Not everyone knows, perhaps, but you can overwrite or add transitions effects scriptaculous.js very easily and quickly. Scriptaculous transitions, effects used in determining the type of animation, such as those are not implemented in Flash (I recommend a look at this PDF of the great Robert Penner ), but the net effect is - in fact - the same . In addition, the package Scriptaculous, some transitions are not present invence based in Actionscript. If we wanted to add a new transition to Scriptaculous just insert this code before using any effect:

From now on we can use the new transition exponential in all the Scriptaculous effects. For a useful series of transitions - almost a porting to Actionscript Scriptaculous - see Add some spice to Scriptaculous .

With the use of Adobe Flash CS3 Bitmap is so improved that is immediately wanted to create a small Paint. . We have already seen how to make a small Paint (see Paint in Flash CS3 Create a Painter: simple application for drawing in Flash CS3 Pro ) can support a true "eraser" - erase function, thanks to a particular use of Layer Shape and Bitmap . Let's say that Flash (as opposed to Flex) it does not allow encoding (such as JPG or PNG) it automatically saves the Bitmap images. However you can get around it using a server-side scripting and the ability to send data in POST Flash.

Flash CS3 does not ceases to amaze. Here's how to create the classic fog of televisions in a second with 10 lines of code.

With Flash CS3 has changed the way to read the parameters passed to a movie, or as params that as GET parameters. In previous versions of Flash it is a parameter was available as a variable directly in the first frame. Now, fortunately, we have an object that handles parameter passing, and not only: LoaderInfo .

SWFObject is a JavaScript script is used to insert Flash content in Web pages Its main function is to eliminate the request to activate the control by the Microsoft Internet Explorer (which, by the way, is being discontinued - see here ) and, more interestingly, the ability to automatically check and install Flash Player if required. SWFObject can be considered a good alternative to the kit to install / detect supplied by the same Adobe Flash is generated inside the IDE (in all its versions). With version 2.0 , SWFObject improves its performance and its use. As stated on official documentation , moved to Google Code, new in this release are so many as to make it NOT compatible with previous versions. This results in virtually a complete revision of the Code for those who decide to upgrade a previous version of SWFObject 2.0.

The script is now aligned to the latest standards, both from the syntactic point of view that "non-intrusive." It supports all previous features such as quick installation of the Flash Player, with a code more clear and easy to use. The change of parameters, for example, JavaScript to Flash Player (and therefore to our movie) is now much lighter and versatile. Also introduced were two main modes: static and dynamic, depending on the type and page design process that we are doing.

Bon and really liked it because it is the online tool that generates code for SWFObject us.

By turning on various blog (thanks Frank) and through discussions with Julius , I realized that, in addition to the extreme interest in Adobe AIR , there is also much confusion, and rightly so. Both developers and users continue to not be clear what it is, what you serve and how developments in Adobe AIR . I decided, therefore, to gather the various threads in this sort of FAQ to try to clear a little 'what is actually hiding behind Adobe AIR.

Of all the libraries 'Web 2.0' available, scriptaculous is certainly the most poorly documented! On the official website, often slow, the documentation is incomplete, poorly made ​​and difficult to use. With the latest releases, then, some new features are completely missing, just as the new core effect Tween (Effect.Tween). The latter, similarly to Tween in Flash, allows you to manipulate custom transitions. SYNOPSIS Its basis is the following:

Would you like to take a "pistol" on your screen? Without destroying really, of course Here is an AIR application that allows you to do so. For now, the current development in Dreamweaver and HTML / Javascript. Coming soon, weather permitting, I'll try to re-write it entirely in Flash. This "funny" (I hope) application actually serves to demonstrate the features of "Desktop" AIR. The effect is achieved by exploiting the ability sostanzialemte Adobe AIR to create windows (Window) completely transparent. Launching the application, in fact, you will not see on the screen, except that clicking with the mouse will produce a nice "hole" in the video

A great innovation introduced with Actionscript 3.0 is to be able to list all objects (including shape drawn at the time) present in a container ( DisplayObjectContainer ). In fact it was now that Adobe introduced this feature. I had always complained about this lack, especially since going to debug the Flash environment was able to carry it out quietly but remained completely inaccessible from code!
