A custom clip to run while flex application loads itself - apache-flex

Whenever a swf is loaded a custom movie is shown (by default a rotating circle), is there some way where I can have my custom movie to play there. If you have any idea in this regard, then please help.
Thanks in advance.

You can accomplish this with a custom preloader. Here is a very good example to get you started.

Building a Custom Browser in JavaFx 8

I am interested in building a custom browser in javafx 8 using the WebView component as a personal project. One of the features I hope to include is the ability to play flash video / sound. I'm not sure where to start so I'm hoping someone here could give me a few pointers as to how I'd go about accomplishing this.
Also, if you're aware of any resources out there that might come in handy when it comes to adding additional functionality I'd appreciate it. I'm hoping to make this fairly full featured.
Thanks in advance!
I'd stop this project because WebView does not support flash videos.

It looks like I found a component that meets my requirements. JxBrowser.

GoogleMap Marker with Picture overlaid on Marker

I am coding a Googlemap Locator system showing your friends, similar to what Apple does with find my friends, However the markers on this system need to have the users profile images as per the visual below.
I am using http://gmap3.net/en/catalog/10-overlays/marker-41 jQuery plugin for the integration which is really just a simple way to integrate the googlemap, but has all the functionality of the API.
I have been reading the documentation for both the plugin and the Google API, however can't seem to pinpoint any way I can do this, I have seen this type of functionality before, so I'm sure it must be possible somehow. Any help on a way I can do this using gmap3 would be much appreciated.
Thanks in Advance
I found that I have a solution by using the shadow property for the back pointer and icon for the actual profile image. If that helps anyone else.

Extending Three20 photo gallery?

Hi I am using the Three20 SDK to create a gallery and it's all working great. I basically want to extend this so that when you see a large image there is an additional button on the bottom bar (by the > keys) so you can view some text about the image - I guess this is in principal the same as on the Facebook app where you can click the comments button and the photo flips over to reveal the comments.
Ideally a tutorial on this would be amazing but I guess that probably doesn't exist so I wanted to know the best way to do this was? Should I be adding new files into the Three20 directory to add this additional functionality? Or can I do it just in the one project where I need it?
Sorry to be vague, I'm a bit new to all this!
Generally, you shouldn't modify the three20 source code, unless it's a patch you're planning on submitting back to the three20 project.
If you need different behavior from TTPhotoViewController, you can subclass it and override any functions which doesn't fit your needs.
In your case, if you want to add a button to the toolbar, you should probably override (void)loadView, and replace the _toolbar with your own UIToolbar
Also, if you're only using the photo viewer from the entire three20 library, you will probably better off with a light weight solution, such as https://github.com/kirbyt/KTPhotoBrowser

how to embed audio in flex 3?

i want to play a sound when user click on the button in flex 3. My flex application will generate the images one by one. For each image, one sound should come in background. Any ideas? thanks in advance
You should be able to write something like this:
[Embed(source="myfile.mp3")]
[Bindable] //Not required. Just an example of using multiple meta tags.
public var soundCls:Class;
This will give you the ability to reference the file via the class name
The official documentation created by Adobe is quite ok.. you can find the link here. You will also find code samples.

Collapse/Expand Images

Ok so this is super basic. I just got done implementing the collapsible panel using the MS AJAX Toolkit and was wondering if anyone knew where to get the collapse and expand images that they use in their demo?
One would think these images would be distributed with the toolkit...if so - where are they found? Any recommendations for collapse/expand images in open-source-creative-commons domain?
you can set them using the properties
ExpandedImage="~/images/collapse.jpg"
CollapsedImage="~/images/expand.jpg"
the images can be found inside the toolkit
if you want to add your custom image you can get them from http://www.iconfinder.net
you can find them if you view the source code on the sample page... no they're not included, though. this is so you can provide your own images.
on a side note, have you tried implementing this functionality using jquery? :)
