The black box that is the Flash Player - This morning I read an interesting blog post by John Dowdell highlighting some things that bothered me in the last week or so (and talked about on twitter).

Getting StartED with CSS - A few months ago I had the pleasure to get involved tech reviewing a book by David Powers on CSS — one of the technologies I used to work with on a daily basis before switching almost exclusively to Flash Platform development. I have to honestly say this is most probably the best book I’ve [...] No related posts.

Fontusoidal - It’s sometimes amazing how little code it takes to do something cool. The meat of this is just one line of code: _tlf.fontSize = _fontMin + ( Math.abs( Math.sin( _counter + ( _characterOffset * i ) ) * ( _fontMax - _fontMin ) ) ); It will run a little choppy until everything on this page downloads. I know, [...]

Predicting circle line collisions - In my previous collision detection post (in what I expect will become a series), I talked about predicting whether two objects would collide in between frames. This is to avoid the situation where the objects are moving so fast that they pass through each other before you’ve had a chance to see if they’re overlapping.

Multi-user gaming in Flash â?? Lunar Lander tests - Anyone playing my Lunar Lander game won’t know it, but we’re spying on them!

ASDocr: Simple ASDoc UI, AS3 Documentation Tool - I'm a big fan of ASDoc! It allows you to write simple comments in your AS3 classes, then generate HTML documentation from them. This is great in that it allows developers to maintain source code and documentation simultaneously, and it reduces the overall burden in writing documentation by reading the core API information from the code directly. Unfortunately, the ASDoc tool is command line based, and can be a bit of a pain to work with. That's where ASDocr comes in...

More fun with TextArea.setFormatOfRange() - If setFormatOfRange() can be used to format a range of text in a TextArea then why not give every single character it’s own unique format? --> --> view source In this example I’m randomly picking 12 fonts to chose from instead of going with all 295 fonts on my system. It took a [...]

TextArea.setFormatOfRange and the TextArea Change event - If you want to format the text in a TextArea then the TextArea.setFormatOfRange method is your baby. It’s very basic: someTextArea.setFormatOfRange( myTextLayoutFormat, startHere, goForXcharacters ); However, if you are trying to use TextArea.setFormatOfRange() method on a TextArea while listening to the change event on that same TextArea then get ready for good old Stack Overflow. That’s because [...]

Pibeca - Pixel Bender for Canvas - Let me say this first - I am not a fan of Canvas and tinkering around with this project I realized why I prefer programming in AS3 so much more to Javascript: my goodness - this language is a dirty mess, how can anyone get anything done with it? But for fairness sake - I guess there must be some pro development tools out there which I don't know about and my using of notepad might not be the true JS developer experience. So even though I think that compared to the capabilities of the Flash Playe
