How to create slick maps in Flash?

Admiring the new Flash maps I see on the web and wondering how I can make my flash map look as slick?
I can make decent maps in flash but would like to make transparent windows, slick dropdowns, etc.
I am not asking you to explain it all but if you could simply point me to a book or online resource I would be very grateful!

And what business do you have on a forum where noobs ask for advice? To point to google?

  • I need your expert opinion on how to create a map with multiple conditions.

    Hello.
    I need your expert opinion on how to create a map with multiple conditions.
    I have a procedure (which i cannot import or re-create in OWB due to the bug), so i am trying to create a map instead :-(
    How can i create a cursors within the map?
    My function creates table and cursor.
    Then it will have to check for duplicates in the tables (the one created and another table) - the criteria for finding duplicates is a number of fields.I then need to place few different conditions (if some attributes are not available) and it has to load cursor based on this conditions. The next step is to fetch the data into the cursor based on what attributes are missing.
    The next thing it will do is insert the data into table (if record doesn't exist), output the error in separate table is record is corrupted, or update the record with changed information.
    In short i need to re-create match / merge but with conditions, iterations etc 'built into' it.
    I can read up on available functions - it's just what would be the best options? and what would be the best approach to do so?
    In my function i use %rowtype - but cannot use it in owb - so what would be the alternative? i don't really want to create a lot of variables and then have a nightmare of maintaing it. are there any tips regarding this?
    having looked through Oracle dedupe - it's not really what i need because it is just DISTINCT.
    I would appreciate any help / advise on this.
    Thank you very much

    thanks a lot for your reply - i will look into this option :-)
    it is a bit more complicated now as i have to re-create the match / merge and then somehow 'tweak' it to achieve the result i need.
    At the moment i am looking to breakdown the package into smaller chunks 'functions' and try creating the map that way.
    Anyway, thank you very much for your suggestion.

  • How to create interactive map in SAP Visual Business using SAP UI5 SDK

    Hi,
    Please tell me,
    How to create interactive map in SAP Visual Business using SAP UI5 SDK.
    Is it possible to create interactive map using VB Control in SAP UI5 SDK..?
    if possible please any one let me know.

    Hi folks, one question:
    We have our development close moved and now it is earlier than originally planned. 
    That means that we maybe can't finish our convenient API and you have to wait till we will release it - early 2015 is planned.
    But there is another option:
    Currently we have a API based on json. The developer has to create json and  to transfer it to the Visual Business control.
    This interface is more used as a low level API and we are developing on top the more convenient one. So all the features are the same.
    It will stay stable & compatible in the future and you can build on it.
    Do you want to use this interface?  
    Then I will publish the documentation.
    Let me know.
    Thanks

  • Need to learn how to create a slideshow in Flash

    Hello All,
    I'm new to Flash and I need to learn how to do a slideshow with exactly the same features as can be found in this link:
    http://www.esppromo.com/index.asp
    Just like at the link above, it needs to play through the slides automatically once the page is loaded, each slide needs to link to a specific URL, and I need controls similar to the boxes at the bottom so the viewer can click on any specific slide they wish to view (I'd like to have numbers in the boxes though). The transitions don't have to slide across like this. If a fade is easier, that would be fine.
    Since I've looked online, but can't find any tutorials for doing this in Flash Professional, I think I'll pick up a book on Flash. There are some online tutorials that are close but nothing that is exactly what I'm looking for.
    I'm just wondering if anyone can recommend a particular book that covers creating this type of slide show with the links and controls exactly as I need it to be. I see these types of slide shows on a lot of sites now, so I'm hoping that maybe someone else on this forum has had to learn how to do this and can recommend a book they used?
    I was looking at Adobe Flash Professional CS5 Classroom in a Book and it looked like it may be what I'm after, but I am rather cautious, as I don't want to end up with instructions that are close to what I am looking for, but not quite right.
    Actually, I thought I'd be able to do this fairly easily with Flash Catalyst, so I updated to Adobe CS5 Design Premium. I found that Flash Catalyst can be used to create a slide show like this, but unfortunately it won't play automatically when the page loads and the viewer has to manually click through the slides, which is not what I need. I could be wrong, but from what I've read, I need Flash Builder to add code so the slide show will play automatically if I create it in Flash Catalyst. Since it's not an option for me to buy more software at this time, I've decided to learn how to do this in Flash Professional.
    I really want to learn how to do this. I expect to go on and create more using Flash, but for now I just REALLY need to figure this slide show out.
    If anyone can help out, I'd really appreciate it!
    Thanks,
    William

    Edit:
    i'm sorry. it is a huge work to type this and will be confusing as hell. i'm already up to 1 full word page of explanation. Though i am able to do it, explaning it in full lengh is ... well.. very hard. Way harder than it is to make your flash itself.
    I can however point you to some element you should read about how to make them:
    - How to use timeline in flash cs4
    - how to create a button in flash cs4
    - How to make "CLASSIC TWEEN" in flash cs4
    - How to use ActionScript 2 ( AS2) basic command like : GetUrl, Gotoandplay, Stop and how to put those script in the right location. ( AS2 allow you to put script directly on the button itself. however it is best to put it in the Action Layer that you will have to build in the timeline.
    - How to import thing in library.
    keep in mind that what you want to make is mostly a Logic probleme...
    - Image 1 click = GetURL X,
    - After Y time, Switch image 1 to image 2 with animation. Do the same for the button.
    - If you click on button 1 while being on image 3, you have to set all the reverse animation in the timeline, and use a lot of Gotoandplay.
    Hope this help you a little.
    I'm sorry. i really wanted to help you do it, but it is just a monstruous job to write all this.

