Comment on Why is windowless mode (wmode) so bad? by admin

admin — Sat, 23 May 2009 13:12:00 +0000

Hi Niel,

Sadly outside of the flash movie I know of no way to capture the mouse coordinates or window position of the flash player instance, since the flash movie would need information related to it’s global position within the browser DOM (whether it’s positioned by DIV, IFrame, or just a html position). You should be able to get this position using javascript and submit it to the flash movie on update, but I’m once again not sure how well that would work (considering every browser is unique and there are many variables for placement).

For example this post on javascript coordinates of a div layer indicates that it’s a bit of a hack to get the coordinates.

Flash does spoil us with it’s simple power.

Comment on Why is windowless mode (wmode) so bad? by Niel Ruben

Hi Béla,

I am trying to retrieve the window coordinates of flash player in a browser. Sometimes I can find it (window mode I presume?) sometimes I can’t (windowless?). I use Win32 functions.

do you have any suggestions how I can do this? Coordinates can be relative to screen or broswer, I can make the correction.

Comment on Dynamic Masks and Flash player 9 / 10 by admin

Sadly, Flash player 10 now functions the same way as Flash player 9 on the Macintosh, which is to say the masks are now not functioning correctly.
I beat my head against the wall looking for a solution to this one and i believe that if you consider reusing a container with dynamic content, rather than a stack (as i did) you may have better success. It’s very frustrating since it worked perfectly on the PC in Flash 9, i would have rathered Adobe kept that functionality in Flash 10 and fixed the Mac.

Hi,

I came across the same problem.
In flashplayer 9 my mc.mask = parent.myMask works perfectly, but somehow flashplayer 10 doesn’t accept mask on parent DisplayObjects or something…
Have you found a solution yet?
