Help needed - containers at design time

I'm new to Flash, and I'm having trouble with some basic
concepts. Here's my project:
I've created a state map, with each county broken out as a
symbol. I can traverse the DisplayObject list and manipulate each
county as needed. That all seems to work ok.
The problem: in addition to the county symbols, I have
several other objects in my scene (text layers, logos, etc). I'd
like to move the county symbols to a container, so I can traverse
that container without the other objects getting in the mix. Doing
this in AS would be cumbersome and bug-prone. How can I create such
a container at design time? The only technique I could find was
selecting all the counties and making them a symbol, but then I
can't manipulate the individual counties.
Any help? I'd appreciate any advice. I'm not new to OOP, but
this is a very different world. Thanks!

1. Create an empty map MovieClip
2. Select edit (in the right click menu)
3. Create all the countries in the map MovieClip
4. Assign a descriptive instance name to the map instance on
the stage

  • Help needed with Report Design

    Hi All,
    Here is the requirement.
    Period Type(holds 2 values) : Payment and Vested.
    we have field 'Total Days' which is calculated based on "User Selected" Period Type.
    For example, When Period Type is Payment,
    If start date is less than or equal to grant date and end date is less than or equal to vest date, then calculation is (End Date - Grant Date)+1
    If start date is greater than grant date and end date is less than or equal to vest date, then calculation is (End Date - Mobility Start Date)+1 (similarly 2 more if conditions) ...we have similar calculation for Period Type - 'Vested'.
    This Period Type is a multiselect Prompt. How can this be achievable.
    Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Help needed to create Quik Time VR movies, step by step

    Hello,
    thank you for your attenction.
    I need to create Quick time vr movies, and I need to know the exact sequance of steeps to do it, and if the starting point I use is correct.
    1) I shooted a sequence of photos with my digital camera (for example: www.stebianchi.com/quicktimevrhelp/still-photo.jpg).
    2) Then, with photoshop (CS4) I choose: Automate/photomerge and I select all them to joint them in a bigger 360° panoramic one (www.stebianchi.com/quicktimevrhelp/pan.jpg). If, untill here, all is correct, the first question: in photoshop Photomerge layout option, do I have to choose one voice "auto, perspective, cylindrical, spherical, etc..." rather than anoter one of these?
    3) from here, I really need your help.
    First of all: the great doubt:
    My photos can not cover a spherical panorama, they're only a "ring" around a center (and not a spherical texture). To cover all the surface (or almost all, ok...) of my ambient, do I have to use a wider lens on my camera or there is a different solution (for ex a vertical photomerge?).
    4) Done this, I think I shuold buy a software like Cubic converter, to set and export the QTVR movie. Right?
    Thanks a lot guys,
    all the best!
    Stefano

    You can call your local apple store(find one on the home page of apple.com) and they will give you instructions how to convert DVD to iPod. That is what they told me, but from what I heard, you may need more than Quicktime Pro. Just call and ask them, because if you make a manual of how to do it, it could help me a lot.
    (I'm looking for a good DVD converter, already know some, beside the internet download ones)

  • Help needed with CVI real time

    Hi,
    I am new to CVI real time and need help related to this. I will explain my scenario:
    1. I have few configuration files (INI). Need to validate the files (range checking..etc) during start of the application.
    2. When user clicks "START" in the user interface on the host machine, I need to generate outputs (analogs/discretes...) based on the settings in the config file and read some inputs from other instruments. ( I/O tasks like generating outputs/reading inputs i am planning to perform in RT side)
    3. From the user interface,  user can also change the config files. if user changes the files, again file validation needs to be performed. After changing the files, if user clicks START, need to take the newly enetered config files to perfom I/O tasks.
    4. I am NOT using reflective memory for my application.
    I am confused in the following area:
    1. File validation during startup , do i have to perform on both host and RT side?????
    2. if configuration files are changed in the host side by the user, how i have to send this latest file names to RT??? I think i should not send file names, i need to read from the file and its contents i need to pass to RT....Pls correct me , I am not sure about this....
    3. If I have to send file contents to the RT, how I have to do that....means i have to use structures,..???
    Please guide me. Any help would be highly appreciated.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hey haari,
    1. File validation during startup , do I have to perform on both host and RT side?????
    This depends on the full range of responsibility for the INI files. If they are all needed simply to change what the I/O tasks are for, then you would technically only need to validate the INI file contents on the RT side. You could, however, validate on both sides if you wanted to. However, I would probably set it up such that I send a validation command to the target, have the target run a component of the code that validates the INI contents based on how I instructed it, and then return a message that says whether or not it met the requirements I specified. However, if you are concerned with offloading that process to the user desktop (instead weighing down the RT controller performance), you could FTP the file off of the controller and perform the validation process on the host side.
    2. if configuration files are changed in the host side by the user, how i have to send this latest file names to RT??? I think i should not send file names, i need to read from the file and its contents i need to pass to RT....Pls correct me , I am not sure about this....
    You can send them to the target over FTP. This can be done programmatically, through MAX, command window, or a Web browser.
    3. If I have to send file contents to the RT, how I have to do that....means i have to use structures,..???
    This is basically addressed in answer to question two. You would not need another structure in your RT code to handle the FTP receive component as this is handled by the FTP Client/Server communication. However, in the event that you successfully FTP a file to the target, you should likely send a message from the host to the target so that the target can respond accordingly and reload the file, reestablish the I/O values, run an idle procedure, or do whatever you like.
    Hope this helps. Have a great day!

