Thanks for the tip. I had to import assets from other Adobe Flash files into a Flash 7 project (need it to work for the Wii, thats why Flash 7) and it began nagging me with the “Enhanced Fill” problem. Thanks to your tips I was able to solve this.

If you’re working in AS2 the only thing that needs to be done to integrate this to the stage is to first create a dynamic text box named “number1_txt” and add the following:

sports.onLoad = function(success) {
trace(sports);
_root.uno = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
number1_txt.text = _root.uno;
};

You work your way through your rss feed/xml by changing the [0]’s in that code. but that code should give you something to start with.

Comment on Send multiple parameters to event handlers by Ion

I read the documentation about extending the event class and it says that “when creating an Event subclass you must override the clone() and toString() methods to provide functionality specific to the subclass.”.

I see you override the clone() method but not the toString() method. Isn’t this an issue ?

Math-based constrainers help avoiding if statements to check Number-values against each other, they take a lot of time to check by the CPU.

Checking against Booleans however mostly only takes one cycle hence almost unlimited fast.

i.e.: this takes only 64ms on my machine:

var startTime:int = getTimer();
for ( var i:int = 0 ; i < 10000000 ; i++ ){
if ( true ) continue;
}
trace( getTimer() – startTime + ” ms”);

while this takes 72ms:

var startTime:int = getTimer();
for ( var i:int = 0 ; i -1 ) continue;
}
trace( getTimer() – startTime + ” ms”);

and this one even 392 ms (almost 6x as much):

var startTime:int = getTimer();
for ( var i:int = 0 ; i < 10000000 ; i++ ){
if ( i <= int.MAX_VALUE ) continue;
}
trace( getTimer() – startTime + ” ms”);

Cheers!

Comment on RobotLegs and Flash IDE CS4 Injection by Gerald Yeo

Gerald Yeo — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 10:51:08 +0000

Thanks for the tip. I noticed, however, that the commandMap variable is null in the Command instances when published through the CS4 IDE. It’s fine when I run as app on FDT.

I saw that XML_CONFIG in the class SwiftSuspendersInjector specified 2 occurances of mediatorMap. Could that be the problem?
