Flash mysteriously and partially disappears in ALL browsers – please kindly help if you have time!!
Hello to all supportive and knowledgeable Flash developers around the world!!
Please please please help me for this very mysterious and strange problem!! I've tried to shorten the description to minimum, but please kindly spend 5-10 min to have a read!! And offer any insights...I am very desperate for some helps
Some backgrounds
I am implementing a charting tool for my project, which is very similar to Google’s finance chart but much more tailored-made to meet different requirements. The charting interface is made up of the following core components:
Time selection panel: to change the time span of the chart
Measurement points panel: to select different points of measurement
Chart area: to display the measurement data of the selected measurement points over the selected time span
For example, the Apartment’s power administrator can view the total power consumption in Unit 101 of Building A, in the Pacific Apartment’s complex (a made-up name).
Similarly, the administrator can also “stack” up charts of multiple measurement points, having an all-in-one view like below:
Only the chart is implemented in Flash/AS3, the other panels are JSP, JavaScript and Dojo.
When an user clicks on a measurement point to add a chart to the chart area, the following things happen in order (briefly):
User clicks on a link (say, Total Amps)
Dojo event listener attached to the link picks up the mouse click event
The Dojo event listener calls an AS3 method (addChart) through the External Interface to add a chart to the Flash chart:
The Flash chart picks up the method call, adds a chart to the stage and reposition all charts on the stage. Since the stage height is fixed at 600 pixels, each chart added will be fitted into the 600 pixels. Eg, 1 chart on the stage = 600 px/chart, 2 charts = 300 px/chart, 3 charts = 200 px/chart…etc.Please let me know if you would like to see a picture before the flash chart is stretched!
Once a chart has been successfully added to the stage, Dojo will stretch the <div> tag that the chart resides so that each chart still “looks” like 400 pixels tall. For example, 3 charts on the stage means each chart is 200 pixels tall, but Dojo will stretch the entire <div> to 1200 pixels, making each chart look like 400 pixels
The above step is the same concept as resizing the stage
The problem!!!!
When an user adds more than 7 charts, the 8th chart will start have Flash contents disappeared. To be exact, I used firebug to increment the <div> height, and found that when height exceed 2924 (a magic number) pixels, Flash contents start to disappear. See below (the red-boxes indicate the missing contents)
The situation gets worse when continue to add charts, eventually half of the bottom chart will disappear.
Some pre-work I have done:
I have unit tested this component in standalone Flash movie, with 3 LCD monitors totalling 4000 pixels in height. I produced 10 charts in a single flash movie, and then resized the window from 600px to 4000px, no charts disappear.
This happens in all of IE7, IE8, FF3+, and Chrome. Although slightly different manifestation, but they all have contents mysteriously disappeared.
This also happens to GOOGLE's finance chart, when you enlarge the chart's <div> to over 10000 pxs (yet another magic number)
The funny thing is, however, when a graph has been cut in half, the visible half is still operatable. For example, if the zoom window as been cut in half, I can still move it, zoom in and zoom out.
Please allow me to thank you heartfully, if you have finished reading all of the above information. At this point of time, any useful suggestions/solutions will be highly appreciated! Please help! THANK YOU!
Hello to all who has, or are, reading this post:
Just a few things added to the "Some pre-work I have done":
I have read up this issue on "the Flash height problem" and have changed the parent <div> to also accommodate style:"height=100%". No, problem still persists.
I am using SWFObject 1.5 to insert the flash movie on the page and I have studied their issue/bug reports. I have not finished reading the list of bugs, but so far have not found any useful information. However, please kindly let me know if you know an issue with SWFObject making flash contents disappear.

The buttons 'New entry' and 'Delete' disappear on all customizing t_codes.
Hello All
I want to define one new storage location, but I don't find the button 'New entry'. After checking, I found that the button 'New entry' and 'Delete' disappear on all customizing transaction codes. who know why?
By the way, currently our system finished doing the conversion from non-unicode to unicode, do it affect ? Pls advise! Thanks!Hello All
I know the reason. that is we have 2 clients in customizings system , now the basis colleague are deleting one nonuse client. therefore the function of new entries and delete to those client-specific objects are inactive. After they finish deleting, the button will work well again. Any way, thanks you!

