Actionscript developer needed

I'm looking for a developer, located in the Portland, Oregon
area, to help complete some refinments to an existing application.
Developer should have extensive provable experience in flash
application development, actionscript, serial communications,
socket communications, database access, and other related topics.
NOTE THIS IS NOT A WEB APPLICATION this is a stand-alone windows
app developed in flash. Please respond with qualifications.

I'm not sure how well it would work, but how about a simple
if statement.
if(count>59){
count=0;
}

Scripting /Expressions in AE: Similar to Flash/ActionScript?

I think about learning AE, but I would like to get an overview about the Software, so that I can decide if it's suitable for what I am planning to do.
I have little experience in Flash/ActionScript, but I can't get a picture what Scripting means in AE. Can this be compared to Script-Languages like ActionScript and Lingo?
And what is the difference between "Scripting" and "Expressions" in AE.
Thank's!
Roland

Expressions are layer-based formulae/commands that manipulate the layer and its content/effects based on factors such as time, random number generation, variables, and other layers and elements within the project. An expression can only change elements of the layer parameter to which it is applied - it cannot alter any other layer or parameter within your project, although it can "see" changes in other elements and react accordingly.
AE Scripting, however, is an application-wide scripting language, which can perform almost any possible function within AE, from creating new projects, comps and layers, to reading data from external files, sending emails etc.
Both are customized adaptations of Java Script. Both were developed independently of Flash Actionscript, so while they share similarities, they are not the same.
One of the best places to learn about AE Scripts and Expressions is Dan Ebbert's fantastic site:
http://www.motionscript.com
And, of course, the AE manual. Expressions:

Hi,
Use the below code to load and play an audio:
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
var s:Sound = new Sound();
s.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onLoadProgress);
s.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoadComplete);
s.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onIOError);
/* testAudio.mp3 is located at the same path where the .swf file is placed */
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("testAudio.mp3");
s.load(req);
function onLoadProgress(event:ProgressEvent):void {
    var loadedPct:uint = Math.round(100 * (event.bytesLoaded / event.bytesTotal));
    trace("The sound is " + loadedPct + "% loaded.");
function onLoadComplete(event:Event):void {
    var localSound:Sound = event.target as Sound;
     /* Play the audio */
    localSound.play();
function onIOError(event:IOErrorEvent) {
    trace("The sound could not be loaded: " + event.text);
For better understanding of Sound Class refer the link :
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/media/Sound.html
For how to load a file from SD in AIR 2.5 for Android :
import flash.filesystem.File;
var file:File = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath("music/testAudio.mp3");
if (file.exists) {
     trace(file.url);
     s.load(new URLRequest(file.url));
Hope it helps.

Flash/Air/Flash Builder development for ios?

Hi guys,
Does anyone know whether an application developed at iphone size, will automatically scale full screen to ipad if downloaded from the app store and if 'fullscreen' is set to true in the application descriptor file?
Most of our graphics are vector based and therefore scale fine from the iphone resolution to the ipad. We have tried publishing out our flash app developed using flash builder to .ipa format (at iphone resolution), installing it on an ipad 1 and iphone 3gs and it scales up fine on the ipad.
Does apple have any issue accepting apps at iphone size forced full screen to fit the ipad? Am I right in saying that any app submitted to the iphone app store will be recognised as an iphone app and present the x2 symbol if installed on the ipad, and any app submitted to the ipad store or as universal will automatically scale to fit full screen?
Essentially what I am trying to do is keep my iphone size app at iphone size, sumbit it as universal and just scale it full screen on the ipad... without having to redo assets or submit two versions.
I hope you can help,
Thanks,
D.

fullscreen just refers to whether the status bar is showing. If you have left the stage scale mode in its default setting, then your iPhone stage will scale up to fill the width of the iPad, but there would be a thin slice above and below the stage area that would be blank. You can perhaps just put a border graphic there, just off stage, and that would then be revealed on iPad.
For iPhone 5 you have the opposite problem, there would be bars down the left and right. So, have a border graphic off of all four sides of the iPhone stage, and you’ll be ok for all devices.
Another approach is to set the scale mode to no_border. Then the stage will scale to fill the width of the iPhone 5 or the height of the iPad, and you’ll lose a bit of the stage content in the other directions.

Can someone help with insertion of Flash actionscript 3.0 swf into Dreamweaver spry widget panel?