  • How to create a map that is larger than the game in width and height?

    hi,
    i wounder how i can create a map(not the design) that is larger than the game in width and height, part of it will appear in the main page and anther part you can move to it after you press the arrow symbol, but the map is just one image so i want put it in line and out line the game page, and the out line part includes buttons and symbols the player can use, but it will be in line and the other part will be out line when you press the left arrow or the down arrow, how i can do that?
    and is that possible to animate it so when the player press the arrow, will give it action to start the animation in one sec, i know how to animate it if that possible but i don't know which code i will use for the mouse click with the arrow symbol, and how to use the same code in the same symbol to start anther animation depending on which part of the map is on?

    I don't know a lot about mask and masked layers and how to work with the normal layers beside i will use some 3D graphics but not in the background, i will explain all this to you to be more clearly.
    first i am using action script 3.0
    close ex,
    you have 2d map"image"  900*300 pixel.
    this image contains some 2d symbols when you click will go to anther normal map (anther normal layer) so they must appear.
    your game 320*320 px, and the place the map will show on 300*300, and there's basics objects will be in most pages including the page that show the map so i don't know a lot about how this will work with mask layers.
    so you can only see the left side of the map image and what it contains, while there's two arrows one to the left and one to the right there's three cases here,
    first when it show the left side(start from x:0 to x:300), the left arrow will not active when you press and the right arrow will start an animation that make the map image move to the mid side in one sec when you press.
    in mid side (start from x:301 to x:600) the same left arrow will active when you press to send you back to the left side while the same right arrow will be active to send you not to the mid side but to the right side,
    when moved to the right side the same left arrow will be active to send you to the mid and the right will not active when you press and depending on that,
    first how to make the large image appear with the three sides in the same place without effecting the other objects "like disappearing them" ?
    and the codes i need in the same left or right arrow symbol to make different actions with the same symbol when clicked depending on which part of the map is on.

  • How To Create A Map?

    I have three properties: sort, order, and offset
    sort=<%=sort%>
    order=<%=order%>
    offset=<%=nextOffset%>How do I create a Map?

    I want to put sort, order, and offset in a Map
    and then store that Map as a JavaBean property. First
    of all, how do I put sort, order, and offset in a Map
    after I get a map object:
    Map map = new HashMap();
    Well, in "regular" java it would be something like map.put("sort", sort);
    map.put("order", order);
    map.put("offset", offset); (assuming you've properly defined and intialized those three variables)
    I don't recall how to do it in JSP. It's been quite a while. <jsp:usebean> maybe?

  • How to create a USB recovery flash drive using recovery ISO image?

    This “HowTo” provides information and instruction how to create a USB recovery media flash drive using the Toshiba recovery ISO image files or Toshiba Recovery discs (DVDs)
    To create a USB recovery media flash drive, a USB flash drive with at least 16GB disk space is suggested (depends on the size of the ISO images or recovery discs).
    Note: Since 2015 the ISO layout has changed and a different procedure must be processed to create the USB media. The new recovery media type can be identified by the names of the ISO files.
    More info: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD4103KB0000R01.htm

    Yes, that article should apply to tablets.
    But if your USB recovery drive does not get recognized then it must be corrupted - you should be able to format your disk and perhaps try to see if creating a Recovery device on other devices will make it recognizable on your tablet 2.

  • How to create web pages in Flash?

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a personal portfolio website using Flash CS4.
    Understand that there are a number of ways to create web pages using Flash.
    One way is to create separate swf files for the web pages and load them when the web page is requested.
    Another way is to put the pages in separate frames in the same swf file or to use scenes and use gotoAndPlay().
    Another possible way is to create separate movie clips for the web pages.
    Wonder if anybody can advice the recommended way of creating the web pages.
    Thanks in advance.
    regards,
    ladybug

    there are pros and cons to each approach.  which is best for your situation depends on your specifics.

  • How to create a mapping...

    Hi everyone,
    i'm a new user of OWB so i should ask something basilar. When i have to create a mapping for a cube, and a table source is unique, i don't have to use a joiner, do i?
    While when shoud i use an aggregator? Always? Could you tell me an example...
    Thanks in advance,
    Alex.

    Use a map input operator in your mapping. In the outgroup add an attribute, mapp the attribute with the column and then you can start the mapping with an extra input parameter.

  • How to create an swc in Flash

    Hi
    I've searched around, but couldn't find a decent answer for this question...
    I have a set of AS3 classes (it's actually the code for papervision 3d), and I'd like to create an .swc library in order to speed up compiling. Papervision provides an swc, but I've modified the core library.
    I don't use Flex, or Flash builder, for the moment I'm using only Flash CS5.5 and the command line.
    How can I create an swc from this code that can then be imported into a Flash file as a library?
    From my search I'm getting the sense I need to use the command line tool compc, but I don't see clear instructions on how to do this. Does anyone know? Thanks.
    -rich

    If you have Windows as an OS, perhaps consider FlashDevelop (http://www.flashdevelop.org/) with the ExportSWC plugin (http://sourceforge.net/projects/exportswc/)? Looks like some people may be having some issues with it working 'right out of the box' with the latest release of FlashDevelop, but there seem to be answers to most problems within the FlashDevelop forums.
