AS2: rollover on attached movieclip - actionscript

The following is the chunk of my code that is attaching a movieclip (from timeline), tracing thisDot works so it is not the variable which is a problem but there is no rollover applied to the attached movieclip.
var dot_name:String = new String(Graphs[s]._name+"_dot"+i);
var dotObj:Object = new Object();
if (prevX != undefined) {
dotObj._x = newX;
} else {
dotObj._x = 0;
}
dotObj._y = Slide_y;
Graphs[s].chart.attachMovie("graph_dot",dot_name,Graphs[s].chart.getNextHighestDepth(),dotObj);
eval(thisDot=Graphs[s]+".chart."+dot_name);
Graphs_dots[s].push(thisDot);
thisDot.onRollOver = function () {
trace(this);

Looks to me that this row:
eval(thisDot=Graphs[s]+".chart."+dot_name);
should be this instead?
thisDot=eval(Graphs[s]+".chart."+dot_name);

How to extrude height ol3-Cesium?

I've got a GeoJson that I can load in ol3 without any problems.
var layer = new ol.layer.Vector({
source: new ol.source.Vector({
format: new ol.format.GeoJson(),
url: 'my_file.json',
})
});
My GeoJson have got a properties (let's say foo ) that I want to use to extrudedHeight.
I've done this in Cesium (see the Cesium exemple): http://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Apps/Sandcastle/index.html?src=GeoJSON%20and%20TopoJSON.html&label=Showcases
But I can't find a way to do this on my ol3 layer.
Any clue ?
Edit:
I've hacked a bit and create my FeatureConverter like this:
test = {};
function extend(base, sub) {
// Avoid instantiating the base class just to setup inheritance
// See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object/create
// for a polyfill
// Also, do a recursive merge of two prototypes, so we don't overwrite
// the existing prototype, but still maintain the inheritance chain
// Thanks to #ccnokes
var origProto = sub.prototype;
sub.prototype = Object.create(base.prototype);
for (var key in origProto) {
sub.prototype[key] = origProto[key];
}
// Remember the constructor property was set wrong, let's fix it
sub.prototype.constructor = sub;
// In ECMAScript5+ (all modern browsers), you can make the constructor property
// non-enumerable if you define it like this instead
Object.defineProperty(sub.prototype, 'constructor', {
enumerable: false,
value: sub
});
}
test.FeatureConverter = function(scene) {
olcs.FeatureConverter.call(this, scene);
}
test.FeatureConverter.prototype = {
olPolygonGeometryToCesium : function(layer, feature, olGeometry, projection, olStyle) {
olGeometry = olcs.core.olGeometryCloneTo4326(olGeometry, projection);
goog.asserts.assert(olGeometry.getType() == 'Polygon');
var rings = olGeometry.getLinearRings();
// always update Cesium externs before adding a property
var hierarchy = {};
var polygonHierarchy = hierarchy;
goog.asserts.assert(rings.length > 0);
for (var i = 0; i < rings.length; ++i) {
var olPos = rings[i].getCoordinates();
var positions = olcs.core.ol4326CoordinateArrayToCsCartesians(olPos);
goog.asserts.assert(positions && positions.length > 0);
if (i == 0) {
hierarchy.positions = positions;
} else {
hierarchy.holes = {
// always update Cesium externs before adding a property
positions: positions
};
hierarchy = hierarchy.holes;
}
}
var fillGeometry = new Cesium.PolygonGeometry({
// always update Cesium externs before adding a property
polygonHierarchy: polygonHierarchy,
perPositionHeight: true,
extrudedHeight: parseInt(feature.getProperties()['foo'])
});
var outlineGeometry = new Cesium.PolygonOutlineGeometry({
// always update Cesium externs before adding a property
polygonHierarchy: hierarchy,
perPositionHeight: true
});
var primitives = this.wrapFillAndOutlineGeometries(
layer, feature, olGeometry, fillGeometry, outlineGeometry, olStyle);
return this.addTextStyle(layer, feature, olGeometry, olStyle, primitives);
}
}
extend(olcs.FeatureConverter, test.FeatureConverter);
But it does not work... (and I do not know why...).

