikain> i fixed it, btw
<KpFRE> MerZikain: i had a bad expirience with duplicateMovieClip, was trying to give it function for some of its events, and it failed every time i tryed
<KpFRE> MerZikain: then i switched to attachMovie, and it worked!
<MerZikain> it's working fine for me now
<KpFRE> MerZikain: do so.
<MerZikain> i'm not a fan of attachMovie
<MerZikain> i always have trouble with it applying stuff like onLoad and onEnterFrame correctly
<F1> they both work just fine
