Dr. Woohoo, Generating Artwork, and some Python code to massage user submitted content (specifically, images)

08/21/2008 12:48 am by Aral Balkan in

The cool thing about user submitted content is that you can't alway predict what you're going to get. Our speakers at the Singularity Web Conference, for example, submit and update their own bios and session descriptions on the site. Yesterday, I noticed that Dr. Woohoo had put up an image of one of his awesome [...]

Changing a cube’s material dynamically in Papervision3D

08/21/2008 12:23 am by Seb Lee-Delisle in Actionscript

It’s long been a bug bear that you can’t dynamically change a cube’s materials, so I’ve just committed a simple update that has simply moved Tim Knip’s clever material swapping methods from the DAE object into the DisplayObject3D. So now we can call replaceMaterialsByName on any DisplayObject3D! So you can use it by calling : cube.replaceMaterialByName(new ColorMaterial(0xff0000,1), [...]

Google Groups to Google App Engine: you seem a little shifty to me!

08/20/2008 06:31 pm by Aral Balkan in General

It seems that Google Groups has some seriously strict spam filters in place as they're currently blocking urlfetch requests for RSS feeds from Google App Engine applications. This morning, I started what I hoped would be a quick Flash widget to display the latest RSS headlines from our new Singularity Local Conference Hubs Google Group on [...]

08/20/2008 05:09 pm by Daniel Dura in Actionscript

This morning the folks over at AOL, and more specifically the AIM team, launched version 7 of AIM Express. And guess what, it is built using Flash!

How To Make a BitmapData From a DisplayObject/UIComponent

08/20/2008 02:59 pm in ActionScript

Today I needed to found a way to create bitmap data object from a display object. I found a solution in Flex Cookbook (http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/communityengine/index.cfm?event=showdetails&productId=2&postId=1682) and having this I improved it and made it simpler. The code follows… public function makeBitmap(myDO:DisplayObject):BitmapData { var myBD:BitmapData = new BitmapData(myDO.width, myDO.height); myBD.draw(myDO); [...]

FDT does work in Linux

08/20/2008 01:20 am by mr.doob's rss in

Seeing that FlexBuilder Alpha 4 still didn't have refactoring I had to search once again for solution with FDT on Linux. And well, seems that a solution for my problem has been out there for months!

I managed to register it without problems, but when I was creating a class I had this:

package com {nullimport flash.display.Sprite;/**null * @author eclipse_testnull */nullpublic class Viewer extends Sprite {nullpublic function Viewer(){null}}null}null

Maxim Zaks posted the solution here.

you can check this by going to Menu: "Window/Preferences/General/Workspace" and than in the "New text file line delimiter" Panel change from "Default" to "Other: Unix"

Big Pheeew!!!! Having to swap between FDT and FlexBuilder in some projects were driving me nuts... this really looks like the final "Bye bye Windows!".
