Flash Builder Won't Open

$
0
0

When I click on the Flash Builder application, the program brings up the loading screen. However, after a few minutes, the loading screen disappears and that's it. I checked my task manager and the program isn't open. So, what's going on? I even tried to open the program directly through the Program Files instead of my desktop, just encase that was a problem. There was no difference. So I don't know what to do. I don't have any problems with any other adobe programs. So why this one?

 

It's Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 Premium.


Flex Mobile project scaling with Retina display iPad (3rd gen).

$

Adobe et al,

 

With the new iPad 3 we now have a ton more pixels to utilize. I'm familiar with and have already successfully tested the AIR 3.1+ commandline compiler option (-platformsdk) to get Retina display on the new iPad. In ActionScript mobile projects the content is rendered beautifully on the new iPad. But with Flex Mobile projects, something is happening that causes it to render incorrectly. It's retina display alright, but the size is way too small.

 

Below is an image WITHOUT the -platformsdk build tag, that causes the app to be pixel doubled to fit on the new iPad:

 

FB_Non_Retina.PNG

Notice that it's scaled proportionally, even though the text and components are slightly pixelated. Not a big deal, but noticeable on the device.

 

This image is taken with the app rendering in Retina display (setting the -platformsdk pointing to iOS 5.1 SDK):

 

FB_Retina.PNG

 

As you can see, the text/components are rendered really clear, but the scale is way off. Obviously it's getting the width of 2048x1536 from the device, but it's way too small.

 

How do I fix this? I've tried changing the applicationDPI, but it doesn't fix it. Setting a width/height of 1024x768 does nothing either. It seems we need to overrride a behavior that causes it to fit everything in so small.

 

A little help?

 

Thanks,

Worker Question

$

Hi, I can't get any traces from my worker swf. I have a main swf and a worker swf. The traces in the worker's constructor and the message handler when receiving messages are not showing. In the main swf, the event handler for worker running works and the listWorkers function shows there are workers. Heres the code for the worker:

 

publicfunction Worker()

                    {

  trace("BackWorker");

                              bm = Worker.current.getSharedProperty("btm");

                              mb = Worker.current.getSharedProperty("mtb");

  trace("BackWorker " + mb);

                              mb.addEventListener(Event.CHANNEL_MESSAGE, onMainToBack);

                    }

 

                    protectedfunction onMainToBack(event:Event):void

                    {

  trace("onMainToBack");

                              if(mb.messageAvailable)

                              {

                                        var header:String = bm.receive();

                                        if(header == "HELLO")

                                        {

                                                  trace("WORLD");

                                                  bm.send("WORLD");

                                        }

                              }

                    }

 

none of the traces from the worker swf is showing and I don't get a reply from the bm.send() function.

 

Anyone know why?

build release files deleted

I recently changed from Win XP to Win 7 and had to reinstall FB4.5 on my clean Win 7 install.

 

Under XP, FB4.5 'Export Release Build...' worked fine. Under Win 7 it isn't working.

 

The normal behavior for the ERB operation is to remove all temporary files and leave the .air install file. Under XP, FB4.5 created a temporary folder (bin-temp-release) and remove that folder upon completion. This was the default behavior.

 

Now under Win 7, FB4.5 is putting the temporary files in the bin-release folder (not bin-temp-release) and deleting it before it has created the .air file. This causes an error of course.

 

I have searched the forum for a solution but haven't found one.

 

I desparately need a solution to this problem. Any ideas? Thanks.

How to access Flash Apps over https with a self signed certificate?

$
0
0

I have a Flex app that needs to access data from a SOAP web service over https with a self signed certificate. The app needs to ignore the https warnings, just as a browser would warn & allow the user to proceed. Buying a valid signed certificate is not an option for us.

It works fine over http.

 

How can I achieve this?

 

I read that URLRequest has a property: authenticate, that I can set to false. However, this property is available only for Adobe AIR applications from what I can see. This doesn't seem available for Flex apps.

 

I have tried this in both Flex 3 & the latest Flash Builder 4. Have the same issue in both cases.

 

Help appreciated.

 

Thanks

Flash Builder improvements, Syntax coloring, Custom format, Auto close

$

Hello,

 

I'm trying Flash Builder 4.7 but I see there is missing features in the Softaware.

 

I didn't found this important features in the preferences and I think you could add this new features in the new version of FB:

 

  • Syntax coloring like Flash Professional: Coloring the AS3 keywords properties and methods like (addChild, x, y, width, height, etc.)
  • Custom format code. In FB 4.7 there no way to custom the format code in AS3 but you can do it for Java.
  • AutoClose : Inserts matching bracket, paren, brace or quote
  • A list of color themes

 

I hope it will help to improve this software.

 

Cheers.

Flex 4.7 Tutorial Help

$

Hello Everyone,

 

I am new to the Adobe community and need help with a few things to get me started.  I developed an application in Android using Java but now I have the need to port that same app to iPhone.  I ran into this technology after doing a search because I want to avoid having to deal with two languages if that can be avoided.  I am trying out Flex Building and it seems like a cool interface but I am a little lost.  I looked for tutorials on the Adobe site but they are outdated showing how to create an app using the design view drag and drop options. From what I read that was removed from the latest version. Can someone provide an up to date tutorial or a book they can refer me to buy.