Working on a thesis project due soon... Created flash actionscript 3.0 swf for home page, text plus image, previews beautifully in Flash Publish, stored in my root folder, previews great when I open it in the root folder, dragged and dropped it into my dreamweaver code page, within a spry widget framework, size is perfect. and upon view in design or browsers or browser lab, I just get a nice empty white box. In design view, I see the F symbol and when I click play in properties, I get a message that says "Unable to find the plug in that handles this media type. Dreamweaver looks in both the "config/Plugins folder and the plug in folder for each o your installed browsers". I have Flash Professional CS 5. Reinstalled it just in case that was the issue with the plug in and didn't resolve the problem. Dreamweaver version is CS5. Using a template with spry widget panels. Before I inserted the swf, the preview in browsers and browser lab was fine on the spry widget and background. PC is windows, 32 bit, with ms office suite 2010 upgrade on it. Appreciate any advice.

my first trace on the hz position and vt position outputs but the trace for "scroll positions" and "new scroll positions" is not outputting.
i recieve this output when i click the 'next' and 'back' buttons within the menu9.SWF.
[Event type="iwannaresetscrolling" bubbles=true cancelable=false eventPhase=2]
does this seem right?
import fl.events.ScrollEvent;
aSp.setSize(600, 350);
function scrollListener(event:ScrollEvent):void {
trace("horizontalScPosition: " + aSp.horizontalScrollPosition +
       ", verticalScrollPosition = " + aSp.verticalScrollPosition);
aSp.addEventListener(ScrollEvent.SCROLL, scrollListener);
function completeListener(event:Event):void {
trace(event.target.source + " has completed loading.");
// Add listener.
aSp.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeListener);
aSp.addEventListener("main swf", scrollResetListener);
function scrollResetListener(event:Event):void {
     trace("Scroll positions", aSp.horizontalScrollPosition,aSp.verticalScrollPosition)
     aSp.horizontalScrollPosition = aSp.verticalScrollPosition = 0;
     trace("New scroll positions", aSp.horizontalScrollPosition,aSp.verticalScrollPosition)
aSp.source = "menu9.swf";

ActionScript developer entry level position essential skills

hi,
I would like to know the essential skills needed to have
entry level actionscript developer jobs ?
Thanks

Depends on the company I guess. Whether they want someone
with experience or not. A basic to intermediate knowledge of Flex
Builder is required as well as intermediate to advanced knowledge
of actionscript 3.0 .
AS3 is OO so a basic knowledge of OO-programming is
preferable.

Purchasing a new PC for Adobe/Flash/Photoshop development. Suggestions?

Hi,
I'm new here and I'm getting ready to start some heavy Photoshop/Flash/Flex development. My current PC is is pretty slow for any sort of flash/photoshop work, but it's been so long since I've bought a new system that I'm not really sure what is available/the norm for this sort of use.
I'm looking to spend 300-500 for just the tower; I don't need the OS (already have the OS install discs) and I don't need a monitor/mouse/keyboard. Any suggestions on a system/minimum specs for a system?
Thanks

The HP dv7tqe has the ability for 2 HDD and has the new Sandy Bridge 2630QM i7, but the downfall is no USB 3.0, not a huge problem till I want something that uses it,
Which would be? Unless you plan to use an external disk as your primary working drive this is a non-issue and I'm sure you could by a PC Card USB3 exteneder, if ever needed. Following your logic, nobody should buy a notebook before 2012, just because until then Apple have exclusive rights to Thunderbolt, which of course is utter nonsense. Would an average user ever even exploit this theoretical bandwidth? Same for your USB 3. So in fairness, buy what you need now, not what you may need next year...
and it has the Radeon HD 6570 with 1 gig of DDR5 ram. This video card isn't that good, but I was wondering if it was good enough to use with Photoshop and illustrator.
*LOL* You know, 10 years ago people would have killed for it. You have a completely wrong impression of how much PS uses OpenGL features. that card wil ldo just fine, as long as its driver and configuration are compatible with PS.