    HI,
    I think kf3 can easily be created at query level itself without writing complex logic..As far as i understand your requirement kf3 is a differnce of kf2 and kf1.
    so jst make local formula and in that put kf2-kf1.it will give you the desired output for kf3.

  • Need help removing hard drive from Time Machine exclusion list

    I have a 1TB Western Digital Essential hard drive with about 500Gb of music, movies and other assorted data tethered directly to my iMac. I also have a 1TB Time Capsule that serves as my wireless router and connects to my iMac over the wireless network. I'm trying to use the Time Capsule as the ultimate backup device, to backup the data on my iMac and the tethered 1TB Western Digital hard drive via Time Machine. It already backs up all the data on my iMac, but unfortunately, Time Machine places the 1TB Western Digital hard drive in the exclusion list (which I understand is normal), but will not let me click the minus sign to remove the drive from the exclusion list (which is where I'm at a loss). Someone please help me find a way around this as I've been unable to find a way to remove the Western Digital drive from the exclusion list and have Time Capsule access its data. Many thanks in advance for any help with this.

    gotham,
    Forgive me, but are you highlighting the drive in the list before you click the "-" button?
    Also, were is the external drive? Connected to your Mac or the TC. If the TC, then Time Machine won't backup the external drive. It needs to be connected to the Mac directly.
    Otherwise, you can delete the TM .plist.
    *Delete The Time Machine Preference .plist*
    Go to --> Macintosh HD / Library / Preferences (Note: NOT Home / Library / Preferences).
    Drag the .plist file labeled,
    com.apple.TimeMachine.plist
    to the root level of your Macs’ hard drive.
    Reboot your computer.
    This .plist file is automatically recreated at startup if it is missing.
    You will need to reselect your Time Capsule in the TM Prefs for backup.
    Now try 'removing' the other drive form the exclusion list.
    Let us know if this helped resolve your issue.
    Cheers!

  • DateDiff Help (Need time difference FROM Time 1 TO Time 2 - one direction)

    I hope I am putting this in the right section. This is my first post. Thank you all ahead of time for your help.
    I am new to both SQL and Report Builder so please bear with me and thank you ahead of time.
    I need to find the time difference (in minutes) between Time 1 and Time 2. I've figured out the basics in how to do this but I need the logic to work in ONE DIRECTION. Meaning I need the statement to find the difference STARTING FROM TIME 1 and then ENDING
    WITH TIME 2. I need the statement to always assume that Time 1 is FIRST and that Time 2 is LAST.
    Here's an example of my results now with a basic DateDiff statement.
    Time 1 | Time 2 | Time Difference (in minutes)
    11:30 | 1/15/2015 11:50:00 AM | 20
    23:50 | 1/15/2015 12:00:00 AM | 1430
    23:45 | 1/15/2014 2:05:00 AM | 1300
    Please note that Time 1 does NOT have a date at all and came over from its table as a simple 4 digit string so I had to convert it to datetime format using a concatenate statement. If it DID have a date then this probably wouldn't be a problem.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks.

    Thanks, Patrick. I'll look into understanding that (I'm still new to both SQL and Report Builder). Could you explain to me what it does?
    I was able to answer my own question only to find that it didn't quite work the way I need it to. I was able to make the logic work so that "if the time is 12AM then change the date for Time 1". However, I ran into another problem and realize that
    I ultimately just need to get this to work in one direction. Meaning I need it to find the difference in time STARTING from the Time 1 field TO the Time 2 field. Here's why (using the statement I got to work but only for 12AM):
    Time 1 | Time 2 | Time Difference (in minutes)
    23:45 | 1/15/2014 2:05:00 AM | -1300