 

-Thanks

flash builder 4.5 database

I am using tutorials to learn database creation.  In my flex project I am able to use the database that I created.  My flex program creates the code and I can get the page to load with the table there and the input boxes to put info in.  the create table button shows up but when clicked it does nothing.  The code in the video show a dataProvider="{getalltableresults.lastresult} in the code but the code that is generated for does not have this code. here is my code that was generated for the button

 

protected function button_clickHandler (event:MouseEvent):void

{

var cookbook2:Cookbook = new Cookbood();

cookbook2.id = parseInt (idTextInput.text);

cookbook2.title = titleTextInput.text;

cookbook2.recipe = reecipeTextInput.text;

 

createCookbookResult.token = cookbookService.createCookbook(cookbook2);

var cookbook3:Cookbook = new Cookbook();

cookbook3.id =parseInt(idTextInput.text);

cookbook3.title = titleTextInput.text;

cookbook3.recipe = recipeTextInput.text;

 

createCookbookResult2.token = cookbookService.createCookbook(cookbook3);

}

 

then there are call responder getallcookbookreult and a lueObjects:cookbook for each id, title and recipe

 

next is the grid column array list

the this line

AsyncListView list="{getAllCookbookResult.lastResult}"/>

Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong

Can I upgrade flash builder to any latest version so as to have fixes available in apache flex 4.12

Project "" does not exist

Flashbuilder 4.7 Not linking or indexing folders in a linked source path.

$
0
0

Hullo,

 

So recently switched machines to a MacBook Air, OSX 10.9.2

Pulled down the project I was working on into a fresh install of Flashbuilder, with AIRSDK version 13

All settings match with other functioning setups from other team members but for some reason for me the project is not linking or indexing folders in a linked source path.

The specific issue is that when in a non-linked source folder, everything works fine, but when editing a file that lies within a linked source folder the programme won't open declarations, content assist doesn't work, etc.

 

so:

src |
        -> File.as

linked_folder | src |
        -> OtherFile.as


Everything from File.as works 100%, so it can see, interact with, and reference OtherFile.as (with autocompletion, and the rest), as well as all the other files in the linked_folder, and the other linked folders.

From OtherFile.as, when opened in FlashBuilder, it doesn't seem to even open as an as file.  When you open the autocompletion (Ctrl + Space), it shows none of the normal suggestion windows, no "Templates", no "Variables", no "Classes and Interfaces", or anything else.  It just shows an empty suggestion window, with no alternatives.

 

Have tried everything I can think of, but have never seen this before.

Any ideas?


adt -migrate does not work with a less-than-180-days-ago-revoked certificate

$

Hi,

 

I'm using Adobe AIR 2.6, with Flex SDK 1.5.1 to develop a certifiied application. My certificate has been revoked on 22th Dec. 2013, that being 123 days (today is the 24th of April, 2014). I have to release an update for my application, using a new certificate. Here's how I'm trying to do that, following the ADT support page's instructions :

 

  1. Create an update to your application
  2. Package and sign the update AIR file with the new certificate
  3. Sign the AIR file again with the original certificate using the -migrate command

 

 

So :

     2.I package and sign my update using FlashBuilder, as I alwas do

     3.I try to sign the air file with the old-revoked certificate using adt with the -migrate command :

 

adt -migrate -storetype pkcs12 -keystore "MyCertificate.pfx" MyAIRFile.air MyAIRFile-migration.air

 

Here's the catch : adt returns me an error :

 

The signer's certificate chain contains a revoked certificate

 

Of course it does. It's a revoked certificate.

 

Does anyone have an explanation, and better yet a solution for this, please ?

Converting an MOV into an SWF

$
0

I was told that I need to use my Adobe software (Adobe Creative Suite CS6 Master Collection) to make this conversion.  I have a customer that wants me to convert an MOV file to a Motion SWF file with the following parameters (What settings do I use, and how do I play the video back on my AVID computer?):

 

IMPORTANT GUIDELINES FOR PREPARING YOUR MOTION FILE
Motion Flash (SWF)
• Your motion ad must contain an action-script STOP on the last visual frame at least 3 seconds in prior to the end of your allotted time duration. (As for example, a 10 second spot must have all motion STOP around the 7 second mark – the remaining 3 seconds will simply remain stationary on
the last visual frame of creative). Looping files (repeating) won’t be accepted. Please keep in mind that this STOP command ensures your ad to run smoothly and will eliminate an abrupt ending.
• Recommended frame-rate: 15-20 fps.
• In general, avoid long tweens, 3-5 frame tweens are optimal. This also includes alpha fades and color shifts.
• No multi-level files or nested movie clips. Animation must be contained in (1) SWF file.
• Audio is not supported. Remove all audio tracks from the file.
• Be sure to resize and color correct images PRIOR to importing into Flash.
• Provide a "landing pad" (a single visual that doesn’t move at the end of the animation) designed to be at least 20% of the total length of your animation. The landing pad will enhance visual impact and provide headroom for an animation that might play too slowly.
• When exporting the .SWF, set JPEG quality to 50-60%, do not password the file.
• Avoid large amounts of text, or text under 10 pt. Screen images should be easily readable at a distance of 3 feet.
• Be aware that using programs like After Effects and Fireworks and then exporting the finished animation to .swf will generally result in poor performance since the export converts vector objects to bitmaps. Crisp edges and smooth playback are compromised.
• Review/ Test the final .SWF for color, quality and to ensure that all requirements have been met prior to submitting.
