Hi
most of the photoshop users wanted to have a tool with in flash to convert the textfiled data to uppercase by a click as they can do it in photoshop.
so just developed a jsfl command to do that select your text filed on the stage and run the command it will convert all text data to uppercase.

let me know if any additions required.
save the following code using notepad with filename “uppercase.jsfl”

open the file from with in flash by selecting commands >> run command and file.

uppercase = function(selIndex)
{
var textLength = fl.getDocumentDOM().selection[selIndex].length;
if(textLength == undefined){
return;
}
var lower_string = fl.getDocumentDOM().selection[selIndex].getTextString(0,textLength);
}
var theSelectionArray = fl.getDocumentDOM().selection;
for(var j=0;j<theSelectionArray.length;j++){
uppercase(j)
}

Please find below A peer2peer video chat application using a new protocol introduced in flash player 10 Real-Time Media Flow Protocol (RTMFP). The most important features of RTMFP include low latency, end-to-end peering capability, security and scalability. These properties make RTMFP especially well suited for developing real-time collaboration applications by not only providing superior user experience but also reducing cost for operators.
In order to use RTMFP, Flash Player endpoints must connect to an RTMFP-capable server, such as the Adobe Stratus service. Stratus is a beta, hosted rendezvous service that aids establishing communications between Flash Player endpoints. Unlike Flash Media Server, Stratus does not support media relay, shared objects, scripting, etc. So by using Stratus, you can only develop applications where Flash Player endpoints are directly communicating with each other.

Some important tips:

The older RTMP operates over TCP port 1935 and falls back to tunneling over 443 and/or 80.

The newer RTMFP uses UDP and requires the ability to make outbound connections to 1935 and also higher port numbers in order to establish a server connection.

Running over port 443 and 80 UDP wouldn’t help, the firewall is likely configured to open up TCP 443 (HTTPS) and TCP 80 (HTTP) while still blocking UDP (Outbound UDP to be enabled).

The Flash Player can also be configured manually to use a TURN proxy, if you’re able to have the customer’s IT department install one to get past the firewall. In Flash Player 10.0, draft-ietf-behave-turn-08 is supported.

hi
This is how you can change the height of a row in datagrid, but to an extent only you will loose all your text if it reduced to a leavel less then font size to be visible.
so you will respectivelly have to change the font size also and dont forget to embed the font

datagrid.rowHeight = 10;
below is the CSS sample


DataGrid
{
header-style-name : headerGrid;
fontFamily: Arial;
fontSize:10;
fontStyle:normal;
fontWeight: normal;
fontAntiAliasType: advanced;
fontSharpness: 100;
fontgridFitType: subpixel;
advancedAntiAliasing : true;
letterSpacing: 3;
}

@font-face {
src: local("Arial");
fontFamily: Arial;
advancedAntiAliasing: true;
}

hi All

just a small code snipet

One day my COO of company called me and showed an error of Application I developed diabetesdairy on AIR 1.1. The error 3122. it is very embarrassing getting such an error figured out by your boss’s boss. It was my 1st External project on AIR.

Apart every thing I was not getting the same error trying lot of times on my laptop and neither on my colleague’s system. Some how it came to mind and I started thinking the difference between my system and my COO’s System suddenly realized it was vista.
Then I tried it on vista and realized the database is read only. So got a solution will have to keep the database in my documents to overcome this or will have to allow the Application folder to edit database by removing the readonly and also by giving the full rights to user in using securities from properties of app folder so  finally got the answer.

So Please use My Documents to store your data base for air app as vista dosent allow you to make modifications in program files folder or provide necessary info to change security settings
check here for details on errors

Just sharing couple of links i use when i look around for some code samples for prototyping when i feel lazy to write all my self

Hi all well I am not very sure about this for now as I have a year experience with AS3, however would like sketch some points over it pros and cons as per my observation.

Number of lines code is much more then the existing coding for some basic features
i.e. ealier to load a external swf/image we just used 1 line and we need to know only the loadmovie/loadmovienum syntax where as now we have to use a loader,urlrequest and different other classes for listeners.
someClip.loadMovie("foo.swf");

In ActionScript 3.0, you use this code:

var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest(“foo.swf”));
someClip.addChild(loader);

I find as2 and as1 comparatively easy to code for any kind of prototyping this may be solely due to reason that I have much more experience in AS2 on the other side AS3 I have to look in to new features every time I need some thing new.

The ActionScript 3.0 code is much shorter, and much more intuitive in some cases.
E4x the best thing in AS3 the fatest way to traverse xml data. The easy way to play with xml. The flexibility of traversing xml with E4x is far much better with xml handling in AS2.

i.e.

<!– /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:”"; margin:0cm; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:”Times New Roman”; mso-fareast-font-family:”Times New Roman”;} @page Section1 {size:612.0pt 792.0pt; margin:72.0pt 90.0pt 72.0pt 90.0pt; mso-header-margin:36.0pt; mso-footer-margin:36.0pt; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} –>

<STAFF>

<EMPLOYEE><NAME>jasmeet</NAME><MANAGER>Singh</MANAGER>

</EMPLOYEE><EMPLOYEE><NAME>Marco</NAME><MANAGER>James</MANAGER>

</EMPLOYEE><EMPLOYEE><NAME>Graham</NAME><MANAGER>James</MANAGER>

<EMPLOYEE><EMPLOYEE><NAME>James</NAME><MANAGER>Dorian</MANAGER>

</EMPLOYEE>

</STAFF>

Suppose you want to retrieve information from an XML document such as this:

If you want to retrieve the second employee’s name in ActionScript 2.0 or ActionScript 1.0, you do this:

staff.firstChild.childNodes[1].firstChild.firstChild

In ActionScript 3.0 you do this:

staff.EMPLOYEE[1].NAME

The ActionScript 3.0 code is shorter, and more intuitive. Now suppose you want to get a list of all employees managed by James. In ActionScript 2.0 or ActionScript 1.0, you do this:

var managedByJames = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < staff.firstChild.childNodes.length; i++) {
if (staff.firstChild.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue
== “James Porter”) {
managedByJames.push(staff.firstChild.childNodes[i]);
}
}

In ActionScript 3.0 you do this:

staff.*.(MANAGER == “James Porter”)

Apart all the change whole framework changes have made the Flash player 9 more faster and managed in respect to memory leaks/speed.

I am still to add more in this and observe and still not in position to deside which is better as my approach and liking for coding changes with the nature of project.
Some times AS2 seems better and easy as compared to AS3 and vise a versa,
Things I like in AS3:
* much – much faster speed than ActionScript 2.0
* Binary sockets and binary data access
* A lot better text metrics with lot of flexibilty in test manipulations(i.e. imposible things with AS2 are made posible here)
* Programmatic access to sound spectrums (something i always wanted after my music mesher development in AS2)
* Good integration with assets authored in Flash CS3 (see http://moock.org/lectures/ActionScriptAndFlashCS3/)
* Free compiler and development framework
* And here are 50 more: Reasons ActionScript 3.0 Kicks Ass, enumerated by Grant Skinner.

*********
How ever the is no match between both in respect to speed/robustness/ flexibility and new feature I get with AS3

Six reasons to use ActionScript 3.0