Flash Games and Videos stopped working all of a sudden
I used to be able to play various Flash games and watch videos, but I started noticing last week that I have lost the ability to do so on every browser I have installed (IE, GC, FF). I tried my other computer and everything works fine. I have been through many troubleshooting steps, talked ot the developers of the game I tried playing, and more. I still can't figure out what the issue is.
I'm having the same problem and there's no resolution to be found. You try and click on a video on FB (or play a game) and it says you need "Flash Driver" and I have it. Very frustrating

I was wondering it the life of the battery would last longer if you let the battery run down all the way and then charge it? Or to charge it whenever you have the opportunity even if it doesn't have a low battery? Which is better for the life of the battery and prolong the life of the battery?
I've had a iPhone 4s since March 2012, and it's battery is pretty useless now. I was using the app Battery Doctor (Battery Saver, Battery Life) by Beijing Kingsoft Internet Security software, which encourages the user to charge more often, whenever battery life drops below 100% full and greater than 20% full, and gives ratings according to the number of full, partial & overcharges done, but I'm concerned that charging like that actually results in worse battery life??
I now have an new iPhone 5 and don't want the battery to only last as short as the last one did

My Mac Book Pro was really slow at everything and would kick me out of my photos every time i got on them. now it won't even allow me to log on. i put my password in and the screen will flash white and go back to the login page. HELP please...
There is nothing wrong with your Dell, it will work fine with any MacbookPro. I have been using Dell displays for over 12 years with many different Mac models. I have two 21" Ultra Sharp displays working side by side to design a Keynote presentation right now.
The issue your having is with the way Keynote takes control of the video output to both displays, it sends the presentation signal to one and the presenter display to the other, this is set up in;
Keynote preferences > Presenter display.
If you want to show a wesite or another app on either display, use application switcher:
press the the command key on the keyboard, then the tab key; a row of applications will show what applications are running, choose which one you want to show. Use command > tab to return to Keynote. -
Since I've installed Mountain Lion, I am having lock up issues with multiple programs. MS Outlook has crashed and I've lost all my folders. HELP?
okay I've finally been able to get tor and all the other programs to work according to my plan the only thing that's still making problems is that iptables doesn't work as I want it to, when I start chromium without proxy settings privoxy doesn't seem to forward the information to polipo.. do I need to add another rule to iptables.rules in order for the program to know it has to reroute the information again or how can I get this to work? and is there any way to run rtorrent with proxy support?
anyway, problem 2 and 3 are still to be solved.
and does anybody know where i can get a good dansguardian blacklist that was not designed for 6 year old children and for which I don't need to subscribe? I'm still getting these partypoker popups -.-
//e: with iptables it's the same thing as described in the first post. https works, http doesnt. I get the output "Invalid header received from client." on http sites. still no idea why though.. (and the https-version of torcheck.xenubite says i'm tor unprotected while starting the browser with iptables)

Can anyone help please?
5.0.1 Firefox, application froze then crashed. Restarted it, but no 'restore session' and i've lost all my tabs. Help please?!?!
Done config:restoresession, and nothing.There shouldn't be any numbered sessionstore-##.js in the Firefox Profile Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
The presence of such files usually indicates that that was a problem with accessing the main sessionstore.js file that prevented Firefox from renaming the temp file with the number.<br />
In this case you may be lucky that the file with the highest number may have that session.<br />
You can try to rename the file sessionstore-3.js to sessionstore.js to see if that brings back the lost tabs.
If you use the Time Machine then you can try to restore a copy of sessionstore.js from around the time that you lost that session. -

I updated my iMac to Mountain Lion. All the files were deleted. I have Time Machine backups. When I restart the mac pressing Command R to restore it from the backup it shows the previous OS X (Leopard) beside the date of the backup that I want to select. Will it go back to Leopard if I restore it from the backup?
No, it won't revert to the prior OS X but you you may have third party apps installed that were compatible with Lion that may not be compatible with Mountain Lion.