Problems Flash Media Development Server 4.5

I have just downloaded Flash Media Development Server 4.5 on Windows. This was not an upgrade from 3.5 or 4.0 for example. My problem is when i go to start>Programs>Flash Media 4.5>Start Flash Media Server for some reason i am unable to login but when i go in my web browser i type in localhost URL i can login. Why is this? I think I installed the Flash Media Server correctly any advice would be appreciated.
Thank You in Advance

Hi,
Couple of things :
1. When you say you go to start>Programs>Flash Media 4.5>Start Flash Media Server you're unable to login, where exactly do you expect to login? This only starts your FMS server
2. When you type your localhost in the browser, then the FMS start page is loaded.
3. If you have installed in the default path then your FMS files will be installed in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flash Media Server 4.5. Let me know if you can find them there. If you haven't done a default installation, then check under the path you've provided during installation.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Apurva

Captivate progress bar controlled by Flash Actionscript

Hi,
I am currently working on a project where I need to load multiple captivate files (topics) into a Flash interface to create an e-Learning module. I have greated a progress indicator within the Flash interface which indicates how far through the module you are. This is working correctly, however I would like to display more information.
Currently it only moves the progress indicator when a particular topic (captivate swf) has been viewed (if I have viewed 4 topics out of 10 it would show 40%). What I would like to do is also make the progress indicator move when the user moves to a new slide within the captivate movie (if I have viewed 4 out of 10 topics, and viewed 5 out of 10 slides of the current captivate movie it would show 45%).
As I mentioned the multiple captivate movies are being loaded into Flash, and that is where the progress indicator is currently sitting (controlled by Actionscript). Is there any way of Flash finding out when the user has navigated to a new slide within Captivate? I have noticed in the output that every time a new slide is viewed the following code is displayed to the output:
Branching::script:;;
deepak branching : scripteval:[object Object];
Does anyone know what this action/function that Captivate is calling is? Can I call a listener function testing for this action/function?
Kind regards,
Duncan

Hi Duncan,
The "deepack" output is a trace function the developer put inside of Captivate 4 for testing purposes I believe and doesn't serve any other purpose. There is a Captivate 4 system variable available from the Project>Actions>Variables menu that will track the current frame(slide) within Captivate. If you load the published captivate .swf file into Flash, you can access this variable by targeting the instance of the loaded .swf movie and then the name of the variable.

Using Flash to develop to games and mobile apps

This semester I registered for an online course called Motion Graphics with my college.
The course was supposed to be an introduction to Adobe Flash and Adobe After Effects.
I signed up for the class specifically because I wanted to learn Adobe Flash to create games and mobile apps.
Unfortunately, it turns out that as of this semester my college is phasing out Adobe Flash from all of its courses,
and the course I signed up for is now only teaching After Effects and won't be teaching Flash at all.
I asked the course instructor about this, and she said it was because "flash can no longer work with creating many "apps" and other applications do not except flash." [sic]
Is this even a factual statement?
My college still offers several Java-related courses, but I really would have preferred to learn Flash and ActionScript instead.
I suppose my primary question here is:
Would it be better to learn Flash or to learn Java to create apps and games that can run on all of the most common platforms (e.g. Android, iOS, Windows)?

To be on topic, the course is about "motion graphics", and After Effects is an excellent, highly used tool in that trade. When creating video, Flash is used much less because it's very inferior. Again, in "motion graphics". With a robust expression scripting language in After Effects, Flash lost its footing in this department. Flash was probably only previously part of that course to deploy your video to the web, but it's not necessary or desirable due to (as kglad mentioned) Adobe discontinued Flash Player for mobile. Your target just changed to outputting MP4.
What you want to do, make apps, is a completely different world. Adobe AIR SDK is a great, frequently updated runtime that I've made dozens of apps with. Java is used with the Android SDK to make native Android apps. Objective-C with Xcode and the iOS SDK is used to make native iOS apps. Visual Studio and Azure (or HTML5/JS/CSS) are used to make Windows apps. The big difference here is the AIR SDK can get a good return on investment from re-using most of the code base of your app (depending on its type) by its scripting language porting to Android, iOS (and I think still Blackberry tabs), not Windows however.
If you want to make apps, you took the wrong class.
There are numerous frameworks out there similar to AIR that can deploy to multiple targets that are worth consideration on their own. From specific frameworks (like game-oriented) such as Unity to extremely abstract (used for anything) like Phonegap and standard HTML5 web development.
I haven't used Flash to make anything like a website in almost a decade. It's strictly been device apps, desktop apps, kiosks and product demonstrations. It's an extremely capable IDE for just about everything, except modern motion graphics.
