Have a local SWF but no FLA? Need to know the width, height, swf version, actionscript version or framerate?
You can use this tool to load in your SWF and find out everything you need to know.
It works with Flash Movies using ActionScript 2.0 or 3.0 and will tell you instantly all the information you need to know about your SWF.

Dragging in Papervision 3D – example

UPDATE 29/09/09: This technique is possibly no longer valid with the latest version of Papervision3D.


Dragging in Papervision example

Here is a small example I put together quickly today to demonstrate how to drag in 3D using Papervision and the InteractiveUtils.getMapCoordAtPointDO3D function.
Since my last post on this in December last year, the Papervision getMapCoordAtPointDO3D method returned object’s x and y values seemed to have changed by a factor of 36.

UPDATE 29/09/09: This technique is possibly no longer valid with the latest version of Papervision3D.

private function _updateDrag(e:Event):void 
{
    // get the update position on the plane
    var obj:Object = InteractiveUtils.getMapCoordAtPointDO3D(_selectedPlane, 
                                        _selectedPlane.container.mouseX, 
                                        _selectedPlane.container.mouseY)
    // move the dragged plane to the new postion with the offset                
    _selectedPlane.x = _selectedPlane.x + obj.x * 36 - _drag_X_offset;
    _selectedPlane.y = _selectedPlane.y - obj.y * 36  + _drag_Y_offset;
}

AIR application – Transcription Tool (MP3 Player)

Recently I had to transcribe some music for a funk cover band that I play in. Transcribing is much easier when you can loop a section of the track and listen to it over and over. This isn’t a feature that any of the media players on my computer have, so I figured I would build an Mp3 player that can do this.

The Transcription Tool enables you to load in a local mp3 file from your library, and then loop all or a selected part of the track. There is an HSlider component with 2 handles (sliders) so that you can choose whichever part of the tune you like.

This is a standalone desktop application based on Adobe® AIR™ Runtime
