Was looking into this the other day with Ian, only to find that there is no native support within Flash for alternate input devices beyond the mouse and keyboard. That really is silly. At this point, with as sophisticated as Flash has become (it can use your dang GPU for hardware rendering!), it certainly seems [...]
Well I’m a little behind on my resolution, but not too far yet. So without further adieu, here’s my latest mini-fun Flash project:
This movie requires Flash Player 9
swfobject.embedSWF(”http://chris.budy.org/playground/tinydrops/tiny-drops.swf”, “swf84c21″, “400″, “300″, “9.0.0″, “”, {}, {wmode: “window”, menu: “false”, quality: “high”, bgcolor: “#FFFFFF”}, {});
I was browsing Gizmodo today and came across this post:

Which showed me this image:
Which inspired me to play around in Flash, and make this:
This movie requires Flash Player 9
swfobject.embedSWF(”http://chris.budy.org/playground/rainbowdrips/rainbow-drips.swf”, “swf84c22″, “450″, “303″, “9.0.0″, “”, {}, {wmode: “window”, menu: “false”, quality: “high”, bgcolor: “#FFFFFF”}, {});
I hope to play around a lot more this year. I guess [...]
Ran across mention of this conference today.
This sounds pretty interesting and exciting as far as conferences go. Having all sessions recorded and cataloged for later viewing sounds very useful, no more missing out on a session because there were too many good ones at the same time. I also like the idea of this local [...]
Had to create an event for a project I’m working on, and after a search I found that you can indeed accomplish this within Flash using an undocumented AS class.
I read about it here and here.
The basic gist is that you create an object, you convert that object into an actual broadcaster via the AsBroadcaster [...]
man, i just pulled my hair out for about an hour getting to the bottom of an annoying issue with Flash. it’s one of those deals where i feel ridiculous in the end, as it’s something i thought about early on in troubleshooting but failed to check until the end.
Anyway, i kept trying to commit [...]
So while working on a project, i had to center the content pieces in the fullscreen flash. No big deal, just set up an onResize event handler for the Stage and center the stuff when that event is called (you also want your movie at 100% height/width, with scale = noScale).
While resizing the browser though, [...]
has some source files for viewing in his labs area. cool stuff, lots of game/physics oriented stuff.

a good script to embed your flash into a page fixing the EOLAS patent issue in IE and just a very robust script.