Titanium ImageView animation width and height

I try to create an ImageView in Titanium like this:
var animationView = Titanium.UI.createImageView
(
{
images:animationImages,
duration:50,
repeatCount:0,
width: '90dp',
height: '270dp'
}
);
On android it gets its size as expected, but on IOS, it simply doesn't gets scaled. Is there something, i'm doing wrong? Or should i do it frame by frame by creating the ImageViews manually then changing them with setInterval?
This is actually not a consistent solution, it should be a comment, but since I don't have enough rep I have to write it as an answer.
For starters I would try to give it a top and left properties.
Secondly, are those images retrieved from a remote URL? Remote URLs are only supported in Android. If that is the case you could do a workaround as you said in the question.
Finally, the 'dp' only works for android, so it won't scale at all in iOS, it will simply erase the 'dp' and use the number as "points", on non-retina screens it will be the same number of pixels and on a retina display it will be the double.
I finally decided to create my own animation class, which look like this:
function Animation(data)
{
var width = data.hasOwnProperty("width") ? data.width : Ti.UI.SIZE;
var height = data.hasOwnProperty("height") ? data.height: Ti.UI.SIZE;
var duration = data.hasOwnProperty("duration") ? data.duration : 50;
var imageFiles = data.hasOwnProperty("images") ? data.images : [];
var images = [];
var container = Ti.UI.createView
(
{
width:width,
height: height
}
);
for(var i=0; i<imageFiles.length; i++)
{
var image = Ti.UI.createImageView
(
{
image:imageFiles[i],
width:width,
height:height
}
);
if(i!=0)
image.setVisible(false);
container.add(image);
images.push(image);
}
container.activeImage = 0;
container.intervalId = null;
container.setActiveImage = function(index)
{
if(container.intervalId == null)
container.activeImage = index;
}
container.start = function()
{
var callback = function()
{
for(var i=0; i<images.length; i++)
{
if(i == container.activeImage)
images[i].setVisible(true);
else
images[i].setVisible(false);
}
container.activeImage = (container.activeImage + 1) % images.length;
}
container.intervalId = setInterval ( callback, duration );
}
container.stop = function()
{
clearInterval(container.intervalId);
container.intervalId = null;
}
return container;
}
module.exports = Animation;
And you can use it like this:
var Animation = require('...path to your animation file');
var myAnimation = new Animation
(
{
width:'100dp',
height:'100dp',
duration:50, //duration while one frame is showing
images:['one.png', 'two.png'...], //full paths
}
);
//start:
myAnimation.start();
//stop
myAnimation.stop();

AS2 Print External image

I have this script where I can print the movie that i indicated in the code.
function print_page()
{
var my_pj = new PrintJob();
var myResult = my_pj.start();
if (myResult)
{
myResult = my_pj.addPage("img_mc", null, {printAsBitmap:true}, 1);
my_pj.send();
delete my_pj;
trace("ok");
}
}
I need to know, how to print some image that is outside the flahs... clicking in the MC.... but i need in AS2...
ty for help!
This is the only way i sucess print external image with PrintJob() and AS2
#include "mc_tween2.as"
_root.myholder.loadMovie("teste_labirinto.jpg");
_root.myholder._x = 0; //i set the x and y position of image out of the screen area!
_root.myholder._y = 990; //
function print_page()
{
var my_pj = new PrintJob();
var myResult = my_pj.start();
if (myResult)
{
my_pj.orientation = portrait;
myResult = my_pj.addPage("myholder", {xMin:0, xMax:600, yMin:0, yMax:800}, {printAsBitmap:true}, 1);
my_pj.my_pj.send();
delete my_pj;
trace("ok");
}
}
btn.onRelease = function()
{
print_page();
};

AIR application: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. No idea what's causing this

I'm using code for the open source MP3 player Howler and trying to port it to a Spark MobileApplication type. I'm getting a null pointer exception and I have no idea what's causing it. I've tried debugging extensively with breakpoints at what I think is causing the error, and set breakpoints in the untouched Howler project but all the variables in scope seem to be identical between my non-working project, and the Howler project. The only thing I can think of is that Howler uses MX components and I am using spark. I've pasted all my code below (which is very long) but I've bolded the lines that are throwing the error. The error occurs immediately after I choose a folder in the browse folder dialog.

I'm new to Flex so I don't know if this is causing the problem or not, but the Howler app uses an MX:DataGrid defined like this:

height="310"
id="dgPlaylist"
keyDown="onKeyDown(event)"
dragMoveEnabled="true"
doubleClickEnabled="true"
dragEnabled="true"
dropEnabled="true"
dragComplete="onPlaylistDragDrop(event)"
itemDoubleClick="onItemDoubleClick(event)">
<mx:columns>
<mx:DataGridColumn width="168" headerText="Title" dataField="title" />
<mx:DataGridColumn width="160" headerText="Album" dataField="album"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn width="60" headerText="Duration" dataField="duration" textAlign="right" itemRenderer="components.DurationFormatter"/>
</mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
It has additional columns that I'm not using. Could this be the cause?
We are going to need the error message. Generally what you are experiencing is called a null pointer exception ( just like the error said ). Which basically means you tried to access a property of an object that is null. For example, running the following code will cause the same problem
var arrayCollection:ArrayCollection;
arrayCollection.addItem( new Object() );
To fix your error, you should find the object that the error is referring to in your code and make sure it isn't null when your program executes whatever line it is complaining about, or add an if-loop in the event it is null.

Flash: How to preload upcoming SWF while current one plays

I have a Flash slideshow that plays SWFs listed in an XML file. I would like to have the upcoming SWF load while the current one displays. I've tried all sorts of combinations of LoadMovie and LoadMovieNum, including creating an empty movie clip, but there's something I'm just not getting.
Right now, after making the first round through all the files, it transitions smoothly from slide to slide, but I'd like for it to preload so that it transitions without the "Loading..." screen the first time around.
It can be viewed here: slideshow
Where should I put the LoadMovie line to load the next file (image[p+1]), and how should it look?
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];
description = [];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
description[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
firstImage();
} else {
content = "file not loaded!";
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("xmlfile.xml");

I'd appreciate any help.
You can do it with the MovieClipLoader class. A brief tutorial can be found at actionscript.org, or you can check the docs on it.
